The battle had already entered the final stages. On the grass patch in front of a stone laid ten corpses, all of them from the Warring Dragon Guild. The remaining three members of the Warring Dragon Guild struggled to resist with their respective skills. Still, the situation was already not optimistic, and soon one more adventurer fell to the ground. With only two adventurers remaining, they were further deprived of their ability to resist, unable even to flee. Twelve people had suffered the fate of complete obliteration!

And all this was actually achieved by a small team of six!

“Amazing!” Dharma exclaimed in surprise.

Although they didn’t witness the whole process, during the last siege of the final three Warring Dragon Guild members, the members of this team all displayed shrewdness and flexibility in their positioning. Their attacks were extremely purposeful, and everyone, even the female Priestess at the back who seemed like she was casually adding HP, gave off a capable vibe.

“Boss Dust, what should we do?” Dharma glanced towards Ye Chen. As the saying goes, one mountain cannot hold two tigers. Although they could be said to be from the same camp, only the team that successfully cleared the mission would get the truly lucrative rewards. For the sake of an infinitely sparse skill book, killing adventurers from the same camp was nothing special.

“Let’s talk about it after we head over.” However, Ye Chen was still rather nonchalant. In this kind of mission, it was not impossible to kill adventurers in the same camp. However, after killing adventurers in the same camp, the entire attribute of their team would be reduced by 20%, unless the opponents was an undercover team sent out by the Warring Dragon Guild. Else, until the very last moment, he did not have to worry about what the team would do to them.

Moreover, as far as the current situation was concerned, it was necessary to unite this team of remarkable strength to thwart the mission of the Warring Dragon Guild. If one had too many concerns and suspicions, then they would be doomed for failure before they even began.

Of course, the most important thing was that Ye Chen was not at all afraid of this team!

The three quickly walked towards the team. Among the adventurers of the team, some saw the three walking over, and they all looked over.

The Queen of the Night followed behind them. As her frigid face caught sight of the female Priestess in the opposing team, she couldn’t help but frown, but it quickly regained its emotionless facade.

“Yo, isn’t this our great beauty Night? What a coincidence it is, meeting you in this place, we are really destined to cross paths!”

The two teams gradually approached each other, and Ye Chen and Dharma slowly got a more definite look of the other team’s composition. The team consists of five men and one woman, three Assassins, one Warrior, one Archer, plus a female Priestess. Standing in front of the other few, the slightly suave-looking male Archer should be the captain of the team, but the most conspicuous member was the female Priestess.

Under the special visual effects of the game, the Priestess’s Robe would give the female Priestess who wore them a slightly saintly and holy aura. Within the game, countless female adventurers picked the Priestess profession for the sole purpose of acquiring the Priestess’s beautiful garments. But the female Priestess in front of their eyes had an ample buxom, a slender waist, and perky buttocks. Her phoenix-like eyes were like limpid pools of water. From time to time, her eyebrows gave an alluring glint, and as she was clad in the robes of the Priest, she gave off a holy yet temptingly wild vibe. At the sight of the Priestess, Dharma could not help but stare goggle-eyed.

“Beauty, Boss Dust! It’s a top beauty!” Dharma excitedly spammed his private chat with Ye Chen. Being able to meet a seductive beauty in such a place, Lady Luck was really smiling down on him!

“Yep, it’s a beauty.” Ye Chen nodded. The woman indeed had a bewitching appearance. For a kid like a Dharma, Ye Chen was afraid that he would be hopelessly enthralled by the woman’s charm and be wrapped around her fingers.

But the first sentence when the female Priestess saw the trio left Ye Chen with a strange feeling. This woman seemed to know the Queen of the Night, and that kind of sour tone she adopted also showed what background the two had with each other.

“Night, you are acquainted with that beauty, why not introduce me to her?” Dharma had also heard the weird greeting, but lust had overcome half of his soul now. He just cared about the fact that the Queen of the Night knew this beautiful woman, but did not hear the sour undertone of the female Priestess.

“I do not know her,” the Queen of the Night only said coldly, as if she really didn’t know the woman in front of her.

But what left Ye Chen and Dharma sweating profusely was that the Queen of the Night did not type those words on the team channel but on the public channel instead. It seemed as though her words were not directed towards them, but to the woman on the opposite side.

“YOU…!” When the female Priestess heard it, she nearly suffocated on her fury. She opened her mouth, seeming to want to give a vicious tongue-lashing, but for some reason, she didn’t say anything in the end.

“Queen of the Night, what do you mean by that?!” At the same moment, the voice of the female Priestess rang out in the private chat channel with the Queen of the Night.

“Who are you?” However, the Queen of the Night still gave this bland reply.

“Purple Olive… Don’t play me as a fool!” Purple Olive almost pounced on Night in overflowing anger.

“Oh, come to think of it, we were in the same team in Newbie Village.”

“Hmph! This young lady is too lazy to care about you. What are you doing? How come you are still at Level 16, even though I am at level 20?! Also, which of the two is the man you hooked?” Purple Olive magnanimously said.

“I don’t indulge in poor tastes like you.”

“What poor taste? All these men are so silly, I just have to move my fingers, and they’ll gather at my doorstep like drooling pugs. As for this rich young master on my side, he didn’t even manage to touch my hand, but he already showered me with all sorts of equipment and skills, hehe!” Purple Olive proudly boasted.

“You better be careful not to count your chickens before they hatch.” The Queen of the Night no longer feigned ignorance of Purple Olive and said in a faintly frigid tone.

“What’s there to be afraid of? It’s just a game! Oh Night, you should just learn from my example. With our dazzling beauty, if we form a team together, we will undoubtedly attract the attention of countless people in the game! The game is only starting to heat up right now, and it’s garnering more and more attention now. By the time we establish ourselves, our individual values will have skyrocketed and we can do whatever we want! If the game becomes popular worldwide, who knows, we may even become global stars if we are not careful!” Purple Olive’s words of persuasion enticingly hovered around the Queen of the Night’s ears.

“As I said before, I’m not interested in it. You should go find someone else, there are more beautiful people out there than me.” The voice of the Queen of the Night was still as frigid as an iceberg. Purple Olive’s words seemed like they were about to charm the heavens, but Night remained wholly unmoved.

“There’s no one else! Even if they look decent, they don’t possess such a refined temperament like you! There can only be the two of us! If we team up, we will become famous for sure!” Purple Olive agitatedly urged. Her eyes will never deceive her, but this icy beauty showed no loopholes at all!

“Olive, is this Mage beauty your friend?” When the slightly suave-looking male Archer saw the Queen of the Night, his eyes lit up, and he asked Purple Olive with a smile.

Hmph! This stinky, two-timing bastard! Purple Olive heard the words and snorted inwardly. When this guy first laid his eyes on her, he reacted just as he did now!

“Well, things are like this …” Purple Olive quickly whispered a few words to the male Archer, and after that, the expression on the male Archer’s face slightly changed.

He looked at Ye Chen and the other two, before apologetically saying to Ye Chen, “These three ladies and gentlemen, I’m genuinely sorry. I can guess at your intentions to cooperate with us against the Warring Dragon Guild. It’s really embarrassing to say, but we have no plan to share the skill book rewards with others, and we think that you won’t be much help anyway. The bunch from Warring Dragon should be here any moment, so we’ll be making a move first. Good luck!”

After the male Archer finished his sentences, he immediately turned around with Purple Olive and the others and left without even looking back.

“Boss Dust, what exactly is the meaning of that?” Things were far too sudden. Dharma would never have imagined that the moment the two sides had neared each other, before they could even say anything, the other party would just leave like that.

“Who knows? But that guy is right. It’s not safe here, let’s leave here first.” Ye Chen could figure out some piece of the puzzle, knowing that the matter was definitely related to Purple Olive. However, he didn’t know what exactly Purple Olive said to the male Archer.

“Night, I’ll go over to find you later!”

The meeting of the two elite squads didn’t seem to cause any ripples and thus passed with little fanfare. However, as Ye Chen took Dharma and the Queen of the Night to leave the area, Purple Olive quietly sent a message to the Queen of the Night.

…

“Haha, Boss, this bow is so formidable!”

It was not long after they were separated from the Purple Olive and others. The three had found another treasure chest. A stone bow was revealed as the treasure chest opened up. Dharma looked at the properties of the bow and couldn’t help but shout excitedly.

Stone Tribe Armor-breaking Bow: Attack 33-52, Strength +10, 20% chance to proc the Armour-Breaking effect, ignoring target’s Defense!

After acquiring the bow, Dharma could not wait for even a second longer and hurriedly swapped his equipment. Staring at the sudden drastic increase in his attack power, a wave of excitement swept through him.

However, at this moment, an unprecedented piece of news in the faction channel popped up at the same time in front of the three!
