《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 1106. Mystery Pavilion Who Waited For Opportunities
Advertisement
“Leave anyone out?” Green Devil thought for a little and said, “It can’t be. There are only those few people in Thousand Waves Palace. They got ambushed by us when they just got the Black Decree, and we made sure to kill everyone there. How could there be a fish that escaped the net?”
“Oh?” Mystery Observer raised his brows and said, “Unless the Black Decree is within our guild?”
Since it was a 100% dropped equipment, if it was not with Thousand Waves Palace’s players, it would be with one of the players from Mystery Pavilion. It was not impossible for such a big guild to have a spy.
Though it was just a casual comment, it scared Green Devil quite a bit and he explained immediately, “That’s impossible. The people who ambushed Thousand Waves Palace were our experienced players. Moreover, guilds like Thousand Waves Palace would not have had the ability to bribe our men!”
“Mhm, you’re right!” Mystery Observer nodded.
It took skills to bribe people into betraying their own guild. It was not purely about following the richest, but about following the most powerful. If not, if they got exposed, the person who got bribed and the guild who bribed would be in a lot of trouble.
In >, the welfare that big guilds gave was close to the middle class in real life, and if small guilds wanted to bribe, they would only be able to do so if they had the ability to pay for the rest of the life of the players that they were bribing.
The Black Decree was something that guilds in Salat City had been fighting for for the longest time. And Mystery Pavilion was the only big guild in Salat City. Insignificant players like Thousand Waves Palace would not have a capability to bribe any of Mystery Pavilion’s players at all.
“Then how could the Black Decree go missing? Recall again, were there any accidents?”

After thinking for a bit, Mystery Observer asked.
“Accidents?” Green Devil thought and his expression changed, “There was one incident though. There was an Archer who wanted to run away, but she didn’t manage to in the end, because we chased her till Twilight City and killed her.”
“The Black Decree was not with her?” Mystery Observer asked.
“No…” Green Devil shook his head and continued, “When we killed that girl, there was an incident that happened. We saw the City Lord of Twilight City.”
“Twilight City’s City Lord?”
Mystery Observer heard what was said and almost lost his soul, “That legendary Iron Bull?”
“Yes, him!” When “the legendary Iron Bull” was mentioned, Green Devil smirked and said with disdain, “What bullshit legendary player, he’s just a coward. He didn’t dare to do anything when we killed that girl.”
“This… can’t be.”
After hearing what Green Devil said, Mystery Observer exclaimed, “What I’ve heard was that he made the thousands of players from Sanguine Alliance listen to him. How could he be a coward? Maybe you met a fake Iron Bull?”
Wang Yu was someone extremely well known. In the game, the strongest were the most popular. For someone with such a high level of recognisability, he definitely would have a certain level of skills. If he could defeat ten thousand players by himself, ten players would not be a problem either. How could he be a coward?
“F*ck…”
After hearing what Mystery Observer said, Green Devil agreed too and continued, “I wouldn’t know if he was real or fake, but he definitely did not stop us from what we were doing.”
“Then did he interact with the girl?” Mystery Observer asked.
“This…” Green Devil frowned and replied, “The guy called Iron Bull helped the girl up.”
“That’s right!” after listening to up to this point, Mystery Observer stabbed his dagger into the table and said, “She must have given the Black Decree to him.”

“Oh? Then what should we do now?” Green Devil started panicking the moment Mystery Observer finished speaking.
No matter that Iron Bull was real or fake, Twilight City was not their home ground and the fact that Wang Yu was loitering around level 70 training area, his abilities would not be weak too. Even if Wang Yu was insignificant, as Dark Faction’s players, they would not dare to go loiter in Twilight City either.
Ever since the game started operating, the Dusk Mountain Range had been separated by the bright and the dark faction. Though Twilight City was counted as neutral, the Dark Faction players would not dare to cross the boundaries.
“Haha.” Mystery Observer laughed regardless and said, “We don’t have to worry about this. We just have to know who has the pass, because that thing can only be used in Salat City.”
“But we can’t use it if we don’t get it back.” Green Devil was confused.
“Don’t worry!” Mystery Observer said while smiling, “Those girls at Thousand Waves Palace would be even more worried than us. They would definitely think of a way to get it.”
“Get the token? The leader of Thousand Waves Palace is trapped by our men right now, do we have to let her out then?” Green Devil asked.
“Nope!”
Mystery Observer shook his head and said, “Though Thousand Waves Palace is not big, it is not small either. It was only a small part of them that got ambushed by us. They would not need a leader to lead them to steal stuff from Twilight City, would they?”
“So what you mean is?”
“Very simple!” Mystery Observer said calmly, “There are only two ways to deliver things between the factions across a main city. The first is to arrange a meetup, and the other method is to mail it. They just need to have people standing by the mail and secure the only passageway between Salat City and Twilight City, which is the Golden Water Bridge.”
“Our leader is brilliant indeed!” Green Devil praised, “I will bring someone to secure the Golden Water Bridge then.”
“Hehe!” Mystery Observer smiled and continued, “Don’t make any mistakes this time around.”
Green Devil patted on his chest and guaranteed, “Don’t worry, boss. I will definitely not let those group of amateurs cross the bridge. Everyone, follow me!”
After saying that, Green Devil brought his men and walked out of the office.
Seeing Green Devil’s back view, Mystery Observer picked up the dagger on the table and said to the air, “Unfathomable, you follow him.”
Right afterwards, a voice replied, “Why? Are you suspecting Green Devil?”
“Not that.” Mystery Observer replied, “This fella is too careless. I’m scared that he will make a mistake again.”
…
Though Salat City and Twilight City were neighbours, it was Wang Yu’s first time visiting this place.
In the background story, the end of the battle between the god and the devil was peaceful.
The Dark Faction was forced to the poorer side of the land by the Light Faction, but no matter how poor was the land, it was still much better than the hell that devils lived in.
Hence, both sides ended with sort of a victory on their sides and it was a more satisfactory ending.
As the city at the edge of the Dark Faction, Salat City was similar to Thunderstorm City’s Ironcliff Fortress, both were strategic war locations. Due to the fact that the mountain range had the shape of a bow, Salat City was built according to the shape of the valley which lay in the middle of two mountains.

When Plush comes to Shove
An: So the last synopsis wasn’t really all that good, it was just some mumbo jumbo with no actual point to it so I decided to make a new one that’s a bit more accurate. Leo Lush, just your average everyday (slightly chubby) schmuck, or at least he would be if he didn’t carry around a stuffed toy everywhere he went.I mean, he was a man who could read the atmosphere a bit so put it away in his bag whenever having a stuffed toy out would be rude but other than that he brought it with him all the time, it was a memento from his girlfriend who had died three years ago and keeping it close made him feel better. That’s also why his classmates gave him the nickname “Plush”, though that's neither here nor there. One day at the train station he’d lost his dearest stuffed toy, one of his classmates found it and lobbed it towards him, something that they’d already done many times before, but this time something went wrong and Leo found himself falling in front of the train due to the force of the throw. Now follow Leo as the spirit that developed in his stuffed toy and killed him forces his ghost into another world to possess a different stuffed toy. He doesn’t know much about the world or why he’s there but what he does know is that according to a magic book his girlfriend was also sent to this very world when she died in a plane accident three years ago. An: For those who want to know a bit more about what kind of story this will be: I want it to be a chill feel-good story and stay as far away from those despair-fest stories as possible (No offense to people who enjoy them, I’m just not one of you)Let me make something clear; I’m not writing this story with hope of it becoming really top tier among RRL (Though it did get above rank 500 once which I’m still very proud of even though it’s gone back down to ~850 at the time of writing this) I just want to write a story that I would enjoy reading, that’s why I’ll be mostly skipping over a lot of the parts that I skip when I read other stories, such as stats, the exact value of money and other such precise statistics that no one(as far as I’m aware) really cares about all that much. Just feels like a lot of effort for something superfluous.There’s a single exception and that’s one of the battles, it’s not a despair-fest or anything but it’s got a different feel than the rest of the story due to me being in a funky mood while I was writing it.
