"You are right, so let's not waste our time anymore. We have to intercept them

before they can reach the smart base. It will be bad if these weaklings get hurt

while we ght the enemy," Bronson did not wait for Zaneos's response as he

pulled out his long reaver, holding them in each of his hands. He was ready to

ght at any moment.

"I guess that's true. We can't ght them if we are too close to the civilians,"

Zaneos nodded and let out a sigh. "I was a demon who slaughtered countless

people before, and I have to be sacriced for the peace between human and

demon. Yet, now, I am protecting the humans; fate is surely funny." The Void

Sword muttered in a low voice as he found it was hilarious that he had to ght

for humans now.

Then the two spirits jumped o from the rooftop, heading toward the incoming

group.

"Hahaha.... I never thought we were inltrating the Legion Guild's territory so

easily," A man in his early forties laughed as he strolled on the road without

obstruction. His name was Sim Ki Nam, The Black Knight Guild's guild leader.

"It seems The Warlord Guild and the Shade Guild are doing their job well. We

don't even encounter the famous patrol team of the Legion Guild."

"Hehe, I told you, Sir Ki Nam. We just have to play smart instead of using brute

force," Oh Jae Wook, the Black Knight Guild's vice leader, let out a chuckle. If

his Guild Leader is happy, then he would be happy as well. "We just need to

meet with Sir Tae Bong and his secretary, Bak Dong Min. After that, the Legion

Guild's level 2 smart base is ours."

"How long until we reach your guild's smart base, Man-Shik?" Sim Ki Nam

turned his head and asked the man who followed him closely. Man-Shik was

Council Member Tae Bong's people and was tasked to lead the Black Knight

Guild to the smart base.

That was right; Council Member Tae Bong betrayed the Legion Guild. The

former Seoul mayor realized that he only had a little power in the Legion Guild

despite his position as the Council Member. The survivors idolized Park Nam

Hoon and his friends, more than him, who was the former mayor. He was not

satised with that and planned to change the ship, getting rid of the Legion

Guild and using the Black Knight Guild to rebuild his country. Then he would be

the President of the new country; that was his ambition.

Meanwhile, Sim Ki Nam also took the risk of betraying the World Government

and the other three guilds. He was using the three guilds to weaken the Legion

Guild's main force. He would take the level 2 smart base for himself and get rid

of whoever won the battle. That way, The Black Knight Guild would become the

sole guild in South Korea. He had the ambition to be the twelfth major faction

on Earth.

"We should arrive at the smart base in ve to ten minutes by walking, Sir,"

Man-Shik replied respectfully. He was just an errand boy, so he made sure not

to get on the bad side of these people. Tae Bong promised an easy life for him

and his family after the Black Knight Guild took over the Legion Guild. He did

not have to ght the zombies and did not need to worry about food anymore.

"You heard them, Bronson? Don't kill the guy called Man-Shik. I think Master

will be delighted if we present that Man-Shik alive."

Sim Ki Nam, Oh Jae Wook, Man-Shik, and the people behind them stopped

their steps as two gures stood in the middle of the road, blocking them. Sim Ki

Nam observed the two gures. The one on the left was a zombie with armor,

and the one on the right was unknown. He could not see it clearly because of the

straw hat. "Who are you!?" He subconsciously blurted out.

Bronson ignored Sim Ki Nam and asked Zaneos for the last time. "For the last

conrmation, so I can kill all of them except for that Man-Shik guy, right?"

"What about another twenty people, including Man-Shik? We need a few of

them alive so Master can question them. Leave those three in the front alive as

well. They seem to be important people, so they should have more information

than the others," Zaneos pointed at Kim Si Nam and Oh Jae Wook. "You can't

kill them, but you can cut their limbs."

Haven was not a guild but a group comprised of thirteen people. While they

were only thirteen people, no guild dared to oend them as those thirteen

people were high-level players. It was unclear how many of them were Epic

Ranks, but people guessed that at least eight of them were Epic Ranks. That was

the main reason why the guilds did not dare to trouble or oend Haven.

"They have been helping us to save the survivors as well. So, they are not our

enemies," Park Nam Hoon ended his explanation about The Haven after

successfully stopping Lady Aleesa from shooting the mana arrows. He did not

know what would happen, but he was pretty sure that The Haven would not

remain unscathed if Lady Aleesa shot the arrows.

At this moment, the female in black clothes managed to reach the wall and

meet with the group. A woman with long black wavy hair, around 1.8 meters

tall, walked toward them. Her face was covered in black clothing as well, from

the nose down to her neck, typical of an assassin outt in the movie. She had

two swords on her back waist, and her black eyes observed the group as she got

closer.

"Long time no see, Shadow Queen—" Cha Hyuk waved his right hand at the

woman with a big smile, but the Shadow Queen cut his words short, "My name

is So Yeon Hee. You can call me Yeon." Of course, this was not her rst time

meeting with Park Nam Hoon and his friends. That introduction meant for the

four foreign faces, Tang Shaoyang, and the three girls.

Park Nam Hoon was about to introduce Tang Shaoyang to Yeon, but he quickly

realized it was not that easy to do that. Tang Shaoyang was an Emperor, so he

had to treat him above everyone else. He could not just say, 'This is Tang

Shaoyang, our Emperor.' He felt like it was inappropriate as he needed to be

more formal around Tang Shaoyang.

"Good evening, Yeon," Yu Jin Sang took a step forward and smiled. He bowed

his head toward Tang Shaoyang and continued, "This is Your Majesty Emperor

of the Tang Empire. From today onward, the Legion Guild is part of the Tang

Empire."

Yeon Hee looked toward Tang Shaoyang as she did not expect this kind of

development. The Legion Guild that was known as the strongest guild in South

Korea, would bow their heads to the other factions. From the way Park Nam

Hoon and his friend acted around the man, it was very clear to her that this was

not a joke or a prank.

After that, Yu Jin Sang turned back to Yeon Hee with a serious look on his face.

"So, can you explain why you and your friend are staying with the Warlord

Guild? Depending on your answer, you can be our enemy."
