Chapter 488: Silly Players, Twists and Turns, the Tyc.o.o.n’s Smile (2)


Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation


By his side, there was a masked woman with an exceptional figure.


He paused, looking at the extraordinary aura these two exuded. They were probably some n.o.ble natives, weren’t they?


Could it be that while the heavens closed one door for him, they opened a window to wealth?


Who knows, they might get some high-paying tasks from these two.


With this thought in mind, the scruffy-bearded player’s face instantly broke into a smile, and he walked over with his companions.


“Respected sir, may 1 inquire what brings you here? Is there anything we can a.s.sist you with?”


Ji Chen looked at them with surprise.


“Respected sir?”


After some contemplation, a hint of amus.e.m.e.nt appeared on his face.


Could these four casual players have mistaken him for a native?


Seeing the bemus.e.m.e.nt on Ji Chen’s face, the scruffy-bearded player also realized his mistake.


He raised an eyebrow and awkwardly said, “Brother, you guys are players too, aren’t you? You should have told me earlier. Now 1 feel awkward.”


“What brings you here…” He suddenly realized, winking slyly. “Oh, 1 see, you’re here because of that bounty too, aren’t you?”


“Too?”


Ji Chen’s mind stirred.


Seeing that Ji Chen remained silent, the scruffy-bearded player thought he might be wary of them s.n.a.t.c.hing his bounty target. He immediately shook his head with an astonished expression.


“Brother, we’ve already decided not to pursue that bounty.”


“…Why?”


“Ah, you probably don’t know what the player named Ji Chen has accomplished here. According to the descriptions from the local natives, he has done something earth-shattering.”


The scruffy-bearded player wore a look of amazement. “In any case, based on the accounts of the natives here, he’s definitely not someone we ordinary players can handle.”


“What do you mean?”


“One person took out thousands of soldiers from the Ba.s.s Kingdom. Do you know what that means? It’s said that he also has a Tier-5 sea clan army under his command. With that kind of power, not even a hundred players combined could defeat him.


Moreover, we’re just one step away from the ocean here. He can escape into the sea at any time. If we can’t take him down in one go, we’ll have to be on guard against this fearsome fellow all the time. Just thinking about it gives me a headache.”


Having said that, the scruffy-bearded player adopted a somewhat paternal tone, emphasizing his point.


“So, 1 advise you not to get involved in this matter either. It’s too complicated, and you won’t be able to handle it. Those five million gold coins and one million rare resources might seem tempting, but they’re not that easy to obtain.


Besides, that player called Ji Chen probably already knows that the Ba.s.s Kingdom has issued a bounty for him. Who knows, he might be hiding in some corner of this city right now, ready to unleash chaos.


Ji Chen looked at him with slight surprise.


He hadn’t expected this guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes to have such clear thinking and understanding.


Indeed, one of the most intimidating aspects of Ji Chen was the certainty that he could escape safely into the sea.


This confidence came from his current level 40 and legendary cla.s.s, which made him the undisputed king of the sea.


Even the steel fleet that could destroy an entire city was incredibly vulnerable in the face of the mighty waves and vast ocean. Just one ma.s.sive wave could deal a devastating blow to them.


In the sea, he was an unchallenged ruler.


The entire ocean was his stronghold!


The scruffy-bearded player, observing Ji Chen’s silent contemplation, couldn’t help but ask with curiosity, “Brother, since we’ve crossed paths, it must be fate. What’s your forum username? Let’s add each other as friends; maybe we can cooperate in the future.”


“My forum username is ‘Islander.’”


“Islander? Let me check…” The scruffy-bearded player froze, looking at Ji Chen in disbelief. “Are you sure your name is ‘Islander’?”


“Yes.”


“What the h.e.l.l!”


At this moment, it felt like ten thousand gra.s.s-mud horses were galloping through his mind.


The legendary ‘Islander’ was actually here!?


Ji Chen looked at the four dumbfounded casual players with a faint smile.


“You can call me Ji Chen. If there’s only one Ji Chen in Feiguang City, then you’ve probably found me.”


The scruffy-bearded player’s face displayed a smile even more awkward than crying. “B-B-Big Big Boss, if I were to tell you that we are here for a vacation would you believe us?”


At this moment, a storm of thoughts and emotions raged within them. In just a few seconds, the flood of information hit their minds like a tsunami, nearly robbing them of their ability to think.


Ji Chen, the one who had a bounty issued by the Ba.s.s Kingdom, was less than two meters away from them. Ji Chen was a well-known figure on the forums, known as ‘Islander.’


Suddenly, everything fell into place.


Recalling the words they had spoken just moments ago, the four players trembled, their scalps tingling, and they almost collapsed.


Especially the scruffy-bearded player, who felt like death was only a centimeter away, with the Grim Reaper’s scythe gently resting on his neck.


Seeing the scruffy-bearded player trembling, Ji Chen patted his shoulder and said with a smile, “No need to be afraid. I admire those who can change their minds. Since you’ve decided to give up on the bounty, 1 won’t trouble you any further.”


“I just have one question for you.”


The scruffy-bearded player bit his tongue, letting the pain snap him out of his stiffness and fear, and quickly said, “Big Boss, you can ask anything, and I promise to tell you everything!”


Ji Chen nodded. “How many players have accepted the bounty this time?”


“We’re not sure about the exact number,” the scruffy-bearded player replied, “but before we left our territory, we heard that several guilds from the Ba.s.s Kingdom and the Lienhardt Grand Duchy were mobilizing to come to Feiguang City. There are at least three-digit numbers of solo players in the nearby area who have expressed their intention to come. But in reality, there should be even more.


We estimate that players will arrive soon. We four are just here quickly due to our proximity.


However, 1 think, sir, you don’t need to worry too much about those guilds. Even though there are people who want to harm you to claim the bounty, there are also some who want to protect you.”


Ji Chen raised an eyebrow, curious, and asked, “Why is that?”


The scruffy-faced player, feeling that Ji Chen had no intention of harming them, began to calm down a bit and continued, “The player guilds based in the Kingdom of Ba.s.s, in addition to claiming the bounty, can also earn n.o.ble t.i.tles, albeit ones without real power… But as long as they successfully plot against you, the Kingdom of Ba.s.s will undoubtedly be very pleased. This offers their guilds more benefits.


As for you, being the savior of Feiguang City, the city of Tressburg should surely be grateful and appreciative of you. In this protective atmosphere, player guilds based in the Lienhardt Grand Duchy will undoubtedly choose to protect you. The reasons are the same as mentioned earlier; they can also gain significant benefits from this, which is more important than a mere five million gold coins and one million rare resources.”


Ji Chen nodded in understanding. He hadn’t realized there were these intricate motivations at play.


Previously, when he saw all the malicious comments on chat channels and forums, he thought he might have to face hostility from all sides.


Although he wasn’t afraid, he didn’t want to see his actions negatively impact the war between the two nations.


The scruffy-beared player cautiously asked, “Big Boss, do you have any other questions? If not, we’ll take our leave.”


“It’s fine, you can go… Wait.”


The four players, who had instinctively started to run, abruptly stopped and turned around with bewildered expressions.


“If you don’t have anything else to do, you can stay by my side for a while and help me with some tasks.”


Facing the four players’ puzzled looks, Ji Chen smiled faintly and casually tossed out a burlap bag.


The bag landed on the ground, producing a jingling sound as coins collided and rubbed against each other.


The scruffy-beared player’s eyes widened; he was familiar with this sound, the clinking and rubbing of coins. Judging by the size of the bag, there were at least tens of thousands of gold coins inside.


Ji Chen smiled like a rich tyc.o.o.n.


“Work under me. There will be benefits for you. Consider it a welcome gift..”
