Chapter 28: Private Message

The Demon Wolf King, in the Demon Wolf Valley of Novice Village 00520, was lying on its own territory with eyes barely open, bathing under the sunlight.

Suddenly, it opened its eyes and asked through the voice transmission of the contract, "Misty River, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, come to Demon Bone City and do something for me."

"Okay, summon me!"

After all, the Demon Wolf King promised Jiang Ming to do three things for him, so it did not refuse.

After the Demon Wolf King agreed, Jiang Ming, who was far in Demon Bone City, began to chant a spell. The next moment, a ray of light flashed in front of him, and the Demon Wolf King appeared before him.

The Demon Wolf King who appeared in Demon Bone City looked around curiously. "Is this the Demon Bone City you told me about?"

"Yes, it is indeed Demon Bone City." Jiang Ming looked at the Demon Wolf King with a smile at the corners of his lips and nodded.

"The demon aura is very strong here, it seems like a good place to cultivate." The Demon Wolf King took a deep breath and said, "So why did you ask me to come?"

Jiang Ming opened the map and showed it to the Demon Wolf King. Then he pointed to the Demon Cliff in the Death Forest and said, "I need you to send me to this place. This is the first thing I want from you."

The Demon Wolf King took a close look at the map and nodded. "Okay."

Seeing that the Demon Wolf King agreed, Jiang Ming jumped on its back. Hoisting Jiang Ming onto its back, the Demon Wolf King suddenly sprang from its original position and rushed toward the outskirts of Demon Bone City.

　　...

In a clinic within the slum area of ​​City H, a bespectacled, handsome doctor in a white coat asked a middle-aged man with moustache and three men bandaged like mummies lying on hospital beds beside him in a monotone. "Whose subordinates are you? Why are you beaten up like this?"

"We are Brother Yang's underlings. We were beaten by a young brat. Not sure why he was so powerful, he managed to knock me down with just one punch. And his attack was so malicious. Don't let me see him again. Or I'll destroy him, f*ck!" The blue-haired man lying in the hospital bed cursed angrily.

The handsome doctor sneered in response. "Do you want to end up like this again? If he didn't control himself, you would have already been in hell. Such a master appearing in City H. I advise you not to provoke him. Report this to your leader immediately, or you may wait to follow in the footsteps of the Malignant Tiger Gang."

"Doctor Gui Tu, what do you mean?" asked the blue-haired man resentfully.

"I'm saying that if you provoke him one more time, you will die!" Gui Tu glanced at him coldly. He turned around and left the ward. He returned to his own cabin and lay down on the bed. Touching the pendant watch on his chest, he entered the game.

　　...

Outside Demon Bone City, a giant demon wolf was carrying a player on its back, dashing to the front quickly.

Jiang Ming, who was hoisted on the Demon Wolf King's back, had nothing to do, so he opened the chat channel to see if there was anything new in the public chat.

But after he opened the chat channel, his private chat kept flashing. Unable to contain his curiosity any longer, he clicked open the private chat to check it out.

Once he opened it, he saw thousands of private messages flooding in.

Most of them were consulting him about how he managed to upgrade so quickly, some were worshipping him, and some were asking him to accept them as his underlings. He filtered all these private messages, leaving only four private messages that interested him.

The first one was sent to him by Mu Baitang, the leader of the TK Guild: 'Brother, you level up very quickly, congratulations. Do you have any equipment in your hands? You must have gone to the main city now, remember to leave the equipment to me, I will buy it at a high price!'

The second was from Jin Tian, the leader of the Prosperous Dynasty Guild: 'You should be the NPC in the Demon Wolf Valley. Although I'm not sure why your attack is so high, I'm sure that you are the one who slaughtered so many players in the Demon Wolf Valley. You are not an NPC, but a player!'

'As for why you level up so fast, I guess it's because you used a special way to become a player of the demon faction in advance. That is what allows you to gain high experience points when killing players, so your level can rise so fast.'

'Don't worry, I won't reveal it to others. If you are interested, you can join Prosperous Dynasty. Prosperous Dynasty will give you 50,000 yuan every month as your salary. I hope you consider it.'

The third was from Situ Shenzhe, the leader of the Divine Altar Guild: 'Misty River, right? You are good. Come to my guild, we'll pay 100,000 yuan a month. Think about it!'

The fourth was from a female player named Snow Dust: 'Thank you for saving me, and thank you for not killing me in the Demon Wolf Valley. Congratulations on your promotion to level 10. Cheers!'

These four private messages all came from players he had personally contacted.

What surprised him most was the second private message sent by Jin Tian from the Prosperous Dynasty. He didn't expect Jin Tian to guess his identity, and all his guesses were basically correct.

"As expected from Jin Tian, ​​the wise president of the Prosperous Dynasty, he actually guessed my identity," Jiang Ming muttered in astonishment.

He didn't know Jin Tian of the Prosperous Dynasty well. After all, they didn't encounter each other much previously in competitive games, and they didn't communicate either. He only heard that Jin Tian was intelligent as a leader and knew how to choose the right person for the right job.

At finals of 'Glory', if it wasn't that the kingpin of Prosperous Dynasty suddenly decided not to play, their guild might have squeezed into the top three of guild rankings.

As for the high-paying invitation by the Prosperous Dynasty in the private message, he was very excited, but when he thought of his experience and how he ended in the previous guild, he still chose to give up.

Compared to the private message sent by the Prosperous Dynasty, the private chat sent by Situ Shenzhe was much more arrogant and direct in inviting him. And the salary offered was 100,000 yuan. With the influence of Divine Altar, if it were any other player, they would already have joined.

However, he and Situ Shenzhe had a lot of grudges, so naturally he would never agree to join the Divine Altar Guild. Instead, he would do everything he could to destroy the Divine Altar Guild and avenge them for maiming his hands three years ago!

"Situ Shenzhe, wait for me. Let's settle our grudges bit by bit." Jiang Ming clenched his fists, his eyes exuding icy coldness.

The Demon Wolf King seemed to sense Jiang Ming's anger and it let out a low growl, awakening Jiang Ming.

After his emotions calmed down, Jiang Ming's eyes fell on the fourth private message.

Looking at the content of the message, he thought of a very beautiful girl whom he rescued at the entrance of the mine and let go in the Demon Wolf Valley.

He didn't know why Snow Dust privately messaged him, but he still politely replied with two words "thank you".

As for the other three messages, he replied to them all. The reason why he replied to Situ Shenzhe was because a conspiracy against the Divine Altar was starting to brew in Jiang Ming's heart...

Ding~ Friendly reminder: Dear player, someone is looking for you in the real world, do you wish to log out of the game?

"Who is looking for me? Is it Chikage who's calling me?"

A little confused, Jiang Ming logged out of the game and his thoughts returned to reality.

Although he went offline, the Demon Wolf King was still running. That was because the next time he went online, he would appear on the back of the Demon Wolf King again. By doing so, time would not be wasted. This was another feature in the game.
