I held the textbook in both hands and looked at it briefly, figuring out that I was holding it upside down, “Both are too far away from me, right now, my only goal is to quickly recruit 10 people into Zhan Long…”
Wan Er sighed, a pair of beautiful eyes looked at me, “How many people are there as of right now?”
“Including me, 6 people…”
Dong Cheng Yue chuckled, clenching her fist, ” Brother Xiao Yao, you can do it!”
“…” I gave no answer.
Wan Er then asked, “When are you going to establish Zhan Long?”
I gave it some thought, then said, “There are three conditions that must be met before I will establish a guild.”
“Oh? What conditions?
“First off, Zhan Long has to have at least 50 people. Secondly, the Gold to RMB exchange rate must be lower than 1:5, or else 10,000 gold would be too costly. Thirdly, the studio’s average Lv has to be at least Lv 45, and we need to get the Guild Creation Table by ourselves otherwise, it would be too expensive to buy one even if we sold ourselves off…”
Wan Er listened to my conditions attentively and with a sweet smile, she said, “Okay then, I’ll just have to cheer for you in spirit, work hard okay? Dong Cheng and I are waiting for you to enter China’s top 10 guilds before we will join. Then, we will leave [Hero Mound] without a trace of hesitation and become a part of Zhan Long, okay?”
“That’s good! Let’s eat an early lunch since I have to go finish a mission in the afternoon…”
“Okay!”
…
Afternoon 12:30: I get online, even though it’s a little late!
“Slash!”
Appearing not too far away from the Cave of Despair, I saw that Little Wolf, Little K and Darling Duck are fighting a Lv 54 Elite Monster which was giving them some trouble.
“Keng!”
I unsheathed the Frost Rain Sword while Bobo shot forth to lend a hand. But since I was not in their party yet, all of the experience was given to them.
“Brother Xiao Yao!”
Little Wolf looked happy, “We earned a lot today! Almost all of the equipment we earned yesterday at the Cave of Despair was sold. We already earned a profit of 372 Gold. If we continue at this rate, Zhan Long will make 100,000 Yuan per month and be a top end studio!”
I nodded, “Okay, then let’s continue to work hard and begin the final path and start killing; we will most likely finish the mission at the end of the cave.”
“Okay!”
…
After almost 2 hours, around 3:30 PM, a pair of black steel gates appeared at the end of the path embedded into the cave-side, appeared in our vision. On the steel gate was an iron ring, as if it was inviting us to knock on the gates.
“The Shrine of Despair is on the other side…” Little Wolf clenched his dagger, “Brother Xiao Yao, are you going to knock on the gates or should I?”
“Be careful of traps…” I cautiously held my sword while I took a step forward, “I’ll knock, but be ready to fight, who knows what is inside the Shrine of Despair!”
“Okay, be careful!”
I stepped forward and gripping the ring, I struck the gate with it!
“Bang!”
The entire gate trembled with the sudden vibrations and slowly opened. All of a sudden, an extremely foul smell came wafting in from the shrine–
Blood dripped all over the floor while the decapitated corpse of a Cyclops lay inside of the shrine, trembling. What a powerful creature, to have this much vitality even after having its head cut off! It was truly amazing!
…
In the center of the shrine, the head of the Cyclops was impaled on a sturdy totem pole. Just below, a man wearing a black robe looked up, and with a “Flap” of his robes, some of the leftover blood splattered onto the floor while he drank the rest of what dripped from the severed head. Laughing cruelly, he said, “With the addition of this powerful life force, it is possible to break the Bloodseeker’s seal! Haha! Wait until I lead the Bloodseeker’s army and massacre those fools in Ba Huang City!
