In the Southern Wilderness City, in an unknown clearing of the Western Forest, a young man approached with determination.
"Big Brother, please take me as your disciple!"
Having witnessed Yi Tianchen's devastating power firsthand and seen him sweep away all the equipment and gold coins from the ground like a whirlwind, the young man, who looked to be about the same age as Yi Tianchen and introduced himself as Not a Master, was completely awestruck by Yi Tianchen's Wolf Demon Armor.
"Come on, this armor is quite expensive!" Yi Tianchen replied.
"Uh..."
Not a Master paused for a moment, quickly releasing his grip but still maintaining a serious expression. "Big Brother, I'm very serious. As long as you accept me as your disciple, I will follow you through fire and water without hesitation."
Yi Tianchen smiled lightly and changed the subject. "Hey, what’s your relationship with those guys?"
Not a Master understood that Yi Tianchen was referring to the archer who had pushed him into danger. Anger surged within him as he coldly huffed, "I only met them in the game; we played together for a while. Damn it, I never expected him to be such a person, attacking his own teammates when faced with danger. If I see him again, I will definitely make him pay back everything he owes!"
"Don't worry; I’m sure you’ll see him again soon!" Yi Tianchen said with a mysterious smile, glancing towards the direction where the archers had left.
"What do you mean?" Not a Master scratched his head in confusion.
Yi Tianchen didn’t explain further; he simply patted Not a Master's shoulder to signal him not to rush. In fact, there was no need to hurry because all mysteries would soon be revealed with the arrival of a voice...
"Brother Long, just ahead! We encountered the BOSS right here!"
"It’s him!"
At those words, Not a Master trembled all over, gripping his weapon tightly with wide eyes, ready for a fight to the death.
"Don’t be impulsive; if they dare to come back, they must have some strong backup!" Yi Tianchen warned as he swiftly moved into a nearby bush. Not a Master followed closely behind and crouched down next to him.
"Big Brother, you're amazing! Just as you said, they really came!"
“Shh… Don’t expose us!”
“Mm!”
Holding his breath, Yi Tianchen slightly opened his eyes to peer through the bushes. From a distance, although he couldn't see anyone yet, he could clearly hear the sounds approaching—rustling, and it seemed there were quite a few of them.
Sure enough, moments later, the first figure appeared—it was the archer from earlier. Behind the archer, the initial three players were gone, replaced by three new faces. It was easy to tell from their weapons that the one in front was a swordsman, the one in the middle was a Berserker, and the last one was an assassin.
“Hmm, Brother Long, it’s just…”
The archer’s excited voice abruptly cut off as he stared intently at the corpse of the Mutated Bullhead Leader on the ground, disbelief etched on his face. “This… this is impossible! He’s only level 18, with white gear. There’s no way he could defeat a level 28 mutated BOSS! Brother Long, this absolutely…”
“Hmph…”
The swordsman known as Brother Long shot a fierce glare at the archer, effectively silencing him. Then, in a grim tone, he said, “Very good. You’ve fooled us once again!”
“Brother Long, this is definitely a misunderstanding! Even if you gave me ninety-nine lives, I wouldn’t dare to deceive you!”
The archer seemed genuinely intimidated by this swordsman, which piqued Yi Tianchen's interest in him. What kind of person could instill such fear in another player?
“Do you know this person?” Yi Tianchen whispered to Not a Master beside him.
Not a Master nodded and lowered his voice. “This person is called Owl Dragon World. He’s the President of the Fierce Dragon Guild and reportedly has several thousand subordinates. Recently, it seems he has been recruiting quite a few forces from the underworld and is gaining momentum to become the First Guild in Southern Wilderness City!”
“Owl Dragon World…”
Yi Tianchen paused for a moment; he recognized the name from the Level rankings. However, he was also curious why a Guild President would personally come for a level 28 BOSS with only two companions—it was certainly worth pondering.
“Brother Long, I really didn’t mean to…”
“Pfft…”
Two cold flashes cut through the air without warning, and a pair of icy eyes appeared from the side of the archer. A dagger sliced across the throat and then swiftly plunged into the abdomen, striking two critical points.
As two damage numbers floated up, the archer collapsed, lifeless. Though his eyes were wide open in shock, he ultimately fell limply to the ground.
Assassins, skilled in ambush and concealment, are always the most terrifying presence!
Watching the sudden turn of events, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel a flicker of surprise. What was going on? Was this archer not one of their group?
"Third Brother, I’m sorry!" The swordsman turned and gave a helpless smile to the Berserker.
"Anyone who dares challenge Raptor's Dignity deserves to die. Even if this person is my cousin, that doesn’t change anything!" The Berserker spoke with an expressionless face, his tone as cold as the ancient snow atop Mount Everest. Even from a distance, Yi Tianchen could feel that chilling aura.
So the archer was this Berserker's cousin. Moreover, from how the swordsman referred to him as "Third Brother," it was clear that this Berserker held a significant position in the Fierce Dragon Guild. Coupled with the assassin's swift action, could this be what they called the Guild Triumvirate?
No need for further speculation; Yi Tianchen's companion, Not a Master, lowered his voice and said, "This assassin is Fallen Grudge, the First Assassin of Fierce Dragon Guild; Berserker Frost Dragon Wuhen is also the First Berserker of Fierce Dragon Guild."
Yi Tianchen smiled speechlessly; he hadn't expected Not a Master to know so much. In contrast, he felt like a frog at the bottom of a well—holding the top spot on the Level leaderboard yet failing to recognize any of its notable figures.
In that brief moment of distraction, Yi Tianchen loosened his grip on Bush, which suddenly sprang back with a loud snap, causing him to break into a cold sweat.
Accompanying that slight noise, the naturally sensitive and stealthy assassin Fallen Grudge vanished from sight and entered Stealth Mode.
"This is bad!"
Yi Tianchen froze as a sharp whistling sound rushed toward the back of his head. While marveling at the assassin's speed, he sidestepped and kicked Not a Master away. Using that momentum, he moved back about half a meter.
In an instant, a dagger emitting cold air had already pierced where Yi Tianchen had just been standing, leaving only its hilt exposed.
After throwing the dagger, Fallen Grudge's eyes glinted with coldness and surprise as he launched another diagonal strike toward Yi Tianchen's chest.
However, everything happened too quickly. With Yi Tianchen still on the ground, he had no chance to counter or evade. With no other option but to defend himself with all his might against this furious assault.
A metallic clash echoed through the air, and a spark flew out dramatically. Due to the peculiar circumstances at the scene, although Yi Tianchen managed to block Fallen Grudge's attack, he was still inevitably knocked back.
Not far away, the leader of Owl Dragon World looked at Yi Tianchen with some surprise and chuckled, "There are definitely not many in Southern Wilderness City who can evade a strike from Fallen Grudge. Friend, let me introduce myself. I am Owl Dragon World, the President of Fierce Dragon Guild. May I ask which guild you belong to? You seem rather unfamiliar!"
Yi Tianchen smiled slightly as he stood up from the ground, glancing at the astonished Fallen Grudge. A wave of unease washed over him. Assassins, skilled in hiding and ambushing, always had a way of appearing unnoticed and launching deadly attacks in an instant.
However, what surprised Yi Tianchen the most was Owl Dragon World's demeanor. This prominent figure on the Level rankings, the President of Fierce Dragon Guild, was surprisingly polite.
The only explanation was that Owl Dragon World wanted to win Yi Tianchen over!
In that moment, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. The Owl Dragon World before him was clearly a person of deep cunning. Upon witnessing this scene, he immediately recognized Yi Tianchen's considerable strength and prepared for an attempt to recruit him after some flattery.
Such a person must be approached with caution!
As he pondered this, Not a Master charged forward like a bull, glaring with wide eyes and standing protectively in front of Yi Tianchen. With his great sword held horizontally, he declared, "If you want to touch my master, you'll have to step over my dead body!"
