Chapter 526: Super Guild’s Reputation
Chapter 526: Super Guild’s Reputation
Having wasted his brain cells to come up with such a strategy, followed by wasting a precious Teleport Scroll, Zhao Kai ended up being told that it was useless right after he had done it all.
It would be a miracle if Zhao Kai didn't think that Xu Feng was toying with him.
"If you knew we couldn't do any of it, then why didn't you stop me?" Zhao Kai gnashed his teeth and glared at Xu Feng fiercely.
Xu Feng feigned innocence and defended, "How could I stop you from trying to cook? It was your monologue and time to shine. I dare not steal your spotlight."
"..."
Unamused, Zhao Kai decided not to have his own monologue again. He thought he was doing a big brain move, but it was just a dumb move all along.
And sure enough, Mint Roe who managed to witness the scene from afar, started laughing sinisterly.
"Oh my lord, there's actually a dumb player wasting a Teleport Scroll!" Mint Roe shouted in laughter, ensuring those who were still afar were able to hear what he had said.
Very quickly, the laughter became a contagious virus, with many from the Lethal Corp laughing at Zhao Kai's action.
As the laughter resounded on the battlefield, Zhao Kai's face didn't turn red from embarrassment or shame.
"Are you practicing Iceheart's cold and nonchalant expression?" Xu Feng decided to take a jab at Zhao Kai, teasing him for mimicking Iceheart's usual conduct.
"Don't lump me with your dumb Guild Commander!' Iceheart hissed coldly.
"What do you mean by dumb?" Zhao Kai slammed his shield down and glared at her.
"Hmph, if not you, then who else would be dumb enough to pull such a move?" Iceheart sneered and held her Claymore Sword.
With the battlefield soon consumed with the two arguing, Mint Roe found them more and more ridiculous.
"The Reaver Guild seriously lost to these kinds of people?" Mint Roe had to grasp his stomach real tight because of how comical this was. Rather than trying to salvage the situation of being under siege, they actually had an internal conflict among themselves.

Just when Mint Roe was laughing stomach out, he suddenly heard a loud voice.
"Mint Roe, WAKE UP! They're charging at you!" Brian, who never once lost his focus despite the comical scene, shouted his warning.
"Huh?"
Snapping out of his daze, Mint Roe quickly came back to his senses, only to notice one shield and one claymore sword swinging at him in both directions.
In that split second, Mint Roe hurriedly activated his defensive skill and decisively charged toward the shield, allowing himself to get bashed and using the impact to distance them. His health points subsequently lowered by 3% from the impact, and his expression turned cold.
"A sneak attack?" Mint Roe spat out his saliva and clicked his tongue.
"You two were pretending to argue to make me lower my guard. Not a bad tactic, but you have successfully spelled doom for yourself." He continued, his eyes narrowing at both Zhao Kai and Iceheart.
"Yeah yeah, whatever you said, Fish Roe." Zhao Kai yawned and retreated back to Xu Feng's side.
Iceheart didn't bother to say anything and did the same, positioning herself in an ideal spot.
Meanwhile, Mint Roe was still stuck on the fact that Zhao Kai had insulted his username.
"It's Mint Roe, not Fish Roe!" He hissed in a menacing tone.
"Enough!"
Brian's domineering tone echoed, prompting Mint Roe to shriek and hurriedly turn to him.
"You have embarrassed yourself enough. Don't drag the Lethal Corp name down with you." He then warned in a low tone.
"Yes, I apologize." Mint Roe pursed his lips and clenched his fist, clearly infuriated by Zhao Kai and Iceheart's actions.
He might not have taken much damage, but the scene itself had shifted the momentum. Now the ones who looked like clowns weren't those on Xu Feng's side, but rather them for taking damage first.
While Mint Roe was sulking, Brian took a few steps forward, his eyes staring directly at Xu Feng. "I've heard some rumors about your courage in the report, but I didn't expect the report to be severely underestimating you."
"Oh, you've heard of me?" Amused, Xu Feng lightly patted Carmen away to not block the view.
Carmen positioned herself to defend Xu Feng from any long-range sneak attack, but Xu Feng knew they wouldn't resort to that.
If word were to get out that the Lethal Corp had the numbers advantage but still needed to use sneaky strategy like that, then their reputation would be dragged into a pile of mud.
The Super Guilds cared about their reputation more than anything else. Of course, the reputation they cared about was somewhat special and unique.
To siege with many people against 10 people wasn't something they would mind others talking about. In fact, it was their method and aggressiveness when committing the act.
Hence, to safeguard their reputation, the Lethal Corp would without a doubt attack with honor and refrain from any sneak attacks.
And that was precisely their weakness!
"Just some bits here and there from the trash can in my office," Brian smirked and responded, clearly insulting him to be no better than the trash.
"Ah, but you have heard of me. So you must be a good garbage man to scour the trash to find details of me." Xu Feng laughed, not one to be backed into a corner in a verbal fight.
"Pfft!" Carmen and the other Vanguard Guild let out a giggle after that kind of comeback.
But contrary to their expectation, Brian didn't flip into rage like Mint Roe had.
In fact, he nodded his head in agreement.
"Yeah, I am a lowly garbage man, always assigned to take care of trash that has too big of an ego and ignorance." Brian smiled bitterly and said sorrowly.
"Is that so? Then shouldn't you clean that Fish Roe trash by now?" Xu Feng gasped and pointed at Mint Roe. "Or did your vision become so terrible due to the bad smell from the trash in the dumpsters?"
