Game Mercenary Group

It took a long time for Liu Xiujuan to recover from her shock.

She did not believe that Xiao Fan would lie to her under these circumstances.

This matter was real!

The status of players in Cloud Sea was already lofty, and Xiao Fan, having created a God-Tier Skill, was destined for extraordinary achievements.

No! He was already extraordinary now.

"Aunt, I told you this so you wouldn't worry. Given my current strength, please don't let this spread for now."

Xiao Fan was like a young child possessing a peerless treasure; once this news got out, he would become a piece of fat meat known to everyone.

In the Real World, the nation could still protect him, but what about in Cloud Sea? There were too many uncertainties!

Before he had absolute strength, he did not want to expose the fact that he possessed a God-Tier Skill.

More importantly, he still had enemies.

Xiao Fan's gaze was like two sharp swords, looking straight toward the direction of the Chen Family, as if he could pierce through the heavy buildings and crowds to strike directly at the core of the Chen Family.

The humiliation the Chen Family had inflicted upon him, and the fact that they had nearly beaten his Uncle to death, were like a thorn deeply embedded in his heart. One day, he would make the Chen Family pay the price!

For now, he needed to develop.

"Don't worry, Xiao Fan, we will definitely not tell anyone else." Liu Xiujuan knew the gravity of the situation and promised solemnly.

Xiao Le and Xiao An also nodded frantically: "Don't worry, brother, we will never tell anyone about this."

Xiao Fan patted their heads: "When you enter the game in the future, I will give you a surprise."

There were too many powerful skills Xiao Fan could think of, and he couldn't use them all by himself; he could cultivate his own family members and some teammates when the time came.

As for his Uncle and Aunt, once he grew stronger and left the Novice Zone, he could also help them become stronger.

"A surprise!" Xiao Le and Xiao An looked at each other, already filled with anticipation, wishing they could enter the game right now.

Xiao Fan: "Aunt, you can rest easy now, right?"

With a solution to the problem, Liu Xiujuan's face finally relaxed a little: "Thank you, Xiao Fan. You must be hungry after coming back from the Novice Zone. I'll go make dinner." As she spoke, Liu Xiujuan turned and headed into the kitchen.

"We'll go help." Xiao Le and Xiao An followed her into the kitchen.

Xiao Fan returned to his room alone. He hadn't expected such a major incident to happen at home while he was back in the Real World, and fortunately, he had returned at the right time.

Lying on the bed, Xiao Fan picked up his phone to look up information about game mercenaries.

Knowing that something had happened to his Uncle, he didn't plan to stay in the Real World for long; he would enter the game later to find mercenaries.

There was currently no fixed management for game mercenaries; this profession was very chaotic, and their strength was uneven.

In order to better accept missions, many mercenaries banded together to form mercenary groups.

A good mercenary group relied on its reputation and mission success rate.

Opening the Cloud Sea Game Forum, Xiao Fan looked up some information about mercenary groups.

Currently, the three highest-ranked mercenary groups in the Dragon Nation region were the Ferocious Tiger Mercenary Group, the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group, and the Night Blade Mercenary Group.

The leader of the Ferocious Tiger Mercenary Group went by the ID Hammer; he was level 55 and had been the owner of a martial arts hall before the game descended, having created his own Mystic Rank Skill Chain.

Most of the people in this mercenary group were from the Iron Hammer Martial Arts Hall. Their reputation and mission success rate were quite good, but the downside was that they did not accept high-difficulty missions.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Fan put the Ferocious Tiger Mercenary Group on hold.

The Wild Wolf Mercenary Group had the worst reputation among the three. The leader was called Old Dog, level 55, who had been a small-time thug before the game descended.

Old Dog was ruthless, but his talent was decent. In order to learn an advanced Skill Chain, he had married a player who possessed a Mystic Rank Skill Chain, and after learning it, he killed his wife and her entire family.

The Wild Wolf Mercenary Group was full of people like him; although their mission completion rate was high, few ordinary people dared to do business with them.

Xiao Fan didn't even think about it and immediately ruled out the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group.

That left the Night Blade Mercenary Group.

The leader of the Night Blade Mercenary Group, Ye Bugu, was level 59 and was a legendary figure in the game.

It was said that he lost both parents when he was young and only had his younger sister to rely on.

When he was still a novice, Ye Bugu was just a player who had learned a Yellow Rank Skill Chain.

Later, after leaving the Novice Zone, while hunting a Fierce Beast in the wild, he and his sister were targeted by a group of people. Later, to protect him so he could escape, his sister was killed by that group.

From then on, his game career was left with nothing but revenge.

He was no match for those people during the day, so he lurked at night, accompanied only by a pair of short blades.

Over time, he actually created a Mystic Rank Skill Chain for dual short blades. Relying on his powerful skills, he killed everyone who had murdered his sister, thereby offending many factions and suffering two years of being hunted down.

It wasn't until he reached level 50 and created his first Earth-Tier Skill that those who were hunting him reluctantly gave up.

Later, Ye Bugu founded the Night Blade Mercenary Group, which was filled with people who had similar experiences to his own.

The Night Blade Mercenary Group was the one with the best reputation and the highest mission success rate among the three.

The downside was that they charged high prices, and whether or not they accepted a mission depended on their mood.

However, the Night Blade Mercenary Group was very capable when it came to finding people, with a success rate reaching eighty percent!

"Them, it is!" Xiao Fan made his decision immediately.

He noted down the business ID of the Night Blade Mercenary Group. After finishing his meal, Xiao Fan couldn't wait to get his Uncle's game ID, then sent a message to Fatty, telling him to meet him directly in Zone 18 in three days.

"Thank you for your hard work, Xiao Fan." Liu Xiujuan watched Xiao Fan leave with reddened eyes.

"We're family, no need for such formalities. Don't worry, Aunt, Uncle will be just fine."

After saying this, Xiao Fan pressed his Login Device, and the next second, his figure appeared in Zone 18.

It was still the same familiar, dilapidated village, yet Xiao Fan felt an inexplicable sense of intimacy.

"Huh? Jiu Chen? Why are you back so soon? It hasn't even been a day." The voice of Wind Snow Traveler came from behind him.

Xiao Fan turned around and explained, "I finished some things early, so I came back."

"Is there anything you need help with?" Ever since the Beast Tide incident, Wind Snow Traveler's attitude toward Xiao Fan had completely changed.

Even though Xiao Fan was only level five, his ever-changing, unpredictable skills were far beyond anything Wind Snow Traveler could comprehend.

Furthermore, he noticed that Xiao Fan could cast skills without a weapon, which was simply unheard of.

He now held Xiao Fan in high regard, bordering on admiration.

"No need, I already have a solution." Xiao Fan shook his head.

"Alright then, if you ever need anything, feel free to come to me directly." Wind Snow Traveler smiled and turned to leave.

Xiao Fan glanced at the Novice Village and suddenly noticed that the Black-Clad Girl who had been curled up in the corner was gone.

"I suppose no one can handle staying out in this environment."

They were strangers, so Xiao Fan didn't take it to heart and turned back toward his thatched cottage.

Opening the friend request function, Xiao Fan entered the business ID for the Night Blade Mercenary Group.

"Please enter verification information."

Xiao Fan typed: "Commission: finding someone."

The message was sent, and it was rejected in a second.

Xiao Fan: ?????

"What's going on?"

Xiao Fan frowned and sent the friend request again.

However, in less than a second, the friend request was rejected once more.

At this speed, the other party was clearly online, but for some reason, they wouldn't accept.

Apply again.

Rejected.

Apply again.

Rejected.

Xiao Fan applied over ten times, and without exception, every one was rejected.

"Could it be because my level is too low?"

Xiao Fan was getting a bit annoyed. He was a customer, and the customer is king! Was it really okay to reject him without even asking?

Terrible service, zero stars!

Suppressing his anger, Xiao Fan sent another friend request.

"Hello, this is an urgent matter. Please accept my friend request."
