What the hell was going on?
Before Spartacus could figure out what had happened, the robots fell silent after that cryptic shout. Every mechanical eye turned toward him... or rather, above his head?
Gold! An NPC with a gold name!
"A revolutionary chosen by fate... an NPC with a prefix! This has to be a boss with a hidden quest!"
The players swarmed over, surrounding Spartacus in an instant.
Spartacus jumped in alarm, utterly baffled by his "comrades'" bizarre behavior.
"Hi, I'm the leader of the Free Fall Group. Want to add me as a friend?"
"Boss, are you still taking recruits? The kind who'll risk their lives."
"Over two hundred pounds, no wages needed, and I'll cover my own room and board. Completely free of charge. Interested, big guy?"
"Ahem! My brother from the Ryan Race, got any quests? Whether it's delivering letters, finding dogs, or braving blades and fire, if I so much as flinch, forget I said anything!"
"..."
Spartacus: "???"
While Nie Yun was busy consolidating his forces internally, and Black Sail and the Twin Dragons Camp were frantically stripping the Gold Coin Pirate Gang's assets, the pirates who had flocked over after hearing the news were in a complete uproar.
"The... the Gold Coin Pirate Gang was wiped out just like that?!"
They had expected as much when the Gold Coin Pirate Gang came under attack from all sides, but when its remaining fleet actually signaled surrender, every pirate watching still let out a string of incredulous cries.
The Shattered Star Region had seen one upheaval after another lately.
First, Black Sail and the Madmen had joined forces against Red Dragon. Refusing to back down, Red Dragon had revealed a trump card of his own, summoning the Dragon Cavalry to unite the Twin Dragons.
