“Hello, nice to meet you. I am Lan He from the Blue Brook Guild, my main account is Lanqiao Chunxue.” As soon as the friend request was accepted, the other party's message was sent. Without saying any nonsense like “are you there,” they went straight to the point and introduced themselves. It could be seen that this was a very confident person.

“Hello,” Ye Xiu replied simply. After all, he had been in the Glory circle for ten years, so he was very familiar with Blue Brook Guild, one of the three major guilds. As for Lanqiao Chunxue, Ye Xiu didn’t know much about who this person was. If it were Huang Shaotian and his Blade Master Yu Ye Sheng Fan, Ye Xiu would be more familiar with them.

Lan He obviously didn’t know that the person he was about to deal with was a master who was on a much higher plane than him. After all, his name, Lanqiao Chunxue, in the online gaming world could already scare a lot of people. Lan He confidently thought that the other party already knew who he was, so he proceeded to the next step of communication: “What are you busy with, brother?”

“Running dungeons,” Ye Xiu replied. He wasn’t just standing there chatting. At the same time as the message, Jun Mo Xiao and Su Mucheng's Dancing Rain had already entered Green Forest.

“Oh? Which dungeon?” Lan He asked.

“Green Forest.”

Lan He was confused for five seconds, and then he guessed what he thought was the only possibility: “Taking friends?”

“You could say that...” Ye Xiu said.

“Uh, we are missing one person for the Ice Frost Forest dungeon. I wonder if brother is interested?” Lan He messaged.

“Oh? Why are you looking for me?” Ye Xiu asked.

Why are we looking for you? This question made Lan He quite emotional. This story would be a long one, a whole day long.

Initially, Jun Mo Xiao’s team successively snatched the first kills of the Spider Cave twice, making the Blue Brook Guild look bad for not accomplishing anything in this dungeon. Everyone felt quite annoyed. But after intentionally inquiring about Jun Mo Xiao, the guy who had been on the list three times, and the situation of this team, the people of Blue Brook Guild discovered some unusual things.

The first kill was from his teammate, who had previously had a conflict with him.

Yue Zhong Mian, who was spamming the chat, mentioned a hidden Boss. Judging from the time, it was the Dark Night Cat Demon that Jun Mo Xiao had single-handedly taken down. The spamming content said that Jun Mo Xiao had deliberately killed the entire team to pocket the Boss. Such a despicable and shameless guy, so how could Yue Zhong Mian mix with him in the same team next?

No one knew what happened in this process, but at least it showed one thing: this team that snatched the first kills of the Spider Cave twice was not a team of friends, but a pickup team, and a pickup team with internal conflicts.

Such a team was able to snatch two first kills, so their strength was not simple. And Jun Mo Xiao was obviously the focus of this team. This shameless person who harmed the entire team for the hidden Boss was actually accepted again. What did this person rely on?

In addition, there was also a careful Blue Brook Guild player who noticed a detail. The ranking of the team list announced when this pickup team snatched the first kills of the Spider Cave twice was not the same. The first in the list must be the captain of this team. The first time, the captain of this team was Yue Zhong Mian, but the second time, the captain was changed to Jun Mo Xiao.

The identity of the captain is very serious. They can kick people and set the team's distribution method. And this team was willing to give the captain to a shameless Boss robber. What does this mean?

All of this shows their dependence on this person. Without this person, they simply could not take down the first kill.

This person is really a talent, and is very likely a talent without guild affiliation.

A talented person with a guild would not be in a pickup team during the opening of a new server; a talented person with a guild could not possibly be online 24 hours a day.

After observing, inquiring, and analyzing for a day, the people of Blue Brook Guild came to this conclusion. As the saying goes, it is easy to get thousands of troops, but it is difficult to find a general. Such a talent should be actively recruited. This is how the event of Lan He sending 18 friend requests occurred. The friend request was sent, but neither agreed to nor refused. That means they either didn’t see it or ignored it. Lan He decided to use this method to make the other party feel his sincerity. In fact, his approach was quite successful. The 18 consecutive friend requests made Ye Xiu, who was originally prepared to ignore them, finally accept the friend request.

However, when the other party asked why he was looking for him, Lan He certainly wouldn’t say it in such a complicated way. He just said that he had been on the first kill list three times since the new server opened, so he looked like a master, so he hoped to make friends and so on.

“To be honest, we are preparing to challenge the current record of Ice Frost Forest, and we are missing a top-notch expert like you, brother. If we break the record, the purple equipment will directly belong to you. How about it? Our guild just wants a record.” Lan He wasn’t in a hurry to pull people into the guild. Glory has been around for so long, and everyone knows each other's famous experts in each guild. This Jun Mo Xiao has never been heard of. Lan He estimated that this person was either a master from a guild who came to the new server to play around, or a hermit who has never been interested in guilds and specializes in the wild.

The first type doesn’t need to be paid attention to directly, it is definitely impossible to pull them in. As for the second type, they are not interested in the guild itself. It is definitely a dead end to go straight to the point.

So Lan He decided to invite people to run a dungeon together to enhance their friendship. Everyone is a master, and it is easy to cherish each other when cooperating happily. Furthermore, they still have to see the strength of this person with their own eyes to see if he is as worthy of being recruited as they have speculated. As for the purple equipment that was promised, that was just a bargaining chip to show their sincerity. At most, the Ice Frost Forest is just a level 25 purple equipment. It is better to have it than not to have it. There is no need to linger and haggle over low-level equipment. To be honest, if the other party is really a great expert, they wouldn't care about this, but this is the most valuable bargaining chip currently available in the dungeon.

Ye Xiu, who received this invitation, had his eyes lit up and quickly replied to Lan He: “Purple equipment is not necessary. If possible, I want something else.”

“What?” Lan He asked.

“Rare materials,” Ye Xiu said.

“Haha, brother is indeed an understanding person.” Lan He knew that the other party had seen the world. They don’t care about low-level purple equipment. The most valuable things at the moment are these rare materials. These are things that will be used even in the later stages of the game and will never be eliminated.

“72 Strong Spider Silk,” Ye Xiu offered a price.

“No problem,” Lan He agreed readily. Although Strong Spider Silk is also considered a rare material, because it is produced in the novice area's dungeon, it can be farmed infinitely, and even ordinary Bosses have a chance to drop it, so it can be said to be the cheapest of the rare materials.

“Also, a Mithril Pendant of the White Witch,” Ye Xiu said.

“Sure, I can give it to you now.” Lan He replied with a message while laughing. The Mithril Pendant, like the sword that Ye Xiu got from the Skeleton Warrior, is a decorative item with no attributes at all. It has no value. It’s just that some girls like to use it as jewelry.

“Also, White Wolf’s Sharp Fangs, I want eight,” Ye Xiu said.

“This...brother, you want Strong Spider Silk, Mithril Pendant, and now you want Sharp Fangs. Isn’t this a bit too much?” Lan He was a little unhappy.
