The gradually transparent Tilberu seemed to freeze again as if time had reversed. He had entered a state of death residue, but the system forcibly transformed him into a severely injured state. Even the person in question was wide-eyed and stunned, not knowing what had happened.

Argo waited with her eyes closed for a long time, but the sound of a figure dying and shattering never came. She quietly opened her eyes, glanced at them, and then fell silent.

Tilberu struggled to touch his body, feeling the real feedback coming from it, and grinned. Then he immediately covered his face, and despite his efforts to hold back, tears still streamed down his face.

"This is……"

"He's incredibly lucky; he probably only has a few drops of blood left to survive. Argo, hurry and pray to the gods! His luck is phenomenal!"

Argo's face lit up with ecstasy, and she instinctively reached out to slap Tilberu to celebrate. Momo quickly grabbed her hand and said, "Hey, he only has a few drops of blood left. What if you slap him to death?"

Argo's smile froze instantly. At this moment, Tilberu also reacted, took out a health potion, and began to restore his health.

The boss's hatred towards him was cleared after his death, and he instantly recovered 0.5% of his health. Although it was still only a few dozen drops of health, it was enough to make Tilberu breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the amount of health was no longer a frightening 1 drop.

"You deliberately used a single drop of blood to scare him?"

Faced with Reimu Hakurei's questioning, Momo shrugged and said, "Anyway, the effect is the same. I'm just testing whether it works or not."

As Tilberu recovered, cheers erupted behind them, mixed with the excited cries of several people. It seemed that the troublemaking kobold lord Ivan had finally been killed.

Argo tried to stand up and turn around to check the situation, but suddenly found that Momo was holding her waist and her hand was being held tightly by Momo.

Argo blushed instantly, and a wave of panic washed over him: Damn it, how come I didn't notice anything just now!

Thinking of this, Argo, feeling ashamed and angry, used his unique skill of kicking Momo's knee with his toe, instantly knocking him to the ground. Then he jumped up as if nothing had happened, with only the slight blush on his face proving what had just happened.

"Mo Mo, are you alright?"

Asuna and Kirito ran over at that moment, looking at Momo lying on the ground with question marks all over their heads. Meanwhile, Argo looked up at the sky, seemingly very interested in the patterns on the ceiling, as if there were some great secret there.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. I was just too relaxed. Compared to over there, what was the result?"

"See for yourself, that guy Ya Wang is lucky this time."

Kirito smiled wryly and pointed behind him. Mo Mo turned around and looked at Ya Wang, who was surrounded by the crowd, with a strange expression on his face.

Fang Wang has already donned the Boss's special drop, the pitch-black midnight coat.

Black Swordsman Fang King?

What the hell is this?!

Guild Established (053)

After asking Asuna and Kirito, Momo finally understood what had happened.

Just now, it was a complete melee. The kobold lord Ivan, with only a sliver of health left, jumped down towards the crowd. The players, their ferocity unleashed, used their sword skills to kill him head-on. Several players, including the Tooth King, charged towards the Boss.

Poor kobold lord Ivan, though he smashed a group of people away again, was ultimately killed by the players who fought back with blood. As for who got the right to kill last, it was Fang Wang.

Although it's a bit unbelievable, in that chaotic situation at the end, who got the special drop was entirely a matter of chance.

Kirito was a step too slow, and Asuna, not wanting to steal the equipment, didn't make a move. Naturally, the fastest were the group of players wielding one-handed swords.

Tooth King became the lucky one, which initially surprised all the players, but soon everyone gathered around him to celebrate.

Although what Ya Wang did before wasn't exactly honorable, it was a minor matter. To put it bluntly, it was immoral and unsuccessful. Ya Wang's current good fortune has made everyone temporarily forget about that.

"Oh my, this is really interesting, so interesting!"

Mo Mo pinched his chin, clutched his stomach, and laughed loudly. Few people around him knew what Mo Mo was laughing about, and they all looked at him as if he were crazy.

Well, Mo Mo didn't explain it to everyone. This whole thing was completely unexpected for Mo Mo, and he treated this comical, unexpected event as nothing more than a joke.

"Black Swordsman Fang, haha! Kirito-kun, this isn't my fault, it's just your misfortune!"

Kirito pointed to his nose, his head full of question marks.

Mo Mo's laughter was loud enough to be heard by Ya Wang, who was surrounded by the crowd. The players who were celebrating were all taken aback, looking at Mo Mo and then at Ya Wang.

Ya Wang's eyelids twitched, and he walked expressionlessly through the crowd toward Mo Mo.

Seeing the expression on Ya Wang's face, Mo Mo's face suddenly showed a hint of surprise, which turned into a hint of understanding, and what remained was amusement.

Kirito instinctively reached for the sword hilt. Momo sat up and shook his head, saying, "Don't worry, Kirito, it's alright."

The King of Fangs walked over and looked at Tilberu first. He was slightly surprised to see that Tilberu was unharmed, and asked in a muffled voice, "Are you alright, Tilberu?"

At this moment, Tilberu's health had returned to yellow, and he was out of serious injury. He stood up, leaning against the wall, and said with a straight face, "Luckily, I didn't die."

Ya Wang nodded. His relationship with Tilberu was destined to be irreconcilable. Although it wasn't explicitly stated, the two were practically mortal enemies.

At that moment, Ya Wang suddenly made a surprising move.

He stopped in front of Momo, then bent his knees and knelt down in a standard dogeza (a traditional Japanese kowtow), saying, "Momo-kun, today's battle has made me realize how despicable my previous behavior was!"

"Now I understand that only by working together can we defeat these monsters and clear the game. If it weren't for you guys, the game wouldn't have gone so smoothly, Tilberu would have died, and we might have suffered even more losses."

"I, Ya Wang, sincerely apologize to Mo Mojun, and on behalf of everyone, thank you!"

After saying this, Ya Wang touched his head to the ground, and the entire place fell silent.

A cold laugh came at an inopportune moment; it was from Tilberu.

"You don't need to thank me for my share. I'm the one who should thank Mo Mojun. As for everyone else, you don't need to thank them either; that's their gratitude."

Some people may not understand what the King of Teeth is doing, but Tilberu does, and he believes that Momo does too.

This lucky windfall instantly changed Ya Wang's mindset. If Ya Wang used to be a petty commoner chasing after trivial interests, he suddenly realized that he could gain greater benefits by pretending to be a kind and righteous leader.

In short, the King of Fangs suddenly realized something and decided not to be human anymore... cough cough, he's not going to be the King of Fangs he used to be; he's going to learn from the old Tilberu!

Tilberu's reputation and prestige have plummeted, presenting a perfect opportunity and a window of opportunity!

However, only a few people could see this. Apart from a few players who looked at the King of Fangs with even more disgust, most people showed surprise and admiration in their eyes.

"Don't mention it!"

Mo Mo seemed moved. He stood up, helped Ya Wang up with both hands, and smiled kindly, saying, "It was just a small matter before. This time, Ya Wang, you have grown into a qualified warrior and leader. So, Ya Wang, let's cheer each other on, cheer on all the players, and lead them out of this death game!"

Tooth King's eyelids twitched wildly, and his mouth gaped open.

This was clearly a method I, Ya Wang, used to boost my reputation and popularity, so why am I suddenly going to have to share half of it with you?

Shouldn't I be the one leading everyone?

Why am I now the same kind of leader as you?!

However, seeing Mo Mo's outstretched hand, Ya Wang, who lacked acting experience, really didn't know how to draw everyone's attention back from Mo Mo at this moment.

That's it!

If they stole it, they stole it!

"You're absolutely right, Mo Mojun!"

Ya Wang forced a smile, took Mo Mo's hand, stood up, and said, "That's right, I will definitely continue to work hard!"

Let's end this topic quickly!

This is the only hope for the King of Fangs now.

"Disgusting," Argo whispered in Asuna's ear.

"Ugh, that's disgusting," Asuna replied with a laugh.

The two girls, able to see Ya-oh's expression up close, naturally understood what he meant. Only Kirito looked around blankly, puzzled. He wondered why everyone looked like they'd just eaten a bug when Ya-oh had suddenly recovered.

The first floor walkthrough is now complete, and without a doubt, this is news that will cause an uproar throughout Aincrad.

It turns out that even a death game where no one can die can be solved, and with sufficient preparation, it is possible to complete the game without any deaths!

Everyone subconsciously kept Tilberu's near death a secret. Firstly, it would diminish the publicity effect, and secondly, it was to save face for Tilberu, since he had performed quite well in his previous command.

In this way, in the eyes of players who did not participate in the strategy, there are two heroes who contributed to the first floor: one is the calm and collected Tilberu, and the other is the Fang King who killed the boss.

As for the details, no one deliberately spread them, since that would be suspected of spreading rumors and gossiping behind people's backs.

However, in reality, only a few people in the strategy team were willing to follow Tilberu. The remaining ten or so people chose to follow Fang Wang. They believed that Fang Wang was genuinely repentant and believed in the lucky aura surrounding him.

The successful completion of the first floor triggered a frenzy of players leaving the Starting Street. This time, however, Momo didn't let these players roam freely. Instead, he had Tilberu gather a group of players, foregoing several days of leveling up, to give the newbies a live demonstration of combat outside the Starting Street.

As a result, Tilberu's reputation soared even higher, and Ya Wang, not to be outdone, sent people to do the same. Keen observers noticed that the two groups seemed to be vying for attention and recruiting members; was something about to happen?

Sure enough, a few days later, Tilberu announced that he would establish a union, which would be divided into two.

One is Rose Garden, which only accepts female players and aims to provide them with protection. The guild leader is Asuna, the strongest female player who is also quite famous among female players.

After all, Asuna and Argo were the only two female players to participate in the first floor raid. As examples of self-reliance, many female players were very interested in this guild.

Afterwards, the rat merchant Argo and the great blacksmith Lisbeth announced their joining the Rose Garden, which made the Rose Garden famous throughout the entire first floor, and more and more female players chose to join.

However, with fewer than 500 female players in the entire Aincrad, Rose Garden was destined to be a support-oriented guild, not a combat guild. Asuna and the others became even busier, as they needed to teach these girls, who were too afraid to leave the city, the most basic combat skills.

To hunt wild boar, you should at least know how to kill it, instead of getting chased by it and ending up in a "beauty and the wild boar" scenario.avi.

The second guild that Tilberu wants to establish is the Watcher Knights. The Knights only recruit players who have a certain level of strength and can stand on the front line of the raid. Even if they cannot enter the boss raiding group, they must at least be on the front line of the advance team.

Asuna was initially worried that no one would respond, but when Tilber announced that the Watchers Knights would form a strategic partnership with the Rose Garden, countless male players instantly became excited and rushed to the registration point.

Especially when Tilberu announced that the leader of the Watchers Knights was not actually him, but the unknown Momo, the number of people signing up actually increased.

Why?

Because Momo and Asuna are already a well-known couple!

Since the two presidents are in a romantic relationship, then the members...

Indeed, this is a strategic partnership!

The situation of too many monks and too little porridge resulted in an unprecedented frenzy, which made Tilberu, who suddenly realized that no one cared about him, feel sad. At the same time, it also made Ya Wang, who had also decided to hold an office meeting, furious but helpless.

He originally wanted to use the reputation of the Black Swordsman Fang Wang to compete with Momo and Tilberu, but Momo used the female player as a trump card, which instantly defeated Fang Wang.

Well, so be it if we lose. After all, not all experts agree with Momo's team composition. Many expert players have chosen the Fang King's guild, since Fang King himself is a legend for personally defeating bosses.

Moreover, Momo's Watcher Knights only recruits 500 people, just like the Rose Garden, with a limit of 500 people. This means that more people will inevitably flow to Fang Wang. Fang Wang thought of this and decided not to compete with Momo.

054 Upgraded Trading Powers

With Tilberu as his capable subordinate, Momo began to relax and become a hands-off manager. Since the contract granted him the power to make transactions, he didn't need to worry about Tilberu having any ulterior motives. Moreover, with nearly a century of management experience, he could tell at a glance whether Tilberu was truly committed to his work.

Momo was certain that Tilberu himself did not like the contract. After all, it was a contract he had reluctantly signed in order to survive. He accepted it rationally, but he felt uncomfortable psychologically.
