?47: Chapter 47 Selling Oneself 47: Chapter 47 Selling Oneself “If you can’t afford it, you still have to pay.

Don’t think you can just walk away from your debts.

It’s your responsibility, and you’re going to bear it.

I’m telling you!

If you exit the game, we’ll chase you down to your doorstep in reality!”

Zhao Han wished she could strangle these two.

She belonged to the Tenth Legion, Group Twelve of the Dawn Guild, with a total of fifteen thousand players in her group, three thousand of whom were elite fighters.

Over five hundred had been lost in one fell swoop, and she had no idea how to explain this to the Legion Leader.

“Big sister, this guy seems to be from the Wuji Guild.

He has the Wuji Guild’s insignia on him.”

A woman with sharp eyes pointed out nearby.

“Even better, let the Wuji Guild pay!”

Zhao Han said viciously.

“Please spare me, though I am from the Wuji Guild.

I’m just a squad leader; they definitely won’t pay so much money for me.”

Sun Duoxiang replied with tears and snot running down his face.

“I don’t care, it’s your hot potato, and neither of you is getting away.”

Zhao Han was completely unmoved.

Sun Duoxiang kept whining relentlessly, his eyes begging Su Mo for help.

If you don’t speak up, brother, we’re done for.

Meanwhile, Su Mo’s expression was calm, as if he was thinking about something and didn’t even see Sun Duoxiang’s pleading eyes.

Sun Duoxiang’s expression went through a series of changes, and in the end, he had to steel his heart, bite the bullet and thought, “Sorry, big brother, I can only save myself.”

Then Sun Duoxiang shouted innocently.

“It’s unjust!

I’m really wronged.

This has nothing to do with me; I’m a victim too!”

“You think I’d believe you?”

“I’m really innocent.

I wasn’t the one driving the tank.

I just caught a ride with them.

You should be looking for him!”

Sun Duoxiang decisively chose to abandon the car to protect his commander, selling out Su Mo.

What a joke, these people are so tough, they can definitely make it to the Wuji Guild.

Once they do, I’ll definitely be kicked out, and then, if they come after me in reality, I’m done for.

I can only apologize to big brother!

“Bullshit, you were together, you think I would believe that?

Do you take me for a three-year-old child?”

Zhao Han didn’t believe a word.

“I’m not lying to you, I’m from the Wuji Guild, but he’s not.

He’s an Independent Traveler.

I caught a ride during my escape, and he was driving the tank the entire time.

I’m really wronged.”

Sun Duoxiang said, appearing genuine.

At this point, Su Mo, who had remained silent, raised his head to look at Zhao Han and others and said, “The tank was indeed driven by me, and he has nothing to do with it.

Each person should be responsible for their own actions.”

Sun Duoxiang looked at Su Mo with tears streaming down his face, deeply moved.

Zhao Han paused too, turning her gaze to Su Mo.

“Do you understand what you’re saying?”

“I’m fully aware.

Indeed, this was an accident.

We were being chased by a Monster, and we had no choice but to run.

In our escape, we didn’t have time to watch where we were going and ended up here.”

Su Mo provided a rough explanation.

“You’re quite responsible, can you afford to compensate?”

Su Mo’s expression was serene, and he thought that it wasn’t a big deal.

After all, it was him who had wronged them, and although it was unintentional, the least he could do was to compensate them.

Just as Su Mo was about to speak, Sun Duoxiang, who had noticed Su Mo’s expression, immediately guessed that Su Mo was about to compensate the others.

Suddenly thinking of something, he nudged Su Mo with his elbow as a sign not to do it.

This was no small sum of money, and if he impulsively offered to pay and then couldn’t, it would be a disaster.

They really would be chased down to their doorstep.

Su Mo was also slightly taken aback and displayed a slightly strange expression.

He thought that Sun Duoxiang might be signaling him not to be too showy, so he changed his words and said.

“I can’t afford it.”

“Take him out and butcher him!”

Zhao Han couldn’t contain her rage and let out a sardonic laugh.

“Can I say something?

Actually, this big brother is pretty awesome.

He’s slick with a tank and definitely skilled.

Killing him like this would be such a waste.”

Sun Duoxiang felt somewhat remorseful and spoke up for Su Mo.

“Had you not spoken up, I’d have forgotten.

Take this guy and bury him alive too.”

Zhao Han snorted coldly.

“Spare me, I’ve already said, I’m innocent!

Why is this happening to me?”

Sun Duoxiang despaired as he spoke.

“Big sis, don’t be rash; killing them won’t help fix anything.

Why not just have them work to pay off their debts?”

Lin Zinuo quickly interjected, trying to make a suggestion to Zhao Han.

Zhao Han was so angry her face turned green, but it seemed there really was no better option.

Such a huge loss wasn’t something anyone could compensate for easily, but after all, these two guys should have some skills.

“I’m giving you two a chance now.

Join the Dawn Guild, work off the losses, or bear the consequences.”

“That’s no problem, but I have a contract with the Wuji Guild, and leaving requires a hefty compensation fee.

Can you help me pay?

I can’t afford it.”

Sun Duoxiang quickly agreed, knowing Su Mo well.

This big brother’s way of thinking was different from normal people; he definitely wouldn’t join the Dawn Guild and would surely refuse, which would anger the other party and spell doom.

“Then you’re of no use, drag him out and finish him off.”

Zhao Han, annoyed, issued the command.

Under normal circumstances, recruiting someone from another guild involved paying a penalty, but this man couldn’t even pay for his own damages, let alone expect them to pay; it was a total loss.

“Please, spare my life!!!”

Sun Duoxiang was also in despair.

“I’ll agree to your terms, but I have a condition: let him go.”

Su Mo suddenly spoke up in response.

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Sun Duoxiang was completely stunned.

This guy actually agreed?

That was totally out of character!

In normal circumstances, Su Mo indeed wouldn’t have agreed, nor would he have deigned to join.

It’s just that after hearing Sun Duoxiang’s warning, he suddenly found it very reasonable, and this opportunity was perfect.

“Fine, release him.”

After some thought, Zhao Han decided to let Sun Duoxiang go.

Considering the current situation, since one was an independent traveler and the other was from a guild, it was indeed possible he got involved by accident.

The Wuji Guild was backed by the Martial God Guild, and killing their people wouldn’t look good.

Moreover, this guy was such a coward, she definitely didn’t want to pay another dime to recruit him.

It was better to just let him go.

Debts have owners and grievances have sources; she’ll put everything on Su Mo’s tab.

“Can I leave now?”

Sun Duoxiang asked, somewhat surprised.

“Or do you not want to leave?

You’re asking to die?”

“No, I’m going right now!”

Sun Duoxiang didn’t utter another word, turned, and took off running faster than a rabbit, fearing the women might change their minds and spell his doom.

Circling around Su Mo, Zhao Han’s extreme anger began to cool, and her thoughts became more rational.

Her reason for recruiting Su Mo was multifold.

First and foremost, the ordeal had happened; killing him wouldn’t recoup their losses, making it meaningless.

On the other hand, this man named Su Mo, capable of escaping to this point right under the nose of a type II monster, must be quite impressive with a tank.

In any case, he met the recruitment standards of their elite group, bringing him in might recover some of their losses.

Of course, these weren’t the most crucial considerations.

The most important factor was the many deaths: if the Legion Leader blamed her later, at least there would be someone to throw under the bus as a shield.

Otherwise, she’d just be pitifully accepting punishment.

Su Mo felt uncomfortable under Zhao Han’s scrutinizing gaze and broke the silence.
