Chapter 4 My Glory Points Are Not Enough

"My Glory Points are not enough," Yue'er Ya said. Taking level forty equipment was still a little early for them priests; after all, their leveling speed couldn’t compare to other classes.

Ten Miles of Painted Gauze, standing to the side, suggested, "Why don't we put it in the guild warehouse first? Whoever has a high enough level can use it first."

Only then did Nie Yan have a chance to size up this new member who had just joined the Ni Ren Tribe. She wore a light blue priest's robe, exuding an elegant and quiet temperament. Judging her appearance alone, she was on par with Yao Yao, Yu Lan, Yue'er Ya, and the others in the Ni Ren Tribe.

"Then let's put it in the guild warehouse first. Whoever needs it can tell me," Nie Yan said. It was absolutely impossible to put top-tier Dark Gold equipment like this in the guild warehouse at a normal price. This was obtained by the entire team of over six hundred people at the risk of a wipe. If it were bought by a spy lurking from another guild and then leaked out, the loss would be too great. This equipment could only be used by elite players who had signed an agreement.

In the past, when grinding these Lord-class creatures, it was already considered very good to occasionally get two pieces of Dark Gold equipment, usually just one. If a Lord-class creature was killed and not even a single piece of Dark Gold equipment dropped, then it could only be said that their luck was too bad.

Nie Yan and the others were clearing content above their level, and the rewards were indeed very different, actually dropping five pieces, which could be considered a burst of good luck.

Under Nie Yan's guidance, the entire team went deeper into the Eternal City, continuing to clear the mechanical golems and energy golems along the way. There were no major accidents along the way. Six members died once, two were resurrected, and the remaining mages who couldn't enjoy resurrection spent some time corpse-running. Everything was still going smoothly.

After killing countless energy golems along the way, they actually put together a set of Gold-grade Eternal equipment. Brilliant Cutlass swapped it in, and his attributes increased by a large margin. He gave the Silver-grade set he took off to Yi Yan. They also put together another Silver-grade Eternal set, preparing to sell it to Half-Asleep Fox.

This trip to the Eternal City could be described as a great harvest. They obtained a lot of various equipment. The Glory Points Nie Yan distributed to each member averaged at least 500+, and some were already over a thousand. The average level of the team members also increased by more than one level.

Nie Yan quickly started making arrangements to deal with the next Lord, the Goblin Fire Mage, which was a mechanical unit that knew fire magic and had considerable combat power. With a set of Gold-grade Eternal equipment, Brilliant Cutlass could almost withstand it.

There was also a unique method for dealing with the Goblin Fire Mage. The Goblin Fire Mage had very high magic damage. If they were hit by one of its group attack spells, Nie Yan and the others would face a team wipe, so they had to arrange for the players to withdraw from the attack range of the group attack spell when the Goblin Fire Mage was about to cast it, and there wouldn't be any problems. As for predicting when the Goblin Fire Mage would cast a group attack spell, Nie Yan had a unique method, which players had summarized on websites in his previous life. Plus, Nie Yan had also participated in killing the Goblin Fire Mage, so he had some experience.

The team members' cooperation wasn't very smooth. They were a little slow when retreating, and were wiped out twice, but the third time they finally managed to take down the Goblin Fire Mage. The Goblin Fire Mage dropped three pieces of Dark Gold equipment.

The crowd scattered in all directions, sitting down to recover their health.

"Compared to the first Goblin Cutter, this Goblin Fire Mage is really too difficult to deal with." Brilliant Cutlass wiped the sweat from his forehead. The experience they gained from killing the Goblin Cutter barely made up for the experience they lost.

"The next few Lords are much simpler," Nie Yan said. The Goblin Fire Mage was a special case. A Lord who could use ranged area-of-effect magic was indeed too difficult to deal with.

"That's good," Brilliant Cutlass said. If they had to wipe out the team at least once or twice every time they killed a Lord, it would be too much effort.

"It's a pity there wasn't anything good besides a few pieces of Dark Gold equipment," Undying Scoundrel said gloomily from the side.

"Don't bite off more than you can chew. Ask the elite teams of the Triumphant Empire and the Holy Roman Empire, can they get level forty Dark Gold equipment?" Brilliant Cutlass retorted. Without Nie Yan's command, there was basically no chance of winning against these few Bosses. No matter how many people came, it would still be a team wipe.

"The next Goblin Smasher might drop high-level magic skill books, everyone perk up," Nie Yan said to the crowd.

The team members, who had recovered their health, stood up one after another and reorganized their formation.

The Ni Ren Tribe's progress in clearing the Eternal City could be considered fast. Nie Yan calculated the time and figured they should be able to clear the entire Eternal City before the Holy Roman Empire's fortress war began. If their luck wasn't too bad, they might be able to get a full set of Dark Gold Eternal equipment, so Brilliant Cutlass's attributes could increase by another notch.

Going to participate in the fortress war with that kind of equipment, he could basically easily crush ordinary players, which would have a very big impact on the final result of the fortress war.

One of Nie Yan's main purposes in coming here was also for Brilliant Cutlass's Eternal equipment. It was already good to have a set of Gold-grade Eternal equipment, but if he could put together a set of Dark Gold Eternal equipment, that would be awesome. Currently, they had already collected three pieces of Dark Gold Eternal equipment, including gauntlets, armor, and leggings, but they were still far from collecting the full set. He estimated that it would take at least three days to clear the Eternal City again before it would be possible to collect the full set.

While the Ni Ren Tribe was nervously clearing the Eternal City, Holy Light Flame and the Holy Roman Empire had several more major battles. Holy Light Flame was really anxious this time. Originally, with a strong ally like the Triumphant Empire, their fortress war burden would be much lighter. The sudden accident caught Holy Light Flame off guard. The elites of the Triumphant Empire who were originally prepared to participate in the fortress war were wiped out in one fell swoop, and seven or eight out of ten were imprisoned in Carol City's prison. They suddenly lost a strong ally and were now fighting alone.

Holy Light Flame began to snipe the elites of the Holy Roman Empire everywhere, suppressing the Holy Roman Empire, and then transferred some elites from allies in other cities. Although the one gold coin per person teleportation fee made them very distressed, there was no other way.

Many people from the Holy Roman Empire did indeed fall into Holy Light Flame's hands, but they immediately began to counterattack, so the melee between the two major guilds began again.

People from Holy Light Flame were searching everywhere for the movements of the Ni Ren Tribe's elites. What frustrated them was that the Ni Ren Tribe's elite forces had disappeared into thin air, nowhere to be found, which made them very puzzled. Could it be that the Ni Ren Tribe's people didn't come out to level up at all? They couldn't have imagined that the Ni Ren Tribe's elites were currently clearing content in a level forty map.

The Triumphant Empire also wanted to retaliate against the Ni Ren Tribe, and were sniping the Ni Ren Tribe's people everywhere. In the melee, all four major guilds were dragged in.

The scope of the war became wider and wider, involving more and more guilds. Both sides were pulling in allies.

A conspiracy, secretly controlled by Nie Yan and Half-Asleep Fox, quietly unfolded. About twenty players from the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire invited more than ten people from the Temple of Galan to level up together. Those ten or so people all had very good relationships within the Temple of Galan. The Ni Ren Tribe deliberately leaked their whereabouts to the Triumphant Empire and Holy Light Flame. Soon, they were surrounded by hundreds of people from the Triumphant Empire and Holy Light Flame. As a result, without a doubt, nearly forty people were all sent back to town.

The Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire then began to gather people, chasing and killing those from Holy Light Flame everywhere. The Temple of Galan remained silent, so the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire mocked the Temple of Galan's people as cowards and weaklings. Although the ten or so Temple of Galan players who had been killed were suppressed by Fa Lan, they really couldn't stand that kind of frustration. Each of them led more than a hundred people, and began to chase and kill people from the Triumphant Empire and Holy Light Flame.

Soon, the Temple of Galan was also dragged into the melee. Casualties on both sides increased. The Temple of Galan also became enraged. Although they had always remained neutral, they had long been disgusted by the arrogance of the Triumphant Empire. This melee was even more merciless. Later, Fa Lan couldn't suppress it anymore. If he forcibly ordered these players to stop, it would definitely trigger a wave of quitting the guild.

Fa Lan carefully examined the entire incident and found that the development of this matter was really a bit strange. Why would the people from the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire suddenly invite people from the Temple of Galan to level up together, and moreover, they invited people who had some connections and prestige in the Temple of Galan, and less than an hour after leveling up, they were immediately ambushed by the Triumphant Empire and Holy Light Flame. After those ten or so Temple of Galan players were killed, the players from the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire gathered a large number of members and fiercely chased and killed the Triumphant Empire and Holy Light Flame, while ridiculing the Temple of Galan for swallowing their anger and not daring to fight back. Moreover, there were also many people within the Temple of Galan stirring up trouble. Which of those ten or so players wasn't influential in the Temple of Galan? How could they stand this kind of humiliation? So they called their friends and allies and attacked the Triumphant Empire and Holy Light Flame, dragging the Temple of Galan into the melee.

In the end, the people under him were all fighting in a group, and the situation once lost control. Fa Lan could only turn a blind eye and helplessly accept this fact, cursing in his heart that he had been schemed against by Nie Yan and Half-Asleep Fox this time. These two old foxes were really too cunning!

With the Temple of Galan fighting like this with Holy Light Flame and the Triumphant Empire, Holy Light Flame and the Triumphant Empire would definitely think that the Temple of Galan was in cahoots with the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire. They couldn't clear their names, and were forced onto the Liangshan Mountain, tied to the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire. If the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire collapsed in the future, the Temple of Galan wouldn't have a good time either.

Fa Lan cursed Nie Yan and Half-Asleep Fox to death in his heart, and could only helplessly accept this fact.

Could the Temple of Galan still stay out of it from now on?

From now on, the Temple of Galan would have no choice but to join the alliance of the Ni Ren Tribe and the Holy Roman Empire.
