Chapter 309: Name of the Guild

A hundred dollars was only equivalent to one gold coin; there was no way Lu Li wouldn’t be able to afford it given his current status .

Based on how much he cared about Lu Xin, he wouldn’t even hesitate to pay ten thousand dollars, let alone a small sum of one hundred dollars . As long as Lu Xin truly liked it, he didn’t mind at all .

He was only making a show because he enjoyed the admiration from his sister .

At the same time, Lu Xin enjoyed the look on her brother’s face, the look that told her he couldn’t turn down her request . When they were still poor, she wouldn’t even bring herself to ask for a piece of clothing that was only ten dollars .

Lu Li paid the money and Lu Xin put on her new stylish clothing that revealed a tiny bit of her white tummy . A head-piece, which had also been bought by Lu Li, rested on her forehead . There she stood – a fifteen-year-old girl that looked clean and cute, but exuded an innocent charm .

"Bro, I want Mooncakes!"

"Can you buy . . . "

"Bro, I want to buy a festive lantern!"

"Can you get me that . . . "

"Bro, look at that guy dancing over there! He’s so cool! There’s a big basket on his head too . "

"What part of him is cool? Don’t look at him . I wonder which race he’s from; he’s not even wearing a top . If it wasn’t for today’s celebration, I’d definitely kill him until he can’t play this game anymore . "

"You’re just jealous . There’s no way you’re not jealous . "

"Nonsense . You’re too young to even understand what the word ‘jealous’ means . I’ll take you to the shores; you haven’t seen the tides, right? They’re very beautiful . . . "

This was a personal time that belonged to the siblings . Lu Li blocked all the channels and even blocked his communicator .

Lu Xin felt like she had never been this happy before . She already had an inkling that her sickness was very severe and knew that a lot of money would be involved in the treatment . She didn’t want to be her brother’s burden, but from another perspective, Lu Li had earned a lot of money through this game .

From the bottom of her heart, she thanked and loved Dawn .

On the other hand, Lu Li knew that he had been neglecting her sister for too long, so he was trying his best to make it up to her .

The guild was in preparation and he was the actual leader, so there was a lot that he had to worry about .

"Where’s Lu Li?" Square Root 3 paced around anxiously in the temporary station of the guild .

"He blocked his messages . " Azure Sea Breeze was hammering the shield that he held onto . He had made up his mind to forge his own shield and not use the one that Lu Li had made for him . He simply had way too much time on his hands .

"Right . We should discuss the contract for club players with him . "

Square Root 3 gave Azure Sea Breeze a wishful look and hoped to receive an actual answer from him .

"Don’t look at me like that; I’m honestly not gay," Azure Sea Breeze teased . He always enjoyed annoying others .

"Gosh, what’s with these people?" Originally, Square Root 3 had a lot of respect for Azure Sea Breeze . After all, he was the legendary number one tank who had participated in every single one of Lu Li’s First Clears .

After he had actually come into contact with these people, he realized that things were far from his imagination .

Although Remnant Dream and Hachi Chan were both adorable, one was dorky and the other was simply dumb . It was pointless to expect any kind of constructive feedback from them .

When Square Root 3 asked about their opinion on the guild name, they batted their watery eyes and asked innocently if they could name the guild Pikachu .

Fly, Pikachu!

Square Root 3 was close to sending them flying too .

Sakura Memories returned to leveling up . She had made up her mind that she was going to reach the top of the Level Rankings and had no interest in anything else besides this .

Why was such a beautiful girl so dedicated to becoming a gaming master?

Sesame Rice Ball looked timid and seemed as if he was ready to give everything to prove his enthusiasm to Square Root 3 . Unfortunately, he was unable to provide any useful feedback . It seemed like he didn’t know much outside of gaming .

Lonesome Flower gave him a cool side-glance, before he dragged his sister out .

Moonlight went out to drink with his friends and clearly expressed before he left that Square Root 3 could make the decisions for the guild . If there was anyone that Square Root 3 didn’t like and wanted dead, he would gladly take up the task .

Wandering was fixated on his little mirror, enchanted by his own looks . Square Root 3 couldn’t work up the courage to disturb him .

Azure Sea Breeze seemed normal, but that was about it .

This guy was always glued together with Wandering and had even taken their share of the club together . Apparently, they also lived together in real life . He was a perfect fit for Square Root 3’s definition of a homosexual .

"Didn’t Lonesome Flower take March Rain to see the festive lantern? It’s probably the same for Lu Li . These people with sisters . . . Big three, do you have any sisters?" Azure Sea Breeze was rather envious .

Lu Li addressed Square Root 3 as ‘third brother’, so Sesame Rice Ball and the others also did the same .

However, Wandering and Azure Sea Breeze felt like this wasn’t friendly enough, so just like Moonlight, they called him big three . This seemed more brotherly to them .

Square Root 3 didn’t get angry . Richy Rich used to call him big three as well, however, he did so with a demanding tone . On the other hand, these two honestly treated him as one of them .

"I don’t have a sister," Square Root 3 said as his expression darkened .

"That’s a shame . If only I had a sister too…" Azure Sea Breeze’s mind wasn’t on the club contract at all . Every time something like this happened, he always wished that he had a sister to look after too .

"Where can I find Lu Li?" Square Root 3 asked weakly . He wasn’t very hopeful of receiving a response .

"Don’t bother . There’s no use even if you find him," Azure Sea Breeze replied as he gave him a sympathetic look . "Big three, you should just decide this on your own . As for the ground rules, just make sure the deal is good . After all, we’re the ones getting paid anyway . Lu Li wouldn’t care about it . If you really want someone to discuss this with, you should talk to that self-obsessed guy instead . "

"What did you guys say about me?" Wandering walked over .

"Let’s talk about the club contract . " Square Root 3 could only place his hopes in this beautiful guy who seemed very unreliable .

What were the chances of a guy who looked like this being reliable at all?

Surprisingly, when serious business was involved, it was actually Wandering who was the most reliable . He nodded his head and said, "This is something that needs to be considered indeed . What plans do you currently have in mind?"

Club members had to sign contracts, but for the average members, it wouldn’t be so strict . However, the main team members and celebrity players would have more rules to follow .

For example, Sesame Rice Ball was a main team member for PVP and could also be counted as an outer member of the club . After he signed the club contract, he would be able to receive a fairly decent salary .

Of course, if he breached the contract, he would also take more responsibility . Just the compensation fee alone would be quite a sum .

The contract for celebrity players would include even more rules . It would stress the contract date, the authority and responsibility between both parties, and would also include the profit shares and rewards .

Most importantly, because they had received such high treatment, they would also be required to pay more compensation if they breached the contract .

In poaching a celebrity player from another club, the compensation fee alone would start from millions of dollars . During the current season, Hot Twitch had switched from Peacetime Dynasty to Brotherhood club, which costed 2 . 6 million dollars . There was also another signing bonus on top of this; it was truly a huge sum .

In order for Brotherhood to steal an expert, they had spent about a year’s worth of their profits .

This was how the clubs were managed at the moment . They did their best to create celebrity players and made them valuable . In order to not let their investments go to waste, a huge sum of compensation was a necessity .

Wandering also understood this . After some discussion, they quickly reached a conclusion .

"Shouldn’t we discuss this with Lu Li too?" Square Root 3 didn’t think that this was the right thing to do . He didn’t feel like he had enough authority to do this .

"It doesn’t really matter," Wandering said carelessly . "He wouldn’t really mind . Instead of participating in guild management, he would much rather do dungeons or go on all kinds of adventures in the game . As long as there are no problems with the overall direction, you’re free to make your own decisions . "
