Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 271: Bribe



When the guard in charge of the teleportation heard Carmen suddenly had a change of heart, he was stunned on the spot.

'That's exactly what my wife is like. One moment she's happy with me, and the next moment she's furious at me. Ugh, women…' The guard screamed inwardly, but on the surface, he kept a calm smile.

After all, Xu Feng had paid him quite the hefty sum of a bribe, and making a scene would simply cause him more trouble.

"Very well, Miss Lunar Wraith. But you'll need to wait a bit longer since I'll need to make the adjustment." The guard explained.

"Yes, sorry for the trouble." Carmen bowed slightly and thanked him.

She wasn't that foolish to not sense the slight displeasure from the guard. It was only for a split second, but she had been paying attention, so she caught wind of it.

As she patiently waited for the guard to make the adjustment, other players continuously returned from their adventure through the teleportation platform.

"This is really some annoying crap! Those guilds just don't want us normal players to grind at all."

"I know right. Aside from the Silver Wind Guild, every other guild is hogging the ideal grinding field and killing anyone that is not a part of them. How tyrannical of them!"

"Hmph, guilds are really garbage. I would rather join an adventure team than mingle with those bunch of greedy folks."

"Agreed, I heard some adventurer teams are hiring near the Mercenary Association. Let's head over there and see the situation."

Shortly after their loud chattering and leaving the teleportation platform in a fit of rage, Carmen was silent.

Ever since the matter of Lin Feng entering a city spread across, almost all guilds went into a frenzy.

Thus, the average players and regular adventure teams had been suffering terribly from the guilds who practically went frantic in hopes of catching up.

After all, they all knew a city's resources were far superior to any beginner's town. That was especially true even if they combined all beginner towns' resources.

'Guilds are really greedy and domineering.' Carmen thought to herself.

While distracted, the guard promptly returned to her and relayed, "Miss Lunar Wraith, you may use the teleportation platform now."

"Oh… yes, thank you." She snapped out of her daze and quickly bowed for troubling the guard.

"No worries, and do you want me to wipe out the data of your entry as well?"

"Wipe out the data?"

"Ah, it's to erase your traces so others won't know where you teleported to."

Realization dawned upon Carmen and she subtly recalled the messages Xu Feng sent. In the message, he mentioned there was no need to hide her traces.

Sure enough, once she opened up the message to double-check, she noticed he had specifically mentioned it.

Therefore, it was safe to say that Xu Feng wanted others to know where her destination was. Otherwise, Xu Feng wouldn't have told her in advance considering his actions.

"No need to erase the data," Carmen smiled lightly.

"If anyone wants to know my destination, then you are free to tell them, albeit with a charging fee since it's valuable information." She added, hinting at the guard that he could earn another hefty sum by selling out her information.

This was considered her returning the favor for troubling the guard.

Meanwhile, the guard's complexion gradually softened even better as he responded with a bright smile.

"Understood, Miss Lunar Wraith." He replied and activated the teleportation, teleporting her away.

Sure enough, once Carmen vanished from the scenes, numerous people who had been hiding in the shadows began coming up to him and asking for her whereabouts.

"Hello, sir, may I know where she went?"

"Did she teleport to another town?"

Although slightly surprised by these people for inquiring information, the guard squinted his eyes to identify them.

Soon, he realized they were equipped with a guild emblem. As he scrutinized the guild emblem on their clothes, he noticed they had the same symbol of a grim reaper holding a scythe-like weapon.

Without a doubt, these people were from the same group, and the guard yawned slightly, his hand slightly extended, hovering up and down.

The players upon seeing this action were not stupid. They glanced at each other with a disbelief expression.

"Even a guard is a money grubber." One of them muttered in a baffled tone.

Nevertheless, they still took out 1 silver coin and placed it on the guard's hand.

They were the scouts assigned by Hundred Ghost to track down Lunar Wraith.

After all, she was the key to finding out where Lin Feng went. Hence, they must accomplish this mission, otherwise, they could kiss their salary and job goodbye.

Meanwhile, the guard glanced at the 1 silver coin with a cold expression.

Who the hell did these people take him for?

Just the bribe alone that Xu Feng had given him was 1 gold coin.

Yet these people think 1 silver coin was going to make him talk?

Are these people taking him for a fool?

As for the players from the Reaver Guild, they noticed the displeasure from the guard, clearly meaning their so-called bribing fee was not enough.

'Damn, just how much did this guard want?' One of them cursed silently. He was also the person who had used his own silver coin to pay up.

Alas, no matter how resentful he was, he could only grit his teeth and continue to pay another silver coin.

Start a fight with the guard?

There were better ways to commit suicide than offending an NPC.

Some dumbass who thought they were the bomb attempted to mess with an NPC, only to end up getting killed and receiving many penalties.

Not to mention, the NPCs were far stronger than them, and the further they leveled up, the more they realized how deadly these NPCs were.

Just like that, the guard's hand continued to receive a pile of silver coins, and only when it reached 50 silver coins did the guard nod his head in slight approval.

In response, the players who practically emptied their entire wealth felt like crying.

"Miss Lunar Wraith teleported to Star Falls City. Now kindly do me a favor and fuck off!" The guard snorted coldly, unleashing his aura and sending shockwaves to the players.
