In the garlic-shaped conference hall with three huge baobab trees, there were already a large number of players coming.

The five o'clock clock rang, and Zmulft's clock was something that cut out the tongue and pillars from the trunk of the huge baobab tree.

Zhuoyue and Asuna listened to the sad melody that declared the arrival of dusk, and sat down in the corner as usual. When Tilberu and King of Tooth and Linde appeared on the forum set up on the stage, they watched the players around them applaud together.

Immediately, Lin De stood up and began to say that some of the blue and green groups, who have been the main force of the strategy group so far, finally became the official guild report.

Leading another group, Tilbellu and Tooth King, who were leading the Liberation Team of Iron Grandet, were also on the stage, but were sitting on the chair. The Tooth King picked up his arms and crossed his legs to keep silent. Tilbellu looked at the players gathered in the audience without saying a word.

At this moment, Linde, the leader of the Dragon Knights, said something completely unexpected.

"When recruiting guild members, we intend to lower the threshold as much as possible. The current joining conditions are to reach level 10, that's all."

"We are level 9!" The King of Teeth suddenly stood up, shouted this and sat down again.

The other leader, Tilbellu, just sat quietly aside and smiled without saying a word.

‘Have you started to act as a behind-the-scenes person? Tilberu, I have to say that you are really scheming.’

Zhuoyue ignored the two clown characters on the stage who were fighting each other, but instead squinted his eyes slightly at the other person, revealing a hint of fun in his eyes.

Lin De, the other side, suddenly rose blue veins on his forehead because of what the King of Tooth said, but immediately calmed down.

"All those who have attended this meeting and have not joined any party should meet that condition. Therefore, as long as we raise our hands, we will be honored to welcome you. However, there is only one that needs to be supplemented with specific people. This is the decision I discussed with Mr. Yawang."

"We also understand very well that this is a very unreasonable request."

Lin De, the first leader of the Dragon Knights Guild, said solemnly at the temporary rush forum.

"However, I would like to ask you to understand one thing. Now that top players are divided into two groups like this, we must maintain the friendly relationship between the two guilds for a long time and assist each other in the process of the strategy."

Linde's words were not spoken to the others in the audience. What this guy's sharp gaze was someone who seemed very special even among the few strategy players who did not belong to the Dragon Knights or Iron Grandet Liberation Team.

"Mr. Excellent, Miss Asuna."

Zhuoyue was not too surprised when he heard Linde talk about his name. He had already expected such a thing.

Asuna, who was deeply wearing a hood on the side, her shoulders twitched, and at this moment her expression was not even clear about Zhuoyue sitting next to her.

‘After all, these two people are just chess pieces of Tilbellu. This is the one who really put forward such an idea.’

"And there are Mr. Kirito and Miss Kiriko."

However, Linde turned his gaze to the left at that time and shouted out the names of the other two players.

This made Zhuoyue's eyes flash, "Are they here too? However, logically speaking, because I was fucking him, Kirito should not be called the cheater as everyone knows, like the original work, right? It seems that Tilbellu is still worried about this Kirito who snatched the LA very bug during the closure beta."

After examining Zhuoyue and Asuna who had been silent at the beginning, they looked to the other side, probably looking at Kirito and Kiriko.

Lin Deqing coughed and said, "In addition to your level, there is a separate condition for joining the guild. That is, you four will join the Dragon Knights and the Iron Grand Liberation Team respectively."

Hearing this sentence, Zhuoyue couldn't help but look at the other side Lin De looked at, and he really saw two familiar figures, two brothers and sisters who were also covered in black.

In addition, we can also see them looking at Zhuoyue's side and waved their hands politely, saying hello.

Zhuoyue also nodded in response, and Lin De, who had cleared his cough loudly again, quickly made a supplement.

"It can be seen at a glance from yesterday's boss strategy battle that the strength of Mr. Kirito and Miss Kiriko is particularly outstanding even among the top player groups such as us. After all, you have obtained all the LA rewards of the three bosses. Of course, I am not blaming you for this. However, considering the future situation, I do not want you to join the same guild together. Because that will create an excessive gap in the combat power of the two guilds, which can be said to be equal at present."

‘What a ridiculous group of people.’ Zhuoyue shook his head helplessly, but there was a sneer on his lips.

"As for Mr. Zhuo and Miss Asuna..."

The tooth king, who had been silent all the time, suddenly stood up, "You and five other players, together with only seven of them, have guided the feat of the first level of BOSS. Now everyone knows, although they don't know where the other five players are at the moment."

After a pause, the player with a wonderful hairstyle with a cactus stretched out a hand and pointed at Zhuoyue and Asuna, and said again: "But the seven of you divided the experience of the boss on the same floor. Not to mention how strong your combat power is, your level may be ahead of most of the players here now. So for the sake of the equality of the combat power of the two guilds, please join the two guilds separately."

He looked at the teeth and Linde coldly, and Zhuoyue turned his attention to Tilbellu, after all, this person was the owner of the two dogs.

"I have to say, Tilbellu, your abacus is pretty good, but for me, the jumping clown is always the jumping clown. It would be too arrogant to use these two idiots to provoke me, right? Is it too much power that makes your IQ begin to decline?"

He stood up and looked at Tilberu, who had been sitting with a slight look.

The man named Tilbellu hid the fact that he was the original betavern while leading the two sides of the strategy group to cover up the back of his heart.

Although it is an errand like a tightrope walking no matter when he is discovered or questioned by everyone, he becomes strong and attracts people's hearts.

As a result, he recruited many high-level players on the first level and formed the current strategy group.

It can be said that most of the players in the strategy group here are his people, and even Linde, the leader of the Dragon Knights, is no exception.

Linde dyed his hair blue like Tilberu, equipped with silver armor, and directed the blue group. The reason why he chose this path was because he respected Tilberu.

Zhuoyue was recognized, and Linde appeared at the first-level strategy meeting held by Tilberu before.

"You bastard, what did you say!"

Hearing Zhuoyue saying something insulting Tilbellu, the two dogs on the stage roared wildly as if they were protecting their own owners.

And the players from the two guilds below also looked at the excellence with hostility.

The atmosphere at this moment seemed a little tense, and it seemed that Zhuoyue had become the target of public criticism, but Zhuoyue didn't care.

"Do you think I'll be in the same guild with a bunch of idiots? Besides, I never expected you."

"Don't be too arrogant. Don't think that this is in the circle, and the people here will let you go!"

The King of Teeth was like a mad dog with his teeth bared, always revealing his thoughts of wanting to bite Zhuoyue to death.

"It seems that the lesson I taught you last time was not enough, the cactus head." Zhuoyue's mouth pulled a strange curve, as if he was mocking the person who was talking to him.

It was probably because he was provoked by what Zhuoyue called the "cactus head". This time, blue veins appeared on the forehead of the tooth king.

But Zhuoyue looked at him as if he was not concerned about himself, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

Then, after looking at the side, Zhuoyue found that Asuna was keeping her hands and feet neatly closed.

Although the side face that I peeked through the gap in the hood was very calm, she could tell that she was in a very bad mood.

Because deep in Asuna's thin pupils, a swaying blue-white flame ignited.

"What's wrong?"

He asked with some concern that Zhuoyue would not think that he had angered Asuna. He should have been angered by the very excessive request from the East King.

In the final analysis, Linde and Yawang proposed the condition for Zhuoyue and Asuna, that if they want to join the guild, the two should separate.

However, after all, the premise of "what you want to join" is no longer valid, because no matter which guild it is here, Zhuoyue has no intention of joining at all.

Not only should Linde and the King of Tooth should know this, but Tilbellu, as their master, should also be very clear. Moreover, for the King of Tooth, when Zhuoyue was on the first floor, he gave him a strong warning. I guess he didn't want Zhuoyue to enter.

"It's nothing, excellence, just let it go, don't pay too much attention to my feelings."

Maybe because of his anger, Asuna called out the full name of Zhuoyue and even forgot to use the honorific words.

"Oh—" Nodded, Zhuoyue looked at the stage again.

"You don't plan to have something to do with the guild, I can understand it this way, Mr. Zhuo?" Tilberu, whose eyes became sharper, finally spoke at this moment.
