BOSS05

"What is going on! Lin Han!" the Vice Guild Leader shouted. He tried to resist, but Fang Zhiyi dodged the fireball he fired with a bizarre twist of his body.

"Fang Zhiyi, you..."

"Lin Han, is this the idiot Guild Leader you always talk about? Yesterday you said you would bring them all here today, and I have been preparing for this for a long time."

"Ah?"

"Lin Han, you!"

Young Master Yan glared as he turned into a flash of white light. Normally, Fang Zhiyi would not have been able to kill him in one strike, but he had let his guard down and was stabbed in a vital spot by Fang Zhiyi's sword.

However, Fang Zhiyi's actions left Lin Han completely stunned.

As soon as Young Master Yan died, he dropped two glowing pieces of equipment. Fang Zhiyi bent down to pick them up and generously slapped them into Lin Han's hands in front of everyone: "Take them!"

"Very well! You despicable villain!" a Vice Guild Leader cursed.

"Lin Han, do not think we will not be able to track you down!"

Lin Han was numb. It was not supposed to be like this, right? Did Fang Zhiyi misunderstand something?

He wanted to explain, but Fang Zhiyi did not give him the chance at all. The seven or eight people only lasted for less than five minutes before they were all sent packing. As each person died, they stared at Lin Han's group with faces full of anger.

"Fang Zhiyi, stop! Stop, you idiot!" Lin Han's heart sank to the bottom. Offending this BOSS would at most mean dying once, but if he offended the Brotherhood of the Four Seas, he would be completely doomed!

Fang Zhiyi, however, let out a laugh: "No need to thank me, who told us to be friends."

He did not attack these few people. Instead, he put away the longsword in his hand, swapped it for a staff he picked up from the ground, and knocked them out the door like he was herding pigs.

Finally coming to his senses, Lin Han had no choice but to lead his teammates and run outside. He could not care about anything else right now; getting out was the priority!

But they received a series of notifications one after another.

"Lin Han has been expelled from the Brotherhood of the Four Seas!"

"Xiaorou has been expelled from the Brotherhood of the Four Seas!"

"Flowing Cloud has been expelled from the Brotherhood of the Four Seas!"

"Nameless has been expelled from the Brotherhood of the Four Seas!"

"It is over!" Lin Han's scalp went numb. How did things end up like this? But before he could react, the people guarding the door suddenly cursed: "Sure enough, you guys really know how to play. You tricked us into going inside to die, while you came out perfectly fine? Lin Han, you have completely thrown away your face just for some equipment, have you not?"

"I did not..."

"Brothers, take them down! The Guild Leader said to kill them until all their equipment drops!"

Lin Han took off running, with his teammates following closely behind.

Just after this group of people left, a chubby figure peeked around and sneaked into the dungeon.

"My Lord, you told me to guard outside and come in once the people left... Holy crap! Good stuff!" Money Rat's eyes narrowed with joy as he looked at the equipment on the ground.

"Do you dare to sell the equipment dropped by that Brotherhood of the Four Seas?"

Money Rat shook his head: "I do not care about any Brotherhood of the Four Seas. If there is a deal to be made, I will do it."

Fang Zhiyi looked at Money Rat in front of him with satisfaction.

"There is one more thing. Go out and ask around about the movements of that group of people just now. It does not matter if you have to spend a little money."

"No problem, My Lord." Money Rat nodded repeatedly. He definitely did not want to offend this God of Wealth. But he suddenly thought of something, "Oh right, there is something I have to tell you."

"Speak."

"The world is about to update soon. Do you understand what an update is?" Money Rat looked at Fang Zhiyi, trying to read any emotion on his skeletal face, but he failed. "It means... uh... you will die, understand?"

Fang Zhiyi nodded.

"So try to hide from those people as much as possible." Seeing this, Money Rat continued to gather the equipment. "We can still cooperate for a long time."

"Right, one more thing," Fang Zhiyi suddenly said. "You need to spend some money to have people spread some information..."

Money Rat did not ask why; he just kept nodding. He knew exactly what he wanted and never asked too many questions about things unrelated to his business.

Lin Han was currently looking thoroughly disgraced. In just half a day, he had died five times. Most of the equipment Fang Zhiyi had given him had dropped, and his teammates had scattered. However, the other three probably were not having an easy time either.

He heard that Young Master Yan was extremely angry and had even placed a bounty of fifty thousand real-world currency to mess with them.

Dropping equipment was one thing, but losing face was a much bigger deal. For some unknown reason, the news that Lin Han had killed all the higher-ups of the Brotherhood of the Four Seas spread throughout the neighboring cities. To Young Master Yan, this was like tearing off his face and stomping on it twice.

There was no one else at the scene, and none of the higher-ups who went this time would mention this matter. In other words, the only ones who could have spread such news were Lin Han and his group!

Lin Han found a desolate spot in the wilderness and logged off. But as soon as he logged off, he received a call from Nameless.

"Have you heard?"

"Heard what?" Lin Han was a bit bewildered.

"Flowing Cloud was attacked in real life."

"Ah?"

"Someone in the Brotherhood of the Four Seas knew Flowing Cloud's real identity. Young Master Yan sent people to find him. I heard he is a high school student, and he got beaten up! Be careful, I am going to lay low recently too."

Listening to the busy tone on the other end of the phone, a sense of panic swelled in Lin Han's heart.

"It is all because of this Fang Zhiyi! What bullshit artificial intelligence! It does not understand anything at all!" As he cursed, Lin Han suddenly thought of an idea. "If I hide in Fang Zhiyi's dungeon, would that not mean no one can touch me?"

Although that skeleton was mentally challenged, it was extremely useful!

He was confident that he would not be found by Young Master Yan because he was very cautious and had never left his personal information online.

In the game world, several major guilds noticed a shop in Cloud City. This shop was actually selling some minor top-tier equipment! Moreover, the shop stated that those with specific needs could even place pre-orders!

For a time, the name of the Fortune Trading Firm spread far and wide. Some people guessed they were a large corporation in reality, or professional merchants. Others believed they had hired a group of professional fighters specifically to farm equipment.

And behind the scenes of the Fortune Trading Firm, Money Rat was overjoyed as he counted his money.

He made up his mind that even after the update, he had to find a way to let Fang Zhiyi live a few more days. Partners who trusted him like this were rare!

Although he did not know why Fang Zhiyi hated those minor characters so much, in order to show his sincerity, Money Rat decided to spend his own money to add some difficulties for Lin Han and his group.

By the time Lin Han returned to the game, the whole world was looking for him. Rumors about Young Master Yan were flying everywhere, and the source of these rumors faintly pointed to Lin Han's group.

Thinking about it now, they were the only ones who had the biggest conflict with the Brotherhood of the Four Seas.

Thus, Young Master Yan, whose ego was shattered once again, added a significant amount to the bounty, determined to make Lin Han pay the price!

Lin Han felt like he had fallen into a massive pit, yet he just could not figure out exactly who was setting him up.
