"Kill them all!"
Following Ironblood Ruthless's order, thousands of players from the Ironblood Guild swept across the battlefield.
In an instant, the few hundred players from Gale Studio were completely wiped out.
At first, Lin Mo thought the reinforcements from Golden Age Guild had arrived, and was surprised they had come so fast.
Only then did he realize that not long ago, he had already sent Gao Han a request for help through the clone, and Gao Han had brought guild members here.
But Lin Mo hadn't expected the ones attacking Gale Studio to be the Ironblood Guild.
Previously, over at the Undead Bone Capital, Ironblood and Golden Age had conflicts. The two sides could be considered enemies.
Lin Mo had even used his clone, under the identity of a Golden Age Guild member, to represent Golden Age's side and repeatedly crush Ironblood Ruthless dozens of times in the Undead Arena, making him, the guild leader of Ironblood Guild, lose all face.
Under those circumstances, why would Ironblood Ruthless help him?
Just as Lin Mo was wondering about this, Ironblood Ruthless walked up to Mo.
With a warm tone and attitude, he got straight to the point, "Mo, join our Ironblood Guild. Whatever treatment Golden Age gives you, I can give too."
"Besides that, as long as you agree to join Ironblood Guild, I'll also give your girlfriend Zhao Ling'er an elder position in the guild. From now on, I guarantee nobody will look down on her in any way because of some of her special circumstances."
While speaking, Ironblood Ruthless glanced at Director Zhang nearby, who was feeling extremely guilty, then continued to Mo, "And I can guarantee you this too. In our Ironblood Guild, no matter when, something filthy and disgusting like internal members scheming against each other will never happen."
'Good lord! So he came to poach people?'
Sure enough, in the world of Divine Oracle, strong people are in demand no matter where they go.
Right after Ironblood Ruthless finished speaking, before Lin Mo could respond through the clone, a voice came from the distance, "You've got some nerve! You dare come poach people from my Golden Age Guild?"
Looking toward the voice, they saw the level 54 sword-shield warrior Gao Han leading the army of Golden Age Guild as they marched over in force.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
At once, every player in the area became tense.
The moment Golden Age and Ironblood met, both sides immediately drew weapons against each other.
A strong smell of gunpowder spread through the crowd.
A battle could break out at any moment.
Lin Mo felt flattered that two guilds were about to clash because of him.
But this wasn't the outcome he wanted to see.
'If I can use this chance to make Golden Age and Ironblood reconcile, and have them help me fight against Divine Nation together, tonight's operation will definitely succeed.'
So Lin Mo controlled the clone and explained to Gao Han, "It's a misunderstanding, President Gao. Ling'er and I were ambushed just now. Thanks to Ironblood Guild stepping in, we managed to get out of danger."
Mo's words reminded Gao Han of something.
Before arriving here, Mo had already told him the whole story.
Gao Han suddenly turned around and walked up to Director Zhang.
His gaze turned cold, "Didn't I say that whoever dares target Mo and Zhao Ling'er, I, Gao Han, will definitely cripple them?"
Even though Director Zhang felt guilty, he still refused to submit.
He said confidently, "So what if I targeted Mo? I just don't like him!"
"I've been one of the veterans of Golden Age Group for ten years. Without exaggerating, the Golden Age Group wouldn't be where it is today without contributions from veterans like us."
"When President Ruan Tian was still here, even he gave us veterans some respect. Are you really going to get rid of me, a veteran, for the sake of a newcomer who hasn't even joined Golden Age for a full day yet?"
Director Zhang spoke with full confidence and imposing momentum.
All the members of Golden Age Guild around them were watching.
Director Zhang secretly felt pleased with himself. He thought this "emotional card" would force Gao Han, under pressure, to kick Mo out, removing a huge obstacle for himself.
Then it would also become much easier for him to control Zhao Lingyun.
But he never expected Gao Han not to buy it at all.
"Nice emotional play. But I'm Gao Han, not Ruan Tian."
"So what if I remove you?"
Gao Han's cold gaze swept across Director Zhang and the Gale Studio players behind him.
"Go settle things with finance. Starting tomorrow, you don't need to report to Golden Age anymore."
After saying that, with a look from Gao Han, before Director Zhang even had the chance to explain, dozens of personal bodyguards personally trained by Gao Han rushed forward from all sides and instantly killed Director Zhang along with more than ten Gale Studio players on the spot.
Seeing this scene, none of the other veterans in Golden Age Guild dared make a move.
On the other side, Ironblood Ruthless and Ironblood Mission were filled with disappointment.
"Damn! Gao Han isn't playing by the rules."
"It would've been great if he got rid of Mo. Then we could've picked him up and pulled him into Ironblood."
After dealing with Director Zhang, Gao Han shifted his gaze to Ironblood Ruthless.
"I already let the matter at the Undead Bone Capital slide last time."
"But this time, you openly came to poach my people, you think I am stupid? Or naive?"
This time, Ironblood Ruthless also showed no intention of backing down.
He confronted Gao Han directly, "Mo staying in your Golden Age is a waste of his talent. What? You want him following you to build houses?"
"Only in Ironblood Guild can he get better development."
Gao Han let out a cold snort, "Our Golden Age builds houses. What about you?"
"Don't think I don't know. Your Ironblood Guild is just a factory business in real life. What good development can Mo get following you? What? Are you planning to have him screw bolts in your factory?"
Ironblood Ruthless's old face reddened.
"You actually investigated me?"
"In that case, there's nothing left to say between us. Let's settle it with strength directly. The strong stay with the strong!"
Neither Gao Han nor Ironblood Ruthless gave way to the other.
Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
Just as the players behind both guild leaders drew their weapons,
Mo suddenly stepped between Gao Han and Ironblood Ruthless.
First, he said to Gao Han, "Since I am already Golden Age's vice guild leader, that won't change. President Gao can rest assured."
Then he turned to Ironblood Ruthless and said, "Although I can't join Ironblood, I can recommend someone to you. Let him join Ironblood in my place. From now on, our two sides reconcile. What do you think, Guild Leader Ruthless?"
Ironblood Ruthless hesitated for a moment, then asked half suspiciously, "This person... can match your strength?"
"About equal."
The moment Mo spoke those four words, doubts immediately spread through the Ironblood Guild crowd, "Brother, don't just randomly find someone to fool us! There's actually someone in Inferno City who can match you? If you're talking about Rulebound, then I'll believe it! Anyone else? No way!"
"I don't believe it either!"
"Yeah! Unless you call him over for us to see!"
Amid the constant questioning, Mo looked past the crowd toward a sword-shield warrior slowly walking over from the distance, wearing fully enclosed black armor with a shadow greatsword strapped to his back.
"He's here."
