Individualism.

No teamwork.

Ye Ci was reminded of her last life. She was always alone and she never accepted any friendship.

As a result, she was rejected by everyone.

Even if Steel-Blooded Battle Spear was not something she wanted, she felt that she had no right to be rebellious.

She could never forget what the Glory Corporation said to her. "Fate is not about an individual. Only with the help of your most trusted comrades can you stand at the top of the world."

She took in a deep breath. Since she had made her decisions, there were matters that she needed to attend to. She contacted Four Seas.

There was no story without coincidences.

Before she could contact Four Seas, she received a message from him.

"Gongzi, I'm so sorry. We might need to delay our appointment. I've received orders from my guild. We're going into the Chilly Wetlands tomorrow."

It was a beautiful coincidence, but it was bound to happen. Most of the players have reached lv10, and the Chilly Wetland dungeons were the ones first post-lv10 dungeon to be explored. Many guilds had made preparations for expeditions into the Chilly Wetland.

"It's okay, I was about to contact you as well. My guild had an expedition planned into the Cruel Pit 3 days later."

"What a coincidence. Which guild are you in?"

"Steel-Blooded Battle Spear."

"Ah, the guild that is quite famous lately." Four Seas was a veteran gamer, so he knew almost anything happening in the game. "You must be part of the main force!"

"I'm just a substitute."

If Ye Ci could see Four Sea's expression, she would be amazed. Four Seas was shocked beyond believe. He stood still with mouth agape.

"How strong Steel-Blooded Battle Spear really is? Even you are a substitute!" asked Four Seas.

Ye Ci did not answer directly. She did not know the guild's true strength, and she was never one to gossip. She hung up after talking briefly with Four Seas.

With her inconvenience settled, Ye Ci decided to make some preparations despite being a substitute.

No battles could be won without preparations.

In the following days, Ye Ci gathered a lot of fabric and sent them to Flutter n' Sway to be made into bandages. She then headed to the Forest of Stone.

The First Blood of Forest of Stone was already taken by a secretive organization called "Cain's Wrath", but this did not reduce Ye Ci's enthusiasm towards the dungeon.

Blue equipment was always inferior to Purple equipment. With Ye Ci's previous damage output based on Blue equipment, it was hard for her to clear the Forest of Stone. With the Venomous Scorpion equipment set and Ol' Three, however, she steamrolled the dungeon easily.

She couldn't help but let out a whistle after defeating the BOSS John.

Purple equipment's. With them, it was almost a massacre. Before having such equipment, Ye Ci could not clear Forest of Stone unharmed.

Ye Ci's eyes lit up after receiving book from the BOSS. It was a skill book.

Rapid Fire (level 1): Unleashes an Hunter's innate ability, each arrow fired will turn into four arrows. Required level: 12

Rapid Fire was one of the most important Hunter skill. A level 1 rapid fire can shoot 4 consecutive arrows. When it was maxed out at lv15, it can fire 20 arrows at one go. With critical hits, the damage dealt to a target would be enormous.
