Yu Qingcang nodded with satisfaction.
"My teacher once told me that the best way to cherish something is to realize that you might lose it at any moment. Lu Ran is the same. Although Lu Ran is Huaxia, as an independent individual, he has the right not to serve the country."
"I believe if Lu Ran's abilities are exposed, not only will he attract a large number of assassin, but also various countries will do everything to recruit him," Ye Hongyi added.
"Exactly, that's my point. As we all understand the principle that 'tall trees catch much wind,' Lu Ran does too. But he's willing to take the risk of exposing himself to us, so we shouldn't let his heart grow cold," Yu Qingcang concluded.
After speaking.
He paused and said, "I will report to the higher-ups to grant Lu Ran the highest permission to access the equipment treasury. He can use any equipment he wants without needing approval, and we will also set up the highest resource level for him."
This left everyone very surprised.
Opening up the equipment treasury for free access means Lu Ran won't need to endlessly attempt certain dungeons to pursue specific gear.
He can wholeheartedly level up!
Liu Xinxin nodded and said, "Everyone understands Lu Ran's significance. This isn't just within our country—historically for professionals globally, such horrifying capabilities have never appeared before. One month later, when he's grown, be it a national war or a large team dungeon, Lu Ran will lead us to the summit of the world!"
Qin Lie and Xu Jie couldn't get a word in.
Listening to the four guild leaders who usually call the shots now offering almost adolescent praise for Lu Ran was indeed rare.
It also gave them a sense of relief.
At least this group didn't represent that the country felt Lu Ran stepping out was something he should necessarily do.
Yu Qingcang then said, "As the president of the Celestial Path Alliance, with many matters to handle upstairs, I can't personally take him around. I'll have to trouble the three of you, and besides, your level gap with him is quite large. This needs to be addressed through the Platinum Team Contract to reduce team experience penalty, or else efficiency will suffer."
Ye Hongyi immediately said, "The Platinum Contract, Red Leaf Commerce will ensure daily supply."
Ye Hongyi is not just the guild leader of Red Robe Tower but also the leader of Huaxia's largest civilian commerce outside the digitized trading line—the Red Leaf Commerce!
Claiming she is the wealthiest of Huaxia's professionals wouldn't be an overstatement!
Yu Qingcang beamed.
He continued, "Regarding Lu Ran's guild issue, one month later, the Celestial Path Alliance will invite Lu Ran to join. Although professionals can join multiple guilds, historically, all major guilds have expressly forbidden their members from being involved with two organizations, but for Lu Ran, I wonder if you three are willing to accept..."
"Willing!" said the other three guild masters almost in unison.
Yu Qingcang was willing to make this concession, with the Celestial Path Alliance not monopolizing Lu Ran; they were naturally pleased!
"Alright then, a month later, led by the Celestial Path Alliance, the Four Major Guilds will simultaneously invite Lu Ran. He deserves this!" Yu Qingcang stated jovially.
But Lei Tai suddenly remarked beside, "Having the other three guilds invite Lu Ran is normal, but isn't Red Robe Tower a Women's Guild? It's never broken this rule over so many years."
As he spoke, everyone looked at Ye Hongyi.
Since the Ye Family began overseeing the Red Robe Tower, indeed no male professional has ever joined.
This was Red Robe Tower's greatest rule!
But Ye Hongyi casually shrugged, saying, "Rules are dead, people are alive. To forgo inviting Lu Ran to keep a rule, I'm not that foolish."
Finally, the group settled on a result.
The five-person squad members: Lei Tai, Ye Hongyi, Liu Xinxin, Lu Ran, and Qin Wuyao!
As one of the insiders, Qin Wuyao also got to share in the benefits.
Yu Qingcang, being the president of the Celestial Path Alliance and holding important positions upstairs, is busy with matters, naturally can't spare much time to guide Lu Ran.
Fortunately, the other three guild leaders were almost fully equipped!
Lei Tai, as an Earth Knight, stands out even among hidden tank professions, along with his level, identity, ability, and equipment, he can be considered Huaxia's number one tank!
Ye Hongyi, with her Karma Fire Celestial Master, is almost the top version of strong offensive fire skill, serving as the main firepower output!
Liu Xinxin's role is simple—sticking closely to Lu Ran, with the terrifying healing skills and team protection skills of an Elf High Priest, preventing any accidents targeted at Lu Ran.
The extra spot was allocated to Qin Wuyao.
The reason: Having a peer girl accompany him while dungeon running ensures Lu Ran wouldn't feel too bored.
Qin Wuyao became the chat companion!
With three guild leaders leveling up and a pretty girl for company, this treatment is unparalleled!
Qin Lie was all smiles, nurturing Lu Ran while also allowing Qin Wuyao's level to rapidly elevate—an absolute gain!
After, the four guild leaders, along with Qin Lie, Xu Jie, and Qin Wuyao, all added Lu Ran's communication device.
Lu Ran can at any time, seek help from the four guild masters and get assistance!
The path to leveling up thus began!
Due to level restrictions, Lu Ran can now only enter the Death Mine Dungeon at level ten!
To avoid drawing too much attention, the three guild leaders specifically wore cloaked hats to conceal their faces, and went to the dungeon hall with Lu Ran and Qin Wuyao.
Otherwise, with the three leaders accompanying him, Lu Ran's fame could sweep the nation in just one day, or even reach abroad.
"Lu Ran, you be the team leader and start the dungeon," Liu Xinxin said, sticking by Lu Ran's side.
She seems shy in personality, but to become the guild leader of Mirror Flower Water Moon, could she possibly be a blunt person?
"Alright, what difficulty should I choose?" Lu Ran opened the dungeon list, chose Death Mine, glimpsed the difficulty levels, and asked.
"Abyss, the highest difficulty dungeon; more monsters, higher experience points," Liu Xinxin replied without hesitation.
Lu Ran thought to himself he'd been careless.
With three guild leaders tackling a mere level ten dungeon, how difficult could it be?
Although the dungeon difficulty increases, with attributes of monsters such as health, defense, attack, speed increasing geometrically.
But even the Abyss difficulty poses no difference to the guild leaders.
Qin Wuyao obediently followed beside Lu Ran, cheerfully looking forward to entering the dungeon.
Then, with a flash of white light, the five disappeared into the teleportation array in the dungeon hall.
The scene changed before them, and Lu Ran hadn't yet collected his bearings.
Suddenly from beside, Liu Xinxin's voice rang out: "Death Mine Abyss difficulty has four regions, containing four hundred eighty ordinary goblin of five different types each. The first three regions contain three elite goblin, and the fourth has two goblin brothers. The final boss is a composite boss, four Blastfire Goblin, totaling four hundred eighty-nine monsters."
As soon as she spoke.
Ye Hongyi walked over to Lu Ran and traded him a metallic-hued sheepskin scroll.
She said, "As the team leader, use the contract scroll to reduce experience penalties, and then we'll start clearing."
