The Fourth Calamity: People in High Martial Arts, Gods in Games

Chapter 101 The War Begins

"The Big Ape Gang?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qi frowned slightly.

The Great Ape Gang is one of the ape clan's wild gangs, and the ape clan is one of the ten strongest clans in the City of Light. The Great Ape Gang, which is very famous in the suburbs, is an ape clan.

Because the apes were a powerful race in the City of Light, the gorilla gang never worried about not getting their money back. And as soon as he had the money, he returned the 60,000 bits to the gorilla gang, settling the score.

As for the Great Ape Gang, it is a very old and established gang in the wild, with a history of over fifty years. At its peak, it could rank in the top ten, and at its lowest, it was still in the top twenty. According to the information provided by Qin Mu, this ranking was largely related to the Great Ape Gang.

Or, to put it another way, the Great Ape Gang is a gang supported by the higher-ups of the Great Gorilla Gang in the wild. It provides a lifeline to the higher-ups of the Great Gorilla Gang and can be considered a way for the Great Ape Gang's experts to advance. That's why the Great Ape Gang's ranking fluctuates from time to time. Otherwise, as one of the ten strongest races in the City of Light, the Ape Clan would never be ranked only in the twentieth place among the wild gangs.

The fact that the Great Ape Gang is going to attack Red Moon Mountain is undoubtedly very bad news.

Currently, Obsidian Martial Arts Academy only has 110 players. Although they have mined a lot of energy ore from Crimson Moon Mountain in the past few days, they can only build a dozen or so rest areas at most, and the renovation will take time.

According to the renovation time given by the system, the first five rest areas to be renovated will take three days, and his side will need more than a day to complete the renovation.

However, according to Jacques, the Great Ape Gang would have at most one day to attack Red Moon Mountain, which was simply not enough time. Moreover, even if they could make it, they would only be able to recruit fifty new members, which would be far from sufficient.

The Great Ape Gang has over two thousand members, and even if the Obsidian Martial Arts School adds these new recruits, it will only have 160 people, which is not even a fraction of the Great Ape Gang's numbers.

Just as Lin Qi was deep in thought, Jacques suddenly spoke up: "If Master Lin finds the information important, I have some detailed information about the Great Ape Gang that I can share with you."

"I didn't expect you to have so much information." Lin Qi looked at Jacques with surprise. As a wanderer, Jacques should not know much about a city, since wanderers are always hit-and-run and never stay in one place for long.

"It's just a personal habit of mine," Jacques explained. "Before taking on any commission, I thoroughly investigate the relevant employer and target information, just to avoid getting involved with the wrong people."

"Now that you're here, it seems your investigation into your information isn't very reliable," Lin Qi said with a smile.

"There are indeed errors in the information about the Obsidian Martial Arts School, but my investigation into the Great Ape Gang comes from intelligence dealers in the black market, so it shouldn't be wrong." Jacques smiled wryly.

Jacques really wanted to kill the informant who provided the information about the Obsidian Martial Arts School, and he also regretted underestimating the school.

The information provided by the intelligence provider was indeed very complete. On the surface, the Obsidian Martial Arts School had at most a dozen or so advanced apprentices, with most of them being intermediate apprentices.

But who would have thought that the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy should have only had two geniuses back then? The truth is that the worst of the advanced apprentices were comparable to quasi-martial artists, and the intermediate apprentices were no less powerful than the advanced apprentices. They were simply a bunch of monsters.

"Speak, what information do you have about the Great Ape Gang?" Lin Qi stopped teasing Jacques and asked directly.

"Yes." Jacques nodded, a weight lifted from his heart, and slowly said, "The Great Ape Gang has about 2600 members, with about 700 apprentice-level experts. However, the Great Ape Gang's operation this time was urgent, and they can only mobilize less than 400 apprentices in a day. The other apprentice-level experts are being transported, so the total number that can be mobilized should be over 1,000. In addition to the gang leader, Watu, the Great Ape Gang also has fourteen hidden quasi-martial artists. These quasi-martial artists are the private armed forces of a high-ranking member of the Great Ape Gang."

"Besides these quasi-martial artists, the Great Ape Gang's most powerful asset is its five sets of A6-level battle armor. Those five sets of A6-level battle armor have always been the Great Ape Gang's greatest source of confidence, and have always been managed by the gang leader and four deputy gang leaders who are also limit apprentices."

"However, for this attack on Red Moon Mountain, three vice leaders are in charge of transportation, so it is estimated that only the leader Watu and one vice leader can actually fight."

"Two sets of A6-level battle armor, more than ten quasi-martial artists and over a thousand people?" Lin Qi couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement upon hearing this.

With thousands of people attacking Red Moon Mountain, this scale was no longer a gang fight; it was a full-blown war.

"Master Lin, I suggest we abandon Crimson Moon Mountain as soon as possible. If we withdraw from Crimson Moon Mountain now, the Great Ape Gang will no longer attack Obsidian Martial Arts School, nor will they care about the feud between Obsidian Martial Arts School and White Feather Gang." Jacques looked at the silent Lin Qi and felt that an opportunity had come. "Obsidian Martial Arts School may lose Crimson Moon Mountain, but it will also become very difficult for White Feather Gang to attack Obsidian Martial Arts School again, especially since Obsidian Martial Arts School has many high-end combatants. Afterwards, we can completely block White Feather Gang members in the wilderness, which will not only increase our wealth and strength, but also weaken White Feather Gang."

Jacques still feels lingering fear about the high-level combat power of the Obsidian Martial Arts School. Who would have thought that four advanced apprentices could take down four of their prospective martial artists?

Such a dozen or so high-end combatants might be helpless against the Great Ape Gang, but if they were to deal with the White Feather Gang, which lacks sufficient foundation, they could definitely slowly wear down the White Feather Gang.

After that, unless Bai Yu Gang leads a group to attack the Black Obsidian Martial Arts School's headquarters and faces the vagrants of the entire human settlement area, there is no solution.

"Alright, I understand." After a moment of silence, Lin Qi nodded and instructed, "Your information is indeed very important to me. As agreed, I will spare your life, but you can only stay in the martial arts school, on the first and second floors. You cannot leave the school even for a moment. I will have someone arrange a room for you and send you some medicine. If you dare to leave the martial arts school without my orders, you should know the consequences."

"I'm a cripple now, how dare I run around?" Jacques glanced at his arms, smiled bitterly, but still assured him, "Master Lin, rest assured, I will not leave the martial arts school without orders."

Jacques Rothschild has now resigned himself to his fate.

Both arms were comminuted fractures. Although they were not incurable, the treatment cost would probably be over a million. For a crippled near-martial arts master to earn over a million bits was simply a pipe dream.

As a crippled near-martial artist, she would be a walking treasure in the wild. If captured and sold to a pharmaceutical company, she could fetch a huge price, and what awaited her would be a life worse than death.

On the contrary, it's safer for her to stay in the Obsidian Martial Arts School now. At least judging from Lin Qi's appearance, he doesn't intend to do anything to her; he's just keeping her as a prisoner.

The latest novel is first published here!

On the other side, after Lin Qi finished giving his instructions, he had a new player take Jacques to the lounge on the second floor. Lin Qi himself went to the training ground, called Fang Zhen and the others, and gathered everyone together. This surprised Fang Zhen and the others, who knew that this must have triggered a hidden plot.

In just a few minutes, all the players gathered together, looking at Lin Qi with curiosity.

"I have some bad news to announce," Lin Qi said loudly, glancing at the players. "The White Feather Gang, who have always been our enemy, have now joined forces with the Wild Ape Gang and are preparing to attack Crimson Moon Mountain in the next day or two. Their numbers are roughly estimated to be over a thousand. Can you tolerate this?"

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned, especially Fang Zhen and the others, whose mouths were agape, unable to believe it was true.

The players present all knew that the new expansion was about defending Crimson Moon Mountain. They all thought it would be just a small-scale skirmish like in the wild, but they didn't expect it to be this big.

Thousands of people attacked!

This is no longer a gang fight, it's a war!

"My answer is no!" Lin Qi said very seriously. "Since they dare to extend their claws towards us, our Obsidian Martial Arts School will not be polite. What we need to do is very simple: break their claws so that no one else will dare to do it again!"

"From now on, any disciple who reaches the apprentice level can accept the mission to guard Crimson Moon Mountain! Follow me to Crimson Moon Mountain!"

As Lin Qi finished speaking, the players present, after a brief silence, suddenly became incredibly excited, as if it were Chinese New Year.

"They've gone mad! They're killing like mad!"

"Quick! Quickly inform Sister Wu and the others! War! War is about to begin!"

"Damn it! I was so close to becoming an apprentice! Master, could you give me some time?"
