“F*ck!”.

Fearless cursed upon seeing the system notification.

In his hurry, he carelessly forgot to ask about the number of people required.

Seeing the notification, their hearts all sank. The first blood had been stolen, were they going to make it for the first ten special reward?

“Let’s call out for people,” Wang Yu suggested. The Sanguine Alliance had so many people, they just needed to get 5 more. The Sanguine Arsenal would be more than happy to lend their members anyway.

Fearless looked below, “It’s too late.”.

The path from the Twilight City to the Dusk Peak took more than ten minutes, this excluded the time they needed to scale the mountain. The other players who were at the foot of the mountain were now almost at the peak. By the time their backup came, they would not be part of the first ten entrants.

“What do we do then? We went through all that to come up here, we can’t just give up,” Boson asked.

“Well… Spears and his group are coming up soon right, we’ll join forces…” Fearless said sheepishly.

“…” the crowd was speechless.

“Team up with Spears? He would jump at the opportunity to kill us all, you trust him?” Ming Du glared at Fearless.

“Of course not,” Fearless replied.

“What’s the point then?”.

“If his party doesn’t have the required number of people, he would be willing to…” Fearless smiled sheepishly.

“Alright, whatever you say!” Ming Du shrugged.

Wang Yu said, “They have about 20 men, how could it be not enough?”.

“Hmm…” a wicked smile appeared on many of their faces upon hearing Wang Yu’s words.

A bead of sweat broke on Wang Yu’s forehead, did they want to absolve that fact?

A few minutes later, Spears and his bunch reached the peal as Fearless approached him passionately and said, “Spears, it’s been tough on you…”.

Seeing Fearless come up so suddenly, Spears jumped back in shock, “My god, stay away from me Fearless you dog.”.

Fearless replied, “Don’t be like that, we’re old acquaintances, we’re all old now, there’s no need to assume that we only have harmful intentions for each other right?”.

“What? Have you gone mad?” Spears asked suspiciously.

Fearless replied, “There’s no use beating about the bush. You know how powerful my men are, why don’t we form a team?”.

“?” Spears immediate reaction was filled with suspicion as he laughed. “HAHA! You don’t have enough members to enter the dungeon? You deserve it! It’s karma!”.

“Yeah, we don’t have enough members, let’s form a team,” Fearless pleaded.

Seeing the demoralised looks of the Quan Zhen Sect members, Spears was in high spirits as he smiled, “Hahaha, our team has enough members, why do we have to team up with you?”.

Fearless said, “Spears, my brother, I know I haven’t treated you the best in the past…”.

“Cut the crap, it’s too late to apologise,” Spears waved to his comrades as he signalled to them to enter the dungeon.

Fearless disagreed, “No, it’s not too late, this apology is for what is about to happen.”.

“What do you mean by this?” Spears asked.

“Hehe, nothing,” Ming Du smiled as he raised his staff. Fire and thunder rained down.

“I knew it…”.

Seeing the expressions of the Quan Zhen Sect’s members, Wang Yu thought that this might happen, but he never truly expected it.

“F*ck you!” screamed Spears, seeing that his men had been turned to dust within a millisecond.

He charged at Fearless as Boson flew over to intercept him, clashing with Spears.

“Ｄｕａｎｇ…”

The clash between the two were not the clashes of skill, but a clash of pure force, the sound was resounding.

Even though Spears was extremely powerful, there was still a gap between him and Boson. Moreover, Boson had charged over from a favourable angle, Spears was sent flying.

“F*ck you Boson! Mind your own business!”.

Spears howled as he picked himself up and charged at Fearless with his spear.

Ming Du whispered to Wang Yu, “Spears is becoming dumber and dumber, Boson and Fearless are basically brothers, how could Boson not intervene?”.

“…” Wang Yu was speechless.

Just as Ming Du had said, Boson would never have left Fearless alone. Seeing that Spears was charging at Fearless again, Boson swung his sword and blocked his charge, parrying Spears’ weapon and body slamming him. With a swing of his blade, he slashed Spears across the stomach and knocked him aside.

Fearless called pretentiously behind Boson, “Why oh why brother Spears, haven’t we forgiven each other?”.

“F*ck you!!” Spears screamed as he glared at Fearless.

“Now that you don’t have enough members as well, let’s form a team,” Fearless said.

“No!” Spears huffed and puffed.

“The first ten entrants get a special reward, if we get a perfect run, we might even get the pinnacle of equipment,” Fearless tempted him.

“Cut your crap, would you give that to me?” Spears called Fearless out on his bull**. He had known the Quan Zhen Sect for so many years, he knew how moral they were.

“Hmph! Do you know who opened this dungeon?” Fearless barked as he pointed to Iron Bull after seeing that his soft approach didn’t work.

Spears barked back, “So what? You guys won’t be able to enter even if you have him!”.

There were billions of people playing this game, each one of them had a different skill level. If a player slackened off for a day, the gap would widen or close. If Wang Yu had the ability to overcome this, Spears was still afraid of him.

“We cannot enter, but haven’t you heard the system notification? This dungeon is one that pays its debts, Iron Bull will be the beneficiary,” Fearless said.

“…” Spears was stunned. He knew what this meant- since Wang Yu was the beneficiary, he could set entry limits for different teams to enter. If he set an astronomical cost for the Apocalypse guild, there was no way they would ever enter the dungeon, hampering their progression.

After some consideration, Spears said, “We can team up, but under one condition- the loots and equipment have to be distributed randomly, by RNG.”.

“Alright, that’s fine,” Fearless nodded as he sent out party invites to Spears and the other survivors.

Wang Yu asked curiously in the channel, “Why did he agree?”.

“The coward is scared that you would manipulate the costs of entering the dungeon,” Fearless answered.

“What? Isn’t that determined by the system? Why would I have the power to decide that?”.

Fearless laughed, “He doesn’t know…”.
