Chapter 1375 - Retreat! (1/2)
“What is going on at Saga City?”
Although it was just a short sentence, it was enough to make Lava Teeth feel like death.
The only reason for Lava Teeth to have such a reaction was because the person who sent the message was the boss of Black Dragon Guild, Black Dragon King.
It was known that Black Dragon Guild was a corporate style guild and they had stricter hierarchy rules. In simpler terms, Black Dragon King was the CEO and also the Chairman of Black Dragon Guild.
Lava Teeth was like a general manager.
According to the rules, if Lava Teeth faced problems, the person contacting Lava Teeth should be his direct boss and Lava Teeth should report to him, then his boss would submit the matter to the headquarters. Now that Black Dragon King skipped the procedures to ask Lava Teeth about this, it meant that the matter was serious.
Black Dragon King had no choice but to do that either.
If the general manager merely caused small losses on the company, Black Dragon King could not be bothered.
But what was Lava Teeth doing?
Losing a part of the company to another party? Black Dragon King could not sit back any longer.
Lava Teeth started reporting everything to the chairman since he already asked. Lava Teeth told Black Dragon King everything from when Quan Zhen Sect robbed Karl to them handing the seal over to Sanguine Alliance.
“Quan Zhen Sect?”
The Japanese were already bad at gaming and Black Dragon King was a businessman himself. Hence, he would not have heard about Quan Zhen Sect at all. Since Lava Teeth described Quan Zhen Sect to be so difficult to deal with, he asked, “How many people does that Quan Zhen Sect have?”
“This…”
Lava Teeth paused.
It was no wonder he was the boss. He immediately asked Lava Teeth the question that he wanted to avoid the most.
How should Lava Teeth answer this question?
Though Saga City was a small city and did not have as many players as the Chinese, they had fifty to sixty thousand people still, equivalent to Twilight City’s population.
Black Dragon Guild players occupied one-third of the population with an amount of 20 thousand players.
On the other hand, Quan Zhen Sect only had a little more than 10 people…
Even Lava Teeth felt unreal that a city with 20 thousand Black Dragon Guild Players could not prevent Karl from getting abducted by a few people. What would others think then?
The bosses will not care about how hard the process was as they only cared about the results.
If Lava Teeth continued lying, it would concern his moral standing. Black Dragon Guild could find out everything about Quan Zhen Sect within seconds, so there was no point lying about Quan Zhen Sect.
However, if Lava Teeth really spoke the truth, it would tell a lot about his capability.
With such a weak display, would he get fired?
Lava Teeth did not want to lie to Black Dragon King nor get fired, so he gave an answer that was a little indirect, “Quan Zhen Sect is not important. The main problem is that the Sanguine Alliance has way more people than we do!”
“Oh?” Just like what Lava Teeth expected, Black Dragon King’s subject was successfully diverted and continued asking, “How many players do they have?”
Lava Teeth was relieved and reported to Black Dragon King, “Sanguine Alliance is a guild ranked top 10 in China, the average rank of the players are level 52. Players online daily are at 30 thousand people! They are very powerful!”
“En!” Black Dragon King muttered to himself and said, “I have heard that the Chinese players are better in the game, but why didn’t you report to me when such a big thing happened?”
“This…” Lava Teeth replied, “I thought I could get it back, but I did not expect our opponents to be so hard to deal with.”
