Chapter 581: A Panicking Hidden Lurker

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

When Quan Zhen Sect received the news, Berserk Thundergod had already boldly led his people back to Thunderstorm City’s gate. At the same time, Berserk Heavenlaw’s players also received the system notification.

Berserk Thundergod was stunned when he received the news that Ironcliff Fortress had fallen.

Berserk Thundergod had complete confidence in the resilient Ironcliff Fortress and hence, returned to defend Thunderstorm City. He did not think that things would end up so unexpectedly.

“F*ck! Who from our guild is guarding it?” Berserk Thundergod had absolute confidence in Ironcliff Fortress’ 120-metre-tall city wall, so, at first thought, he did not think anyone could climb over the wall. Instead, he suspected that there was a betrayer within his subordinates.

Berserk Heavenlaw was stationed at the Ironcliff Fortress. A level 2 guild had three hundred people and only these three hundred people had the authority to move in and out of the Ironcliff Fortress freely. At the same time, these three hundred people were the most trusted group of people by Berserk Thundergod. If there was really a mole among the three hundred people, Berserk Thundergod’s loss would not just be the headquarters.

“There is no one there…” Berserk Heavenly Thunder replied.

They could see all three hundred of them here. Since all of them were here, no one could open the door for Quan Zhen Sect.

“Shit, could it be a system BUG? Stop talking, quickly return to the headquarters!” Berserk Thundergod panically said.

After the Ironcliff Fortress was taken down, once the three BOSSES’ souls were released, the Ironcliff Fortress will have a change of owner. Not only would Berserk Heavenlaw lose their encampment, their guild level will drop as a form of punishment too.

They were the only level 2 guild left with not a single guild at level 1. By then, they would definitely become a laughing stock. Berserk Heavenlaw’s morale would plunge and people will start leaving…

Seeing how Berserk Thundergod left so hurriedly with his subordinates, Hidden Lurker asked surprisingly, “Leader Thundergod, where are you going? Aren’t you going to stop Quan Zhen Sect?”

“F*ck! Quan Zhen Sect’s people are already online, but not at Berserk Thunder City!” Berserk Thundergod said impatiently.

Although the fall of the Ironcliff Fortress was not Hidden Lurker’s doing, it did happen because of him. Even if Berserk Thundergod had no intention of holding Hidden Lurker responsible, he was still upset with him.

“Oh? Really? They are not going to Thunderstorm City?” Hidden Lurker asked puzzledly.

Everyone in Thunderstorm City knew of the resilience of the Ironcliff Fortress. Hidden Lurker never thought that Quan Zhen Sect would attack Berserk Heavenlaw’s backdoor as it seemed impossible for 11 people to take down the Fortress which even the Dark Faction troops cannot defeat.

“They are at the Ironcliff Fortress!” Berserk Thundergod turned and left after speaking.

Hidden Lurker was confused, “Is Quan Zhen Sect insane?”

“What do we do now?” Nian Liuyun asked from a side. Since Quan Zhen Sect was not at Thunderstorm City, there was no point in defending it.

“Let’s go and see what’s going on…” Hidden Lurker was curious about Quan Zhen Sect’s unpredictable actions and hence, wanted to see what was going on. Hence, he arranged a few subordinates to block the Thunderstorm City’s gate, then brought Nian Liuyun and a few core experts to follow the rest.

After reaching the Ironcliff Fortress, Hidden Lurker’s goosebumps could be seen. The widely opened gate of the Ironcliff Fortress seemed to be mocking at their ignorance.

Nian Liuyun mumbled, “Did Quan Zhen Sect just take down the Ironcliff Fortress…”

“What rubbish!” Hidden Lurker almost had a heart attack after hearing what he said.

The Ironcliff Fortress was Berserk Heavenlaw’s lifeline. These happened because of Hidden Lurker. If Quan Zhen Sect did not drop any equipment for guilds to level up, Berserk Thundergod would vent his anger on United Alliance.

However, all these were lies by Hidden Lurker to cheat Berserk Thundergod. How was it possible for anything of that sort to be dropped? Hidden Lurker started to panic and suddenly felt that he had made a wrong move. He should not have implicated Berserk Heavenlaw, but it was too late to regret. Now that even Nian Liuyun could tell that the Ironcliff Fortress had been taken down, how could it be fake?

Just as Hidden Lurker scared himself outside the Ironcliff Fortress’ gate, Berserk Thundergod had led his people to the meeting room of the Sealing Soul.

Seeing that there were no Quan Zhen Sect people in the meeting room, Berserk Thundergod heaved a large sigh of relief.

“Thank god, these people did not attack the meeting room.” Berserk Thundergod was feeling lucky. At the same time, he ordered, “Search! Find those guys for me!”

“The gate at the other end of the Ironcliff Fortress has also been opened. They may have escaped to the Dead Spirit Swamp.” Center Red Heart reported after looking around from a bird’s eye view.

“Escaped?” Berserk Thundergod slammed his fist on the table and angrily said, “Some of you stay here at the encampment. The rest of you, chase!”

Although the Ironcliff Fortress was not occupied, Berserk Thundergod was taken aback. His attitude towards Quan Zhen Sect had soared from just to complete a quest to extreme animosity.

After all, the Ironcliff Fortress was Berserk Heavenlaw’s headquarters. Even if they did not do any damage, Berserk Thundergod could not tolerate how these few guys came to the Fortress to cause trouble twice and disregard Berserk Heavenlaw.

If Berserk Thundergod did not kill Quan Zhen Sect this time to establish his might, his reputation would be greatly undermined. How would he be able to lead his brothers?

The game’s customer service, 9527 loitered around a bit and returned to the monitoring team.

“Chief Hao, those people are online and even took down the Ironcliff Fortress.” Little Zhang quickly reported the progress upon seeing that 9527 had returned.

“Online? And even took down the Ironcliff Fortress?” 9527 heard his words and ran over in shock, quickly saying, “Retrieve the videos, let me take a look!”

Little Zhang skillfully retrieved the video.

9527 did not dare to slack off and watched the video in detail, frame by frame. When he saw that once the two large guilds of people left, Quan Zhen Sect instantly went online, the corner of his mouth twitched.

Going offline when being surrounded by so many enemies was a risky act.

Quan Zhen Sect went online at the perfect moment such that any earlier, they would have been spotted, and any later, the two large guilds would have returned. There was nothing special in the video. However, thinking about how Quan Zhen Sect people were offline and yet seemed as though they were watching the entire scene such that their timing was perfect, 9527 had a fearful feeling.

If it was not that the workers in the monitoring team had signed a confidential agreement and had legal responsibility, 9527 would have suspected that one of the workers alerted them.

The image changed to show Wang Yu climbing the Ironcliff Fortress. Initially, he dashed using [Flash]. Although 9527 could not tell which sect it belonged to, Qing Gong and [Flash] were both system skills, and could be explained by the game rules. When he saw the image of Wang Yu reaching the top of the wall, 9527 slammed the table and shouted, “Pause and rewind. Here it is!”
