CHAPTER 166: CHAPTER 149: THE FURIOUS MANIAC

Watching the empty space below the canyon rapidly shrinking, the Divine Hall Madman’s face turned increasingly frenzied and sinister:

"Let’s see where you hide now."

Counting the attack on Proud Sanctuary’s base, the Divine Hall Madman had already died twice at their hands.

For the Divine Hall Madman, this was an indelible disgrace.

On the assassination list, Tian Ci and Red Eyes could be said to be neck and neck with Feng Hua.

This is also why, after so much effort, the Divine Hall Madman was determined to find them and kill them.

Frustrated time and again by these individuals, the Divine Hall Madman could no longer tolerate it.

At that moment, Divine Hall Six Paths suddenly looked panic-stricken and said:

"Boss Madman, something’s wrong, something’s happened."

The Divine Hall Madman, who was in a good mood, felt his heart involuntarily sink at these words.

He didn’t know when it started, but the Divine Hall Madman became extremely anxious about things beyond his control.

Hearing these words "something’s wrong," made the Divine Hall Madman’s mood violently intense.

The Divine Hall Madman grabbed Divine Hall Six Paths by the collar and angrily said:

"Tell me clearly, what’s happened?"

Seeing the Divine Hall Madman’s expression, Divine Hall Six Paths swallowed nervously and said as steadily as possible:

"The people from Holy Hall suddenly returned to Cyan Dragon City; they didn’t follow the plan."

"Damn!"

The Divine Hall Madman pulled Divine Hall Six Paths closer, his eyes glaring widely:

"What?"

"Say it again!"

Although there’s no concept of sweating in the game, Divine Hall Six Paths still felt a prickling sensation on his back, a chill:

"All our preparations have gone down the drain."

The Divine Hall Madman suddenly kicked Divine Hall Six Paths, angrily cursing:

"Useless!"

Divine Hall Six Paths was kicked back three or four meters, rolling and scrambling, but didn’t dare to gasp.

Was the Divine Hall Madman’s grand gesture really just to vent anger on Tian Ci and the others?

Of course not!

The reason why the Divine Hall Madman did this, as Luoshen Demon Fiend guessed, was that exterminating Holy Hall to establish authority was his primary goal.

According to the Madman’s calculations, if everyone from Proud Sanctuary could be killed once, leveling them down, then the top spot on the guild power rankings would undoubtedly belong to Divine Hall.

Although in the players’ minds, Divine Hall’s strength had already reached the top, the ranking meant little.

But for someone as arrogant as the Divine Hall Madman, how could he settle for second place when he could be first?

Everything on his side was arranged, but now the main players suddenly decided not to come; how could the Madman not be angry? How could he not be furious?

If this opportunity was missed, targeting Proud Sanctuary members again to ensure they all die once would require much more time and effort.

And this undoubtedly increased many uncertain factors.

Given the Divine Hall Madman’s sensitive nerves, any uncertain factor would drive him crazy.

At this moment, Divine Hall Madness speculated on the side:

"Could it be that Lord suddenly had a change of heart?"

"Impossible!"

The Madman directly denied Madness’s speculation.

In Madman’s understanding of Lord, the only person who could make him change his mind was:

Feng Hua!

Madman suddenly had a flash of intuition, glaring at Six Paths:

"Where is Feng Hua? Where is he?"

Yes, how could so much time pass without Feng Hua appearing?

With Feng Hua’s temperament, Red Eyes and Tian Ci being cornered here, he couldn’t possibly have no reaction!

Divine Hall Six Paths hesitated for a moment, then said:

"Someone saw him heading to the City Lord’s Mansion in Cyan Dragon City."

"City Lord’s Mansion?!"

Madman was stunned: Could he be seeking help from the City Lord?

It’s well-known that Feng Hua has a good relationship with NPC Babylon.

But then again, as a high-standing figure once said, game NPCs are not allowed to directly or indirectly intervene in player competitions.

But if not seeking the City Lord’s help, what would he be doing at the City Lord’s Mansion?

Divine Hall Six Paths suddenly said to Madman:

"Just received news, Luoshen Liunian has assembled over a thousand people departing from Cyan Dragon City’s West City Gate."

"Also, members of Proud Sanctuary are gathering at the West City Gate, plus..."

Divine Hall Six Paths cautiously glanced at Madman, who angrily shouted:

"Plus what?"

Divine Hall Six Paths sighed and said:

"Ice and Snow Illusion City has also assembled over two thousand players outside Cyan Dragon City’s West City Gate."

"Two thousand?"

Divine Hall Madman was stunned:

"Where did Phantom City get so many people?"

The scale of Ice and Snow Illusion City isn’t even as big as Famous Clan, right?

As the top guild in the game, Divine Hall only has 1,700 members.

But Divine Hall Six Paths explained:

"Ice and Snow Illusion City itself has gathered less than a thousand people, but you know they’re all female players."

Then Divine Hall Six Paths helplessly said:

"The other over a thousand players were brought by these women themselves."

Divine Hall Madman was dumbfounded:

"That’s possible?"

"What are they planning to do?"

Divine Hall Madman’s eyes widened as a bad premonition suddenly crept into his heart.

At this moment, Divine Hall Madman suddenly made a joke:

"Isn’t the west city gate heading towards our base? Are they planning to attack our base?"

He couldn’t help but laugh after he said it.

Divine Hall Madman laughed because once a base is built, it’s under the protection of the Cyan Dragon City Lord.

It wouldn’t just be these few guilds together; even if all players in the game united, they still wouldn’t be able to defeat the City Lord’s Mansion’s army.

That’s why Madman found his idea so laughable.

Even Divine Hall Six Paths laughed.

However, Divine Hall Madman couldn’t laugh at this joke.

Perhaps everyone thought it was entirely absurd and impossible to happen.

But when this matter involved Feng Hua, Divine Hall Madman always felt it wasn’t so absolute.

The more he thought about it, the more uneasy he became, looking down into the canyon,

"Let’s start now, no more waiting."

Divine Hall Madman was puzzled and asked:

"Not going to play a bit longer?"

Madman was furious:

"Find those two and kill them now!"

Divine Hall Madman was shocked by this shout, his face changed.

But he still gave the command within the guild.

Divine Hall Madman (Guild Vice President): "Everyone in the canyon, listen: First-row shield warriors establish defense, Priest get ready to heal, preventing the opponent’s counterattack."

Divine Hall Madman (Guild Vice President): "Those in the backlines, attack the target area indiscriminately, don’t spare the cliff walls, flush those two out."

And just then, the world turned red:

System (Cyan Dragon City): The City Lord has approved the siege request by player "Feng Hua."

System (Cyan Dragon City): Siege target: Divine Hall Base; Siege time limit: 3 hours; Attacking party: Creation Mercenary Corps; Countdown to Divine Hall Base defense begins: 01:00:00.

At the same time, Divine Hall Madman also received a blood-red system prompt.

System: "Creation Mercenary Corps" will launch an attack on "Divine Hall" base in 1 hour; Please protect the guild’s Government Hall from being destroyed within the time limit. Base defense countdown: 01:00:00.

Seeing the prompt, Divine Hall Madman was dumbfounded,

"I actually guessed it?"

Divine Hall Madman exploded:

"Damn it!"

Meanwhile, at the bottom of the canyon, those guild members looked at each other in confusion.

They didn’t know whether to follow Madman’s orders or hurry back to defend the base.

At this moment, Madman could somewhat understand why Madman would get so agitated at the mere mention of ’Feng Hua.’

It seems Feng Hua always manages to bring unexpected "surprises."

"Still want to fight?" Madman asked.

Glaring ferociously at the bottom of the canyon, Madman was so furious his lungs felt like they were about to burst,

"Fight your mother! Return to the base!"

Divine Hall Madman couldn’t believe it, wondering how a mercenary corps with fewer than ten people could pose a significant threat.

Once this kind of defense battle starts, except for members of the Creation Mercenary Corps, no one else can enter the base area.

So Divine Hall Madman wasn’t worried about anyone else getting involved.

The only thing making Madman mad was that the war horn for the siege application was said to drop only from level-50 or above bosses at an extremely low rate, according to the official information.

How did Feng Hua get his hands on one?

Just then, an unexpected change occurred again.

When Divine Hall Madman attempted to use Return to City to head back to the base, he was informed that the teleportation feature couldn’t be used during the defense battle.

This intensified the unease in Divine Hall Madman’s heart,

"Quick, return to Cyan Dragon City."
