Chapter 373: The Forthcoming Battle With Victoria City

“Here! Here! Put more rocks here!”

Dragonborn stood on a City Wall and directed the Guild members to move rocks to designated locations. They were building a portion of the City Wall that was assigned to their Guild, For that night with Sherlock.

The previous wooden wall was used temporarily to defend against wild beasts. Before it was completed, the gamers weren’t happy with the wooden walls. How could the grand Victoria City use wood to make its City Walls?

They had to use rocks!

The gamers started proposing this on the forum. The designer gamers came up with a simple construction method for the City Walls, and they also planned the location based on the size of the city.

This matter had to be discussed with Duchess Lilo. Otherwise, it would cost money to buy the land.

Lilo wasn’t concerned about the usage of land, she was only concerned about making the gamers powerful and using the crystal ball to spy on Sherlock.

As far as the applications to use the land were concerned, Lilo approved all of them.

The gamers were passionate in their work even though there were no rewards. It wasn’t a problem for the sandbox building gamers.

Victoria City only had the Ogre Fortress Instance Dungeon, the Sighing Wilderness, and the Spiders’ Lair for the gamers to explore.

The requirements for the Ogre Fortress were too high. Though Dragonborn was qualified, his Reputation Level wasn’t. Within a short time, none of the gamers of Victoria City would be able to enter the Ogre Fortress. The new Instance Dungeon was made for the gamers of Eternal Kingdom.

“Dragonborn! Did you see the posts on the discussion forum? Hoodlum’s Weapon Level is at 10!”

A Human quickly ran over to Dragonborn and shouted, attracting the attention of other gamers.

“Impossible. Isn’t Hoodlum currently captured and being kept as a slave? How can a slave train up their Weapon Level? And his Weapon Level is higher than Arthur? Is he bluffing?” TakeASpearHit commented condescendingly.

“Yes, perhaps he was online every day just to train his combat skills. Didn’t he do other things? I don’t believe it.”

SealHeadLingChong was skeptical, but the person who read the post shouted, “It’s real! The forum post has a screenshot of his attributes. Take a look at Hoodlum’s post.”

“Let’s take a look!”

TakeASpearHit intended to go offline to take a look. It was then that he heard a “Swoosh” sound and saw blood splattering in front of him. An arrow had penetrated his chest.

“Holy cow…”

TakeASpearHit cursed and sat down slowly on a stack of rocks. Grotesque blood dripped all over the place, and he perished.

There were sounds of galloping hooves. Within the forest, Edward Scissorhand wielded a Bow as he took aim at Dragonborn, who was on the wall. With a “Swoosh” sound, the arrow penetrated Dragonborn’s throat, and he collapsed to the ground.

Edward Scissorhand noticed that Dragonborn was their leader. Him going outside the city boundary to construct the City Walls was careless!

Edward Scissorhand knew that he had to seize the opportunity, so he led his bandits and charged out while they held the upper hand. Edward Scissorhand was right, as there were no reinforcements from Victoria City.

The Guild For that night with Sherlock only had 100 members, and less than 50 members were building the City Walls. As it was at the border area, it was far from Victoria City. The forest didn’t have wild beasts, so the gamers wouldn’t go over there. Most of the gamers traveled to the Sighing Wilderness or the Spiders’ Lair via the Teleport Portal to obtain materials, earn Reputation Points, complete missions, and increase their Weapon Levels.

Only those gamers who were allocated the mission to construct the City Walls and those interested individual gamers would be here.

Edward Scissorhand was merciless. With only tens of bandits, he killed everyone except for one prisoner.

That Human, who had green symbols above his head, laid on the ground while spitting blood. He lifted his hand with great effort, wanting to end his life with a Dagger, but he didn’t have enough strength. He scolded, “Gosh, why isn’t there a self-destruct or suicide setting? Do they want me to die slowly?”

“Hey, to have a quick death, answer our questions. Otherwise, I’ll let you suffer for a few days before dying.”

Edward Scissorhand squatted down, using his large scissors to cut the person’s fingers. Edward Scissorhand expected him to moan in pain, but that didn’t occur. That person examined his cut fingers and looked at Edward Scissorhand in a daze as he said, “What’s up? A Strange Encounter Mission?”

“Be honest! Answer our boss!” another bandit shouted loudly.

“I understand, I’ll cooperate with you. Please capture me and heal me, then sell me to a Slave Merchant. I’ll be a powerful Gladiator! Let me go through training! I’ll have Weapon Level 10 like Hoodlum—!” the dying Human gamer continued shouting.

“What is this situation? How does he know about Hoodlum? How does he know that we sold Hoodlum to a Slave Merchant?” Edward Scissorhand looked furiously at him. He was greatly astonished.

There must be a mole! A traitorous bandit must have divulged everything to Victoria City. Otherwise, how could Victoria City know?

Perhaps Hoodlum used a special method to communicate with them in secret? However, it wasn’t possible!

“I’ll tell you everything. We have 5,000 citizens who are mostly at the Sighing Wilderness. The city is now empty. If you walk south for twenty minutes, you’ll reach the city. Believe me! At 4 to 5 am, I guarantee that there will be the least number of people. Take me with you, please. Let me be a slave! Let me be a slave… slave…”

The voice of the gamer became weaker until he had no more breath. He didn’t die, and he was panting from time to time as he stared at Edward and the bandits with his large eyes.

“Boss, what he said matches Hoodlum’s words. Hoodlum said that there are 5,000 of them and suggested that we attack at 4 to 5 am. What shall we do?” a bandit walked over and asked.

Edward Scissorhand pondered for a while and asked, “How many bandits do we have?”

“At our Stronghold, there are 2,000 of us gathered from all directions.”

“Two thousand bandits… it’s sufficient! We’ll prepare tonight and set off at 4 am to attack Victoria City! A dying person has no reason to deceive us. This is a good opportunity. If we’re successful, the wealth of Victoria City and the thousands of slaves will be ours!”

Edward lifted his arms and looked around viciously as he said, “I know you’re worried after our last attack because we couldn’t defeat them. However, we only had 200 bandits. This time, we have 2,000. They won’t be our match. So what if they’re fearless? We’ll use our Bows to kill all of them!”

“Boss is correct!”

“Kill all of them!”

“Rob them! Capture them as slaves!”

The bandits cheered wildly before Edward Scissorhand led them away. The time was ripe. Though they didn’t know where the Sighing Wilderness was, they didn’t see the group of Humans, Fairies, and Elves moving around. This was the best chance!

The bandits gave the dying gamer a quick death before leaving.

The bandits didn’t know that after the gamer perished, he walked out from the Teleport Portal naked and sounded the alarm. Then, he collapsed to the ground. He had gone offline to create a post on the discussion forum.

The gamers of Victoria City were excited. They thought the game producers had forgotten about them. The gamers captured a few horses in the previous bandit attack. This time, the gamers wanted to have more horses. After all, those were free horses!

Edward Scissorhand didn’t know that a nightmare awaited them.

…

Lancelot was nervously preparing for war by digging ditches, setting traps, and accumulating combustible items at the center of the city. The wooden planks of doors were stripped to be used as Shields against arrows. There were also sand and water jars for fighting fires. The most common mode of attack was incendiary attacks. If Lancelot was Edward Scissorhand, he would fire off a volley of incendiary arrows. When chaos reigned, the riders and troops would charge in.

So all the preventive measures had to be taken.

Lancelot wasn’t worried about whether they would lose. The bandits only had 2,000 members to fight against the 5,000 citizens of Victoria City who were blessed by God Almighty and were fearless. The bandits had no chance of victory!

That was what Lancelot believed.
