These items were, without exception, extremely rare treasures. If they were thrown into the market, they would all be outrageously expensive. However, market demand was minimal, unable to absorb so much. Therefore, they could only be kept for personal use.

Guo Huai took stock. The production profession skill books and materials that Nie Yan had given him would allow the Niuren Tribe to cultivate a large number of high-end production profession players, which would be of great help to the Niuren Tribe.

Nie Yan's trip to the Ancient World was truly fruitful. The value of these items was immeasurable.

"Distribute these items to the promising production profession players below. Keep those exclusive production profession skill books in the guild warehouse. Anyone who's interested can take them and use them," Nie Yan said, glancing at his bag. Aside from the crystal cores, he had cleared out everything he didn't need. He had a special use for the crystal cores in his bag.

"Alright, I'll distribute them immediately," Guo Huai nodded.

Production profession players often provided powerful support to the frontline members and were also very important. One of the reasons why the Niuren Tribe was so powerful was because it had a group of powerful production professions as its backbone. In particular, the Starry Night Pharmacy had already occupied about 60% of the market share in the Greenland Empire. It generated a large amount of profit every day and provided the best benefits to its employees compared to other pharmacies. As a result, more and more good pharmacists were gathering in the Starry Night Pharmacy, so the Niuren Tribe never lacked any potions. The Starry Night Pharmacy could be said to have contributed greatly to the Niuren Tribe's development to its current level. Not only pharmacists, but the Niuren Tribe also attached great importance to mechanics, alchemists, enchanters, blacksmiths, and so on. There were a large number of production profession players, so these production profession skill books from Nie Yan could be of great use.

The Niuren Tribe was like a child. Nie Yan used various methods, including investing a large amount of money, filling it with the equipment he had obtained, and recruiting experts everywhere, to gradually make the Niuren Tribe stronger, to the point where no force could suppress the rise of the Niuren Tribe.

Next was the time for him to collect debts with interest. Angel Corps, Century Financial Group, and the Monet Financial Group, which had been making frequent moves recently, were all his targets.

"How many flying mounts do we have?" Nie Yan asked. Flying mounts were also very important.

"We're relatively behind in the development of flying mounts. Currently, the entire Niuren Tribe only has a little over thirty flying mounts. We fought with Angel Corps in the Griffin Woodlands a few times before, and lost at least thirty flying mounts. Angel Corps' air advantage is too great. They started developing earlier, and Angellic Wings is simply sparing no effort in developing flying mounts. They often send tens of thousands of people to explore the Griffin Woodlands at a time, and our people are heavily besieged. I estimate that they have at least one or two hundred flying mounts, maybe even more. Other guilds should also have quite a few, and they're also vigorously developing air cavalry," Guo Huai said. Flying mounts were the only weakness of the Niuren Tribe. They started late and invested less.

"Where is our elite team now?" Nie Yan asked. If the number of flying mounts was too small, the problem would be very serious. Although ironclad catapults were not afraid of flying mounts, it was difficult for ironclad catapults to defend against flying mounts, because the area that ironclad catapults could defend was very limited, and flying mounts could attack every corner of the battlefield.

"The elite team is currently in the Griffin Woodlands, with about five thousand people. About fifty or sixty of the top players have reached level 100 or above. I've sent them to advance to top-tier classes. So that team is led by a knight," Guo Huai said. The Niuren Tribe's harvest in searching the Griffin Woodlands could only be considered average, barely passable. In the Griffin Woodlands, it wasn't enough to have strength, you also had to rely on luck. When luck was bad, there was often no harvest for a whole day. When luck was good, a few teams could get two or three flying mounts a day, which was already very amazing. Many of the Niuren Tribe's flying mounts were obtained by using Mist Dispelling Scrolls.

Nie Yan pondered for a moment. He did have a way to quickly capture flying mounts.

"I'll make a trip to the Griffin Woodlands," Nie Yan said. If he could get more flying mounts for the Niuren Tribe, it would definitely be very helpful for the upcoming war.

Nie Yan bid farewell to Guo Huai and came out of Cripps Fortress. Before going to the Griffin Woodlands, he had to make some necessary preparations. He replenished some potions in Carroll City and then set off. His destination was the Puppet Castle.

Nie Yan looked at the level leaderboard. There were already many players above level 100 on the leaderboard. The highest level was 105. He had stayed in the Ancient World for so long, so his level had naturally fallen behind, but even if those players were much higher level than him, they couldn't possibly be his opponent. An ordinary first-class job encountering a top-tier job, even if the level was sixty or seventy levels higher, it would still be impossible to be a top-tier job's opponent. This was the difference in realms. A top-tier job represented absolute power, and had already transcended the power range of an ordinary first-class job.

Nie Yan rode the Darkwing Dragon and flew east for six or seven minutes. A castle appeared in his vision on a distant plain.

Puppet Castle was one of the level 100 maps near Carroll City. Few players used to come here because the monsters here were too high level.

However, at this time, when Nie Yan looked down from the Darkwing Dragon, there were crowds of people below, everywhere players were moving.

Nie Yan frowned. With so many people here, would it affect his plan?

The Darkwing Dragon rapidly descended, reaching a place about sixty or seventy yards above the ground.

Nie Yan chanted a spell on the Darkwing Dragon's back for a while, and then took the Darkwing Dragon back. He jumped off the Darkwing Dragon.

Nie Yan's body fell quickly, and his speed became faster and faster.

Looking at the status of Shadow Dance, falling from a height of sixty or seventy yards was definitely nothing. He didn't use the skill on the Feather Fall gem. With a muffled thud, he landed steadily, a damage of more than sixty points floated above his head. He landed safely.

Nie Yan entered stealth and flew towards the Puppet Castle. The streets of the Puppet Castle were covered with the corpses of rock puppets, scattered all over the place. Looking into the distance, a large group of players gathered in the central square of the Puppet Castle, about two or three thousand people. They should be fighting the Boss.

The Black Magic Puppet spawned in the center of the Puppet Castle. The purpose of his trip was something on the Black Magic Puppet. He was a little depressed that someone else had taken the lead.

There were a few players on the sides of the streets acting as lookouts. Nie Yan swept past them. None of these players noticed him.

Nie Yan noticed the guild badges on these players. They were people from the Glorious Sanctuary. That made things easier.

Xing Zhi Huihuang was commanding his subordinates, more than two thousand people, to attack the Black Magic Puppet in the center, but he found that he had thought too simply. The strength of the Black Magic Puppet far exceeded his imagination. This level 100+ mutated lord was ridiculously strong. They were repelled again and again. They had been here for nearly half an hour, and five or six hundred people had been killed or injured, but the Black Magic Puppet's health hadn't dropped much.

"Warriors, retreat, defensive stance, priests heal!" Seeing the tall Black Magic Puppet rolling over, Xing Zhi Huihuang quickly ordered the people below to evacuate.

The Black Magic Puppet was more than five yards tall, jet-black, and made of rock. The ground shook violently when it walked. Its fighting power was very amazing. With a single punch, three warriors were knocked away and died. It continued to hunt down the Glorious Sanctuary players.

"Boss, we can't hold on, this guy's attack is too high." The warriors in front retreated and shouted.

Xing Zhi Huihuang couldn't help but curse, "Everyone retreat, be careful."

Under the pursuit of the Black Magic Puppet, a large number of corpses fell to the ground.

They finally retreated. A large group of people scattered sparsely on the streets. Looking into the distance, the Black Magic Puppet returned to its wandering state and walked back and forth in the center of the square.

"Boss, the Black Magic Puppet is too fierce, we are not its opponent at all." A player below said.

"Boss, what do we do next?"

"Withdraw." Xing Zhi Huihuang gritted his teeth and said.

"What about those dead team members?"

"We can only forget about it. Find a few thieves to steal their equipment back," Xing Zhi Huihuang said. He selected a few thieves with better skills from the many thieves, preparing to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

At this moment, a figure flashed, and a person appeared less than five yards away from him.

"A thief!" Xing Zhi Huihuang's heart trembled. He took a closer look and found that it was Nie Yan.

"Hello." Nie Yan greeted Xing Zhi Huihuang.

"Hello, how did you get here?" Xing Zhi Huihuang asked in surprise and excitement, looking around. The streets were full of his people, and Nie Yan had sneaked in silently, as if entering an uninhabited land. This was too scary. If Nie Yan wanted to assassinate him, he would already be a cold corpse.

"I'm here for something. How about we deal with the Black Magic Puppet together?" Nie Yan said. He only needed one thing from the Black Magic Puppet.

"I heard you advanced to Shadow Dance?" Xing Zhi Huihuang asked Nie Yan.

"Yeah." Nie Yan smiled and nodded.

"We'll listen to your command. What do you need us to do?" Xing Zhi Huihuang said. Xing Zhi Huihuang admired Nie Yan's character very much. He was also grateful to Nie Yan for saving him last time. If Nie Yan needed his help, he would definitely do it without hesitation.

"I only need one thing from the Black Magic Puppet. Come with me," Nie Yan said. He sped off in the direction of the Black Magic Puppet.

"Everyone follow." Xing Zhi Huihuang quickly led the team to follow behind Nie Yan.

A moment later, Nie Yan appeared behind the Black Magic Puppet and threw a detect skill at the Black Magic Puppet. It had three million health points. Because it was a mutated lord, its health recovery speed was very fast. If it was just Nie Yan alone, it would probably take at least an hour to kill it. With the help of the Glorious Sanctuary, the speed would be much faster.
