Third-Class Military Merit Medal

"I'll send you the guide shortly." Lin Yuan nodded toward Luo Yushang.

He then tossed the Placement Crystal to Lin Yandong.

"President Lin, this is for you."

Lin Yandong carefully caught it.

After seeing the two affixes on it, he smiled broadly and said,

"Brother Lin, you're truly amazing."

"Both of these affixes are quite good."

Although the divine blessing affix didn't appear this time,

the "Aid Battle" and "Swift Foot" affixes are both excellent,

and can provide significant help.

Hearing the word "affix," Luo Yushang walked over curiously,

and picked up the crystal.

Swift Foot didn't surprise Luo Yushang,

but upon seeing the Aid Battle affix,

Luo Yushang fell into contemplation.

A few seconds later,

Luo Yushang seemed to realize something,

and said hesitantly,

"Tell me, if everyone chooses Lin Yuan for Aid Battle, wouldn't they not need to lift a finger? Lin Yuan alone could sweep through the Dungeon."

As soon as she said this, Lin Yandong felt as though he had been enlightened,

and he suddenly understood.

"That's right!"

"How could I forget Brother Lin?"

"Brother Lin is also a member of the pioneering team."

"I'm going back to the association right now to organize people to test it out."

Lin Yandong greeted them and rushed off in a hurry.

He had to test it as soon as possible.

If it was truly as Luo Yushang said,

clearing the Swarm Nest Dungeon would be effortless.

Lin Yuan was actually quite curious about what would happen if someone chose him for Aid Battle.

Would it be based on the stats he had just used in the Dungeon,

or the normal stats of a Summoner?

If it was the latter, it would be terrible.

If it was the former, the Professionals of Tianfeng City would definitely strike it rich.

They could vote for Lin Yuan for Aid Battle at the start and just follow behind, shouting "666" the whole way.

"General Meng, now that the Swarm Nest has disappeared, you must have a lot of things to deal with, so we won't bother you any longer."

Luo Yushang nodded toward Meng Zhan. "I'll take Lin Yuan and leave first."

Meng Zhan extended his right hand. "Don't rush off yet."

"I have something for Brother Lin."

Meng Zhan strode up to Lin Yuan and pulled out a red box from behind his back.

He opened the box, revealing a sword-shaped medal,

engraved with the words "Demon Suppression."

"This is the Demon Suppression Army's Third-Rank Military Merit Medal, thanking you for solving a troublesome issue for the Demon Suppression Army."

"And thank you for the contributions you've made to Tianfeng City."

Meng Zhan pushed the item forward.

"By holding this medal, as long as you are within the borders of Xia Kingdom, you can receive assistance from the Demon Suppression Army if you encounter any trouble."

"You can also use merit points to exchange for equipment and Skill Books that are unavailable on the market."

Lin Yuan reached out and took the medal.

"So, does that make me an external member of the Demon Suppression Army?"

"Are there any obligations I need to fulfill?"

"None," Meng Zhan shook his head. "As long as you don't do anything harmful to Xia Kingdom, you will get the green light wherever you go."

Being able to enjoy benefits without having to fulfill duties—wasn't this exactly what Lin Yuan had always dreamed of?

"I accept the medal."

"Hahaha, excellent." Meng Zhan laughed heartily.

"Once I finish my work, let's grab a drink another day."

"I want to test your capacity for alcohol."

"Test my capacity?" Lin Yuan raised his head. "I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk."

After leaving the Swarm Nest Fortress, Lin Yuan returned directly to the Villa.

Meanwhile,

Luo Yushang took a call.

After hanging up, her expression immediately cooled significantly.

"People from the Dark Knight Guild have appeared in Tianfeng City."

"This time, their target isn't just President Mu, it's also you."

"Me?" Lin Yuan pointed to himself and asked, "Why me?"

Luo Yushang walked over to the platform where she usually meditated,

and sat down.

"Because the commotion you've caused lately is too great."

"The Dark Knight Guild is worried you'll become the next Mu Tianxing, so they want to nip you in the bud before you fully mature."

"That doesn't sound right," Lin Yuan pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Normally, shouldn't they approach me first, try to tempt me, and then, if I refuse, get angry and kill me?"

"Would you be tempted, then?" Luo Yushang glanced at Lin Yuan.

"That depends," Lin Yuan counted on his fingers.

"If they gave me a set of Epic equipment and a few SSS-Rank Skills, I think I'd join."

"But let me state beforehand, I'd only be an undercover agent."

"Like a vampire, I'd suck them dry and then wipe them out."

"Do you think they are all idiots?" Luo Yushang was speechless.

"Based on the conditions you just listed, let alone you, I would join too."

"A whole set of Epic equipment? I only have one piece of Epic equipment on my entire body."

Lin Yuan froze.

"Is Epic equipment that rare? A Li and the other two each have one."

Luo Yushang took a deep breath and changed the subject.

"My strongest skill is the SS-Rank Skill Blooming Cold Shadow."

"I have seen an SSS-Rank Skill once."

"That was when you opened the Naga Empress from the card last time."

"Even I don't possess an SSS-Rank Skill, and it's even less likely that the scum in the Dark Knight Guild have one."

"Expecting them to use an SSS-Rank Skill to bribe you is nothing short of wishful thinking."

"So they're a poor guild then," Lin Yuan immediately lost interest.

"Although they are poor, they still have many capable individuals."

Luo Yushang was worried Lin Yuan would suffer due to arrogance.

"The Dark Knight Guild has four Level 60 trump cards."

"Joker, Iceman, Monster, and their leader, the Dark Knight."

"With my strength, dealing with any one of them besides the Dark Knight is not a problem."

"But if all four of them move out, and President Mu and I are tied up, you wouldn't be able to resist if they came after you."

Lin Yuan crossed his legs.

"Haven't you already made arrangements?"

"I don't think something like that should happen."

If they were deliberately luring the snake out of its hole, yet still allowed the opponent to send their trump cards to kill him, that would be too foolish.

If that happened, Lin Yuan would seriously consider switching guilds.

Luo Yushang nodded. "Other members of the Peerless Guild have secretly arrived in Tianfeng City, so the situation where their trump cards move against you, as I mentioned, naturally won't happen."

"But caution prevents mistakes."

"Keep this safe."

Luo Yushang took out two green scrolls.

"These are Random Teleportation Scrolls. The teleportation range is about 100 kilometers."

"Use it if you encounter an irresistible danger."

"That's quite thoughtful," Lin Yuan chuckled and accepted the Random Teleportation Scrolls.

Taking this thing just meant letting it gather dust in his backpack.

Using it to escape?

Impossible.

Forget about them not sending a trump card;

even if a trump card came, Lin Yuan wouldn't fear them in the slightest.

With two Gates of the Undead open,

2,000 lives per second,

let them kill—

they wouldn't be able to exhaust him.

Back at the Villa, Lin Yuan took out his phone and started writing the guide.

To achieve a perfect clear, the most important thing was triggering the annihilation mode.

Lin Yuan specifically highlighted how to trigger the annihilation mode.

After sending the guide to Luo Yushang,

Lin Yuan opened the Tianfeng City Professional Forum to search for Level 20 Dungeons that offered the most experience.
