Chapter 468: Chapter 468: The Bugle of Charge
The players, who were originally about to disperse and call on others to join them, suddenly stopped in their tracks.
No one expected this twist in the event. From Romeo’s comments, it was clear that he didn’t want Starfire Guild to pioneer the new dungeon.
“What do you mean by this? Are you going back on your word?” Sister Li asked coldly.
Romeo laughed, “How could we? The bet was between us two alliances and we will keep it. But our Devil Alliance doesn’t want your Starfire Guild to explore this dungeon right now.”
The Guardian Angel cussed, “Damn it, have you no shame?”
Romeo still smiled brilliantly, “What a way to put it. Aren’t I discussing it with your Guild Master? Let’s talk things out nicely.”
“There’s nothing to discuss. This matter affects the entire Guild. Even if the Guild Master agrees, we will not. Not to mention, the Guild Master would never agree anyway.” Fruit Knight couldn’t help but speak up.
“Look, look, don’t be in a rush. Negotiation, what is negotiation? I haven’t even stated my conditions yet.” Romeo continued without getting angry, “Now, there are two options. First, our Devil Alliance will compensate the Starfire Guild. As long as you don’t compete for the first kill, we’ll make sure you’re satisfied. Second, join our Devil Alliance. I promise that Prairie Fire will be second only to myself as vice president. And I believe no one will object. The elites of Starfire, after internal selection, will join the expedition team. Won’t everyone be happy then?”
“Keep dreaming! If you want to swallow us up, where do you think you stand? This is utterly shameless!” Ditzy pupil was furious.
“Shameless creature, don’t even bother looking at yourself.” The newbie, Mu Zi, spat out.
The members of the Starfire Guild were in an uproar, all hurling abuse.
Romeo didn’t retort but looked straight at Li Yao.
Li Yao raised his head and said indifferently: “You want a clear answer from me, right? Let me tell you straight. Your first plan, to compensate Starfire, is a big joke. My Guild’s funds are so excessive, we can buy anything we want. Without looking down on you guys, which one of your Guild’s warehouses is on par with Starfire’s?”
Li Yao continued: “As for rare materials, my Elite Professional Instructor is the Undead Queen, and I have the freedom to come and go from the Royal District. There’s no place I can’t go to. What compensation do I need from you guys? It’s a big joke.”
Li Yao’s voice was not loud, but it was clear in everyone’s ears.
Even though his words were arrogant, they were all true.
The contents of Starfire Guild’s warehouse were widely known and had a lot of buzz. There was a particular thread dedicated to the updates of Starfire’s warehouse. The thread was always updated, and it never sank. Looking at all the rich items, not to mention ordinary players, even top-tier players were green with envy.
As for the rare materials Li Yao mentioned, he inherited the relics of the ancient gods and is the Queen’s heir. Many people were envious and jealous for these reasons.
A few days ago, the Royal Caravan also brought a load of stuff into Starfire Guild, which everyone knew about. This kind of relationship is simply enviable.
The Devil Alliance wanting to compensate Starfire Guild did indeed sound ridiculous.
“So the second option, I think our alliance has been very sincere right?” Romeo asked further.
Li Yao laughed, a brilliant laughter: “Let me become your vice president, you must’ve been dreaming. Have you counted how many first kills I’ve got? In terms of skills, I can beat a hundred of you. In terms of strength, a thousand of you wouldn’t be able to touch a single hair of mine, yet you want me to be under you, who do you think you are? As for my team members, they are all elites of elites, you guys worthy of selecting them? I think you’re sleep deprived. Go home and sleep. And next time, try not to talk in your sleep in front of me.”
Everyone was stunned. Li Yao is too arrogant. Although he didn’t say it directly, his meaning was clear – he looked down on all present.
The two commentators didn’t know what to say. At this moment, Prairie Fire was truly overpowering, but he was being quite disrespectful in front of all these top-tier players.
However, although many people were annoyed, no one stood up to refute him.
After all, Li Yao’s strength was there for everyone to see. Perhaps ordinary players couldn’t see it, but the top players all understood that Li Yao wasn’t even at his full strength in the dozen or so battles.
He was basically just playing around. Yes, that was their feeling.
Everyone knew about the test of the Beast God. With Li Yao’s spiritual power, he was able to command at least two pets at once. So although what Li Yao said was arrogant, many people couldn’t refute it.
Romeo’s face turned from green to white. He had expected Li Yao to refuse, but he didn’t expect Li Yao to be so relentless.
“Prairie Fire, you are too arrogant. You may be strong, but how many opponents can you take on? Do you really think we dare not take action?” Romeo became angry. It was natural to be angry after being despised like this.
“I’ve never liked dealing with the likes of you. Yet you jumped out all by yourself and then blamed me for it. Truly laughable.” Li Yao laughed coldly: “We’ve talked for so long, isn’t it all just about a showdown? What does my Starfire Guild have to fear? Are you guys ready or not?”
“Arrogant, with just the thousand of you, huh.” Romeo laughed derisively. If they were talking about Li Yao’s individual skills and strength, that’s undeniable. But a war is not about one person.
“Whether I’m arrogant or not, you’ll know after the battle. If it wasn’t enough having some rabble wanting to stop Starfire, now we even have your so-called Devil Alliance. If we don’t teach you guys a painful lesson this time, even more dogs and cats are going to jump out. Although we at Starfire are not afraid, I find it tiresome, isn’t it so?” Li Yao was also filled with anger. Starfire and himself were constantly being targeted, this had been a source of irritation for him.
“Fine, let’s see then, how your Starfire will hurt us.” The smile on Romeo’s face also disappeared.
The audience was full of excitement. Other Guilds also kept their distance.
And members from other parts of the Starfire Guild also arrived, forming their own formations.
“Let’s fight then, Assassin Hall, make your move.” Li Yao said aloud straightforwardly.
They hadn’t expected Starfire Guild to be so steadfast. They said they would make a move and they did, without any hesitation.
At Li Yao’s words, many figures of thieves appeared on the big trees and the cliffs of the valley.
Each one of them started throwing scrolls in the direction below…
