Chapter 83: I'll reward you with ten thousand!
"As the saying goes, winning hearts and minds is the best strategy, while conquering cities is the worst. We need to win one faction over another, and we can't let them unite as one."
[Calling a mouse a duck] He instructed:
"You personally explain to the brothers that they absolutely cannot bomb civilian houses, merchants, nobles, or banks. They should target military facilities. If they can find side roads or secret passages, that would be best."
"I'll treat the brothers who have contributed well, both online and offline. If we secure this win, I'll personally reward them."
In the end, [Pointing at a mouse as a duck] stared meaningfully at his right-hand man, [Flying Bat], for a moment.
Online, he was the head of the secret police's operations department; offline, he handled the distribution of red envelopes. These past few days, he had gotten whatever he wanted, but now, sweat was starting to seep from his forehead.
"The brothers have been complaining about you a lot lately. You'd better watch yourself," [Pointing at a Mouse] muttered, squinting his eyes.
"Yes...Director..." [Flying Bat] swallowed hard and stammered in response.
He knew he had lost face in front of this wealthy patron.
He realized that his current wealth and status, both online and offline, were all earned by the other party. If the other party wanted to kick him out, he would be left with nothing but tears.
Damn it, it's all my fault for being greedy. I gave them only 80 out of 800 in membership fees. [Flying Bat] felt like slapping himself right now.
It's like throwing away the watermelon to pick up a sesame seed!
[Flying Bat] cursed himself for his shortsightedness and slowly retreated. Now that things had come to this, he could only pray that the sugar daddy inside would let him off the hook because of his hard work.
Meanwhile, in Braavos.
Inside a residential house, thirty players from the newly logged-in Secret Police Station gathered together.
"Gentlemen, the Director's meaning is simple and clear: let's do it!"
Player [King of the Wheel] has been nominated as the commander of tonight's temporary operation due to his previous merits.
A map of Braavos was laid out on the table.
The players inside the room gathered around.
"We have limited equipment. Although we received some funding for the operation, it was only enough for us to prepare twenty-five canisters of wildfire."
Fortunately, the pyromancer guild guys developed a batch of high explosives, similar to dynamite packs. Just light the fuse and throw it like a bomb.
"As for the rest, there are thirty crossbows and short crossbows in total. One for each of us brothers should be enough." After saying this, [King Wheel] looked at the deputy commander of this operation.
"The brothers' arrows and swords are all poisoned," the deputy commander replied.
"Alright, let's start assigning tasks," [King Wheel] nodded, turned back, and looked at everyone:
"I will lead a team of fourteen men, our target is the Sea King's Palace. We will have our informants to provide support during the operation. Listen up, brothers of the team."
Aside from the target "Poseidon", anyone else who comes into your sight should be eliminated cleanly and decisively!
If we successfully intercept the target, after the two teams rendezvous, the second team will focus all their efforts on protecting the first team, while the brothers from the first team will follow me back to the base with the target. Understand?
"Understood!" the players in the team responded in unison.
"The remaining brothers, led by the deputy commander, will form two teams. Your mission is to create chaos in the city, but remember, your targets are only military facilities and all armed personnel."
Furthermore, the commander said that if we can find a small path or secret passage connecting to the outside, that would be best. If not, after we give the signal, all of you must come here and meet us!
[King of Reincarnation] pointed to the map, and all the players looked at it:
"The Long Canal!"
The deputy commander blurted out instinctively.
"That's right, this waterway runs through Braavos and leads directly to the fish market in the south. Our team will leave Braavos with our objective at the fish market!"
"At that time, your second team must do everything in its power to hold off the pursuers and buy time for our first team to leave," said [King Wheel].
"Do you all understand your tasks?" After assigning the tasks, [King Wheel] asked the crowd.
"Understood!" the players inside the room responded in unison.
"Alright, the commander has ordered that regardless of the success of the operation, all brothers who participated tonight can choose one piece of equipment from the logistics department online afterwards. In addition, each of them will receive a 5,000 yuan bonus offline, and the second team covering the rear will receive 6,000 yuan!"
"The Wheel King" said, word by word.
The faces of everyone inside the room immediately lit up with fighting spirit.
"Is it still that guy Liu Guizi who's sending it?" a player said.
The situation suddenly became quite awkward.
These six traitors are none other than "Flying Bats." This guy has been getting incredibly arrogant lately, not only taking bribes and kickbacks, but also blatantly embezzling the membership fees and operational funds that the guild leader distributes to the brothers.
This made the players in the Secret Police Station deeply resent this guy, because he always put on a serious face and thought he was the Sixth Brother in the movies and TV series. The brothers in the guild secretly cursed him as "Sixth Devils".
"Ahem, after the operation is completed, the Director will personally distribute the rewards to everyone." [King of Wheels] coughed lightly, personally resolving the concerns of everyone in the room.
"Damn, that's good. That damn Sixth Devils, just because he's been with the Director for a long time, he thinks he's some kind of meritorious hero. He's always putting on a long face, demanding bribes and kickbacks. What a piece of trash!"
"Exactly! Damn it, if we met in real life, I'd beat him until his face was covered in bruises!"
The players inside began to whisper among themselves.
"Alright, we're all paid by the bureau chief. If it's not related to the operation, let's put that aside for now. We can talk about some things after the brothers have their money in their pockets!"
[King of the Wheel] clapped his hands, stopping the conversation inside. As one player turned off the light, the room, which was already cramped due to the number of people, was plunged into darkness.
"Damn it! Charge again! I refuse to believe we can't take this tiny island! Tell the brothers, whoever's the first to charge in, I'll give him a 100,000 dollar reward!"
[Storm Nebula Rift] broke free from his second-in-command [Mantou Immortal] and gave orders to his players.
The players, who had retreated dejectedly, saw that their guild leader was truly enraged, throwing out 100,000 yuan as a bonus. What else could they say? One by one, they turned back and roared as they launched another river-crossing charge.
The soldiers of the Wind Blowing Legion and the Pentos Legion stared at these players in shock.
"Gods, does His Majesty actually train the Immaculate? This is their sixth charge! They must have suffered hundreds of casualties already!"
"They are true warriors!"
Even the ragged prince was generous with his praise.
Little did they know that, under the cover of darkness, the players who were killed by arrows wiped their faces, stood up, and were still soldiers.
With the constant improvements made to the Fireman, players now need to recreate their characters after being resurrected, supposedly to make the game more hardcore, but most players don't seem to care.
However, I heard that after this update, players will lose the advantage of respawning on the spot and will only be able to respawn at the nearest outpost or the initial spawn point.
This has drawn complaints from many players...
