Net Game: All My Pet Beasts Are Goddesses

"Steel Guild, Jack Guild, Sloan Guild..." Jiang Bai murmured as he swept his gaze across these guilds.

Then his gaze landed on the guild masters. He asked, "Why do all of you seek an alliance with our Hidden Dragon Guild?"

The 12 masters answered without any hesitation, "It's because the Hidden Dragon Guild is number one!"

To them, cooperating with the strong was their top priority.

Moreover, many of them were professional gamers in the real world. They knew very well what it meant to be strong.

Once they became strong in the game, the status quo would shift because of them.

Jiang Bai said, "Since you've said so, I'll lay down the law first. After this, whatever you do cannot be associated with the Hidden Dragon Guild!"

"It's because this can't be considered as a partnership. After all, you're not qualified!"

"To put it simply, all of you will provide me with resources while I provide you information."

"If you don't agree to my terms, you can leave now!"

Jiang Bai stated his terms.

He wouldn't agree to the proposal of the Steel Guild and other guilds.

Seeking an alliance?

They truly weren't qualified!

At most, they would just exchange some benefits.

The guild masters looked at each other in dismay.

Then, with Jiang Bai's permission, they walked to the side and began to discuss this.

"Everyone, what do you think of this? Exchanging resources for information?"

"Is it worth it?"

"I think so! The reason why Maise the God could clear the Dragon's Lair must be related to the information he knows. Now that he is willing to share the information with us, we might be able to hit the lottery!"

"I've been speculating that there's a force backing Maise the God. Now that I think about it, it's indeed the case. Otherwise, how could he get so much information?"

They pondered for a long time and chatted for a while.

Then, they stood in front of Jiang Bai and answered firmly, "We agree to your terms. Getting the information will suffice."

As they spoke, they took out the items that they had previously displayed in their stalls, packed them up, and delivered them to Jiang Bai.

"Maise the God, consider these things as our gift to you! We will get information from you next time."

"As the first person to clear the Dragon's Lair Dungeon, you have left a deep impression on us. It's our honor to be able to exchange benefits with you!"

Jiang Bai saw the items and asked Ickes and Vivienne to put them away before throwing them into his backpack.

He wanted to exchange benefits with the guild masters in order to obtain contribution points. He also wanted to establish a large guild with a million members. Now, he could begin scouting suitable candidates as a form of advanced preparation.

"I won't take your things for free!"

He told them, "Tonight, remember not to rest in empty spaces or stay in your room."

After Jiang Bai finished speaking, he pointed at this area and told the people in front of him.

"We shall meet here once every three or five days unless there are extenuating circumstances."

"If you don't have any resources, then you won't be able to get information from me."

"Remember this: Anyone who divulges the information that I provide you with to a third party is my enemy."

The guild masters kept quiet upon hearing his warning. None of them dared to object. They silently nodded.

With the strength of Maise the God, as well as the large forces that might be backing him, they didn't dare to act behind his back.

"Yes, Maise the God!"

"I'll listen to everything you say!"

...

Not long after, the guild masters watched as Maise the God left this area. Then, the latter was surrounded by fog. They had no idea where the other party had gone.

Only then did they let out a sigh of relief.

One of them commented, "The pressure that Maise the God emits is really terrifying!"

"Why would anyone dare to besiege such an existence!"

"It's too strange. Maise the God is only level 20. How could he have such an imposing aura? It feels like his eyes are looking down on everything. To him, I am but an ant that he can completely disregard."

"Do you still remember what Maise the God said? He told us not to rest in empty spaces and not to stay in our rooms tonight. Should we bury ourselves in a hole? Or should we hide in a cave?"

"That's weird. Why would he say that?"

"There must have been a reason for him to have mentioned that. We'll know after tonight anyway. If something really happens, we'll have to prepare more resources next time!"

"We initially sought an alliance so that we could get the help of Maise the God. It's already a good thing that he is willing to provide us with information."

They chatted as they left the area.

Only then did they realize that once they stepped into the fog, they would not be able to find the entrance to the area just now.

"What?"

"Why can't we find the entrance?"

"How did Maise the God come here and how did he send us the coordinates?"

They stood outside the fog with looks of amazement.

Before this, they only had a shallow impression of Maise the God. Now, they felt that he was really powerful. There were so many secrets about him!

....

Soon, night arrived.

An announcement suddenly sounded.

[Ding! All players of the world of Sword and Magic, please pay attention!]

[Ding! All players of the world of Sword and Magic, please pay attention!]

[Ding! All players of the world of Sword and Magic, please pay attention!]

[Your appearance in the world of Sword and Magic has already disturbed the demonic beasts of all the major sectors. From tonight onwards, the demonic beasts will attack the towns and the players!]

[Please pay attention. The Midnight Invasions have officially begun!]

"Midnight Invasions?"

The players were all shocked.

If they remembered correctly, when the system announcement mentioned the guild training grounds, it mentioned midnight!

They had not paid any attention to this word before.

However, now, they realized that the word midnight was just as important as the guild training grounds.

"F*ck!"

"I'm still waiting to enter the guild training grounds to gain experience. Doesn't that mean that at midnight, we will be attacked by demonic beasts?"

"Oh my god! What level are those demonic beasts? They can't be more than 10 levels higher than us, right?"

"I'm shocked! If the demonic beasts attack me while I'm sleeping, won't I appear at the resurrection point the moment I log into the game?"

"I'm speechless. I was thinking of returning to the real world to rest for a bit, but now I can't even lie down for a while!"

"Now is not the time to think about going back to the real world for sleep! Think about this. We've been grinding hard in order to be ahead of others. In the end, if we're unlucky, we might end up back at the starting point overnight!"

"I feel like I can sleep for eight hours, but now with the Midnight Invasions, I can't even sleep well!"

"Hey, me too! Even if I don't care about the leveling speed, I don't want to appear at the resurrection point every time I log into the game!"

"To hell with sleeping! At the very least, I have to figure out the rules of the Midnight Invasions! We have to at least ensure that we can survive these few nights!"

Suddenly, the world channel was in an uproar.

The discussion about the Midnight Invasions swept through the entire world of Sword and Magic.

Right now, the guild masters revealed different expressions from everyone else.
