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

Chapter 115 War! War! War! (Long Chapter)

"Your friend's Obsidian Martial Arts School?"

Watu was stunned for a moment when he saw Xia Ling, who didn't care about the Great Ape Gang at all.

Not only was Vatu, the leader of the Great Ape Gang, stunned, but even Flo and the others on Red Moon Mountain were momentarily wondering if there was something wrong with their ears and if they had misheard.

"Master Lin, are you friends with Miss Xia Ling?" Flo couldn't help but ask Lin Qi in a low voice, his voice even trembling slightly.

Although Xia Ling's voice wasn't loud, the entire place was already eerily silent because of the Phosphorus Fire Gang's presence, and no one dared to utter a sound. This made Xia Ling's words exceptionally clear throughout the room.

For people involved in gangs, the word "friend" is just an everyday term.

It's exactly the same as asking, "Have you eaten?" or "Do you want to eat?"

But when Xia Ling arrived with twenty personal guards from the Phosphorus Fire Gang and uttered the word "friend" in front of the Great Ape Gang, the meaning was completely different.

This not only shows how much Xia Ling values ​​the person from the Obsidian Martial Arts School, but also indicates that she regards that person as someone of equal status and position.

Currently, the only leader of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy is Lin Qi. There are no other known leaders of the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy. If there is no mistake, then the only friend Xia Ling mentioned is Lin Qi.

If things are as he thinks, then the value of the Obsidian Martial Arts School is far greater than he previously imagined. After all, in a dog-eat-dog world like the City of Light, no child from a powerful family would casually befriend someone who is inferior to them in every way, especially someone whose status and position are clearly inferior.

Lin Qi scratched his head, not entirely sure, and said, "I guess so."

He and Xia Ling were definitely not friends, and he didn't even know Xia Ling's specific identity. He only knew that Xia Ling had a high status in the Phosphorus Fire Gang.

However, he and Xia Ling had done a lot of business dealings, so it wouldn't be wrong to call them business friends.

"Understood, understood!" Flo nodded, his face beaming with joy.

Although Xia Ling acknowledges Lin Qi as a friend, Lin Qi doesn't really acknowledge him, which is enough to show that there is a significant difference in their status. The Obsidian Martial Arts School must have a very impressive background.

Lin Qi looked at Flo, who seemed to understand everything, and was speechless for a moment.

He didn't understand what was going on, nor did he know what Flo had figured out.

As for Mans, the captain of the White Feather Gang, who had been observing from a distance on the bridge with binoculars, he also gasped in shock at what he saw.

"How could this be?" Mans stared blankly at Xia Ling, who had stepped forward, completely bewildered. "What exactly is her relationship with Obsidian Martial Arts School?"

As the granddaughter of the leader of the Phosphorus Fire Gang, Xia Ling holds an extremely high position within the gang. Now, having achieved the status of a quasi-martial artist before the age of 20, her position is even higher than that of the gang's vice leader.

It's completely baffling that such a big shot from the outskirts of the city would come to the rescue of the small Obsidian Martial Arts School.

If Xia Ling intervenes in the Great Ape Gang's attack, the Great Ape Gang will have no choice but to give up on dealing with the Obsidian Martial Arts School, thus completely ruining the White Feather Gang's plans.

"Captain Mans, should we wait until they've all left before we take action?" a White Feather Gang guard captain asked in a low voice.

"Even if you forcefully attack Crimson Moon Mountain later, it won't make a difference." Mans shook his head, looking at the dozens of players on Crimson Moon Mountain, and sighed, "The Obsidian Martial Arts School has considerable strength. Nineteen people were able to wreak havoc in the Great Ape Gang's headquarters, killing more than six hundred people. Do you think you can do even better?"

For a moment, the guards present fell silent. Although they didn't want to admit it, they knew it would be difficult to do better. After all, the Great Ape Gang's headquarters had thousands of members and hundreds of apprentice-level experts. Even real martial artists couldn't defeat them head-on, let alone those of them who weren't martial artists.

"The guild leader called you here so you could finish off the enemy, not to be the vanguard." Mans looked at the silent guards, a slight smile playing on his lips. "But this time, you're not without a chance."

"Captain Mans, what do you mean?" The two captains of the secret guards couldn't help but look at Mans, the gang leader's newest confidant, with curiosity.

"That old gorilla, Vatu, is extremely ambitious, according to the gang leader," Mans said with a smile, looking at Vatu across the bridge. "While Xia Ling's identity is certainly terrifying, Vatu is no ordinary person either. He won't let go of a small energy mine so easily. You can just fish in troubled waters when the time comes."

It would be one thing if we didn't know some information about Vatu, but knowing that Vatu is likely a martial artist, and one who has been running a wild gang for many years, is quite another.

Let alone Xia Ling, Vatu probably wouldn't give in to the entire Phosphorus Fire Gang.

After all, the great opportunity to carve out a territory and become a king is right in front of them. Few martial artists can resist the temptation. It's just a matter of whether Watu is willing to reveal his hidden trump card.

Just as Mans was speaking, a low laugh suddenly came from the crowd of the Great Ape Gang, instantly turning the previously silent scene into an extremely dead silence.

"I haven't seen Xia Ling for a while, and I didn't expect her to be involved in the fighting between gangs in the wild."

"However, it's unfortunate that Vatu is also an old friend of mine. I wonder if you could do them a favor and let them settle their own affairs?"

As the words fell, a woman from the Three-Eyed Clan stepped out from the Great Ape Gang. This woman had silver hair, and although she wore a metal mask that obscured her true appearance, she gave off the feeling of a fairy from the forest, making everyone feel an indescribable sense of intimacy.

Behind the woman followed twenty men and women of the Three-Eyed Clan. These men and women were all dressed in black robes, but beneath the robes, one could vaguely see A6-level armor. The aura they deliberately exuded was much stronger than that of many quasi-martial artists, clearly indicating that they had reached the level of the ultimate quasi-martial artist.

The combined presence of these twenty three-eyed men and women was no less imposing than the two hundred Phosphorous Fire Gang guards behind Xia Ling.

"Estina! What are you doing here?" Xia Ling's golden eyes flashed with surprise when she saw the three-eyed woman walk out.

Estina!

This three-eyed woman is known to everyone in the suburbs of the City of Light.

The second daughter of the Blanc family, a powerful martial arts family living in the suburbs. They own more than ten businesses in the suburbs and have cooperative relationships with many powerful clans and gangs in the suburbs.

Estina's status in the Brun family is no less than that in the Phosphorus Gang. Even her grandfather, the leader of the Phosphorus Gang, usually gives her some face.

"I've been working with Chief Vatu for many years. Chief Vatu said he would show me something good today, so I came over to take a look." Estina's voice was soft, like moonlight flowing through the folds of silk. She smiled gently, "Now it seems that I have indeed seen something I don't usually see."

"You're going to help that gorilla?" Xia Ling glanced at Vatu, then looked at Estina with a hint of anger in her eyes.

"It's not about helping. I told you, Vatu is my friend and a partner I've worked with for many years." Estina shook her head slightly and said softly, "Your friend previously attacked the Great Ape Gang's camp in a very impolite manner. The Great Ape Gang's visit today is just to let your friend know what reciprocity is."

"However, considering that you have friends at the Obsidian Martial Arts Academy, Vato certainly won't go too far. We can let him go today, but the others must be killed!"

As Estina uttered her last word, a chilling aura instantly enveloped the entire room, causing many who initially thought Estina was an easy-going beauty to change their minds.

One word: kill!

Even a quasi-martial arts level nomad who had been fighting in the wild for many years felt a sense of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, as if an emperor's wrath would cause blood to flow for thousands of miles.

Estina's words left Xia Ling speechless and hesitant for a moment.

She knew all too well what kind of woman Estina was. Within the Phosphorus Gang, many considered her a little devil, but within the Blanc family, Estina was described as a madwoman.

The latest novel is first published here!

They can be ruthless to the point of being reckless!

"Miss." Just as Xia Ling hesitated, the old man who looked like a butler behind her said in a low voice, "Estina's family power and influence are much stronger than the Phosphorus Fire Gang in the suburbs. If we really fight head-on, we will suffer a great loss. Let's take Master Lin with us today. It's not too late for us to regain our face after you advance to the level of a martial artist."

Xia Ling took a deep breath, smiled at Vato, and said in a neutral tone, "Fine, I'll give Estina face today and I won't interfere in your fight. I hope Chief Vato won't regret his decision today."

To put it simply, I've got my eye on you!

"Miss Xia Ling, you may take your friend away; we won't stop you," Vatu said with a simple, honest smile, completely unconcerned.

Xia Ling then stopped looking at Vatu and Estina and directly used her smartwatch to contact Lin Qi using the contact information he had left behind. Lin Qi, on Red Moon Mountain, immediately connected to the communication.

"Master Lin, my abilities are limited. All I can do is get you away," Xia Ling said apologetically. "As for the others, I can't do anything about them. Once I make a move, that woman Estina will definitely make a move as well. In that case, it will probably be a battle between you and the Great Ape Gang."

"I understand, thank you for your help today, Miss Xia." Lin Qi heard everything clearly at the village gate and knew that Xia Ling had done her best. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "If those people from the Three-Eyed Clan were to make a move, Miss Xia, could you stop them?"

"Will Estina and the others make a move?" Xia Ling was quite surprised, not understanding why Lin Qi asked this, but she still said seriously, "If they dare to make a move, I definitely won't let them succeed."

"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Xia then." Lin Qi nodded and thanked her.

"Master Lin, are you really going to fight?" Xia Ling was taken aback by Lin Qi's tone. "The Great Ape Gang has more than 1,500 people, of whom more than 700 are experts at the apprentice level or above. Moreover, they are well prepared this time, and their teamwork is far superior to what you did during your night raid."

"Our Obsidian Martial Arts Academy has always believed that we would rather die speaking out than live in silence!" Lin Qi thought for a moment and felt it was necessary to give a player a reason for not being afraid of death, so that it would be easier to explain later.

"Is it better to die speaking out than to live in silence?!" Xia Ling looked at Lin Qi, who had hung up the call, and suddenly felt that Lin Qi and the Obsidian Martial Arts School were really extraordinary. It was probably because of this kind of thinking that he was progressing so quickly, while she lacked this kind of training.

Thinking back to how she had to escape with Lin Qi, this was simply a desecration of Lin Qi's beliefs.

"Miss, how is it? Should we go pick her up?" the butler asked.

"No need." Xia Ling waved her hand, her gaze immediately sweeping over Estina, a desire to settle things arose in her heart. "Get ready, have everyone keep an eye on that side, and stop them the moment they dare to make a move!"

"Will they make a move?" The butler was taken aback, not understanding what Miss Xia Ling was thinking. No matter how you looked at it, Obsidian Martial Arts School had no chance of winning this war, so why should Estina go through all this trouble?

After Lin Qi hung up the call, he turned to look at the players gathered behind him, paused, and said loudly, "The result is already very clear. The Great Ape Gang wants us dead and wants to take our Crimson Moon Mountain. There's only one thing we can do left."

"Let's all draw our swords!"

"From now on, all spoils of war belong to you. Whoever kills the Vice Leader of the Great Ape Gang will be rewarded with 100,000 points and 1,000 contribution points; whoever kills the Gang Leader, Vatu, will be rewarded with 300,000 points and 3,000 contribution points!"

As soon as Lin Qi finished speaking, all the players in the audience cheered.

"The Master is mighty!"

"All the spoils are ours? Master, you're amazing!"

"Looks like the Master is going to bleed a lot today! Brothers, it's time for some perks!"

Flo, who was stationed on the mountainside, looked at the players below who had suddenly become more imposing, and his mind was full of questions.

Shouldn't the loot belong to the killer?

However, before Flo could even react, he soon witnessed a scene that made his jaw drop.

The ninety players who were supposed to be stationed at the foot of the mountain rushed out of the village gate without saying a word, as if they had gone mad, and charged towards the location of the Great Ape Gang, completely unaware of what a defensive battle was.
