The Boss King actually disguised himself as a novice village chief?!

Chapter 397: Chapter 337: The Red-Name Monster Who Robs the Prison

Raven City, dungeon.

The air was stagnant, and the smell of excrement lingered at each turn, never dissipating.

It was far from quiet here.

"I forgot to turn off my sense of smell, it stinks!"

"Blegh!"

undead had been tormented here for a long time, completely deprived of their freedom since captured by the forces of Ailin Hawk.

Those NPCs had mastered how to deal with them.

The place was tightly guarded, leaving no possibility of escape.

They were deemed ineligible for ransom, and even their information was recorded, so paying someone in the real world to come and bail them out was futile.

Of course, they had never planned on paying a ransom.

The 12 were already on Lind’s faction blacklist; unless Lind decided to let them go, they would never be able to move freely within his ever-expanding territory.

They had tried posting online for help, but besides attracting onlookers, no one was willing to help, not even other undead with chaotic evil attributes.

Everyone was afraid of ending up on Lind’s blacklist.

Times had changed; originally, Lind was just a village chief in Newbie Village, and later becoming the lord of a main city didn’t matter much—they could just avoid the place. But now that he was a Kingdom General and the greatest lord of the Rand Kingdom, even controlling the Golden City, which connected the north and south, opposing Lind meant taking on great risks.

They had finally acquired equipment, military merits, and skills. If they ended up having to delete their accounts and restart for helping out, who could they blame?

"We have to join a rival faction, maybe they could help us."

Within the Rand Kingdom, Lind wasn’t the only power; the Black Catfish Prince from Black Island, the Fire Lizard Faction, the Blood Clan, and even the recently resurgent Green Skins did not get along with Lind.

The Fire Lizard Faction was purely after the Old Nobility, but they dared not enter the Central Region due to Lind’s presence, only lingering northeast of the Royal City.

The Green Skins were even more covert in their actions.

The Black Catfish Prince was a very good option, and some undead had already tried contacting them, but unfortunately, there had been no response so far.

"Join, how do we join?"

One question sparked a cacophony of discussion among the others.

"Didn’t Raven City capture a bunch of spies? It looks like they’re being held with us."

"They can’t escape themselves."

"But we can help them escape."

If they helped those spies escape, maybe they could qualify to join another faction.

The problem came full circle; they couldn’t escape themselves, so how could they help others?

Thankfully, the undead who first suggested it said, "I’ve already contacted a guy, who also got in trouble for killing NPCs. He dealt with a soldier, gave his entire hidden stash to that NPC Soldier. He said that NPC Soldier should be able to help us get free today."

He added, "Today’s that guy’s trial day, and with Raven City’s forces stretched thin, that bribe-taking NPC has a chance to make a move."

"Damn, where’s the money coming from? We’ve been stripped clean, not a penny to our name."

"No worries, the NPC doesn’t know. Let’s trick him into letting us out first."

Pay him? As soon as that NPC Soldier dared to release them, he would be met with an onslaught as fierce as a raging storm.

With their hands and feet bound, the 12 waited desperately, resolved that once they escaped, they would surely seize the opportunity to wreak havoc within the Rand Kingdom.

As a noble player, how dare you mere NPCs capture me? Once I’m out, I won’t do anything but go against you.

Not only that, I will definitely kill you, Lind Armand!

Dare to imprison us players? It’s time for you, a foolish NPC, to learn what can be provoked and what can’t.

For now, I’ll note down this grudge, level up, gear up, and when my strength has increased, I’ll come back for revenge. It’s kill, kill, kill.

Moral bottom line? Don’t get so high and mighty in a game, as long as it’s fun, that’s all that matters.

After a long time, they didn’t receive a message from "buddy," nor did they see any NPC soldiers coming to help.

"How’s your buddy doing? So much time has passed, he must’ve been executed twenty times by now, right? He couldn’t have not logged in, could he?"

Undead have their way of avoiding punishment, too; just by not logging in.

But not logging in to play the game is the biggest punishment for them.

Everyone can’t avoid their fate forever; for most Undead, punishment is just part of the game’s fun. Not everyone in the world has the chance to be executed or beheaded.

As long as they’re not like the 12 of us, miserably imprisoned in a gloomy underground jail, actually, no one minds experiencing what an execution feels like.

"Here they come!"

Noisy sounds came from outside, and the sound of steps was like a gust of wind.

After a few muffled thumps and the sound of burlap sacks hitting the ground, four people with red names above their heads burst in.

[Crimson Lady Tracy, 23]

[Crimson Lady, Chaika, lv22]

[Crimson Lady, Ailin, lv22]

[Crimson Noble, Xinta, lv31]

Crimson Ladies, aren’t those the vampires growing grapes in the Fox Hole? I didn’t expect to encounter them here.

However, this group clearly wasn’t here for us; they didn’t even glance at us as they quickly passed by toward a deeper part of the prison.

"Wait, hey, hey, wait! Lord of the Crimson Nobility, we want to join you, we are Undead!" the Undead immediately shouted at the top of their lungs.

The youth at the forefront, wrapped in a black cloak, appeared in front of the 12 like a cloud of mist manifesting out of thin air.

His silver-white hair framed his head like a thin cloud, his skin was pale, and his delicate and elegant features were startlingly handsome.

A noble and elegant vampire.

Xinta smiled: "Undead?"

There were many records of Undead when Blood Clan was sent out to investigate, yet there were no traces of Undead within the Bloodlust Castle. If he could bring Undead back, it would certainly be interesting.

Undead plus Undead, what would that become?

"Of course, you can!"

Finally, a new force was willing to help them escape and even willing to let them join. The 12 sighed in relief, although they didn’t understand why they were still marked with red names after joining the other side’s forces.

But that should be normal, right? Even Lind’s fiancée is still marked with a red name to this day.

The jail doors couldn’t stop a lv31 Heroic Level Crimson Noble. The pale, slender fingers easily pulled and opened the jail door. They wouldn’t have dared to enter Raven City if they hadn’t been sure that Lind, Wen, and the others were not there.

But now, with a substantial number of troops drawn away and the absence of high-end combat power, Raven City’s defenses were empty, like a place devoid of people.

"Lord, what are you looking for in the dungeon?"

"Noble," Xinta replied.
