Meng Jingtian wasn’t annoyed to hear this. Giggling, he confessed, “You guessed right! It’s exactly because my luck was good!”

Mo Hongyi was speechless. This rascal was a lost cause!

All she could do was angrily storm away and refuse to respond.

“I say, can the two of you stop flirting? Hurry and kill these monsters!” Cheng Xiaojin stopped and pointed ahead.

“So many!” The other group members stared in shock at the number of bandits wandering the camp.

After climbing up a stone staircase built by the bandits, they had arrived in front of Cool Breeze Camp, and the number of bandits left them fearful.

The sight of all those mobs with red names drained them of their courage. Just taking down the sentries had taken some effort. If all these mobs attacked them at once, Cheng Xiaojin would instantly be wiped out.

Meng Jingtian stood in front of the camp for a few moments before making a baffling statement. “Don’t fight! I’ll go in and take a look, see if I can’t pull out the boss!”

“How are you getting in? There’s a mob every three steps! Won’t you get attacked by all of them the moment you step through the gate?” one of the group members questioned.

The group members were all rather confident in Meng Jingtian’s strength after he took care of those two sentries, but his words were still unbelievable. It was a complete fairytale!

“That’s right! And won’t a boss have an even higher Attack? You’ll be dead in one or two hits, and you still need to get past all the mobs. How will you pull him? Don’t tell me that you can tank as well as heal!” Cheng Xiaojin said with a strange look at Meng Jingtian.

“Everyone, just trust in Brother Tian this once. In any case, it’s not like you’re the one going! Everything is possible with our Brother Tian!” Although Cai Minghou had also been shocked to hear Meng Jingtian make this proposal at first, once he regained his senses, he chose without hesitation to speak up for him.

“The problem is that this just isn’t possible, okay?” one of the group members shot back.

“Just wait and see!” Ignoring their argument, Meng Jingtian strode into the camp.

“Hey… is this guy an idiot?” a surprised Mo Hongyi whispered. She had reached out to stop him, even called out, but in the end, she decided to drop the matter.

But for some reason, even though she was so sure that Meng Jingtian would be instantly killed the moment he walked into the camp, why did she feel a slight hint of anticipation?

The other group members could only watch as Meng Jingtian walked into the camp.

“Holy shit!” Even when Meng Jingtian walked into the center of the camp, that pile of bandits never attacked him, causing the group members to cry out in unison.

“What’s going on? Can those bandits not see him?”

“A stealth skill?”

“No! Look at that elite mob! That elite mob is actually talking with him!”

The nine other group members excitedly chattered as they waited outside the camp.

“What conversation? Look closely! Oh my god! That elite bandit is clearly guiding him!” Cheng Xiaojin slapped his forehead, not daring to believe his eyes.

The other group members fell into disarray, beginning to wonder if they were dreaming. Why was a mob with a red name talking to a player? Was Meng Jingtian playing the same game they were?

As his group members were beginning to doubt themselves, Meng Jingtian was led by this elite bandit to the mountain camp’s conference hall.

Seated at the head of the long conference table was a muscular man with a thick beard, his body exuding a fierce energy.

Meng Jingtian threw over a Divine Examination and confirmed that this was their mission target: the boss of Cool Breeze Camp, Ma Fangxing.

Ma Fangxing (Silver Boss): The boss of Cool Breeze Camp. Once a minor general serving the Black Dragon Empire on the frontier, he made a miscalculation in battle. As he was the sole survivor and had been branded with the crime of desertion, he had no other choice but to become a bandit.

Level: 25

HP: 500000

Skills: Horse Cleaver, Sky Breaker, Chaotic Saber Art…

Ma Fangxing’s Friendliness to Meng Jingtian was at 65, and when he saw Meng Jingtian, he froze, and then he respectfully bowed.

Next to Ma Fangxing was a player. The two of them had apparently been discussing something.

Name: Long Yuqian

Level: 20

Race: Human Race

Talent: Vigorous (Additional 5% Agility)

Starting Skills: Cloud-Reaching Archery, Strength Boost, Recovery

Identity: First Young Master of the Golden Goose Mercenary Company

Meng Jingtian narrowed his eyes. This was the player who had framed Little Hou?

Long Yuqian was shocked to see Meng Jingtian swagger in, and he looked confusedly at Ma Fangxing.

It was only because he had received a hidden mission that he was able to sit here safe and sound.

“I have something to speak about with Boss Ma. You…” Meng Jingtian was much more straightforward, speaking to Long Yuqian.

“You should go back to spawn!”

“Who the hell are you? So cocky?” The corner of Long Yuqian’s mouth twitched as he glared at Meng Jingtian.

This guy was looking down on him too much!

“Cocky?” Meng Jingtian faintly smiled. “When you’re strong enough, what seems like ‘cocky’ in the eyes of others is just normal!”

He used Divine Punishment on Long Yuqian. This guy had locked Cai Minghou up for an entire day and was an enemy. Was there anything that they needed to say to each other?

“Great God!” Ma Fangxing began to rise from his seat, trying to stop him.

Long Yuqian also immediately tried to dodge, but the white lightning bolt followed him like a guided missile and swerved before crashing onto his head.

“-7222”

With one skill, Long Yuqian was wiped out.

“‘Great God’? Who the hell was that guy?” At the spawn point, Long Yuqian muttered to himself, a strange expression on his face. He was sure that he heard that NPC call that player ‘Great God’ right before he died!

“Ding! Ma Fangxing’s Friendliness – 5, Awe + 5.”

The notification Meng Jingtian received took him by surprise. So there was also something called Awe!

“Boss Ma, yes?” Meng Jingtian looked at Ma Fangxing and smiled. “It’s like this. When this god was traveling by Dawn Moon Lake, he accidentally dropped his divine weapon inside. This god does not like water very much, but then he saw this camp of yours. Please come and help me fish up my lost item.”

Ma Fangxing’s mouth twitched, but he did not dare to question a god like Meng Jingtian. He could only say, “I do not dare to defy a divine edict. This lowly person will gather my brothers and help you fish up your item.”

“There’s no need! You alone is enough, since Dawn Moon Lake isn’t big. In any case, if you came over with a pack of people, wouldn’t everyone know about this god’s mistake?”

Of course, Meng Jingtian hastily refused. At the same time, he sent Cai Minghou a message telling him to take the group to Dawn Moon Lake. They needed to be away from the camp so as to prevent Ma Fangxing from calling over his ‘brothers’.

A hint of hesitation appeared in Ma Fangxing’s eyes. Even though he was only a silver boss, he was rather intelligent and found this request very fishy.
