Lv77 Nightshade Woods.
Blades flashed and swords clashed, with fighting raging everywhere.
Under Wang Junjie's leadership, the Chaos Era Guild had ultimately developed too well.
Although both were top-tier guilds in the Inferno City.
But compared to them, the Blood Dance Guild was completely no match for Chaos Era!
The three thousand Blood Dance players present were instantly slaughtered and thrown into complete disarray!
Seeing that their opponent's strength was actually so formidable.
Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert did not feel the slightest bit afraid.
Seeing that the Blood Dance Guild under his command was already completely unable to contend with Chaos Era.
"Retreat!"
Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert made the decision immediately and gave the order.
He hurriedly led the few hundred remaining Blood Dance players who had not yet been killed and hastily withdrew from the battlefield through the other side of Nightshade Woods.
Before this, Blood Dance and Chaos Era had always been allies and had never had the chance to fight each other.
At this moment, Han Ruoli finally saw the truth clearly through the facts: "The Chaos Era Guild is actually this strong!"
At the same time, Han Ruoxi could not help but look at Wang Junjie differently: Who would have thought that the usually unreliable Wang Junjie could actually be this dependable at a time like this!
But when she thought about how she had suddenly lost everything.
And even though the enemy who had killed her father was right before her eyes, there was nothing she could do to take revenge.
She did not even know where she should go from here.
A deep sense of helplessness left the sisters Han Ruoli and Han Ruoxi both dejected.
At this moment, Wang Junjie came before Han Ruoxi.
Carrying his sword, he laughed heartily and said, "Although you've lost Blood Dance, you still have me!"
"Ruoxi, from now on, I, Wang Junjie, will be your backer!"
Han Ruoxi nodded and said gratefully, "Thank you, Young Master Wang."
At this moment, Military Advisor Chaos Era Zhuge said to Han Ruoxi and Han Ruoli, "Why don't both of you come to Ning'an, Jiang Province?"
"It's a second-tier city. Although it's not as prosperous as your capital, small cities have the peace and quiet of small cities. They're free and unrestrained, without the intrigue and bitter struggles of big cities."
Han Ruoli and Han Ruoxi exchanged a glance.
Originally, after they had just received the news that they had been fired by the company offline, they did not know where to go next.
After all, they were in a big city like the capital.
All their paths of retreat had been sealed off by Han Cheng.
It was difficult for them even to find a place to stay.
Right now, leaving the capital and coming to Ning'an to start over really was a good choice.
Thus, Han Ruoxi agreed, "Then, I'll have to trouble Young Master Wang."
"No trouble!" Wang Junjie, who had long wanted to develop a relationship with Han Ruoxi offline, was already so happy that he could not close his mouth. "Then, Ruoxi, I'll get someone to buy plane tickets for you two right now. When you arrive in Ning'an, I'll pick you up at the airport!"
"Mm-hmm, okay!"
...
For Han Ruoli and Han Ruoxi, what happened tonight may have happened too suddenly.
But in fact, all of this had been planned long ago...
Elsewhere.
After Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert led the remaining forces of the Blood Dance Guild out of Nightshade Woods.
He immediately sent a message to [Lonely Island] through his friends list: "Boss, I've already taken control of the Blood Dance Guild. What should we do next?"
Lonely Island: "Hunt indiscriminately across the entire territory."
Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert: "Understood!"
Closing the chat window.
Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert immediately ordered the Blood Dance Guild players around him: "Pass down my order. Everyone in the guild, go into the wilderness and find prey. Kill freely!"
"Anyone whose personal KPI is less than ten kills by tonight will be kicked out of the guild!"
At this, everyone looked at one another.
"Indiscriminately killing players? Then wouldn't we become no different from Genesis and the Divine Kingdom Guild, whom everyone curses on the Divine Oracle Forum?"
"While killing other players, there's also the risk of getting killed ourselves. Why would we do something that loses more than it gains?"
Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert did not explain. Relying only on his authority, he ordered, "You only need to obey the order!"
"Anyone who disobeys the order will be kicked out of the guild immediately!"
"In addition, starting today, everyone's salary in the guild will be increased by 30%!"
The benefits of a top-tier guild were truly difficult to give up.
The overall environment was bad now.
Under the pressure of making a living, everyone could only obey Solitary Smoke in the Great Desert's order: "Received!"
...
The same thing was not happening only to the Blood Dance Guild.
Within the territory of the Inferno City, quite a few guilds were experiencing the same situation.
North of the city, wilderness area.
Lv75 Quarry.
A five-hundred-person guild called [Miracle] was forming groups of three or five inside the quarry, hunting the monster Stone Lions and collecting Stone Crystals to complete quests.
Suddenly, led by Super God Athena, a group of players with the [Super God] ID rushed into the quarry.
"Who is the guild master?" Super God Athena looked at the many [Miracle] Guild players scattered throughout the quarry.
At this moment, a Level 75 Soul Archer player named [Miracle Immortal] walked out from the crowd.
"I'm the guild master of the Miracle Guild. What is it?"
"What business do you have?"
Super God Athena looked directly at the Soul Archer man Miracle Immortal, her expression cold as she said, "Twenty million. I'll acquire your guild."
Miracle Immortal refused without hesitation: "I'm not selling."
"What, you think it's too little?" Super God Athena said contemptuously. "Then I'll add another ten million. Thirty million!"
Miracle Immortal still refused: "It's not a matter of money. The brothers in my guild have gone through life and death together with me. It's impossible for me to sell these brothers in the guild for money!"
"Is that so?" Super God Athena said coldly. "I hope these so-called brothers of yours think the same way."
As soon as her voice fell.
Clang!
Super God Athena suddenly drew her blade, catching him off guard.
S-rank Talent: Declaration of War + S-rank Blood Blade + S-rank Flame Enhancement + S-rank One-Blade Slash.
She directly killed Miracle Immortal, the Level 75 full-health Sword-and-Shield Warrior and guild master of the Miracle Guild, with a single slash.
"Bastard! You!"
"How dare you kill our guild master!"
"Brothers, get her! Kill her!"
Just as the surrounding Miracle Guild players were furious, picking up their weapons and preparing to surround and kill Super God Athena.
Super God Athena calmly said to them, "Join my guild. On top of your current guild salaries, your salary and benefits will be increased by 50%."
"Everyone, interested in discussing it?"
At this, all the surrounding players hesitated again!
Miracle Player A: "With my current salary at Miracle being seven thousand yuan a month, a 50% increase would mean...I'd be earning over ten thousand a month?!"
Miracle Player B: "Fuck! These conditions are really good! Working for two months here is worth working three months at Miracle!"
Miracle Player C: "Since we're all doing it to make money, what's the difference who we work for?"
Thus, after the players discussed it among themselves.
They all expressed their positions...
"Fine! I'll join you!"
"I'll join you too!"
"Do you have five insurances and one housing fund? If you do, I'll go too!"
...
The corners of Super God Athena's mouth rose.
She opened her friends list and sent a message to Lonely Island: "Godfather, we've taken down the seventh guild!"
Elsewhere.
Outside the city, in a gloomy forest.
Messages from friends kept popping up before Lonely Island—
Super God Invincible: "Boss, I've acquired the Angel Club of the Inferno City for five million!"
Super God Voiceless: "Boss, I've acquired the Excellent Guild of the Inferno City for twenty million!"
Super God Blade: "Boss, I've acquired the Temple Guild of the Inferno City for thirteen million!"
...
At the same time, beside him, Ji Ningshuang counted: "Godfather, we've now acquired a total of 55 studios, clubs, and guilds within the territory of the Inferno City, with about 87,000 people in total!"
"Adding Genesis, the Divine Kingdom, and the Blood Dance Guild, that's nearly one hundred thousand people in total! It should be about enough!"
"There's one more."
Lonely Island said in a deep voice, "The Mortal Dust Guild."
