Chapter 136 Zennarde's Sword

Nie Yan glanced at his equipment: Obsidian Leather Armor, Ghost King Legguards, Zennarde's Sword, Shadow of Darkness. When he first started collecting the Chapters of Order, his equipment was still in its initial stages. But now, after so much time and effort, his equipment far surpassed that of most players.

Especially Zennarde's Sword. Which player could withstand a weapon with over 600 attack power and +12 level-ignoring properties? What's more, Nie Yan's own stats were already so impressive. Even a heavily shielded warrior wouldn't be able to take more than a few hits!

He just didn't know how many people were over there. If there was a group of top-tier players, he would have to be more careful.

Nie Yan naturally wouldn't rush in to his death. As a Thief, tactics were very important when facing a large number of enemies.

"You need to be careful. News from over there says that the player called Can Se has a dozen or so people with him." However, Guo Huai thought about it and laughed, "It seems I'm worrying too much. A large number of people is useless against you."

In their eyes, with Nie Yan's skill, he could easily handle anything that came his way.

"Get the Chapters of Order from those guys and come back quickly. You still need to finalize the construction plans for the other fortresses. Also, tomorrow a bunch of us are going to run a dungeon together, and we need you to guide us." Cui Can Dao Guang said. They were going to the Level 40 Dragonduo Valley, a newly opened dungeon. They would gather the team first, and then wait for Nie Yan to come before starting the dungeon, which would avoid a lot of losses.

"No problem, contact me then," Nie Yan said. Their team of top players could clear even expert-level dungeons without much trouble.

Nie Yan thought for a moment. Besides those few Chapters of Order, he also needed to collect the other fragments of Sogoth's Shadow in the Level 30 map, Caron Valley. Thinking about the location of the Sogoth's Shadow fragments there, it should be absolutely safe, otherwise he wouldn't have been so relaxed until now and not bothered to collect them.

After a while, Yu Rui from the Longyue Financial Group arrived. The Niu Ren Tribe had handed over the commercial district for credit point transactions in the rear to the Longyue Financial Group, and the Longyue Financial Group had injected another 50,000 gold coins, increasing the capital for the Niu Ren Tribe.

After the Longyue Financial Group's investment came in, Nie Yan began to equip his team members with various high-end items, such as large-capacity backpacks. In addition, more and more guild members were equipped with horses, with the number reaching 3,000. These 3,000 people were all top players of the Niu Ren Tribe, a mobile force carefully crafted by the Niu Ren Tribe.

After capturing the fortresses, the Niu Ren Tribe directly advanced to a Level 5 guild and began to steadily move towards Level 6.

With the investment of huge amounts of capital, the Niu Ren Tribe was developing rapidly, and the players in Karon City were becoming increasingly eager to join the Niu Ren Tribe.

"I'm going to take a look at the City of Glory. Although the major guilds are snatching and building their own fortresses, the Triumph Empire and Holy Light Flame can't threaten us for the time being. We need to prevent the people from Bloodthirsty Blades, Mage Alliance, and Sacred Guardians from launching a surprise attack, especially Bloodthirsty Blades. They're so close to us that we have to be on guard," Nie Yan instructed with some concern.

"Don't worry. Although these fortresses haven't been fully constructed, the walls have been reinforced, and there are many people defending them. Even if we're attacked, we can hold out for a while, and we can immediately organize reinforcements!" Guo Huai said, he had already considered this. Although the City of Glory where Bloodthirsty Blades was located was very close to Karon City, even if they captured a fortress of the Niu Ren Tribe, it wouldn't last long. Karon City was the territory of the Niu Ren Tribe!

Nie Yan nodded. Since Guo Huai had noticed it, he was relieved.

"Bloodthirsty Blades has been acting frequently with the Triumph Empire and Holy Light Flame, and they seem to want to join forces to deal with us. Some people are even offering high salaries to poach our members. Xia Chong Yu Bing and Ben Zhi E Mo have both received their invitation letters. Many members have refused, but it's hard to guarantee that no one will be tempted," Guo Huai said, these things were making him extremely busy.

"I think most members of the Niu Ren Tribe understand that the conditions offered by Bloodthirsty Blades are just to divide the Niu Ren Tribe and are not credible. They will definitely have a future if they stay in the Niu Ren Tribe. If they defect to Bloodthirsty Blades, no matter how strong their skills are, they will always be seen as traitors." Nie Yan said. In *Conviction*, if a player betrays a guild for profit, they will be forever labeled as a traitor and recorded in their personal file. Who would want to trust you after that?

Because the guild's various terms were extremely comprehensive, an excellent guild member would generally sign an agreement with the guild after joining, enjoying the guild's various benefits. Once they breached the contract and left, they would have to pay several times the penalty, and there would be a bad record after the breach. Generally, guild members who signed the agreement rarely left the guild. As for the ordinary players below, if they wanted to leave, there was no way to keep them.

Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that some people would get carried away by the money.

"I'm afraid they'll offer high salaries, and many people will still be tempted," Guo Huai said. There had been a slight increase in the number of people leaving the Niu Ren Tribe recently.

"What's there to be afraid of? They're sending invitation letters to our guild members to divide us. We can also send invitation letters to their elite members, with higher salaries than they offer! The Niu Ren Tribe doesn't lack money now. However, those who switch over need to be strictly supervised, given the best treatment, but also set the strictest terms to prevent them from defecting again," Nie Yan said. The game between guilds was not just on the surface, but also constantly involved in the dark.

The Niu Ren Tribe was not afraid of any form of declaration of war. Compared with other guilds, because the Niu Ren Tribe had fewer people, all the benefits were spread evenly among each guild member, which seemed very generous, several times higher than other guilds. Many people wanted to join the Niu Ren Tribe but had no chance, racking their brains but couldn't find a way. Those who wanted to leave the Niu Ren Tribe were even fewer.

It was precisely this elite strategy that made each member of the Niu Ren Tribe's strength surpass ordinary members, which also cultivated a sense of honor for each person as a member of the Niu Ren Tribe's guild. Plus, their brothers and teammates were all around them. Bloodthirsty Blades' poaching might have some effect on some members of the Niu Ren Tribe, but for the entire Niu Ren Tribe, the impact was minimal and could not disrupt the overall situation.

"I'll take care of it and see if Bloodthirsty Blades can hold on or if our Niu Ren Tribe can hold on!" Guo Huai's eyes lit up when he heard Nie Yan's words. Using the other person's methods against them was also a good trick.

Nie Yan was very relieved to leave the guild's affairs to Guo Huai. Guo Huai had always been very steady in his work, and with him guiding from behind, as long as there were no major mistakes in the overall direction, that was enough.

Cui Can Dao Guang and the others had already formed a team and were preparing to level up.

"Be careful, don't get targeted," Nie Yan said to Cui Can Dao Guang and the others. They were easily targeted by enemies when grinding monsters and leveling up in ordinary maps. Although the Triumph Empire and Holy Light Flame had calmed down a lot recently, the Niu Ren Tribe still had many other enemies, such as Bloodthirsty Blades.

"Don't worry, we're going to the Level 50 map to grind monsters and level up. There's usually no one there," Cui Can Dao Guang said.

Nie Yan looked at this group of members: Cui Can Dao Guang, Shui Se Yan Tou, Leng Ao Ying, Shi Li Hua Sha, Sha Bu Si De Huai Dan, Xia Chong Yu Bing, Xi Huan Jiang Nan... each and every one of them was an elite force of the Niu Ren Tribe. If they encountered a situation, with their strength, it wouldn't be easy for the people of other guilds to take them down.

While Nie Yan and the others were chatting, a group of members in the distance frequently looked over here.

Shui Se Yan Tou pointed to Zennarde's Sword on Nie Yan's waist and said, "A few members of the Ku Ye Studio asked us to ask you what kind of sword you're holding. They said this sword is so cool, where did it drop? They want to go get one too."

The unique shape of Zennarde's Sword, with black flames burning all over it, constantly and sharply, was impossible to hide and hard not to attract attention.

Nie Yan chuckled. Did they think Zennarde's Sword was a common piece of equipment like the Blade of Division or the Eternal Set, which could be obtained by farming in a fixed area for a while? Then they were terribly wrong.

"This sword is Zennarde's Sword," Nie Yan said with a smile. If he didn't say it, these guys would definitely pester him to ask where the sword dropped.

Everyone present showed an unbelievable expression.

"Zennarde, isn't that the tyrant from the Age of Darkness, the Dragon King?" Shui Se Yan Tou felt his mouth was a little dry. The name of this sword shocked him too much. The Dragon King Zennarde was not as simple as an ordinary legendary figure.

"Damn, no wonder it looks so awesome. It turns out to be Zennarde's stuff!" Cui Can Dao Guang exclaimed. He was intensely curious about the attributes of this sword.

Just by hearing the name Zennarde's Sword, one would know that it was a unique item.

"Legendary item?" Shui Se Yan Tou asked. Items with names were generally sub-legendary or legendary, especially with such a flamboyant name as the Dragon King Zennarde's Sword, it had to be at least a legendary item, and its attributes must be extraordinary.

"A sealed divine object, with attributes similar to Level 50 Dark Gold equipment," Nie Yan said. Since everyone had asked about it, there was no need to hide the attributes of Zennarde's Sword, so he simply turned on sharing.

For a time, the attributes of Zennarde's Sword spread wildly among the members. Seeing the attributes of Zennarde's Sword, everyone was extremely shocked. This was the equipment used by the boss of the Niu Ren Tribe, Crazy Thief Nie Yan!

Although this equipment currently only had the attributes of Level 50 Dark Gold equipment, at this level, it could be considered super excellent. Such a high-damage and impressive weapon was worthy of its name for players of the current level. It was definitely a powerful killing sword, a god-slaying sword!
