Chapter 389: Betrayal
Translator: Mercurial_ Editor: DarkGem
After that, the situation spiraled out of control .
There were twenty-three members in Maple Wood Alliance . Among them, Li Yunmu, Wang Yan, Luo Honghua, Zheng Quan, and Zhang Yuan didn't attack . The others however didn't hesitate in raising the butcher's knife and throwing all the boatmen into the ocean right away .
Although they didn't kill the boatmen directly, North Blue was different from oceans of the Earth . Ordinary people thrown into water far from the coast were just like food being thrown into a fish tank .
In a short while, there were countless twisting and coiling creatures in the vicinity of the cruise ship . The sharp-toothed vicious fish gathered together and tore apart the boatmen .
In the blink of an eye, the ocean water was covered by a layer of blood .
By then, it was clear to Li Yunmu that the lives of slaves and ordinary people were completely worthless in the eyes of flux experts . Even if they received the protection of an administrative region, no one would care about their deaths once anything was done out of sight .
It wasn't like the officials didn't have any other jobs to waste time on carrying out an investigation for a dead person .
After getting rid of the boatmen, the group of people immediately unloaded the small boats and began to move toward the island which was less than one nautical mile away .
Although the unloaded ships were called small boats, they were still more than ten meters long . They were also created from the iron pistil wood, so they naturally wouldn't be destroyed by the attacks of vicious beasts .
On top of that, since every person in the group was a flux experts, the vicious beasts with limited horizons who jumped at the ships would suffer from the attacks of the cultivators riding them .
In that manner, more than ten vicious beasts died . Once so many bodies littered the water, others finally stopped attacking the 'small boats' .
In the meantime, everyone was quickly urging their small boats forward .
Thump!
The sound of a bubble bursting echoed, and the small boats entered the purple mist which was enveloping the island .
When everyone looked around, they discovered that the world around them had changed . Behind them, North Blue as well as the enormous cruise ship had disappeared . There was only the purple mist all around them .
"My god, this is truly a dimensional space which hasn't yet been discovered . " Zhang Yuan sat with a stupefied expression, mumbling to himself as if he was in a dream .
In the end, under the signal from Zheng Quan, Luo Honghua asked, "Brother Zhang, what's this dimensional space you've mentioned so many times?"
"What? You people don't know what a dimensional space is?" Liu Yangwei, another expert persuaded by Zhang Yuan, asked with an odd tone .
When Li Yunmy saw him looking at Luo Honghua like a martian, he smiled faintly . That was the difference between the descenders and the natives of the Origin World . Sometimes, there was some basic knowledge which the descenders didn't know about .
"En, I really don't know," Luo Honghua replied while putting on a brave face .
With the situation having deteriorated before, both Zheng Quan and Luo Honghua harboured killing intent toward the members who had been pulled in by Zhang Yuan .
Thus, it didn't matter to them even if the other party thought that they were somewhat odd . It was just that right then wasn't the best time to start attacking .
"Wow, I truly hadn't expected that there would be some nobles who wouldn't have heard of dimensional spaces," Zhang Yuan said disdainfully .
By then, he was certain that Zheng Quan's group were nobles who were far from the Central Continent . They didn't possess any power and had completely regressed, similar to the nobles of countryside on Earth .
But he didn't once consider that they might be people from another world .
"I've once heard from the elders that there are countless dimensional spaces in our world, constantly changing in all aspects . The dimensional space here clearly hadn't been discovered and so its resources hadn't been exploited . Ha ha ha, this trip truly wasn't in vain, the heavens are helping me . "
Zhang Yuan and the experts who he had roped in, Lei Jun and Liu Yangwei, burst out laughing .
In their opinion, the situation had been settled long ago . Since the three of them who were the most powerful had joined hands, the right of leadership belonged to them . Thus they naturally wouldn't bother to cover it up .
All the humans in the Origin World were like that . Once they obtained absolute strength, they would abandon all false pretenses of friendship and kick the other party down .
"Zheng Quan, perhaps you don't know, but we want to make something clear . Although you people haven't heard of dimensional spaces, you only need to know it means a lot of benefits and resources .
"This being said, we now propose a cooperation . We eight people will collect 70% of the resources while the remaining 30% will go to you . "
Zhang Yuan finally revealed his fangs . In one line, he demanded for 70% of the resources in the dimensional space .
When the other members of Maple Wood Alliance saw the group of eight who had rebelled for the first time, their complexions turned unsightly .
Apart from Zhang Yuan, Lei Jun, and Liu Wangyei, the other people were also pretty strong; all of them occupied rooms among the first seventy .
Although Zheng Quan's side was greater in number and had fifteen people, it didn't mean much . Apart from the comparatively honest Lu Zhong who occupied the thirty-seventh room and was somewhat powerful, only the descenders occupied rooms within the first sixty . The remaining members were all outside the first hundred or had barely started cultivating .
With both sides clearly standing on the opposite, their strengths and weaknesses were quite clear .
Not to mention Zhang Yuan, who had the strength to occupy one of the first ten rooms, Lu Zhong wasn't even a rival for the combined strength of Lei Jun and Liu Yangwei .
On top of that, the five members who formed the core strength of Maple Wood Alliance had also been pulled to the other side .
"Why are all of you doing this? I would like to ask when I, Luo Honghua, have treated you badly? Why are you betraying Maple Wood Alliance," Luo Honghua asked the people standing behind Zhang Yuan .
Her words were the nonsense of an inexperienced sore loser .
"A fine bird chooses for itself in which tree to nest!" 1
"I am sorry Luo Honghua, but circumstances are more powerful than people, and we want to survive," one person on Zhang Yuan's side said with a hint of shame . The others also slightly lowered their heads .
Zhang Yuan patted the speaker's shoulder and said in consolation, "It doesn't matter . Your actions were indeed correct . I am convinced that anyone would choose the same as you when faced with such a situation . The small benefits offered by Zheng Quan and his lot aren't good enough to put your lives in danger . "
