164: Chapter 164 New Intelligence! Abyss Crystal!

On the other side.

The fatty who had led the way at the beginning was currently running for his life.

The moment he saw Captain Sun Shan get insta-killed.

The fatty had already realized something was wrong.

The situation was dire.

So he gave up resisting immediately.

He turned around and ran at the first opportunity.

Listening to the screams coming from behind him, the fatty pushed his speed to the limit.

One could even say he was using every ounce of strength he had.

But the sounds coming from behind were growing fainter and fainter...

Even the sound of heavy objects hitting the ground had stopped.

The fatty felt his throat go a bit dry.

So many people...

Could they not even stall for two minutes...?

As he fled rapidly, unable to suppress his terror, he looked back.

Hiss...

With this look, the fatty immediately gasped.

Behind him, there wasn't a single living person left.

His teammates, who had been alive just moments ago, were now all cold corpses.

The ground was soaked in blood.

However, the fatty made a strange discovery.

He did not see Lin Mo's figure.

Could it be...

Did this guy not notice me after killing the other teammates?

This thought arose in the fatty's mind.

However, the next moment.

He suddenly crashed into something.

The other party didn't budge at all.

The fatty turned his head, puzzled.

There shouldn't be any obstacles on this path, right?

But after turning his head and seeing clearly.

The fatty was scared out of his wits.

Because what he had just bumped into wasn't a rock or a tree.

It was the blood-stained Lin Mo.

"Leaving in such a rush?"

Lin Mo chuckled: "Won't you stay and chat?"

A smile uglier than crying appeared on the fatty's face, and then he simply plopped down on his knees in front of Lin Mo.

"Big Brother! Big Brother, I was wrong, please spare me."

"I kept telling them not to do this."

"I was forced into it!"

Lin Mo shook his hand, flicking off the blood and brain matter from his gauntlets, "Alright, stop acting."

"That man with the wolf-tail braid just now, he wasn't your Guild Master, was he?"

When he fought that person, Lin Mo had already realized it.

The opponent's strength was problematic; it wasn't the Tier 4 Rank 9 strength he had imagined.

So Lin Mo suspected that the other person wasn't the Guild Master of the Nilin Guild at all.

The fatty nodded quickly, "No, he is our captain; the Guild Master did not participate in this operation."

"The Guild Master didn't come?" Lin Mo frowned slightly.

Adhering to the principle of cutting weeds and eliminating roots.

Since he had already clashed with the people of this guild.

Lin Mo had originally intended to just wipe out their Guild Master as well.

Turns out he didn't even come.

What a waste of his caution just now.

The fatty smiled bitterly: "The Guild Master is a Tier 4 powerhouse just like you, so naturally he doesn't look down on the gains inside this Worm Pit..."

Lin Mo didn't correct his perception of his own strength.

"Then where is your Guild Master? What is the current situation of the Nilin Guild? Tell me everything honestly."

Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to winning every battle.

From the fatty's mouth, Lin Mo learned quite a bit about the Nilin Guild.

Its Guild Master is named Guild Master Liu Feng, a Tier 4 Rank 9 powerhouse, and the Vice Guild Master Shi Qiong is Tier 4 Rank 3.

Inside the guild, there are eight other Tier 3 captains like Captain Sun Shan.

And those at Tier 2 are basically ordinary members.

There aren't many people, less than a hundred in total.

However, after understanding the details.

Lin Mo realized that this guild was even more black-hearted than he had imagined.

In fact, today's incident wasn't the first time they had done this.

Every year when the Imperial Capital Academy is about to start, new students come to this Sunset Plain.

Some new students, extremely confident, choose to enter in small groups or even alone.

They would secretly follow them, and once they found an opportunity, they would directly kill them and steal their resources!

Besides targeting those arrogant, lone new students, they also take on jobs hired by newcomers.

And then intentionally guide others to the Worm Pit.

Thereby increasing the death bonus pool.

It is precisely for this reason that they were so furious after discovering the Worm Pit had been cleared out.

They wanted to take down Lin Mo.

Because in their eyes, the resources there belonged to them in the first place.

Lin Mo thought to himself.

It seems that no matter where you are, as long as there are people, you must remain vigilant.

The guards of the Shengjing City can only guarantee safety within the Shengjing City.

Once you leave for the wild.

This place is always a world where the strong prey on the weak.

"Alright, anything else to confess?" Lin Mo asked casually.

His right hand was already slightly raised, ready to let this fatty die.

The fatty's mind was completely filled with thoughts of how to survive.

He wished he could blurt out even the color of his underwear.

"Oh, right!"

"The Guild Master once attacked students from the Imperial Capital Academy, poisoning them to death! He took a lot of things, skill stones, abyss crystals!"

"They did all of this! Big Brother, I am also a victim!"

"If it weren't for life's necessities, I would have run away long ago!"

The fatty wiped his tears, looking aggrieved.

"I also tried to advise them, but they wouldn't listen!"

However, Lin Mo didn't pay any attention to his sob story, "Tell me more about the abyss crystal you just mentioned."

"It was when a genius from the Imperial Capital Academy, who was also a Tier 4, wanted to hire our guild to help him collect a material."

"The Guild Master agreed at the time, then intentionally got close to him, and finally poisoned him to kill him, and then got the material."

"That abyss crystal..." The fatty thought for a few seconds and said: "The Guild Master originally wanted to sell it, but was afraid of being discovered, so he kept it as a collection."

Lin Mo was lost in thought.

Things like abyss crystals are only produced when the Abyss Portal is not yet stable.

The Imperial Capital Academy takes the death of students extremely seriously.

They will definitely launch an investigation.

If the Nilin Guild were to take out the abyss crystals now, they would definitely be suspected.

That's why the other party kept this thing.

"How many are there?" Lin Mo asked.

"I remember... there seem to be five... five of them?" The fatty stammered.

Lin Mo's eyes lit up.

Five abyss crystals? Even if they were all judged as Tier 1 abyss crystals.

For him, that would be a full 30 million+ experience points!

Even if he spent these few days soaking in the Sunset Plain, he might not be able to obtain such experience points.

It seems...

It's necessary to pay a visit to this Nilin Guild.

Lin Mo also asked the fatty for the specific location.

The fatty begged repeatedly: "Big Brother, I've told you everything you asked, please let me go, I beg you! I really was forced into all of this."

Lin Mo's expression was calm, "Oh? Forced into it?"

"That means you're just an errand boy, right?"

The fatty nodded frantically, "Yes!"

"Oh, that's interesting."

Lin Mo said with a smile.

"Would your Guild Master just casually tell an errand boy about killing a genius from the Imperial Capital Academy?"
