Wen Nan sat quietly across from the man, like an old friend, accompanying him to vent the emotions buried deep in his heart.
After a long while, Yang Mingzhong put away the brooch and said hoarsely, "Thank you."
Wen Nan shook his head, half-jokingly said, "This ti, you didn't lie to , right?"
It was just a casual comnt, but the man's expression suddenly beca serious. He raised his hand, took a small bottle from the table, tilted his head back, and drank a large mouthful, then replied word by word:
"President, I assure you, every word I said just now ca from the bottom of my heart, definitely no lies."
Wen Nan's eye twitched a little, feeling a pinch in his heart and even more so in his wallet—
No need to take such a big gulp, bro.
His truth serum was very sensitive; just a few drops would suffice, and that gulp was enough for ten tis!
Even though the truth serum was big in quantity, it wasn't endless, okay?
Just as he was thinking, a character ssage was received in the system—
[Xiao Yi: It's Friday today, uncle, you're all mine!]
[Xiao Yi: Sharing location information with you]
[Xiao Yi: Next door to your house, this couple's thed hotel "Flower | and | Snake"]
[Xiao Yi: I'm ready, just waiting for you to co]
[Xiao Yi: [Image]]
The picture still featured close-ups of the blue tattoos [Night] and [Nine], posed even bolder than last ti.
The background seed very blurry, with only a faintly distinguishable large bed covered in rose petals.
Glancing at the ti, a quarter past two in the afternoon.
...Which couple is going to a hotel this early?
Did they arrive just at the earliest check-in ti for the hotel?
Seeing Wen Nan staring at his system ssage for a long ti without speaking, Yang Mingzhong asked, "Is there sothing? Go ahead if you need to, President."
Closing the chat window, Wen Nan smiled at the person opposite, stood up, and prepared to say goodbye.
Yang Mingzhong thought for a mont and, before the other left, called out to him again, "President, there might have been soone... not belonging here who infiltrated this instance."
Wen Nan looked at him seriously, "Do you know them? From your previous guild?"
Yang Mingzhong shook his head, "I just had a gut feeling when scanning the map, vaguely feeling soone ambushed in the shadows, but I didn't see anyone. If there really is soone, their level is probably not low. Be careful, President.
"If there's anything you need, feel free to notify anyti, and I'll arrive as soon as possible."
He originally wanted to ntion that even though he's starting fresh with a lower level, his past experience could always prove useful.
But before the words left his mouth, he turned his head, gazing past Wen Nan's shoulder at the figure leaning against the door, like a hawk staring at its prey, watching them without letting up, and couldn't help but shake his head with a laugh.
"With talents like that around you, President, I suppose you don't lack my help."
Following his gaze, Wen Nan turned to glance at Yu Shujun behind him and didn't refute while saying, "I won't need it. If possible, please follow Huang Yan and Guo Xiaofu."
"Of course, absolutely." Yang Mingzhong nodded solemnly.
...
...
Leaving the café, on the way to the "Flower | and | Snake" thed hotel, Wen Nan slowed his pace and asked Yu Shujun, who was following him, "Wei Junjie... do you know him?"
"Yu Mian Taohua," Yu Shujun said as if counting his personal affects, "the third elder of the Ghost Control Master Alliance, one of the six major guilds, half-step Gold rank, famously known for being able to charm female characters far and wide, passing through countless flowers yet leaving no trace."
Hearing this, Wen Nan paused in his steps, "Such a big na?"
Already at half-step Gold but chose to start over at this ti, what a waste.
But from the description, that alliance president is really sothing. If it were Wen Nan, he would also rather start over than work under such a person.
But that said...
"You know a lot about their guild?"
Wen Nan had previously done so rough research on the six major guilds when he went independent, and he knew the na Yu Mian Taohua, but the true situation of the player behind the title was nowhere to be found from public information.
Yu Shujun's eyelashes lowered slightly, his emotions unruffled as he said, "There was so conflict."
So conflict?
Considering the last ti this brother said soone on the other side got "so" injuries, it ant breaking an arm.
Wen Nan guessed the so-called conflict ntioned by Yu Shujun probably wasn't just a minor grudge.
However, speaking of the guild, Wen Nan suddenly thought of another matter—
"You've also reached Gold, do you have your guild?"
Before, Wen Nan had thought about inviting Yu Shujun's main account to join his guild, but it didn't work out, showing a conflict, which was clearly because of this.
"Yes."
Oh?
According to this ga's guild rules, all mbers must follow the president's arrangents, and since Jun Wuming is now under Wen Nan's command, then...
Roundabout, Jun Wuming's guild mbers are Wen Nan's own!
Thinking of this, Wen Nan beca interested in this unexpected [Wenna] guild "Jun Wuming" branch—
"What's the guild called? The size?"
Yu Shujun's voice was cold, "Naless."
"No na? Can a guild be created without a na?"
Yu Shujun lowered his eyelids, "The na is Naless."
Wen Nan: ಠ.ಠ
Alright, that's very Jun Wuming.
"How much reserve fund? How many pieces of equipnt in the locker? How many teleportation points currently? How many mbers recruited?" Mr. Wen, like an investigator checking for a census, threw out a string of questions.
Yu Shujun's expression was a bit cold, but he still answered faithfully:
"In this instance not belonging to , my account permissions are restricted, unable to log into the community, and unable to check guild funds and equipnt."
"So how many people?" Wen Nan pursued, "It's okay if there are too many to rember; can you give a rough magnitude? One hundred? Five hundred? One thousand? Or... a scale of ten thousand?"
It shouldn't be at the scale of ten thousand; guilds of such size are directly pinned in the community, and Wen Nan couldn't have no impression whatsoever.
Just as he was thinking, Yu Shujun lightly said, "Five."
"...Five?! Including you, only six people?!"
Yu Shujun coldly added, "Including , five."
Wen Nan: ಠ.ಠ
Bro, you're trailing in guilds smaller than mine...
"Isn't it, with such a number, you can't pass the second phase of test operation?"
"Freelance players reaching Gold rank are automatically granted a guild spot without test operation restrictions."
Alright, so this is your reason for stagnation without operations?
Just as he was thinking, he heard Yu Shujun add the answer to an earlier omitted question: "Teleportation point, my guild, doesn't have any."
Wen Nan:...
"No teleportation points? Such an important guild benefit, and you don't have any?"
"They aren't needed."
How could they not be needed?
With teleportation points, players can decide on their own to enter and leave the teleportation hall and corresponding instances, which is a major reason Wen Nan wanted to establish his own guild.
Just as he was thinking, Yu Shujun said, "Players reaching Gold rank can freely traverse any ga hall on their own.
"[Naless] guild doesn't have players below Gold rank."
Wen Nan: ?
Wen Nan: !!!
So, suddenly under his command, there are four more Gold-rank bulls and horses?!
