Chapter 47 46- The Arrogant Wolf Guild
Chapter 47 Chapter46- The Arrogant Wolf Guild
John had not been out of Brambleburg for long.
And Riverlo ran into trouble.
Just after leaving the tavern, he was cornered in a small alley by several thug-like members of the Wolf Guild.
"You can't fight in Northwood, don't you know that?"
Riverlo, seeing himself surrounded from the front and back, regretted not informing his guild members in the city to act together.
The Wolf Guild leader, whose player ID was "Starving Wolf," was a lean tall man.
He grinned at Riverlo and said, "Kid, rules are of no use to us Wolf Guild folks, you must know this, right?"
After speaking, the followers behind him all burst out laughing.
Another player ID named "Grey Wolf" drew a dagger, sneering:
"As long as the patrolling guards in the city don't see us, we're good, right?"
Riverlo calmly said:
"Do you think I will sit and wait for death? Once I fight back, it will inevitably cause a lot of commotion, and the patrolling guards will surely notice the abnormality here!"
Starving Wolf shrugged indifferently:
"Fight back? How do you fight back if we don't make a move? If you attack us first, the patrolling guards will be the ones to catch you."
Riverlo looked disgustedly at him and frowned: "What do you want?"
"No big deal, it's just that we, the Wolf Guild, have a tradition," Starving Wolf sneered, "that is, whoever offends our guild, we must torment him until he completely submits!"
Grey Wolf added: "Our Guild Leader said you must crawl on your knees all the way from Northwood to apologize to him, aren't you hurrying to do it? How long do you want our leader to wait for you?"
Riverlo was so angry that his hands began to shake.
He gritted his teeth and said: "Your leader led people to snatch our wild BOSS, killed our entire team, and now wants me to apologize to him?"
"Heh," Grey Wolf said,
"because you dared to 'fight back'. For us in the Wolf Guild, anyone who dares to fight back must be punished! Otherwise, others won't fear us, what then?"
Riverlo was encountering such shameless guys for the first time, any reason was useless against them.
"Then make your move. I want to see what you can do to me in Northwood!"
Originally, Riverlo had been prepared to deal with the siege of the Wolf Guild.
At worst, he would just die and lose some Exp.
But if they thought he, Riverlo, would lose his dignity, kneel and beg for mercy, they were dreaming!
Starving Wolf pursed his lips and said,
"We gave you a chance, heh... we heard that your guild is arranging people to challenge the Treant BOSS in a forest east of Northwood, aren't they?"
"We also heard... your sister is among those people?"
On hearing this, Riverlo became furious instantly.
"How dare you!"
His eyes were filled with bloodshot veins.
If it weren't for being in Northwood, he would have already lunged at them.
Grey Wolf laughed loudly with his gang: "We are the Wolf Guild, is there anything we dare not do?"
"I've heard that your sister is quite the looker, tsk tsk... It's a pity that we can't meet her in real life, but it would be quite interesting to have some 'fun' with her in the game, wouldn't it? Hahaha..." Grey Wolf laughed lasciviously.
Unable to bear it any longer, Riverlo drew his bow and arrow from behind, preparing to shoot.
As a hunter, he couldn't summon his pets in town, so he had to fight on his own.
Just as Riverlo was about to take action, a voice interrupted him.
"What are you doing?!" The source of the voice was a guard NPC who happened to be patrolling the area.
This guard was level 65, and no one present was a match for him.
Starving Wolf smiled at the guard, pointing at Riverlo:
"Officer, this guy wanted to shoot us in the city, aren't you going to arrest him?"
The NPC guard glanced at Starving Wolf and then walked into the alley, looking around.
From the looks of it, it was clear that Starving Wolf and his group were the ones stirring trouble, deliberately provoking Riverlo.
The NPC guard, although an AI, wasn't stupid.
He could tell at a glance who the root of the problem was.
"Did he shoot you? Hasn't he not yet? If there's nothing going on, leave immediately! Don't cause trouble in Northwood!"
The NPC guard warned the members of the Wolf Guild.
Starving Wolf shrugged:
"Well, okay, you're the guard, you're the boss."
After saying that, he waved his hand.
The people from the Wolf Guild followed Starving Wolf and left.
As they left, they glared maliciously at Riverlo and the NPC guard.
In their view, once their levels rise higher than the guards in the city, they would surely get their payback.
By then, they would make this guard regret his actions today!
After watching the members of the Wolf Guild leave, the NPC guard said to Riverlo: "They've all left, you can put your bow and arrow down."
Breathing heavily, his face filled with anger, Riverlo closed his eyes to calm down before finally lowering his bow.
He knew that even if he had shot the arrow at the Wolf Guild, it would be of no use.
On the contrary, he might have been arrested by the guard, confined at best, or sentenced to be expelled from the city and labeled an "unwelcome person" at worst.
The loss would be too great.
The most urgent thing now was to save his sister and those uninformed guild members!
He nodded at the NPC guard and said, "Thank you."
Then he prepared to leave.
He went to the pet care center and collected his war beast—a large white dog that had accompanied him since the game began, very loyal.
"Let's go, Whitty, we have to save them!"
The dog barked excitedly, Whitty was its name, it could sense the anger of its master, and it had confidence in defeating any enemy.
A man and a dog arrived at the entrance of Northwood.
Riverlo waited for five minutes, only to find that none of the guild members he had contacted had arrived.
He didn't have the patience to wait any longer.
Every minute he lingered, the greater the danger his sister might be in.
Although the game had provided female players the right to log out immediately when in danger, to take care of them, Riverlo was still very worried.
Because the forest where the Treant was located had the ability to block communication, Riverlo could not notify her in advance.
He was now afraid of the unscrupulous members of the Wolf Guild launching a surprise attack, which would have unimaginable consequences.
When he left the city gate, Riverlo was extremely careful.
He was mentally prepared for an ambush at the gate.
Unexpectedly, nobody attacked him at the gate...
This was not like the Wolf Guild's style.
Just as Riverlo was puzzled, the appearance of a person surprised him greatly.
"Galewind? Is that you?"
John walked in front of Riverlo, dusted off his hands, and said with his hands on his hips, "There were a few people from the Wolf Guild lurking at the city gate as if they were waiting for someone. They even dared to taunt me as I was passing by, so I took care of all of them..."
"Right now, I guess all of them are stunned in the respawn pool."
John's casual words shocked Riverlo greatly.
Having dealt with the Wolf Guild over the past few days, Riverlo knew very well that although these people were bastards, they were extremely strong.
Otherwise, no one would have been able to deal with their arrogance.
The members of the Wolf Guild were all top players, and the weakest among them had to be at least level 40.
And now...
John had taken them all out all by himself?
Seeing Riverlo in a daze, John laughed and said, "What's up? Network lag?"
Riverlo shook his head and said, "You... how are you so strong?"
John said, "I never said I was weak."
"But didn't you say your level was low..."
"Having a low level doesn't mean you're weak."
John argued, and then changed the subject, "Looking at you rushing out, do you have something urgent to do?"
John's words immediately reminded Riverlo.
He slapped his forehead and said anxiously:
"I almost forgot because of you! Let's go! We have to save my sister!"
