MMORPG: Martial Gamer

“This…”

Once his last teammate was finished off by Wang Yu, Chiat’s goosebumps appeared and his legs started trembling uncontrollably. He couldn’t even escape even if he wanted to as he fell to the ground on his butt.

In the game, dying was dying and at times, fear and death were two very different concepts.

In the face of a ruthless fella like Wang Yu, Chiat had already forgotten that he was in the game.

Wang Yu was not a person who enjoyed being ruthless. After all, Wang Yu was a martial artist, not a war soldier. He was instilled since young that as long as the opponent admitted defeat, he should always give the opponent a second chance.

There was no need to explain Chiat’s current state. With his butt on the sand, Wang Yu could tell that this fella was exceedingly terrified even if he couldn’t understand him.

Wang Yu did not fancy killing someone in such a state.

“Sigh, how useless…” Wang Yu shook his head as he no longer bothered about the petrified Chiat. He simply turned around to be alone again.

At this moment, an excited voice could be heard from far away.

“Uncle Bull! We found Karl!!”

Wang Yu lifted his head to see Vainglory jogging towards him.

Wang Yu was slightly surprised to hear Vainglory as he asked, “Oh? So fast? Where is he?”

Saga City was a small city and was not any bigger than Twilight City. However, it was still a main city and there were at least over a thousand NPC. It had merely been 10 minutes since the Quan Zhen Sect left so how did they find Karl so quickly?

“He… eh?”

Just when Vainglory was about to reply, he saw the dazed Chiat so he asked Wang Yu, “Who is this fella?”

“No idea!” Wang Yu shook his head, “I think he came to pick a fight…”

It was not a rare sight to see players picking a fight with an unfamiliar face, especially one with such good equipment.

The pitiful one was Fourteen Heavenly Maple who died twice but couldn’t even leave a mark on Wang Yu… He was actually labelled as a random player who tried to pick a fight with him.

“Oh… Then why did you leave him there? Uncle Bull is really a saint!” Seeing that Wang Yu did not know who Chiat was, Vainglory quickly kicked him to turn him into white light.

“Haha!”

Wang Yu was merely too lazy to kill someone who lost their motivation to fight so he wasn’t really a saint. Seeing how Vainglory killed Chiat so casually, he wasn’t too concerned as he continued to inquire more, “Why are the rest not back yet?”

“They are all busy in the city!” Vainglory replied pridefully.

“Busy with what?” Wang Yu asked.

“Ai… don’t mention about it!” Vainglory replied, “Karl was actually the previous City Lord of Saga City! However, he has been imprisoned by the Black Dragon Guild in Saga City’s prison! Fearless says we have to prepare to rob him out of prison so he got me to inform you first.”

“Inform? Why didn’t he just send me a message… You didn’t have to make this trip here at all?”

“Send a message?” Vainglory continued, “If he could do that, why would I be here?! You haven’t registered at Saga City so we are considered foreigners and we cannot send any messages through.”

“Really?” Wang Yu tried to pull open the guild chat.

The system replied, “I’m sorry, you are not in your server district…”

“Oh… This is interesting…” Wang Yu did not expect the game to have such restrictions.

Of course, such restrictions made sense.

One must know that the merging of data across the world meant a genuine unification of the entire world… Even so, they were still two different countries in reality.

The motive for doing this was to prevent people from exploiting the game to start some form of espionage. Registration in a foreign country was basically equivalent to attaining a visa to go abroad.

This was to safeguard the nation’s interest so it had to be implemented strictly.

“Since there is nothing here, I can help you guard the ship for a while. Go ahead into the city to register yourself,” Vainglory continued.

Communication was the key to every successful strategy. While Fearless and the others were busy preparing in the city, there was bound to be a massive operation later on. As the core of the Quan Zhen Sect, it was necessary and important that everyone could communicate with Wang Yu.

“En!”

Naturally, Wang Yu understood this so he did not waste any time as he rushed out of the beach.

…

Registration was not troublesome as a player simply needed to head to the safe zone to set up.

After entering the city, Wang Yu found the nearest resurrection point to register his account. The guild chat immediately had its restriction lifted.

Just when Wang Yu was about to leave the city, a familiar voice was heard not too far away, “Come, come, come, everyone, come take a look!”

Wang Yu looked over and saw Ming Du shouting while raising a massive board with Japanese words written all over it.

Japanese words originated from the Chinese as its influence grew across the world. In fact, even some Europeans would learn the Chinese characters. Even though Wang Yu couldn’t understand Japanese audio, he could make out the meaning of most words by looking at it.

The board had words that meant, “Recruitment! One hour, one gold! Those who want to earn some money, follow me…”

Ming Du learnt music so his voice was particularly loud and bright. By shouting his lungs out, many passing players surrounded him.

One gold an hour was not considered a high amount but it was definitely not low considering the relatively stable exchange rate in Japan.

However, the news of Chinese players killing the members of the Black Dragon Guild was already spreading like wildfire. With the exception of those from the Black Dragon Guild, almost all the players in Saga City had heard of this news.

Now that the Chinese were recruiting players at such a decent price, everyone naturally had to weigh the pros and cons of their decision…

Should they offend the Black Dragon Guild for just one gold? It simply did not seem like a wise choice so many players walked away when they saw that Ming Du was a Chinese.

At this moment, Ming Du suddenly stood up on a high ground as he swung his staff when he saw people leaving. Lightning bolts descended which killed a few people as he smiled once more and pointed to his board.

Everyone, “…”
