Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 1278: Global Manhunt Part 2

Illuminati Headquarters

"Natasha, this is your chance to redeem yourself from failure!" An elderly man said softly.

"Yes, Elder." Natasha nodded, her eyes firmed and determined. The humiliation she received from being forced to retreat was still vividly in her mind.

What made her feel even more aggrieved was that the spy she spent so much money on was actually useless in obtaining more critical information.

Not only did she waste her money for naught, but she was also played like a fiddle by that money-grubber spy of hers.

This kind of incident was something she had never experienced in the past!

Just when Natasha planned on making a few phone calls and messages to gather allies to target the Vanguard Guild, she suddenly received a notification.

Upon opening her message inbox, she noticed it was from Luther of the Miracle Pavilion.

’What does this loser want?’ Natasha’s brows furrowed. In their circle, they had already learned about Luther’s futile attempt to squash the Vanguard Guild’s short drama.

Luther not only failed to bring the short drama down, but he even became cannon fodder to boost the short drama’s popularity, thanks to OneManMedia’s taunting skills on live interviews.

Still, she opened the message and checked what the loser wanted.

Luther: Miss Natasha, I have a few siege weapons in hand. Do you want to purchase some of them to target and destroy the Vanguard Guild?

Attached to the message were a few screenshots of the siege weapons.

As Natasha browsed through the screenshot, her expression gradually turned solemn.

’How did he get his hands on them?’ She wondered silently. Given Luther’s current state, she was positive that these siege weapons definitely didn’t originate from him. If that were the case, then wouldn’t Luther reverse his current plight and rise in the Miracle Pavilion?

Despite knowing there was a mysterious hand in the play, Natasha must admit she was a bit interested in the siege weapons.

After all, she was also being targeted in the Illuminati by some of her damnable brothers and colleagues who wished to bring her down from power.

The competition within the Illuminati was extremely fierce.

Connection meant nothing here!

Only the capabilities mattered, regardless of what sort of means you use!

Natasha: What price do you want?

Shortly after giving a reply, Natasha was left on read for about 3 minutes.

Luther: Simple, I want you to support me in the upcoming Miracle Chamber of Commerce. I wish to regain my position and authority.

Natasha: Help you regain your position? Did you think I didn’t know that the heiress from Maleficent Limited had been offended by you?

Natasha wasn’t foolish or ignorant enough to not know the main cause of Luther’s downfall.

Just a few setbacks and failures weren’t enough to warrant him becoming isolated and ousted from the Miracle Pavilion.

Therefore, she had sent people to investigate and realized that Maleficent Limited’s heiress personally made a statement to terminate all cooperation with the Miracle Pavilion.

Although the Miracle Pavilion wasn’t some easy organization to mess with, Maleficent Limited was also not something the former could take lightly against.

Those higher-ups in the Miracle Pavilion would naturally sacrifice a mere Luther in return for the Maleficent Limited’s heiress’s forgiveness.

One was a mere slave, whereas the other was a true noble.

It wasn’t hard for them to choose who to side with and who to abandon.

While Natasha was left wondering what kind of bargaining chip Luther had up his sleeve, she soon found her answer.

Luther: A mere heiress isn’t worth a fart. The Malefic Order Guild has been displeased with the heiress as of late. She even went ahead to film some short drama for the Vanguard Guild, completely making the elders extremely satisfied.

’This is his bargaining method?’ Stunned, Natasha was starting to think Luther had been hit hard mentally.

"The heiress actually had a part in the short drama. I thought it was just rumors, but now it seems like it’s the truth." She furrowed her brows. She refused to believe someone of Evelyn’s caliber would be that foolish to sacrifice everything to get closer to the Vanguard Guild for nothing.

There definitely had to be some deeper secret she had yet to discover.

"Right, there was also the blueprint from that spy of mine. Because there hadn’t been any news recently about it, I thought it was just falsified information." Natasha’s determination began to waver.

She then recalled the numerous instances in which the Vanguard Guild had to face. Nearly all of them were resolved and ended with the Vanguard Guild’s major victory.

To theorize, maybe this global manhunt was also a trap.

"Hmm, I’ve recalled that the Vanguard Guild has a good relationship with the Silver Wind Guild and Phoenix Guild. I should initiate some contact with them first."

Ever since the setback on their failure in besieging the Haven Wind Town, Natasha’s mind had become paranoid. Without a certain percentage of success, she refused to make a move anymore.

Natasha wasn’t the only one making moves behind the scenes. Every other player was similarly debating their decisions.

...

Twilight Glades, Central Region

Xu Feng, Carmen, and the rest had finally ascended the mountains. Except for Xu Feng and Carmen, the others were exhausted.

They plopped to the ground, incapable of moving a little bit.

"What kind of mountain climbing is this?" Kailey panted heavily, her eyes gazing at her extremely low stamina.

As a Gun Knight, her stamina was already higher than that of the average player. Yet even then, her stamina was on the red!

So how was it possible that Xu Feng and Carmen could remain nonchalant?

Kailey wasn’t the only one curious about their aloof behavior. Every other Vanguard Guild member was similarly baffled by their high stamina.

Needless to say, their curiosity was left unanswered as Carmen was focused on Xu Feng.

"What are you looking at so intently?" Carmen asked.

"The many multiple messages from friendly and hostile guilds." Xu Feng smirked and forwarded the hostile guild’s message to Carmen.

"They all want me to surrender 75% of the Terrorizer Machine’s drop loot and grant them an 80% discount plus access to the Haven Wind Town."
