    “Wandering Soul?”


    After hearing that familiar name, Qin Ruo turned towards the voice with a raised eyebrow and saw him. Wandering Soul swiftly dashed to the side of Moonwaltz Rimbo. He greeted Qin Ruo while warmly tugging thedy’s sleeves.


    “Come on, say yes! We talked about this.” He seemed anxious and excited—as though Qin Ruo inviting Moonwaltz Rimbo to join Fallen Angels was more exciting than inviting him.


    “Brother Qin! Well... if Moony joins Fallen Angels, could I join too?” Wandering Soul seemed to be a close friend to Moonwaltz Rimbo. And of course, Qin Ruo did not mind him joining.


    Pulling a Master-ranked cksmith into their ranks was already a beneficial deal for Fallen Angels already, and now Wandering Soul wanted in too. It’s like a buy-one-free-one offer.


    This Level 31 Terra Swordmaster did show his exceptionalbat prowess at the Goblin Mountains... Even though he was only Tier 3, hisbat reflex and techniques were extraordinarily good—powerful enough that he could easily rise up to be one of the elites out there. Besides, he even had those two weird skills too. He was a kid with great potential.


    After Qin Ruo gave his promise to give him a membership, Wandering Soul tugged at Moonwaltz Rimbo’s sleeves again and continue persuading her. Finally, both of them sent their membership request to join Fallen Angels.


    “You better keep your promise and find Grade 2 Metal for me...”


    “... I will do my best. We have, however, Grade 3 Metal for you if you want them right now.”


    “Okay. It’s a deal then.”


    Moonwaltz Rimbo knew this demand was not an easy one to meet. Although she wanted ores that were of even higher grade, Grade 2 were after all materials used to forge Legendary tier, or higher equipment. Additionally, equipment that were a tier higher than that was still a myth too.


    Qin Ruo epted their membership request. Finally, both of them were now officially Fallen Angels’s members...


    This sight made Dark Dragon and his gang who were standing near the lobby turn green!


    Originally, they were there because they wanted Moonwaltz Rimbo’s skills of a Master-ranked cksmith for themselves. Yet Qin Ruo arrived earlier than them and recruited her.


    “Leader Dark Dragon?”


    Dark Dragon’s underlings saw him holding his staff so hard that it turned white. They swallowed their saliva anxiously and asked “Uh... that cksmith girl has now joined Fallen Angels. So, do we still proceed?”


    “Proceed? To do what? To embarrass ourselves?”


    Dark Dragon pped his sleeves and turned away, snorting in anger. He then led his group out of the smithy.


    ***


    “Leader!”


    Wandering Soul, filled with vigor and pride after joining Fallen Angels, stood in front of Qin Ruo his new leader and greeted him with respect. Then, he proceeded to show his respect to the other senior members of the n along the way too.


    “I like this kid.”


    Subjugator seemed to have regained his confidence with his age. He put his hand on Wandering Soul’s shoulder and dered, “Now that you’re my apprentice,e to me if anyone dares to bully you. I’ll beat their asses for you!”


    “Thank you, Brother Subjugator!”


    Wandering Soul sure knew how to kiss ass. Qin Ruo could not help but suspect this person was not the same cool Swordmaster who dared to scheme against him back in Goblin Mountains. Yet, he also had an issue with what Subjugator said to Wandering Soul.


    “Subjugator, that’s not right...”


    As he spoke, others started to focus their eyes on him.


    Qin Ruo looked at the people around him, then at the yers who were looking at their direction from afar. He continued on the n voice channel, “Now that you’re in Fallen Angels, know that every single one of you is the ace of our n! We will not let others bully us, and we will not bully others too... If we lose in a duel fair and square, that isn’t being bullied. If you lose, train harder and get better... However, if there’s anyone who wants to conspire against us or tries to cowardly overwhelm us with sheer numbers, let it be known that we—Fallen Angels will not yield to anyone!” As this pep talk was being given to every member of the n, Qin Ruo’s eyes were fixed on Wandering Soul’s face.


    Thetter eagerly nodded in agreement.


    “Yes sir!”


    “Now go train, and get to Tier 5 as soon as possible so that you could join us in future missions,” Qin Ruo encouraged the new recruit.


    “Yes sir!”


    After he excitedly nodded his head again, Wandering Soul rushed out of Moonwaltz Rimbo’s smithy like a bison.


    “And we should go too. Let’s not disturb Moony’s work.” Now that he knew there was no matching Magical Metals for the Star Diamond, Qin Ruo shrugged and spoke to his peers loudly, “Onward! To the appraisal shop...”


    “Haha!”


    Recalling therge number of treasures in Fateless’s backpack, everyone happily marched to Moonrise City’s appraisal shop.


    Fallen Angels now had four winged elite yers. Other than that, there were also Judge, Fateless, Snowleaf, and Permanent Lock — four Tier 5 yers without Angelic Wings.


    ording to Fateless, Tier 5 Bandits did not really need Angelic Wings because their primary battleground was on the ground. Therefore, the Divinity Crystal should be given to Judge and Snowleaf!


    After hearing this, Judge decided to act manly and gentlemanly.


    “Snowleaf should be fusing with the crystal. She’s a Summoner—she will need the Angelic Wings and higher mobility when we go to the Buried City. I’ll be fine without it. No Tier 5 monsters will ever get me.”


    “But...” Snowleaf tried to object but Judge, who already made up his mind, stopped her.


    “No ‘but’. Just fuse with it.”


    Qin Ruo and the rest were also nodding in agreement while Fateless forcefully shoved the Divinity Crystal into Snowleaf’s hand.


    “Come on, just take it. Sooner orter, you’ll need the wings anyway. Don’t reject it.”


    “Yeah. If it’s me, I won’t hesitate to own the wings at all.”


    Permanent Lock seemed a little jealous.


    ***


    After Snowleaf finally conceded, they acquire a private room in Champion’s Restaurant for her to fuse with the crystal. When they were waiting patiently, Judge suddenly turned to Qin Ruo and asked, “Qin Ruo, so you, Majestic Hero and ck God are going to do it tonight?”


    “Yeap.”


    Qin Ruo nodded his head and exined, “Originally, we were hoping to research a little more on the Golden Key Mission so that we could get more Legendary equipment... Now we can’t do that anymore. It has be too difficult to grab the Golden Key. Even if you guys could hold the line in the Buried City tomorrow, it would still be rather difficult toplete the mission in a short time... This time, to prevent the Demon Faction from activating the warp portal to log onto Buried City, we will need to race against time and clear the pathways within two days!”


    Everyone nodded.


    “Qin Ruo, be careful.”


    Judge cautioned worriedly. “I have a hunch. The undead in the Buried City will give you a hard time entering other areas in your efforts to disturb their mission progress. There might even be Bosses that are on the same level as the Liches too!”


    “I know. That’s why we’re just going to test the waters...” Qin Ruo shuddered as he recalled what Darius the Dark Knight Commander told him.


    “If this doesn’t work, we will figure something else. At the moment, we don’t know much about the Buried City. So, we could only take one step at a time.”


    “...”


    “Still, all of you will need to keep up the pace. You should make preparation for and research more before you head to the Aricus Underground Ruins. Other than that, help me collect information in regards to other Tier 4 Ultimate Bosses’ location and information along the way.”


    Everyone’s morale rose as they heard what Qin Ruo said, “So, you want to take on more Tier 4 Ultimate Boss?” They inquired with great excitement.


    “I would be lying if I say I don’t want to.” Qin Ruo smiled. “Taking out a Tier 4 Ultimate Boss would yield us two Divinity Crystals and also some Legendary equipment. Who would give up on treasures as priceless as this?”


    “But you said thatst time was just pure luck. You sure you could pull it off again?” ck Rock was so surprised and excited as he asked this.


    Qin Ruo grinned slightly.


    “It almost took me out because I was facing it alone. Next time though... if you guys are by my side, what is there for me to worry about? Unlike the Buried City, we could get two Divinity Crystals in one go via this method. I believe the other Tier 5 veteran yers realized this too... so we should get to the Tier 4 Ultimate Bosses before anyone else. If we don’t do it now, it would be much harder for us to do this in the future.” Indeed, in the huge swirls of rivalry amongst the ns, Fallen Angels would not always get to grab the upper hand every time.


    “Nah, killing Ultimate Bosses is so nerve-wracking that I don’t think anyone else could take them on.”


    “Don’t underestimate others... besides, the early bird gets the worm. So, get ready. After Snowleaf is done with her fusion, we would then have five Tier 5 winged yers on our side... now if we could level up and strengthen you three further too... Get prepared early so that we could put our n on the map. And if that happens, it would free my hands to do some other things too.”


    “Right!”


    ck Rock finally understood.


    “So, you’ve been working on getting us Divinity Crystals because you want to be an absent leader of the n? Now let’s see if we would forgive you, huh?”


    “Oh no, we won’t!”


    “No no, I’m doing this without ill intent.” Qin Ruo quickly exined himself, waving his hands.


    “Don’t find excuses for your shamelessness! Beat him!”


    “Yeah, beat him!”


    ***


    Several minutester, a wounded man flew from Moonrise City into Mythical Battlefield’s air space... There were still two hours before the time to rendezvous. Qin Ruo nned to umte money and unlock the stats for his Ring of Honor before he traveled to the Buried City.
