I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Nearly a hundred adventurers were resting at a human settlement on the outskirts of Mil Village.

These adventurers all accepted the mission to hunt down the monsters in Mil Village.

During the two days that Anno spent in the town of Gruul, Xue Feibai, Lü Yan, and others were also fighting in the village of Mir.

Having learned new skills, Xue Feibai and the others, combined with their individual talents, were far stronger than their peers, and their monster-hunting speed was also much higher.

Before long, everyone leveled up to level 6!

They even successfully hunted down two monster patrol teams led by level 8 goblins—teams that were originally intended to hunt adventurers.

Although everyone was seriously injured, Xue Feibai also broke through level 6 and advanced to level 7!

The adventurers, who were resting, suddenly saw a lithe adventurer run back to their base, panting, and say, "We discovered that the monsters in Mir Village are packing up; it seems they're retreating. They've filled several carts with crafted equipment! What should we do?"

"What?" All the adventurers looked at Xue Feibai and his companions in the crowd.

Even the newly joined adventurers already knew that Xue Feibai and his companions had a close relationship with the president of the Adventurers' Guild, and their adventurer name tags all had the first few digits.

Moreover, Xue Feibai and his companions' strength has been recognized by everyone.

Xue Feibai, at level 7, is already considered a top player in the Adventurers' Guild.

"If they retreat, how are we supposed to hunt monsters and complete our mission?"

Xue Feibai's words instantly ignited the fighting spirit in the adventurers' hearts.

There are currently around two hundred monsters in Mir Village, with fewer than fifty of them being level 6 or higher. The strongest is a level 9 goblin—this is all information Mark gathered through in-depth investigation.

If it weren't for the fact that this leader was a recluse and had a group of trolls protecting him, Mark would have shot him dead on the spot.

However, the information Mark brought back from his exploration mission also made the other adventurers aware of the dangers of Mil Village.

In the past two days, many people have followed the example of Xue Feibai and others, and have formed teams on their own initiative.

Although this model is similar to that of a mercenary group, they only need to pay a 5% handling fee on the rewards they receive for completing missions, and the rest is split equally among the team members. They do not need to hand over half of the rewards to the mercenary group.

The mercenaries, who were also there to complete a mission, were incredibly envious.

Moreover, there are only so many adventurers coming to Mil Village to do quests right now, and everyone gets along well, so you can confidently entrust your back to your teammates during battles.

Those with the strength should explore deeper into Mil Village.

Even those who are weaker can find and kill lone monsters on the outskirts.

Many adventurers have earned a lot of money from the quests, and their strength has also improved.

These contributions were made by the monsters of Mil Village.

Now that these monsters are leaving, the adventurers are somewhat reluctant.

"In that case, let's pull off a big one!"

Xue Feibai sent someone to inform Mark, who was sleeping and resting.

After discovering that there was a level 9 goblin in Mir Village, the Viscount issued a Black Iron-level quest to the Adventurers' Guild: Kill this goblin, reward 1 gold!

Mark went in alone last night and tried once, but came out again for various reasons.

Now that the monsters are retreating, it's Mark's last chance to hunt down a level 9 goblin.

"Quickly, quickly, send someone to keep an eye on the monsters' movements and see if they're heading towards the Forbidden Forest. The rest of you, get ready. Once we figure out their route, we need to get ahead of them, set a trap, and ambush them."

Xue Feibai looked at the adventurers around him, who seemed ready to go all out, and licked his lips, saying, "As the acting guild leader, I am now issuing a guild-wide mission—[Resist the retreat of the monsters from Mir Village]."

Quest Level: Iron!

Mission objective: Kill as many monsters as possible, leaving behind as much equipment as possible. Don't be greedy; everyone's safety is the most important!

Mission Reward: Loot captured!

"Oh~!"

A group of adventurers immediately sprang into action.

Lü Yan walked to Xue Feibai's side and whispered, "They should have retreated towards the Forbidden Forest!"

"I know!"

Xue Feibai nodded, his face serious, and said, "Anno should be fighting in the town of Gruul right now."

If these items are transported back to the Forbidden Forest and strengthen the monsters there, it could affect Anno.

That's why we have to do everything we can to stop this batch of equipment.

"Fortunately, we managed to persuade them to come over as well, otherwise it would have been quite difficult with just our hundred adventurers!" Geng Qingxue smiled as she looked at the dozen or so excited mercenaries beside her.

These mercenaries were disciples of the mentors of Val'kam.

Although not everyone came, the highest level among those who did was level 8.

With Mark also present at this stronghold, they now possess the strength to ambush the monsters of Mil Village.

The monsters, who were packing their things to run away, never expected that their way home would be full of difficulties and dangers.

......

Anno, whom Xue Feibai mistakenly believed was still in the town of Gruul, had already been riding his Wind Wolf southeast for a full day.

Excluding rest periods, at the speed of the wind wolf, it ran at least two hundred kilometers.

When they arrived at a town that night, Anno learned that he had left the southern border of the Kingdom of Nigal and arrived at the eastern border!

At this moment, the direction that my mind was still pointing to was east.

The next day, Anno headed east.

Around noon, they finally found a dilapidated church in a valley.

If it weren't for the Wind Wolves, it would have taken Anno at least a week to travel such a long distance.

The church in the valley is just as dilapidated as the one in the Forbidden Forest.

The area was overgrown with weeds and occupied by dozens of spiders with human-like faces.

Race: Ghost-faced Spider

Rating: 10

Occupation: None

Life: 2500/2500

Mana: 1000/1000

Skills: [Silk Spin], [Web Weaving], [Venom Injection]

When Anno saw that the highest level of these ghost spiders was only level 10, and the rest were all level 7 or 8, he breathed a sigh of relief and sent a goblin forward to test the waters.

The ghost-faced spiders clinging to the web sensed the movement coming from the silk and began to move.

As soon as the goblin stepped into the church, he was hit by countless spider silks and wrapped up like a dumpling.

Spider silk is sticky, but once wrapped, it becomes incredibly hard.

The goblin, wrapped up, had no way to break free.

A ghastly spider crawled up to the immobilized goblin, opened its gaping maw that stretched all the way to its ears, revealing four venomous fangs.

Just as they were about to stab, the goblin suddenly vanished.

The ghost-faced spider was puzzled, but then it was met with two huge fireballs.

It was Anno and the goblin priest who released the [Exploding Fireball].

Boom!

Flames shot into the sky, and many of the ghost-faced spiders that couldn't get out of the way in time were burned to ashes.

And Anno also obtained a brand new monster soul.

[Obtained 22 Ghost-Faced Spider Souls (White)]

[Obtain Ghost-Faced Spider Soul (Green) x3]

"Do I need spider fangs and spider legs to summon it?"

After learning the summoning conditions, Anno ordered his summoned creatures to attack the group of ghost-faced spiders.

To explore the church, these ghastly spiders must be cleared out.
