Christmas Eve.

Even though Chen Guo had decorated the Internet Cafe in a Christmas fashion, it had only been done for attracting business. Her dinner was even simpler and cruder than usual. She took her bowl to the computer and finished eating it there. She still had to count how many Christmas thieves Ye Xiu would eventually end up gathering!

The count continued to grow. Chen Guo stopped being astonished at every increase. She currently felt like she was watching a thriller. Just how many Christmas thieves would be gathered? That was the answer she was waiting for.

Meanwhile, the other experts in the tenth server's Sin City were no longer able to sit still any longer.

The number of players who came to spectate grew larger and larger. With such a long train running around in Sin City's streets and alleys, no matter how bad the visibility was in the city, it was still possible to see an abnormal situation like this quite easily.

What everyone had thought was impossible was slowly becoming a reality.

"What is he trying to do?" The leaders of the big guilds were all discussing this.

The most sensitive among them was Excellent Dynasty. They could already see the effects from Lord Grim's movements from the data: their hunting progress in Sin City had slowed down. Christmas thieves continued to accumulate under Lord Grim. No matter how hard Excellent Dynasty searched, it was becoming harder and harder to find available Christmas thieves to kill.

Even worse, none of the Christmas thieves Lord Grim pulled were dying. If they weren't dying, then they wouldn't respawn, which meant that the number of Christmas thieves the other players could kill in Sin City was becoming less and less.

Excellent Dynasty was leading on the Christmas Hunting Leaderboards and needed Sin City to form a solid foundation. But now, their foundations were slowly crumbling. Their advantage in experts was unable to be displayed.

Chen Yehui obviously didn't want to lose their advantage. After sending out Wind Following Sword and his troops, he picked other experts to react as well. And this time, they weren't going to just hinder him. If they found Lord Grim, then they were to immediately kill him!

After Lord Grim died, they would then be able to gather many Christmas thieves. This profit was enough to make Chen Yehui excited.

Chen Yehui wasn't the only one with this thought process. In front of such a profit, killing others was bound to happen.

Everyone understood that Lord Grim was a skilled expert, but under this type of situation, what did it matter if he was a god-level expert?

As the driver of the train, he didn't have the opportunity to pause for even the slightest bit. With that type of pressure, how was he going to fight with other players? They didn't even need to fight him directly. If they just stalled him, the mob of Christmas thieves would eventually swarm him and crush him into a pulp.

The guilds had created their own beautiful plans and then sent out their players to accomplish it. The number of players coming out wasn't few, either. After eliminating Lord Grim, they would immediately scramble for the Christmas thieves.. so, the more players, the better!

But the reality of the situation wasn't as beautiful as they had anticipated.

Wind Following Sword, who had been chasing after Lord Grim's whereabouts the entire time, had discovered the issue long ago.

It wasn't hard to find Lord Grim's general whereabouts. The train parading through the streets was pretty easy to see. However, the train was way too chaotic. Finding out where exactly Lord Grim was in the train was extraordinarily difficult.
