Chapter 1177 Undercurrent

The places marked on the map were not unfamiliar to Kieran.

Because that was almost the place where he last met Karls.

Kieran frowned when he thought of the guy who was still killed after returning to his room. He knew very well that the quiet now was just the calm before the storm.

The storm can come at any time.

And him?

It is necessary to accumulate more strength before the storm comes.

Thinking of this, Qin Ran didn't stay long and boarded the train directly to the outer city of the huge city.

…

In the dark room, the same five people gathered around the table.

"The latest news, 2567 went to the outer city to look for the 'Swordsmith' Islid."

One person said slowly.

"This is an opportunity."

The person opposite said in a deep voice.

"Chance?"

"The last time you sent someone to test it, you said it was an opportunity."

"But what's the result?"

"None of the several men I trained carefully came back, and moreover, they died in mysterious circumstances!"

The person on one side snorted coldly.

"At least their deaths had value."

"We know there are some guys hiding around."

The person in the corner said calmly.

"The reason why you can say such words calmly is because the person who died is not yours!"

The person who had snorted before said angrily.

"Those who are dead are already dead."

"We need to face it now."

"The four of us will come up with corresponding compensation for you, and then..."

"What should we do this time?"

The one who spoke first was obviously the leader of the five people. No one objected to what he said. Just like when he looked at the person who had not spoken from beginning to end, the eyes of the remaining three people were also confused. It fell on the person who seemed to be one with the shadow.

"Just wait and see what happens."

“Neither ‘Sword of Dawn’ 2567 nor ‘Swordsmith’ Islid are fools. If we really provoke a fight between them, what do you think will happen in the end?”

"More than 80 percent will be attacked by two people."

"Are you ready for a fight with these two?"

asked the man who merged with the shadow.

Following this question, the four people present fell silent.

The answer is obvious.

they do not.

Because they had to face not only the two powerful initiates, but also the guys behind them.

Think of those ‘loners’ in the Harvest Tavern?

Each of them seems to be a loner, but if you mess with one of them, especially if your relationship with Lawless is extremely good, you will definitely mess with a group.

Not to mention the tavern proprietress.

What the other party represents is already beyond the imagination of ordinary players.

As for the ‘Swordsmith’ Aslid?

The skills mastered by the other party have already destined a large group of people to be willing to cooperate with the other party.

A legendary long sword is enough for the initiate to join the opponent's camp and serve the other party.

"So what do we do?"

"The 'broker' guy finally made a miscalculation. We can't just sit here and do nothing, right?"

The slightly grumpy one broke the silence.

"Of course not."

"But we have to make changes!"

"Haven't you noticed that we focused too much on 2567?"

"I think that bastard 'Broker' is already smiling from ear to ear right now."

The man in the shadow said without changing his voice and maintaining a meticulous tone.

"2567 and the 'broker' are together?"

The man with a slightly grumpy temper said subconsciously, but as soon as he said it, he found that the remaining four people looked at him as if they were idiots.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm just talking about a possibility."

"Isn't this possible?"

Although the grumpy man knew that what he said was wrong, he had absolutely no intention of changing his words and started to mess around.

However, everyone here knew the other person's character, and no one paid any attention to him.

"What do we do now?"

asked the man in the corner.

"'protector'!"

"From the beginning to the end, the target of the 'broker' has been the 'guardian', or the 'witch's legacy'. 2567 and the killer player are just smoke bombs released by him."

"I'm afraid that guy has taken action now."

said the man in the shadows.

"Then we have to hurry up."

The leader's tone dropped.

No one wants to fall behind others.

One step behind, every step behind.

Everyone here knows this.

Especially when the person in the lead is a 'broker', it is even more unsettling.

"Don't rush."

"'Brokers' have their own way."

"We have our own way."

"We can't rush to catch up with the 'broker'. This will only make us fall into his rhythm and be led by his nose, just like the previous few times."

said the man in the shadows.

"you mean?"

The four of them looked at the person in the shadow at the same time.

"Using our rhythm disrupted the rhythm of the 'broker'."

"Then, let him get into our rhythm."

A chuckle came from the shadows.

…

Qin Ran stood on the edge of the huge city, looking at the blurry edge of the land in the distance.

There is not only darkness there, but also a kind of turbidity, like chaos, where a steady stream of robot teams are being built.

Brand new streets, brand new houses.

“This is about to become a normal neighborhood.”

"The new outer city is about to expand outward again."

Qin Ran looked at the houses that were quickly rising from the ground in front of him, thinking silently in his heart.

Until now, he didn't know what plan the huge city was developed according to.

population?

There are many players in a huge city, but it would be a joke to fill up the entire huge city.

In fact, there are only a few players on most streets of the huge city.

Only some gang gathering points and shop gathering points will cause crowding.

Under such a premise, population is obviously not number one.

Apart from this, Kieran really couldn't think of any other possibilities.

Kieran had no regrets about this.

He knows what he is good at and what he is not good at.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to the ‘swordsmith’ Eisley.

Dang, Dang, Dang!

The intensive knocking sound guided Qin Ran's direction.

After turning around a half-completed building, Kieran saw a tall man wielding a sledgehammer.

The other party was hitting a piece of iron with a sledgehammer.

The piece of iron, under the opponent's knock, turned into a sword at a speed visible to the naked eye, a long sword radiating cold light.

However, Qin Ran's eyes did not stop on the sword.

But...

He looked at the sledgehammer in the tall man's hand.

In Kieran's perception, the sledgehammer seemed to have become heavier and sharper.

That's right!

It’s sharp!

A blunt instrument has a sharp feel.

This strange feeling made Qin Ran frown.

But immediately, Qin Ran narrowed his eyes.
