System Announcement: 【Lord Dolan of South Wilderness City】 has issued a bounty: Player 【Fallen Leaves Whisper】 has brazenly betrayed the Human Faction, slaughtering all soldiers at Ironclad Camp and openly opposing humanity. This general hereby officially places a Server-wide bounty on Player 【Fallen Leaves Whisper】. From the moment this bounty is issued, the player will be unable to enter cities or villages normally, will be marked with a red name, and upon death will lose all Level. Those who kill this player can claim ten thousand gold coins at the general's office. This bounty will last for one hour; after one hour, the player will be expelled from the Human Faction!
……
The System announcement rang out without warning, leaving Yi Tianchen completely stunned.
Standing there expressionlessly, he raised his sword and plunged it directly into his thigh. Feeling the piercing pain and watching the crimson Red Health liquid seep out, Yi Tianchen realized deeply that this was not a dream but a stark reality.
However…
What the hell is going on? What started as a righteous mission to eliminate traitors and protect the nation suddenly turned into treason?
Reflecting on all the details, Yi Tianchen still had no thoughts. Had the conspiracy already begun the moment he stepped into the general's office?
But would the System grant NPCs such a mode of existence?
Regardless, all these doubts could surely be answered by Lord Dolan. What did this Old Man want? Why was he chosen in the end? Why go through such elaborate arrangements for an incomprehensible conspiracy?
As countless questions and confusions surged in his mind, Yi Tianchen felt his whole body tremble. A deadly conspiracy orchestrated by an NPC aimed at a player? Even more Speechless, he had actually believed it—how absurd!
“What… what’s going on?”
“No way? Is the System acting up?”
“Sure enough, it’s a scam… I knew something was off!”
The three of them exchanged incredulous glances, unable to find suitable words to express their feelings at that moment.
“Fallen Wood Boss, what do we do now?” asked The Terminator of Regrets.
“Let’s go back. No matter what, we need to get to the bottom of this!” Yi Tianchen said resolutely, gazing towards the direction of Southern Wilderness City. The only way to uncover the truth behind this was to return to Southern Wilderness City, confront that lord, and demand answers.
"But... going back like this..."
The three of them fell into a moment of speechlessness. The system announcement had just been released, and the so-called server-wide bounty was now officially in effect. Asking for clarification upon returning was certainly a good idea, but the key issue was whether they could even enter the city smoothly. Would they be able to meet Lord Dolan of South Wilderness City?
Clearly, this was a problem that needed to be considered and faced!
"At worst, we'll just fight him," Hero Does Not Question Origin shouted. Although it sounded impractical, no one voiced any objections.
Turning around, Yi Tianchen looked at the gleaming Dragon's Roar in his hand, a fierce battle intent flashing in his eyes. He then strode forward, found the hidden carriage, and the four of them climbed aboard. The carriage immediately sped off, racing down the road towards Southern Wilderness City.
Opening his messages, Liu Yuhan had sent thirty-seven inquiries filled with deep concern and confusion. Yi Tianchen smiled bitterly; this situation was indeed hard to explain. He roughly described what had happened and reassured her not to worry, though he felt an overwhelming sense of doubt and shock rising within him.
At the same time, with the server-wide system announcement echoing, all players—whether they had grievances against Yi Tianchen or not—immediately recognized the opportunity at hand: a full ten thousand gold coins. Converted into real currency, that was a substantial amount; how could anyone pass up such a guaranteed profit?
In an instant, everyone sprang into action...
Moments later, a shout rang out from outside the carriage: "Everyone look! That's Fallen Leaves Whisper's carriage! Chase after it! He's holding the second-ranked spirit weapon on the Equipment List—Dragon's Roar! If we kill him, there's a reward of ten thousand gold coins! Everyone, chase!"
Thus, a large group of players recklessly pursued Yi Tianchen, attempting to catch up to a carriage moving at eighty kilometers per hour on foot!
Yi Tianchen didn't even feel contempt for them...
Soon, the majestic West City Gate of Southern Wilderness City came into view. At the same time, several carriages lined up on the main road intending to intercept them. However, Yi Tianchen was completely indifferent to life and death at this moment; he showed no signs of slowing down and instead pushed the carriage's speed to its limits.
"Boom boom..."
With an explosive burst of speed, the carriage surged forward like a wild horse breaking free from its reins, charging ahead with an overwhelming momentum.
Before long, shouts and neighs echoed outside the window as people reacted to Yi Tianchen's reckless determination. Many chose to retreat and dodge in an instant; after all, they were here for profit, and dying before securing any rewards was simply not worth it.
In no time at all, the carriage successfully reached the drawbridge over the city moat. But as Yi Tianchen had anticipated, upon hearing about his bounty and the prohibition against entering the city, the four guards stationed there immediately stepped forward with their spears raised high in defiance at the city gate.
"Kill!"
Yi Tianchen's cold voice rang out as Proud Dragon extended, the feathered arrows loaded and aimed, striking down two guards on the spot. The carriage surged forward with a roar that tore through the air, forcing the remaining two guards aside as it sped into Southern Wilderness City.
However, not far inside the city, a large group of soldiers appeared in a hurry, quickly forming ranks, drawing their bows, and preparing for battle. Yi Tianchen gritted his teeth in frustration; if they launched an attack now, they would be turned into a porcupine!
Helpless, Yi Tianchen and Proud Dragon quickly dove back into the carriage. Outside, a series of sharp sounds erupted, clearly indicating that the soldiers were recklessly firing arrows. The pained whinnies of the horse echoed like a sharp steel needle piercing deep into his heart.
Yi Tianchen felt utterly speechless; this situation was clearly dire. If the horse was shot dead, the carriage would be finished too.
Yet, perhaps even the horse sensed Yi Tianchen's plight. Despite the relentless barrage of arrows, it continued to run—though its cries of agony persisted, and its speed had noticeably slowed, indicating it was nearing its limit.
Fortunately, this squad of soldiers was forced to scatter. Unable to resist, Yi Tianchen peeked out and saw that the horse was pierced by as many as twenty or thirty arrows, with streams of crimson blood trickling down like a small rain shower—a sight both shocking and heartbreaking!
In that moment, Yi Tianchen was moved to tears. He opened the map; the General's Mansion was now just ahead. Gritting his teeth, he urged the horse on again, scattering two squads of melee soldiers and countless players hoping to gain an advantage as they raced toward the gates of the General's Mansion.
The carriage came to a sudden halt, followed by a mournful whinny...
