Chapter 35 Seven Hostages’ Team

However, he had never expected that.

1000 gold coins meant nothing to Tom!

The number of gold coins Tom had in the game was unimaginable for everyone!

Tom was looking for the traces of the hostage players in the world channel.

Only the players in Rock County were the most special. As soon as they logged in, they became the hostage of Tom!

Tom soon found six different players, all of whom were the new leaders in Rock County.

The six players were Li, Zachary, Jacob, Lillian, Sarah, and Hunter.

In the world channel, when Tom caught them who were talking, a wicked smile appeared on his face.

"Haha! I catch you, let me test you later, my barons."

If he made good use of them, they would be good assistants.

Therefore, Tom changed his name to Michael in the world channel.

He chose a smart player, Lillian.

He sent a message to Lillian:

"Hello, Lillian. I'm Michael. I'm also from the blue planet. I just received an order to go to the Rock City."

As soon as she heard Tom, Lillian complained to him without any doubt, because she finally found a person to talk with.

"Michael, we are so miserable. We have to be held hostage as soon as the game starts."

"Although I have received the order, I won't go now. My father, Baron Taylor, hasn't given in to Count Tom yet."

The assumed name of Tom was Michael, and he pretended to be Taylor's son. The communication between them was smooth.

Lillian didn't doubt it at all. Instead, she envied him:

"Wow, your father is so valiant. I envy you so much."

Tom replied politely.

It seemed that the two of them were talking happily.

However, after chatting for a long time, Lillian always felt that Michael was a little strange.

"Michael, I haven't found any novice gift pack since I entered the game. Maybe the novice gift pack has something to do with our mission to go to the Rock City directly."

"If you don't do this task, will it affect the distribution of the gifts later?"

Lillian asked.

Tom found that Lillian was really smart. She might be doubting his identity as Michael.

Smart as she was, she didn't directly question him but probed him with another topic.

Tom was not a fool. Although he was a fake Michael, it was true that Baron Taylor was now leaning on Lord Jack.

He told Lillian something about Michael.

"Lillian, I don't know. After all, the father of my character, Baron Taylor, has already given the territory to Lord Jack."

"Lord Jack? Is Lord Jack even more powerful than Count Tom?"

Lillian learned from her character's memory that Lord Jack was very powerful, but Count Tom could completely recover the messy Rock County in a short time. It could be seen that he had a bright future.

It might not be that easy to distinguish between the two.

She was also curious about whom would win if the two fought? Was Lord Jack, who had been working for many years, or Count Tom, who was now flourishing like the green bay tree?

If this happened, Lillian vaguely hoped that Count Tom would win, because now she was going to the Rock City and be held hostage by Count Tom.

"Michael, I'd better go back to the Rock City. Good luck to you."

Lillian didn't want to talk to Michael anymore, so she ended the conversation.

Tom looked at the fake Michael, which made Lillian vigilant.

"Haha! These new players are so interesting!"

Tom burst into laughter. He had gained a lot this time.

Tom then looked at the other 5 players. Instead of chatting privately, he directly pulled a group.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Michael, the son of Baron Taylor. I've received the order to be a hostage in the Rock City."

Tom called himself Michael, who directly showed his fake identity.

Lillian saw the group of messages. What a coincidence! It was Michael again.

As soon as he finished talking with her, he began to publicize his identity in the group.

She wanted to see what Michael wanted to do.

"Wow! I didn't expect that you could pull the group chat directly!"

The player Jacob was the first to respond to Tom in the group.

She was good-looking, but she was also a little dull.

"Sure! After all, we are in the game world."

Player Hunter said honestly.

As the saying goes, "Tears swim in eyes when fellow-townsmen meet each other."

After these two people responded, people in the group began to chat.

"We can't go back to the blue planet anymore. If we die in the magic continent, we will die."

"Death is so close to us! How can we survive in the game of magic world?"

"Ah! It's so sad! The beginning of the game made us become hostage, but we want to live!"

"Oh my God! How can I live on?"

"Hahaha, don't be too pessimistic. Since we've already come to the magic continent, we should bravely move forward! What are we afraid of?"

"We're dead in the blue planet, and now we're reborn. What can we do is move forward!"

"Yes, I want to go to the Rock City. I don't know if I can get a novice gift pack when I arrive there."

"What is a novice gift pack? There is no hint at all!"

"Then let's go to the Rock City to have a look. We are brave warriors from the blue planet. We are afraid of nothing!"

The six people chatted happily in the group chat as if they had found their family.

Suddenly, they found that there were seven people in the group. Why didn't the group leader Michael say anything except for the first sentence?

They didn't know that Tom's assumed name was Michael, who had been paying close attention to the chatting interface. He didn't miss every word they said.

"Why doesn't group leader Michael speak?" Li asked.

Tom replied immediately.

"Can't we go back? I was hit by this sentence. I just accept the fact that I can't go back to the blue planet."

Hearing this, everyone talked lively again.

"Why do you still think so much? The blue planet is going to be destroyed, let alone the body of the blue planet is dead. Even if we go back, what can we do?"

"Yes. Besides, I didn't see any option to go back in the task."

"So we can't go back. Let's do the first hostage task together. It's more important to reach the peak of life together."

As soon as his words came out, the crowd burst into an uproar.

"That's right. Let's do a mission together. Then we can do something big in the Rock City!"

Seeing this, Tom quickly replied, "But my father has not surrendered to Count Tom, so I may not be able to be with you."

"Poor Michael, we six go to the Rock City first. You have to wait for your father's decision."
