Chapter 27: Gathering of everyone: Aramis rampages
Vato went to his wife Yolimar, who was lying on the ground unconsciously, and squatted down, stroking her hair softly. Sensing the mid-aura of power and uneasiness that had suddenly appeared, he turned his head slightly and looked at the approaching silhouette.
He and all the other players in the square…
"You really did an incredible job here, Vato! Now it's time to take what's ours and leave." Although he wanted to manage this business with a bloodless operation, it was obvious from the face of King Aramis that he was not dissatisfied with the latest situation. There were countless corpses in the pool of blood in the middle of the square, but all of the corpses belonged to the unruly players of the server, and he already knew this from the messages posted on the WC by the system in the last few minutes. He examined the corpses one last time in detail, and then turned his head to Miha. "It is ok, Miha. Let's go…"
"No, I won't!" Although the last sentence of King Aramis had a soft tone, it was screaming to Miha that she had to stay there and become a member of the GBR alliance, which she had experienced and seen since she came to this world.
"Believe me, Miha, what you see is a grain of sand in the desert compared to what you don't know. So stop resisting and come with us so that no more people get hurt!"
"You heard her!" Karmalita, Cave, and the other GBR players still alive took a few steps and built a wall of flesh in front of Miha. Even the other 5 vulnerable new players who have just arrived in this world with Miha…
A mocking smile appeared on King Aramis's face as he saw the members of the GBR alliance menacingly raise their arms. "Huh, will you be the troops to stop me?"
"We have to put an end to this now, King Aramis…" In a surprising development, Vato and the small BRE unit next to him sided with the GBR players.
"What do you think you are doing?" Standing with his deputy, Ahmed, at his side, King Aramis looked at Vato, displeased with this latest development. "Are you trying to start a rebellion!?"
"No…"
"So you think you can stop me?"
"No… But I made a promise to them a long time ago… You have always helped me so far and I am very grateful for that. But I owe them a debt that I promised so I can't just watch it anymore…" He turned his head to look at his troop mates who had chosen to continue helping him. "Thank you all but don't get involved in this! Go to our alliance and our King now. To where you belong… There is only death at the end of this battle!"
Contrary to expectations, King Aramis did not become angry, on the contrary, a satisfied smile appeared on his face. "I really like this last intervention to protect them, Vato. Don't worry, I'm going to assume this little revolt of yours never happened. They won't be harmed, and I'll just neutralize you. You all still belong to me… You all are alone in this…"
"NO, THEY ARE NOT!" Suddenly, a new male voice resounded in the Shrine square. "Are you ok, Ruby?" The owner of the voice was none other than Darkheat, the leader of the XJX Alliance, of which Ruby was a member in the phone game. He and a large group of his alliance had arrived at the GBR Shrine square fully equipped.
"GUYS!" Ruby's happiness at seeing them was evident in every way.
"Still weak…" Aware of his own power, Aramis only gave them a disdainful glance.
"DO NOT BE SURE ABOUT THAT, ARAMIS!" This time, another crowded group appeared at the other end of the square. "WE HAVE NO INTENTION OF LEAVING WITHOUT GETTING OUR FRIEND, PAPA UNHARMED OUT OF HERE!!!" The WAR alliance led by Juutchi also entered the square.
"WE ARE HERE ON BEHALF OF OUR OWN LEADER ELIZABETH, ARAMIS! SHE WANTED US TO TELL YOU TO STOP THIS MADNESS!" The two people approaching from the east corner of the square were members of the ONI alliance, KB and Luckysmile.
"COUNT US IN TOO, GUYS!!!" And finally, another large group entered the square, led by Mexi, the R4 staff of the RES alliance. "WE WILL NOT SACRIFICE OUR FRIEND TO THESE BLOODY MURDERERS' ACTS!!!"
.

"GRR….ENOUGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" The sudden emotional outburst from an unexpected person had taken everyone in the field by surprise. It was Ahmed of BRe who uttered this cry of anger, and even his own leader, King Aramis, looked at him in surprise. "YOU ALWAYS CALLED US MURDERERS, CRIMINALS, VILLAINS!!! OF COURSE OUT OF THE SERVER WAR TIMES! WHEN THOSE TIMES CAME, YOU ALL BEGGED US TO SAVE ALL OF YOU AND WE ALL SACRIFICED OURSELVES TO MINIMIZE CAUSALITIES! AND YOU STILL DO NOT RESPECT OF US!!! DO YOU THINK THIS IS EASY FOR US!!!? DO YOU KNOW WHAT WE WENT THROUGH ALL THESE TIMES!!! DO YOU KNOW HOW HE CHO…" But his outburst was interrupted by its leader, King Aramis.
"Enough, Ahmed!"
Actually, Ahmed was not technically wrong because the system in this world had set the most brutal conditions for Server Wars. So much so that all the players of the server that lost points as a result of these server wars, which were held once a month, were destroyed by the system. Basically, hundreds of humans were being killed in just 1 second. And in the wars that have been fought since the day they came to this world, they really managed to win thanks to the few red-eyed players of BRe and to ensure the survival of the players who are still not dead.
.
Dissatisfied with Ahmed's latest drama, King Aramis quickly dismissed the issue. "Yes, you are really crowded now... So, you think you can beat me under these conditions?" King Aramis made it clear that he did not intend to back down, taking his hand towards his sword, and started walking again. It was certain that the upcoming battle would be bloody for both sides, but Aramis's power was still enough to destroy everyone in the square.
However, there was a stasis as if time stood still when a loud dragon cry was suddenly heard and the person on the back of the dragon, which was naively placed in the middle of the square, was seen by everyone…
"So… You came at least…" A soulless expression appeared on the face of King Aramis, who had foreseen that this last development would happen.No one could tell whether he was happy or angry… "My friend…"
"Yes, my friend…" One of the top 3 strongest people in this world, the 2.5B powered non-alliance player Buck appeared. He got off the dragon's back, walked, and stood before King Aramis.
"You seem healthy, Buck."
"You too, friend… No, brother!" They weren't actually brothers, but their relationship, both in the real-world phone game and in their lives in this world, kept them connected at the level of brotherhood. Until the day their paths diverged, of course…
"If you remember, we made a pact not to interfere in each other's business!"
"Yes, brother. Our agreement was on the condition that you do not cause unnecessary deaths!"
"If you mean the corpses in this area, only some of them died as a result of our attack and were necessary!"
"No, I mean Scaar!"
"Ah yes. It wasn't ordered by me, and rest assured, I'm very annoyed that this has happened!" King Aramis squinted his eyes at Ahmed, showing his displeasure as he said this sentence.
With a deep sigh, Buck again quickly glanced at the dead in the area and the players around it. "We'll talk about that again later. Will you stop now?"
"Sorry, but I can not. We need her…"
"Ok, then I will be your rival!"
Both Buck and King Aramis sharply unsheathed their swords and stared at each other.
On this Shrine square, no, the battlefield that had just been filled with shouts, there was now a dead silence. Everyone was holding their breath and watching because the extent of the war that would soon take place here was unpredictable. One of the top 3 strongest players of the server and the permanent King were against each other…

All of a sudden, a translucent clock appeared above everyone's heads, except for the GBR players on the field and the new 6 players who were not yet allied, and they started counting down from 4 minutes.
"GET OUT OF MY HIVE, YOU ALL ASSAILANTS!!!"
The leader of the GBR Alliance, Haites, and his right-hand fighter Aegon had appeared on the roof of the Shrine.
