A three day journey in game was finally over as Serenity reached the entrance to the valley that sat between two ridges. The sun had not come up yet as Ryu asked everyone to come to a full stop. "Everyone, stay on alert. Chi, you have the best night vision. What is the status of Golden Sword and The Queen's Throne?"

"They also stopped. Whether they are planning something right now or not, I do not kn..." Chi's report was interrupted when GreenHat cut in. "Ryu, we captured five people from the other guilds trying to sneak their way into our group."

"Just kill them and send them back, no need to hold on to them. Anyone who tries to pretend to be part of our guild, just take them out. Chi, continue, please." Ryu did not plan to take any prisoners since it would require hauling them all the way back to their guild house to do so.

"Ahem… As I was saying after being so rudely interrupted… The Queen's Throne seems to be hanging further back. I do not think they will try anything right away. Wait… We got movement! Should I deal with it?" Chi asked. She was actually getting kind of excited. She had not killed any players since that time she was with Ryu.

"Chi, darling~, don't be taking all the fun for yourself. I think a lot of us would love to be able to get some fun in. Right boys!?" Margie cut in. He was currently wearing light leather armor and a huge broadsword on his back. He was ready and raring to go.

"Yeah! Let us fight too!" Many of the members responded to Margie's call to arms.

Ryu let out a sigh. He wanted to just take care of things quickly, but it seemed plans had changed since so many were itching to go to war. "Alright, but priority is to keep the lower levels from dying. I still want them to have the chance to battle a world boss. Chi, you and I will sit back and help those who need it."

Chi pouted hearing this, but since many wanted to fight, if she went in, it wouldn't make it fun for them. "Alright… But I get to beat up BurningToast and that Gene guy."

Ryu chuckled as he said: "Alright, I will be on full defense then."

On Golden Swords side Gene and BurningToast were marching forward with the guild members behind them. "Kill them all!"

"Gene, we should wait until we have heard from our capture team." BurningToast was beginning to get nervous. If they just rushed in like this without capturing the fox girl to keep Ryu busy, they would surely lose!

"What is there to worry about? Our capture team is made up of our core players. There is no way they could fail! How long has Golden Sword been around? When had you ever seen me lose a battle?" Gene asked with a snort.

"That time when we tried to take Galaxy Pains fortress in that game called steel armor. That time when we played that strange box game. That time..." BurningToast continued to list off a long list of losses that were all caused by Gene's inability to be patient.

Gene's face turned black as he kicked BurningToast. "That was all years ago! Golden Sword would not be here today if it weren't for those mistakes before. I am talking about now!"

"That time in the inn when that big burly guy with makeup and a dress on made you bend over that table, dropped your pants, and spanked your bare behind in front of all those people? Ouch! What did you punch me in the face!?" BurningToast yelled out in pain as he covered his nose. The bastard in front of him actually punched him!

"I said never speak about that!" Gene yelled. He had never been so humiliated in his entire life! "Anyway, we are moving out. Kill everyone!"

With the bugle sounded, the over one hundred members of Golden Sword rushed forward with their weapons drawn. Serenity was already waiting for this so they were not caught off guard by the sudden attack. In fact, they were more than ready as the ones on the front lines were those trained by the numbers. The coordination was top notch.

"First wave is incoming ranged DPS, begin your attack! Front line prepare for incoming!" Number 8 yelled out. He was the one in charge of most of the training for guild members. In real life, he was actually in charge of the training for the elite military units for the Evergreen special forces, and in the past two weeks, he had been putting a good portion of the guild members through hell training.

Once Gene heard the yells from Serenity's side, a big smile formed on his lips. " Send out the array team. Capture the fox girl and whoever else you can inside." Gene had planned for Serenity to defend themselves. As long as they put up a fight, the better the chance for them to complete their plans. He did not tell BurningToast that the team he sent out earlier had been in contact with him this entire time privately. He did not want someone to have a loose tongue, so it was better to keep it as secret as possible. With a confident look in his eyes as he watched part of Serenity break off from the main group, Gene raised his hand and yelled out: "Pull back!"

Yes, he only wanted to split them. He wanted to separate a huge chunk of Serenity's forces so that his plans would be able to execute quicker. Each one of the people in his guild were all people who would fight. They all have played with him for a long time now and know how he likes to handle things. These past two weeks, Gene had people asking around about Serenity's movements. This was how he found out about the sky king's lair and the fact that not all of Serenity's players were combatants. His odds of beating Serenity and Ryu into the ground had gone from 0% to almost 70%.

On The Queen's Throne side Beauty's expression was not good. "What do you mean they were captured and killed?"

"Miss, I have no idea what happened to the people we sent out. Instead of going to the designated locations, they charged right into Serenity and were caught and killed." The guard replied.

"Those idiots! First, we lose our assassins, and now a bunch of idiots do not know how to follow orders! When this is all over, I want every one of these idiots to be trained until they are dead! We can not rise up as a guild if people do listen." Biting her fingernail, Beauty was trying to come up with another plan, but when she saw the fight break out between Serenity and Golden Sword, her lips curled up into a smile. "It seems we can still fish in dirty waters. As soon as a good portion of their forces wears themselves out, we will encircle and attack!"

"I will see to this myself, Miss. I will not fail."The guard could only hope that his words would not be his last words.

"Don't go in unless you are one hundred percent sure. If you think we can't win, just back off. I rather not make my guild a laughing stock." Beauty would rather retreat than fight a losing battle and make her guild seem weak.

Back on Ryu's side, Ryu was up in a tree watching things from up above. He could see all the movements between the two teams. Next to him was Rose, who was pouting because she lost rock, paper, scissors and was not able to fight with the rest as she had to serve as a backup just in case. "Hmm? It looks like the Golden Scumbags are up to something. Chi, watch your left your we got some scouts or something. I have no idea what they are doing but be careful."

"Got it!" Chi gave a short answer since she was busy buffing everyone who was fighting.

"Ryu, should I go take care of them?" Rose asked.

"Nah, let them play around. I am interested in what they have up their sleeve. " Ryu just wondered what they were doing. They were rummaging around on the ground in certain places.

Sadly Ryu would soon get his answer as a red barrier formed out of nowhere encircled Chi and about thirty other players. Seeing the large red barrier, Ryu stood up on the branch and yelled out: "What the hell is that!? A barrier!? This game has barriers!?"

"I don't know either, but it seems to have trapped them inside. Did they figure out that Chi was very strong as well?" Rose asked.

"I have no idea, but this is really starting to get interesting. If they keep pulling tricks like this we may lose this fight!"
