Chapter 1365: Sanguine Warflag As Bait

For the Sanguine Alliance, this was no trivial matter. This was because they had no other formidable opponents other than the Quan Zhen Sect.

At this critical juncture, the conclusion that Sanguine Stormbringer came to was similar to what many others thought. Furthermore, Twilight City was even in a lockdown. Was it not that Quan Zhen Sect was trying to hide something?

The players from Sanguine Alliance started having post-traumatic flashbacks to the time that they were dominated by the Quan Zhen Sect…

In just a few short minutes, the Sanguine Alliance had lost two of their elders mysteriously. This situation had caused pandemonium within the ranks of the guild. Even if Sanguine Warflag came out to personally address the rumor, not many would fully trust his words because he might not provide the full picture to prevent further fearmongering.

The a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch had really leveraged the fearsome reputation of Quan Zhen Sect to gain the upper hand in this conflict.

Seeing that his subordinates were in a state of panic, Sanguine Warflag was at a loss and cried, “Boss Fearless, you cannot just sit around and watch… They are all suspecting that the Quan Zhen Sect is the culprit. If this goes on, my players from Sanguine Alliance might abandon me.”

“Oh…” Fearless waved his concern away, “Then let them be!”

“Let them go?” Sanguine Warflag was taken aback momentarily but he replied, “Are you afraid that we will be too obvious as a target?”

After that, the remaining Guardians beside Sanguine Warflag received the new orders and left the scene. There was only a single player from Sanguine Alliance that accompanied the players from Quan Zhen Sect on the street.

“Let’s make a move too!” Fearless instructed the Quan Zhen Sect to follow suit after the other players from Sanguine Alliance had departed.

“What? What do you mean by this boss?” Sanguine Warflag was completely dismayed by Fearless’s instructions.

Although they did not have much interaction between the two of them, Sanguine Warflag thought that Fearless was not a man without morals. Why was he doing this at this time?

After all, a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch was a formidable force. If the Quan Zhen Sect did not protect him, Sanguine Warflag would meet his end soon enough.

Sanguine Stormbringer’s death would only cause unrest within the guild but the death of Sanguine Warflag was far more serious. It could cause players to actively leave the guild… The frightening reputation of the Quan Zhen Sect was not to be underestimated.

“What do I mean? I am not hinting at anything!” Fearless simply answered. “You take care of yourself! Let’s go!”

Fearless turned around and left the scene.

Although the players from Quan Zhen Sect did not fully grasp Fearless’s intentions, they still obeyed his command and scattered. Only w.a.n.g Yu was left behind as he probed Fearless, “Are we really going to leave him in the lurch?”

“Leave him! What has the conflict between a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch and Sanguine Alliance got to do with us!” Fearless furrowed his brows before replying, “You better keep your distance as well!”

“But!” w.a.n.g Yu was about to counter when he suddenly received a private message from Fearless, “Quick, don’t ask anymore. Leave this place as soon as possible!”

After spending so much time with Fearless, w.a.n.g Yu knew the tricks that this man had up his sleeves. He a.s.sumed that this was just another scheme of his and just nodded helplessly in agreement, “Alright!”

w.a.n.g Yu leaped to a nearby roof and ran into the distance.

As the Quan Zhen Sect quickly departed, there was only a single lonely man left on the street. Sanguine Warflag was almost in tears as his cursed Fearless in his heart. He was regretful that he had wrongly placed his faith in the Quan Zhen Sect.

At this moment, in an alley not far away, an a.s.sa.s.sin from a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch informed their guild chat channel, “That b*stard Sanguine Warflag is alone!”

“Alone? That brat is alone? Are you sure you got the right person?” Southern Heaven Mighty G.o.d probed.

Now that the a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch was systematically killing off the higher echelons of Sanguine Alliance, it was simply unthinkable that Sanguine Warflag would be left unprotected. Was this player sick in the mind…

“I am sure!” The a.s.sa.s.sin replied. “I saw with my own eyes all his Guardians had left the scene. He is now at the entrance of the bar.”

Scarless continued, “It is not critical whether or not the other players of Sanguine Alliance are around. What is more important is Iron Bull!”

All the players from a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch were a.s.sa.s.sins. Although they did not pose much threat to Guardians, in a similar way, Guardians could not match up to an a.s.sa.s.sin in movement speed. Since their target was solely Sanguine Warflag, without the Guardians from Sanguine Alliance, their main concern was w.a.n.g Yu.

a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch had once confronted w.a.n.g Yu before and they knew the disparity in strength between them.

“He also left!” the a.s.sa.s.sin answered.

“Could he be in ambush somewhere?” Southern Heaven Mighty G.o.d was afraid of a potential plot against them.

“Eh?”

As Southern Heaven Mighty G.o.d continued, Scarless saw a familiar figure that drifted across the air and reconfirmed in the guild chat, “There is no ambush. I just saw him heading towards the South City!”

At this instant, the a.s.sa.s.sin that was watching Sanguine Warflag cried out, “Quick, come over, Sanguine Warflag is about to make his escape!”

“Follow him, don’t let him run!”

Upon hearing the news, Scarless and Southern Heaven Mighty G.o.d began to panic.

They were fired up to know that their sworn enemy was almost in their grasp. It was because of him that the a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch had suffered such a terrible loss. They not only had to hide but they had lost gold coins and their lives as a result of his betrayal.

How could they miss this prime opportunity for revenge? Sanguine Warflag was the guild leader of a guild with several hundred thousand players. If they missed their chance, there was no second chance.

Was it critical to know if there was an ambush? Obviously not… a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch was also a top-tier force. Their strength was not any weaker than the Quan Zhen Sect. Furthermore, Scarless herself was a martial artist and her abilities far outstripped the common player. This was coupled with their superior movement skills as a.s.sa.s.sins to be able to retreat at will. They had absolute confidence in their ability to a.s.sa.s.sinate their target.

The only person that a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch was afraid of was w.a.n.g Yu. Without him around, they had no other concerns. Every single player from a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch headed towards the coordinates of Sanguine Warflag.

…

Sanguine Warflag received Fearless’s message at this moment, “Old Flag, don’t be afraid. We are protecting you from the dark. Head towards the City Lord Mansion! Don’t turn your head! The players from a.s.sa.s.sin Monarch will be coming towards you soon!”

“F*ck!”

As soon as Sanguine Warflag received Fearless’ updates, he immediately understood his intentions and answered in a depressed tone, “Boss Fearless, how could you use me as bait?”

Fearless replied helplessly, “There was no other way around this; there was no juicier target other than you…”

“…” Sanguine Warflag was speechless for a few moments, “I would have been bolder to play the role of the bait if there were at least a few others protecting me.”

“No way!” Fearless countered, “If there were more people there, the enemy might not fall into the trap.”

“But I am scared alone…” Sanguine Warflag whimpered tragically. He felt a sense of deja vu as he said those words.
