Chapter 28 - The First Member of the Guild

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

Outside the valley dungeon.

The team that led by Scarlet Rose came out once again. After half a day of attacking and changing their strategy, they had finally seen the first dungeon’s boss, the [ Two-headed Demonic Wolf ]. However, after just a glance, they did not even see its attributes, the Two-headed Demonic Wolf’s [ Flaming Spear ] had wiped out the entire team.

Scarlet Rose walked at the very front of the group. As she looked at the scenery in the valley, she couldn’t help but rub her eyes, tears almost falling from her eyes.

Perhaps she really should have listened to Heavenly Cloud’s words and focused on training their skills. After that, they would come back to raid this dungeon.

She couldn’t remember how many times she had raided this dungeon, but she had never won.

The dungeon’s name was [ Devil Dragon’s Fury ]. The final boss definitely had something to do with dragons. Yet, they had fallen in front of the Two-headed Demonic Wolf. After trying ten more times, they still couldn’t defeat it.

This wasn’t a mistake in strategy or tactics. Rather, it was because they simply weren’t strong enough.

Scarlet Rose sighed. Just as she was about to say something to boost her guild members’ confidence, she suddenly saw the loudspeakers that were spamming crazily in the novice village’s chat room.

Among the loudspeakers, she clicked on [ Heavenly Cloud ].

After reading through all of them, a glimmer of hope rose in her heart.

If they weren’t strong enough, what would happen if Heavenly Cloud raided the dungeon?

“Heavenly Cloud, can you guarantee that you’ll get the first clear?” Scarlet Rose sent a friend message.

200,000 gold wasn’t that hard to come by.

“Of course, I mean haven’t you known my strength?” Su Jin quickly replied.

“Alright, then I want four slots. I’ll give you 100,000 gold coins for each slot, which is 400,000 gold coins.” Scarlet Rose sent the message.

After thinking for a moment, she added, “However, I have a request. You have to join [ Rosette Guild ] temporarily. This way, Rosette Guild will be able to obtain the guild’s rewards. Moreover, the equipment, materials, and skill books that drop from the dungeon will also belong to us. After all, we spent 400,000 gold.”

400,000 gold coins was enough to buy a luxury car.

Scarlet Rose felt that her request was very reasonable.

“No, the guild reward for this first clear belongs to [ Dark Moon ]. If you want to follow me, you can temporarily join [ Dark Moon ].” Su Jin rejected bluntly.

“Moreover, the gold coins, equipment, materials, and skill books that drop from the dungeon are all mine. You guys don’t have any share.”

“I’ll do as I say. 50,000 gold coins for a slot, I won’t accept anything more than that.”

Su Jin explained the rules very clearly to prevent them from being confused after the event.

On the surface, this was a normal-difficulty dungeon, but in reality, it was a high-difficulty dungeon. Su Jin had his own rules. The first clear of a dungeon would drop many good items. He couldn’t give away the benefits just because the other party was a beauty.

Just like how the other party was thinking about her guild at the crucial moment.

Any item in a high-difficulty dungeon could be sold for more than 50,000 gold coins, so how could he let it go?

Scarlet Rose looked at the reply and didn’t say anything for a long time. She felt very aggrieved.

This Heavenly Cloud was really greedy. However, she couldn’t bear to give up the first clear reward, so she said, “Heavenly Cloud, our Rosette Guild needs to consider it carefully.”

“Then hurry up. If the party is full, don’t say that I won’t take you.”

Scarlet Rose replied, “Tch, out of the four big guilds in the novice village, other than our Rosette Guild, which other big guild would be willing to spend 50,000 gold coins to buy a slot from you? Do solo players have that kind of money?”

After replying, Scarlet Rose fell silent because Su Jin didn’t reply.

She planned to wait a little longer and bargained with Su Jin for a lower price. Even if she couldn’t lower the price, she had to fight for more rewards.

…

The truth was just as Scarlet Rose had guessed.

Su Jin’s loudspeaker had been playing for a long time, but no one had privately messaged him. Guilds like Tyrant Guild and Greed Wolf Guild wanted to kill him, so how could they still give him money?

Even if an ordinary solo player wanted to join a group, they couldn’t afford 50,000 gold coins.

Su Jin wasn’t in a hurry. The worst-case scenario, he could just go alone and think of it as making less money.

Suddenly, at this moment, the personal friend request column lit up.

“Player [ Golden Tycoon ] requests to add you as a friend. Attached message: Boss, I want to join your party, add me as a friend.”

“Eh, there’s actually a solo player want to join?” Su Jin was slightly surprised and decisively accepted the friend request.

“Hello, boss, I want to follow the team to the dungeon.” After receiving the friend request, Golden Tycoon said very directly.

“But my skill is mediocre, and I’m not clear about many things. I won’t be able to put much effort into the dungeon. I’ll add another 50,000 gold coins. Boss, when you’re free in the future, can you carry me along?”

When Su Jin saw this, he immediately understood.

In reality, this “Golden Tycoon” was most likely a rich solo player. He was rich, but he was not rich enough to get in touch with the upper echelons. He only followed the general trend. Unfortunately, he didn’t have any talent and didn’t know many people, he could only become a solo player.

He was willing to pay 50,000 more, and he didn’t even make any requests.

“Sure, sure.” Su Jin compared him to Scarlet God. He had a good impression of this “Golden Tycoon”, so it wasn’t impossible to carry him when he had the chance.

Golden Tycoon asked again, “Boss, will you be able to clear the dungeon this time? I don’t have any other requests. I just want to show my face on the announcement and increase my fame.”

“No problem.”

Su Jin replied with a smile. This Golden Tycoon was really a tycoon. There was no reason for him not to agree to an additional 50,000 golden coins.

He immediately pulled the Golden Tycoon into his guild.

“Player [ Golden Tycoon ], class [ warrior ], level [ level 4], has joined [ Dark Moon Guild ].” The game notification sounded.

After reading the message, Su Jin was speechless. The server had been open for quite some time. Most of the solo players had reached level 5, but Golden Tycoon was only level 4. How did he play this game?

If this was announced in the entire server, wouldn’t it make the other guilds lose face?

He brought a level 4 player and cleared the level 10 [ Devil Dragon’s Fury ] dungeon, when the other guilds had failed.

However, that was something that other guilds should consider, and it had nothing to do with him.

After adding Golden Tycoon into the guild, Su Jin bade farewell to the village chief and walked towards the dungeon entrance outside the village.

He couldn’t make a five-man party, but they could go to the dungeon entrance to take a look.

Suddenly, the guild chat channel lit up.

“Big Brother Heavenly Cloud, there are only the two of us in this guild. It’s so empty” Golden Tycoon said.

“Yup, our guild has just been established. Right now, there are only the two of us. However, in the future, [ Dark Moon ] will definitely be the strongest guild in the “New World”. There will be no one like us!” Su Jin replied very directly.

Su Jin didn’t want to experience the things that he had been through in his previous life. After coming back to this world, he naturally had to develop his own power.

Of course, he didn’t want to create a huge guild. With hundreds of thousands of members, it would be too bloated. He wanted to create a guild that didn’t have many members but filled with elites..
