When Jiang Shi glanced at Han Yuze’s expression, he knew that this person’s reluctance was all an act.
But even so, this charming appearance was indeed quite heartwarming.
Most importantly, just the thought of the potential turmoil that God Yu’s entry into the Seven Silver Coins might cause, the gene inside him, which feared that the world would not be in chaos, became somewhat restless.
Sure enough, the unknown future always filled people with anticipation.
So Jiang Shi thought for a moment and decided not to stop him.
After all, there was really no need to stop him.
The president of the Seven Silver Coins is [Island Forest], and the vice president is [What Pen Carries Fragrance] He doesn’t need to meddle in their affairs.
“Come if you want. What do you want me to do? Your account has already been added to our guild, and we haven’t set up any membership review, so just submit an application,” Jiang Shi said, adding a friendly reminder to Han Yuze, “But if you want to join, do it soon. Players outside are already attracted by the first kill achievement. There have been a lot of new members today, and the remaining slots are probably limited. Don’t be too slow.”
After saying this, Han Yuze opened the guild panel and took a look.
Just as Jiang Shi had said, there were indeed many new members in the guild. Originally, there were nearly half of the slots available for guild members, but in just one day, almost all of them had been filled. In the few seconds that Han Yuze quickly scanned through, two more people had joined.
The available slots were reduced to just three.
Han Yuze’s heart skipped a beat. He immediately greeted Jiang Shi and went offline without hesitation.
Then he logged into Yu Weize’s account and headed straight for the Guild Joint Management Bureau.
A few minutes later, a new entry notice popped up.
[[System] Welcome player Yu Weize to join the Seven Silver Coins guild.]
The normally active guild channel suddenly fell silent for a moment.
Due to the first kill achievement, Seven Silver Coins had a strong impact on the advertising in Genesis, and many players who were rejected by professional guilds naturally came to join the guild.
Since last night, the system notifications for new members had not stopped.
Although there were bound to be some undercover agents among these new members from other guilds, the so-called casual retirement guild was originally a place where members came and went freely. It didn’t matter who joined, as long as it made the guild look lively.
Throughout the day, the guild channel was always bustling with chat. But for a brief moment, right after Yu Weize’s entry notice popped up, it was the quietest moment of the day.
However, it was short-lived. The following reaction from everyone was explosive due to their shock.
[New Village Student: OMG, am I hallucinating? Look who I just saw!]
[Newbie Guide: Can Genesis allow the same name?]
[Lemon-Scented Girl: Same name? What! It’s really God Yu! I just left the Crusaders this afternoon and was wondering which professional guild to join, and he came here?!]
[Impact Crown Dream: I have a different thought from you guys. We just got the first kill of the Crusaders, and now Yu Weize is coming. Is he looking for trouble?]
[The Whole World 2C: So, are they going to fight? Popcorn, sunflower seeds, and soda.]
[One with an Open Mind: Am I the only one who suspects that it was a mistake when the counter staff registered him? He’ll probably leave soon.]
[Lil’s Rie: Indeed, I can’t think of any reason why a big shot like him would join our guild…]
[Snowy Mysterious City: Ah, no matter when he leaves, I can say I’ve been in the same guild as God Yu!]
[Hello: Everyone should go to the forums and show off. The Crusaders are currently in chaos, and everyone is guessing which guild God Yu will join, but he came here! Let’s make a big show of it, right?]
[Hehehehehe: I can’t stop laughing. This is probably the closest I’ve been to the center of the discussion.]
The guild channel was flooded with messages at a speed that was hard to keep up with, and the level of activity quickly exceeded the previous peak in guild history.
On the other side, many people couldn’t contain their excitement and immediately spread the news of Yu Weize joining the Seven Silver Coins.
Five minutes later, Han Yuze, the one who caused the uproar, finally showed up in the guild channel.
[Yu Weize: Hi everyone.]
[Yu Weize: We’re family from now on, please take care of me~ 😊]
All the speculations about first kills, revenge, and registration mistakes quickly vanished with these few words.
After digesting the news, the members of the Seven Silver Coins were elated.
From the sound of it, is God Yu really planning to stay in the Seven Silver Coins guild?
The situation became excessively heated, at one point becoming somewhat uncontrollable.
When Jiang Shi opened the guild channel, Han Yuze had already mingled with the guild members with a cheerful demeanor.
If someone didn’t know any better, just by looking at this familiar interaction, they might have thought that some veteran guild member had returned.
Jiang Shi couldn’t help but chuckle.
Seeing a friend request message, he opened it and found that it was from their vice president.
What Pen Carries Fragrance was clearly startled by Yu Weize’s sudden entry into the guild and sent three consecutive messages.
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: Main Account, are you there? Are you there, Main Account!]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: You know God Yu, right? What’s his situation?]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: The guild leader isn’t here, and I dare not make a sound. If you’re there, please reply quickly and give me some information?]
[Material Main Account: Information about what?]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: Do I even need to ask? You tell me, is he here to join us or seek revenge on us?]
Can someone really come back seeking revenge for a boss they personally snatched?
Jiang Shi suddenly became curious. He wondered how the vice president would react if he told her that the sweetie cutie newbie was actually Yu Weize. But he thought about it for a moment and decided to reassure her instead, considering her mental well-being.
[Material Main Account: Confirmed. Yu Weize asked me first, and I invited him.]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: That’s great, then I can rest easy!]
[Material Main Account: You can rest easy with just that?]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: Well, what else should I do?]
[Material Main Account: ~^_^~]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: ?]
[Material Main Account: Nothing, you’ll find out in a few days.]
[What Pen Carries Fragrance: … Can you please explain things clearly?]
Jiang Shi sent an expression that was meant to be understood without words and then ignored the subsequent bombardment of messages, closing the conversation.
One could only say that What Pen Carries Fragrance, a casual gamer, had a rather simplistic view of the situation. The real issue now shouldn’t be whether Yu Weize would seek revenge on them but rather the attitude of the professional guilds that intended to recruit him and the upcoming wave of public opinion.
As for the professional guilds, the others were manageable, but the members of the Crusaders had obviously found out that Yu Weize had participated in the first kill battle. Having had their loot stolen right under their noses, they were unlikely to let it slide.
So, when Yu Weize spoke, Jiang Shi already knew.
This guy wasn’t homeless looking for shelter; he was finding a place to take refuge. Simultaneously, he saw that Yu Weize had been leading a rather leisurely gaming life lately and decided to send him some entertainment.
As for the subsequent public opinion, that pressure would fall on the Seven Silver Coins guild. Jiang Shi was just an ordinary guild member, so he would let the guild leader and vice-leader handle it when the time came.
Jiang Ordinary Guild Member Shi glanced at the scrolling guild channel for a moment, but he wasn’t particularly interested and closed it.
He turned around and continued to the shop in the island’s forest, where he went to collect the proceeds from the second batch of runestones he had put up for sale.
Jiang Shi hadn’t expected that someone would be waiting for him in advance. Before he could even enter the shop, a man rushed out from around the corner.
Jiang Shi quickly glanced at the other person’s ID.
[Brave the World] wasn’t that the guild member from the Rattlesnakes who had taken away all of his recovery-effect runestones?
Jiang Shi instantly understood the purpose of the other person’s visit, so he didn’t waste any time and got straight to the point: “I’m sorry, I know you’re interested in my runestones, but I have no intention of joining your Rattlesnakes guild.”
[Brave the World] had been sent by his superiors to find Jiang Shi, but because the NPC shopkeepers didn’t know how to contact him, they had no choice but to stake out for a day and night, waiting for him.
Before this, he had repeatedly prepared a series of invitation words in his mind, but he never expected that he would be stopped before he even had the chance to speak.
This was probably the quickest and most straightforward rejection in his experience of headhunting in the virtual world.
The Rattlesnakes were considered a top-tier professional guild, known for their generous perks and benefits. Usually, players were eager to secure a spot within their ranks, and even if they had other considerations, at most they would hesitate before explaining their reasons. However, nothing like the current situation had ever happened, where the invitation was effectively terminated before it began.
One sentence and it had put an end to the discussion.
After a long pause, he regained his composure and awkwardly said, “Well… how about reconsidering it?”
“Really no need to consider, thank you,” Jiang Shi politely responded, then sidestepped and entered the shop.
The shopkeeper, Bulwo, offered a welcoming smile as he handed over the counted sales proceeds. “Hello, this is the profit from the sales you placed in our shop. Please check it carefully. Oh, by the way, dear customer, this time, as before, the boss at the entrance took all the runestones.”
Jiang Shi thanked Bulwo and collected the silver coins. He glanced at the figure still waiting outside the door from the corner of his eye.
Actually, when Brave the World appeared in front of him, he could already speculate on the outcome. The Rattlesnakes had clearly set their sights on his rare attribute runestones, so if they wanted to recruit him, they wouldn’t want his runestones to enter the market for others to see.
Brave the World noticed Jiang Shi’s gaze and dryly offered him a smile.
On the other hand, they had already conveyed the rejection from this end and were patiently waiting for further instructions from the Rattlesnakes guild.
What Brave the World didn’t know was that the Rattlesnakes’ Knife Five Vertical was also feeling a headache at this moment. Just now, he received the message that Yu Weize had joined the Seven Silver Coins guild.
After recognizing Yu Weize’s alt at the scene of the first kill,Knife Five Vertical had realized that this runemaster, who could seamlessly coordinate with Yu Weize was certainly not an ordinary player.
And now, Yu Weize had left the Crusaders guild and hadn’t contacted any of the professional guilds. Instead, he directly joined this retirement guild, the Seven Silver Coins.
From the moment the Seven Silver Coins guild appeared, everything they had shown had an air of strangeness about it.
This couldn’t possibly be just an ordinary retirement guild; there had to be more to it!
Although he couldn’t put his finger on it, the Knife Five Vertical had a feeling that both Yu Weize and this runemaster must be recruited into the Rattlesnakes at all costs. Otherwise, the situation might escalate in an even more uncontrollable direction.
The Knife Five Vertical finally made a decision.
Regardless of whether they could successfully recruit him, they needed to show a certain attitude.
[Knife Five Vertical: Find a way to invite the player with the Material Main Account to our guild territory for a chat.]
When Brave the World saw this message, he instinctively rubbed his eyes, feeling somewhat dazed by what he had just read.
What was going on? Wasn’t this just an ordinary runemaster player with some good recipes? Judging by the message, the Snake God himself wanted to personally recruit him?!
His pupils shook, and for a moment, Brave the World didn’t know how to describe his feelings.
Seeing the runemaster coming out of the shop again, he quickly regained his composure and approached him without any delay. “Hello, I hope it’s not too much trouble. Do you have some time now? Main God … would like to invite you to the guild territory for a meeting.”
Jiang Shi wasn’t quite used to the “Main God” title but paused for a moment before realizing who it referred to.
Knife Five Vertical wanted to meet him?
Brave the World was concerned that he might face another rejection and didn’t expect such a swift and positive response this time.
Under the sudden surprise, he immediately made a “please” gesture and said, “Okay, this way!”
