I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.

[System notification: Your inventory is full; you cannot pick up any more items.]

Looking at the equipment that was still mostly uncollected, Li Wu felt a "happy trouble" for the first time.

He turned to look at Hua Zitong and found that she had also stopped what she was doing, obviously encountering the same problem.

"What should we do?" Li Wu asked.

Hua Zitong looked around and occasionally saw the figures of some players hiding behind trees or in the crevices of rocks, peeking out.

Those were all casual players who had been terrified before, but were too greedy to leave and wanted to see if they could find a bargain.

If I go back to the village now, all my equipment will probably be gone when I come back.

Moreover, and most importantly, the two of them are now famous again!

There's no going back!

"Looks like we'll have to call in more people!"

"Call for backup?"

Li Wu was puzzled. Who should he call over?

A meaningful smile appeared on Hua Zitong's lips. "We can package these things and sell them to an 'ally'."

"The Flower Language Guild?" Li Wu immediately understood what she meant.

“That’s right,” Hua Zitong said. “They just announced to the world that we are their ‘most honored ally.’ Now is the time to test their sincerity.”

Li Wu's eyes lit up; this was indeed a good idea, saving time and effort.

What they lack most right now is time.

"Okay, we'll do it your way." Li Wu finally made the decision.

Hua Zitong immediately opened her friends list and found the ID "Huayu Xiaofeng".

She carefully considered her words before sending a message.

【Seeking Mist Among Flowers: Hello, I am Seeking Mist Among Flowers.】

[Seeking Mist Among Flowers: We've cleared out a large quantity of equipment from the Blackrock Mountains loot. Would your guild be interested in making a bulk purchase?]

I received a reply in less than three seconds after the message was sent.

The speed of the reply was abnormally fast.

[Flower Language_Xiao Feng: Ahhh! Master! You finally contacted me!]

[Flower Language_Little Phoenix: Interested! Of course interested! Extremely interested! Our guild wants everything! Where are you? We're coming right away! Prices are absolutely negotiable!]

A series of overly enthusiastic exclamation marks made Li Wu's eyelids twitch.

He looked at Hua Zitong, his eyes filled with even more doubt.

Isn't the Flower Language Guild's attitude a bit too enthusiastic?

"They said they're coming right away," Hua Zitong said, her expression somewhat unnatural, as she closed the communication interface. "Let's wait for them here."

Before long, Huayu and Xiaofeng led a small team to the Black Stone Mountains.

"Master of Seeking Fog Among Flowers! Master of Viewing Flowers Through Fog!"

Upon seeing the two, Hua Yu and Xiao Feng's faces immediately filled with admiring yet somewhat reserved smiles.

The people behind her also smiled kindly, their eyes filled with curiosity and awe.

"Greetings, esteemed players. I am the vice president of the Flower Language Guild. My name is Flower Language_Riding the Wind." A warrior player who appeared quite composed stepped forward and introduced himself.

His attitude was neither humble nor arrogant, but his words carried a clear sense of respect.

The language of flowers: riding the wind.

Li Wu's gaze lingered on him for a moment.

He was tall, well-equipped, and had a steady gaze; standing there, he was like a mountain you could rely on.

His attitude was humble, but his composure was the confidence that only a core member of a top guild could possess.

Hua Yu and Cheng Feng's gaze did not linger on Li Wu and Hua Zitong for long; he was quickly drawn to the scene on the other side.

Or rather, they were intimidated.

It was a colossal pit that defies description.

With a diameter exceeding fifty meters, the edge of the crater is formed from crystals created by the cooling of glass, refracting an eerie and magnificent light under the setting sun. Deep within the crater, dark red magma, not yet completely extinguished, flows slowly, emitting wisps of black smoke.

The entire Blackrock Mountain Range looks as if it was smashed by a meteorite from outer space, leaving a huge scar.

Destruction, charred black, apocalypse.

The guild elites behind Huayu and Chengfeng were all stunned, their Adam's apples bobbing up and down, but they couldn't make a sound.

They had all seen the blurry screenshot in the public channel and heard about the tragic state of the Blood Wolf Guild.

But when they stand here in person, they can truly understand that photos and words cannot convey even a fraction of the extreme visual impact and soul-stirring experience.

"this……"

Hua Yu Chengfeng took a deep breath before he could barely find his voice. He turned to look at Li Wu.

"This... is this what the 'Seeing Through the Fog' master caused with a single arrow?"

Li Wu didn't speak, but simply glanced at him calmly and then nodded slightly.

A nod.

But it carries more weight than any grand pronouncement.

The flower language, the heart riding the wind, suddenly contracted.

Having received an affirmative answer, the way he and his teammates looked at Li Wu completely changed.

It was no longer just curiosity and awe, but... a fear of non-human existence.

One arrow killed nearly a hundred people and melted the earth.

This goes beyond their understanding of the concept of "player".

"cough……"

Hua Zitong broke the oppressive silence, pointing to the scattered glowing equipment on the ground and speaking in a calm tone.

"We didn't invite you here to sightsee."

"Ah, right, right, right!" Hua Yu and Xiao Feng suddenly realized what was happening and quickly ran to Hua Zitong's side, looking at her with admiration. "Great God, we want all your spoils! The price is absolutely fair!"

Hua Yu and Cheng Feng immediately came to their senses. They quickly adjusted their mindset, regained their professional demeanor, and bowed slightly to Li Wu and Hua Zitong.

"Gentlemen, we've come with the utmost sincerity. We hope to purchase all of these spoils. As for the price, we will send someone to inventory and appraise them, guaranteeing that each item will be purchased at 10% above the market price. Is that acceptable to you?"

10% higher than the market price.

These conditions are quite generous.

Li Wu looked at Hua Zitong, who gave him a "no problem" look.

"Okay," Li Wu replied succinctly.

"good!"

Hua Yu and Cheng Feng perked up and immediately waved to their subordinates, "Get to work!"

The people he brought were clearly elites from the guild, with well-defined roles and extremely high efficiency. Two were responsible for guarding, while the other two took out professional appraisal tools and began quickly classifying and counting the equipment on the ground.

"Regular leather armor, level 12, drop it here!"

"Ordinary longswords, LV10, put them all together!"

"Excellent! An excellent one! [Swamp Walker Leggings], LV10! Great stats!"

"Holy crap, there's one here too! [Lava Heart Gauntlets]! A top-tier item for fire mages!"

"Another excellent piece! It's a glove!"

……

As the inventory work progressed, the expressions on the faces of the members of the Flower Language Guild gradually changed from professionalism to shock, and finally to complete numbness.

Excellent equipment, one piece, two pieces, three pieces...

They felt like they weren't cleaning up spoils of war, but rather browsing a high-end equipment wholesale market.

This time, the Blood Wolf Guild has sent out its best players, all of whom are high-level and well-equipped, in order to besiege Li Wu and Hua Zitong.

Now, all of these people have become transport team leaders.

Finally, after more than ten minutes of intense counting, all the spoils were sorted and piled into several small heaps.

A player in charge of statistics, holding a small notebook, ran up to Huayu and Chengfeng with trembling hands to report.

"Vice...Vice President, the statistics...the statistics are finished."

"Common equipment, 38 pieces in total."

"High-quality equipment... a total of... 63 pieces!"

"Rare equipment, 12 pieces in total!"

"hiss--"

Even though Huayu and Chengfeng were mentally prepared, they still couldn't help but gasp when they heard the number.

This is almost equivalent to the entire output of their main elite squad after a week of hard work farming dungeons!

He composed himself, walked up to Li Wu, and gave her a number.

"Two experts, we have calculated the value of all the equipment. At a price 10% higher than the market price, the total is... three gold coins."

Three gold coins!

That's three thousand silver coins!

This number made Huayu and Xiaofeng, who were standing next to him, cover their mouths in shock.

Hua Yu and Cheng Feng looked at Li Wu with utmost sincerity in their eyes.

"If the two experts have no objection to this price, we can proceed with the transaction now."

Li Wu glanced at Hua Zitong.

Hua Zitong's expression remained unchanged, but a ripple stirred within her heart.

This price was significantly higher than she had anticipated. The Flower Language Guild had indeed shown considerable sincerity, one could even say... they were deliberately trying to curry favor.

She nodded almost imperceptibly at Li Wu.

"trade."

Li Wu uttered two words.

The next second, a transaction request was sent.

Li Wu clicked "OK".

[System notification: Player '花语丶乘风' has traded 3000 silver coins to you.]

The transaction was completed, and the members of the Flower Language Guild began to quickly pack all the equipment.

"Master of Seeing Flowers Through the Mist, this is our Flower Language Guild's 'Rose Badge.' With it, you can enjoy the highest level of discounts in any shop under our guild."

"At the same time, it is also a communicator. If you or the Flower Seeking Mist master encounter any trouble, especially retaliation from the Blood Wolf Guild, you can contact us through it at any time."

"Every word in our guild's announcement counts."

"A fight to the death."

The language of flowers, the tone of riding the wind, is solemn and firm.

Li Wu silently accepted the badge.

It feels slightly cool to the touch and has an exceptional texture.

He could sense the weight in the other person's words.

This sincerity is not just about the three gold coins, but also about the promise and protection of a super guild that this badge represents.

"Okay." Li Wu put away the badge and replied with only one word.

But Huayu and Chengfeng seemed to have received some great assurance, and a genuine smile appeared on their faces.

"Well then, I won't bother you two any longer. Until we meet again."

After saying that, he turned and left cleanly with his men, quickly disappearing into the shadows of the forest.

The noisy battlefield has once again returned to silence.

The afterglow of the setting sun cast long shadows of the two of them.

"It seems our 'ally' is quite sincere." Hua Zitong looked in the direction the Flower Language Guild had left, a faint smile playing on her lips.

Li Wu didn't speak, but just looked down at the exquisite rose badge in her backpack.

He had not completely let down his guard.

However, he had to admit that the Flower Language Guild's series of actions left him with absolutely nothing to criticize.

Perhaps, it really is as Hua Zitong said.

This is simply a purely commercial investment.
