Chapter 579 - 544: The Retaliation of the Bloodrose Guild
The Flying entered submerged navigation mode again and reached the Blood Sea. Da Fei, struck by a sudden whimsy, wanted to see what those Spider Demons could do when cornered, so he sent Little Fei out for reconnaissance once again.
At this moment, the dead bodies of Spider Demons floating on the sea surface had already been devoured by the Water Monsters, and those trapped on the 5 islands seemed to be pulling themselves together, busily doing something on the islands.
Holy crap, they’re still active? When the Blood Eagle flew overhead, Da Fei was shocked to discover they were digging holes in the ground on the island, and then using the excavated soil to build earthen walls in the sea!
Damn it! Seeing these five islands all starting to work simultaneously, it was clear they were planning to dig underwater tunnels connecting them into one piece! This was exactly the same idea as mine at the New Oriental Lighthouse Islands. Does it mean that given time, they could create an Underground Kingdom beneath the Blood Sea, dominating it? And since they could dig tunnels underground, the two gemstone mines here could also be occupied by them without alerting the Demigod Turtle!
Da Fei’s heart tightened. These Spider Demons truly had exceptional adaptability. This being must not be allowed to grow! If he didn’t eradicate them now, once they establish themselves underground, what could he do with his massive ship?
But it was still the same old problem, how to eradicate them? The Demigod Turtle might not see, or might simply ignore these small spiders on such distant islands, but it could definitely see Da Fei’s Flying! Da Fei couldn’t guarantee that once the Flying made an appearance, the Demigod Turtle wouldn’t come charging over!
However, if Da Fei could teleport away before the turtle charged over, wouldn’t that be like indirectly luring the turtle to wipe out these Spider Demons?
Da Fei pondered for a moment but still felt it imprudent. The Flying was his lifeline, if this turtle possessed some kind of space-locking ability, then that would be disastrous. It was not necessary to risk the Flying.
In any case, he needed to report the situation here to Makar, and it was also a good chance to take advantage of the Spider Demons to seek more help.
Thus, with a flash of light and a change of scenery, the Flying returned to Radiant City.
At this time, beautiful singing and guitar sounds were echoing over Radiant City. On the city walls, the Sea God Priest, surrounded by a group of black-clothed bodyguards, was singing and playing a guitar. On the lake where Leviathan was, the ripples gently spread out, as if responding to the rhythm.
The atmosphere of the entire Radiant City was peaceful. Da Fei instantly felt relieved; she’s so professional. With her here, why worry about handling Leviathan? But, handling Leviathan was just the first step. Da Fei needed to seize this valuable opportunity to get close to her and incidentally resolve the curse of the Sea God as well!
Just one problem, to resolve the curse of the Sea God, did he need to elope and flee the kingdom with her? Damn it! That’s like breaking up a loving couple, ruining the happy ending of a fairy tale, which would lead to him being dealt with by the prince, the real fair and happy grand ending! Anyway, Da Fei was busy now; he didn’t want to think more about the Sea God’s matter.
Da Fei immediately organized the Flower Demon workers to unload the cargo. Additionally, after multiple teleports in this battle, the Mana of the 10 Magic Charging Crystals was almost depleted, and he needed to organize the Flower Demon Slime Monsters for recharging, which kept him busy.
Da Fei then cleared his throat to Anlicia and said, "Uh, Miss Deputy City Lord, I’m taking Miss Deirdre to find a master, so I’ll leave the preparations here to you. You can transport the wood to the Elorin Shipyard."
Anlicia extended a hand and said calmly, "Money! I need funds to shop for Lady Tachiusu."
Damn! Wife asking for money, Da Fei felt so fortunate!
Da Fei laughed heartily, "Is a million enough?"
Anlicia replied indifferently, "A million is not too little, two million is not too much, whatever amount Lord City Lord provides will determine how much we can do."
Damn! Casually mentioning one or two million like it’s nothing, is she truly rich and beautiful? Da Fei felt a surge of generosity: "Okay, then 2 million it is, make sure to buy them high-end, atmospheric items!"
Anlicia nodded, "No problem, but Lord City Lord, as our city is isolated from the outside world in terms of transport, we can only transport goods through the Teleportation Array, and our level 2 Military Teleportation Array can only transport 500 Command Value of troops or 500 units of goods per day. Hence, setting aside the transport fees, just your 1500 units of wood would take 3 days to send out. The goods I need to purchase will also take 3 days to arrive. Of course, if we only pursue quality, we don’t need to fill the space—I can just buy 500 units of high-end goods, as their population isn’t that big, 500 units should be enough..."
Listening to Anlicia going on like a chatty housekeeper, Da Fei was suddenly stunned!
Damn it! This transport issue is a big problem! His Military Teleportation Array only connects to Farolan World Tree Square, not to Elorin, so even if the wood was transported in three days, it would be sent to Farolan. From the capital Farolan to the harbor city of Elorin could easily take over half a month in game time, amounting to over two days in real time! Da Fei’s game progress was swiftly advancing, could he afford to lose over two days?
Of course, wood was different. Wood was a resource that needed only to be stored in the Kingdom Bank of Farolan, and then he could equivalently withdraw it in Elorin’s Kingdom Bank, similar to depositing and withdrawing money. After all, money looked the same everywhere. But this wood was different! It was rare, exclusive wood!
But still, no worries, luckily wood is a resource and not general goods, and transporting resources has never been an issue since players can carry 10 units of resources with them. He only needed to personally make 150 trips back and forth to transport the 1500 units!
Actually, how was the Dragon Slayer Guild’s wall constructed with hundreds of thousands of units of stone? It was due to the large guild having many members, mobilizing over a thousand people to make about a dozen trips can quickly settle it.
Alright! Though it’s a bit frustrating, saving over two days in real life is worth it.
Da Fei said, "I see, then there’s no rush to transport the wood, I’ll figure it out myself, you go ahead and procure the goods."
Anlicia nodded, "Understood, I’m leaving now."
...
Now, Da Fei took Deirdre and teleported all the way to reach Saint Paul Port, hurrying straight to Makar’s office. Da Fei’s appearance, especially with a beautiful female hero, undoubtedly attracted the onlookers of the pedestrians again. And this time, a group of people were chattering:
"Look, it’s Da Fei! Da Fei has appeared, I heard he stomped on Dragon Slayer tonight!"
"Dragon Slayer got stomped? How long ago was that?"
"Just now! The details haven’t been confirmed yet, only that Dragon Slayer got stomped badly this time and is too ashamed to make a sound."
"Damn! How did you know?"
"Isn’t it obvious? My boss mixes with Star, he knows everything!"
"Hey, isn’t this the troop movement that happened this afternoon with the Elves? Did Star clash with Dragon Slayer?"
"Isn’t that obvious? But the one who dealt the coup de grâce was Da Fei! Anyway, I guess the news will break soon!"
Ah, too ashamed to make a sound? Da Fei spat out a mouthful of water laughing!
Man, indeed, if you don’t want anyone to find out, don’t do it! Even ordinary players know what I did? But Ma Yinglong was supposed to be acting with me, and he certainly plays his part convincingly! Speaking of which, am I going to be in the news again? Alright, I definitely have to see this news for myself, wahahaha!
Meanwhile, in Bloodrose Studio, the current "number one" guild in the China Region, Bloodrose Guild, which already considered Saint Paul Port as their backyard, also got the news of Da Fei appearing in Saint Paul Port immediately. Normally, Da Fei’s appearance wouldn’t be a big deal, but this time he showed up with a Banshee Hero; it was a direct challenge to Bloodrose Studio’s patience.
So, at this moment, Bloodrose Qiqi in the studio shouted: "Big sister! What a small world, this Da Fei has brought that Banshee out! We can’t let him off cheaply, let’s take her down!"
The sisters also clamored: "Exactly, he snatched our BOSS, and now dares to flaunt the BOSS in our territory, he’s totally not taking us seriously!"
Big sister Zhou Qing’s eyebrows twitched as she asked quickly: "What’s the situation with the Summoning Scroll?"
Bloodrose Holy Spear immediately responded: "Big sister, the Summoning Scroll is still sealed. This Banshee is still a pseudo-hero! Once she dies, her soul will return to the Summoning Scroll!"
The sisters voiced their agreement: "Big sister, it’s time for things to return to their rightful owner!"
Bloodrose Qiqi quickly reported, "Big sister, Da Fei and the Banshee have entered the Duke Mansion again!"
Zhou Qing sneered coldly: "Very good! This Da Fei is very arrogant indeed. Yesterday he stomped on the Royal Family, drew a Sea Monster to kill merchants, went to Dwarf Nation today to extort the Skyshattering Cannon, and I heard he even stomped on Dragon Slayer just now. No one in the entire China Region can contend with him, right? Fine, then let’s show the China Region whether anyone can really touch Da Fei!"
Bloodrose Qiqi excitedly said: "I’ll immediately call everyone from the Guild in the city, and all the subsidiary studios to gather at the Duke Mansion’s gate, and the moment Da Fei comes out, we will focus fire and kill the Banshee instantly!"
Zhou Qing shook her head proudly and smiled: "No need to dirty our sisters’ hands for such a lowlife, just leave it to reliable subsidiary studios and fan groups. Let the word out, everyone must be in position within three minutes, without leaking any news!"
The sisters were invigorated: "Understood!"
Bloodrose Qiqi laughed heartily: "There are a few masters among my fans, the type that will respond and collapse whenever called!"
The sisters burst into laughter: "Those are concubines!"
Bloodrose Qiqi was tinged with mocking anger: "You ruffian women! You are clearly jealous because my fans are better than yours!"
Zhou Qing clapped her hands: "Alright, quality over quantity. We don’t want too many people stirring up the city channel in case they indirectly alert Da Fei, so first log in a dozen storage alt accounts immediately and set up stalls selling high-quality items at high prices outside the Duke Mansion to create a false impression of a crowd of onlookers."
"Understood!"
"Then get moving now!"
Now, with an order from Bloodrose Guild, all major player organizations in Saint Paul City promptly reacted and swiftly assembled at the Duke Mansion. (To be continued. If you like this work, you’re welcome to vote and support it at qidian.com. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
