OmniClass Boss - Chapter 54
Chapter 54: Corny Plot
When Xiao Yu read till here, his stomach was full of mockable moments, and he thought, “What kind of hero is this? An Alliance Hero? I didn’t even see that Ruslan at all, okay? If it wasn’t for those damn Adventurers being too hard to deal with, I’d have beaten your sh*t out in a minute.
“Fought hard? I was the one who fought hard! Well, it was not easy for me to lead a bunch of weak monsters to fight with two groups of players.”
It could be seen from this that although the Adventurer players were very powerful in the game, they hardly had a sense of presence in the game plot. It was them who killed the monsters in Night Whisper Village and defeated the monsters badly, but the biggest credit went to the NPC whose name was not even heard before. At most, they would add one more sentence saying “with the help of some Adventurers”. Hence, no matter how strong you were in the game, you would just become one of the “some Adventurers”, without your name being mentioned.
However, there were trade-offs. Although Bosses and Heroes could leave their names on the plot, once they were killed, they were really dead. So it was hard to say which side was better.
Xiao Yu shook his head and did not worry about this problem. Anyway, different people had different values. Maybe the Adventurer players did not even care about how they would be recorded in the Firmament Archive and just wanted the best equipment.
However, Xiao Yu felt that it was strange that the Firmament Archive did not mention how he had been instructed by Demonic Blaze Overlord Carax, or the Elemental Seed. It seemed that the Firmament Archive would not mention everything that had happened. These things might only be disclosed after the plot was completed. But Carax was doomed to lose the Elemental Seed, and he was not sure if he would know the truth one day.
He closed this tab and searched for the key word: Shadow Brotherhood. Soon, he found a lot of relevant materials of plot descriptions.
Firmament Archive: Volume of Aizelasi—Chapter of the Alliance—Human History—Section 445—Secret Document of MI7
Firmament Archive: Volume of Aizelasi—Chapter of the Alliance—Human History—Section 615—The Story of The Treason of The Ace Spy, Dakar Rhode
Firmament Archive: Volume of Aizelasi—Chapter of the Alliance—Human History—Section 627—The Founding of the Shadow Brotherhood
The Shadow Brotherhood was founded in Firmament Age 1374, and the stories before and after its founding were ups and downs. At the beginning, there was only a Human Bandit organization in West Wild, which was the Difia Brotherhood, and its predecessor was the Stonemason Guild of the Storm Kingdom. The Stonemason Guild’s leader was the famous Edwin VanCleef. Under his lead, the Stonemason Guild participated in the construction of the new Storm Kingdom, but after the completion of the construction, Edwin VanCleef encountered a problem that many contractors would encounter—the boss repudiated the debt. The nobles of Storm City refused to pay the Stonemason Guild wages with the excuse of lack of funds, and at the same time, they tried to bribe Edwin VanCleef with a noble title.
When Edwin VanCleef did not manage to get back the wages, he led armed guild members to demand payment. As a result, they were brutally suppressed. Edwin VanCleef took the survivors and escaped from Storm City, founded the Difia Brotherhood in West Wild, and began their life as an armed regime.
In order to break up this huge criminal gang, Storm City sent the secret agent team of MI7, with Dakar Rhode as the leader. Dakar Rhode, with his amazing acting skills and personal charm, secretly infiltrated the Difia Brotherhood and gained the trust of the leader, Edwin VanCleef.
In an ensnare operation, he and his team members successfully ambushed and killed Edwin VanCleef.
Before his death, Edwin VanCleef claimed that his career was just, and brought out the corruption evidence of the nobles of Storm City, and many other pieces of evidence. This evidence proved that the nobles of Storm City had been bribed by unholy forces, as well as committed various illegal acts. Dakar Rhode was shocked when he received the evidence, and started to doubt the justice of his work. He then presented this evidence to the Storm City Council, hoping that they would punish those greedy and decanted nobles.
However, he did not expect that the evidence would disappear strangely. Not only that, his secret service team was also arrested for treason and was about to be executed.
Dakar Rhode was not willing to die like this. He used his master Bandit skills to lead the team to escape from the prison of Storm City on a dark night. They ran back to West Wild and founded the Shadow Brotherhood there. He swore to take revenge on Storm City and reclaim his justice in his own way.
At the same time, Vanessa VanCleef, Edwin VanCleef’s daughter, inherited his position as the leader of the Difia Brotherhood, and found Dakar Rhode. After a secret conversation, Vanessa forgave Dakar Rhode for killing her father, and they combined their forces. The Shadow Brotherhood and the Difia Brotherhood merged.
Later, Vanessa married Dakar Rhode, and from then on, Dakar Rhode dominated West Wild and was constantly fighting with Storm City.
The more Xiao Yu read, the more he admired Dakar Rhode. Dakar Rhode was talented, and this plot could be used to shoot Mission Impossible. What a corny plot! Although the Firmament Archive made it clear, Xiao Yu did not believe that it was an accident that Dakar Rhode was wronged. Apparently, Dakar Rhode had planned this since he joined MI7, and it was likely that he was trying to save the kingdom by taking a devious path. First, he played the Soldier Mode, levelled to a certain level, entered MI7, then accepted the mission of killing VanCleef, and got a bunch of Reputation Points before he rebelled. This plot event could get him some more Reputation Points, then he could become a Boss.
As for why Vanessa could forgive him for killing VanCleef, it was simple. This game had a favorability system. As long as the favorability was high enough, revenge of a father’s death was not a big deal. Dakar Rhode had probably planned and made sure that Vanessa’s favorability towards him had reached the maximum before he killed VanCleef. After VanCleef’s death, Vanessa naturally became the next leader of the Difia Brotherhood. Then he would escape and use their relationship to combine their forces.
If the truth was the same as he guessed, then Dakar Rhode had really racked his brain and made every move only after careful deliberation.
As he was thinking, Xiao Yu suddenly felt a blackness in front of his eyes. He rubbed his eyes, and that darkness quickly covered his vision. Then he fainted.
“Hey, wake up. Are you okay?” He opened his eyes and saw Liu Xiaoyu looking at him anxiously.
“I’m fine, I’m fine.” Xiao Yu straightened his body, but the porridge was all over his face.
After he wiped his face with a tissue, Xiao Yu looked at the time. Fortunately, he had only fainted for a few minutes. He even doubted whether he had actually fainted—maybe he had just taken a nap.
“Then why did you faint?”
Xiao Yu was also a little puzzled. Although he lacked exercise and was a bit weak, fainting was a first for him.
“I didn’t faint, I just took a nap,” Xiao Yu explained.
“I think you’d better go for a check-up, I don’t think you look very well.” Liu Xiaoyu looked worried. “If being a professional player will make me faint easily, I’d better not be one.”
One second ago, Xiao Yu was still touched and thought that she really cared for him, but he was speechless the second after.
