The Boss Behind The Game 99 The Excited Fool

A Specter Warship was sailing toward the island from the sea afar. Liu Chai informed the orc who was guarding the harbor the intention of their visit upon their arrival.

Xiao Tian hurried over to the harbor as soon as he received the news.

Looking at the familiar figures of Liu Chai and his men, Xiao Tian was rather buzzed.

He knew that the Demolition Traders would not have returned the next day if the thieves who stole the Son of the Sea were not found.

"Have you found the thieves who stole the Son of the Sea?" Xiao Tian looked at Liu Chai and asked agitatedly.

Liu Chai nodded calmly, "Not only did I find the thieves, but I have also seized them for you."

Liu Chai waved his hand toward his back while he spoke. Three players with heavy armor were then brought down from the battleship.

Looking at the three players who were chained up before him, Xiao Tian could not believe his eyes.

How could the thieves who stole the Son of the Sea be caught so easily? That was rather effortless. He thought the Demolition Traders came back with some news, it was totally unexpected to him that they had already caught the thieves.

"Boss, they should be it, there shouldn't be any mistakes. They look quite similar to the thieves, they should belong to the same clan," an orc who had blood stains all over his body and a badly beaten face stood out and said.

Xiao Tian looked at the three chained up players with a cold expression upon hearing what his subordinate said.

"Are you the ones who stole the Son of the Sea? Answer me!"

Xiao Tian went ahead to punch one of the players on his chest while asking.

Xiao Tian did not use much power on his punch, yet the player spat out blood, wailing in agony.

Watching how his underling, who had his sense of pain sealed away, making up such a good act, Liu Chai nodded with satisfaction silently.

These underlings were the few rather quick-witted ones from his guild. They were specifically chosen by Liu Chai to deceive Xiao Tian and to swindle the remaining 30 blades of spirit materials.

Xiao Tian then extended his hand to pull that player's hair to lift his head, "Answer me! Are you the ones who stole the Son of the Sea?"

With a painful expression, the player spat a mouthful of blood toward Xiao Tian's face, "It's me, so what?"

Xiao Tian's face got purple with rage upon hearing the player's confession. However, he sensed that something was off right when he was about to continue questioning.

The player admitted too eagerly as if he had been waiting for him to question him.

This made Xiao Tian's heart sink. He asked again, "There must be someone behind this, you must be a scapegoat. Tell me, who is the one behind the theft of the Son of the Sea?"

Upon hearing Xiao Tian's question, Liu Chai could not help but send another message in the guild live chat channel.

"That's right, let him suspect you. It would be best to let him think that there is a big organization behind you, you better put up a good act!"

The player looked toward Xiao Tian and laughed upon hearing what Liu Chai ordered, "What are you talking about? It's just us. We snuck onto the island from the seaside and hid next to the spiritual field for a few hours. I took the opportunity to steal the Son of the Sea when the guards were changing shifts. My partner who stayed off was killed!"

"Oh, right, I even killed your son. What was his name again? Gou Dan, right?" the player continued with a sneer.

Xiao Tian was outraged. He raised his arm and slapped the player's face until it was badly mutilated.

"It's really you! How dare you, tell me where the Son of the Sea is now!"

Seeing how the player had provoked Xiao Tian's anger, Liu Chai went on to send a message again on the guild live chat channel.

"Good one, carry on with your acting! You will have your share of the spiritual material!"

The player who was slapped was overjoyed as he heard that but he remained to look feeble.

"Son of the Sea? Too bad, it is already sold off by our boss. Do you want it? Go look for him by yourself!"

The player's words provoked Xiao Tian to a great extent. He would have just killed the players off with one slap if they did not hold any clues.

"I knew it, there is someone behind this. Tell me who is your boss and I will let you off!" realizing how stubborn the player was on keeping his mouth shut, Xiao Tian changed his mode of questioning.

"You should worry about the other four Sons of the Sea on Insect Island instead. Trying to look for our boss? In your dreams!"

The player's words gave Xiao Tian quite a scare as it made him realize that the organization behind the theft of the Son of the Sea seemed to be plotting their next steal. What made him even more distressed was the fact that this person could even point out that there were four Sons of the Sea remaining on the island accurately.

A theft with plots and plans? A thought came across Xiao Tian's mind.

Xiao Tian was further enraged. He was not sure of what organization was behind it nor who would go this far in targeting him. Thinking of how they might plot to steal the remaining four Sons of the Sea, Xiao Tian felt uneasy and alerted at the same time.

He could still explain himself in front of the Sea King if only one Son of the Sea was lost. Although he might get beaten up badly, he could still keep his life.

However, Xiao Tian was clear that his only chance of survival was to flee from the Void Ocean if the remaining four Sons of the Sea were to be stolen as the Sea King would never let him off easily.

Xiao Tian was eager to find out who was the one plotting against the theft at that moment.

"Do you really think that I have no other ways to deal with you? We have plenty of means of extortion on Insect Island. You better speak the truth if you don't wish to suffer," Xiao Tian refused to give up asking.

Yet, the three players remained stubborn as if they would rather die than give in.

Looking at the situation, Xiao Tian waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to detain those three players in the inner region of the island.

Xiao Tian cupped his hands before his chest showing a sign of respect toward Liu Chai after the three players had been taken away.

"The Demolition Traders really do live up to their name, you have my respect. If I may ask, can you take up another request from me?"

Liu Chai laughed in the guild live chat channel upon hearing those words.

"Brothers, look at that fool, he really fell for it! He even uttered nonsense about the Demolition Traders living up to its name as if he really knows! Ha! Ha! Ha!"

The guild members could not contain their laughter as they all cheered in the live chat.

"Lord Xiao Tian, to be frank, we have mustered a great deal of our guild's information-gathering network. We found traces from the smallest clue and even went ahead to catch the thieves personally…"

Xiao Tian immediately understood what Liu Chai was trying to say and raised his hand to stop him from continuing although he had not finished speaking.

"100 blades of Derived Spiritual Rice. Find the mastermind behind this. I, Xiao Tian, will pay you the reward you deserve!"

Xiao Tian's offer got the Demolition Guild members' hearts pumping up.

Liu Chai nodded while acting calm.

"Since Lord Xiao Tian is so sincere, the Demolition Traders will definitely do our best!"

Xiao Tian had a smile on his face upon hearing what he said. He then took over the 30 blades of Derived Spiritual Rice prepared earlier from the hands of one of his subordinates and handed it over to Liu Chai.

"I, Xiao Tian, look forward to the Demolition Traders' next visit!"
