Ding~

—”System announcement: Congratulations to Player “Fu Sheng”. He has successfully destroyed Blood Swamp of Dark Shrine! He is rewarded with 500,000 EXP, 10 gold coins, 2,000 Guild of Light Reputation, and 50 Merit Points!”

—”System announcement: Congratulations to Player “Wantless”. He has successfully destroyed Blood Swamp of Dark Shrine! He is rewarded with 500,000 EXP, 10 gold coins, 2,000 Guild of Light Reputation, and 50 Merit Points!

All players in Midolhaar were stunned by the announcement!

“WHAT? Blood Swamp was destroyed??”

“I’ve been training recruits here for 3 days and have not even stepped out. To think someone destroyed Blood Swamp... There are always pros out there.”

“Fu Sheng? Why is this name so familiar?”

“Ah! Isn’t he the one who fought bravely in City of Light and was mistaken as an NPC by most people? He is in Midolhaar!”

At the same time, Wantless revived and looked at the barren ground. He asked in a confused tone, “What happened?”

“Thanks to your Arcane Cage, the explosion was this effective. If not, we would be having a tough fight with the Bloody Skeletons right now.” Lin Jie smiled and said, “We won! We have destroyed Blood Swamp. I think your mission is completed too.”

Wantless checked the task list and nodded. “Indeed.”

“Also, I must admit something since I revived first.” Lin Jie pointed at the battlefield. “Blood Wizard Larek didn’t drop any loots.”

“Because you blew it up!” Wantless stared at him.

Lin Jie coughed and passed him a heart from the ground. “Well, I kept a present for you. Blood Wizard Larek was a strong Wind Mage, and after turning into a demon, his heart became the strongest thing on him. With this, you can enchant 50 Intelligence and 50 Magic Attack to your weapon, as well as learn Floating Magic. It can be said that it is a Sub-Legendary item.”

Wantless took the heart and stared at it for a moment before throwing it back to Lin Jie. “You executed the plan, I have no right to keep it.”

“Sure, I’ll sell it then.” Lin Jie nodded without hesitation.

“Who asked you to sell it?” Wantless was really annoyed. “We have a bet, remember? After a week, I’ll use an item of equivalent value and trade for it,” he said.

“Okay. Just to confirm, our bet is: If my level is higher than yours by the end of a week, then I’ll win, right?” Lin Jie’s eyes lit up and said. “Let’s finish the missions then.”

Wantless looked at Lin Jie’s level. He was only 31. Although he had died in the fight too, Wantless had [Scapegoat], which allowed him to lose his current EXP to 0% of the when he was killed instead of dropping levels. The item was so rare that even Lin Jie did not have it.

That made Wantless level 33, which was 2 levels higher than Lin Jie!

‘I’ll definitely win the abet this time!’ Wantless thought to himself.

“Let’s go then!”

Guild of Light Camp in Midolhaar.

There were two rows of paladins, with their heads raised and their chests out. They looked very formal with their lances on the side. Many players were wondering what the NPCs were doing.

Lin Jie and Wantless were confused by this parade.

Only people who deserved great honor shall receive such welcome!

“Human from the alternate realms, you have not failed me!” A deep voice came, and people started feeling agitated again.

“It’s Grey! Guild Raid Commander!”

“I can’t believe he has shown his face now...”

The commander stood in front of them, smiling.

“Welcome back, warriors.” The commander smiled and said, “You have completed your tasks splendidly. This is your reward as promised!”

Ding~

—’You have completed the mission [Destroy Blood Swamp]. You are rewarded with 850,000 EXP, 30 gold coins, 1,500 Guild of Light Reputation, 100 Merit Points, and 120 Authority Points in leading Middle-Class Paladins.”

Most of the EXP lost in the death was retrieved now. But none of this worthed more compared to the authority to lead! This meant that in Midolhaar, Lin Jie could fight a war with Middle-Class Paladins now!

There were multiple grades in the Authority Points too. A Middle-Class Paladin needed 120 Authority Points. However, Lin Jie could exchange his points to a lower one with 10 times more, so that he could control 10 Low-Class Paladins.

However, this exchange was only one-way down.

Grey smiled and said, “120 points. You can pick my men anytime you want. But I have a better idea...”

Lin Jie was excited. “Idea?”

There was only a very slim chance for the mission to trigger a continuous mission—Fateful Guardian. Players could use the points in leading the army to adopt a kid that would grow into a man in just a year.

Sure enough, Grey beckoned, and a dirty little boy came out from behind. He looked at Lin Jie with a timid look and bowed.

With a smile, Gray said, “This child has been lucky to survive in the battle of Midolhaar. If you want, you can use 120 Middle-Class Authority Points to take him. Maybe under your tutelage, he will grow into a hero.”

Lin Jie used an Inspect and was very excited about the stats!

[Pathetic Jimmy] (Bronze NPC)

Level 10

Health Points: 150

Attack: 10-14

Defense: 5

The child had no equipment, and the attributes were really bad. But in Lin’s memory, Jimmy had another nickname, Ghost King! In Lin Jie’s previous life, Jimmy’s master had been an unknown player. Jimmy’s occupation was Paladin, but after a series of changes, he could be turned into a ghoul at any time. It was comparable to a soldier in a Dark Gold suit and could control the dead.

Lin Jie touched the child’s head and said, “He looks good. I’ll take him.”

Ding~

—’Your Authority Points in Midolhaar dropped by 120. You’ve gained a soldier [Jimmy].’

Lin Jie took out some low-level items and passed them to Jimmy. At the same time, he passed Jimmy 5 loaves of bread, 5 vats of water, and 100 potions.

Commander Grey was very satisfied with Lin Jie and said, “Thanks for your generosity. Jimmy will grow into a tough man.”

Lin Jie saw his chance and asked, “Lord Grey, I’m going to Devils Fork later, and it will be too dangerous for Jimmy. Is it possible to let Jimmy train under you for a while in Midolhaar? So that he can learn Holy Light.”

Grey thought for a moment and agreed. “Sure, but you must come back every few months. Jimmy might be facing problems later.”

“That will not be an issue!” Lin Jie was delighted!

Since the Sub-Legendary Paladin would take care of Jimmy, Lin Jie was happy. Jimmy’s future would be very successful. It was like putting a little child into a golden cave. How much gold he could bring out depended on his skill. However, Lin Jie intended to develop Jimmy into Ghost King in the future, and he would face problems in life.

Wantless had no interest in raising a child. He chose a level 40 Protection Paladin, which made a lot of sense, especially since he would be traveling the desert.

[Guardian of Midolhaar]

Level: 40

Health Points: 2,500

Attack Power: 245-300

Defense: 340

Skills: Holy Shield, Holy Light, Divine Shield, Justice Marking

Although the Protection Paladin did not look strong, he had a super-powerful recovery speed.

After getting his ‘follower,’ Wantless was exhilarated and was about to take him for a test.

Lin Jie said, “Wait, let’s deal with our matter now.”

Wantless was shocked/ “Why? You think you can overtake me now?”

“Yeap.” Lin Jie nodded seriously, which worried Wantless. He took out a Runestone of the Undead Language and passed it to Grey. “Commander, this is what we want.”

Blood Wizard Larek and the 5 Scouts had not been absorbed into the stone. Instead, they had been transformed into stored EXP. The stored EXP would allow Lin Jie to level up very soon! 2,408! Even if a 100-man team were to attack the same map, they’d need at least a few days to clear it!

“Good! Since you did what I’ve asked, you will be rewarded!” Grey stood still and waved his hand...

Swoosh!

Wantless stared in disbelief when two gold lights shone on Lin Jie.

Suddenly, Lin Jie surpassed Wantless in the leaderboard for levels! He ranked first now!

Level 33, 45%. The reward was really generous! It was not hard to think how good the EXP was, especially when the map was supposed to be cleared with a normal team. Lin Jie was much more effective, and thus, more superior by others.

“LOL, I win. Please keep your promise.” Lin Jie smiled.

Wantless stared at him in awe and said after processing everything in his brain, “If you are so good, you must be quite famous now. Wait, what are you known as in the game?”

“Maybe you’ve heard of me before... My name is Codename Lone Wolf.”

“You... are Lone Wolf!” Wantless was shocked at first but soon realized. “You want me in Savage Blade?”

Lin Jie nodded and said, “If you want to join forever, you’re most welcome.”

“LOL. It’s okay, I prefer being free. Joining a guild or team is very troublesome. I don’t fit there.” Wantless waved his hands. “I still have something to do, call me if you need me!”

Wantless sent a friend request and left.

The onlookers had dispersed by now. Thus, Lin Jie took out the Blood Essence carefully and walked into the commander’s room.
