Chapter 184: Purple Rose’s Dowry

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not long after Little Rain turned around and left, countless loudspeakers erupted.

“The number one guild in the world has accepted a new member. A powerful player has arrived. His resume has been sent to his sister’s mailbox. Brother Netherworld says that the guild will collect twenty percent of your resources. He also said that he doesn’t care if this condition scares people away.”

Little Rain was indeed a rich woman. She had immediately used the loudspeakers to flood everyone’s screens, flooding people with dozens of messages in a row.

Li Cheng was speechless when he saw this. Just obtaining these loudspeakers would require commoners to work for decades. He could not imagine the happiness of the rich.

After that, he did not bother about her anymore. After all, he just wanted to find some workers. She could do as she pleased.

At this moment, the players of the Divine Dragon Alliance saw the message that Little Rain had posted. It immediately caused a commotion.

“Ah, this... Collecting twenty percent? Did I hear wrongly? Isn’t this a little too much?”

“In the past, the three large guilds only collected five percent.”

“Hehe, Netherworld’s face is showing now.”

“So what if Netherworld boss wants to collect twenty percent of our resources? If you follow Netherworld, you’ll gain even more than that!”

“No way, no way, no way. Don’t tell me that people really think twenty percent is a lot?”

“Little Rain, I’ve been playing online games for more than ten years. I’m quite familiar with various mechanisms. Can I join the guild?”

“Sister Little Rain, look at me. I’m a female university student and I can act cute. Can I join the guild?”

A one-fifth levy rate had indeed scared off many players, but Li Cheng did not care at all. What was the most abundant thing in the Divine Dragon Alliance? The number of people!

Ordinary players were eager to enter, but the other guilds were not in a good mood.

The earlier a guild was established, the greater the advantage it had, namely the ability to snatch people in advance. In addition to Li Cheng’s current prestige, the various large guilds could not help but suspect that the top players would be sucked away by him alone.

The only consolation was that there was a limit to the number of people a guild could have. Otherwise, they would need to create a guild themselves. They would have just joined Li Cheng’s Extreme God Guild.

At this moment, Purple Rose came up to Li Cheng with a complicated expression. Before Li Cheng had created a guild, they were still friends. Now, however, they were enemies.

When she thought of this, her scalp went numb. She had witnessed how Li Cheng had defended himself against the monster siege.

The gap between the two of them was indescribable, even with her knowledge.

Seeing Purple Rose’s approaching figure, Li Cheng fell into deep thought. He then asked, “I still have a few guild tokens. Do you want them? They’re of the highest level!”

Hearing this, Purple Rose’s eyes lit up. Although she was no longer number one in the world, being number two was not bad. She would also have some privileges.

However, she had been in contact with Li Cheng for a long time. She knew Li Cheng’s character. He would not be this kind for no reason, so she asked him directly, “What’s the price?”

Seeing how Purple Rose was so smart, Li Cheng smiled and said, “The Rose Guild will hand over ten percent of your yearly income.

“If you agree to this, we can form an alliance.”

Hearing this, Purple Rose subconsciously wanted to curse. The Rose Guild had always been one of the three big guilds of the Divine Dragon Alliance. One-tenth of their total yearly income?

It was obvious that this was a very terrifying number, but... She was still a little tempted.

Purple Rose blinked her big eyes a few times. Could it be that she was his employee? Why was she so eager?

Impossible!

With this thought in mind, Purple Rose shook her head again and again. Still, she was curious about why she even had such a thought. Was it really her?

Purple Rose glared at Li Cheng, gritted her teeth, and said, “I can’t make this decision alone. I need to discuss this with the people in my guild.”

Li Cheng was not surprised by this. Although she was the Guild Leader and the person with the most power, levying one-tenth of their total resources was not something that Purple Rose alone could decide. He shrugged and said, “Do whatever you want.”

Purple Rose quickly sent news to the Rose Guild’s chat. When the members of the Rose Guild heard the news, they were all silent. A 10% rate was really too high.

Most of the members of the Rose Guild were civilian players. When their initial discussions were over, the recruitment rate was set at around 3%.

However, at the thought that the other party was Netherworld, the group immediately became active.

“Hehe... An alliance sounds nice, but no matter how I look at it, Netherworld Boss is proposing marriage with us again?”

“But... If that’s the case, why is Netherworld asking us for money?”

“Hehe, you don’t understand, right? In the future, we’ll all be one family, so why talk about expropriation?”

“That’s right! If we marry big sister over, this ten percent will be big sister’s dowry. I have no objections.”

“Yeah, for the sake of her happiness, we’ll even accept a twenty percent rate, let alone ten percent!”

Purple Rose looked at their messages and veins popped out on her forehead. If she did not stop them now, she would not know where to start.

“That’s enough. Say something human. We’re talking about serious business now!”

Seeing that Purple Rose was getting a little angry, the group quieted down a little.

Having been with Purple Rose for a long time, they knew how thin-skinned she was, so they began to discuss with her seriously.

“I don’t think there’s any problem. If we follow Netherworld, our future profits will definitely be more than this.”

“I agree. Netherworld’s too strong. We’ll all get meat if we follow him.”

“His own guild, Extreme God, collects twenty percent of his members’ resources. If we follow him, we’ll definitely gain more than we lose!”

To Purple Rose’s surprise, more than 90% of the Rose Guild’s members had agreed to Li Cheng’s terms. She had expected to hear the members cursing at him.

She took a few deep breaths and said, “If that’s the case, then it’s settled.”

...

The Rose Guild’s decision was within Li Cheng’s expectations. They had profited greatly from this wave of monster attacks and all of their troops had been saved. In the coming week, these girls would definitely shine brilliantly.

After they experienced the benefits of following Li Cheng, the workers were very obedient and felt that they had profited. This was a win-win situation for all sides.

Thinking of this, Li Cheng threw a guild token to Purple Rose.

“Is it really the highest-level guild token?!” Purple Rose cried out in surprise when she received the token. She originally thought that Li Cheng was joking when he said he had the highest-level guild token.. Now that she saw it in real life, she realized that it had a 10% levy rate, which was the ‘friendship rate’ that Li Cheng had given her.
