Chapter 149: Pre-war Trade
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi, who liked to conquer everything with force, was most afraid of people who liked to play tricks.
These people hid knives behind their smiles. One slight carelessness would cause them to be played beyond redemption.
Towards such people, Li Yi tried his best to keep a distance from them.
This was also the real reason why Misty Rain Guild had always been avoided. However, now that they had come looking for Li Yi, there was no way to avoid them.
Now that they had exposed the other party’s scheme to sow discord, they originally thought that they would have an advantage. However, there was not a trace of displeasure on Misty World’s face. On the contrary, he looked even more confident.
Such a scene could not help but make Li Yi suspect that the other party still had a backup plan.
After thinking for a while, the sword in Li Yi’s hand stabilized.
“Carefree Dream, you don’t have to be so nervous. In fact, I don’t have any ill intentions.”
Misty World seemed to have seen through the fear in Li Yi’s heart. With both hands behind his back, he took another step towards Li Yi.
Li Yi’s body unconsciously retreated. He realized that his presence was a little weaker than Misty World. Li Yi mustered up his courage and took another step back.
Dream Seeker stood behind Li Yi and faced Misty World together with Li Yi.
The two of them were clearly characters with strong combat strength. However, when faced with this unarmed person who had flaws all over his body, they were as cautious as if they were facing a great enemy.
The two of them could be considered experienced and skilled, but when faced with Misty World, it was as if a transparent glass was being held in someone’s hand. There was the risk of being smashed at any time or place.
Now, they decided not to act rashly. The best strategy was to act according to the circumstances.
“Since you said that you have no enmity, then what do you mean by this provocation?”
“It’s just a simple test.”
“Test? You clearly know everything about me, so why are you testing me?”
Li Yi knew very well in his heart that this person in front of him could even know when and where he was, so he must have arranged for someone to be by his side to constantly monitor him.
However, he had no idea of this at all. Now, he could only judge how much the other party knew about him through underlying words, so that he could prepare a countermeasure in the future.
“I don’t really know everything. I just have some preliminary understanding of who you are.”
Of course, Li Yi would not believe his nonsense.
“I’m just an ordinary player. How did I attract the attention of the great Guild Leader of Misty Rain Guild?”
Li Yi probed once more.
“You can say that about yourself. To be able to obtain the recognition of the West Wind Knight’s Commander and be the only person in the entire server to form a small squad, how can such a person be ordinary?”
Li Yi had never mentioned the matter of forming a small squad. He did not even tell Sun Conqueror about this at all. It could be deduced that Misty World was highly intelligent and had a thorough understanding of who Li Yi was.
Moreover, since Misty World was able to say it, it meant that he knew more than this information. The things that he said were suspiciously and accurately correct that made Li Yi shiver.
Only by relying on words to gather information was never Li Yi’s strong point. Moreover, the other party looked completely at ease. If this continued, he was afraid that he would be completely led to the other party’s palm.
Li Yi turned his head and gave a look to Dream Seeker.
Dream Seeker nodded and once again disappeared without a trace.
Misty Martial World sighed and shook his head.
“You fighters never know how to talk it out.”
As he spoke, he had already jumped up on the spot, took out his magic staff, and threw a Fireball at where he had been with a loud bang!
After a loud sound, a thick layer of smoke appeared on the originally empty ground, which was mixed with the smell of gunpowder.
Not far away, Clutch King and the others immediately gripped their weapons to help.
Suddenly, Misty Moon appeared in front of Clutch King.
“Shadow Clone!”
With a turn, Clutch King instantly split into three, and Misty Moon could not instantly tell who was real and who was not.
Snow Chaser pulled Winnie over and immediately caught up to the fight as she summoned a Fireball to attack Misty World head-on.
It was at this moment that Misty World, who was still in the air, had already summoned a Fireball to counter-attack Snow Chaser’s attack.
It just so happened to collide with Snow Chaser’s Fireball and canceled out each other’s attacks.
Li Yi, who stood on the side, had a look of admiration in his eyes.
To be able to launch a surprise attack on the invisible Dream Seeker the moment he got up and to prevent Snow Chaser from launching a surprise attack on Misty Moon in advance, this kind of awareness was not easy to come by.
With Misty Moon blocking Snow Chaser and Winnie, the two of them had no time to spare. After all, Misty Moon was already level 24, and the difference in levels could still play a role in suppressing her. However, Clutch King was not within Misty Moon’s control.
He had already taken out his Lightning Spear and aimed it at the falling Misty Moon.
“Is this the weapon that can paralyze people?”
Misty World looked at the long spear that had left Clutch King’s hand and faced it directly, and calmly summoned a small tornado to block the long spear’s attack.
The long spear was knocked off and was stabbed into the ground not far away.
“A continuous instant cast. This might be his talent. He can instantly cast skills.”
Li Yi could not help but sigh as he walked to Dream Seeker’s side and helped him up from the ground.
“With such talent and his extremely clear estimation ability, I’m afraid it’ll be very difficult to get close to him.”
Dream Seeker analyzed the situation with Li Yi.
“What? The great Carefree Dream does not want to let me see his Heavy Armored Dragon Knight abilities?”
“As expected, you know everything about me.”
Li Yi put away his weapons and told his teammates to stop fighting.
Clutch King was very unhappy that the battle had stopped before it was even heated up, but he could only give up after Li Yi glared at him.
He picked up his long spear and silently walked back to Li Yi’s side.
It was the same for Misty Moon and Snow Chaser.
Li Yi folded his arms in front of his chest, and suddenly felt a little more appreciative as he looked at Misty World that stood in front of him.
Misty World seemed to have noticed Li Yi’s change, so he put away his magic staff and came in front of him. He stretched out his hands and smiled at Li Yi.
“Reconciliation?”
“Temporarily.”
Li Yi stretched out his hand and shook Misty World’s hand. He returned to his previous state with open ears.
“Tell me what the reward for this first war is. What’s the content of the first battle?”
“Won’t we know about these things tomorrow?”
“But I want to know now.”
“You don’t even know that I will but you’re asking?”
“You do. That’s why I came to you.”
“Then what do you mean by testing me?”
“I had to understand your depth of understanding before we could communicate effectively.”
“Doesn’t that mean you already know everything?”
“You can’t tell a person’s true intention from one glance.”
Li Yi smiled to himself. He did not directly answer Misty World’s question. Instead, he took out a token and handed it to Misty Rain.
“Each country has a total of ten tokens. The best player in this first battle will get one.”
Li Yi explained while Misty World observed the token in his hand for a long time.
“How much?”
“I’m not selling it now.”
“I know. I want to know how much you’ll sell it for after the first battle.”
“At least 10,000 gold coins.”
Misty Moon could not hold it in anymore.
“10,000 gold coins! Why not just go and rob a bank!”
“There’s no need to rob a bank. Your Guild Leader will give it to me.”
Misty World smiled faintly and glanced at Li Yi. The two of them, who originally probed each other harshly, seemed to have formed a tacit understanding as they laughed.
“When the time comes, give us a sign. Our Misty Rain Guild will also have to put on an act. Perhaps we can help you clear some of the obstructions alongs the way.”
“That’s good.”
Li Yi took back the token from Misty World’s hands and left with the four people beside him.
Misty World looked at Misty Moon who had some resentment and explained, “You underestimated the use of this token, haven’t you?”
