As Yi Tianchen stepped out of the room, Liu Yuhan, Mu Wanqing, Li Tielong, and Lin Yan were already seated at the dining table, waiting. He awkwardly apologized and quickly slipped into the bathroom, washing his hands at top speed before announcing the start of lunch.
During the meal, Yi Tianchen and Liu Yuhan exchanged some information while also discussing their upcoming actions, finalizing a detailed acceleration plan. At this moment, their biggest challenges were twofold: gathering reputation and securing startup funds for the Chamber.
Half an hour later, they returned to their rooms and logged back online…
Upon re-entering the game, Yi Tianchen found himself in a dense bush. The intricate branches formed a natural barrier that was nearly impossible to notice without careful observation. This was a precaution taken to avoid being ambushed by unscrupulous players upon logging in.
It was said that there were indeed players who took pleasure in waiting to kill others as they logged in. They would loiter around various areas, and if they spotted someone logging off, they would lie in wait, ready to strike when the unsuspecting player returned online.
First, he checked his friends list. The Terminator of Regrets and Not a Master had already returned to Southern Wilderness City. Proud Dragon had joined Mist of Time but was struggling to adapt to the guild's so-called rules and continued to live a solitary wandering life.
Most importantly, All-Knowing was silent at this time. Clearly, finding the boss was not an easy task. Despite All-Knowing's formidable information-gathering abilities, it wasn't always possible to acquire what one wanted; the odds were still largely based on luck, which left Yi Tianchen feeling somewhat speechless.
Without any boss information, he couldn't just sit idle. Yi Tianchen glanced around but saw no signs of life; not even the chirping of birds or rustling of beasts could be heard. Shimmering light filtered through the leaves, swaying gently with the mountain breeze.
He was currently at Ruinous Ridge, a necessary path leading to Southern Wilderness City. After finalizing everything with Proud Dragon before logging off, Yi Tianchen had chosen this spot to disconnect. Now that he was back online, he felt somewhat aimless.
Where should he go?
Opening the map revealed vast areas marked as blank spaces. This wasn’t a deliberate trick by the system; it indicated that these regions had yet to be developed and required fearless pioneers to conquer them.
To the east lay the edge connecting Lion Plains and Dawn Forest several dozen miles away; to the south were expansive forests that had already been developed; to the west stretched through Misty Forest leading to new territories; and northward lay a forest leading directly into a Restricted Area.
The Restricted Area was quite a peculiar zone that encompassed both "undeveloped" concepts and "danger warning" implications. It was a place filled with challenges and opportunities and was the only area on the entire Zero Era map marked as "Restricted Area."
To be honest, Yi Tianchen felt a surge of excitement about this prospect.
After a brief contemplation, Yi Tianchen raised his eyebrows, hoisting the heavy Dragon's Roar onto his shoulder, and without hesitation, he walked forward.

King's Studio.
Abandoning the construction of the Guild and focusing entirely on acquiring various materials that were still of little use, Zeng Jian was utterly baffled by what Mist of Time was up to.
"Come on, tell me, what exactly are they trying to pull here?"
Zeng Jian frowned, his expression twisting into a perplexed frown. He had always been curious about why Liu Yuhan dared to propose such a bet with him. Given the current situation, it seemed that she had been plotting this all along; his earlier sense of calm was now fleeting.
"Could it just be a smokescreen?"
King's Eternal pondered aloud, "Considering the previous encounters in Black Magic Forest and Dawn Forest, I believe they wouldn't fail to see our involvement. In other words, could their actions merely be a performance for my benefit?"
"The likelihood of that is quite low. Back in the days of King's Guild, I followed Liu Yuhan. Don’t let her gender fool you; her mind is exceptionally sharp, and she often comes up with unexpected ideas. We must not underestimate her; otherwise, we will surely face defeat."
Listening to Overlord Batyen's words, Zeng Jian felt a shiver run down his spine as he recalled their time together at King's Studio. He had to admit Liu Yuhan's capabilities, which confirmed his earlier thoughts.
Liu Yuhan must have had confidence to propose such a bet!
"Keep going!"
Zeng Jian raised his gaze, scanning the faces of King's Eternal and Invincible King before finally resting on Overlord Batyen. After a moment of contemplation, he said, "Among us, you are the only one who has worked with Liu Yuhan. Share your thoughts on this situation!"
Overlord Batyen nodded. "Today, I went to the market with a few brothers and happened to see Li Tielong purchasing a batch of rare iron ore for Forging Weapons. They are accepting all kinds of materials, which shows that they are genuinely preparing for material acquisition."
"Therefore, the earlier notion of 'putting on a show' is naturally debunked. However, what I want to say is that there is one crucial piece of information that we have overlooked."
"Overlooked?"
Wang Zhetianheng and Invincible King exchanged glances, both revealing a hint of displeasure. They had put considerable effort into dealing with Liu Yuhan, and Overlord Batyen's statement felt like a slap in their faces.
"What did we overlook?" Invincible King asked, his tone tinged with irritation.
Upon hearing this, Zeng Jian felt a jolt in his heart and began to ponder the implications of Overlord Batyen's words. As the President of a large Guild, Zeng Jian had considerable experience; success does not come without effort, and the achievements of Wang Zhetian were not to be dismissed.
It was precisely because of his extensive experience that Zeng Jian understood the discussion had reached a critical juncture. Overlord Batyen's so-called "overlook" might very well be the crux of the entire issue. If they could grasp this key point, victory would naturally follow.
"The difference between a Guild and a Chamber!"
Overlord Batyen's wording was very straightforward, and his tone was firm, indicating that he had given this answer considerable thought. However, upon hearing this, Zeng Jian and the others were left bewildered, with Invincible King expressing disdain after his initial confusion.
