YM778.TV Chapter 160
“The two of them went in different directions. Leeha, There they are.”
T1 and T2 were shown in the map at different places.
If it was impossible to follow two people at the same time, it was better to watch their movement.
And Leeha thought it would be even better if an expert figured out their movement.
“Hmm, definitely……. interesting. According to Leeha-ssi, they probably are…”
“Well, it’s still just a guess. Of course, Madam Ju will do the final confirmation.”
“Leeha, this is a win-win right?”
“It’s good for me to get the information I want, and for Madam to mobilize the capital’s Intelligence Guild, it’s good to be able to catch the tail of those unknown people. You scratch my back, I scratch yours. Killing two birds with one stone.”
When Leeha smiled, Madam Ju smiled as well.
Holy Grill capital branch in Aelstock. Leeha unfolded the map and saw Madam Ju’s office.
“Where did they go?”
“Well, you won’t be able to tell just by looking at the map.” Leeha continued to talk to Madam Ju.
Putting in every effort to catch something that only NPCs would know. However, it was tough.
At least Madam Ju looked at the map like Leeha, but she must have seen more than Leeha.
‘It would be natural because she’s an NPC. Okay, it’s okay even if I don’t know anything right now. In the end, I only need to figure out the identities of these guys.’
The target marked as T2 moved around going to different places such as forests, mountains, valleys, and so on.
In order to prevent even an accidentally discovered by users, he hid several times.
They didn’t even know they were marked.
‘I still haven’t heard from Kijeong. However, if he heard that someone other than Hwahong and Byeolcho intervened between the two guilds, he would definitely react.’
Looking at the map, Leeha thought about Kijeong.
Why did he have to appear at that point? No, how did he get to him and at that moment? And with Tale too.
The answer was simple.
‘Chain Teleport. Just like Ram Hwayeon and Ram Hwajeong, Kijeong used it too. To me.’
However, he did not know the reason. Why?
Why did Kijeong use it at that moment? Did he come to convince Leeha? Did he want me to join Byeolcho?
However, it didn’t seem to be the answer.
Did he come directly because he did not want to whisper? If that was the case, it would have been better to log out of Middle Earth and come to their house directly.
‘He even brought Tale. Besides, what he said back then was obviously……
[I didn’t see clearly, my eyes were blind.]
What did that mean? It was too hasty a conclusion to spit out as soon as he saw Leeha meet with Hwahong.
Was it possible for a martial artist to immediately come to the conclusion that he did something wrong?
In other words, at that moment, Kijeong and Tale went to Leeha with some ‘disturbing thoughts’.
‘They thought I might have been from Hwahong. Just a few days ago it was something that Kijeong would have never thought of. Tale must have told Kijeong
no, someone else might have put the idea into Kijeong.’
It should be someone who had huge enough influence on him, since as soon as Kijeong saw Leeha and Ram Hwayeon, the friendly and kind Kijeong immediately deleted him as a friend, and refused his whispers.
They planted the idea that Leeha was from Hwahong.
The series of actions and misunderstandings that took place seemed to be strangely connected, but they were not. Leeha was able to guess who it was to some extent.
“The two of them are now close to each other.”
“Oh, that’s true.”
At Madame Ju’s words, Leeha was brought back to reality. These guys. These guys might be the last puzzle to get the correct answer.
“Indeed……. There was a reason why we couldn’t find them even when we searched for them in the remote areas within the kingdom.”
“Leeha, really. It’s the darkest under the lamp. No, in that sense, they are great guys.”
Madam Ju nodded in admiration,
and Leeha had no choice but to laugh.
The letters on the map were Candle Mountain.
It was the place where the graduation quest happened in order to get out of the beginner village Candle Castle.
In the level 13 area, T1 and T2 were together and did not go anywhere.
“How long would it take?”
“Well. If it’s ‘Shinobi-gumi’ as Leeha-ssi had guessed…. It would take at least 10 days. Maybe more.”
“10 days? No, more than that? I think
10 days is long enough-”
NPCs would take 10 days? Now that they know that location, they should know right away!
“Ha Leeha-ssi knows it too, right? Unless we know their defensive capabilities of these guy’s hideout, it would be difficult to investigate from the outside.”
Madam Ju responded like a real human. Leeha listened to her words and nodded.
“Cough, well. It really is. They succeeded in ‘avoiding’ Madam Ju’s eyes. It should take longer even with the power of the Intelligence Guild’s capital branch.”
Madam Ju’s eyebrows twitched at Leeha’s words, “Phew…… Don’t worry, we won’t miss them this time. We will find out and contact you as soon as possible.”
“Huu, okay. Okay. Then I wish you luck, Madame Ju. I guess it’s true that you don’t like to lose.”
Seeing her reaction, Leeha smiled brightly In fact, it would take a longer time to really investigate.
They had to investigate to avoid traps or boundary magic.
‘It took nearly 20 days to investigate lousy monsters like Wild Angels, let alone this time, they were people who could even avoid the eyes of NPCs. Even if it took 10 days, it would still be fast.’
What would Leeha do in the meantime? He needed to use his time efficiently.
Leeha thought about improving his Snipe skill and the accuracy of Hummingbird.
“Also, please find out where that person is.”
“Who?”
“Agromni Igor.”
Leeha, who was about to leave, suddenly remembered and asked. He was a ranker that could not be missed, although the Intelligence Guild could not catch Shinobi-gumi, they should be able to track Agromni Igor.
“Ah, come to think of it…”
Madam Ju replied right away. It was pretty terrible news for Leeha.
—
“What about casualties?”
“I am ashamed, guild master-nim. We were attacked inside Myos City. Four people died.”
“The enemy?”
“There were 22. The guild members fought back, but only one person was caught.”
Jacheong wiped his forehead and shook his head. Ram Hwayeon wanted to scream but managed to hold back his frustration.
“Do you know how many days it has been already? How many people are there?”
“Of course. We did our best-”
“Doing your best doesn’t matter. Result
is what’s important. Go.”
“Yes, guild master-nim.”
After Jacheong left, Ram Hwayeon tied her hair.
After the battle on the Tygonas Plains, Byeolcho did not appear again.
‘However, we’re only at the bare-bones level now.’
At the same time as the war broke out, Hwahong was exposed through surprise attacks, and a trap was made to attract Ram Hwajeong.
After that? Although they waited for major battles, Byeolcho Alliance chose guerilla warfare.
‘Our movement, no matter how big or small, are caught and killed right after……’
“Even if they made formed a group of five or ten, they would still get beaten all the same. “
But what would happen if around 50 or 100 gathered? It was not an appropriate action because it would only be blatantly exposing Hwahong’s power and position, and it was not known what method Byeolcho Alliance would use.
The only way to avoid the sword of the Byeolcho Alliance was staying at the guild house, getting stuck in the capital, or logging out. As Hwahong, they were going through a humiliating situation.
‘What if the information itself was a trap……? No, we can’t counterattack. At least up to that point, all the information was correct.’
The information the traitor from the Byeolcho Alliance gave was accurate. The unfortunate thing was that it would have been different from the current situation, and after that, the traitor no longer made contact.
Ram Hwayeon felt that the odds are gradually going against her.
“Where did it go wrong? Huuuu-!!”
What made Ram Hwayeon really angry was herself.
She was disappointed and blamed herself for being in a position where she was unable to properly use the information she received.
“It was a war that had 100% chance of winning, 100%!! I even brought it, Hwangryong, Pei Wu, and an Outsider, using a lot of money but, the results are-”
“Sit down, unni.”
“Hwajeong, did you not hear anything? How is it going? What about Hwangryong? Did Pei Wu not say anything?”
Hwajeong shook her head after hearing Hwayeon.
There was no way Hwajeong knew information that Hwayeon, the guild master, did not know. It was unavoidable that she had a weak information network for this war.
Pei Wu and Hwangryong were allied with Hwahong and formed a large-scale alliance, but
Byeolcho was nowhere to be seen.
Crowley also had nowhere to go after Tygonas Plains. Because there were no battles.
When the guerilla warfare of Byeolcho Alliance continued to succeed, the public opinion in the community leaned towards Byeolcho.
Step, step, in a safe house with no people.
A man who sat while roughly holding a staff stood up and asked.
“What do you think? How is it?”
“All 3 groups succeeded.”
“Hahaha, really? That’s great! Hahahaha, that’s great!”
Hyein laughed. Sasuke, who came with good news, was calm.
“Doesn’t this mean we would win? Sasuke! I thought you were a shady guy! Where do you get such good information, huh?”
“Thank you, master.”
“Leeha, you ice god, it’s nice if you compliment me once.”
Hyein hit Sasuke in the head with a staff. Sasuke did not react to the blow.
“Good, good. As we saw earlier, the community had turned upside down. There’s an uproar about how we are really winning. The guerilla warfare costs us money, but Hwahong suffers a lot of personnel loss, right? There would be items dropping…….
Most importantly, it means that money goes to Hwangryong and the [Outsiders] everyday.”
“Yes. If Ram Hwayeon gets support from Ramlong group she would have a lot of money, but-”
“It can’t be… do you mean?”
“Yes. Because she boasted that she would pioneer a new business on her own. She will never get additional support from her parent company”
“Even if her parent group does, she would not take it. I don’t get that crazy bitch’s personality. Kuhahaha. Hihihi.”
Hyein laughed like a lunatic.
After laughing like that, he suddenly stopped and turned.
“No. It won’t be like that. Dragon Knights and Seomgwang whine every day that they could not take it anymore……. Right, Sasuke, when would be the final battle? What do you think? Can we win before we run out of money? It would be fun to see Hwahong’s money disappear, unfortunately, our money would run out first.”
