grey.

Yu Zi Teng's ID turned completely gray.

Xia Li frowned, opened the dialog box, and sent a message to the other party with the last hope.

At this moment, the gray ID suddenly lit up.

[Wisteria, are you there?] Her fingers trembled slightly.

Ten seconds later.

[Hey, are you all okay? ]

Xia Li breathed a sigh of relief: [We are fine, everyone is here]

But new doubts arose. Zi Teng's ID had turned gray just now, so why did it light up again?

She hesitated whether to ask, but the other side seemed to automatically sense her thoughts.

I know what you want to ask.

【I was just assassinated.】

But I am resurrected.

[Someone saved me within the 3-minute resurrection time.]

[A-Li, tell everyone, don't return to the city after you die! Find a teammate and use their skills to revive!]

A fierce force suddenly came from under the dagger, followed by a knee strike to the abdomen. Beishan Wolf immediately retracted the dagger and took two steps back. His abdomen just brushed against Xiaochi's knee.

"Fuck!" Xiao Chitang cursed angrily when his sneak attack failed. "I didn't expect you to react so quickly."

He had long felt that this man had a bad character. After all, he could even kill his own brothers. Beishan Wolf was glad that he had been careful in advance and was able to react quickly the moment the other party attacked.

"What good would it do you to kill me?" he asked.

"Bah, don't think too highly of yourself. I just can't stand your pretending to be noble." Little Pond glared at him unwillingly.

He was clearly tied up in the tenth mine like them, clearly also subject to the system's automatic health deduction setting, so why was he so calm? No, it wasn't calmness, but a disguise hidden behind an arrogant mentality!

"Haha, you're the former guild leader of Bei Ming You Yu. No one came to rescue you when you were captured by the green-headed monster and taken to the mines. Why are you pretending to be so nice to me?"

Beishan Wolf, who had wanted to untie him, frowned slightly upon hearing this. For the first time, facing a weak person in need of help, he put away his damn compassion.

He put the dagger back into his backpack. Xiao Chi Pond suddenly became anxious. He called out to the Beishan Wolf a few times in an attempt to keep it. However, the Beishan Wolf did not hesitate at all and turned around and walked out of the mine.

Seeing the North Mountain Wolf walking further and further away, Xiao Chitang finally couldn't hold back anymore and started shouting at the top of his voice.

For a moment, the screams shook the entire mine.

Antoine's ears twitched, and his expression changed drastically: "Oh no! The humans have escaped from the mine!"

He grabbed his weapons and rushed into the cave.

Beishan Wolf thought he would become a dumpling under the hands of the goblins again. Just as he was thinking about how to escape from this place, he walked to the entrance of the mine. Two human players were standing upright near the cave entrance. In front of them stood an old goblin, ID: Chief Ralph.

Beishan Wolf was stunned.

"Hey, Brother Beishan, you're out." Following the instructions given to them by the God of Pear, Poxiao greeted him enthusiastically.

Bai Guo also smiled at him politely.

Beishan Wolf glanced at the labels above their heads—[Wind and Cloud World]. They were from the same guild. But he didn't understand why the people from Wind and Cloud were here.

At this time, the goblin leader Ralph came forward with a cane, his face full of apology. "I'm so sorry. If they hadn't come looking for you, I wouldn't have known you were Xia Rilihua's friend. It's really impolite and I neglected you."

Friends of Summer Pear Blossoms...

Beishan Wolf looked at the two men and suddenly understood something.

She knew that he had gained nothing in the Ceylon Mountains and was being chased by a giant stone monster. In the critical moment, she threw him the coordinates of the goblins and deliberately let him break into the goblin territory. It turned out that everything was already under her control.

At this moment, Ralph had no idea what was going on in the North Mountain Wolf's mind. Seeing that he had no reaction, he assumed that he didn't accept his apology. So, he lowered his voice and looked aside: "Antoine, why did you imprison humans without permission?"

Antoine, standing in the distance, clenched his fists, his cheeks puffed out. "Chief! They trespassed into our territory, they should be locked up!"

"Confused!" Chief Ralph shouted, slamming his cane into the ground. "How do you think your trench bridge construction progressed from level 2 to level 3? Isn't it thanks to the engineering atlas that alchemist gave us? And our young goblins, their comprehension abilities are all declining. If they hadn't studied that atlas, would they have been able to develop new skills?"

Antoine was silent.

Ralph sighed deeply and shook his head. "Antoine, it's an indisputable fact that each generation of us who has left the Tree of Life is inferior to the previous one. That's why we can no longer work in isolation. The human race is constantly growing and developing. We should learn from their strengths instead of blindly treating them as enemies."

"But..." Antoine wanted to argue a few more words.

"Okay, you don't have to say any more," Ralph interrupted him directly. "Today you captured our benefactor's friend, so I'll punish you by sending you to the mine to dig five carts of ore."

Antoine left the mine reluctantly.

Chief Ralph apologized to the North Mountain Wolf again, and as a token of apology, he offered to give the North Mountain Wolf a basket of crystals.

A basket of crystals!

Beishan Wolf's blood seemed to boil. The crystal stone that he had been longing for and had been digging for three days and three nights but couldn't find was easily obtained because of his identity as "Summer Pear Blossom's Friend".

An indescribable complex emotion spread over my heart.

It seemed like he had always been relying on her for convenience, whether it was crystals or Pengge Gobi. Even when he was kicked out of the guild in front of many players, she was the only one who came forward to help him.

An idea finally slowly took shape in my mind.

After bidding farewell to Chief Ralph, Beishan Wolf stood outside the territory and solemnly expressed his gratitude to Poxiao and Baiguo who had deliberately come to identify themselves.

Poxiao groaned and waved his hand: "It's a small matter, Brother Beishan, there's no need to be so polite."

Beishan Wolf: "You really don't need to be so polite anymore."

Because he has made the decision that he wants to join Fengyun Tianxia.

On the other side, Baili Xi, Qingzhengyu and others returned to the guild one after another.

At this time, everyone in Fengyuntianxia was in a panic. Seeing that the president and vice president had returned, everyone rushed forward anxiously, asking what was going on with the message Xia Rilihua sent in the group.

"President, I heard from people in the world that it seems that no one can be resurrected?"

"Miracle is just a game! We are all players in the game, why can't we be resurrected?!"

"It's over! Players can't return to the city to revive. Miracle is trying to wear us out in the game!"

"Resources are always limited. Red and blue potions don't just drop out of thin air. If we want to have enough potions, we have to enter dungeons and participate in activities. But, but dungeons always have risks. Who can guarantee that anyone who enters won't die?"

"That's right! I'm only level 18, my combat power isn't even average, and I die multiple times every time I enter a dungeon. If that's the case, a player like me won't survive for more than a few days!"

Everyone was talking at once, and the scene became increasingly chaotic.

A player wearing a golden cloak walked in from outside the door.

"Fluster leads to confusion, and haste leads to fatigue. What everyone needs to worry about most right now is not why they can't be resurrected, but how to save their own lives."

The voice came from behind everyone. Everyone turned their heads and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when they saw the most familiar face.

Xia Li walked from the doorway into the courtyard. "Players below level 20, please do not leave the guild for now. Your combat power is too low. You are just walking targets at this critical moment. The guild is your safest refuge. Do not act rashly without understanding the specific situation."

"Yes." The low-level players responded one after another.

"Players at levels 20-25 must form a team to go out. A minimum of five people, including at least two priests. This way, if they're targeted, they can use the team's strength to resist and escape. As for players above level 25..."

Having said this, she paused and quickly scanned the eligible members.

"Those above level 25 will be assigned to the guild. You are the backbone of the guild. The guild's continued development depends on you. Potions, food, materials, all of these need to be collected by you."

The crowd, which had just quieted down, became agitated again.

"Xia Rihua, are you stupid? Why do you let us high-level people go out and take risks?"

"We also worked hard to level up, why should we help a level 20 guy collect items?"

"Anyone below level 20 is trash! Why does the guild keep them around? We might as well just kick them all out to avoid wasting guild resources!"

"That's right! Kick out the trash and keep the elite!"

"Kick out the trash and keep the elite!"

The situation that had been stabilized with great difficulty was reversed in an instant.

Everyone knows that kicking people out is the best solution in this situation, but after all, we are all members of the same guild and we communicate with each other on a regular basis. It would be a bit unfair to abandon people when disaster strikes.

But if we don't kick, Fengyun Tianxia will be in a difficult situation. The warehouse resources are limited. If everyone eats, drinks and uses it every day, the warehouse storage will be exhausted in less than a week. By then, all the talents in the guild will be forced to take action.

Everyone looked at the alchemist, wondering what choice she would make next.

Xia Li's expression remained unchanged. As she pulled up the guild member list, she said coldly, "Oh? Then tell me what is trash? And what is an elite?"

A few people were stunned for a moment, then shouted, "Of course anyone below level 20 is trash! Anyone above level 25 is an elite!"

"Really?" She looked at the levels of the people in the list, grinning. Several people inexplicably felt goose bumps on their backs.

"There are currently 13 players over level 30 in the entire guild, and 71 over level 25. Based on the guild's current resources, we're only just able to accommodate 13 players over level 30. Adding those between level 25 and 30 will be a bit of a stretch. So, why not kick out everyone below level 30?"

Several people's faces froze, obviously they didn't expect her to be so big all of a sudden.

They're all level 28. If I really kick out those below level 30, wouldn't I be kicked out too? How can I do that?

"Why did you kick us out too? We're level 28!"

Xia Li narrowed her eyes. "So you mean to just kick out those below level 28?"

Several people nodded immediately, "Of course, no problem! As long as they don't kick anyone over 28."

Anyone with a discerning eye could immediately understand the intentions of those guys. What's the point of kicking out the trash and keeping the elites? It turns out that they only have themselves in their minds!

A group of people rushed forward, pointed at those people and started cursing.

After a long period of commotion, the noisy scene was finally stopped by Baili Xi raising his hand.

He directly expelled several level 28 members who were causing trouble from the guild, and the rest were arranged according to what Xia Li said, and no one in the guild objected.

Just then, Xia Li discovered that there was an extra task in the white task box.

[Earth: Chief Ralph has sent you a pigeon letter, requesting urgent assistance!]
