Hidden Moon Following Wind: Got it.
Meanwhile in the temporary group chat, Salted Fish had already provided his answer.
Salted Fish: Haha, don’t worry, I’m absolutely confident, wasn’t that Ancient Tomb Corpse King already taken down by you guys?
While speaking, he also sent a private message.
Salted Fish: Feng, bro, I’ll tell you about it, but you can’t tell Hidden Dragon. I got a Tomb Robber’s journal when I was clearing Little Monsters this morning. It recorded some information about the ancient tomb. The Ancient Tomb Corpse King is definitely the BOSS inside. If you don’t believe me, take a look for yourself.
Saying so, he even sent over a few screenshots of the journal’s contents.
The content of this journal was quite clear.
At first, the mine was just that, a mine, where the government organized some prisoners to excavate ores and forge weapons.
Latter, as the miners dug, they accidentally unearthed an ancient tomb, and the news spread out.
The recorder of the journal, a Tomb Robber, managed to infiltrate the miners with a few companions.
Then, seizing the opportunity, they dug through to the ancient tomb but unexpectedly encountered a Corpse King inside. The Tomb Robbers suffered heavy casualties. The remaining people fled, including the recorder.
What they hadn’t expected was that someone in their team had been bitten by the Corpse King. After they got out of the tomb, zombification occurred, and what was worse, the Corpse King also escaped.
The result was not just the annihilation of the Tomb Robbers, but the miners who were mining also met with disaster and ultimately all turned into zombies...
After reading the journal’s content, Xiao Jie nodded slightly in his heart. It seemed that there might indeed be no other BOSS inside the ancient tomb, but he wondered how the Corpse King had got out given the Immortal’s seal on the tomb.
Could it have crawled out following the thief hole dug by the Tomb Robbers?
Are the Tomb Robbers not afraid of an Immortal’s seal?
Hidden Moon Following Wind: Salted Fish bro, you really could have told the team leader about this. It would be safer to act with the main team, so why take the risk alone?
Salted Fish: I’m not ungrateful. You’ve seen my profession. It’s pretty much a waste already. It takes too many Experience Points to level up further, and I just don’t have the heart to do it anymore.
Even if I level up to 40, so what? At best, I’ll only be able to farm a slightly better Physical Profession.
I don’t want to keep struggling, but it’s hard to let go of the game without feeling resigned. I’ve played this game for three years and respawned so many times without learning a single spell. Although my Martial Arts are somewhat valuable, which gamer doesn’t know some Martial Arts?
That’s why before I quit the game, I must make a big score. You can rest assured, Feng, bro, I’m definitely not the type to take senseless risks. I have a backup plan for this and it will be absolutely fine.
Hidden Moon Following Wind: Okay, count me in.
Since Salted Fish was so confident, he decided to join in the excitement. Salted Fish was right about one thing, without Hidden Dragon Do Not Use and those core members, the biggest benefits would definitely go to the three of them.
Of course, there were inherent risks, but a makeshift team had its way of playing – everyone for themselves.
He didn’t have much confidence in this team, but he was very confident in his own strength. If danger lurked, he knew he could escape, considering that when facing a tiger, one didn’t need to run faster than the tiger, just faster than the others.
He could get the lion’s share of the benefits and bail at any moment, so what was there to fear?
However, some things still needed to be clarified. Even for a makeshift team, there should be some standards. Right now, it seemed too amateurish.
Salted Fish clearly had no experience leading a team, which was all too presumptuous.
He then spoke up in the temporary group chat.
Hidden Moon Following Wind: I’m in, but we must change the way we distribute the loot. There are so many treasures in the ancient tomb; your way is too chaotic. I suggest we go for the traditional gold team distribution method. If good loot drops, everyone bids with their silver, and the highest bidder takes it. The money from the auction is then shared among everyone. And we can deduct the one hundred taels from Dida La out of this sum.
This way, those with silver get the Equipment, and those without still get a share of silver. No one loses out.
Dida La: I agree, this seems more reliable.
He also didn’t fully trust Salted Fish’s character. What if he reneged on the deal? He couldn’t possibly challenge him to a Life and Death Duel.
After all, there were no GMs to report to in the game.
Salted Fish: Fine, we’ll auction then. Everyone has heard it. All three Guest Elders are in, so what’s there to worry about? I won’t force anyone, those who want to join, gather at the auction house entrance tomorrow morning at 10. I’ll lead you to make a fortune together.
But let’s be clear, opening the seal on the ancient tomb requires two spirit stone seals, which is 200 taels. We’ll need to pool money to buy the talismans. It won’t be much, just a few taels each, consider it a registration fee.
Xiu Hua Meng Zhangfei: It’s settled, Salted Fish boss. I’ll definitely be there tomorrow.
Imperial Little Qi: Count me in as well.
Shengtun Lemon: I’m going too!
Qingfeng Deying: I’m going to pass, it’s better to be safe with these kinds of things. Bye, everyone.
Quite a few people expressed their willingness to participate.
Others didn’t say anything but silently left the group.
Watching everyone’s reactions, Xiao Jie thought to himself that he still needed to proceed with caution. Salted Fish’s credibility and organizational skills clearly fell short compared to Hidden Dragon Do Not Use. He’d see how things went tomorrow and be ready to make a quick exit if the momentum was off. He couldn’t afford to be dragged down by this motley crew.
