“Leader Solitary, is there a problem?” Hidden Lurker asked once more.
“This…” Nine Solitary Spears was really embarrassed as he replied, “I might not have the final say on this. We have to see what he says…”
There was no lack of combat squads in the gaming society. As a great god himself, Thunderlord Block was usually able to upstage the main attraction. Even if Nine Solitary Spears was the leader of the Apocalypse, he had to be respectful towards Thunderlord Block too.
In the face of Hidden Lurker’s sudden request, Nine Solitary Spears was naturally no longer able to save his pride on this matter.
Hidden Lurker was once the number one talent in the nation so he knew how tricky this request could be. Instead of making fun of Nine Solitary Spears, he was actually being extremely understanding when he replied, “You can ask him about it. If he is willing, I am willing to fork out another 1000 gold.”
“Alright, that’s a deal!” Nine Solitary Spears agreed without any hesitation when he heard that Hidden Lurker was still interested in adding more gold.
“Old Thunder, do you have time?” After closing the chat with Hidden Lurker, Nine Solitary Spears immediately contacted Thunderlord Block.
Thunderlord Block replied in an instant as though he was extremely free, “En.”
“Care to help me out?”
“Not interested…” Thunderlord Block replied.
“F*ck!” Nine Solitary Spears was so infuriated he almost puked blood, “Didn’t you say you are free?”
Thunderlord Block replied, “I am free but I have no time to help you with meaningless matters.”
“This is not meaningless at all. I need you to help me deal with someone.” Nine Solitary Spears answered.
“Oh? Who?” Thunderlord Block was slightly intrigued.
Even though the Apocalypse was not flooded with top experts, they were still the dominating force in Sky Dragon City. How was it possible that there was still an opponent who Nine Solitary Spears couldn’t deal with?
“Iron Bull!” Nine Solitary Spears responded promptly.
“Iron Bull…” Thunderlord Block was slightly taken aback but replied with some excitement, “Where is he now?”
In terms of ability, Thunderlord Block was undoubtedly one of the few top experts. For top experts of his calibre, their favourite past time would be to challenge other experts to temper oneself.
During the Apostle Dungeon, Thunderlord Block witnessed Wang Yu’s fighting capabilities. The part where Wang Yu took on the BOSS on his own left the greatest impression in Thunderlord Block’s mind.
As an exceptional Guardian himself, Thunderlord Block believed he could take on the Sixth Apostle if he had his shield with him. While Thunderlord Block didn’t have Wang Yu’s agility and speed, it was understandable because of the advantages of the job. Thunderlord Block believed that his fighting style as a Guardian was far more stable than a Pugilist.
Therefore, after Thunderlord Block left Twilight City, he had been comparing himself to Wang Yu… He had been thinking about the outcome if he had a PK with Wang Yu… And now, Wang Yu came knocking on the door.
“Is that a yes?”
“Coordinates…” Thunderlord Block ignored Nine Solitary Spears’ nonsense and went straight to the point.
“South gate port!” Nine Solitary Spears replied.
“En!”
After Thunderlord Block acknowledged that, he took out a scroll to break it into two. In the very next instant, a white light surrounded his body and he disappeared without a trace.
Return to Town scroll was a reward only available to unique quests. This was a treasure to many ordinary players but Thunderlord Block actually used it because he was excited about a PK. This was an example of how wealthy a professional gamer could be.
After sending the coordinates, Nine Solitary Spears relayed the message to Hidden Lurker, “He is heading over now.”
“Coming over already?” When Hidden Lurker just received the news, a tall and sturdy man appeared at the teleportation point at the port.
Due to the Apocalypse’s clearing of the area earlier, there were not many players left at the port. Thunderlord Block’s figure was extremely outstanding.
“Is he the big sized one?”
“En, that’s him!” Nine Solitary Spears replied.
“You’re Thunderlord Block right?” Hidden Lurker hurried over to welcome him.
Thunderlord Block was slightly taken aback as he asked, “Who are you?”
When Hidden Lurker confirmed that he was Thunderlord Block, Hidden Lurker grew excited as he answered, “My name is Hidden Lurker and I am the one who got Leader Solitary to ask you for help. This person is…”
“Ohh.”
Just as Hidden Lurker was about to introduce Nian Liuyun, Thunderlord Block nodded and interrupted his introduction, “The two of you can stand over there. Do not get in my way.”
“…” Both Hidden Lurker and Nian Liuyun were not expecting this response from Thunderlord Block.
This old man was certainly full of himself. He hadn’t even asked who his opponent was and he was all ready to take him on by himself?
“Great God Thunderlord, this opponent is not a simple man.” Hidden Lurker added.
Thunderlord Block answered, “I know. If he is a simple man, I wouldn’t be here.”
“…” Once again, the duo was shocked at his confidence.
An unhappy Nian Liuyun commented, “You have no idea how impressive he is… Stop acting so arrogant!”
Just not long ago, Nian Liuyun was also recognised as a super expert. After being killed so easily by Wang Yu a few times, his confidence as a top expert disappeared unknowingly. Looking at how Thunderlord Block underestimated Wang Yu, Nian Liuyun was undoubtedly not feeling pleased.
“Oh? And who are you?” Thunderlord Block rolled his eyes over to Nian Liuyun as he asked. It almost looked like he had just noticed Nian Liuyun.
“Nian Liuyun!” Nian Liuyun answered.
Nian Liuyun’s name in <<REBIRTH>> was not any less recognised than Thunderlord Block. When Thunderlord Block heard Nian Liuyun’s name, he was evidently slightly surprised. After the surprise, Thunderlord Block asked again, “So which one of us is going to take him on first?”
“F*ck… If I can take him on alone, why would I find you…” Nian Liuyun cursed in his heart before answering out loud, “It is best if we take him on together.”
“Then it isn’t…”
“Aiya, why is there no one here?”
Just when Thunderlord Block was going to reject Nian Liuyun’s suggestion of working together, they suddenly heard a voice from elsewhere.
Following the direction of the voice, the three of them saw Wang Yu running over. Followed closely behind Wang Yu was an entire army of guards. In fact, there were over hundreds of them.
When Wang Yu arrived at the entrance of the port, the guards at the port charged at Wang Yu too. As they swung their pikes in an attempt to attack Wang Yu, Wang Yu jumped and rolled over top dodge everything. Following that, the guards at the port joined in the pursuit.
“F*ck! What is this fella doing?”
When Thunderlord Block saw this scene, his eyeballs almost flew out.
“Great God Thunderlord, hurry up and block him! Otherwise, he is going to escape…” At this moment, Hidden Lurker cried out.
Witnessing Wang Yu’s sickening speed, Thunderlord Block knew that he wouldn’t be able to stop Wang Yu if he really wanted to escape. When Hidden Lurker shouted, Thunderlord Block didn’t think twice as he lowered his head and charged at Wang Yu.
“Eh?” When Wang Yu saw the incoming shield, he seemed to have recognised the shield from somewhere. Just as he was going to dodge it, Thunderlord Block suddenly shouted, “B*stard!”
Wang Yu couldn’t help himself as he was drawn over.
In Wang Yu’s memory, there were only two Guardians who could use [Charge] and scold someone consecutively with such impressive manoeuvrability. One was Crotch Lord and the other would be Thunderlord Block.
When he was drawn over, Wang Yu lowered his head and it was indeed Thunderlord Block. At this moment, Thunderlord Block saw Wang Yu descending from above. He raised his shield and used [Shield Bash] at the air-borne Wang Yu.
[Shield Bash] would result in dizzy effect. With that many guards chasing after him now, being knocked into this effect would be detrimental to Wang Yu.
“Heh!”
Just when Thunderlord Block’s [Shield Bash] was going to hit Wang Yu, Wang Yu stepped on air and changed the direction of his body to avoid Thunderlord Block’s attack.
