《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 590. Lonely Hidden Lurker
Advertisement
“Spring-rain Pavillion?”
Everyone’s eyes fell on Hidden Lurker.
Anyone who games, with the exception of a newbie like Wang Yu, would have heard of this big name. Everyone here was an expert and was naturally familiar with this name. A player at Berserk Thundergod’s calibre would have definitely heard of Hidden Lurker’s ugly past.
This was especially so for such a shady affair between Quan Zhen Sect and Spring-rain Pavillion. It was definitely an undisclosed secret within the inner circle of top-end experts.
Hearing the words of Ling Longmeng, Berserk Thundergod grew curious as he asked Hidden Lurker, “Aiya, is Solitary Ling really that pretty as described in the legends?”
“Cough…” Everyone from Quan Zhen Sect started coughing as Berserk Thundergod scratched his head in awkwardness. He went on to say in a serious tone, “I look down on b*stards who cheat others for equipment!”
At this moment, Hidden Lurker continued to quibble as he replied, “Boss Thundergod, do not listen to their nonsense. Quan Zhen Sect has always been despicable. Lending their helping hand to us is merely to make use of you. Think about it… There are over a few hundred thousand players out there. Do you really think we can get out just by staying in this broken house?”
Hidden Lurker was indeed talented in stirring up public sentiment by false statements. With a nudge like this, one could tell that Berserk Thundergod was starting to switch sides again.
Hidden Lurker was right because the port wasn’t big and so many people saw them coming this way. It was only a matter of time before they searched the house. He wasn’t certain that Quan Zhen Sect would be so nice to them… In the world of Internet, nobody can trust anybody…
“What a joke!” Fearless snubbed as he said, “How is that mob compared to Berserk Heavenlaw?”
“Far from being comparable…” Berserk Thundergod replied and he wasn’t exaggerating. Even though Dead Spirit City had a huge population, they didn’t have many large guilds. They were like a sheet of loose sand and in every main city, there were only so many top-end players. On the other hand, those that joined Berserk Heavenlaw had to be an elite in their own ways.

“How is this place compared to Thunderstorm City’s forest?”
“Comparatively, this place is easier to guard but harder to attack.” Berserk Thundergod answered.
Thunderstorm City’s forest might be suited to conceal oneself, but the area was broad. Once the numbers exceeded a quota, it would be extremely hard to defend unless they had the concealing skills like the Quan Zhen Sect’s players had.
In contrast, this wooden house only had a one-metre wide entrance. One Guardian would be enough to guard the entrance. A location like this could definitely be regarded as the perfect location to defend.
Of course, the worn-out condition of the small wooden house was not taken into consideration. With the system’s godly rules in place, no matter how tattered this house was, players wouldn’t be able to destroy it.
“Even under those circumstances, you Berserk Heavenlaw cannot even deal with us, let alone this flock of chickens!” Fearless’ words were powerful enough to clear any remaining doubts in Berserk Thundergod’s heart.
Following that, Fearless continued, “If this is really a quest, get him to share with you!”
“You, you!” Hidden Lurker was left speechless for a while before pointing at Fearless as he responded, “This is my personal quest!”
“Boss Hidden Lurker, you can still display your personal quest for us to see right?”
Berserk Thundergod saw the way Hidden Lurker was acting which was why he believed that Fearless was speaking the truth. At the same time, everyone from Berserk Heavenlaw pointed their weapons at the players from United Alliance. They were all prepared to attack if there was any change in attitude.
After all, being cheated by someone was not a good feeling. If one was cheated by his lady, there was minimally still the good memories. However, the poor Berserk Thundergod was actually duped by a bunch of men like Hidden Lurker. They even suffered serious consequences such as losing the majority of their men. The worst thing was that they were dragged into this faction war which could result in the disbanding of their guild and the risk of losing Ironcliff Fortress.

All this was because of Hidden Lurker so one could imagine the anger in Berserk Thundergod’s heart.
Nian Liuyun read the situation as he stood forward to protect Hidden Lurker and the seven to eight experts from United Alliance. This divided the limited space into two.
“Boss Thundergod, no one can be certain of what is the truth now. Doing this now isn’t good for any of us right?” Nian Liuyun raised his fist.
Berserk Heavenlaw’s players were so frightened they started retreating.
These fellas were extremely aware of Nian Liuyun’s ability. They knew how he could fight ten men at once without breaking a sweat. Moreover, Magicians specialised in long-range attacks. In such a constrained place, a Pugilist definitely had the advantage. Standing near him would only mean quicker death.
An infuriated Berserk Heavenly Thunder shouted, “Shut up with your b*llshit! No one is certain of the truth? The truth is that this b*stard Hidden Lurker dragged all our brothers into this deep mess just to deal with his old rivalry!”
“F*ck all these nonsense! I have already paid you guys!” Hidden Lurker argued with the courage of his conviction.
“Haha, Brother Heavenly Thunder is wrong. He didn’t do it so that he could deal with us. He did it for this item.” Fearless laughed as he instructed Wang Yu to take out the Atlanta’s Key.
“What is this?” Berserk Thundergod asked Wang Yu.
Wang Yu casually opened up the display of the item.
This time, the players from United Alliance were the shocked ones, “Atlanta’s Key? Isn’t this item… Boss, didn’t you say we failed the quest? You even lie to your own brothers?”
Atlanta was a large scale guild quest. Back then, United Alliance dropped a level just to do this quest and eventually, they even believed that they failed the quest. However, the reward of the quest actually appeared here. Nobody knew what happened exactly, but they knew they were cheated by Hidden Lurker too.
It was pretty common for people to keep items for one’s self-interest. However, as a leader of these men, leading them to steal other people’s items would be called being capable. Cheating his own men and sending his own men to death and then secretly keeping the treasure was called unloyal.
In the world of gaming, those in a guild respect justice and loyalty. As their leader, Hidden Lurker’s actions were certainly not something any player could tolerate.
“F*ck! I will never recognise rubbish like that as a leader! F*ck you!” The players from United Alliance started cursing at Hidden Lurker as they slowly moved towards Berserk Heavenlaw’s side. In just a few seconds, Nian Liuyun was the only person left standing beside Hidden Lurker.
“You even keep this from me?” A disappointed Nian Liuyun looked at Hidden Lurker, “I’ve always believed that you’re a man with big aspiration. I can tolerate you making use of my fans to recruit, but you actually lied to us!!”
“Liuyun, do not listen to what those despicable men are saying.” Nian Liuyun was only simple-minded but Hidden Lurker kept thinking he was an idiot so he continued to convince him.
“Tsk!” Nian Liuyun grunted as he left the broken door.
Everyone was dumbfounded as Ming Du made a big fuss, “Aiya, I really cannot tell Boss Hidden Lurker is still so nice to him… I doubt your relationship with him is simple right? No wonder you can give up on all the beautiful girls over the years.”
Hidden Lurker glared at Ming Du, but Ming Du waved his staff and said, “Why? You dare to glare at me?”
Fearless extended his arm to stop Ming Du as before laughing, “Old Li, just keep your words to yourself. Let them settle their own problem. We will settle our bill with him in the future.” After saying that, Fearless looked at Berserk Thundergod and the other players from United Alliance.

Old Version - The First Magician
INDEFINITE HIATUS I always seem to make these too long when I ask for peoples opinions so I’m not gonna try an exciting description anymore but instead just give you an idea of what to expect. First off, this is my 2nd attempt at a story but my foundation for this one is much better than the 1st already and I see this going much further and so far its coming together much faster and easier. So please excuse me if things are not up to publishing standards. Also I tend to confuse your, you’re and so on so sorry to people that triggers ahead of time. The First Magician follows the story of 15 year old Alex in a post apocalyptic rpg-ish world in the near future. Earth was transformed, monsters appeared and people began being able to use Ki but could not figure out how to use magic. Alex ends up becoming the first human able to use magic through a series of events and sets in motion events that will change the very future of the human race. He will be somewhat OP simply because he is the only human (at least to start, who knows about later?) who is able to use mana. Many classic RPG elements have been removed. I didn’t want the story to be like all of the other lit rpg stories on RRL but it also makes the writing easier for me hence the watering down of rpg elements. UPDATES: I am doing this to relieve stress and for fun so I will release chapters when I can. So far though ive managed to keep up with 2 most days. CONTENT WARNINGS: There will be some light language but it won't be insane. I might have some gore later on but am unsure and the same for the sexual content. Sexual content isn't super likely as I doubt I can write it well but I put the tag so people cant yell about it if I add some in the future but forgot to add the tag. COVER ART: Yes it is from the anime Log Horizon. It is a good representation of what earth looks like despite it not being many years in the future. DISCORD: https://discord.gg/s6V3hGV

A Solitary God In A Dark Multiverse
Eons ago a devastating and apocalyptic battle took place that rocked every dark and loathsome corner of the multiverse. In the aftermath of the battle, deities, demon-lords, old ones, arch-devils, angel kings and archon queens, not to mention other cosmically powerful entities were totally obliterated. Despite this history-changing occurrence, life found a way and life went on in a godless multiverse for an unimaginable length of time. And in time, even the mightiest and most popular gods were nearly forgotten. But one day, in a universe unlike our own, an altogether fantastic and magical universe, a deity is born. A new deity. A deity of a nebulous morality. Join the aforementioned morally unbound deity as he embarks on a quest to gain power, worshippers, and glory. This story features a deity as its protagonist, but it's a deity who starts off alone in a dark and harsh multiverse. He needs worshippers to grow in power and has to earn his victories intelligently. He seeks to gain worshippers, discover the truth behind his genesis, and become the deity he is meant to be. He is a protagonist who will hurt others, and he's unafraid to kill and destroy what he can't control. This is his story. If lore intrigues you, consider dropping by the World Anvil! It is chock full of juicy lore, and history, and it is slowly expanding as I add new articles to it. It is a place for me to write out the major details and introduce readers to the grander complexities that the story doesn't always let me write out in detail.
