Chapter 876 Chaos

Fight!

In front of Kieran's eyes, a fight belonging to the players was taking place.

Swords clashed, guns fired.

The screams continued, and the white light flashed.

In just a few minutes, more than twenty players died.

The cause of this battle was a garden in the distance.

A herbal garden that grows a variety of herbs and stores many semi-finished healing potions.

The herbal garden itself belongs to the 'broker'.

But after the 'broker' hid in his room, this place became ownerless. Even when Lawless and his people approached the place cautiously, they discovered that even the herb garden that was originally heavily guarded was already empty. No one was left, and everyone left.

What's left is a dazzling array of herbs and half-finished healing potions.

And it was these things that triggered this battle.

When a player was the first to put those herbs and semi-finished healing potions into his backpack, the battle broke out.

It only took less than two minutes to go from a small-scale battle with a few people to a guild battle.

"Damn it!"

"I feel like all this was deliberately arranged by that bastard 'broker'!"

"Not just these two guilds, there are such battles happening outside many of that bastard's industries!"

Lawless, who used private messages to get the latest news, cursed in a low voice, took a deep breath on his cigar, and asked, "What should I do?"

"That guy is more crisp than I thought!"

"Believe me, the 'broker' is not a guy who is willing to spit out all the profits he has received... Soon, he will take these things back, and he will also add interest!"

Qin Ran looked at the players fighting in the distance and said in a deep voice.

He knew very well that after such a fight, the guild composed of these players would be severely weakened. When faced with the counterattack of the 'broker', the combat effectiveness can be imagined.

If you don't collapse at the first touch, you have a foundation.

Apparently Lawless knows this too.

"I told the guys what's going on here and I hope they calm down a little bit."

With that said, Lawless began to contact those familiar guild leaders.

Looking at his friend, Qin Ran silently shook his head.

Everything in front of me can no longer be stopped by a few words of persuasion.

Want to stop the red-eyed player in front of you?

Unless he takes action himself now.

But Kieran believed that his joining would not only make no changes, but would also make the situation worse.

Moreover, Kieran guessed that the 'broker' wanted him, Lawless and others to be involved.

You must know that people die for wealth and birds die for food.

Kieran could already imagine what kind of rumors would arise if he stopped the killing among these players and 'monopolized' the benefits.

‘2567 Legendary equipment was discovered in the secret base of the ‘Broker’! ’

‘2567 Found the legendary skill book in the secret base of the ‘Broker’! ’

Such rumors will definitely spread like wildfire among players.

Qin Ran believed that since the 'broker' simply gave up these industries, he had already prepared everything.

There will even be one or two legendary items and skill books placed in some places.

However, Qin Ran didn't do nothing.

"Tell those guild leaders to pay attention to those people or forces who are the first to pick up things in the 'broker's' industry and provoke disputes. They may be the secrets left by the 'broker'."

Qin Ran said.

Lawless was stunned for a moment and then reacted immediately.

I quickly wrote all this as private messages and sent them to the guild leaders I knew well.

But the few replies said everything.

"These guys!"

Angry, Lawless slammed the wall next to him.

Whoosh, whoosh.

The heavy breathing made Lawless look like an angry bull.

It took more than ten seconds for Lawless to calm down.

"What exactly does the 'broker' want to do?"

After calming down, Lawless immediately thought of this problem.

"have no idea!"

"Do you know any of the people who work with the 'broker' in the 'Secret City'?"

Qin Ran shook his head.

Qin Ran really didn't know what the 'broker' did.

Even if there is a guess, it is just a guess.

Compared to such speculation, he prefers to start with reality and obtain more information.

"I don't!"

"But there's one guy who does!"

Lawless replied.

"Steinbeck?"

Kieran reacted immediately.

"Um."

"Come with me and we'll go talk to him."

Lawless said, turned around and walked towards the station.

Qin Ran quickly followed.

…

The meeting with Steinbeck went well.

In a seemingly ordinary villa with a garden, Kieran and Lawless met Steinbeck.

Of course, the 'ordinary' here refers to comparison with Steinbeck's identity.

In his original guess, Qin Ran thought that the other party lived in the palace.

Instead of standing in casual clothes, wearing an apron and holding gardening tools in a small garden.

Looking at Steinbeck, who was handling a potted plant with scissors and a watering can, Kieran was a little stunned. The mimosa under the backlight had an extremely peaceful atmosphere.

Just like a small white flower in the morning light.

Qin Ran raised his eyebrows and looked at his friend beside him.

Lawless walked over as if he was unconscious.

"Good day, Steinbeck."

"Can you introduce us to a few big shots in the 'Secret City' besides the 'broker'?"

After a simple greeting, Lawless said very directly.

"What happened?"

Steinbeck put down the gardening tools in his hands and looked at the lawless in puzzlement.

Lawless looked back at Qin Ran, and after Qin Ran nodded, he immediately explained what happened.

"So that's it."

Steinbeck let out a long sigh.

"you know?"

"Come on, tell me what happened?"

Lawless was stunned for a moment and immediately overjoyed.

"Feel sorry."

"I have a contractual relationship with the 'Broker'. I can't tell the third person about this - I didn't expect the 'Broker' to be so afraid of you in 2567."

"It seems that there is a high chance that you are the one!"

Steinbeck said apologetically.

Then, he looked at Qin Ran with a strange look.

This strange gaze made Qin Ran involuntarily think of the gaze of some people after seeing rare treasures.

Involuntarily, Qin Ran frowned.

But Steinbeck was not pushed any further.

As a player, he is well aware of the power of the 'contract'.

"hateful!"

"Damn profiteers!"

Lawless clenched his teeth and waved his fist.

Although he knew there was no malice, Steinbeck's character still made him shrink back in fright and almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Qin Ran who was on the side supported him.

"Thanks."

"My personality always causes trouble..."

Before the words fell, Steinbeck suddenly trembled all over his body, as if he had seen something terrible.

At the same time, Qin Ran only felt a heat in his arms.

The [Sword of Dawn (sub-volume)] flew out by itself.
