The Three Major Guilt Joined Forces

"Damn it, who is Heavenly Cloud? He slayed a Boss in such a short time. Which guild is he in?"

"He doesn't have a guild prefix, so it shows that he is an unaffiliated player. Could it be that it was a sole player, and he had snatched the Boss from the guild?"

"That's impossible. I think this might be a trap. The solo player made such a move to gain fame and then planned to join one of the guilds. That will save the guilds plenty of advertisement fee."

"D*mn. Now that you mention it, it is possible. These guilds have many tricks up their sleeves."

"Does anyone have any more specific information? Can you reveal it?"

"There's a reward for Heavenly Cloud's personal information."

The news kept refreshing on the world chat room. Players said many things in the chat room, but those were only their guesses about Su Jin.

In the Novice Village's resurrection point, the guild players gathered there saw the announcement. Everyone had a complicated expression on their faces. One of them would have gotten the fame and reward if it weren't because of that unexpected circumstances.

The lower-level members sighed a few times before they stopped caring. Instead, they waited for the upper-levels to make a decision.

The upper levels of the guilds suffered the most loss.

Tyrant Knight frowned as he looked at Nocturnal Cat, the guild president of the Assassin's Guild. Nocturnal Cat did not say anything. Instead, he nodded slightly. The two of them instantly reached a tacit agreement.

"Rose, Greed Wolf, what do you think? Are you two going to forget the humiliation and act humbly in front of a sole player in the future?"

"How is that possible?" Greed Wolf couldn't accept that and retort.

However, Scarlet Rose did not say a single word. It was as if she was trying her best to recall something.

Fury stroke Tyrant Knight. Scarlet Rose's reaction displeased him. They were the presidents of guilds and seldom gathered. He was unhappy that Scarlet Rose didn't state out her opinion or join forces with them when all of them were now in such a state.

If not for the fact that the strength of the two guilds was equal, Tyrant Knight would have scolded Scarlet Rose in public.

After waiting for a while, Scarlet Rose regained her senses and raised her head, saying, "I've decided. Rosette Guild will not participate in this matter, and neither will we participate in any of these in the future."

"You can go ahead if you want to teach Heavenly cloud a lesson."

After saying this, she turned to look at Greedy Wolf and said, "I suggest that you join me. What's the point of bullying a sole player? Don't tell me that the two guilds are unable to defeat a sole player?"

Tyrant Knight was displeased and said, "This isn't a matter of strength. It's a matter of attitude. If you don't care, then, of course, you don't have to express your opinion. If you do, then you have to say a few words. Don't you tell me that you are going to do nothing and take advantage of the situation while we do the job?"

Scarlet Rose ignored him. She waved her hand and led her guild members away.

Greed Wolf hesitated for a moment. But, in the end, he did not leave with Scarlet Rose.

He could be an ally or an enemy of the Rosette Guild. Today, he had been slain by the sole player, and many of his equipment had taken. He wouldn't let go of this matter easily. Their guild could not recruit new members if this humiliation spread into rumors.

In the end, the three guilds stayed behind and decided to deal with Su Jin. The guild presidents had exchanged contact numbers so they could communicate easily.

In their opinion, even though Heavenly Cloud was powerful, he wasn't someone they couldn't defeat.

If the three guilds worked together to slay him, they would be able to vent their anger and solve the threat in the future.

Meanwhile, Scarlet Rose led her guild members out of the resurrection point. The entire party was silent. Although no one complained, everyone had the same thought.

The solo player had slain the guild players for no reason. Their president refused revenge on the sole player. Sure enough, most of the guild players weren't happy about it.

"President, you can reject other players' offers without any explanation. But, at least, you have to tell us why you did that, right? Why should thousands of players in our guilds have to be afraid of Heavenly Cloud?"

"That's right. The solo player is just taking the opportunity to ambush us. We might be able to slay him if we fought face to face."

"Our guild and the other three guilds can take control of the Novice Village. Why should be afraid of a sole player?"

"President, are you having a crush on the guy? You have met him only once."

"He is only a sole player. Why would you be afraid of him?"

Halfway through their journey back, the members of the Rosette Guild could no longer hold themselves back. Every one of them impatiently asked, trying to understand the reason behind Scarlet Rose's decision.

"Everyone, calm down. We have to trust our president," The vice president spoke out, but she didn't say much.

As the leader, the vice president had to maintain the order. However, that did not stop her from wanting to know the reason as well.

If they did not get a reasonable reason that day, the trust of the players they had previously accumulated would gradually fade away. No one would commit themselves to the guild anymore in the future.

Scarlet Rose smiled bitterly and turned around. After a moment of silence, she said, "Everyone, calm down."

"I know how you feel. After all, Heavenly Cloud had slain me too, and Heavenly Cloud was the one who slayed me."

"I didn't allow you guys to deal with Heavenly Cloud or even go and deal with him myself because he is not someone we can defeat easily. It's better for us not to offend him."

"The first time I saw that guy was at the entrance of the Novice Village. He was buying Wild Boar Tusks. After that, we instantly met him slaying the Boss. The time interval between the two incidents wasn't long, but Heavenly Cloud's equipment and level were far ahead of us."

"Then he had two skills. One of it was something like a stealth mode, and the other was a range attack skill."

"The appearance of these two types of skills had broken the balance in the Novice Village. I can't think of other possibilities, except for he had accomplished some hidden quest."

"If Heavenly Cloud hadn't obtained the stealth mode skill, I would have been the first person to agree to deal with him. However, now that he has obtained the skill, there's nothing we can do about him."

"We can kill him and get his equipment, but the skill will still stay with him. The Rosette Guild couldn't afford the loss of wasting more time. Your levels will stagnate, and eventually, others could surpass you. That will affect your development in the real world. It's better to avoid that from happening."

"For example, what if when we were dealing with the Boss just now, I joined forces with the other three guilds and slayed Heavenly Cloud when his skills were colling down. After that, his stealth mode skill will recover, and he'll use it and kill us again. I'm sure you know how it would end, at last, don't you?"

The Rosette Guild players fell silent as they thought twice about the things Scarlet Rose had just said.

"That will lead to an endless cycle. Heavenly Cloud's level is much higher than ours. His basic attack damage is high, and his equipment will only advance. However, it would be the same no matter we had a weapon or not. He could still kill us with a single slash."

"We'll kill him once. He will kill us for revenge. If it causes grudge to grow, he will eventually destroy our guild."

The vice president spoke out her thoughts after pondering for a while.

"No," Scarlet Rose shook her head slightly and said, "You're talking about the best outcome. If the situation is slightly worse, it'll be Heavenly Cloud slaying all of us."

"There is a huge difference in our level and equipment. Moreover, Heavenly Cloud's skills are way better than ours. We can't stop him."

"He will become the strongest assassin and warrior."

Assassin amongst warriors?

The members of the Rosette Guild remained silent. However, they felt more eased than just now.

Indeed, someone had slain the players because they were battling the Boss this time. It was a normal situation. So, it was best for them to forgive and forget. They felt it was unnecessary to ruin their future because they wanted revenge.

The higher authorities of New World didn't reveal any information about this game, but everyone had their guesses.

"Then what if Heavenly Cloud thought we are weaklings and targets for us the next time?" One of the members asked loudly from behind the crowd of players.

Scarlet Rose's gaze turned cold and merciless as she said without hesitation, "If there's a next time and he targets us, then I'll personally take the lead and fight Heavenly Cloud!"
