Chapter 246: Chapter 201: Boarding Plan_3

The others watched as Taurus was swiftly kicked out and all were momentarily stunned, their gaze wavering between Aries and Gemini with bewilderment.

"Eh, Aries Boss, what’s going on here? Did Gemini swap ownership? And who are you, Gemini? Did you kill the original Gemini? How did you manage that, tell us, quickly...." Lion rattled on, his mouth churning out question after question.

"I’m not sure what you’re talking about, this ring found me a few days ago...." Gemini replied.

"The ring found you? Can that happen?" Lion asked, surprised.

"Allow me to answer."

Mu You spoke through his clone, and then took over the conversation.

"Gemini, I killed him."

"Ah...." The others were startled.

"So Gemini really did die?" Lion exclaimed, although Gemini was on their opposing side, he was still a high-level Sorcerer. It shouldn’t have been so easy for him to die. But it made sense somehow when the killer was Aries.

"After killing Gemini, didn’t you get his ring and inheritance?" Sagittarius cautiously enquired.

Mu You shook his head: "Each Sorcerer can only obtain one secret technique inheritance. After I killed Gemini, the Gemini ring disappeared. It seems like it went to look for the next inheritor."

Mu You spoke randomly, circumventing the matter to hide the fact that a single person could merge multiple Crystals. He did this to prevent others from getting greedy and causing internal strife.

In any case, only he and Lin Xue knew the truth and the others would not get a chance to verify this. So, his word would be the accepted truth.

"So it’s like that...."

The others didn’t doubt it as it seemed logical to them that each of the twelve crystals corresponded to twelve members. Mu You’s explanation was precisely in line with their expectations.

"Boss Aries, what about Taurus? I’ve seen on the news that he seems to have escaped...." Lion asked at this point.

"Taurus, I’ll deal with him later."

Mu You said: "In addition, to prevent similar incidents in the future, I want to add a rule to the Sorcerer Association: The Ten Commandments and the Wizard Association behind them are not just the enemies of players, but also the mortal enemies of the Sorcerer Association! Any collusion with the Wizard Association or unprovoked attacks on other Association members will be seen as a betrayal of the Sorcerer Association, resulting in permanently losing conference privileges and facing the hunt of all other members until death."

After he finished speaking, there was a few seconds of silence and Lion was the first to clap his hands in response: "I completely agree!"

The others glanced at each other and then nodded their heads in agreement.

"No objections."

"It’s only right...."

"That’s best."

....

Everyone expressed their agreement, and Mu You did not say anything further. From the current contact, aside from Gemini and Taurus, the other members seemed reliable.

"Also, next, each of you should privately report the city you’re currently in in the game." Mu You added.

Everyone instantly understood when they heard this. During the last meeting, Boss Aries had mentioned they should head to the coastal cities and said there might be an opportunity to arrange for them to enter the Imperial Capital. Now, it seemed he had a plan.

"I’m in Dumyat."

"I’m in Homu City."

"I’m on Lei Ze Peninsula..."

"I’m in Homu City..."

...

Mu You went on to open private chat channels with the others. After everyone reported their locations, Mu You informed them of the estimated time and docking location of the Ghost Ship passing by that city. They were asked to log in ahead of time and prepare for boarding.

Mu You also mentioned that they could bring their associates on board, but each person boarding would need to pay a one-year fare.

None of the others objected to this. For just one year’s fare, they could effortlessly get direct access to the Imperial Capital. Any veteran player wouldn’t think twice about this.

Sagittarius, on the other hand, seemed surprised after listening to Mu You’s conditions and asked: "Can I share this information with official forces?"

Not only them but all the major forces, including other adjustment bureaus like the Dragon group, had a lot of high-ranking people stuck on the way and unable to reach the Imperial Capital.

If Aries had the means to carry people over, he should take as many people as he could.

"You can, but make sure to tell them clearly to guarantee the identity security of those boarding." Mu You nodded. This was part of his plan. Bringing more people would not only increase the success rate of the tower-pushing mission but also make him more money from fares.

As for how to ensure the identity security of those boarding, he wouldn’t have to worry. The professional departments of the government would naturally have ways to screen.

Furthermore, even if the information were leaked, it wouldn’t be a problem. The truly difficult checkpoints were on the outskirts of the Empire. As long as the first two barricades were crossed, they could directly take the accessible underground rivers after that, and the Empire could not intercept them any longer. At most, they could blockade the rivers in the Imperial Capital and block them outside the city.

As long as he can get the people to the outskirts of the capital, Mu You would have completed his task. After that, these experts would use their abilities to infiltrate the city. Even if they couldn’t get in, they could still support from the outside.

After arranging these matters, half an hour had passed and the others had begun today’s card exchange.

After Mu You presented the scrolls he promised to Cancer and Aquarius last time, he showcased three new secret techniques: Wooden Clone, Life Barrier, and Life Draining.

All three of these techniques were incredibly powerful, especially the Life Barrier which was hailed as a life-saving technique and was naturally well-received.

In the end, Mu You traded two Life Barrier cards and one Life Draining card for three new secret techniques: Mana Drain, Netherworld Demon Child, and Ice Armor Technique.

Although these were called new secret techniques, he had already used these himself in the fight with the black-robed people and knew their effects.

Unfortunately, there were no Life element spell scrolls this time.

However, his clone received a low-level Thunder Element spell scroll: Lightning Ball Technique from Capricorn. Similar to the usual Fireball or Nether Fire techniques, it involves conjuring an element ball to deal certain damage along with a shock effect. He would return a scroll after he tried to manufacture Black Magic.

Given the precedent set by Small Fireball and Nether Fire Blast, Mu You naturally didn’t underestimate this low-level spell. He gladly accepted the offer through his clone.
