Congratulations, Guild [Sword and Rose] has won 1 victory.
The people of Beiming City were killed in battle, and Xia Yao and his team won their first victory.
The guild PK is a best-of-three series, and the challenge will end as long as they win the next game.
The pressure suddenly came to the Beiming Capital.
A total of 118 people didn't get a single kill on the opposing team. This was so outrageous that if Guild President Bei Ming hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that there were such powerful opponents in the game.
He remembered his sister coming to him crying and complaining that Yin Yao, the guild leader of Sword and Rose, was once a member of his guild, but that the other party was ungrateful and stole 250 ores from the guild before leaving. Afterwards, he hired netizens to spread rumors and slander them on the forum, which caused the reputation of Beiming City to take a sharp turn for the worse recently.
Bei Ming, who had just come online, chose to believe his sister at the first moment, so he only hurriedly asked a few people who were relatively close to him, such as Colorful Bubbles and Stop the War, and then issued a declaration of war to Sword and Rose.
Their position in the top ten of Beiming Capital was not easy to come by. They did not have the influence of old and large guilds like Crowned King and Black and White Wind Shadow, nor did they grow as fast as emerging guilds like Hunting Bloodthirsty. They could only rely on investing resources to upgrade the guild quickly so that they could stand out among the guilds.
A rapid rise in rankings will inevitably arouse the jealousy of rivals, so when Bei Mingdu learned that the female poet was targeting them, his first reaction was that he had met a rival, and he also wanted to rely on public opinion to drag them into the water.
Of course, he would not sit idly by and watch an opponent using despicable means.
But now that the first game was over, the score of 0:1180 was clearly revealed to everyone, and Bei Ming couldn't help but begin to doubt his own judgment.
Is the fact really as he thought?
A top-ranked player created a top-ranked guild. Why didn't he target others, but them?
There are so many guilds in the top ten. Except for the big guilds like Crowned King and Black and White Wind Shadow that ordinary people cannot shake, which other guilds are not like them, trying their best to get in?
For example, the eighth guild ahead of them, Florence, has an unknown president and vice president, and a small number of members. Why didn't Sword and Rose slander them, but only slandered Bei Ming?
The more he thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. Bei Ming couldn't help but frown: "Qinglan, tell me again what happened between you and that female poet."
Yuan Qinglan was feeling extremely frustrated at the unprecedented score. When he heard Bei Mingdu's question, he became extremely impatient: "Didn't I already tell you? Why do you still need me to explain?"
Bei Mingdu narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression and voice darkened: "Yuan Qinglan, I don't want to repeat myself a second time."
The two siblings knew each other's personalities well. Seeing her brother's serious expression, Yuan Qinglan glanced at him uncomfortably, thought for a moment, and said, "That's right. After joining our guild, she disobeyed my orders, formed a wild team to go to a dungeon without my permission, and refused to submit her dungeon strategy after getting the first kill. I tagged her several times in the guild, but not only did she not reply, she even quit the guild."
"Go on." Bei Mingdu said when he saw her stop.
Yuan Qinglan had no choice but to continue, "I thought she could just quit the guild. Since her heart wasn't here, we shouldn't force her to stay. But then I discovered the iron ore in the warehouse was gone. After investigating, I discovered she might have stolen it. She was selling equipment slots at the market at the time, and when I saw the equipment slots, they were made of iron ore, so I confronted her. Bro, I didn't force her, and I gave her time to think about it. Who knew she'd turn around and go to the forum to troll me, using her fake account to spread rumors about me and Beiming Capital? Do you think I could tolerate this injustice? Even if I did, what about the other members of the guild? They'd just endure this slander in vain?"
Bei Mingdu interrupted her: "Alright, stop showing off in front of me."
Bei Ming knew his sister's character too well. She always said things like "I can endure it, but can others endure it?" Once she suffered a little injustice, she would want to drag everyone up to speak up for her.
Bei Ming could naturally see through her little thoughts. Usually he chose to tolerate them or ignore them. After a few days, her anger would naturally subside.
But he couldn't just sit back and watch what was happening in the guild during this period.
Take the most egregious incident, the theft of iron ore. He didn't understand what the poetess was up to. It wasn't that he, the guild leader, was intentionally belittling himself, but he knew a great deal about the items and ores in the warehouse. A large portion was bought cheaply for show, with little practical use. He doubted that the poetess, who was ranked number one on the list, couldn't see that.
And since he's already at the top of the leaderboard, why would he need the money to buy ore? Is it really necessary to resort to stealing, a self-defeating method, to help himself debut?
Bei Mingdu stared at Yuan Qinglan expressionlessly. There was an obvious loophole in his sister's words.
But he had no intention of making it clear.
After all, she is my own sister, and I have watched her grow up since she was a child. It’s better for her to wake up to some things on her own. There is no need to expose her in front of so many people.
To start the second round, both sides need to press the prepare button.
The Sword and the Rose were already prepared, but the players in the North Sea City waited for a long time but still didn't see their agreement.
"Are you so confused by the abuse... that you don't dare to go on stage again?"
"If I were their president, I'd be scared too after seeing this bloody score."
"I don't know if they're planning some kind of strategy. Honestly, they were too careless in the first round and didn't take the number one player seriously. But after all, there are so many people in Beiming City. If they devise some strategy, they can win."
"Well, then just be patient and wait. Maybe we can turn the tables."
Unexpectedly, at this moment, a piece of news popped up in front of everyone.
System: [Guild [Northern Capital] has chosen to surrender. This challenge has failed.]
System: [Guild [Sword and Rose] won the challenge, let us congratulate them]
Everyone:?
Surrender directly? Can you be any more cowardly?
Yuan Qinglan's eyes widened: "Brother! Why are you surrendering!"
Are you crazy? Giving up before the game even starts is so embarrassing!
The others were also puzzled when they saw this. Although they lost badly in the first game and were wiped out, they still had a chance. More people means an advantage. With a little preparation, they could probably win the second game. Why did the president give up so quickly?
The members looked at Bei Mingdu and Yuan Qinglan from a distance, hoping that they could give everyone an explanation.
Bei Mingdu glanced at the whispering members around him, his expression remaining calm. "I'm very sorry, everyone. I was abrupt this time. I'll explain the reason for my surrender later. Disband."
After saying that, he disappeared with Yuan Qinglan, leaving behind a group of members looking at each other in bewilderment and Sword and Rose who were also looking at each other in bewilderment.
"Good boy, I didn't realize they were so spineless and surrendered just like that!" the little frog teased.
"After all, there are more than 100 people. They gave up without even trying. I overestimated them before." Huang Cheng also shook his head.
However, Xia Yao felt that there was something fishy going on.
After all, they were the ninth-ranked guild. How could they possibly give up so easily? What must have happened to the other side that caused them to concede defeat?
However, she did not delve into their internal affairs. Anyway, the other party had surrendered, and the matter came to an end.
After the challenge is over, the port of Casalon will automatically return to its original appearance.
Xia Yao: "The level 20 illusion maze is now available for challenge. If you have time, follow me. Today's task is to clear the maze."
The Fantasy Maze has 30 floors in total and can only be entered by teams, with a maximum of 20 people.
There are only 11 people in their guild now, and the math, physics, and chemistry students were absent because they were busy with their homework, so 10 of them fully meet the requirements.
However, Sandaofu and Yunyan both raised their hands, indicating that they had other plans for the afternoon.
Three Buddhas: "Boss, I have now become the disciple of Master Ashaya, the master of medicine. She has a task that I have to do this afternoon."
Yunyan: "Me too... A client asked me when I would give him the ore. I want to go mining this afternoon."
Xia Yao nodded: "Okay, just focus on your own things."
So he took the remaining seven people and went to the fantasy maze outside the city.
On the other side, Bei Mingdu took his sister Yuan Qinglan directly to the wild. After looking around and making sure that there was no one nearby, he said coldly: "Tell me the truth."
"Ah...? What do you mean by telling the truth, brother?" Yuan Qinglan felt inexplicably guilty, and his eyes began to glance away unnaturally.
One look at that little stare and he knew it was a lie. Bei Ming couldn't help but turn even colder. "Are you sure you still want to hide this from me? Or do you want me to wait until I finish investigating it myself and throw the truth in your face before you admit it?"
Bei Mingdu has a cold and aloof appearance. When he doesn't speak, he gives people a sense of distance, not to mention that his tone is even more depressing at this moment.
Yuan Qinglan had never been afraid of anyone except her brother. Seeing that he was serious, she could only snort and said unhappily, "Since you've already guessed it, why are you still asking me?"
"Still talking back to me?"
"Yeah, yeah, I was rude to her. I won't hold it against the wild team thing, okay? But I really can't stand the ore theft, brother. The thief was right in my face, and you still want me to forgive her?"
"Have you ever considered that the ore wasn't taken by her?" Bei Mingdu stared at Yuan Qinglan, which made the latter begin to waver.
Yuan Qinglan: "Brother, you don't want to say that someone else stole it, do you...?"
Are you kidding? Who else would have the courage to do this except that female poet?
Bei Ming felt that his sister's intelligence really needed improvement. He sighed helplessly and softened his tone a little, "You know the quality of that ore. It's mixed. And look at her equipment slots, four in total. Do you think they were forged with the ore in our warehouse?"
He had just read the post on the forum by a miner named Yunyan. It was well-reasoned and there were screenshots of Hughes Highlands as evidence. It was obvious that the person had mined the ore himself, and then perhaps forged it himself, or gave it to another blacksmith to forge, so there were equipment slots on his body.
In short, no matter what the situation is, it is impossible that their ore was stolen.
His sister Yuan Qinglan was so impulsive in making such a fuss that he found that the guild's reputation had plummeted rapidly after he came online. Recently, all the players who had applied to join the guild through the background had disappeared, and some had even quit.
Bei Mingdu rubbed his brows and began to think about how to deal with this matter.
Yuan Qinglan came up and asked quietly, "Brother, who do you think stole our things?"
Bei Mingdu paused, turned to look at his sister, and suddenly realized something.
Yuan Qinglan was looked at like this by him and muttered: "I'm just asking, why are you looking at me like that..."
"Someone wants to kill two birds with one stone."
"What?" Yuan Qinglan was stunned.
"Qinglan, quickly make a list of the people who have resigned in the past few days. It wasn't her who stole the ore, but someone else."
Bei Mingdu had a gloomy face. He probably knew the other party's methods.
