The Survival Rules of NPCs

Chapter 70: The Opportunity to Make a Move...

"Sis...is something really wrong?"

Just a few minutes after the group left the academy, the spies left behind at the school started using their unique code word in the channel. It turned out that the official people were indeed arresting members of the Korean Metropolitan Government, just like what the mysterious person in front of them had said. Kim Hyun-woo had not only messed up the task assigned by the chairman, but had also caused such a huge problem that it was almost a disaster!

"How would I know?" Vice President Cui Minzhi's already distorted face twisted like a demon. She wasn't a combatant; she was the guild's academic representative and the head of the law school. In terms of status, she wasn't much lower than Jin Xuanyu in the guild. After all, her connections already reached many middle-class people in Milandale. As long as she steadily gained experience, even if she couldn't get into the court, she could at least become a senior executive at a large law firm, or even run her own law firm and expand upwards by leveraging the advantages of Han Du City media.

But now, because of this idiot's mistake, he has lost everything. Without the advantage of connections from the law school, he is nothing. Even if he escapes Milandil in a sorry state, he will be a refugee without status, and he will have to start all over again!

If it weren't for Kim Hyun-woo's formidable fighting prowess, and the fact that they were on the run and desperately needed his strength, he would have already started cursing!

Kim Hyun-woo felt the resentment in everyone's eyes and felt extremely aggrieved. When the boss first proposed this plan, he didn't quite agree with it. Assassinating an official judge was too risky, and even with that legendary item, he still felt it was unnecessary.

Although the legendary item's power is incredibly exaggerated, capable of silently eliminating those one wishes, a city as large as Mirandil might not be without means of tracking. For example, this time, although the mistake was made due to negligence, the fact that the authorities were able to trace it back to Han Du immediately suggests that the so-called legendary item is not invincible. It's highly likely that some extraordinary ability was used for tracking; otherwise, it wouldn't have been possible to find Han Du so quickly!

In other words, even if he had killed the presiding judge instead of a diplomat this time, the result would have been the same. Han Duhui would have been tracked down immediately. Killing a diplomat from the North and killing a local presiding judge would have had the same result. Han Duhui, an entertainment-oriented civilian media organization, could not possibly stand up to the authorities.

The person most responsible for Han Du's current predicament is that overly arrogant chairman!

Because he was the one who did the dirty work, all the guild members are now blaming him.

Thinking of this, Kim Hyun-woo felt extremely frustrated. He could almost imagine that even if he managed to escape safely, he would most likely become a sinner of the guild in the future. The best way was to escape and leave Han Du City.

But that's not realistic either!

The reason is simple: all professions in Han City are personally handled by the guild leader. His original profession was assassin, which came from a deal between the leader and a certain religious organization. In order to control the members of the guild, the leader did not reveal any information about the deal. In other words, all the professions of the guild members are under the leader's control. He can find a way to take them away at any time because he and his companions have no idea where they came from.

What worried him more was whether Park Young-joon could keep his extraordinary profession. If the authorities investigated his information, traced the source to the trader, and erased his profession, then the problem would be huge.

Now he suddenly felt a little envious of those independent Chinese players on the black market. Without the control of a guild, they at least knew the origins of their professions. As long as they had money, they could find a way to exchange them, and at least had the opportunity to control their own destiny. But he could only be under Park Young-jun's control for the rest of his life.

"arrive!"

Disturbed and confused, the mysterious man led them through various alleyways to an apartment building outside the academy. It looked like an ordinary student apartment, but the location was rather remote. Most importantly, there seemed to be few students there, and instead, many prostitutes who sold their bodies outside the academy rented rooms there. None of them recognized them.

Upon entering the room, Cui Minzhi asked anxiously, "Why are we here? Weren't we supposed to be leaving the city?"

Sweet Rice Dumpling said as she closed the curtains, "After the diplomat was assassinated, His Majesty the Duke immediately closed the city gates. Do you think it's that easy to get out?"

"But you just said it was possible!" Cui Minzhi was extremely anxious. She only had two lives left. It was unavoidable that she couldn't keep her academic identity, but if she couldn't escape, her life would truly be in danger.

"I didn't make that promise." Sweet Rice Dumpling turned around and looked coldly at the people from Han Du City: "I just said I would do my best. At night, our people will try to sneak you into the mining team and send you out of the city, but it's not 100% guaranteed. I made the same promise to Park Young-joon. If you think it's not safe here, you can leave now."

The group fell silent. Their guild had never run a criminal organization, and everyone knew that smuggling people out, especially when the city gates were blocked, was something even the guild leader didn't have the ability to do.

"If you don't have any, then take them away quietly. By the way, to prevent you from being found out, you are now prohibited from eating. Bringing too much food at once will make you easier to be tracked down. Don't underestimate Mirandell's tracking ability."

"Thank you for your help..." Even the most sarcastic Cui Minzhi tried to force a smile, though it looked extremely ferocious.

Sweet Rice Dumpling nodded slightly, then sat down to the side, closed her eyes to rest, and said calmly, "I advise you to rest now. Once it gets tonight, you won't have time to rest. After leaving Mirandil, you'll still be on the wanted list, and it won't be easy to reach the border safely."

Everyone nodded quickly and found a seat. Kim Hyun-woo found a seat close to the sweet rice dumpling and was thinking about how to make a good impression on her.

He had never thought of leaving Han Du City before. After all, under Park Young-jun's leadership, Han Du City had been on the rise for many years, and he had enjoyed enough benefits. But now that he realized he was not in control of his own destiny, he began to think about a way out.

This guy in front of me is not only high-level, but also incredibly resourceful. He managed to find a way out even when the whole city was under lockdown. He's clearly a powerful underworld figure. If I build a good relationship with him, I might be able to find out where I came from in the future and have a chance to buy back my professional privileges through him, thus escaping Park Young-jun's control!

As the other person approached, the sweet rice dumpling tried to relax her body by closing her eyes to rest.

Everything was going smoothly, but the last step was crucial!

Kim Hyun-woo is a super assassin who is over level 20. In a direct confrontation, Mr. Bright has no one who can stand up to him. Wang Gou-dan is only level 10 or 12 and would hardly last more than a few seconds against him.

Although I am of a high enough level, the thief class has no ability to fight head-on.

Having obtained the item, she was certain that the other party wouldn't even see her taillights, thanks to the Flash Thief's spatial abilities. The difficulty lay in those few seconds of the theft.

The last time I was able to steal someone's hair so quickly was because I caught the moment they made their move. I was tracking the judge they wanted to assassinate. The instant they stole the hair, I acted the instant they put it into their spatial storage. I didn't use the Flash Thief's ability; I just took the hair directly and then used the Thief's stealing ability to put the replaced hair back into their spatial storage.

However, this time the opponent probably put the legendary item in their inventory a long time ago, so it will be more troublesome to steal the item using the methods of an ordinary thief. Ordinary thieves steal from players' inventory randomly, and more than two times will alert the opponent, so I probably only have one chance.

Of course, this method cannot be used on the luck of ordinary thieves. The best way is to use supernatural abilities to enter the other party's spatial bag.

However, the problem with this ability is that entering someone's backpack will alert them, especially at the moment of entering and exiting. Therefore, you need a way to divert their attention, and you need to be there to help them when they come out!

Because if the other party notices me, and I don't even have time to activate my spatial abilities to escape the moment I come out, I could be instantly killed by this level 20 superhuman assassin!

Therefore, the moment you go in, someone must distract Kim Hyun-woo, and the moment you come out, someone must help you dodge Kim Hyun-woo's immediate counterattack!

Sweet Rice Dumplings don't think they're safe just because Dog Egg is hiding in the shadows.

"Knock knock!"

Just as the atmosphere in the room was tense, a dull knock on the door immediately put everyone in Han City on edge!

They won't find us so quickly, will they?

"Who is it?" Kim Hyun-woo asked cautiously.

"Routine community safety check, open the door!" A serious, somber yet slightly childlike voice came from outside the door.

Kim Hyun-woo and Choi Min-ji quickly looked at the sweet rice dumpling. Kim Hyun-woo lowered his voice nervously and said, "Didn't you say this was a brothel and they didn't check identities?"

"What's the panic?" Sweet Rice Dumpling interrupted dismissively. "Judging from the voice, he's just a rookie security guard, doing a routine check. Most of the prostitutes here aren't properly registered; he's probably here for a kickback. Two women can handle him!"

"This..." Kim Hyun-woo subconsciously looked at Choi Min-ji, who sneered, "If you think my face can still play a prostitute, I don't mind giving it a try."

Upon hearing this, Kim Hyun-woo frowned and looked at another female member. The other woman was quite pretty, but her shy and timid demeanor made her unsuitable for playing the role of a prostitute.

There's nothing I can do...

Kim Hyunwoo took out a black stocking suspender dress directly from her backpack. In the astonished eyes of everyone, she transformed herself into a mature and charming woman in just a few seconds. Especially when she put on the black stockings, several men in the guild couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and even Sweet Rice Dumpling was stunned.

"Please excuse my poor attempt..." Kim Hyun-woo glanced at the sweet rice dumpling and explained, "Sometimes assassination missions require these props. I don't have any so-called cross-dressing fetish."

"Very professional..." Sweet Rice Dumpling exclaimed genuinely.

Cui Minzhi was also somewhat stunned. The other woman's outfit in those few seconds was not only flamboyant, but also more charming than her own, especially her long legs, which were outlined in black stockings and were so sexy that she felt inferior to her.

Rumors have it that the president has this kind of fetish, and now it seems that the rumors might be true.

Taking a deep breath, Kim Hyun-woo got up to open the door, and in that instant, Sweet Rice Dumpling activated her space-traveling technique.

Mr. Bright, it's up to you now...
