Chapter 173 Forming a Guild

For a guild to be truly strong and united, the leader's personal charisma is very important.

Su Youyou looked at Sanjie Buliu and said, "Brother Sanjie, if you agree, we are all willing to help."

Sanjie Buliu nodded and said, "Alright, actually forming a guild isn't a particularly difficult thing." With Nie Yan as the investor, everything was easy.

They signed an agreement.

"What's the guild called?" Nie Yan asked.

"I thought of a name, Song of Heaven, how about it? It's the name of a team I formed before," Sanjie Buliu said.

"Song of Heaven?" Nie Yan was stunned, an unbelievable expression on his face. He froze.

"What's wrong? Is the name bad?" Sanjie Buliu asked, puzzled as to why Nie Yan was so surprised.

"It's nothing, the name is quite good, let's call it Song of Heaven," Nie Yan said. His surprise wasn't because there was anything wrong with the name Song of Heaven. He remembered that in his previous life, the Satrin Empire did indeed have a guild called Song of Heaven, which rose up later. It once reached the top three in the Satrin Empire, and it controlled more than twenty fortresses. However, it was defeated in the war with Angel Corps. Song of Heaven was defeated and the guild disbanded. It was said that in a competition, the leader of Song of Heaven once killed Angyi Tianshi (Archangel).

As for whether the leader of Song of Heaven was Sanjie Buliu, Nie Yan had forgotten. He paid little attention to things in the Satrin Empire at the time, only focusing on leveling and earning money.

Nie Yan's participation had already changed history. With the support of Nirvana Flame's guild, would Song of Heaven still collapse like in his previous life?

"Song of Heaven, that name sounds pretty good," Su Youyou said, having a good feeling about the guild name.

Nie Yan didn't expect that he would unintentionally participate in the creation of Song of Heaven.

The corpses on the ground slowly disappeared, and after a while, one shaman after another arrived.

"Sanjie, why did you call us over?" A tall, thin shaman walked over and patted Sanjie Buliu on the shoulder, asking. His gaze inadvertently swept over Nie Yan, and he suddenly felt that Nie Yan looked familiar. He stared at Nie Yan's face for a long time, his mouth gaping wide enough to swallow an egg. He pointed at Nie Yan, "He, he, he..."

He simply couldn't believe his eyes.

"Chenlun, he what?" Another shaman, wearing a gray priest's robe, who had just arrived, slapped his hand away and glanced at the person he was pointing at. He was immediately dumbfounded, his eyes wide.

"Nirvana Flame the Thief?"

"I must be dreaming."

Nie Yan looked at the ten shamans who had arrived and greeted them with a smile, "Hello everyone."

"You... hello." The player named Chenlun Xin reacted first, his voice trembling with excitement.

"Sanjie, is he really Nirvana Flame the Thief?"

They still couldn't believe it.

"Of course," Sanjie Buliu chuckled, seeing their reaction, he felt a little more balanced. His reaction just now was similar to these shamans.

Upon receiving Sanjie Buliu's confirmation, they were all shocked.

"Why did you call us over?" They looked at Sanjie Buliu and asked. With Nirvana Flame the Thief here, they keenly realized that Sanjie Buliu must have called them over for something important.

"I want you to help with a quest, it will take about a day."

"Is it dangerous?" Chenlun Xin asked.

"Very dangerous, we should wipe out, I don't know how many times. The reward for a day is two thousand gold coins, and if we wipe out, the losses will be compensated at market price," Sanjie Buliu said.

Two thousand gold coins a day was a very high reward for them. At their current level, taking on ordinary quests would give them about five hundred gold coins a day, which was already pretty good.

They couldn't help but be a little speechless. As expected, Nirvana Flame the Thief was different from ordinary employers.

"I'm in."

"I'm in too."

They didn't continue to haggle. Two thousand gold coins was already a very high price, and if they haggled with Nie Yan any further, they would seem greedy.

Sanjie Buliu looked at Nie Yan and said, "They are all brothers I'm very familiar with, absolutely trustworthy."

Nie Yan nodded. Although he hadn't known him for long, he had a good understanding of Sanjie Buliu's character and morals. Since these people were considered trustworthy brothers by Sanjie Buliu, they shouldn't be bad.

"With you saying that, we have no choice but to give it our all," Chenlun Xin said with a wry smile.

After a while, one human thief after another arrived, and the number of people increased, to about two hundred. These people were all top thieves from the guild, Nirvana Flame's guild. Sun, Wangzhe Tianxia, and Xiaorong Bushi Weiwo were not among them. Sun and Wangzhe Tianxia were still underground and hadn't returned, and Xiaorong had gone to do a quest. Luonande Qingwa and Wudao were there. Many thieves in the guild were not well-known, because Nie Yan and the others were too dazzling, overshadowing them. When players mentioned Nirvana Flame's guild, they would inevitably think of Nie Yan, Sun, Wangzhe Tianxia, and Xiaorong Bushi Weiwo, and few would notice them. But in fact, although they were unknown, and could only be considered second-tier in Nirvana Flame's guild, their skills were no worse than many top-tier thieves outside. After all, their skills were learned from Nie Yan, Sun, and the others, and their equipment was also very good, with nearly half of them wearing high-level gear with reduced requirements.

"Guild Leader Nirvana Flame, we're here," Luonande Qingwa walked over and said.

"Guild Leader Nirvana Flame."

The thieves greeted Nie Yan one after another, all of them a little excited.

Nie Yan nodded and said, "Start forming teams, nineteen thieves plus one shaman priest per team, divided into ten teams."

Everyone immediately busied themselves.

Nie Yan had people go to the Orc Royal City of the Satrin Empire to purchase some rebirth emblems and distribute them to each shaman priest. The rebirth emblem could set the rebirth time, the shortest being ten seconds, and the longest being half an hour, with only a sliver of health after rebirth. At the same time, after using the rebirth emblem once, there was a fifty-second cooldown.

Even with these ten teams, they were still vulnerable in front of the level 130 Demon Slaughterer, but holding off the Demon Slaughterer for a few minutes should be enough. Nie Yan would personally retrieve the treasure. As for whether he could escape the Demon Slaughterer's pursuit with the contents, it was a huge test for Nie Yan.

"Let's go in."

They and their party set off towards the center of the Black Elf Tribe.

At this time, Angyi Tianshi, who was in the Orc Royal City, had already received the news of his team's defeat and was furious.

"What is Nirvana Flame the Thief's current location?" Angyi Tianshi asked, feeling a deep sense of helplessness towards Nie Yan. He had also watched the video of Qing An using himself as bait to set a trap to kill Nie Yan. In that situation, Nirvana Flame the Thief was still not dead.

Nirvana Flame the Thief was so arrogant in his territory, but he couldn't do anything about it, which was the most frustrating thing.

"It is said that he is still in the Black Elf Tribe, should we send someone over?" Lieyan, who was beside him, asked.

Angyi Tianshi shook his head and said, "Just send a few thieves to follow them and see what they are planning to do."

Angyi Tianshi frowned and pondered. It was very difficult to kill Nirvana Flame the Thief by ordinary means. With the growth of Nirvana Flame's guild, Angel Corps' advantage was being eroded little by little. If there were no breakthroughs, Angel Corps would eventually decline.

"Boss, Shaq has just changed to a top-tier class," Lieyan had just received the news.

"Well, let him come to the guild headquarters," Angyi Tianshi nodded. He was gratified that Angel Corps currently had five top-tier classes, although the number was still far less than Nirvana Flame's guild.

"He just received a quest and can't come," Lieyan explained.

Inside the Black Elf Tribe, Nie Yan and the others advanced along the street. Holy Knight Leffers waved the greatsword in his hand, adding a series of status skills to the thieves, greatly increasing their attributes.

The black elf guards on the street spotted Nie Yan and the others and immediately rushed up.

Nie Yan controlled the Golden Earth Dragon to charge forward, withstanding the attacks of the black elf melee units. Counter-attack storms swept away a large area. Some black elves tried to bypass the Golden Earth Dragon and were immediately targeted by the thieves of Nirvana Flame's guild. They used control skills in turn to control them until they were stunned to death.

A large number of corpses lay on the road.

They slowly approached the central square of the Black Elf Tribe.

"Boss, news from the Orc Royal City, a thief named Shaq from Angel Corps has changed to Shadow Dancer," Luonande Qingwa looked at the guild group chat and said.

"Shaq?" Nie Yan suddenly remembered such a person. Butcher Shaq, in his previous life, this guy had been firmly in the position of the number one thief in the Satrin Empire for a long time. At that time, no thief in the Satrin Empire could compare to him. He retired later and was gradually forgotten by the players. At that time, his fame was no lower than Sun, Xiaorong Bushi Weiwo, Ying Sha, and others, but his activity area was generally in the Satrin Empire. The most surprising thing was that Butcher Shaq's real age was already over fifty years old. Generally, at this age, physical strength, agility, and so on would decline significantly, and few players in their forties and fifties could still make it to the rankings. Butcher Shaq was a special case.

That guy was called a butcher, not just for show. It was estimated that even Butcher Shaq himself didn't know how many players he had killed. He had always been a super red name, but no one had ever heard of anyone killing him.

Nie Yan remembered that Butcher Shaq had indeed stayed in Angel Corps for a while.

Elf thief, Nie Yan frowned slightly. A top-tier thief like Butcher Shaq, coupled with the superior talents of the elf thief, was definitely very difficult to deal with.
