The news that the three experts, Codename Lone Wolf, Ophadi Wantless, and Domestic Fat Cattle, were peddling high-grade items along a commoners street spread like wildfire within City of Light, Sunshine City, and a dozen other cities under 30 minutes. Teleportation glimmers shone as a large number of players arrived.

Fat Cattle and Wantless were still alright as they were Mages. Despite their rapid farming speed, the monsters levels were usually around their respective levels. However, the situation was drastically different for Lin Jie, who had been mass-farming countless Enhanced Elites and dueling high-level Bosses alone. Thus, he had collected twice the amount of loot as compared to the other two. This also made his merchandise the hardest to sell, as it was beyond the average levels of players currently. Many of the players also lacked the initiative to prepare for their futures.

In actual fact, when the mainstream players would reach about Level 40, Lin Jies items would be highly popular! Of course, only their popularity but not the price would rise.

While the three of them were peddling enthusiastically, a teasing voice sounded. Yo, Brother Lone Wolf, long time no see. Did you miss me?

Lin Jie stood up instantly! The Silver-Feathered Eagle shot out and locked its target on a person!

The man was clad in tattered clothing while holding a wooden sword in hand. He looked just like a poor and dirty beggar that had been living in those plague-infected villages.

However, his arrival caused Lin Jies heart to sink. This man was the slavery boss that had been rumored to rise againBaili Xuanyuan! However, why did he look like that now? Moreover, how dares he still strut into the City of Light despite being on the wanted list after his failed invasion?

Why? Do you wonder why I am able to appear here? A refined smile grew on Baili Xuanyuans dirty face, which only seemed contrasting, as he spoke. Since the Simon Pirates failed business plan, a Level 50 Great Druid has been wreaking havoc in the City of Elves, and that destroyed all my businesses. Countless efforts destroyed just like that. My losses are innumerable. Hence, I could only seek the Holy Church and the Empires help by spending a fortune in exchange to be a free man again. This is all your fault.

Since Baili Xuanyuans slave trade had been exposed and destroyed, the Great Druid that had been rescued by Lin Jie had turned insane due to her sisters death. She had gathered evidence on Baili Xuanyuan selling slaves through all types of means and submitted it to the Parliament. After that, the Parliament had encircled Baili Xuanyuans village and cast a curse. They had cursed Baili Xuanyuan to suffer from endless pursuit as long as he was within the City of Elves!

This was out of Lin Jies expectations.

Baili Xuanyuan was extremely ruthless! He had given up the accumulated equipment and ranks for freedom! He had come to understand that nothing in the game was constant, and spending over a month in jail was equivalent to the doom of all his businesses!

Lin Jie scoffed. Hehe, I dont deserve your compliments. Amongst so many players, you are the only perverse person thats able to enslave and traffic NPCs. Disregarding the rest, you must have made a ton of money from one Flying-Wing Cargo Ship, and thats probably an understatement. You have already earned two or three ships worth, right? Loss is nothing to you, dont let me laugh my head off.

Baili Xuanyuans eyebrows rose as he did not expect Lin Jie to be so knowledgeable about the slavery profits. He shook his head and said, That aside, we are already old enemies. To be honest, I still regard you with some respect. My goal for this trip is very simple, I am just here to purchase some items and increase my abilities. Brother Lone Wolf, since you are here to do business, I believe that you wont reject a big customer like myself?

Lin Jie tossed Baili Xuanyuan an odd look. The items that he was selling were around Level 35 40, which was above average. Otherwise, he wouldnt have had no business until now.

Baili Xuanyuan wants to purchase these high-grade items in bulk? Could it be that his guild members are all Level 40?

Impossible!

Based on Lin Jies knowledge on Baili Xuanyuan, if there was such great power in the guild, word would have spread, and havoc would have been wrecked.

Why? Brother Lone Wolf, are you afraid of me increasing my abilities? said Baili Xuanyuan jokingly. Brother, its normal to be cautious. How about this, I offer twice the price. I want the high-grade Mage equipment. If you guys join Mage Heavens, I will offer 10 times the price to purchase your loots, he added magnanimously.

10 times the price! Silver equipment can be sold for the same price as Gold?

Baili Xuanyuan, I heard of him before. He is the Chairman of Mage Heaven! He was the one that launched the attack to take control of City of Light, but failed in the end.

He went missing after the failed attack, and now he is an unkempt grade 0. I dont believe he has much money!

Are you dumb? He is poor? How would he dare to buy all the equipment if he was poor?

Everyone was both shocked and tempted by Baili Xuanyuans tyrannic aura. Hence, someone asked, Brother, if I were to join the guild, what benefits would I receive?

Baili Xuanyuan smiled slightly. The price of all loots will be twice that of Sky Provisions Shop! Furthermore, everyone that joins will receive a high-grade Silver item as a welcome gift!

Everyone was shocked.

Twice the price! This meant that as long as one joined the guild, the cash income every month would be of a significant amount! Instantly, over a dozen players joined the guild, and Baili Xuanyuan issued out an equal amount of Level 25 Silver equipment at the same time. The heat grew in the audiences eyes.

Lin Jie regarded Baili Xuanyuans recruitment coldly. Wantless and Fat Cattle were not too happy either. They glared hatefully at the fellow that had stolen the attention they originally had.

Domestic Fat Cattle grinned and said, Acquisition at 10 times the price?

Of course! Baili Xuanyuan let out a smile.

Okay, I will join! This is the Freeze Set, plus a few other items that are of no use to me. You can purchase them all! said Fat Cattle as he gestured.

Of course, I always treat my brothers sincerely and generously. Baili Xuanyuan revealed gold coins, which were piled into a small hill, and proceeded with the deal.

That was a total of 8,000 gold coins!

Domestic Fat Cattle was a Fire Mage, and coupled with the Dark Gold fragments, his farming rate was insanely high. It was no surprise that his loots were worth 800 coins, and 10 times of that was 8,000 coins!

Okay, thanks. Domestic Fat Cattle held the coins, grinned, and said, Are there any benefits since an expert such as myself joined the guild?

Of course! Baili Xuanyuan replied thoughtfully, Whats more enticing to experts than leveling up? Mage Heavens will provide with 10 expert Warriors daily for training.

Ding~

Player Domestic Fat Cattle has left the guild.

Baili Xuanyuan was stunned.

I didnt join to be tortured! You didnt even give me any chicks, and yet you are sending people to torture me? What a lousy guild. Domestic Fat Cattle scoffed and stuffed his coins into his pocket.

I finally had the chance to shine in front of a pretty girl! I will disregard the fact the Lone Wolf stole my limelight, but even a rookie like you is doing that as well? I am gonna scam you! he thought.

This train of thought held high similarity to a certain Ophadi

I want to join, said Wantless without much emotion, which was a drastic difference from Domestic Fat Cattle. His indifferent aura made him look like an expert.

Baili Xuanyuan relaxed as he thought that that expert should be more reliable. Ophadi Wantlesss loot quantity might not be comparable to Fat Cattle, however, it took a total of 13,000 gold coins to acquire all of them.

When Ophadi received the sum of money, surprise still flickered in his eyes. He was amongst the top few most influential players. It was already incredible if one months worth of equipment could be sold for 1,300 gold coins, which was equivalent to tens of thousands of cash. Now that he had met such a foolish spendthrift, his profit was tenfold.

Wantless blinked and asked, I should have some benefits from joining the guild, right?

Of course! Baili Xuanyuan felt light-hearted as he replied hatefully, 20 beauties of your choice from the front desk, you can even have them in real life!

Ding~

Player Wantless has left the guild.

Ophadi raised his eyelids. I am here to improve my abilities! A guild with only pretty girls and money, what use is that to me?

Baili Xuanyuan finally understood that these two were playing with him. His heart was bleeding with the monetary loss! Although he had gained several high-grade items, that had cost him around 20,000 gold coins!

Lin Jie walked toward Baili Xuanyuan slowly and grinned. Chairman

Lone Wolf! Baili Xuanyuan noticed Lin Jies facial expression and retreated several steps as though someone stepped on a cats tail. Dont go overboard!

Lin Jie scratched his head and said in an innocent tone, I didnt bully you, how can you lie like that?

Enough! I came to you with sincerity, but you guys treated me like dirt. We have nothing more to discuss! I will purchase these items with the market price, do you dare to deal? Since Baili Xuanyuans recruitment techniques did not succeed, he resorted to radicalism.

Nope. Lin Jie nodded sincerely.

Baili Xuanyuan was helpless as he faced such a stubborn opponent but still could not hide his greed as he glanced at the pile of loots. He needed a large quantity of Level 40 items to complete a critical mission. However, how many players could get their hands on Level 40 equipment in the New Age? Only monsters above Level 45 could drop Level 40 equipment, making those items ultra-rare.

Baili Xuanyuan had gone around to bulk-purchase those items, but the amount he had acquired in one week was less than 1/3 of Lin Jies. That was why he had still been willing to play along with Domestic Fat Cattle and Wantless at the start, even though he had a vague feeling that they had been playing him. It might seem that it was not worth it to purchase the items at 10 times the market value, but the reward he would receive from completing the mission was multifold as compared to that.

He had to get those items!

Ten times! Since the situation had reached this stage, Baili Xuanyuans ruthlessness showed its face. Wasnt it just money? Even if he suffered bleeding losses, it was still okay. As long as he could the Level 40 items, everything would be smooth from then on!

Lin Jies eyes rolled, but a playful smile grew.

Behind Baili Xuanyuan, the number of solo players that wanted to join Mage Heavens grew. After all, the ultimate goal of most of the players, apart from enjoying life, was to earn.

Amongst them were many solo players, such as Dragon Slayer Knight and Sardine, that Lin Jie had high expectations of. They were on the fence and couldnt make a decision. Although they held the Brotherhood in high regard, pure profit was in front of their eyes. They could also be like the previous two Mages, who had joined the guild just to sell their equipment, and then quit, couldnt they?

Chairman Xuanyuan is so generous with his money. However, the City of Light is still Brotherhoods territory. It is understandable that other guilds such as Triumphant Midnight and Hunters Guild are recruiting, but you tried to use us and mass recruit today. Its too much, said Lin Jie arrogantly and glanced at the audience. You are too naive if you think that you can use these Silver items and empty words to rope in the City of Lights players, he added.

A tossed stone could raise 1,000 ripples! Several players that had joined the guild were red with embarrassment, but several more were waiting for Lone Wolfs next move silently.

What did he want to do?

Lin Jie waved his right hand, and he bellowed, Blue, come to me now!

Lin Jies stall was only a few meters away from the Blacksmiths Shop. Thus, after his voice sounded, Master Blue had already rushed over with his apprentices carrying the burner and spinel. Soon, he stood respectively in front of Lin Jie.

Oh my god! Blue is the only Sub-Legendary Blacksmith amongst the hundreds of Blacksmith Shops! He is receiving orders from Lone Wolf?!

The previous time when I went to craft equipment, I had to wait for 4 hours. How can the difference in treatment be so great?

The players began murmuring as they were shocked by Lone Wolfs abilities.

Lin Jie glanced at Baili Xuanyuan. This fella went missing for so long to accumulate wealth? He must have a motive for bulk-purchasing all these Level 40 items.

Mage Heavens was the Three Alliances face. If Lin Jie did not act, they would recruit half of the players from the City of Light. Providing support for the enemy was something Lin Jie could not do.

He had to suppress them!

Blue, melt all these items and give them to our fellow brothers.

Lin Jies voice instantly silenced the noisy crowd!
