“Ambush!” Wine God Youngster shouted. His spear stabbed right into the neck of the Bandit. With a swirl, -357! It was the Stab skill of Forward Charge Paladin!
Lin Jie took out Broken Blade with his right hand and used the Blade Aura to cut the Bandit’s skull.
—”You have killed a commoner, Violent Fate, your evil score +1.”
“It’s Kingdom of Glory!” Lin Jie started to be serious. Violent Fate was quite well-known in his previous life. Lin Jie remembered this guy.
“Hundred Bandit Team! They have been spying on us for quite a long time.”
Now, three of them were in the center of Endless Volcanoes. They were surrounded by the destructive volcano, and they could see the terrifying monster near them: Burning Vulcan, Flaming Ghost, and Salamander Lizard. Only the path in the middle was safe.
Hundred Bandit Team was the organization created by Eighteen Massacres to kill whoever that threatened him. The main targets of this organization were mainly his own people! Everyone in the organization had deep trust from Eighteen Massacres. Normally they would live as mercenaries, but they only accepted tasks from Eighteen Massacres alone.
With a wave of his wand, Zheng Ziliang summoned a giangantic Water Overlord. It was really useful now as with the splashing liquid in all directions, the three of them could know exactly where the enemies were.
Although the enemy team quickly changed formation when they exposed their position, Lin Jie noticed the location of most members of the team. It was a semicircle...
“Semicircle...” Lin Jie’s pupils constricted. It was not an ambush formation, it was like... they were protecting something.
What were they protecting?
Lin Jie raised his sword and shouted, “Hey, why don’t you show yourself?”
“Hehehe, since Leader Lone Wolf said so, we sure need to do that favor.” A dwarf wearing a golden crocodile armor appeared from empty space. He removed the mask on his face and revealed a cunning look.
When a Bandit removed their mask, it was a form of respect.
Since the Mercenary Association was replaced by Brotherhood, Hundred Bandit Team naturally belonged to Brotherhood too. It was quite a famous team in Brotherhood too.
Lin Jie was slightly relaxed. He smiled and said, “Brothers from Hundred Bandit Team, you guys are here for a mission? Should have told me first, right? Now we are fighting among ourselves.”
“Erm...” The Bandit was a bit awkward. After Lin Jie said that, it would be bad if they continued to attack. “We are hired to kill all those who approach. Sorry, sorry.”
Shhhh...
A few other Bandits appeared, smiling. One of them took out a bottle of wine that cost 10 gold coins and gave it to Lin Jie. “We did not see it was you. Oh yeah, what are you doing here?”
Lin Jie kept the wine. It was so expensive, it would be a waste if he did not take it.
“I’m here to dig some treasure map, we will leave once we are done,” Lin Jie replied.
“Oh my...”
The Bandits exchanged a look and the guy who gave Lin Jie the wine took out another 20 gold coins and gave Lin Jie. “Leader, someone is supervising on us. We must not let anyone come close. Could you come back later? You can dig the treasure map any time, right?”
Lin Jie kept the money and patted on his shoulder. He said, “Brother, you have a point! We’ll come back another time.”
“Let’s go.” Lin Jie winked at his partners when turning around. Both of them knew what he meant and followed him without complaining.
“These guys are the Hundred Bandit Team?” asked Wine God Youngster in a low voice. “They are very credible in the Mercenary team and had a very high success rate. But they have many points deducted because they turned down many missions. If not, they would have a higher ranking than my big brother and me.”
Zheng Ziliang was not very clear of the structure of Brotherhood and said in a sad voice, “They seem friendly, why did we not have a drink with them? And we killed one of them...”
Lin Jie scoffed and said, “These guys are working for Eighteen Massacres! They are nicely undercover, though. If I’m correct, they are working for Eighteen Massacres right now!”
“Really? They belonged to Eighteen Massacres? Then why was he still so miserable now...”
“I always feel that Eighteen Massacres is very dangerous, but I do not know why.” Lin Jie shook his head.
Wine God Youngster asked, “What do we do now? Leave?”
“Leave? No, no, no...” Lin Jie smirked. “We have yet to come to an open break, so we do not need to retreat yet. But we don’t have to fight them either. They are good informers there too. Let’s go there!”
Endless Volcanoes was known as the Bone-Burying Land as players could end up burned to death by the lava coming from the volcano. However, it would be a good farming spot for EXP if the technique was right.
In the northwest, there was an active volcano. The soil of this volcano was quite soft, which made it easy to dig up with weapons.
“Ziliang, summon your Water Element,” Lin Jie instructed.
Zheng Ziliang nodded and waved his wand, the gigantic Water Overlord appeared again. Water Overlord was a Water creature, it almost vaporized by the heat coming from the volcano! The moment the Water Overlord was summoned, a large puddle of water was formed, and it flew downhill like a river.
There were some gaps in the current more than 200 yards away, just like someone standing in the middle of a river.
Lin Jie took a look again, these gaps disappeared immediately.
“Leader, that Contract Summoner has a Water Overlord. We are easily exposed.”
“Do not bother! Lone Wolf was respectful just now. If we still try to kill him, we will be in the wrong. Once we are exposed in Brotherhood, all the efforts will be wasted.”
“Let’s go! They cannot do anything either. As long as our boss gets the Demon Dragon’s Skeleton, we can easily wipe out Brotherhood!”
Violent Fate’s face clouded as he waved his hand.

“Wind Rider Blade Aura Executioner!”
Sizzle—
The Broken Blade ran along the ground, making gullies along the way. Wine God Youngster stuffed the long spear-like a shovel into the soil and stirred the ground.
Zheng Ziliang had the easiest job among them. Running together with his Water Overlord to the top of the mountain.
If someone were to look at them from the top of the hill, they would know that these three were... digging a path! There was a deep gully at the bottom of the mountain.
Wine God Youngster knew Lin Jie’s intention on the spot. He admired this young man’s guts and creativity. He was going to draw the lava from the volcano!
The lava in Endless Volcanoes could kill players immediately. If he were to draw the lava downhill, the Hundred Bandit Team would be wiped out! It was definitely magnificent!
“10 more steps, and we will encounter a Flaming Ogre. We will go past it,” said Lin Jie. The Silver-Feathered Eagle sent the image of the path ahead to Lin Jie through Spirit Vision so that he could avoid all the monsters in the path. The bird, however, was close to a cooked bird in the sky.
Sure enough, less than 10 steps, a red Flaming Ogre was sleeping. Its basketball-sized head was rumbling on the ground. This strange massage seemed to make it very comfortable.
The three of them carefully avoided it and continued going uphill.
“Hahaha, how many is this one?” Zheng Ziliang shouted excitedly. “Jie, as long as we let the volcano explode, we can get the EXP from all the Bosses here?”
“Just part of it!” Lin Jie corrected him. “Or else here would be flooded with players using the same method to farm EXP. This is a level 30 map. If the player level is above 25, this cheating method hardly gives them any EXP.”
The digging to the top of the mountain took them 5 hours! That was still because the ground was relatively soft, a single Blade Aura could cut open a large part of it. If not, it might have taken days!
This was the power of a game! Who could even do that in reality?
The reason why virtual games attracted countless people was that they enabled players to experience the power that they would never obtain in reality.
After splitting the last part of the path, Lin Jie stood on the top of the mountain, overlooking the spectacular Endless Volcano. In the distance, the gigantic egg was laying calmly in the lava, and the Hundred Bandit Team was lurking at the foot of the seemingly empty mountain.
“Prepare to watch a show...”
Lin Jie pointed his Broken Blade in the sky, and a Blade Aura burst out from the tip of the blade. The color of the sword body gradually became dazzling and terrifying. Suddenly, a roar came out of the Broken Blade’s handle.
Kaboom—
The sky seemed to be responding to the Broken Blade, and dark clouds quickly gathered.
Thunderstorm!
