“Rustling…”
In the tranquil Dawn Forest, only a sliver of moonlight seeped through, as Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) and his party of six from Owl Dragon World walked slowly onward, a journey that had already lasted over half an hour.
“Brother Sword Soul, where exactly are we headed?” Owl Dragon World asked hesitantly.
According to their previous agreement, the purpose of this trip was to address the joint actions of the Five Major Guilds, but why had they come to the Dawn Forest?
“Do not worry, my friend. Everything will soon be revealed!” Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) replied calmly.
Yet, one could hear the confidence and pride in his tone. The three members of Owl Dragon World exchanged glances, momentarily at a loss for words, but a vague sense of doubt lingered in their hearts—what exactly was Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) planning?
Moments later, another ten minutes passed!
Suddenly, numerous figures emerged from the depths of the dense forest. Upon closer inspection, it became clear that “numerous” was an understatement. The three from Owl Dragon World were taken aback to discover that hidden within this forest were tens of thousands of players.
“They are all members of my King's Guild!”
Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) smiled slightly and continued, “Members from other guilds who agreed to participate in this operation are also on their way!”
As he spoke, Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) turned his gaze toward Owl Dragon World.
This implied that the members from the kings and other participating smaller guilds had either arrived or were en route. Shouldn’t the esteemed Fierce Dragon Guild also be preparing to take action?
“Ha!”
Owl Dragon World chuckled awkwardly and said, “Members of my Fierce Dragon Guild can arrive at any time, but frankly speaking, it seems nearly impossible for such a large group to appear unnoticed near the area where the Five Major Guilds are operating.”
“I have a question as well; I hope you can enlighten me, Sword Soul President!”
Fallen Grudge tightened his grip on the dagger in his hand, a hint of doubt flickering in his eyes. "What is the destination for the Five Major Guilds' joint operation? How far is it? These details are still unknown, so how are we supposed to initiate this combined action?"
"Heh heh, I have naturally made preparations for this!"
Zeng Jian, known as King's Sword Soul, replied with a serious gaze. "To be honest, from the moment the Five Major Guilds appeared in Xiliang City, my people have been following them. Now that the members of the Five Major Guilds have reached their destination, it’s time for us to take action."
"Oh?"
The three from Owl Dragon World were taken aback. "Isn't Brother Sword Soul afraid of being discovered by them?"
The "discovery" he referred to was, of course, about the people sent to track the Five Major Guilds. Zeng Jian laughed heartily. "As long as we follow them openly, what’s there to fear? Do they really think a mere ten-man squad poses a threat?"
"…"
The three from Owl Dragon World were momentarily speechless, then they expressed their realization.
"So how do we get there?" Fallen Grudge voiced his final concern. Although someone was tracking them, there were only ten people after all!
"Follow me!"
Zeng Jian did not reveal everything directly but led the three to a location guarded by over a hundred Heavy Armored Knights.
"This is…"
The three from Owl Dragon World shivered involuntarily as they stood before a massive Strange Rune etched into the ground. Although they couldn’t fully understand it, they were not unfamiliar with such runes.
"A Teleportation Circle?!"
“Ugh…”
In the dim light, Not a Master suddenly exclaimed in surprise, hurriedly signaling Hero Does Not Question Origin and Stinky Fish to dive into the bushes. In disbelief, he said, “Damn it, these guys are really up to no good! There are so many players hiding in Dawn Forest!”
“But we still don’t know what they want to do,” Stinky Fish replied.
“Should we get a little closer?” Hero Does Not Question Origin hesitated. At that moment, he also spotted numerous players concealed among the trees ahead. The sheer number was overwhelming and impossible to determine.
“We’ll get discovered if we go any closer!” Not a Master said, conflicted.
They leaned in to listen, but all they could hear was the sound of Mountain Breeze and the low murmurs of many players. However, with so many players around, those whispers turned into a chaotic noise by the time it reached their ears, making it impossible to discern anything.
“Damn!”
Not a Master couldn’t help but curse when he suddenly heard Hero Does Not Question Origin say, “It seems like someone is coming from behind!”
“What the hell!”
Not a Master quickly turned around. The sound of rustling indicated that quite a few players were approaching. Unsure whether they were friend or foe, he quickly urged the other two, “Hide! Don’t make a sound. Let’s communicate through team chat and see what’s going on first!”
The three of them swiftly crouched beneath a large bush, each taking a position to observe.
Soon, more teams of players arrived with clear intent, heading straight toward where Zeng Jian (King's Sword Soul) and Owl Dragon World were located. Then there was silence; clearly, these newcomers shared a common purpose with them.
“They’re all in cahoots!” Not a Master said within the team.
"With so many people gathered here, what exactly are they planning to do?" Hero Does Not Question Origin furrowed his brow and continued to scan the area. "Just from what we can see, there must be several thousand of them. Is this the setup for a large-scale battle?"
"Who are they fighting?" Stinky Fish asked.
"God knows!" Not a Master cautiously peeked around the bush, gritting his teeth. "I wonder if this is aimed at us, Mist of Time?"
"We can't rule out that possibility!"
Hero Does Not Question Origin continued to ponder, contemplating, "But one thing I don't understand is why they would gather so many people in this dense forest without anyone noticing. Such behavior only makes sense if they are up to something secretive, right?"
"Maybe they aren't targeting us at all?" Stinky Fish suggested.
"Regardless of whether they are or not, we need to figure this out!" Not a Master asserted firmly. "In any case, these people coming together can't mean anything good!"
"Agreed!"
Both Hero Does Not Question Origin and Stinky Fish nodded in agreement, clearly sharing the same resolve. The three continued to lie in wait, careful not to get too close. They remained in their position for a full half hour, observing from a distance when suddenly they heard a rustling noise behind them.
"Damn, there are more of them?" The three were startled.
"It's the Owl Dragon's people!" Not a Master felt his heart race. "I've seen the leader before; these are all members of the Fierce Dragon Guild!"
