Chapter 297 Attacked?
Almost all eyes were now upon Xu Feng after Jessica shouted and gazed in his direction.
Being in the spotlight, Xu Feng was instantly recognized by clever folks who had discerned his attire.
"Wait a minute, isn't that player Lin Feng?"
No one knew who shouted it, but once it did, the crowd went into a frenzy.
Although no one had truly seen his appearance, they recognized his attire, especially with the mask covering his face.
Not to mention, NPCs were way more perceptive than players, and they clearly heard the receptionist Jessica shout the word Feng.
Thus, they can't be mistaken.
Meanwhile, Xu Feng could only smile bitterly and thanked himself silently for putting up a mask. Otherwise, once his face was revealed, trouble would follow him everywhere. At least, he didn't want to get pestered when trying to maneuver.
At this moment, quite a lot of people were gathering around him.
"Mister Lin Feng, can you please lower the requirement to join the guild. Those from the Reaver Guild either logged out or are going into hiding. It's too difficult to find them."
"Yeah, we can't get any kills if the opponent doesn't show up."
"Sorry, but that's not my decision to make." Xu Feng raised his hand, silencing the crowd as he made his remark. "This decision was made by my boss who deemed the actions of the Reaver Guild to be offensive."
"Wait, so you're not the guild leader of the Vanguard Guild?" Someone among the crowd inquired.
"Yes and no." Xu Feng lightly replied. "I'm an acting elder, but the guild leader is my boss. However, I can understand everyone's plight, so I will inform my boss regarding this and see if the boss will make any arrangements."
"Then we must thank Lin Feng for the message." The players started bowing slightly in respect to him.

However, right at this particular moment, one player in the crowd started drawing their weapon.
"Lin Feng, go to hell!" They shouted and rushed toward Xu Feng in the blink of an eye.
Just when the ambusher thought they got Xu Feng, they realized they were bound in the air, unable to move.
"What the—" Confused, the ambusher glanced at Xu Feng in disbelief, having believed it was his doing.
Meanwhile, Xu Feng was not a bit surprised and turned to the ambusher.
The ambusher was clearly an Assassin who managed to conceal their killing intent rather well.
"I suppose you must be a member of the Reaver Guild." Xu Feng mused. The opponent might not have a guild emblem equipped to their clothes, but he was overly familiar with their style.
As soon as Xu Feng finished his words, the crowd gasped in shock and disbelief.
"The Reaver Guild is truly gutsy!"
"They actually tried to ambush Lin Feng in the Adventure Association."
"Heh, I'm screenshotting this incident and posting it in the forum."
Seeing how the Assassin was frozen in the air, the crowd began chattering and laughing at its pathetic sight.
"LIN FENG! I dare you to release me right now and have a fair fight with me." Feeling extremely ashamed, the assassin roared angrily, hoping to challenge Xu Feng outright.
"What a clown." Xu Feng chuckled softly. "First, you ambushed me and now you want to request a fair fight? You people from the Reaver Guild are really the bane of players in the Divine World."
With that said, he promptly turned around and began walking away, ignoring the assassin.
"Lin Feng, you goddamn coward who could only use cheap tricks. Release me right now and see if I'll assassinate you immediately."
The assassin himself knew his plan had failed miserably and was just rambling nonsense.
However, one thing he failed to notice was that Xu Feng never made a move to begin with.
This was the Adventure Association and with his current status, only an idiot like this particular assassin would dare to attack him.
"How dare an insignificant ant break the rules of the Association." Jessica, who had been placed in a rather difficult place by the commotion made by these players, emerged from her desk.
She exuded a frightening aura, causing the temperature to drop and pressuring the surrounding players.
As she took each step, her eyes were glaring at the assassin. "I know you new adventurers are immortal and cannot be killed, but that doesn't mean you can act unruly in the association."
Once Jessica finished her statement, she waved her hand, sending a tremendous shockwave at the assassin, killing him on the spot.
Its lifeless body collapsed to the ground, and Jessica clapped her hand, forming a transportation circle and sending the body away.
Without much explanation needed, the destination she teleported the lifeless body away was none other than the Star Falls City Prison Cell. However, no one knew how long that unfortunate assassin would be detained.
After all, they don't even dare to think properly once Jessica starts wandering her gaze around them.
For each player she gazed at, they trembled in response and bowed respectfully. None of them had any courage they held earlier from their previous complaining and somewhat demanding of her to give them some missions to do.
Only now did they realize this receptionist was a monster in disguise.
"The troublemaker is gone now, so there's no need to scare the rest." At this moment, Xu Feng finally opened his mouth and spoke up.
Meanwhile, the crowd became immensely grateful for Xu Feng's words because once he finished his statement, Jessica's aura retracted.
Soon, the atmosphere within the association returned to normal, and the players were finally able to breathe in a relaxed manner.
"Hmph, I just wanted to send a severe warning to those who dared to make a move in the association." Jessica clasped her hands and sneered coldly, her eyes darting at the crowd.
"Feng is a valuable person for the Adventure Association, so I hope that no one will dare to harm him. Otherwise, you are free to receive the same treatment as that insignificant ant."
