Entering the alliance list and clicking on the details of the alliance "Jian Ge", the number of members really changed from 8/10 to 7/10, just as the "Tribute" said.
Tao Sai frowned slightly and fell into thought.
Jiange's reputation is now so bad that it is no exaggeration to describe it as a rat crossing the street. Its members dare not speak in the alliance. But even if its reputation is bad, its foundation is still there. It is still a very powerful alliance with good overall combat capability. Even if there are people who really hate evil and want to uphold justice, they will never dare to touch this bad luck.
There is only one explanation at the moment, that is, the player "Mr. Bucai Youshan" took action.
Even if he did take action, there were two possible scenarios. First, the possibility of his connection to Jiange couldn't be completely ruled out. Those people were ruthless and capable of anything. Tao Sai was absolutely certain they had room to maneuver and would resort to self-torture, sacrificing unimportant members in order to elevate their "insignificant" status.
Another possibility is that he really pledged his allegiance.
If it was the latter, Tao Sai felt somewhat uncomfortable. This was completely beyond her expectations. She had simply thrown out a big, vague target, primarily as a test, to rule out any suspicion of his connection to Jiange. A normal person would have ignored it. And yet, he actually did it, and he succeeded.
But what does this mean to him? He is a level 3 player, putting himself in danger, facing an extremely large organization. It is not appropriate to describe it as throwing an egg at a stone, he is just asking for his death.
Tao Sai looked at the chat records flooding the world channel and felt increasingly uneasy.
Very few players knew what really happened. At the beginning of [S2 Season], the world channel was in a hot chat period. He Zhaonian's message was quickly pushed to the top, and there were dozens of messages between it and the reply. The two parties were almost chatting across servers, and almost no one noticed the pledge except the parties involved.
So at this point, the players all believed that Hailou was launching a counterattack against Jiange: "Boss 330 took action!" "Boss, charge! Destroy Jiange! I love to watch!" "Hoohoo, finally, is this what we've been waiting for?" "My favorite episode!" "I'll be waiting all night for the death announcement of Jiange!"
He Zhaonian and his friends discussed it in the alliance channel for a while, but then they felt that remote discussion was not enough, so they all climbed onto the "Deep Sea Fish" to gather.
"Sister Sai, what do you think? He must have done it, right?" He Zhaonian asked. He pounded his fist into his palm, having been overcome with emotion ever since he saw the death notice.
He didn't think as much as Tao Sai. Jiange was their biggest enemy anyway. He was naturally excited about the reduction in Jiange's members.
Tao Sai supported his chin with his hand, still thinking.
"I used to think he was careless and his speeches were also very frivolous, but I didn't expect him to be so capable," said Tang Yingxue.
"Isn't he only level three? He was at the bottom of the standings last season. If it's really him, it's too outrageous. Everyone in Jiange is level four." Shi Jiahui was skeptical.
He Zhaonian nodded in agreement. "Yes, I find it strange too. Although level can't be directly linked to combat effectiveness, a low level definitely means fewer resources, insufficient training, and a series of hardware that can't keep up. So how strong can combat effectiveness be?"
"Sister Sai, do you want to agree to his application to join the alliance first, and then we can ask him about the situation after he joins Hailou's channel?" He Zhaonian said after a pause.
"The whole thing is very strange. I have a bad feeling. Let's not rush to arrest him. Let's wait and see what happens."
Having said that, Tao Sai couldn't really calm down.
If he truly had sacrificed his life to pledge his loyalty, he would likely be doomed by now. Tao Sai could imagine that, lacking his own strength, he might have relied on some skill to kill the Sword Pavilion members. By the time the other Sword Pavilion members reacted and activated the diffuse fog, he would have lost his fighting ability and would have been trapped and killed, just like she had been.
Just ignore him? He was the ally they had been discussing for a long time, and now he had done something so significant, eliminating an enemy for Hailou. Others were silently risking their lives for you, yet you just stood by and watched. How could you bear it?
Even if we take a step back and say that it was for Hailou's benefit, his fighting ability seemed to be good, and watching him die would mean losing a powerful helper.
However, if we rashly agree to his application to join the alliance, and if it is really a self-torture trick by the undercover agent, we will not be able to kick him out. Allies are immune to damage, and he will always exist in the member list. Hailou's chat channel will be completely scrapped.
Tao Sai rubbed his temples vigorously, feeling extremely conflicted. As time passed, there was still no more news coming from the world channel, and his uneasiness grew more and more.
At a certain moment, Tao Sai's eyes suddenly became firm, and she made up her mind to take a gamble.
"I'll bring him in first. Please don't post any confidential information in the alliance channel for now." Tao Sai said.
She had made plans: if an undercover agent was brought in, she would simply scrap the channel and keep her distance from him. But saving people was the most important thing right now.
Entering the alliance leader management page of the alliance "Hailou", Tao Sai found the application for joining the alliance a few days ago, focused his eyes on "Agree", and clicked it.
【[Mr. Bucai Youshan] has joined the channel. 】
The number of members in Hailou increased from 4/10 to 5/10, and the nicknames of new members appeared on the member list.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: @(Mr. Bucai Youshan), how are you doing now?
Ten minutes passed and there was no reply. It seemed very bad. He didn't even have time to pay attention to the system interface.
Tao Sai slowly raised his head, his expression solemn. "How have you three been training lately?"
He Zhaonian guessed Tao Sai's thoughts in a split second. "You've been practicing really well, Sister Sai. To be honest, these past ten days, we've been using actual combat in this illusion as a substitute for training. Every fight has been a life-or-death struggle, and we've given our all in every battle, with no two fights repeated. We've learned a lot of practical combat experience and skills, and our combat power has at least tripled. And haha, I think the most important thing is our mentality. As for me, I'm completely different from before."
"Xiao He is right," Tang Yingxue nodded in agreement. "We've died countless times in this illusion, and we're tortured by Feng Tao every day. He really beats us, the kind that kills us. In this situation, it's impossible for our survival instincts not to be unleashed to their full potential."
Tao Sai's eyes were slightly relieved. She quickly restrained her excessive emotional expression and said seriously, "Very good. There will be a battle tonight. This is our first collective action in Hailou. It will be dangerous, but we have to go."
"Is it finally coming! I've been waiting for this moment for so many days!" The blood in He Zhaonian's body seemed to be ignited all at once, and his capillaries were boiling.
He was rubbing his hands and stretching his muscles. Just wait, you bastards from Jiange, today is a good time for revenge!
Tang Yingxue and Shi Jiahui's eyes also gleamed with excitement. It could be said that they had endured the pain and trained desperately for more than ten days just to prepare for this moment.
"Go back and change your clothes now, preferably into hunting clothes, bring your weapons, and gather at my place in twenty minutes," Tao Sai said.
Tao Sai left the ward and quickly climbed the stairs to the captain's cabin. Zhou Ning was already asleep. Without waking her, Tao Sai quietly opened the wardrobe, took out a set of sportswear and tapered sweatpants, and changed into them. This outfit was all black, so it blended in with the night.
She tied her hair into a ponytail and then skillfully rolled it into a bun. She put the dagger on her calf and the T7 pistol was still fixed on her upper arm. She also took a piece of iron rod about 1.2 meters long, which was her walking stick.
Tao Sai hadn't fully adapted to her stat points yet, and coupled with the sheer volume of exercise she'd done today, her legs were still a bit shaky, and her stamina hadn't quite recovered. This was when the team's role came into play. While she wasn't quite ready for the assault, she could offer teleportation skills, providing tactical support and strategic shifts.
Twenty minutes later, the four-member Hailou team gathered on the deck of the Deep Sea Fish. They were fully prepared and ready to set off at any time.
It was eleven o'clock in the evening, and there was finally a new message in Hailou's chat channel.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Eh? Am I in the sea building?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Oh my god!
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Holy shit! The boss tagged me... Damn, am I dead?
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: Are you okay now?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Huh? Oh, you can see the death notice. I'm fine, but it's a pity that I only killed one person.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: You ran away?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Yeah, how could they possibly keep me? My skills are invincible. But seriously, I finally made it to the sea tower! It's a long-cherished wish come true, hahahaha, thanks to you, my dream has come true.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: No injuries
After asking this question, the Alliance channel fell silent for two minutes. Tao Sai felt an indescribable strangeness. Then, he finally responded.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: What! Am I seeing right? Boss, are you really concerned about me?! Ah, I'm dead, I'm gone, I'm just a rotten life, what's the point of this?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Ahhhhh, I'm so happy. I really am. I've never been this happy in my entire 24 years of life. I love you so much!!!
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Boss, I'm not injured, not seriously, just a few scrapes, no blood. I just beat that bastard to pieces. Damn, he looks like a decent guy, but he's a black man at heart. He even wants to trick me.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: But I really had a blast today. I got to be an assassin. It's like being in the thick of things, killing people in the mortal world. Isn't that cool? It's awesome!
Tao Sai looked at the speech after speech and spoke with a stern expression.
[Cx330 (Lv4)]: Have you always been so talkative?
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: No no hahahahahaha, I just had a little drink and was inspired to speak without stopping.
[Mr. Bucai Youshan (Lv3)]: Boss, it's too late today, you should go to bed early, bye
"To be honest, this guy is really awesome. He killed a man from Jiange and still managed to get away safely." He Zhaonian praised sincerely.
Tang Yingxue also breathed a sigh of relief: "Sister Sai, it was just a false alarm. We don't need to go."
Tao Sai stood there without moving. Her eyes were vague and she kept looking back and forth at the chat history of the alliance channel. The strange feeling was getting worse.
wrong.
"No!" Tao Sai's eyes lit up.
"What's wrong, Sister Sai?" He Zhaonian, who was about to return to his boat, was startled and asked quickly.
Tao Sai said: "Did you notice that there is no future in his words?"
"ah?"
"install?"
"What's the meaning?"
The three of them were all stunned.
"Yingxue, he's always wanted to join our Hailou, right?" After receiving a nod from the other party, Tao Sai turned his gaze to He Zhaonian, "Xiao He, if it were you, and you finally joined an alliance you've longed for, what would you say in it?"
"Please give me your guidance in the future." "My real name is so-and-so, what's yours?" "Wow, you're all level four, please guide me." "I'll definitely follow Sister Sai and get along well with her in the future!" "Sister Sai, where are you? I'll be right back to meet you." "I have a skill... that can be of help, I can..." "Our Hailou will definitely become bigger and stronger, and dominate the world!"
He didn't say a single word of these words, even if they were similar.
"If I'm not mistaken, he must be in a very bad condition now." Tao Sai said after careful consideration.
