City of Light.
The intensity was brewing in the sea of people, and it was only getting stronger. The culprit stood in the middle.

Hey, you in front, I came specially from Fire City, can you please make it easy for me?


Hmph, make it easy for you? What do you think?


This is 1 gold coin…




Here, here you go, please…

After seeing a luxuriously clad player buy a seat to watch the drama, the audience finally understood the impact of this event. There were three types of people amongst the crowd:
1) Those that would sit this one out and reap the spoils later.
2) Those that would benefit when Lone Wolf dished out the equipment in a fit of rage.
3) Those that wanted to record the event and post it on the forum.
Presently, the City of Light was the center of attention!
Lin Jie, Wantless, Fat Cattle, Bu Yi, and Baili Xuanyuan were all in the middle of the crowd.
Master Blue remained in combat readiness.
Baili Xuanyuan surveyed the surroundings and noticed that amongst the gathered players were many newcomers. Those newcomers were all notable players in the gaming world! Other than the two established guilds in the City of Light, Triumphant Midnight, and Hunter’s Guild, there were countless other scouts from both new and famous guilds. Everyone was there to gather information.
‘This is… I can’t believe even those fellows from Dugu Qiubai Guild are here. That guild is known for its luxurious mansions, and the inner circle is filled with wealthy men with too much money. How big must Lone Wolf’s name be to attract them here?’ Baili Xuanyuan was shocked.


The player that had spent 1 gold coin to purchase the seat was the Vice Chairman of the tyrannic Dugu Qiubai Guild—Lian Heng. That man had crazy strong abilities in real life but was a real wastrel and the most eye-catching one in the guild.
Lin Jie stood firm with his head risen as he glanced with a seemingly calm look. He had already scanned all the players in the surroundings with the help of the Silver-Feathered Eagle’s vision. He was prepared to show off his wealth and assert dominance but was not going to be a foolish man. In his previous life, the number of famous players had been more than he could count. Amongst the current players, the top two tiers were all people he wanted to recruit.
Lin Jie made a gesture and raised his voice.
Fellow brothers, I’ve long held a grudge against Baili Xuanyuan. I, Lone Wolf, formed the Brotherhood, built The Brothers’ City only with one purpose in mind. It is to let the fellow players have a place to live. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be more profitable if I created a Brothers’ Guild or Brotherhood Guild? I believe everyone knows this point, so I shall not elaborate on it. Currently, Baili Xuanyuan wants to purchase the loot that I have obtained from farming countless Enhanced Elites in a Level 45 map. I am leaving this out here. To enemies, I will not be soft, and to friends, I will share my gains! Today, those on Brotherhood’s side, are all my brothers, and will all receive benefits!

Enough with the nonsense, Blue, revert these 10 Level 40 Bronze weapons to minerals!
Lin Jie wasted no time as he dumped the 10 weapons to Blue.
Blue’s smithing grade had leveled up after creating the Sub-Legendary Fire Gun, Silent Killer. It would only take him around 10 minutes to create 10 weapons, let’s not talk about reverting weapons.
Duang—
Blue hammered on, and sparks flew. His hands lit up in flames, like burning metal, as all 10 weapons became metal knobs with every sound of hammering.

Dwarf smithing!
bellowed Blue and hammered 10 times consecutively. With every sound of hammering, the metal blocks set and grew in transparency. After 10 strikes, it became a fist-sized Dextrin!

Alright, brother, your name is Dragon Slayer Knight? That sounds powerful! This Dextrin is the condensation of 10 Level 40 weapons with decent attributes. However, your Silver spear’s attributes aren’t high, and it is only Level 10. I shall give you the Dextrin to enhance your weapon!
Lin Jie pointed at a Level 25 knight clad in a mixture of Bronze and Silver equipment as he asked,
Blue, do you have a Level 25 Spear-Smithing Formula?

Blue laughed.
Of course! Anything you want!




Okay, enhance this Silver equipment for this brother!
said Lin Jie, and Blue grabbed the Silver spear from the knight’s hands. This spear was only a Level 10 equipment with lousy stats. It was very trashy in the hands of the Level 25 player.
The spear spun in mid-air and landed in the furnace. Immediately after, the Dextrin turned to molten iron under Blue’s hands and bound with the spear after rounds of smithing and sparks flew.
Whoosh—
After several seconds, the furnace burst open, and a golden double-sided long spear flew out, shooting firmly into the group in front of the knight. The flaming aura burned his face as it trembled non-stop.

Gold— Gold equipment! Level 25 Gold spear, with attributes comparable to Dark Gold fragments! It only lacks an attached skill. If I had this spear, I would probably be stronger than the number 1 Mage in the team!


Oh my god, he destroyed 10 weapons just to enhance a low-grade weapon, it’s too scary! If he were to smelt countless weapons, would he be able to smith Dark Gold and Sub-Legendary weapons?


Are you an idiot? This method is a reckless waste of materials and is only effective for the enhancement of Bronze and Silver equipment. The maximum enhancement is the grade of Gold. Look, 10 high-grade weapons and a low-grade weapon just to form a Gold weapon, how much loss did he incur? And who can take out Level 40 equipment so easily?


I think Lone Wolf is being considerate of those of us that are unable to use the equipment. What a caring man!

Whoosh— Whoosh—
Dragon Slayer Knight appeared to be around 20 years old. He wheezed like a bull while staring at the spear with a face red from excitement. He had entered the game late and was only a low-level player. Despite training hard, he had been the cannon fodder for other players. However, with a weapon like this, his abilities would shoot up instantly and would be able to join an above-average team. In terms of smaller guilds, he would be eligible to join an elite team tool.



Thank you so much!
Dragon Slayer Knight said respectfully,
I will not join any other guild, from today onwards, I belong to the Brotherhood!

Lin Jie nodded. That man was among the top 5,000 on the Knight’s Ranking Board. Although he wasn’t the strongest, he was capable in his own rights.
Worth!
Lin Jie already had a plan in choosing the ones he wanted to help.
Lin Jie pointed again, this time at a perplexed-looking Mage.
Sardine! You are equipped with the Level 15 Gold Armor Set [Thunderbolt], right? What a pity, you lack the most important thing, the robe. And when you reach Level 27, you will have to switch it again. Such being the case, I shall give you a large amount of Iron Dextrin, 3 Gold wands, and a drop of Liquid Mithril to enhance your set. With the full set, you can enhance it to a Level 25 Armour Set!

Shoosh!
Various materials flew out of Lin Jie’s bag like trash, with 3 shiny, golden wands among them! However, the most valuable one was the drop of Liquid Mithril, which had been obtained after that battle at the Epidemic Pond. It was ultra-rare!
These items were attached to the Mage’s equipment under Blue’s smithing. Blue was the Earth Sword Saint’s disciple and was familiar with countless formulas, forging a thunder robe was one of the easiest things for him! Instantly, the Mage’s equipment shone brightly as it leveled up. The full set let out thunderstorms and was stronger than a Level 30 Armour Set!

Oh my god! Upgrading a Gold Armor Set and raising its attributes, he can do that?


Normal people can’t do that, but Lone Wolf can! Didn’t you see Blacksmith Blue receiving orders so obediently from Lone Wolf?




Let me pass, I want to get equipment too!

Instantly, the crowd fired up!
Countless players squeezed towards Lin Jie in the hopes of getting seen by Lin Jie and getting leveled up!
This was a chance, and a rare one, especially so since it was free! At the same time, the players’ impression of Lin Jie grew significantly! Lin Jie randomly enhanced the equipment of 10 more people. All ten of them were players with top-notch abilities. They had just joined the game late and hence had yet to be discovered. Although they were not the best, they still had very high potential. Recruiting them into the Brotherhood was the best choice.

Leader Lone Wolf, I want to join the Brotherhood, give me some welfare!


I will live and die as a member of the Brotherhood!

Countless players were chanting all types of cheers and clamping onto Lin Jie. With such free and safe benefits, everyone was fighting for it. Furthermore, there were only advantages in joining the Brotherhood.

Alright, I shall open the granary today!
Lin Jie chuckled as he rearranged the items on his stall and gave out equipment to the players that he had already spotted! This caused another huge sensation!

Baili Xuanyuan, what are you going to do now?
Lin Jie glared at the beggar-like Baili Xuanyuan and scoffed.
You want to purchase my equipment to boost your abilities and show off your wealth for recruitment? Your grand plan has fallen through. Money isn’t everything in this game, so what if you have billions of coins? Even if you create armor with all your coins, I can still kill you with no effort.

Ding~
—
Player Smoking Pig has left the guild.

—
Player One Cup Two Potheads has left the guild.

Countless prompt messages rang as all the newly recruited players left the guild in seconds to suck up to Lin Jie. Some of the older members could not resist the temptation and left for the same reason.
Baili Xuanyuan ground his teeth. He did not expect for Lin Jie to be so well-versed in persuading the players and to be so enterprising to dish out more than 100 pieces of equipment, as well as several hundreds of materials in the blink of an eye! He had really underestimated him!
First, he had made use of the fact that Master Blue, this smithing master with the highest prestige in the realm, had been obeying his orders to assert dominance and show the difference between him and normal players.
Immediately after, he had enhanced 10 of their items, causing them to evolve and be among the top competitors instantly. This had revealed his wealth and his keen abilities that couldn’t be bought over by monetary means.
These closely linked events revealed his assiduous attention to details, which was incomparable!
Lone Wolf’s fame grew after this farce and even received the title of being generous and brotherly to others. Brotherhood was also known to many!
