Chapter 658: Illustrious Name
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
All in all, Sanguine Warflag achieved his objective here. Even though he technically recruited a strong opponent in the Quan Zhen Sect, at least he got Wang Yu to agree to help the Sanguine Squad accumulate some points. The points system and elimination system didn’t belong to the same tournament initially. Therefore, Sanguine Warflag was naturally not worried that he would meet the Quan Zhen Sect in the pre-season.
As for the league tournament, the Sanguine Squad’s ranking wasn’t that impressive to begin with. If they were to meet the Quan Zhen Sect in the preliminary rounds, that would be their predestined fate.
At this moment, the more remarkable thing was that Fearless didn’t actually extort him which made Sanguine Warflag extremely relieved. After getting Wang Yu’s promise, Sanguine Warflag left the restaurant happily.
Once Sanguine Warflag left, the Quan Zhen Sect gathered as they continued to analyse the squad issue.
“Firstly, we need to establish a combat squad!” After a round of discussion, everyone came to an agreement.
Combat squad was not simply about coming together because a combat squad belonged to the competition system. Whether it was professional or for fun, one had to register their squad in <<REBIRTH>>’s system.
The handling of combat squad was the same as a guild hiring an army where it had to be done at the city hall’s administrative hall. The difference was that a guild belonged to a large scale organisation which would be handled personally by the mayor himself. For small scale groups of people like a combat squad, there were specialised NPC to handle.
Because of the opening of the season tournament, the usually cold and quiet city hall was flooded with people and energy. There were countless of players flooding in to register their combat squad.
Everywhere around the hall, one could hear conversations like “What quest did you get?” “F-grade? Wow, my luck is so good!”
Wang Yu was slightly confused as he said, “You still have to complete a quest to register a combat squad?”
“En, as for a guild forming combat squad, they belong to a private organisation. To register a private organisation, one has to prove their capabilities first,” Fearless nodded as he explained.
When the Quan Zhen Sect was first established, Wang Yu was around so he had never encountered anything like that.
“The quest is random?” As Wang Yu heard the conversation about the grades of the quest, Wang Yu asked.
Fearless replied, “Half-random as there are only a limited number of quests for each grade. The earlier combat squads to register would have a higher probability of drawing the lower grade quest.”
“Oh, no wonder everyone is fighting to be in front...” As he said this, another group of people was squeezing through.
At this moment, someone from the crowd shouted, “F*ck, an A grade! Wonderful!”
Following that, a loud round of applause could be heard as an unlucky group walked out with pale faces. With tears on their faces, they walked out of the crowd who were rejoicing in their misery.
Wang Yu turned to look at Fearless and Fearless spread out his hands to explain, “There are only two A-grade quests available. That group was truly so unlucky that they should go purchase a lottery ticket.”
Wang Yu said elatedly, “What? There are so many people in front of us. By the time it is our turn, won’t we get an S-grade quest?”
Fearless face turned pale as he replied, “F*ck! Can’t you just shut your crow’s beak? There is only one S-grade quest. We won’t have such luck!”
Even though Fearless replied this, he was indeed slightly worried. He immediately rolled his eyes at Ming Du and said, “Old Li, make way!”
When Ming Du heard Fearless, he raised his staff and shouted, “Sanguine Alliance is here! My staff has no eyes so everyone make way now!”
The hall was chaotic and loud but when Ming Du shouted, the hall went quiet. However, instead of making way, someone else shouted, “What’s so frightening about the Sanguine Alliance? If you are capable, why not pretend to be Quan Zhen Sect...”
Very soon, everyone started talking down on the Sanguine Alliance. All sorts of insults were directed at Sanguine Warflag and his other brothers... Once again, Wang Yu felt sad for Sanguine Warflag.
“What the! Old Li, you’re truly a useless bum!” Fearless raged.
“F*ck! How would I know that they’re not afraid of the Sanguine Alliance?” Ming Du defended himself.
“Nonsense!” Fearless replied, “They are all combat squads so why would they afraid of a lowly guild like the Sanguine Alliance?”
Those capable of forming a combat squad would usually have a big guild supporting them. None of them would be easy to deal with. Just like that, a few more squads barged their way in. Evidently, these fellas were all arrogant and despotic.
If there were only one or two guilds around, they might not dare to talk down on the Sanguine Squad. However, there were countless professional squads here. No matter how impressive the Sanguine Squad was in the past, they wouldn’t stand for anything.
“What should I do?” Ming Du looked lost.
Fearless smiled viciously as he pointed to Wang Yu. Ming Du understood what Fearless meant before appearing at the back of Wang Yu. He shouted, “Demon King Iron Bull is here! Ah...”
Once Ming Du shouted and did the ‘Ah’, everyone’s attention fell onto Wang Yu’s body.
Fist Set, padded armour, big size... F*ck!
When they saw Wang Yu, everyone lost their head out of fear as they stepped back. They retreated to the corner so as to avoid being spotted by Wang Yu.
Wang Yu’s reputation in Twilight City was far more resounding than in other cities. The streets were always talking about the battle between Great God Iron Bull and the Sanguine Alliance.
About how Great God Iron Bull took one ten thousand men by himself, punch his way from inside the city to outside the city, fill the river with blood of the members of the Sanguine Alliance, forcing Sanguine Warflag to kneel before him were just some of the stories spreading around.
Even though the stories were evidently fake, it was true that every time someone asked a player from the Sanguine Alliance about the Quan Zhen Sect, they would always avoid the question. After a while, people started to believe that those stories might be true.
Because of this, Wang Yu’s image was basically established to be a big size man with padded armour and fist set. Every time someone met a person with either one of the characteristic, they would treat that person with respect and cautiously. Everyone was afraid that they might be the next Sanguine Alliance.
At this moment, when everyone saw that Wang Yu matched all three characteristics, they rather believe it to be the truth than not. It was just drawing for a quest one person later... They quickly made way for him to go first.
“Am I really that fierce?” When Wang Yu saw everyone’s reaction, he couldn’t believe his eyes. He always thought that he was a very lovable person. Since when did he become so frightening?
Fearless chuckled. “At least we know the public opinion of you.”
“F*ck...” Wang Yu was speechless.
In fear of Wang Yu’s illustrious name, the squads in front of the Quan Zhen Sect had already made way. Fearless brought the team and walked straight to the NPC in charge.
An awkward Wang Yu waved to the players by the side. Some of them even thought that Wang Yu was going to attack them which frightened them so badly.
“Hi there, how can I help you?” the NPC asked Fearless.
“I would like to register a combat squad.”
“I’m sorry, you’re already the leader of the Quan Zhen Sect. You are not allowed to register another combat squad,” the NPC replied.
“Oh? There is such a rule...” Fearless lamented as he asked, “Who wants to be the combat squad leader?”
Everyone started looking elsewhere as though they hadn’t heard anything. Being the leader needs to pay the registration fee and being the leader of this bunch wouldn’t give them any special privilege or leadership opportunity. Who would want to do something like that?
At this moment, Fearless looked at Wang Yu who was smiling awkwardly.
“Come, Old Bull, you can be the leader.”
