It was him…
The world really was small. Just a few days ago, he had incapacitated him in reality, and today he ran into him again in the game.
This person was, naturally, Cheng Tian in reality.
Last time, when he ate with Ye Ling, she had said that Cheng Tian had a severe concussion and didn’t know when he would wake up.
Chu Tian had spent seven days grinding monsters in the Gray Canyon. Cheng Tian should have woken up during this time and put on his helmet to play the game.
Chu Tian was quite familiar with Cheng Tian’s in-game appearance.
In his previous life, they had also teamed up and run dungeons together.
Seeing Cheng Tian enter the auction house, Chu Tian sent a message to Jian Zhi Cang Tian: “Help me arrange a few rogue brothers. I’m at the auction house in Shengjing City.”
After sending the message, Jian Zhi Cang Tian quickly replied: “Arranged. There are four rogue brothers in the city who are closest to you. They’ll be here soon. Is that enough? If not, I’ll call more over.”
“Should be enough. The guild can continue recruiting. It’s already upgraded to level four and can accommodate ten thousand people.”
“We’ve already seen that. Take a look yourself at how many people there are now,” Jian Zhi Cang Tian said.
Chu Tian opened the guild system—
【Ni Shen Alliance】
Guild Level: 4
Members: 3569/10000
Headquarters Level: 1 (Shengjing City)
Fortresses: None
Team Points: 265
Guild Funds: 1358 Gold 92 Silver 26 Copper
There were already 3569 people, and the number was still increasing. How could the recruitment speed be so fast? It had only been a little over ten minutes since he walked from the guild hall to here.
However, he thought about it. Ni Shen Alliance was currently at its peak. After the battle in the basin last time, many people had been waiting for Ni Shen Alliance to start expanding its membership.
Looking at the gradually growing guild, Chu Tian’s lips curved into a slight smile. In this life, he wanted to build a powerful empire with his own hands.
As for the guild funds, though not much, these were all accumulated bit by bit from players grinding monsters, leveling up, and players donating gold for contribution points.
Once the numbers increased, the daily guild funds would also be a considerable income.
However, this money could not be moved easily. It was the funding for the guild’s dungeon breakthroughs, team battles, and even city fortress conquests. He might even have to contribute money himself.
A guild’s strength had to be built step by step. It was currently the immunity period, and the city conquest battle was still a few months away, before the integration of real-world currency.
After the first fortress conquest battle in Tian Dao, limited-time currency would be introduced. At that time, various large and small consortiums would enter and focus their investments on guilds with fortress cities.
At that time, there would be a major reshuffle, and many guilds would change ownership.
Chu Tian was confident that he could lead Ni Shen Alliance to capture at least one fortress, and he would absolutely not accept any external investment.
While he was thinking, four rogues wearing the Ni Shen Alliance emblem approached from a distance.
Chu Tian beckoned to them, and the four walked over.
Chu Tian slightly lifted the hood of his cloak. When the four saw Chu Tian, their eyes lit up. It was actually their leader.
Jian Zhi Cang Tian had only told them before that a mission would be assigned to them at the entrance of the newly opened auction house in the city center.
Completing missions in Ni Shen Alliance would be rewarded with contribution points. Furthermore, if they died during the mission, the guild would provide compensation.
Therefore, as soon as they received the mission, the four of them hurried over.
What they didn’t expect was that the person waiting to assign the mission here was actually their leader: the Newcomer King ‘I am not a Druid.’
However, Chu Tian was unaware that he also had another nickname: God of Druids.
The god of Druids!
If Chu Tian knew, he didn’t know if he would be ashamed enough to commit suicide. He knew that the god of Druids was the moon goddess Elune, who was the sister of the Winter Queen.
Her status was even higher than that of the Titans, the creators in Tian Dao.
However, when it came to Druids among players, it was not an exaggeration to call Chu Tian a god.
“Leader! What do you need us to do?” one of the rogues asked Chu Tian.
“Follow me!” Chu Tian led the four of them into the auction house.
Standing at the entrance, he pointed to someone inside. This person was naturally Cheng Tian’s in-game character.
“Remember his appearance. Keep an eye on him. When he leaves the city, kill him and send him back to the novice village,” Chu Tian said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the four rogues’ eyes lit up with excitement. They loved killing and body camping the most, which was why they chose the rogue class. One of the rogues said, “Leader, just send him back to the novice village? He’ll be out again soon!”
Chu Tian heard this and realized that the rogue players’ temperament was indeed compatible with his.
He said with a half-smile, “If you have nothing else to do, you can follow him to the novice village and grind him down to level 1. The travel expenses to the novice village can be reimbursed by Jian Zhi.”
“Okay, Leader. Don’t worry, it’s on us.” This rogue assured Chu Tian.
This kind of chasing and killing mission was the most profitable. Unless there was a requirement to turn in dropped equipment, they could keep everything the opponent dropped for themselves.
At the same time, they would receive contribution point rewards from the guild. Rogue players loved taking on such missions the most.
After arranging everything, Chu Tian glanced back at Cheng Tian’s retreating figure with a cruel expression.
He also opened the auction house and began searching for items that had been entrusted and put up for sale.
However, after a quick look, there were still no good items. It might be because the auction house had just opened, and most players hadn’t visited it yet.
Seeing no good equipment, he opened the materials page, found the enhancement stone section, and saw that there were already quite a few enhancement stones, priced around 1 silver coin. Chu Tian directly swept clean all the enhancement stones above.
At this stage, few people could afford to enhance equipment, so the price of enhancement stones was still relatively low. In a few more months, after players reached level thirty, they would start enhancing their equipment.
At that time, the price of enhancement stones would begin to soar, directly to fifty silver coins each. Four years later, before Chu Tian was reborn, the price of an enhancement stone had already reached 35 gold coins.
Chu Tian swept away all the enhancement stones, costing him nearly two hundred gold coins, which was about two thousand enhancement stones.
With so many enhancement stones, Chu Tian’s backpack couldn’t hold them all. It was then that he remembered that he only had a small bag with twelve slots.
Moreover, his personal bank seemed to have not been expanded either. He thought about all the places that required money.
There was no other way. He had to go to the bank and expand his personal bank, which cost him over five hundred gold coins, which was enough for now.
Then, after running back and forth several times, he managed to transfer the two thousand enhancement stones to his bank.
When he arrived at the bank, he suddenly discovered the staff forgotten [Staff of the Dead]
