Chapter 485 - 485: Bounty Orders, What Gave You the Courage? (2)
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he casually opened the chat channel and the forum, only to discover some posts about him.
More precisely, it was about the name “Ji Chen,” not the forum name “Islander.”
Based on a highly popular post, just a few hours ago, the Kingdom of Bass suddenly issued a wanted notice to players in the northwest coastal area, and the target was none other than him.
[Kingdom of Bass Wanted Notice]
[Target]: Ji Chen (Lord of Glory)
[Target’s Recent Location]: Lienhardt Grand Duchy, Feiguang City
[Reward]: Five million Aureus gold coins, one million units of rare resources, ten 2~4-star treasures
A wanted notice from the Kingdom of Bass?
Ji Chen thought for a moment. It was probably the surviving airborne forces that attacked Feiguang City, and they had transmitted information about him back.
The Kingdom of Bass didn’t choose to send troops to attack here again; instead, they publicly issued a wanted notice to cause him trouble?
Was it because they were angry about their failure in Feiguang City and wanted to eliminate him directly by using other players who were also Lords of Glory?
He could only say, “Wow.”
The reward amount was five million gold coins, one million units of rare resources, and ten treasures. Perhaps, for Ji Chen, this wasn’t much, not even enough to cover the cost of recruiting a round of units.
But for most players, this was a huge fortune that could make their hearts race and go crazy.
Just by looking at the comments below the post, he could tell how many people were tempted.
“Five million gold coins, one million units of rare resources!? Oh my god, I would die to have so many resources and money!”
“Is this player named Ji Chen his real name? What on earth did he do to incur the wrath of the Kingdom of Bass, such a kingdom-level power, to the point where they lowered their dignity and issued a wanted notice to hunt him down? Did he maybe flirt with the wife of some native noble and got a big noble cuckolded?”
“Haha, this reward is ours, the Edge Guild. Brother, please don’t blame us for going all out. We can only say that you provoked the wrong person.”
“Humph, this person is our Sea Tide Alliance’s target. Just stay in Feiguang City and wait for death. Don’t make us expend too much effort.”
This wanted notice had exploded among the solo players and player guilds near Lienhardt and the Kingdom of Bass, tempting countless people.
Among them, players who had chosen the Bass Kingdom faction in this war were the most excited.
Through the faction’s channels, they learned that if they killed this guy named Ji Chen, they could not only claim the reward but also receive the honor title conferred by the Kingdom of Bass.
In a world where tiers were strict, an honor title was something that money couldn’t buy. Fueled by such excitement, they were all boasting on the forums about taking his head within two days.
Amidst the chaotic clamor, only a few people could maintain their composure and think.
“Since the Kingdom of Bass has issued this wanted notice, doesn’t it mean that even they can’t handle this Ji Chen? They can only resort to a reward notice to seek help. I don’t think this guy is that simple.”
“I think the same. If he were so easy to kill, how could those natives, who are smarter than monkeys, be willing to offer so much?”
“+1,1 agree…”
However, these rational comments were quickly drowned out by the much larger clamor. Faced with such a huge reward amount, many players had lost some of their rationality and ability to think.
Watching more and more players flood into the post, creating a frenzy with thousands of comments, Ji Chen shook his head.
He really didn’t know what gave these players the courage. Even a bunch of them couldn’t muster three digits of fourth-tier units, let alone qualify for him to take them seriously.
Aren’t there any standards?
But he was somewhat puzzled. How did the Kingdom of Bass know it was him who was involved?
He remembered that, apart from briefly appearing when he finalized the giant waves at the end, he had hardly shown himself in front of the enemy… Could it be that those deceivers recognized him?
Ji Chen pondered for a moment and felt that this possibility was highly likely.
I_Love_Black_Stockings sent a message.
“Big Boss, what did you do to make the Kingdom of Bass target you like this?”
He replied casually.
“It’s not a big deal. I just helped the Lienhardt Grand Duchy withstand the Kingdom of Bass army’s attack.
Maybe because there were more casualties, so they issued the reward.”
I_Love_Black_Stockings, sitting in her Lord Manor, showed a subtle expression on her face when she reached this point.
She also had some understanding of the situation between the Kingdom of Bass and the Lienhardt Grand Duchy, but the war had been going on for several days, and many players were involved in the conflict between the two nations. However, she never heard of any player being so specifically targeted by a kingdom-level power and even rewarded with such a huge amount of resources.
She had a faint feeling that there should be quite a few soldiers from the Kingdom of Bass who had died at the hands of this boss; otherwise, they wouldn’t be so desperate.
Seeing so many players on the forum saying they wanted to trouble Ji Chen, I_Love_Black_Stockings quickly wrote:
“Big Boss, those players clamoring to find you don’t even know that you are actually Ji Chen. I’ll immediately clarify this misunderstanding with them, and they probably won’t dare to continue..”
