Chapter 212: Evelyn's Fist Has Hardened!

As the newcomer appeared, Tie Chui and Evelyn also got a clear look at the other's appearance.

He was a young man with red hair and red pupils, handsome features; an eye color that doesn't exist in reality means he modified his appearance, so his looks can't be taken at face value.

Hearing the newcomer's fluent English, Tie Chui quickly reacted and asked in English about his origin.

"I'm Fenrio." The young man laughed, stepped forward and gave Tie Chui a hug, looking around at the piles of wood stacked like a small hill, "Brother, is this the Luo Yue Guild?"

"Yes." Tie Chui smiled and nodded, "Although we've just started building, this is indeed the Luo Yue Guild."

"That's really great." Fenrio was excited, "Not in vain have I been traveling since yesterday; it looks like I might be the first to arrive at the Luo Yue Guild for the interview?"

"Are Luo and Yue Li here? What kind of interview do I have to undergo? Brother, did you have an interview stage when you joined? What did you go through then?"

Fenrio's rapid-fire questions left Tie Chui somewhat overwhelmed.

But he quickly grasped the crux of the matter, patting Fenrio's shoulder, "Young man, don't rush."

"The president and vice president have gone out to subjugate a secret realm target; just wait calmly until they return for the interview."

"Well, it seems I didn't come at the best time." Fenrio shrugged slightly regretfully, then his expression grew more eager, "There are many rumors outside about Luo and Yue Li's golden talents; as a member of the Luo Yue Guild, you must have seen them display their talents, right?"

"What are their talents? Could you tell me?"

Tie Chui's brow twitched almost imperceptibly as he recalled yesterday, when he was enhancing Luo's spirit beast's equipment, Yue Li demanded a pause and used some ability on Luo.

If nothing unexpected, that was probably the "Wish Command" ability.

Contrary to the outside rumor that Luo is the Wish Command, Yue Li is actually the true Wish Command.

Of course, as a member of the Luo Yue Guild, he had no intention of broadcasting this discovery; just knowing it himself was enough.

Regardless of whether the player named Fenrio asked this question intentionally or not, inquiring about it was clearly overstepping.

"Sorry, I don't know about that." Tie Chui gave a small smile, "If you're really curious, you can ask the president and vice president when they return."

"Well, then forget it." Fenrio shrank his head, then quickly changed tone, "Brother, what's your talent?"

"Just an insignificant talent." Tie Chui's smile faded a bit as he spoke lightly.

"Really? It seems the Luo Yue Guild doesn't have high requirements for player talents!" Fenrio clicked his tongue, "The threshold for the official rank can't stop too many people; if there are no talent requirements either, wouldn't there be a lot of deadweights?"

"Ah, brother, I wasn't talking about you." Fenrio gave Tie Chui a friendly smile, "Once I join the guild, you'll be the first guild member I know, and I'll have your back!"

"You're really that confident you'll pass the interview?" Tie Chui gave him a meaningful glance.

"Of course." Fenrio was full of confidence, "Brother, my talent is red; aside from the nine golden talents, this is already the highest talent tier!"

"Moreover, I already have a contracted spirit beast that has broken through to Elite Tier; such strength among Growth Tier players is absolutely formidable, and as far as I know, the number of Elite Tier players is still relatively limited."

"If Luo and Yue Li can take me through a high-level secret realm once, I'll have a chance to obtain universal intermediate resources and advance to Elite Player." Fenrio's face was full of eager anticipation as he glanced at Evelyn standing behind Tie Chui.

"Even a little girl could reach Elite Player with their help; Luo and Yue Li surely wouldn't mind helping me a bit more, right?"

"After advancing to Elite Player, if I can follow Luo and Yue Li into more high-level dungeons to obtain Hall Crystals, I can definitely quickly rise to Hall Tier."

"Hall Tier!" Fenrio's face lit up with delight, "I'm already almost unable to wait!"

"Uncle Tie Chui, what is he saying?" Seeing the other looking at her and speaking a bunch of words she didn't understand, Evelyn turned her head and asked curiously in Russian.

"Hmm..." Tie Chui pondered, then relayed the two's conversation in Russian.

Evelyn's gaze toward Fenrio instantly grew a bit strange.

"What a cute little girl." Fenrio smiled, stepped forward and ruffled Evelyn's head; seeing her expression visibly darken, he laughed it off without concern.

"Anyway, whether you stay or leave is up to the president and vice president to decide; I'll notify them right away." Tie Chui quietly tugged Evelyn, smoothing things over without showing emotion, "We still need to busy ourselves building the new guild; wait nearby for a bit?"

"Sure, sure." Fenrio gave a hehe laugh, looked around, then took his spirit beast to a resting spot, lay comfortably on it, and waved at Tie Chui and Evelyn, "I'll rest here; you guys keep at it!"

"Uncle Tie Chui..." Evelyn murmured, "Can I beat him up?"

"That damned bastard, actually dared to touch her head!"

"Not for now..." Tie Chui's mouth twitched, he opened the guild channel, "I'll still report to the president and vice president first."

——

"Boom!!!"

The first Epic Tier Level 50 subjugation target crashed to the ground, turning into a sky-full of light points that dissipated, leaving only a heap of dropped rewards in its place.

Qin Chuan's expression remained calm, but his eyes hid a hint of joy.

【00:00:40】

With more experience fighting in Time Stop, his efficiency rose rapidly; the previous A-rank subjugation target took three seconds of Time Stop, this time only two.

Saving that precious second is the greatest victory.

Yue Li rode on Xiao Qing's back from afar, landing beside Qin Chuan, "The nearby Hall Tier has been completely cleared out."

"Good." Qin Chuan couldn't help but glance at Yue Li again.

She proactively suggested a division of labor, handing the Epic Tier Level 50 subjugation target to him to handle alone, while she took charge of clearing the surrounding secret realm spirit beasts, obviously so Qin Chuan wouldn't have to worry about her presence and could freely unleash a secret he couldn't tell her.

This is a smart and meticulous girl.

"Let's tally the subjugation rewards." Yue Li pretended not to notice Qin Chuan's gaze, walking straight toward the piled-up resources ahead.

The nervousness and shyness from when the boy personally placed the ring on her finger haven't fully faded; she always worries that if she looks twice into those eyes, she'll involuntarily fall in.

"Alright." Qin Chuan steadied himself and followed behind Yue Li.

The two began tallying and collecting the rewards in unison.

This A-rank dungeon subjugation again yielded one random Epic-tier resource.

Besides that, there was one self-selected Moon Haze equipment material, seven equipment enhancement stones, and various low-tier resources.

After the tally was finished, the two were teleported out before the secret realm collapsed.
