Chapter 80: Assassin Empress! Middle-tier Guilds Seeking Cooperation!

On the world channel, players were talking about clearing the Dragon’s Lair Dungeon just a moment ago.

Many people wanted to watch the replay of Jiang Bai’s battle.

However, another announcement appeared.

Many people did not notice the mention of midnight descending in this announcement.

After all, the system did not specifically emphasize it, so they treated it as being at night.

However, if they knew that midnight’s arrival meant that the demonic beasts were invading the territory, then they would have been scared sh*tless by now!

At this moment, the players were discussing the guild training grounds.

A player asked, “The guild training grounds will be open at night, but I haven’t joined a guild yet. What should I do?”

Another player replied, “What else can you do? Quickly apply to join any guild. Even if it’s a low-tier guild, it is still better than not being in one!”

Someone said, “It’s an additional channel to obtain EXP. All of you should hurry up and take action. In any case, I’ve already applied to the Hidden Dragon Guild. I’m looking forward to being selected!”

Another person chipped in, “I’ve applied to the Hidden Dragon Guild as well, but I’ve never received a response from them. Up until now, the Hidden Dragon Guild only has two members. Yet, they’ve always ranked first. It’s truly frustrating!”

A player shared, “I see that the Grand Sea Guild’s ranking has slowly risen. Now, it’s already in fifth place. It can be said that the power of financial backing is truly formidable! Previously, they suffered heavy losses due to besieging Maise the God. Now, they’re actually making a comeback gradually!”

“So what if the Grand Sea Guild has financial backing? The Xilong Guild and the Cloud Dynasty Guild already rank second and third!”

“As you can imagine, the Xilong Guild and the Cloud Dynasty Guild also have financial backing, and they are growing rapidly. No matter what the Grand Sea Guild does next, it will be difficult for them to surpass these two guilds, not to mention surpassing the Hidden Dragon Guild!”

“I don’t know which guild to choose. Anyway, these top five guilds will surely reject my application!”

The conversation continued.

The players chatted with each other, feeling a little depressed.

After all, they were ordinary players. It would be quite difficult for them to enter the top five guilds.

However, right then, as though it had been premeditated, a lot of news about middle-tier guilds appeared on the world channel.

“Our Sloan Guild is seeking cooperation with the Hidden Dragon Guild. In order to show our respect to Maise the God, we will set up a stall in the square and offer up everything to him!”

“Our Jack Guild seeks cooperation with the Hidden Dragon Guild. We have set up a stall in the square. Everything sold in the stall is for the Hidden Dragon Guild and Maise the God!”

“Our Steel Guild also wishes to cooperate with the Hidden Dragon Guild. These 50,000 gold coins are just a small token of our sincerity. Please don’t refuse, Maise the God! At the same time, we will set up a stall in the square!”

More and more declarations popped up.

A dozen or so middle-tier guilds immediately sent out a series of messages.

The content was roughly the same. They wanted to seek an opportunity to cooperate with the Hidden Dragon Guild.

After all, not every guild was like the Grand Sea Guild which was thinking of going against Maise the God and then snatching away all of his equipment and familiars.

In the eyes of these middle-tier guilds, cooperating with the strong guilds was the best choice.

Among these middle-tier guilds, some were professional gamer teams in real life while others were middle class players.

As long as the Hidden Dragon Guild was willing to cooperate, they were willing to make a huge sacrifice and give all the resources that their guild currently had to Maise the God and the Hidden Dragon Guild for free.

The news that these middle-tier guilds released immediately shocked all the players in the entire server.

Someone exclaimed, “F*ck! I’m a member of the Steel Guild. I just donated a piece of silver equipment. Wouldn’t I be giving it to Maise the God for free? I mean to say that my donation is worthwhile! He is my idol. I don’t even have the chance to give it to him personally!”

Another player said, “What a coincidence! I’m a member of Jack Guild. The silver ring I donated to my guild may be among the gifts given to the Hidden Dragon Guild.”

A player raised their concern, saying, “Isn’t anyone suspicious? Why did these guilds release this news at the same time?”

“What’s so strange about that? They just want to cooperate with the Hidden Dragon Guild. If I could create a guild, I would definitely want to cooperate with the number one Hidden Dragon Guild!”

“I think these guilds might have planned it in secret. There is strength in numbers. This way, Maise the God would notice them. That’s why they chose to release the news at the same time.”

A player suddenly asked, “Brothers, does anyone know the coordinates of the square? How is it that I didn’t know of such a place!”

“That’s the Neutral Square. You can head to the teleportation point nearby and teleport there!”

“Say no more. I’ll take my leave first!”

“I look forward to meeting all of you in the Neutral Square!”

The players were busy exchanging intel.

As the commotion died down, many players began to move towards the teleportation point.

Every town had a small teleportation point.

However, players could not use them to teleport directly to other kingdoms.

After all, they were not yet qualified to do so. They might die on the spot if they entered kingdoms deep within the sword and magic world.

Hence, this restriction could be considered as protection for the players.

However, people from the kingdoms could enter the Neutral Square through teleportation points.

Soon, people from different regions of the same kingdom found teleportation points and headed straight for the Neutral Square.

“What the f*ck? What is this place? Why is it so vast?”

Players exclaimed one after another.

This was the first time many people had entered the Neutral Square.

Moreover, there were many unopened areas and shops in this huge square.

Everyone could foresee that the square would soon be the place with the highest density of people in the entire server. Moreover, one would be able to meet people from all over the world here.

“Brothers, where is Jack Guild’s stall? Can you bring me there!”

“I want to find the Steel Guild’s stall!”

“Everyone, don’t you want to know if Maise the God has come to the Neutral Square?”

Someone sighed a breath of relief, saying, “Fortunately, players are invincible here and cannot be harmed. Otherwise, I think many people will secretly think of attacking other players.”

In this neutral area, because they were invincible, they could spar with different classes.

However, for now, everyone was looking for the area where the stalls were set up. As for the technical sparring, they didn’t care about it at all.

There were also some exorcists and occult wizards who were fighting at the side, continuously casting spells, creating a dazzling scene.

There were also some orcs who appeared. They weren’t human-shaped and they had explosive strength attributes in the early stages. Even their heights were much higher than that of humans.

Beside them, there was a petite player with the ID ‘Xiaoxiao’. Her real name was Xiao Rongyu, and she chose the assassin class.

No one would have thought that a delicate girl would actually choose the assassin class.

However, if Jiang Bai were here, he would realize that Xiao Rongyu was the Assassin Empress in his previous life and her name shook the world. Beside Xiao Rongyu stood another girl who was her best friend.

Her best friend said, “This Neutral Square is really lively!”

Xiao Rongyu shook her head. She did not care about the crowd in the square. Instead, she asked curiously, “Is the Maise the God here?”
