“Uhhh...”
When Violet Orchid and Steel Dude was leading more than thirty members of Bauhinia League straight down the path, two Field Commanders from the Pharaoh Clan who was standing not far ahead of them finally realized that the mission Ron talked about was more difficult than they had thought after arguing incessantly. But once they thought about that person’s cold deadly gaze behind their backs and more than twenty clan members of the Holy Clan supporting them, they felt more confident and stood forward as they tried their best to greet them with a smile.
“Hi everyone, what brings you guys here today?”
Although they had people backing them up, their tone was still polite without a shred of disdain.
Steel Dude furrowed his brows as he feigned scratching his back in a bad mood while the people behind him was rendered speechless at his antics. Steel Dude despises the guy who greeted him meekly in his own mind. ‘What a pathetic Field Commander...’ But if he had shown any lack of respect toward him, he would have crushed his skull.
Although Steel Dude was someone who acted rashly, he was not the kind of person who habitually hits hypocrites. On the other hand, he has his fair share of insight for getting into fights. He stood in front of them, stretched his hand, and poked the guy who greeted him while talking in an overbearing tone.
“You must have some balls to stick your nose into my business! Hmph!”
When the two Field Commanders heard what Steel Dude said, their faces fell. ‘Is this guy some kind of street gangster to accuse us suddenly out of nowhere?’ They quickly shook their heads and explained, “I would never dare do such a thing, sir! My Clan is just here to handle some private matter, I am just afraid that you will be disturbed...”
“That’s enough! F*ck! I hate people who talk sarcastically, stop acting dumb in front of me! I know you understand fully well why we are here, so get lost or die!”
Steel Dude looked at the person in front of him with contempt and stopped him from blabbering by expressing their true intentions straightforwardly and said, “I am here for the female Aquamancer behind you guys, so scram if you know what’s best for you.”
Once Ron saw the scene before him, he understood that the two idiots from Pharaoh Clan could not be relied on and spoke loudly as he stepped forward.
“Hmph! So this is the great Bauhinia Clan. Such arrogance! You wish to harbor a ruthless killer’s girlfriend with just words? Hmph! Although we are both from famous Leagues, we from the Netherspirit’s Claw will not do such a thing to oppress the weak!”
After hearing that sarcastic tone, Violet Orchid who was standing behind Steel Dude furrowed her brows and focused her attention Ron who was leading more than twenty members from Holy Clan. Violet Orchid had already noticed him when they arrived, fully equipped with Dark Gold equipment, he must be the previous Holy Clan Field Commander that Qin Ruo mentioned. So that bewitching female player beside him must be the mistress, the two of them will be a troublesome opponent with her strange skill “Red Flare”. But right now with her little brother Fatale behind her, these people were not a threat anymore.
“Oh? Who is this ruthless killer you speak of?”
Violet Orchid stepped forward as she ignored the wary and hostile gazes upon her. She walked past them calmly and headed toward the female player’s corpse which was surrounded by a group of players.
“You know who it is we are talking about. Qin Ruo. It’s your party member who asked you to come save her.” After hearing Ron’s reply, Violet Orchid replied sarcastically in a clear voice.
“So you do know that your killer is Qin Ruo, I thought you had no idea who it is. Since the Netherspirit’s Claw is so strong, why don’t you go and find Qin Ruo himself? Hmph! Not only are you people are so skillful in killing other people’s girlfriend and guarding a girl’s corpse, you have no sense of shame at all that you call other people shameless. Hmph! What a bunch of cowards, is killing innocent players the way the Holy Clan shows their prowess?”
What Violet Orchid had said made the current actions taken by Bauhinia Clan seem reasonable and just, while at the same time mocking Holy Clan for seeking revenge against weak players when they could not find the main perpetrator. Thus, accusing the whole Holy Clan guilty for bullying the weak.
Ron and his mistress turn livid with rage.
Although they could stand the insults, the Holy Clan members behind them could not do the same.
“Screw you bitch, keep your mouth shut!”
As a member of a famous League, they were usually treated with respect, receive praises and envy of many other players. How could people with such pride as them tolerate an unknown female player from another league mocking them in their face? Furthermore, she was just a supporting class—Radiant Priest.
The person who cursed at Violent Orchid was Grieving Arrow. After being killed by Qin Ruo once and losing his equipment, he was one the players other than Ron and his mistress which strongly hated Qin Ruo. After learning from Ron that Violet Orchid was friends with Qin Ruo and her objective was to revive and save Qin Ruo’s girlfriend, he immediately exploded with rage.
Once he cursed at her, he immediately felt a killing intent from Bauhinia League. He then realized he had said his usual catchphrase without thinking it through.
“Shit!”
‘I am in deep trouble!’
His heart skipped a beat and then he noticed Steel Dude who was smiling at him wolfishly suddenly rushed forward with unbelievable speed and went through between the two Pharaoh Clan Field Commanders! His explosive speed was even faster than him Bowmasters who were known for their speed!
“This is just a misunderstanding! Nobody make a move!”
The situation had progressed beyond Ron and his mistress expectations. Once Ron noticed Steel Dude making a move, he instantly reacted and immediately ordered Bauhinia Clan and Holy Clan members behind him to not make a move.
More than thirty experienced top players and a Field Commander was not something their party of only 20+ players could handle. Not to mention having a conflict with the Bauhinia Clan was the worst possible outcome for them, if they had no other choice, he would not want to provoke a titan such as the Bauhinia Clan.
Unfortunately, he was too late.
Although Grieving Arrow had used “Flicker” before Steel Dude could approach him and summoned a clone, Steel Dude who had noticed there were two Grieving Arrows chose to attack the one on his left without hesitation. After he had equipped his Dark Gold gauntlets, he raised his big hand and attacked in a split second like an eagle spreading his talons and swooshed!
“Aaaah!”
After noticing Steel Dude grabbing Grieving Arrow’s head with his inhumanly large hands, the Holy Clan members ignored Ron’s orders and immediately prepared for battle.
They could not stand someone killing their Holy Clan member right under their noses!
However!
Although he was only grabbed, Grieving Arrow felt as if he was struck by lightning as he was stunned and could not make a single move. The moment Steel Dude grabbed him and he was unable to react, Steel Dude roared and exerted his full force!
He pressed him down with immense strength and Grieving Arrow was knocked down instantly as his head touched the floor first in a split second!
Boom!
Grieving Arrow’s head had exploded into a bloody mess.
A bright light emerged! The battle had ended!
The Holy Clan members which were stopped by Ron and his mistress was shocked and enraged, but they had no choice but to follow their orders and sheath their weapons as they could only helplessly look at Steel Dude’s cocky face as he proudly walked toward Violet Orchid and the female player’s corpse.
The hostile and furious gazes of the Holy Clan members did not make Steel Dude feel any sense of remorse.
Ron and his mistress, on the other hand, were paying attention toward Steel Dude and his pair dazzling gauntlets. Although they were aware that every Squad Leader of Bauhinia Clan had considerable strength, what just happened fully displayed his explosive strength, judgment ability, skill, incredible attack power, and unforeseen attack combo!
The two of them tried to compare if they had went against Steel Dude, but they were unable to determine the results. Even though he had only shown a brief moment of his abilities, they felt as if they were going against a mountain with unfathomable strength.
‘He is too strong!’
If it was one on one, they would not stand a chance. But two on one, they might stand a chance and it was only a possibility...
Now, Ron finally understood why his Clan Leader had made such a decision. To improve themselves in a League’s Clan is extremely difficult, thus they would have to resort to extreme measures!
But compared to Holy Clan, the people in Bauhinia League was being too carefree. After Steel Dude had stopped attacking, they had a look of disappointment on their face.
“Damn! He crushed someone’s head again.”
“Crazy Steel Dude really lives up to his reputation. Sheesh, the people from Holy Clan are cowards. Even after this, they could still hold themselves back. If it was me, I would have led a party and taken them on.”
“Yeah, it has been a long time since Steel Dude has used that move. Since Sister Orchid is here, they would have shown an awesome performance with their teamwork! Sigh, what a pity.”
After their mocking was heard by their opposing party, they could not help but feel anger.
“Hey, you guys really have nothing to do but to interfere with other people’s business. Let me give you a last word of advice, this is between us and Qin Ruo. You guys from Bauhinia Clan should stay out of this. You can protect her this time, but can you protect her forever?” Ron said while snickering after he noticed Violet Orchid preparing her Ressurection spell.
It was obvious that Ron had prepared to compromise in his words, but as he was saying these words, several hundred Pharaoh Clan members were approaching them in an encirclement from the Valley’s entrance.
