Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Threatening Macbeth, Gaia, the Lord of the City, the Commission

Johnnie sneered and sat down directly across from Macbeth.

He knew this guy was telling the truth — The Doe Family was definitely behind the game Horizon.

But this guy wasn’t exactly a good person either.

Johnnie casually played with a golden ornament on the table and said coldly."If you want to live, you need to prove your value."

Macbeth’s eyes flickered, and he secretly felt relieved. He quickly said."I can switch sides and secretly help you take down The Doe Family."

Johnnie shook his head. "Not enough."

He could take down The Doe Family on his own.

Macbeth continued."I can give you information — like what The Doe Family is planning behind the scenes."

"Oh?" Johnnie showed interest and said."Tell me."

Macbeth didn’t speak right away. He was cautious and said."You have to promise not to attack me first."

Johnnie’s expression turned cold. "Macbeth, you don’t have the right to bargain with me."

Macbeth swallowed hard. He knew that if Johnnie wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as snapping his fingers.

He hesitated for a moment, but finally gave in and said."Dorian is planning to Build a country."

"Build a country?" Johnnie was surprised. He hadn’t heard anything about it, and Dylan didn’t have any information either.

This news was very important to him. Establishing a nation would bring great benefits, especially for the first one.

He couldn’t let The Doe Family succeed.

Johnnie looked at Macbeth and asked."Time, location."

"I don’t know that." Macbeth shook his head helplessly. "The Doe Family is always very cautious, but I heard they’ve been active in Windy City recently. They should be setting up a city near there."

"Windy City?" Johnnie frowned. He knew that city — it was a level 5 city. The Lord of the City, Clout, was said to be at stage 8, an epic peak strength.

The most special thing about Windy City was its location — it was located in the Death Desert, surrounded entirely by monsters at stage 6 and above.

Johnnie didn’t think The Doe Family would Build a country there. They wouldn’t be able to survive the Beast Wave from the Death Desert.

Seeing that Johnnie remained silent, Macbeth was uneasy and said."Johnnie, do you think this information is worth anything?"

"Not enough." Johnnie said coldly. "If you want to live, help me get the specific information about The Doe Family’s nation. And bring me thirty thousand Half-Life Lotuses."

That was his main goal — the Half-Life Lotus.

Johnnie had already calculated that The Doe Family had almost robbed the major Ancient Martial Arts Families of their Half-Life Lotus, and the number was about thirty thousand each.

"Thirty thousand?" Macbeth quickly shook his head. "Johnnie, you’re overestimating me. The Half-Life Lotus is under The Doe Family’s control. I only have a little over ten thousand left."

Ten thousand?

Johnnie frowned. That number was way too low.

He had already calculated that helping the Yett Family’s descendants to transform into innate physique would take at least three thousand Half-Life Lotus.

"You should know what happens if you lie to me." Johnnie stared at Macbeth and said coldly.

Macbeth quickly said."I swear, I really only have this much. I had more before, but Dorian moved it all away. This is what I managed to hide."

"Give them all to me." Johnnie sighed. He could feel that the guy wasn’t lying. If he wanted Half-Life Lotus, he’d have to go after The Doe Family.

"Yes, I’ll get them right away. Come here." Macbeth didn’t hesitate at all, immediately ordering his subordinate to bring the Half-Life Lotus.

There were about thirteen thousand of them.

Johnnie took them all and stood up, saying."Macbeth, you have three days to get me detailed information on where The Doe Family is building their nation. Otherwise, you still die."

"Yes, yes." Macbeth said nervously, quickly responding.

Johnnie said nothing more. He went to the broken window, leapt out, and behind him, a pair of huge wings appeared. He quickly disappeared into the night.

Macbeth sighed in relief. The look of submission on his face disappeared, and his expression turned cold.

"This is getting complicated now. I have to speed things up." he muttered to himself and ordered someone to fix the broken window and log back into the game.

Macbeth’s figure appeared in Astral City. After confirming there were no suspicious people around, he covered his face and headed straight for the city governor’s residence.

...

Johnnie flew at high speed and didn’t return to Dark Moon Mountain until the evening of the next day.

Everything at Yett Family remained the same. Except for daily life, most people stayed in the game, working on improving their strength.

Johnnie found Lina. The Yett Family had set up a special lab just for him.

"Johnnie, why did you leave for so long? Did you bring everything?" Lina came up to him, full of expectation.

Johnnie nodded and took out the Canvas of Illusions. He took out all the lab equipment inside, including over ten thousand Half-Life Lotus.

Lina’s eyes lit up. She was eager to start the experiment.

Cecilia and Holly hurried over when they heard the noise.

But Crysic wasn’t there. She had been staying in The Secret Realm of the Sword Tomb for the past few days, training with Bellina, going through her trial.

She wanted to increase her strength in The Way of the Sword as much as possible.

Johnnie didn’t care about that. He greeted the girls, said hi, then went back to his room and logged back into the game.

He had been away for over four days, and there was still a lot to do.

Taking down The Doe Family, finding the fragments of The Map of Heaven and Earth, completing The White Spirit Tiger’s quest, and Building a country.

Ding!

As soon as Johnnie logged in, a private message popped up. It was Dylan.

Dylan: "Johnnie, we found a hidden realm in the ruins of Novice Village No. 433. It’s full of Wraith Soldiers at stage 6 and above."

Stage 6, Wraith Soldiers?

Johnnie was surprised. How could a novice village ruins have such powerful undead monsters?

Before he could ask, another message came in.

Dylan: "Not only that, I sent some new players into the village. They also found similar hidden realms in other novice villages. All of them have powerful Wraith Soldiers inside."

Johnnie: "I’m going back to The Chinese City right away."

He felt this situation was too strange. He sent a quick reply to Dylan and then went to Astral City, preparing to take the teleportation point to Sky Blue City.

The teleportation point to The Chinese City was not open. To enter The Chinese City, he had to go to the nearest Sky Blue City and walk from there.

"Johnnie!" As soon as he entered the city, a soldier spotted him and immediately approached.

"What is it?" Johnnie asked, confused.

The soldier bowed and then said."Our Lord of the City wants to see you."

"See me?" Johnnie frowned. He thought about Gaia’s last mission. He wanted to exchange the information about the fragments of The Map of Heaven and Earth for Johnnie’s help in establishing a nation.

Evidently, he hadn’t given up yet.

Johnnie didn’t want to deal with him, but the fragments of The Map of Heaven and Earth were too important to him.

He hesitated for a moment, then said."Lead the way."

"Yes." The soldier immediately led him toward the Lord of the City.

"Johnnie, I finally found you!" In the grand hall of the city governor’s residence, Gaia warmly greeted him.

Johnnie nodded coldly and said."I have other things to do. Just get to the point."

Gaia didn’t waste time. He invited him into the grand hall and got straight to the point: "It’s still about helping me Build a country."

"Impossible. This mission is too hard." Johnnie refused immediately. It wasn’t worth it to help him Build a country just for a piece of information about The Map of Heaven and Earth.

Gaia didn’t care. He continued."You know that, of course. If you help me find two City Establishment Orders and kill the Lord of the Stellar City, I’ll tell you about the fragments of The Map of Heaven and Earth."

"Kill the Lord of the Stellar City?" Johnnie frowned and thought.

Stellar City was a level 4 city, and Astral City was under its jurisdiction. If Astral City tried to Build a country, Stellar City would definitely send troops to stop them.

Not to mention setting up a city — the Lord of the Stellar City wouldn’t agree.

Gaia asking for two City Establishment Orders clearly meant he wanted to have three cities and Build a country himself.

But what did he have to protect himself from the Beast Wave caused by Building a country?

Seeing Johnnie remain silent, Gaia continued."Johnnie, if you kill the Lord of the Stellar City, I’ll tell you about the fragments of The Map of Heaven and Earth. Also, the Lord of the Stellar City, Grayden, has two Fossils of Creation in his possession."

Johnnie was tempted. He really needed a lot of Fossils of Creation right now.

And this mission wasn’t that hard. He had already killed a bunch of Demon General-level strong guys in The Shadow Abyss, and he had more than ten City Establishment Orders in his possession.

The Lord of the Stellar City was at most stage 6, epic strength. Killing him would be a piece of cake.

Johnnie said."Issue the mission."

"Good." Gaia was delighted and immediately issued the mission.

[Ding. You have triggered a special hidden mission: Gaia, the Lord of the City’s commission; Kill the Lord of the Stellar City, submit two City Establishment Orders, and receive information about the fragments of The Map of Heaven and Earth. Accept?]

"Accept."

[Ding. Accepted Gaia, the Lord of the City’s commission; Mission duration: half a month. If the mission fails, your level will drop to stage 1, level 1.]

The prompt came again.

This mission even had a time limit, and the penalty for failure was serious.

Johnnie gave Gaia a cold look. This guy definitely had bad intentions.

Gaia smiled awkwardly and said."Johnnie, don’t misunderstand. I’m just worried that you’ll take the mission and then drag it out."

"Hmph. I’ll let you know when I’m done." Johnnie sneered and turned around to leave.

Killing the Lord of the Stellar City was a breeze for him. He wasn’t in a hurry.

Right now, the most important thing was to finish the White Spirit Tiger mission. He couldn’t let Gaia Build a country first.

Johnnie didn’t believe Gaia had the power to resist the Beast Wave, but he couldn’t ignore the risk either.

Half a month should be enough.

He took the Teleportation Array to Sky Blue City, then used the Controlled Sword to fly toward The Chinese City.

Demon Wing flew faster, but it was his secret weapon. He wasn’t ready to reveal it yet.

"Johnnie guru!"

As soon as Johnnie entered The Chinese City, a player ran up to him and said."Dylan sir told me to wait here and guide you to the entrance of the hidden realm."
