"See that? You gave up on a good deal . Now the price has increased; 50 gold for one Azsharite Cystal," the Warrior player laughed coldly . He didn't think that Lu Li would be an important person, otherwise, he wouldn't be out here buying materials himself . He could just wave his hand and his minions would do it for him .
"What mercenary group are you from?" Lu Li asked, feeling troubled . This was the problem of keeping a low profile .
He was a Thief, and his class destined him to be low profile . As someone who had reincarnated, it was best for him to grow rich silently . His personality was also a part of the reason; the slums were always filled with dead people . Those who died first were always the ones who made a name for themselves .
"Polar Bear mercenary group!" the Warrior declared proudly .
"Never heard of you guys . "
Lu Li was being truthful; he hadn't heard of them in this life or his previous life . Either their mercenary group was too small, or they had upset someone of power and disappeared before Lu Li entered the game .
"Okay, let's fight one on one!"
The Warrior was confident . Lu Li was a Thief and his equipment didn't look too expensive, so he was certain that he would win .
"Sure, it's just a few steps anyway," Lu Li said as he packed away his store and walked out of the camp .

He had set his store near the edge of the camp, so it was only a few steps for him to the border of the safety zone . Players could battle freely in the wild and the sentries wouldn't even pay the slightest attention to them, unless it was a battle on a large scale that might threaten the campsite .
Following the standard procedure, Lu Li went into Stealth and disappeared before the Warrior . The Warrior positioned himself step-by-step, as if he was going to catch Lu Li with his superior Detection abilities .
If he had more time, he would have played around a little, but Lu Li was in a hurry to do his quest .
With a full rotation of skills, the Warrior died, despite his two attempts in trying to escape from Lu Li's crowd-control . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
Lu Li thought that he had solved his problem, now that he had shown that he wasn't an easy target .
"Alright, nice one . Let's wait and see . If anyone sells him Azsharite Crystals, then they're enemies to the thousands of us brothers from Polar Bear mercenary group . It won't just be the Azsharite Cystals; they won't even be able to step out their door anymore," the Warrior said spitefully . He was clearly hot tempered; he had only just run back from his revival point and was already threatening the public .
How were there so many idiots these days? Despite the game environment being different to real life, they couldn't go around thinking that they were invincible either .
Lu Li continued to set up his store as he contacted Square Root 3 .

A few minutes later, the boss of the Polar Bear mercenary group appeared before Lu Li, and the Warrior was still there threatening random players who sold Azsharite Crystals for a living .
"Shut up, will you!?" the boss roared as he ran over . He was tempted to shred the Warrior's mouth into pieces .
Although the boss often thought that the Warrior talked a little too much, who would have thought that he would cause such trouble someday? At the time, the boss was helping a rich boy level his account . They were a mercenary group of thousands of players and they took up any kind of work . Helping someone level was a common job .
The rich boy sat under a tree and had a pretty Priest girl keeping him company .
This was the difference in hierarchy . Even though they were all formed of the same flesh and blood, they were destined to be different from the moment they were born . They must have slipped and accidentally chosen the Nightmare mode dungeon when they reincarnated .
Fortunately, they came at the right time and Dawn allowed these mercenary group members to earn an income that would shock the average nine-to-five workers .
As they were casting spells on a group of monsters, the messenger device of the boss rang . He thought it was a customer, but to his surprise, it was the guild master of Ruling Sword, Square Root 3 .
The real owner of Ruling Sword was Lu Li . He was the one who called the shots for this major guild that didn't accept any investments . Some thought that Square Root 3 was just a sidekick, but even if he was, he was a sidekick for Ruling Sword . Their small mercenary group wouldn't ever have a chance to come across someone like this .
"Have your people leave Azsharite," Square Root 3 said simply . He didn't even add the boss as a friend .

Although his tone was calm and non-threatening, the boss of this Polar Bear mercenary group felt a little suffocated . He subconsciously knew that one of his own must have upset someone that they shouldn't have .
Or else, why would Ruling Sword give them a warning like this?
There were a few businesses running in Azsharite, so the only way they could upset someone was probably because of the Azsharite Crystals . The boss didn't dare delay; he ditched his client and rushed over himself .
If he didn't sort out the problem, it wouldn't be as simple as leaving Azsharite . The boss had seen many examples in the past where the hard work of many years by a mercenary group would go down the drain and become nothing, just because someone of great power instructed it so .
As such, he nearly passed out when he came over and heard the Warrior spouting rubbish .
The Warrior was stunned when he saw his boss come over and tell him to shut up, but he listened anyway .
The boss dragged the Warrior and whispered in his ear; they quickly figured out what had happened . He was smart enough to immediately drag the Warrior over to apologize to Lu Li .
Although the onlookers didn't know what was going on behind the scenes, they knew that something unexpected had happened .
The Warrior would have summoned a whole pack of people if he was to pick a fight, but this time, only one came, and it was their boss too .
When Lu Li saw the boss of the Polar Bear mercenary group, he knew that the situation had been resolved .
He felt a complex emotion rise within . In his previous life, he would probably still be trying to dig up Azsharite Crystals himself . There was a good chance that he would have to battle others, or just give up on the quest . Random players could just play the game, but it was too hard for them to try a make a name for themselves .
"This…" the boss trailed off and had a bitter expression as he approached .
"It's my people who can't keep their eyes open and caused you trouble . If it's possible, please forgive us . We'll hand over 20 Azsharite Crystals for free as compensation . "
"Sorry, I don't know what you're on about; I'm just here trying to purchase some crystals . Please don't disturb me," Lu Li said as he turned his head away .
"This is my brother's fault . How about I add some money on top and if you ever need anything, our entire mercenary group will do anything for you?" the boss offered . He was about to cry upon seeing that Lu Li didn't even budge .
"There's difficulty everywhere in all situations of life . Sometimes, we as mercenaries are a little cruel, but we still know where to draw the line…"
"You guys have difficulties, and the others don't? When I marked the price at 25 gold, none of them dared to sell me anything just because he threatened them all . Do you guys really have any difficulties?" Lu Li laughed coldly .
Controlling the market stock and price, these people seemed to have believed that this game was their backyard .
"And aren't you here to apologize? That guy beside you doesn't seem like he's here to apologize . To me, it seems like he's ready to have a go at me at any moment . "
