106: The national war portal was surrounded, Zhao Ming Huangshi was trapped

Player Main City 83.

The once prosperous Main City was now in ruins.

War permeated everywhere.

Especially the National War registration area.

The National War registration time had passed, but the area was still packed.

Countless players stood around the portal leading to the National War battlefield.

They surrounded the portal.

Fentian Guild Master Huang Shi, Main City 83’s Enforcement Team Captain Zhao Ming, and countless other players including Sun Xing, stood in the distance.

Their faces filled with anger, they stared at the players surrounding the portal.

These players were from the guilds whose members had died in the auction house backyard, those who were killed while participating in the Sword Trial Hero Gathering.

“Zhao Ming, as the Enforcement Team Captain, you actually harbored someone and let the murderer of our Guild Leader escape. You must give us an explanation for this matter.”

Zuo Wei looked at Enforcement Team Captain Zhao Ming, his expression unfriendly.

“Yes, you must give us an explanation!”

Behind Zuo Wei, the players who had surrounded the portal shouted in unison.

“The National War is about to begin. Can’t everything wait until after the National War is over?”

Zhao Ming’s face was also filled with anger.

He knew exactly what these people wanted to do.

They didn’t want an explanation at all; what they wanted was the forbidden holy item on Qin Tian.

The last few times they had sought out Zhao Ming, he could still calmly communicate with them.

But now the National War was about to begin.

At this critical juncture, they pulled such a stunt, directly blocking the portal to the National War battlefield, preventing the Enforcement Team members from entering the National War battlefield.

They wanted to use this method to force him to reveal Qin Tian’s whereabouts.

But the key problem was, he didn’t know where Qin Tian was either, and he really didn’t intentionally let Qin Tian leave, but rather simply didn’t have the strength to stop him.

But no matter the truth, Zuo Wei and the others had already concluded that Zhao Ming was harboring Qin Tian.

“Pah, you still have the nerve to talk about the National War. That guy killed so many people, he might even be a spy from Sakura Country.”

“Letting him into the National War battlefield, do you want him to attack our own people?”

“Hand him over quickly! We need to kill him before he enters the National War battlefield.”

Zuo Wei sneered. He couldn’t possibly let Qin Tian enter the National War battlefield.

If Qin Tian died on the National War battlefield, then those two forbidden holy items would be lost.

And if Qin Tian didn’t die, relying on his formidable strength, he would definitely attract the attention of powerful individuals and receive protection.

By the time he emerged from the National War battlefield, he would be a hero, and it would be even harder to act against him.

Neither outcome was acceptable to Zuo Wei.

So he brought people to surround the area, intending to kill Qin Tian before he entered the National War battlefield.

“Zuo Wei, you are considered a leader of one of the top three guilds in Main City 83. Is this all the magnanimity you have?”

“The National War is about to start. Sakura Country is our biggest enemy.”

“Zhao Ming is right, can’t everything wait until the National War is over?”

Fentian Guild Master Huang Shi looked at Zhao Ming.

“Hmph, don’t think I don’t know, your Fentian Guild has long been colluding with that Qin Tian.”

“Many of the pieces of equipment you’ve been selling recently were given to you by that kid, right? Many of them are relics of our guild’s high-ranking members.”

“If you return them to us now, I’ll let you pass.”

“Pah! Relics? You failed to seize treasures and got killed, and you say it so righteously. You’re truly birds of a feather! Get out of the way quickly, or we’ll make a move!”

“Get out of the way quickly!”

“Damn it, who’s afraid of whom!”

The battle erupted once more.

The group led by Zuo Wei was the first to attack.

Various skills were hurled towards Huang Shi, Zhao Ming, and the others.

Zhao Ming and Huang Shi’s side also refused to be outdone.

High-level players directly took the front, also unleashing various skills.

Light exploded, and various skills flew wildly in mid-air.

Large damage numbers appeared in dense clusters.

Players’ health bars fluctuated rapidly.

The battle had barely begun, and there were already casualties.

White light floated up, and Zhao Ming’s side, those who wanted to participate in the National War, suffered heavier casualties.

There was no other way.

The opposing side was stronger overall and had more people.

They were all members of the strongest guilds in Main City 83.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t have had the strength to allow their Guild Leaders or high-ranking leaders to spend and participate in the Sword Trial Hero Gathering.

As for Zhao Ming and his side, apart from their Enforcement Team, the only decent guild was Fentian.

The remaining guilds were generally weaker and no match for Zuo Wei’s side.

“Brothers, cut a bloody path! Focus all attacks on those blocking the portal to the National War battlefield!”

Zhao Ming made a decisive decision; if they dragged this on, all of them would die.

Now, they could only attack with full force, targeting those blocking the portal, and rush into the portal to enter the National War battlefield.

Only then could they find life in death.

At Zhao Ming’s command, the Enforcement Team members were the first to act.

They directly ignored the enemies they were currently fighting and focused all their attacks on the enemies blocking the entrance to the National War battlefield portal.

“Work with the Enforcement Team members and carve out a path!”

Huang Shi also shouted loudly upon seeing this.

The Fentian Guild members, hearing Huang Shi’s command, immediately cooperated with the Enforcement Team members and fought together.

All their firepower was directed at the players blocking the National War portal.

Large damage numbers floated up.

Several people were instantly killed.

“It’s working.”

Zhao Ming and Huang Shi’s faces lit up with joy upon seeing this.

The Fentian Guild and the Enforcement Team members all became highly motivated to fight.

Zuo Wei, seeing this scene, showed no panic on his face; instead, a strange smile appeared.

Just as Zhao Ming led his people, about to reach the portal, a sudden change occurred.

Countless Defense Warriors quickly surrounded them from all directions, completely encircling Zhao Ming and the others.

“It’s over, we fell for it!”

Zhao Ming looked at the layers of Defense Warriors surrounding them and couldn’t help but exclaim in alarm.

At this moment, he understood that those players who had been guarding the portal earlier, easily defeated by them, were just bait released by Zuo Wei.

The purpose was to lure all of them in, then surround them tightly, ensuring that not a single one could escape.

“Keep charging!”

Zhao Ming shouted, continuing to lead his people in attack.

There was no retreat in the current situation.

Only by continuing forward, eliminating the players guarding the National War portal, and rushing into the portal, could they survive.

Unfortunately, those now guarding the portal had been replaced by Zuo Wei’s strongest Defense Warriors.

Not only were they equipped with legendary gear, but Healers were also continuously healing them.

Zhao Ming and his group charged several times, but still couldn’t break through.

“Tell me Qin Tian’s whereabouts, and I will spare your lives.”

Zuo Wei’s gaze swept across the faces of Zhao Ming and the others. The situation was completely under his control.

As long as he obtained Qin Tian’s whereabouts and brought so many powerful players, he could legitimately kill Qin Tian under the guise of revenge.

“When I have those two forbidden holy items, I’ll be the absolute overlord here!”

Zuo Wei thought of the powerful equipment in Qin Tian’s hands, and a greedy expression involuntarily appeared on his face.

Zhao Ming and the others felt a sense of despair but ignored Zuo Wei.

“Stubborn fools.”

Zuo Wei knew that the threat of words was far less impactful than the shock brought by death.

He had to make an example of someone to show these people what he was capable of.

Just as he was about to kill Fentian Guild Master Huang Shi first to intimidate everyone, a sudden change occurred.

An incredibly surging energy fluctuation appeared.

A silver magic array appeared in front of the portal leading to the National War battlefield.
