Legendary! Crescent Warhorse Egg! Lin Jie was stunned.

“That’s a very nice reward.” Lin Qingyu tried to say something better, but she had no knowledge of the game.

She turned around and asked Lin Jie, “Mr. Lone Wolf, I’m going to start playing the game soon. Any help you can render?”

Lin Jie smiled. “Sure, I can provide you all the potions you need before Level 30.” He had to give her some face as she was a well-known celebrity.

After that, Lin Qingyu made some closing statements, and Best Of The Best officially ended.

Everyone left Ragnarok with satisfaction. Those were some good games to watch. They had gotten many gift bags too—some had even gotten 10 gold coins from them.

At Sakura’s bar.

Savage Blade’s members gathered in their VIP room and were happily drinking.

“Cheers!”

“Nice! Now they know who’s the best out of the best! We got all the fame and rewards! What a nice day!” Zheng Ziliang said happily, “Come on, let’s cheer for Lone Wolf!”

Lin Jie waved his hand and said, “Don’t praise me so much. We won the competition together. Charming Smile used her skill so perfectly that it wore down their HP. Baili and Ziliang did great too. You guys wasted so many skills even when you were at death’s door. In the end, I could only survive due to Bu Yi’s healing. The victory is ours to share!”

Everyone drank to their heart’s content. Lin Jie seldom allowed them to drink, but now, it was the time that they could drink freely.

The New Age was a very realistic game, and one could get drunk in the game too. However, players could use the system setting to remove such feelings.

Baili Changcheng started to feel the alcohol entering his bloodstream. He played with his cup and said, “Today, those old guys in my family started investing in the game. Supreme Tribe will get a sum of money too. Now, it’s time to expand our territory.”

“You fulfill your criteria already?” asked Lin Jie. He was referring to tripling the money Baili Changcheng had received.

“Haha, way more than that! Ever since you announced that Supreme Tribe would be allied with the Brotherhood, its value skyrocketed. Today, we won the competition, so the Supreme Tribe’s worth increased further!” Baili Changcheng smiled. “My family asked me to see if you are interested in accepting their investment.”

Lin Jie started to be serious.

Netherblue said, “After today’s broadcast, many corporations, be it small or big, will start to invest in the game. Steel Allies accepted an investment from a clothing company. They will start shops in the City of Light and name them after that company. They will then take a portion of the profit. It is like an advertisement.”

“Accepting investments allows the guild to gain more profits. They can also settle the salary of the elites in the guild. It is a win-win situation. I’m only saying it because I want you to understand the current situation. Many organizations are interested in working with the Brotherhood. We should hit the iron while it is hot.”

Lin Jie nodded. He thought about it for a while and said, “I’m not planning to accept any investment yet.

“Investments can make the guild to develop better and produce more capital. However, that’s not my goal for the guild. My goal is to make it so well-known that people will tremble in fear, hearing our name!”

Lin Jie paused for a while and added, “Currently, many members in the Brotherhood do not like being restrained by guild rules. But they are good. When they go around with the Brotherhood title, they can receive 50% additional money. That is our strength.”

“Once we accept investments, we must give part of our share. That’s equivalent to giving others the right to control some of our freedom. In some cases, we may even work for them. That’s not what our Brotherhood stands for.”

Zheng Ziliang frowned and said, “Jie, you might not understand this very well. I must tell you that any guild or organization needs a huge amount of money to develop in the future. If other guilds have investors and we don’t, it will be to our disadvantage.”

“I’m aware of that.” Lin Jie nodded.

“So, what’s the plan now? We wait and start building our own army? Or just us fighting all the way?”

“I’m already working on the army,” replied Lin Jie. “I have a plan to raise 300 men. But it is not easy, and it needs Uniform equipment, which will only appear after Level 50. It’s not the time yet.”

Uniform equipment, it was like the army uniform and sailor suits. It could be mass-produced and very strong. Lin Jie always had it at the back of his head.

“Since you already have a plan, then I will not say any more.” Zheng Ziliang trusted his friend.

“Okay, guys, take it easy. I will accept the investment when the time comes. We have two pros here.” Lin Jie patted Baili Changcheng and Ziliang Ziliang on the back. “By the way, I might disappear for a while.”

They all replied, “No, prob.”

“Erm, I said, I will disappear for some time,” repeated Lin Jie.

The rest reacted the same way.

“…”

It was too normal for Lin Jie to just disappear, so it was already a norm for them.

“Oh yeah, the official webpage says the fourth Main Plot Dungeon will start soon. Don’t be late,” said Netherblue.

“I know. Netherblue, gather the 300 at the North Gate of the City of Light.”

…

At the North Gate of the City of Light.

Compared to the busy South-East Gate, the North Gate was much more peaceful. 70% of the nobles in the main city lived there. Currently, players did not have enough reputation for talking to them to trigger any mission. Thus, players would seldom be seen there.

Lin Jie wore the Lone Wolf Helmet and waited at the gate, looking at the nobles’ beautiful houses. Space Mages specially made those buildings, and the interior was much bigger than the buildings looked.

A player in black robes approached slowly. His steps were very heavy, just like his feelings right now.

He was Feng Yun 21. He used to be well-known in his guild for having the Zerg Queen and his AOE buffs.

However, he had lost everything because of Lin Jie. After he had lost his Zerg Queen, he had been taken lightly in the guild and forced to make an unfair deal with Eighteen Massacres.

Lin Jie asked calmly, “Hello. What’s your level?”

Feng Yun stood still for a while and then replied, “50.”

“That’s nasty,” exclaimed Lin Jie.

There was a contract in the Dark Shrine specially made for Paladins and Priests who believed in the Holy Light. The more faithful they were, the stronger their fallen power—that was the rule of The New Age.

The contract Feng Yun had signed was called Eternal Sin. After signing, he had lost all his skills, and his level was kept at 50. In return, he had gained the ability to summon strong Undead creatures. However, all the EXP he gained would transfer to these Undead creatures—that was the cost of becoming a Fallen.

Now, Feng Yun was not considered as a player, but his Undead creature was. It enjoyed all the benefits of a player! His Contract Summon was a Junior Hell Boy captured by Eighteen Massacres.

All the efforts Feng Yun had put became the Hell Boy’s benefits, and when it was strong enough, Eighteen Massacres would take it away from him. After that, Feng Yun would be useless.

Feng Yun said in despair, “All thanks to you?” He did not blame Lin Jie for what happened. He was just helpless and desperate.

Lin Jie nodded. “You chose the wrong side. I had to do this. You’d be in my way if I let you go freely. I believe that you are that strong.”

“Is that a compliment?” asked Feng Yun.

“You can say that. Now, let’s talk business. You have lost everything you had, your resources, skills, and equipment. But, I can give them back to you, double. The only thing I cannot help is your Zerg Queen. But, I have something to make up for it.”

“Amongst the Undead, your Hell Boy is ranked in the top 10. Every cell is a little Devil by itself. Once it is fully grown, it can split into infinite Devils. It is an army on its own. As such, I made a plan. Take a look.”

Lin Jie passed him the plan he had come up with. Feng Yun was a Paladin with AOE buffs. He used to fight with his Zerg Queen for its ability to reproduce quickly. Lin Jie used that as a basis and used it on his Hell Boy. It would take time and effort to make the plan work.

Feng Yun read it through carefully. After he was done, he sighed and said, “In the end, I’m just helping it to level up? I have an Eternal Sin on me. I cannot level up, remember?”

Lin Jie replied confidently, “Don’t worry about that.”

Then, the 300 members with Orcs appeared.

“Boss!”

“Morning, leader!”

Everyone looked strong and powerful—it was the look of an undaunting army. However, they treated Lin Jie with respect.

“Brothers, come with me to a Level 80 map,” shouted Lin Jie. “This mission is very dangerous, and there is a 70% chance that you will die and level down. Take a moment to decide. I won’t blame you if you choose to quit now. BUT! If you mess up during the mission, you better pray hard! You have ten seconds to make your decision!”

Ten seconds went by in a blink.

All 300 chose to stay! None of them backed off! Rather, they were very excited!
