Chapter 331: News

"Chairman Mo Wen, adding you as a friend is really not easy."

While Su Sheng was approving the friend requests of the other guild chairmen.

Zhi Ge Wei Wu's private chat also arrived.

"Chairman Zhi Ge, you went through a lot of trouble to find me, what's the matter?" Su Sheng was also curious about what Zhi Ge Wei Wu was looking for.

So far, apart from the Battle for the Tripod, it seems I have had no interaction with War to Stop War.

"I just have some news I want to tell you; I believe Chairman Mo Wen will be very interested in it."

Seeing Zhi Ge Wei Wu's reply, Su Sheng frowned, "News?"

"About Qiancheng Muxue?" Su Sheng raised an eyebrow.

Regarding the Baihu Main City area, the only news related to my Yan Huang would be the one concerning Qiancheng Muxue.

However…

We just finished the Battle for the Tripod, and Qiancheng Muxue is already planning some trick.

"As expected of Chairman Mo Wen, you guessed the point right away; indeed it's Qiancheng Muxue's."

Zhi Ge Wei Wu didn't hide anything: "According to the news, Qiancheng Muxue just discovered a level‑40 Commander-level Boss."

"They are preparing to rally the entire guild's strength to take down that boss."

Su Sheng's eyebrows lifted slightly at the words.

A Commander-level Boss, and a level‑40 one at that.

Su Sheng understood Zhi Ge Wei Wu's meaning: Commander-level Bosses above level 40 have a chance to drop an Alliance Token.

Qiancheng Muxue, they're preparing to get the Alliance Token.

No, to be precise, all guilds are preparing for this, and it depends on who gets lucky and secures it first.

At present, it seems Qiancheng Muxue's luck is good.

Of course…

But now it's uncertain.

However, after a brief thought, Su Sheng understood Zhi Ge Wei Wu's idea.

Since War to Stop War already knows this news, it's obvious…

They couldn't possibly remain indifferent.

As for War to Stop War approaching me, it's clearly to enlist Yan Huang's power.

As for why they seek Yan Huang instead of others, there are two reasons.

Two points.

First, Yan Huang and Qiancheng Muxue are mortal enemies.

Second, Yan Huang has already founded a guild, so the Alliance Token is not a necessity for them.

If they approached others, not only would there be no assistance, but War to Stop War would likely gain another competitor.

"Chairman Zhi Ge, let's speak plainly."

"I truly don't want to see Qiancheng Muxue smoothly obtain the Alliance Token; that alone cannot justify Yan Huang becoming the vanguard for your War to Stop War."

Su Sheng replied directly.

"Hehe…"

Zhi Ge Wei Wu also stopped being evasive.

"At present, Dawn probably doesn't know yet."

"We, War to Stop War, indeed want to take down this boss, so…"

"After defeating this boss, we only need the Alliance Token from its drops; if the token isn't there, all the loot will go to Yan Huang. How does that sound?"

Looking at Zhi Ge Wei Wu's proposal, Su Sheng pondered for a moment.

"That's not enough…"

"Then tell me Yan Huang's conditions for stepping in."

"On top of what you said, add this: if the Alliance Token drops, it belongs to you, but you must also pay ten million."

"Ten million R?"

"Hmm…"

"That's too much, and War to Stop War will also contribute…"

Su Sheng smiled faintly: "If War to Stop War doesn't contribute, it won't be just ten million."

"At this stage, the value of the Alliance Token, I believe Chairman Zhi Ge knows better than I do."

Zhi Ge Wei Wu was clearly contemplating, and after a while…

"Alright, I accept your terms."

"However, to avoid drawing Dawn's attention, we won't send many people."

"Of course, Qiancheng Muxue will do the same; they will likely carefully select an elite squad rather than mobilize everyone."

"I understand."

"Then how many troops will Yan Huang deploy?"

"Our Yan Huang's cross‑city operation would be noticed if we made big moves, so we will send an Assassin Guild."

Yan Huang Assassin Team!

Old Assassin Alliance, all members!

"Enough."

Zhi Ge Wei Wu naturally knows Yan Huang's background; if it were another Assassin Guild, even a universal one, he wouldn't buy it.

But Yanhuang can.

Moreover, the Assassin Guild's concealment is excellent, and there's no need to worry about startling the grass and alarming the snakes.

"Then it's settled."

"Happy cooperation…"

…

Afterwards, Su Sheng found Chen Guan.

He explained the situation,

Indeed, Su Sheng himself does not intend to go to Baihu Main City to target Qiancheng Muxue.

Instead, he plans to have Chen Guan lead the team.

That is already enough; Su Sheng trusts Chen Guan.

Furthermore, compared with targeting Qiancheng Muxue, one's own development is the most important.

Although we still don't know what reward this mission yields, the reward for a unique mission cannot be low.

Regarding the operation against Qiancheng Muxue, Chen Guan is clearly very enthusiastic.

After Su Sheng said it once, Chen Guan immediately began enthusiastically gathering manpower.

After all, during Su Sheng's seven years in the army, it was Chen Guan who led the Assassin Alliance against Qiancheng Muxye in "head‑to‑head" battles.

…

"Alright, let's go." Su Sheng closed the Private Chat and said to Zhu Meng Junjie and the others.

"Okay."

Zhu Meng Junjie nodded; he exercised great self‑control and did not ask Zhi Ge Wei Wu why he was looking for Su Sheng.

Afterwards, the party continued onward.

Along the way, guided by the Dream Building Squad's familiar route, the level‑55 small monsters almost all avoided us.

Soon the party passed through the level‑55 monster zone and arrived at a collapsed palace ruin behind.

"The Teleport Array is inside; within this ruin there is a level‑58 Elite Boss guarding the gate, we can't get past it."

"I was about to ask you, Chairman, for help, but we happened to get caught up in the Battle for the Cauldron, which delayed us until now."

Zhu Meng Junjie looked at the ruin before him and said to Su Sheng.

"Go, inside."

Su Sheng immediately brandished a spear and Shield, mounted his steed, and led the charge.

With Zhu Meng Xiao E's buff, Su Sheng's HP in Mounted State reached forty thousand.

A level‑58 Elite Boss should be doable, right?

Su Sheng saw the tall puppet standing atop a ruin.

Behind that ruin, a massive collapsed Teleport Array lay.

That must be this mission's target, the Ancient Teleportation Array that needs repair.

Clack clack clack~

As Su Sheng rode forward, the puppet's eyes suddenly flashed yellow.

Immediately thereafter, amid the sounds of Mechanism Rotation, the huge puppet abruptly stood up.

Then a yellow beam shone onto Su Sheng and the members of the Dream Building Squad.

"Beep beep beep…"

"Identity unverified…"

"Intruder, eliminate!"

Su Sheng raised his middle finger!

Boss fight start!
