Chapter 54 Demon Robe (1/2)
Everyone had their difficulties.
Lin Jie could not just tell them that he was reborn and his family would be destroyed in 7 years. In order to stop such a thing from happening again, he would need a powerful group and Brotherhood was part of it.
The story was scary enough to hear, and let alone believing it.
Maybe everyone would think that he was crazy.
”I'm willing to give half of the holdings I have in Brotherhood to you,” said Lin Jie seriously. ”That is to say the absolute power to control the stocks lies within our hand, together.”
Netherblue smiled gently and said, ”I'm not interested in your stocks. I just want my team…” She looked at Qiu Yuan, then Water and shook her head, losing her confidence in her voice. ”… to emerge as the top.”
Water put his hand around Netherblue and looked up at Lin Jie, then lowered it again. Finally, he summoned up his courage and said, ”Expert bro, it was very selfish of you this time. Can't you tell what Sister Netherblue is thinking? The reason why she gave the second authority to you is that you will be our leader in the future.”
”All she wanted was for the team to stand in front of all the players again before changing the name!”
Water finished speaking excitedly. He looked away from Lin Jie and shrugged his shoulder. ”Anyway, I know what she is thinking, and since you are better than me, I thought you knew it too.”
Lin Jie was rendered speechless. He was indeed selfish this time and did not comply with the agreement. But…
”I need fame and reputation, I need Brotherhood to grow.” Lin Jie looked at the helmet in his hand and laughed bitterly. ”I also do not wish to use you. But sometimes, I just have to make a choice. Log into the game, that's the choice I made. I need to grow, that's the choice I made too.”
”I'm sorry! I have my difficulties. Please trust me again if possible! Trust me, we'll keep a low-profile for now, and we will reach the top eventually. We will be among the top players and be cheered by all others!”
After Lin Jie was done, he gave them a 90-degree bow!
Netherblue, Qiu Yuan, Water, and Innocent Killer were all shocked instantly. They had never seen the invincible Fu Sheng at such state, expressing himself truthfully like that. All their grudges against him were all gone by his apologies.
”Maybe only such leaders could bring us to the top of the game!” That was the thought in everyone's mind at that moment.
Everyone stood there for a long time.
The next day…
”Thank you.” Lin Jie sent a message to everyone.
When messaging Netherblue, he added on the strategy for the first clearing of the expert-level of Castle Wood, as well as lots of potions and items.
Qiu Yuan replied quickly, ”I'll forgive you this time. I'm drinking pure glutinous wine with Sister Netherblue. It tastes fantastic! I'll treat you next time. Talk to you later, you can go play with the sand now.” Lin Jie was speechless as he touched his own nose.
Zheng Ziliang replied too, saying, ”Wow Jie! The whole-hearted speech was not bad just now. I almost cried. Teach me, and I can go flirt around with girls. They will surely fall for me.”
Lin Jie smiled and replied, ”Lol, go away.”
”By the way, help me get some equipment. I'm so pathetic now in the team that I cannot do anything.” Zheng Ziliang understood Lin Jie and would not mention anything about yesterday.
Lin Jie thought for a while and sent him a teleportation scroll. That was the scroll to Dark Monastery. Zheng Ziliang needed another half Dark Contract set. If the set was completed, it would be comparable to the set dropped in Castle Wood. Since there were more of Werewolves in the castle, most of the dropped items were for Warriors and Bandits.
After Lin Jie settling his studd, he straightened his wolf-teethed helmet. The wolf head covered his facial features. Half of his eyes were hidden by the wolf mouth. The sharp teeth were left outside on purpose as though he was showing off. Lin Jie looked very powerful with the armor. The advantage of heavy armor was that even bronze equipment could arm one like Transformers.
After Brotherhood got the first clear of Castle Wood…
Lin Jie received a huge shock when he entered the channel for Brotherhood.
The members of Brotherhood had grown rapidly in just a few hours. The achievements of the Brotherhood were obvious to all, and the ”cooperation” of the Kingdom of Glory had attracted countless people's attention to this mysterious organization.
Posts that were guessing the channel number had almost dominated the entire forum, and the numbers were strange. Finally, the channel number 90090 had been made public, and the players who had joined Brotherhood were proud to publicize it everywhere. It directly caused a grand occasion. In this regard, Lin Jie refused no one and accepted all!
The mission board was classified into different boards based on values, difficulties, and rewards. The top mission was ”Hunt down the leader of Brotherhood.”
Mission details: Identify and kill the leader of the Brotherhood! Identify and be rewarded with 10,000$! One kill rewards 100,000$! Disbandment of Brotherhood, award: 1.000.0000$!
Lin Jie raised his eyebrows. ”Good fellow! Who is so rich?”
Channels, unlike guilds, could not be disbanded once they were established! Otherwise, Lin Jie would like to take this task; disband, rebuild, disband, rebuild… Who would still play the game?
As a leader, Lin Jie had the authority to delete the mission. But he did not do so for a simple reason: Brotherhood was an organization for loners, and it did not need authoritarianism but pure justice! If the mission was deleted just because it involved him, the Brotherhood was not going to survive. He might as well go back home and farm.
Other missions were hanging at the side----[Add and contact the leader of Brotherhood], together with it was his contact number. In the eyes of wise players, Brotherhood was a huge sheep waiting to be slaughtered.
