Chapter 123: How to Blend In

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A vast sea of clouds came into view.

William reached the cliff that separated the mountains from the sea. He gazed at the boundless sea and took a deep breath. The scenery made him look like a banished immortal who had descended into the human world.

“Something is wrong…” William glanced at his own army and suddenly muttered to himself.

“Master, what do you want to talk about? Why have we come here?” Lautner looked down the mountain and gulped.

The mountain was 2000 to 3000 meters tall, not very high. But considering his current physique, if he fell, he would certainly die…

Why would he think about this? He felt that William was not normal today. What if William was planning to push him down the mountain?

“Ah! It’s nothing. I just wanted to see the sea and water…” William smiled. He seemed troubled.

He did not care about discomfort, as he sat on the mountain top. He asked, “Did an attack happen on a small town near the border of the Iron Nation?”

“Yes. That seems to be the case. The cause of it is also very strange…”

“Speak!”

Lautner stroked his slightly p.r.i.c.kly and long beard. He pulled off a strand and flashed a painful smile. “It is said that a goat went missing from the military camp in the Black Lava Nation. It was thought that a hunter from the Iron Nation took it away.

“Hence, at night, the Black Lava Nation sent an army of 1000 to destroy an entire town. The Iron Nation tried to fight back…”

“Tsk tsk, what an impressive plan.” William rubbed his chin. He had not expected the Iron Nation to be so scheming and dare to attack.

That was right.

It was the Iron Nation who had attacked a small town in their own territory.

They planned to use this as an excuse, and send their troops to the Black Lava Nation.

Furthermore, the Crown Prince of the Black Lava Nation was beyond reasoning. It would appear as clearly his fault. This affected his nightlife, and he could not even s.h.i.+ft the blame to someone else.

But the current City of Dawn had many people, and it was abundant in both money and grains. The military was also very strong. It was not a force that a small town at the border could rival with.

Furthermore, there was resentment and hate between the Iron Nation and the Black Lava Nation. William could not understand. Did the Iron Nation not fear that he would take the opportunity to help the Black Lava Nation?

Or should they sit this one out and reap the spoils later?

“Master, what do you think?” Lautner was well aware of the tense situation caused by these two human nations. The City of Dawn could not just watch one of them grow stronger, or let one of them eliminate the other.

Either case would not be beneficial for the City of Dawn.

But there was one fact that William had to admit. City of Dawn could not send its troops out.

Currently, the City of Dawn acted as a neutral party. It was fine if he attacked the Iron Nation near their territory, or stole their military fortress.

But entering the human nation meant declaring war. They would no longer be neutral. They would have to join either the darkness or the light.

The human nations were all in the Bright Camp.

If the nations fought, the outcome, be it elimination or looting, didn’t matter to the empires that they had pledged loyalty to. They wouldn’t worry much about it as long as a large-scale destruction did not occur. The Temple of Light would not interfere either.

But if a neutral territory, like the City of Dawn, interfered in a battle between human nations, it would not be an internal battle anymore. It would morph into a battle between camps.

It could be said that the human nations had parents…

But neutral Lords like William had no one taking care of them…

Not unless William announced their loyalty to a human empire…

Of course, such a pledge would bring the benefits a.s.sociated with. Like a ringmaster above the troops, he could casually send them out…

But there were drawbacks a.s.sociated with the move too. Various sources of pressure, such as annual taxes, turnover of slaves, and providing treasures. They would lose their freedom.

“But if they think that I am helpless, they underestimate me too much. I have done my preparations!” William narrowed his eyes. He took out the magic transmission scroll and issued a piece of information to the messenger in the Mercenary Guild, Roderick. He wanted to meet him at their old place.

After a short while,

Roderick replied. “Where is the old place?”

“The meeting hall. The place where you held back the darkness messenger and allowed him to attack the Temple Messenger.”

“……” Roderick instantly remembered. He replied with 12 dots.

At the Mercenary Guild in the Black Lava Nation,

As a mercenary messenger in the southeast area, Roderick had great power.

He was the head of this area. His position was higher than that of the other messengers in the city. He sat on his bed and patted the naked lady beside him.

Pat pat pat.

The wife of a mercenary messenger in the Black Lava palace rubbed her b.u.t.tocks. She got up in a captivating manner, and she slowly put on her stockings, a skirt, and a pair of heels. Then, she jogged away…

The corners of Roderick’s lips twitched. He could sense that he would have to pay a price for sleeping with the wife of his subordinate.

“Trying to be more greedy?” Roderick understood that if the two human nations fought, the mercenary troops would be the main force in the war.

The messengers of the Mercenary Guild in the palace had dozens of mercenary troops under them. As the middleman between the aristocrats and the mercenary troops, he could obtain a lot of money…

After all, the more urgency there was in the war, the more missions would appear for the mercenary soldiers. He would also be able to obtain more money.

Of course, Roderick knew about this. Thus, when the wives of his subordinates approached him, he could not reject them…

“The Dragon Slayer, the Lord of the Crown Prince, the prince of the Blackleaf Elves. What is William trying to do? It can’t be that he wants to partic.i.p.ate in the battle of the human nations. Could it be…” Roderick widened his eyes, as if he had realized something. He suddenly stood up, still being naked.

His p.e.n.i.s shook, as if it couldn’t believe it too. It even started to bleed…

But Roderick furrowed his eyebrows and thought deeply about it. If William was the one doing it, there should be no problems.

According to the rules of the Mercenary Guild,

Any mercenary team, as long as they received a mission, could freely partic.i.p.ate in the war with human nations.

“s.h.i.+t. If you want to convince me, you have to promise me benefits!” Roderick got dressed and left with a perverted smile on his face.

The war of the two nations had only just begun. It was still in its beginning phase and the actual fighting had not started yet.

Thus, the players could only talk about the battle at the borders. After all, a large majority of them had not become professionals…

But all players were not the same…

There would be players who exerted themselves, and their levels rapidly increased. They even upgraded their secret books and skills.

At that moment, dozens of players had gathered together in the Black Lava Palace. They belonged to the Prosperity Millennium Club and had become beginner level professionals. They even had a suit of blue equipment.

There was no doubt. They were able to blend in so well as their subsidiary club had raised funds. Fans spent many silver coins on their idols. It would help the professional players save time and effort in leveling up. Furthermore, they would have no need to get into conflicts for money.

The leader of the Prosperity Millennium Club, Forever Alone, stood alone at the entrance of the Mercenary Guild. He seemed to be thinking for a long time. He had decided on the double sword warrior as his main occupation and had not chosen his sub-occupation yet.

According to his plan, if he could not find a hidden sub-occupation, he would wait until his attribute awakened at level 40. Then, he would choose a complementary magic occupation.

But it was difficult as a lonely level 12 player. He contemplated whether he should join a Mercenary Guild, or establish his own Mercenary Guild.

“D*mn! No matter what I decide, it feels like I will lose out.” He suddenly shouted.

When the other members saw their leader swear, they kept quiet. No one knew why their lead coach insisted on coming to the Black Lava Nation. Now, they could only drool over the treatment of the Dawn Mercenary Team…

“Forget it. Let’s establish a mercenary team and wait. We shall complete some missions and increase our fame. Then, even if the mercenary team disbands, we can rely on a bigger mercenary team.” Forever Alone sighed. If he had not come to the human nation, he would not have known how terrible the NPCs were…

When he was new to the game, he had been beaten up by NPCs even after doing a mission. Now, even though he had faced many difficulties and obtained a set of blue equipment, the NPCs still fiercely glared at him. He was under a lot of pressure…

“Yes, leader~”

“Leader, you are brilliant!”

“What a bootlicker…”

“D*mn, who are you scolding?”
