Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: The Conflict Between Luoshen and Shengshi

"Shengshi Dynasty? Huh, what era is this, still using such old-fashioned names."

"Old-fashioned? Hehe~"

Beside the Drunken Shengshi, a Thief revealed his figure, Shengshi Gu Beicheng stared at the Lion-man Race Warrior in the opposing team with disdain and said:

"No matter how old-fashioned, we're still ahead of your Luoshen, know your place before you start biting others."

A seemingly frail man stepped up on Luoshen's side.

Luoshen Stiletto glared fiercely at Shengshi Gu Beicheng,

"Kid, what did you say? If you have the guts, let's step outside and see who doesn't know their limits."

Shengshi Gu Beicheng stepped forward, equally defiant:

"Let's do it, who's afraid of whom!"

Shengshi Wei Xiao quickly stopped Gu Beicheng, who was about to step forward,

"What are you doing? Stop causing a scene."

At this moment, a Priest named Luoshen Demon Fiend stepped forward and said:

"Proving Luoshen's strength isn't done with words. Everyone shut up."

On Luoshen's side, except for Luoshen Liunian, everyone seemed afraid of this Priest known as Demon Fiend and obediently stood to the side after he spoke, remaining silent.

"Demon Fiend is right."

"Luoshen's strength is not something proven by words."

Luoshen Liunian smiled as he looked at Shengshi Drunkenness,

"Coincidentally, our bet in 'Unifying the Martial World' hasn't ended yet, this time let's wager on being the first to clear this dungeon. Loser..."

Luoshen Liunian paused thoughtfully,

"Let's make it a thousand gold coins, since the game's just started, we're all not that wealthy. What do you think?"

Shengshi Drunkenness looked seriously at Luoshen Liunian,

"Are you this confident you'll get the first clear?"

"You should know how crucial gold coins are to a guild at the start of the game."

Luoshen Liunian didn't answer Shengshi Drunkenness's question but instead found it amusing and asked back:

"Are you hesitating?"

"A mere thousand gold coins, Luoshen can afford to lose."

"If Shengshi can't afford to lose, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Luoshen Liunian looked a bit disappointed at Shengshi Drunkenness and directly walked towards the outskirts of Cyan Dragon City.

"Let's go."

Watching Luoshen Liunian and his group leave, Shengshi Gu Beicheng appeared anxious and said:

"President!"

Shengshi Wei Xiao shook his head at Shengshi Gu Beicheng, signaling him not to speak.

As Luoshen Liunian's group reached the moat of Cyan Dragon City, Shengshi Drunkenness finally spoke up:

"Wait!"

Luoshen Liunian seemed to have been waiting for this, and as soon as Shengshi Drunkenness spoke, he immediately stopped,

"Thought it through?"

Shengshi Drunkenness:

"I'll take that bet on behalf of Shengshi!"

Seeing Shengshi Drunkenness agree to his bet, Luoshen Liunian smiled satisfactorily and said:

"Now that's the Shengshi I know."

Watching Luoshen Liunian and his group walk away, Shengshi Wei Xiao finally spoke up:

"Monsters above level 10 will drop Copper Coins and Silver Coins."

"You know that a thousand gold coins could have a significant impact on our guild in the early stages."

Shengshi Drunkenness took a deep breath, a hint of determination in his eyes, said:

"Shengshi won't lose."

"Let's go to the dungeon."

......

"President, why did you make this bet?"

Beside Luoshen Liunian, Luoshen Demon Fiend suddenly asked.

As they walked down the road leading to the dungeon, Luoshen Liunian glanced at the team not far behind and said:

"How do you all see Drunkenness as a person?"

Luoshen Stiletto:

"Although we're in different camps, I can't help but admire his straightforwardness, a real man."

Luoshen Kuangxiao:

"Speaking strictly about character, there's really nothing to criticize."

Luoshen Diemeng:

"Several of my sisters are his loyal fans, indicating he's quite charming."

Listening to everyone's evaluation of Shengshi Drunkenness, Luoshen Liunian's lips curled slightly,

"Then tell me, if they lose the bet this time, what do you think Drunkenness will do?"

Luoshen Demon Fiend:

"Probably arrange for Gold Farmers to farm gold while starting to acquire gold coins circulating in the market."

Everyone looked at Luoshen Liunian, not understanding what he meant by that.

It was only then that Luoshen Liunian gave the final answer,

"Did I ever say when the loser has to pay?"

Luoshen Demon Fiend immediately understood,

"I see."

The others might not have reacted as quickly as Demon Fiend, but they eventually caught on one by one.

Luoshen Kuangxiao clicked his tongue in awe,

"That's too exciting."

"But even so, you mustn't let your guard down."

Luoshen Liunian looked determined,

"Do you like being called number two all the time?"

Everyone unanimously said:

"No."

Luoshen Demon Fiend:

"I heard the people from Divine Hall and Proud Gaze have also arrived in the Main City, I think it would be best if we secure the first clear soon lest something unexpected happens."

Luoshen Liunian:

"Yes, Demon Fiend is right, but this can't be rushed blindly."

"Demon Fiend, go ahead and share your analysis with everyone."

"Okay."

Luoshen Demon Fiend:

"According to the official information, the background of the 'Jungle Secret Realm' is like this."

"The entrance of this secret realm was initially discovered by an Adventurer, then Cyan Dragon City sent a Human Race officer named Oktod along with a small team to investigate."

"But after three days without Oktod returning, the City Lord of Cyan Dragon City sent another named Kadoraf to investigate, who also never returned."

"After learning from the past, no one was willing to venture there again, thus it became our first team dungeon."

"Investigate the secret realm's truth!"

At this point, Luoshen Demon Fiend paused to let everyone digest the information.

After a while, Luoshen Demon Fiend continued,

"Based on my judgment, the final BOSS of this secret realm might either be Oktod or Kadoraf, possibly even both as bosses."

"Going over this data, Oktod appears to be a Vanguard Camp captain, so his profession is most likely a Warrior."

"At that time, we should proceed with the traditional strategy, the tricky part is Kadoraf; I speculate he might be a Mage, which means we don't know how high his damage is, and our current equipment may not endure."

"If we can't handle it, everyone should immediately go to personal dungeons to find equipment, don't waste time there."

Luoshen Kuangxiao:

"Then why aren't we going for the first clear of the personal dungeon first?"

This time, Luoshen Liunian answered Blood Slaughter's question,

"Because the first clear of this team dungeon rewards a Guild Creation Order!"

"Hiss~"

Upon hearing the three words 'Guild Creation Order,' everyone instantly understood why this dungeon's first clear had caused such a stir.

"So no matter what, we must strive to be the first to establish a guild residence in the game."

......

Meanwhile, Lin Yi received a message from Mr. Handsome,

"Hey Brother Feng, I've reached level 10, but it seems only two people in my guild can make it today. The others are caught up with something and probably won't reach level 10 today."

Feng Hua:

"Two is fine, I'll take the remaining two spots."

"By the way, you don't need to change professions just yet, your Hidden Profession isn't so easy to obtain, come over first."

Not suspecting anything, Mr. Handsome replied,

"Oh alright, I'll come over and find you first, she might reach level 10 a bit later."

Feng Hua:

"Okay, I'll also find someone."

Meanwhile, in the faraway Newbie Village, Phantom City Xia Haitang suddenly received a friend request...
