“I will now give you some simple quests. You do not need to do much. The Experience points and gold coins are practically free!” Jiang Fei said after silencing the players who had given rotten opinions. He then proceeded to explain his plan.

Firstly, Jiang Fei gave his guild members a straightforward quest which was to spy on the Dragon race’s nest. Initially, the quest only required around fifty players to complete. However, since Jiang Fei intended to help his guild members to the best of his ability, he decided to let all of them take on the quest.

After all, the system only had limitations in terms of the level of difficulty and rewards. It had not mentioned anything about repeating quests. Therefore, Jiang Fei exploited the system by giving the same quest to multiple players.

As for members of Empyreal Dragon, it did not matter where they trained. Since they would gain additional Experience points from training near the Dragon race’s nest, it was a good deal all the same.

These players would not need to do much apart from loitering around the Dragon race’s nest. As long as the system was able to detect their presence in the area, they would be perceived as spying on the Dragon race. Naturally, they would all receive the associated rewards from the quest.

Although the rewards were not particularly grand, it would still add up to a hefty sum over time. Therefore, as long as these players trained near the Dragon race’s nest, they would still earn a lot of Experience points and gold coins after some time.

After issuing the quest, Jiang Fei announced that the group leaders could now bring their group members to start on the spying quest. Jiang Fei only asked the core members to stay behind. After all, there was some highly important and secret information which Jiang Fei did not want too many people to know about.

“Alright! We’re the only ones left. I would like to tell all of you about my plan,” Jiang Fei said after seeing that Lady Casanova, Seven Stars Warrior,, and Rosette Rose were the only core members left.

“The Dark Faction is preparing to go to war against the Dragon race. In fact, the Dark Faction has formed an alliance with the Oceanic race!” Jiang Fei said solemnly.

“Damn! The Dragon race is in big trouble!” Seven Stars Warrior inhaled sharply. Now that the Oceanic race had fully united their people, the Merfolks had taken over full control of the oceans. Their capabilities are even stronger than the individual Light and Dark factions. If they formed an alliance with the Dark Faction, the Dragon race would not stand a chance.

“That’s right! Therefore, I plan to help the few of you acquire the Title of Dragon Slayer!” Jiang Fei laughed as he said.

“Really!? That’s awesome!” Seven Stars Warrior’s eyes lit up. The Title of Dragon Slayer was not easy to acquire. In fact, one must slay one of the Intermediate Overlord Dragons to earn the Title. Slaying the Dragons in dungeons which did not have any intelligence, did not count. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ (f)ir(e).nᴇt

However, it was nearly impossible to kill an intelligent Overlord which could easily wipe out an entire group of players.

“I’m not interested!” Rosette Rose waved her hands. She had already become a non-combatant player and had lost interest in battles and the likes since a long time ago. All she focused on now was accumulating wealth.

For Rosette Rose, money was only a figure. Her real motive was to make Empyreal Dragon the biggest empire in the entire game.

Although Empyreal Dragon was already the number one guild in the entire Dark Faction, and perhaps even the entire game, it was still not powerful enough to wreak havoc on the entire system. Therefore, Rosette Rose still had a long way to go before Empyreal Dragon could truly dominate the game.

“Guild master, being a Dragon Slayer, is boring. When can you help me get the Title above your head?” Little Rain said greedily.

“The Title on my head?” Jiang Fei was stunned at first. However, he soon realized what Little Rain had meant. There was the irreplaceable Title of Mark of the Godslayer above his head.

“Dream on. That was a complete coincidence. If I were to bump into a Celestial again, I might be tortured and sent back to the Beginner’s Village!” Jiang Fei rolled his eyes. He was only able to kill the Evil God Solan because it was Ou Yezi’s plan. If Ou Yezi had not prepared the Heavenly Thunder for Jiang Fei in advance, and if Solan had not underestimated Jiang Fei in the first place, Jiang Fei would have been killed within a second when he first met Solan.

“Hehe, I was just joking...” Little Rain shrugged. He was indeed only joking. He did not even know where to find a Celestial.

“Cut the crap. Let me tell you guys about my plan. Slaying a Dragon is not an easy feat. We do not need to sacrifice our own men. Thus, I am thinking of baiting the other guilds to take the brunt of the damage for us!” Jiang Fei said.

“Guild master, how do you plan on doing that?” Lady Casanova asked.

“I plan to create two better equipment which I can then use to reward the other bigger guilds by using them as bait to lure the Dragon race. I am hoping to capture one of the Dragons that gets left behind,” Jiang Fei said and laughed. Usually, Jiang Fei would not be able to get other more prominent guilds to carry out his bidding. However, now that he could issue quests, Jiang Fei believed that the other guilds would agree to do what he asked as long as the rewards were good enough.

“Do we need to do anything?” Seven Stars Warrior asked.

“I need you guys to not be jealous...” Jiang Fei chuckled. He needed to spend a bit of his own wealth so that the other more prominent guilds would be willing to sacrifice for him. After all, the other more prominent guilds were not dumb. They would surely know how dangerous such quests were. If the benefits were not good enough, they would not be willing to take on such risks.

“Guild master, what do you plan to use as bait?” Rosette Rose asked. She was concerned with anything that required money and resources.

“I want to create a batch of equipment at the Ancient grade or above!” Jiang Fei said.

When issuing quests, Jiang Fei could either promise to reward players with equipment pre-determined by the system or choose to use his own equipment as rewards. In order to lure the other guilds, Jiang Fei decided to create a batch of high quality equipment for them.

Ever since Jiang Fei obtained the Cauldron of Creation, he had not been able to find time to create equipment. Due to the interference of various events in real life, Jiang Fei had very limited time in the game. As soon as he logged into the game, he would bring his guild members to clear dungeons. After that, he would also have to develop his relationships with the ladies as instructed by 0541. He could barely find time to create equipment.

As most players had reached higher levels, they needed better equipment which took longer to create. Therefore, mass-producing equipment took a lot of time.

“I don’t care about anything else. However, you must make sure you earn that amount of money needed to buy the ingredients!” Rosette Rose said sternly. She would make sure that even the guild master paid for what he wanted.
