In the darkness, two level 50 sixth-turn Assassin players activated [Swift Movement] (temporarily increasing movement speed) and fled in the direction away from Dawn Coast.

  However, it was only for a moment.

  When the two turned back, they were shocked to see dozens of Death Lords rapidly closing in on them!

  With the enhancement of the 39x strengthened E-level [Wind Rush], the speed attribute of the Death Lords had reached over 7000, far surpassing the 6000+ speed of the sixth-turn Assassins in their peak state!

  Swish, swish, swish!

  Dozens of Soul Shatters bloomed simultaneously, and the two level 50 Assassins didn't even have a chance to resist before they were instantly killed!

  Meanwhile.

  Lu Ming, from the rear, confirmed the identity of the two Assassins through shared vision, and indeed, they were players from the Dragon Soul team!

  "What a pity, just two small fry keeping watch."

  Dragon Soul Guan Yu was not present.

  After numerous encounters, Dragon Soul Guan Yu had evidently become more cautious.

  "It seems you're even more cunning than I imagined."

  With this thought, Lu Ming ordered the Undead Legion to refine the corpses and loot the battlefield.

  Meanwhile.

  At the back, players from the Excellence, Transcendence, and Blaze teams cast skeptical glances at Lu Ming...

  Transcendence Dream's mouth was agape, wide enough to fit a durian.

  Even though his good friend Excellence Little Tiger repeatedly emphasized how formidable this Trickster was, he truly hadn't expected him to be this ridiculously powerful!

  "A single Sword Draw, over 500,000 damage?"

  "Is this really a level 22 Trickster..."

  The Death Lords around them, exuding an aura of endless majesty and kingly presence like emissaries from hell, made the players present break into a cold sweat.

  Even Excellence Little Tiger and Blaze Soul, who thought they knew Lu Ming well, were deeply shocked once again by Lu Ming's displayed strength!

  Because clearly, this time Lu Ming was even stronger than the last time they had witnessed him!

  "When I sparred with him before, I remember his Sword Draw only dealt 180,000 damage. How did it suddenly triple?"

  Excellence Little Tiger was in shock.

  Blaze Soul was equally excited and thrilled: "Damn! I've decided to follow this big brother!!!"

  As they spoke, Excellence Little Tiger, Transcendence Dream, and Blaze Soul all ran towards Lu Ming.

  "Nether God, on behalf of the 112 members of the Blaze Squad, I pledge allegiance to you!"

  Excellence Little Tiger and Transcendence Dream also expressed their intentions: "We also wish to join under the Nether God's command and follow your orders from now on!"

  "Sure," Lu Ming replied with a calm smile, then looked at Qin Churan and said to them, "Just listen to her."

  The three of them followed Lu Ming's gaze to Qin Churan.

  "Although she's from the Godslayer Squad, I've heard she doesn't get along well with her brother, right? Didn't her brother demand she establish a top 100 national team within three years..."

  "Yeah, doesn't that mean she's already distanced herself from Godslayer? She has no authority there, and besides, she's just a woman, this..."

  Just as they were filled with doubt.

  Lu Ming's words dispelled all their concerns: "She's my girlfriend."

  "She represents me."

  With these words, the three no longer harbored any doubts about Qin Churan.

  Blaze Soul asked Qin Churan, "Boss, what's our team called?"

  "We haven't decided yet," Qin Churan replied. "Once we do, I'll let you know."

  "I'll create a group first, and you all can join."

  As she spoke, Qin Churan added the three of them on WeChat and then created a group chat, adding them all in.

  "For now, let's keep it this way. I'll notify you in the group if there's anything."

  After saying this, Qin Churan left with Lu Ming.

  Watching the two gradually leave.

  Excellence Little Tiger, Transcendence Dream, and Blaze Soul couldn't calm their excitement for a long time.

  "Damn! A level 20 fighting a level 50, that's really fierce!"

  "It's the first time I've seen such a powerful Trickster in my life!"

  "Following Nether, maybe we can really make it into the top 100 national teams in the future!"

  "Then we three would be the first batch of founding members, right?"

  At this point, they exchanged glances, each filled with a surge of excitement.

  "It's like a flood washing over the Dragon King's temple, family not recognizing family!"

  "Big brother! Second brother!"

  "Second brother! Third brother!"

  "Big brother! Third brother!"

  "Good brothers!"

  Blaze Soul hugged Transcendence Dream, excitedly saying, "Brother, it's my fault, I shouldn't have stolen your girlfriend!"

  Transcendence Dream was also teary-eyed: "As long as big brother likes her, I'll let you have her!"

  Excellence Little Tiger said, "Big brother, second brother, in my opinion, if you both like her, why not all three of you be together!"

  Ding Yue, standing nearby, shivered slightly.

  Meanwhile, on the other side.

  On the way back to the city.

  Qin Churan glanced at Lu Ming beside her, a glimmer of light in her eyes.

  "Thanks to you tonight, I'll treat you to dinner offline tomorrow?"

  Clearly, in Qin Churan's view, she felt she needed to do something to repay Lu Ming.

  Otherwise, it seemed like she was using Lu Ming under the guise of a romantic relationship.

  Lu Ming, however, was indifferent: "It's fine, you handle the team matters first, everything else can wait."

  Qin Churan nodded, feeling a weight lifted off her heart.

  Lu Ming's measured approach made Qin Churan feel very relaxed with him, without any psychological burden or pressure!

  "Then, I'll head to the Scarlet Camp first. There's an event there at ten tonight, and I've arranged to meet another studio."

  Lu Ming said, "I'll go with you."

  "No need," Qin Churan clearly didn't want to trouble Lu Ming further: "I'm okay, this studio's average strength isn't high, but they have good character."

  "I'm confident I can win them over, and if not, I can call the Blaze people for help!"

  Lu Ming insisted, "I don't have anything else to do, let's go together."

  Qin Churan was just embarrassed to speak.

  Because although she was confident, with Lu Ming there, it would be even more secure!

  Seeing Lu Ming's insistence, she didn't refuse and happily said, "Alright, I'll treat you to dinner later!"

  For Lu Ming.

  Following Qin Churan was firstly to ensure her safety.

  After all, the revenge plan needed her to drive it forward.

  Secondly, these recruits would also be part of Lu Ming's forces in the future, so he needed to personally vet them, just like the Blaze, Excellence, and Transcendence teams tonight!

  "In this way, they are ostensibly joining under Qin Churan, but the ones who submit are to me."

  "When needed later, I can mobilize them at any time."

  On the way to the Scarlet Camp with Qin Churan, Lu Ming considered his own strength status.

  The Sword Draw skill had been upgraded from D-level to C-level, enhancing not just the strength of this skill.

  It also included the overall strength of the Undead Legion!

  With the current strength of the Undead Legion, they could easily contend with level 50 players.

  Even facing the Dragon Soul team's massive forces, they could hold their own!

  "You've lived long enough, it's time for you to die."

  The image of Dragon Soul Guan Yu flashed in his mind, and a strong killing intent surged in Lu Ming's eyes.

  Next, he just needed to find a way to lure the snake out of its hole!

  Little did he know, on the other side, this snake had been lurking in the hole, constantly watching Lu Ming.

  In Jiang Province, Hanghai City.

  At an offline gym.

  Dragon Soul Guan Yu was doing a 200-kilogram bench press.

  At this moment, a phone call came in.

  "Brother Guan, the assassination attempt on Nether failed. The two brothers we sent to keep watch were discovered and killed by Nether, and the video they recorded before dying has been sent to you!"

  Since the result was already within Dragon Soul Guan Yu's expectations, he wasn't surprised by the news.

  But when he opened the WeChat video, he was shocked by the content on the screen.

  570,000 Sword Draw damage!

  The Undead Legion easily crushed a hundred level 35-40 fourth-turn players in five seconds!

  In the face of such astonishing speed, even his level 50 sixth-turn Assassins from the Dragon Soul team had nowhere to hide!

  "In just one day, his strength has increased so dramatically!"

  Dragon Soul Guan Yu was relieved he hadn't rashly taken action tonight.

  Yet he frowned deeply, the ferocity in his eyes growing more intense.

  He realized: if he didn't eliminate Lu Ming soon, this person would pose an increasing threat to him in the future!

  Just then, another call came in.

  Dragon Soul Guan Yu answered, hearing "Boss Qin" on the other end: "How's it going? Is that Trickster dealt with?"

  Dragon Soul Guan Yu was a bit impatient: "Don't rush me, I'm on it."

  "I have a new task for you," Boss Qin said. "Qin Churan is recruiting for a team recently. I want you to eliminate her recruits, kill every single one!"

  "A million per head, I'll give you a part of the deposit first."

  As soon as the words were spoken, Dragon Soul Guan Yu received a text message:

  [Your account ending in 3195 has received a transfer of 50,000,000 yuan, balance 165,327,652.12 yuan... Great Xia Bank]

  The deposit of fifty million instantly calmed all of Dragon Soul Guan Yu's restlessness.

  At this moment, Boss Qin added another instruction: "I have only one condition, Qin Churan must not die, she still has a use for me."

  Dragon Soul Guan Yu replied indifferently: "Leave it to me."

  Hanging up the phone.

  To be honest, he wasn't interested in the new task given by Qin Feng.

  His mind was entirely focused on how to kill Lu Ming.

  "You've killed too many of my Dragon Soul brothers, Nether!"

  At this moment, an idea suddenly struck Dragon Soul Guan Yu, a plan that could both execute Qin Feng's task and simultaneously deal with Lu Ming!

  "Nether, prepare to face my wrath!"

  As he spoke, Dragon Soul Guan Yu's eyes gleamed sharply, and he crushed the phone with his bare hands.

  Hey, y'all! If you're into this novel, do come to to give me a hand and I'll be able to update it quicker over there. Thanks a bunch!
