Doomsday Code

Chapter 550: Cleaning Out the Criminals Hiding in the Guild

Chen Cheng chuckled and said:

"Don't we still have His Highness? They wouldn't have the guts to do anything to me."

Huidun rolled his eyes at him and said:

"I'm not the king yet. Even if I were, a big organization like the Guild could ignore me if they wanted to."

Huidun's words were a bit vulgar, but the truth was there.

"Okay, I'm fine now, so let's pack up, brothers."

However, Huidun sneered and said:

"It's not that easy. We've already brought the troops out. If we don't put a stop to the arrogance of these lawless criminals today, they'll really think the kingdom is afraid of them."

Then Huidun gave a look to the city guard general beside him.

The general stepped forward and began to organize the troops, and then the city guards marched into the guild's private land in a mighty manner.

If it were in the past, these adventurers would be so excited that the city guards would not be able to get in.

But today is different. The prince is leading the team himself, and the reason for doing so is to vent his anger at the dojo.

Some adventurers who had received favors from the dojo no longer felt angry and even held a welcoming attitude.

After all, the bigger the background of the dojo, the longer it can stand, and they will have more time and opportunities to come to the dojo to improve their strength.

When the city guards came in, the ones who were most anxious were not these scattered adventurer groups, but the official adventurers registered with the guild.

They are called adventurers, and adventurers are often associated with crimes.

Especially adventurers like them who have guild backing, they act recklessly in some missions.

In the past, as long as they hid in the guild, the kingdom's law enforcers would be unable to do anything to them.

Now that the army has arrived, if they are to be reckoned with later, they will be in dire straits.

At this time, Hills, as the guild president, naturally had to stand up.

"Your Highness."

Hills, looking tired, stopped the team and saluted Huidun at the back of the team.

"What? Master, are you trying to stop me? Is this place still under the Kingdom's rule?

Could it be that this place has become a kingdom within your guild?"

The rulers of the world today are still the royal families of various countries, and they are all united under the name of the Empire of Thorns.

Therefore, even if they are the three major forces, they dare not openly offend the royal families of various countries.

Take the Academy Alliance for example, they actually exist by relying on the royal families of various countries.

There are also guilds. Although there is an adventurer system, in the final analysis, the vast majority of adventurers are still loyal to their own country.

Only the church, relying on theological beliefs and churches, is independent of the royal families of various countries.

Only the church dared to really get deeply involved in the power struggles among various countries, so much so that it came up with the idea of establishing a papal kingdom.

So it was difficult for Hills to respond to Huidun's words.

Hills saluted and said:

"This place is naturally under the rule of the Kingdom of Moss, but His Highness has come with a massive army, and the people living here are all His Highness's subjects. The army's momentum is far too ferocious."

Apart from his dealings with Aunt Mei, Hills is actually a very qualified guild president in other matters.

He said this in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, and at the same time reduced the murderous intent in Huidun's previous words, and then used the kindness that rulers care about to persuade Huidun.

But Huidun is not someone who can be easily fooled. He had already seen the character of these adventurers in Huidun City.

Because of the flow of merchants, many adventurers were also brought to Huidun City, especially after the disaster beast tide, the opening of Huoyuan Ridge.

Many of these foreign adventurers are lawless.

After that, Governor Tophis spent a lot of time cooperating with the Adventurer's Guild of Huidun City and arrested many of these criminal adventurers.

"Really? Your Highness believes that what you said is right, but sometimes, a single bad apple spoils the whole barrel.

Among these people, there are some who have committed crimes. Do you think they are good subjects of your Highness?"

Hills was naturally aware of the varying moral standards of adventurers, but this required the entire guild to start rectifying it. Otherwise, it would be useless if he just made the rectification alone.

So it was difficult for him to refute Huidun's words.

After all, Huidun divided the camps when he spoke. Most of them were good, but there were a few who were bad, and he came here to catch those bad ones.

Unfortunately, most of these bad guys are adventurers created by their guild.

After all, other free adventurers have no one to rely on, so if they want to survive, they still have to care about their reputation.

After all, with such a bad reputation, other adventurer teams would never team up with them when they want to cooperate. Even if they accept some good missions, the employer may doubt the team's morality and refuse to provide mission information.

But the adventurers in the series are different. They have the support of the guild, and the guild does not care about the character of the adventurer, but the completion of the adventurer's mission.

Therefore, many adventurers in the series are synonymous with lawlessness.

This is also why Aunt Mei hates the guild and constantly warns Chen Cheng not to trust people in the guild.

There are very few teams like Moni's that can maintain their original intentions, and this is because Moni's team relies on Hills as a backer.

Otherwise, Moni and the others might become like others for the sake of resources.

Seeing that Hills had nothing to say, Huidun smiled and said:

"President, please get out of the way, or I'll charge you with obstructing public service."

And those adventurers in the guild kept shouting in their hearts, asking him to hold on.

As long as he holds on, they believe that Huidun won't dare to do anything to their guild.

In the end, however, Hills relented.

This is not because he is weak, but because he is also a qualified guild leader, so he also hates those who will do anything to complete the task, and they often make mistakes and hide in the guild, and the stigma will fall on the guild.

He also values his reputation, otherwise he would not have lost his composure because of Aunt Mei's affairs, nor would he have sent a team with a good reputation like Moni to serve as president of local branches.

Although he cannot change it, he also wants to influence some people through Moni and others.

Today, Huidun has brought his troops here, so he can naturally stand firm for the sake of the guild's so-called face, and Huidun is likely to retreat on his own in the end.

But so what.

Besides, Huidun has already said that he came here not to deal with the guild, but to deal with those criminals.

Hills also believed that Huidun would not be stupid enough to actually deal with the guild.

Moreover, when the empire was still there, the guild was not a place where filth and corruption could be harbored.

But no one knows when it started, but the guild became a den of filth and a safe haven for those who commit crimes.
