Chapter 38 - The Plight of the Golden Lion

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The Golden Lion Guild had failed.

Actually, everyone had been prepared for this. After all, it was almost impossible to replicate Su Fan’s success.

Therefore, when everyone heard that the Golden Lion Guild had failed, no one paid too much attention to it.

The Golden Lion was a famous guild in the hearts of the players. This time, they had gone to raid the Goblin Cave with great fanfare, but in the end, they had failed.

They were bound to become the laughingstock of many people.

The Golden Lion Guild had lost its reputation. Within a day, 10% of its members had left the guild.

Meanwhile, the other guilds that had hostile relations with the Golden Lion had also chosen to stab them in the back.

They began to spread the news of the Golden Lion Guild’s failure throughout the game. They also tried to use this opportunity to thoroughly suppress the Golden Lion Guild and turn it into a small guild. They even tried to chase it out of The Domain of Gods!

It could be said that because of Su Fan, a large guild in the game was in a huge crisis.

This was something that many large guilds could not achieve even if they tried their best.

However, Su Fan had easily accomplished it. In fact, Su Fan had not even done it on purpose.

It was only because of the little influence that Su Fan had left behind after clearing the dungeon.

In front of the Golden Lion Guild in Kellett City.

A golden lion statue faced the sky and let out a silent roar. Every strand of hair, without a trace of texture, was made as if it was real. Just standing in front of this statue, one could feel the majesty of a king.

It was as if this golden lion could come back to life at any time and attack all the arrogant people who dared to step into its territory.

This was the symbol of the Golden Lion Guild. However, due to the lack of maintenance, this symbol had been covered in dust. It had completely lost its previous dignity.

The players responsible for maintaining this statue had already left the guild.

Hence, no one had come to maintain this statue at all.

Within the guild.

There were still many people who chose to remain in the guild, and they were not affected by the outside world.

However, each one of them only sat in the guild with their heads lowered, not saying a word. They looked very dejected.

All of them were elites in the guild, and they were also the participants in this raid on the Goblin Cave. At the same time, they were also the ones who had suffered the heaviest blow.

The failure of the Goblin Cave raid was not a big deal.

However, the impact of the failed raid had become a heavy burden. It was mercilessly placed on them, making it difficult for them to let go of it.

They all felt that it was because they had not worked hard enough that they had failed.

Andres did not blame them, he even took the initiative to admit that it was all because of his leadership.

But the more he did that, the more uncomfortable they felt. They felt that everything was all their fault!

Therefore, the entire guild fell into a solemn silence, and nobody spoke.

They were all waiting on the second floor of the guild. Andres and the others had come up with a feasible plan to deal with this matter.

“Guild Leader, although most of the people who have left the guild are new members who have just joined the guild and are not core members, a portion of the old people are also planning to leave. If this continues, I’m afraid that a large number of members will be lost.”

“Moreover, the Sword of Dawn, the Curses Association, and the Royal Alliance are also secretly contacting some of our core members in an attempt to poach them away.”

Pena placed a report in front of Andres. The report was densely filled with the IDs of many players. These were all people who had left the Golden Lion Guild and had connections with other large guilds.

Looking at it, there were at least thousands of people.

If all these people were lost, even if the Golden Lion Guild was an old guild, it would not be able to handle it.

“What should we do?”

Pena’s question immediately gave Andres a headache.

“How can this be? Why didn’t the Goblin Leader attack Su Fan, but attack me instead?”

Andres gritted his teeth and reached out to grab his hair, rubbing it continuously.

His originally dignified and neat hair immediately became a bird’s nest, it was messy.

Just like Andres’s current mood, it was filled with annoyance and complexity.

“Perhaps Su Fan has a method that we don’t know about? Moreover, the things that Su Fan revealed during the live broadcast are only a small part of it. There are many things that we don’t know about. It’s very normal.”

Regarding Andres’s doubt, Pena said it calmly.

Furthermore, Pena seemed to know more about these things than Andres. Her words were filled with doubt towards Su Fan.

“You mean that Su Fan left out some crucial parts?”

Andres raised his head at this time. He looked at Pena with a serious expression as if he was thinking about the possibility in Pena’s words.

“I’m not sure, but there is a certain possibility.”

Pena nodded with a serious expression, and then let out a long sigh.

“It’s meaningless to talk about this now. Even if we get the secret from Su Fan now, it’s useless.”

“Now we have failed. Even if we can succeed through Su Fan in the future, it won’t change the consequences of our failure this time.”

When Andres heard Pena’s words, he was also silent.

He also understood this point.

This was similar to how most people would only remember that the world’s highest peak was Mount Qomolangma, but they didn’t care about the name of the second peak? It was the same reason.

Because the failure of the Golden Lion had already been known by everyone. Even if the Golden Lion succeeded later, no one would care!

“Maybe we can find a way through Su Fan?”

Suddenly, Andres looked up at Pena with a serious face. His brown eyes lit up like pearls in the night.

“What do you mean?”

Pena looked at Andres with a puzzled face. She didn’t understand what Andres meant.

“I remember that he is also Level 10. Plus, he cleared the Goblin Cave by himself. He should be Level 13 now, right?”

“Yes.”

Pena looked at the information about Su Fan in her hands and nodded.

But she still did not know what Andres was trying to do.

“You can change classes when you reach Level 13.”

Andres’s words immediately made Pena tremble. She finally understood what Andres was trying to do.

“Let’s go and talk to Su Fan about this.”

Andres was a man of action, so after he understood this, he immediately took action..
