Chapter 162: The Advancing Gray-clad Men!
“Indeed.”
After Luo Wu Shang finished her explanation, Chen Ya nodded, feeling there was nothing wrong with it.
“This time the loot is quite a lot. Let’s wait a bit for the resurrected ones to come back.” Luo Wu Shang said as she searched Dibos’s corpse.
“Alright, we can also take a proper rest.”
Chen Ya happily began stripping the remaining two young masters’ corpses.
The harvest from this battle was no worse than what they had gotten from Emerald Sky, and they had even earned a B-grade battle armor that Emerald Sky did not have. It could be called quite a fruitful haul.
But the most profitable part was that they had triggered a new plot this time.
The three great families of the City of Light Chasing besieging the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall. Just thinking about it felt thrilling.
On the distant high slope on the other side, Rosalina and the others from the Liu Sen Gang looked at the corpses of all the members of the four major powers who had been wiped out. They remained silent for a long time, unable to say a single word.
“Boss Rosa, should we rob them?” The forest tribe youth stared at the loot scattered all over the valley road, swallowed, and whispered a suggestion. “They only have twelve people left now, and ten of them still can’t move. We have nearly a hundred brothers here. We have a real chance to take them down!”
At this moment, the other Liu Sen Gang members, after hearing this, looked toward those A6-grade battle armors in the distance, as well as the large number of B2-grade weapons, especially the B-grade battle armor worn by Luo Wu Shang and Chen Ya. They also started to itch for action.
“Go right ahead.” Rosalina glanced at the forest tribe youth, nodded, patted his shoulder encouragingly, and said, “I’ll be here waiting for your good news.”
“Boss Rosa, you’re not coming?” The forest tribe youth was stunned.
Among this group, only Rosa was a martial artist. The others, though all apprentices, had only a bit more than twenty advanced apprentices among them, and they did not even have a single set of A6-grade battle armor. If they really had to face Luo Wu Shang or Chen Ya, each of them would be taken out in one blow.
“You really are my good brothers.” Rosalina swept her gaze over the Liu Sen Gang members who were all looking at her, glaring as she said, “You only come to me when there’s trouble, huh?”
“Boss Rosa, if you don’t act, how would we dare?” The forest tribe youth said awkwardly.
“Alright, we are leaving. We can’t stay here any longer. On the way, notify those active in other areas of Maple Forest Town and tell them not to operate near Maple Forest Town anymore,” Rosalina quietly instructed. “Especially tell them to watch out for those humans wearing silver-gray clothing. If they don’t want to die, stay as far away from them as possible.”
The members of the Liu Sen Gang all nodded, feeling that this place truly was no longer somewhere they could remain.
The more they looked, the more terrifying it felt.
First, more than a thousand people from the four major powers in the suburbs of the City of Light Chasing carried out a robbery. Then those same more than a thousand people from the four major powers were completely wiped out by that group of humans wearing silver-gray clothing.
Such a terrifying battle could even rank as one of the most shocking battles in Star Tower City in more than ten years, yet it had ended silently on this valley road.
And they did not even know what the human faction that wiped out the four major powers was called.
A bizarre battle like this was absolutely not something a wilderness gang like them could get involved in. Once they got entangled, the entire Liu Sen Gang would likely be annihilated in an instant.
“Boss Rosa, it looks like more people are coming over there!”
Just as the forest tribe youth was about to turn and leave, he suddenly noticed several transport vehicles at the other end of the valley, and quite a few people getting out.
“What is going on with this valley today?”
After hearing this, Rosalina raised her telescope and looked toward the figures moving about two kilometers away.
She saw that, although there were not many of them, at most 41 in total, each wore A6-grade armor, and their movement speed was astonishingly fast, or rather, eerie.
According to the detector, most of them had not even reached quasi-martial artist level. Even if they used martial skills, their speed should only be a bit over thirty meters per second.
But based on their actual speed, Rosalina, as an archer, was very sure their movement speed exceeded forty meters per second, with the fastest even reaching forty-five meters per second, close to the level of an advanced martial artist.
And these people stopped seven to eight hundred meters away from the transport convoy, doing something while they observed.
“How can this be!”
“What on earth happened here?”
Mans, wearing a black cloak, stared in shock at the road ahead, which was covered in the corpses of members of the four major powers. His eyes were full of fear and confusion.
The White Feather Gang was well aware of the four major powers joining hands to rob this convoy; they had been the ones to orchestrate it.
But they did not know how many people the four major powers would send.
Yet the scene before him truly terrified Mans.
On the gravel road nearly fifty meters wide and nearly three hundred meters long, it was now filled with corpses. Blood had turned the entire road into a flowing stream. He did not even dare imagine how many people had to die to create such a hellish scene.
“Captain Mans, did you find those three young masters?” The one-eared man in B1-grade battle armor came forward and asked.
“Yes. Over there. See for yourself.” Mans nodded, pointed to a spot by the roadside a kilometer away, and handed his telescope to the one-eared man.
As the one-eared man took the telescope and looked, he could not help but draw in a sharp breath.
“How many people did the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall kill?”
Looking at the road filled with corpses, even though he was a suicide squad member cultivated by the White Feather Gang, having experienced countless slaughters, the scene before him still shocked him.
Even the three young masters of the three great families had been mercilessly killed, and although those three young masters were clearly dead, their faces were still full of terror. It was clear that, before they died, they had experienced unimaginable fear.
“What do we do now?” the one-eared man could not help asking Mans. “Those three have already been killed by people from the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, and there is not a single survivor among the four major powers. Now we don’t even have a way to frame them.”
“It is indeed troublesome.” Mans fell into deep thought.
Originally, the White Feather Gang had thought this battle would end in mutual damage. They would take the chance to frame someone. After the three young masters died, the people of the four major powers would definitely fall into chaos, and then they would send the news back to each family.
But they had not expected the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall to be so ruthless, directly wiping out everyone from the four major powers, without a single survivor. Now, the news was actually harder to spread.
And even if this result did get out, would the four major powers believe it?
So many experts from the four major powers wiped out by a wilderness gang like the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall. Even people who shoot movies would not dare film such a plot.
“There is no other way. Record all the footage here and post it online later,” Mans said after thinking for a moment. “Since the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall people appear in the footage, no matter what they say, they will not be able to clear their suspicion. As for what the four major powers will do, that is not our concern.”
The one-eared man nodded, feeling that this was indeed the only option now.
If the White Feather Gang delivered the news themselves, the four major powers would only see it as part of a conspiracy against them, and the White Feather Gang would likely be considered one of the culprits.
But if it spread on the internet of the City of Light Chasing, then it would not be directly connected to the White Feather Gang. As for whether the four major powers would deem the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall responsible, that did not matter.
Because even if they were only implicated, the four major powers would never let the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall off easily.
Soon Mans and the others began secretly filming in all sorts of ways, even recording videos of how the people from the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall stripped the corpses of the four major powers’ members, leaving the Obsidian Martial Arts Hall with no way to wash their hands of it.
After a few minutes of filming, Mans and the others quickly returned to the City of Light Chasing, afraid of being seen by people from other factions.
“Boss Rosa, what do you think they were secretly filming over there for? What is there to film?” The forest tribe youth watched Mans and the others leave, utterly puzzled.
The battle was already over. What was the point of filming this kind of video?
Just to make a ‘we were here’ souvenir?
“Genius. They are absolute geniuses. How did I not think of that?” Rosalina smacked her thigh, her eyes shining. “Quick, we’ll film too. Make sure we capture everything clearly. We can get rich selling this later!”
“Get rich by filming?” The forest tribe youth was stunned.
Weren’t they in the robbery business?
Was it appropriate to make films like this?
“You idiot. Don’t you see how many people from the major suburban powers died here?” Rosalina glared at the forest tribe youth. “How many factions in the suburbs of Star Tower City do you think could pull off something like this?”
“Probably none.” The forest tribe youth thought about it and realized there really were none.
“Exactly.” Rosalina laughed loudly. “More than a thousand people from the four major powers of the City of Light Chasing suddenly wiped out. Don’t you think the major factions of Star Tower City will be interested in knowing which faction did this?”
“But we can’t just sell it to those factions. We also have to make it into a documentary and sell it online. I’m sure a ton of people will be willing to buy it. I’ve even thought of the title: Attack on the Grey-Clothed Ones!”
