Down to Dismount
"The Future Elite Group has announced the method for breaking through level 30. We guessed correctly; the final hurdle is becoming Intermediate Mecha Pilot!"
Inside the meeting room at the Galaxy Guild headquarters, President Wang Xinghe addressed the group.
"They really are always one step ahead! Do you know what methods they're using?" (Light of the Galaxy)
"Find an NPC Master, complete quests and you'll become an intermediate driver directly," Wang Xinghe.
"Becoming an apprentice? It's the same method as us! But this method isn't widely used! And the difficulty of becoming an apprentice..." Light of the Galaxy glanced at the person next to her and said with some difficulty in saying it.
"As long as the path is right! I'm almost done with the mission, so you don't need to rush!" Star River Phoenix Cry.
"You said the same thing a couple of days ago, brother, do you know how much money we've spent?" said Star River Golden Sand, the treasurer of the Galaxy Guild.
"Quiet down, the mission over there must continue no matter what. Thousand King isn't level 30 yet, this is our chance! As for us, let's keep searching!" Wang Xinghe.
"Yes!"
Such conversations are not limited to the Star River; they are happening in other guilds as well, and among those Hidden Faction.
These people are like leeches, clinging to the Future Guild to absorb its nutrients.
However, the Future Guild is currently strong and doesn't care about them; in fact, they are intentionally supporting them.
When the time comes, they'll add something different to the blood, something they'll never forget.

A few days later
After Old Wang easily resolved the trouble caused by Liao Wuhen, the Future Guild encountered no further setbacks and easily crushed their way into the top ten.
Apart from Future, other major guilds also rarely encountered problems this time, with seven of the top ten being relatively well-known gaming guilds.
If things go smoothly with the Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon, they should be able to get in as well.
As for why this is the case, Old Wang and others analyzed that it's because this team's matches are closer to the game modes that these large guilds are familiar with.
While those in the Hidden Faction had far better coordination and technical execution than those in the major tournaments, they underestimated the impact of the game mode.
These professional Player have an unparalleled knack for collecting game resources; even elite special forces in the real world can't compare to them.
Although those Hidden Faction all had an initial advantage, without exception, they were all defeated by Superweapon.
This result also caused the stock prices of all Game Company to rise, and further capital inflows.
Apart from the freak that Future, the shares of other guilds have been further divided up.
Old Wang and his gang had considered joining forces with them; it would be good if everyone could make money together.
If you help me profit from others' losses, I'm willing to be your henchman.
Old Wang, who was one of the many "leeks" (victims) in his previous life, really didn't care about those things.
But these people were too greedy; they only wanted Old Wang and his men to be their henchmen, not to be their victims.
"What are you even talking about? Old Wang just told them all to get lost. You're not going to let me harvest your crops, are you? Well then, I'll find a way to harvest you!"
This directly led to an almost irreconcilable conflict between the Future Guild. If neither side were to back down, the fight would definitely continue indefinitely.
There are no matches today; the finals for each competition are still being prepared, but Old Wang didn't log into the game.
Because he was called away, the Potion he used at the hospital that day attracted the attention of those in higher positions.
This kind of thing, which can solve almost all of the body's problems in an instant, is too precious and too eye-catching.
"May I ask who you are?"
After arriving at the hospital's memorial room, Old Wang looked at the many people who had already arrived in the conference room and asked...
He really hadn't expected so many people to come. After all, this thing should still be a secret at this stage. How did it become so common knowledge?
"You're the Thousand King?" No one in the room answered his question. A man with a slicked-back hairstyle spoke up.
"That's right, may I ask who you are?" Old Wang's lips curled up slightly as he seemed to have thought of something, and he looked at the man and asked.
"You don't need to know who I am. I think you should know why we've called you here, right?" the slick-back-haired man said arrogantly.
The others in the room frowned upon hearing this. Wasn't that their plan? And they hadn't even arrived yet; was it appropriate for you to say such a thing?
Although they thought what the person said was inappropriate, they ultimately didn't say anything more.
"Ha! Dude!" Old Wang muttered with a laugh after looking around for a few seconds, then left without looking back.
Who knows where this "big shot" came from, trying to intimidate him, haha!
Old Wang is not afraid of any of the forces in the real world, not to mention what price would it take for someone like him to be targeted in today's society.
He said that with Zero around, he fears no power. He just doesn't want to use this Superweapon, not that they can bully him.
"What do you mean? Illegal restriction of personal freedom? I'm calling the police!"
Old Wang was unable to leave the house because two men in black blocked his way.
"Thousand King, please be calm. We have no ill intentions. Director Gu can testify to this," said an elderly man with white hair, pointing to another middle-aged man in the crowd.
But Old Wang didn't even glance at him. He had come at their invitation and had given everyone in the room face by arriving on time.
Even after joining the crew, he took the initiative to speak with them. When that person spoke rudely, he remained polite and even used honorifics.
But all he got in return was a show of force from that person, though he wasn't disappointed in them.
In the few seconds he looked at everyone in the room, if even one person had stood up and said a word for him, he wouldn't have turned around and left.
Even the words this man is speaking now are full of threats, because that Director Gu is the second-in-command of his city.
But what difference does it make to Old Wang? A bunch of disrespectful people. I don't care who you are. Even if the Emperor himself came, he'd be leaving today.
After listening to his words, Old Wang went to the door again, and the two men in black blocked his way once more.
But this time, Old Wang didn't tolerate them. He put his hands in his pockets and kicked one of them.
These two were clearly trained. After seeing Old Wang's movements, they tried to control him, but they underestimated Old Wang's strength, which had already surpassed human limits.
A cracking sound of bones breaking rang out. The person who tried to block his attack with his leg bent at an unnatural angle and flew backward, crashing heavily into the corridor wall behind him.
The other person, seeing his companion's plight, immediately went to help him up. Seeing his companion's miserable state, he had only one thought in his mind: thank goodness this is a hospital, we can go straight to the ICU.
After doing all this, Old Wang wasn't in a hurry to leave, because leaving would only give others cause for gossip.
"Hello, this is XX Hospital. Someone is illegally restricting my personal freedom and has already started. Please come quickly!"
"Lawyer Zhang? Come to the hospital, I need your help with something!"
He clicked on the virtual projector, selected the option to call the police, and then contacted his lawyer.
All of this was clearly seen by the group that had just arrived from a distance and by the people in the room behind them.
"..."
They were truly stunned by the display of skill and were speechless for a moment.
But while they were stunned, someone else was not. After receiving news that their companion had been injured, a large group of men in black surrounded Old Wang.
"What are you looking at?" Old Wang, who was leaning against the wall waiting for the police and lawyers, said to the people staring at him menacingly.
"You..."
Old Wang truly lives up to his Old Wang; his Taunt skills are absolutely maxed out. With just one sentence, he completely shut them down, and several of them wanted to rush up to him for revenge.
"Stop! Look at the state you're in!" An elderly man from the crowd stepped forward and addressed the men in black. Seeing that they had calmed down, he added:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wang. I'm Black Six from the Black-Clad Bodyguard Company. My men have caused you trouble. I'm truly sorry!"
Old Wang looked at the burly man who called himself Black Six with dead fish eyes and said, "No need to apologize to me. I've already called the police. You can explain to them later!"
The logo on that Black Six- piece suit is exactly the same as that slicked-back haircut. Are you playing the good cop/bad cop game with me?
However, Old Wang's words left Black Six confused. Judging from his bewildered expression, there must be something he didn't know.
