MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

326  Twisted Game

The six guild masters gritted their teeth and clashed against the six clones. With their overwhelming strength and speed, the entire throne room was trashed in an instant.

"Hahahaha!" King Moriarty kept laughing.

With a single-sheathed sword, Alistair cut his opponent into tiny, bloody pieces. The clone died.

"You traitor!" Alistair shouted and jumped at the creature. "You made my daughter cry. You'll die."

"Alistair, I always hated you." King Moriarty retrieved his own sword from the inventory and clashed blades with Alistair.

"The feeling is mutual!" Alistair shouted.

CLANG, CLANG, CLANG!

With just a couple of seconds, they clashed blades hundreds of times. They moved so fast that it was impossible to keep track of their movements.

"Sea of Dead Clones!" King Moriarty put his hand against Alistair's face, and from the palm of his hand, thousands of clones shot out.

However, all those clones were dead. They were clones that had once died.

Along with them, one of the clones looked strangely similar to Ryan from Eldertree Institute.

Those dead clones all fell over Alistair and drowned him in a sea of lifeless bodies.

At that moment, all of the dead clones got cut into tiny cubes. Through the cut corpses, Alistair jumped through with his blade drenched in blood.

"Hahahaha!" King Moriarty roared in laughter, dirty saliva flying out of his mouth.

It seemed like he had completely lost sense of his humanity!

Previous Moriarty was prince-like, who acted with grace. His skills and techniques were all graceful, and something that a proper King should possess.

Now, like a monster, his techniques and skills were all ugly, bloody, and something that monster would use.

'This is not Moriarty that I know.' Alistair thought. 'He has truly fallen. Shame. I used to actually respect him!'

At that moment, the rest of his clones died to other guild masters. They all immediately lunged towards him and sent their attacks hurling at him.

"Wall of Dead Compatriots." King Moriarty raised his hand, and a wall made of dead corpses appeared at the path of those attacks. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The corpses got destroyed, but managed to block the attacks.

"What a monster," Athena said.

"I don't see any ounce of humanity left in him." Zephyr said. "His mind has gone over the edge. I wonder if this has affected his real-life self as well."

"Doesn't matter!" Ambrose shouted. "Let's just kill this fucker and be done with it!"

"I am getting too old for this." Orion rubbed his back.

"Do you guys want to see a sneak peek at what this world will become?" King Moriarty asked with a grin. "Look outside the window!"

The guild masters frowned and carefully made their way over to the window, then looked out towards the town below.

A shocking sight opened to them.

There were cages. Hundreds of them. Inside, mercenaries were being held prisoner, stripped of their weapons, armor, and clothes.

"What…" Athena looked over to the disgusting creature. "They're all members of the Imperial Order. What are you actually doing?"

"The warlords need food!" King Moriarty shouted. "I will feed them."

"You're sending your own men and women to their deaths?!" Ambrose shouted.

"Hahahaha!" King Moriarty laughed raspily. "So what? Why does it matter? That is awaiting all of your subordinates as well!"

"What then?" Alistair asked. "You're getting rid of all mercenaries. Then what?"

"The new world order!" Moriarty declared with a twisted smile. "Warlords, and their armies will force the Originals to their knees. The gods beyond the heavenly gate can't do anything either.

"Y'see, they're weakened when they walk down the mortal land. Here, they will be even weaker than the warlords. Nothing can stop us!"

"…" Alistair remained silent, but he opened a messaging app and sent a message to someone.

"What're you doing, Alistair?" Bartholomew asked.

"Plan B." Alistair said coldly. "If we fail here, someone must stop this madman."

…

"Everyone, Adam is now the new guild master!" Digby shouted at the members of the Crimson Hounds, who've gathered in the same room.

The looks were shocked at first, but then everyone started clapping. They all could sense Adam's power that seemed almost endless.

He was the greatest choice for the new guild master, so everyone was very happy to have a new guild master that was as strong as him.

Valora clapped with a slight sad smile. It made him sad that it was the end of an era. It meant that Digby was almost ready to retire.

'Guild master, him?' Amelia clapped with a surprised look. 'Does that mean he has already become stronger than Digby? He will definitely become a great man in future.'

It also made the gears in her head turn wildly. She was trying to find ways of becoming Adam's woman so she could also profit from his future success.

'What to do. He is being pretty hard to get, but I know I'll find a way eventually.'

Amelia's eyes narrowed as she formulated her next plan of action.

Ding, ding.

'A message?' Adam thanked everyone who'd gathered in the room and then moved to the corner of the room before checking out the message.

The message shocked him.

[Alistair Fairchild: You must kill Konrad Moriarty. He is living in Chastity Land, Gold Road Street 34. He mustn't be allowed to continue existing]

'He wants me to kill someone? Is he nuts?' Adam frowned.

He had killed people before, but it shocked him that Alistair thought that he was ready to kill someone over a game.

While Mortal Online was just a game, it was something that people would kill over for. After all, there was a lot of money involved, and greed was a dangerous motive.

'Attacking Moriarty in the real world is almost suicide. His home is one of the most fortified places in the world. How could he possibly think that I can do that?'

Ding, ding!

Another message suddenly appeared.

[Alistair Fairchild: I know you were attacked in your home not too long ago. Those men were hired by Moriarty. I also know that you killed them, so I know you have skills to do what needs to be done!]

'I see, that's how…' Adam gritted his teeth. 'So, Moriarty had been trying to kill me many times. That fucker. Alright then, I'll fucking play their twisted game!'
