The Endless Plains, located in the central part of the West Continent, were once the ancient habitat of the Taurens.
However, with the rise of the Centaurs, all Tauren tribes were greatly affected.
Taurens are adept at running and hunting, with strong physiques, yet they were utterly suppressed by the Centaurs.
The Centaurs ran even faster and were better with bow and arrow. Whenever the Taurens ran into Centaurs, they couldn’t chase them down nor escape. It was incredibly frustrating.”
The war between the two races lasted for thousands of years. Eventually, the Tauren tribes collapsed and were forced to migrate to barren regions.
Later, the Chieftain and the Trolls came to the West Continent, just as the Taurens had fled. The three races joined forces, forming a formidable power.
Then came the war to fight back against the Centaurs. With the help from the Orcs and Trolls, the Centaurs were no match for the three races. They were driven back, and now, there are few Centaurs left on the entire Endless Plains.”
To prevent a counterattack from the Centaurs, the Two Plains Fortress was set up in the canyon that connects the Endless Plains to the Barren Plains. This place finally became a haven.
The Bent Corner Supply Station, one of the key supply stations for the Dark Camp, a crucial stronghold that connects the Two Plains Fortress, is also the starting point for the Taurens to reclaim the Endless Plains.
Although it is referred to as a supply station, it is actually a very large town that is heavily garrisoned.
“Big brother, didn’t we come here to farm and level up? Why are we here?” Daimeng Tongtong asked.
Li Yao, leading everyone while relying on his vague memories, said, “Well, we’re obviously here to get a mission.”
“What mission? So much trouble.” Guardian Angel was still longing for the fast leveling experience in the Sticky Hole.
“Dumb, of course it’s a guild mission,” Li Yao said helplessly. “Have you guys thought about it? How do you want to develop in the guild?”
Li Jie said, “You probably don’t have a guild manager who handles daily operations right now, right? I happen to have some free time, so I can temporarily take over. But I need you to find a suitable candidate to replace me as soon as possible. I want to join the core team for pioneering or to set up my own team later. If our strength is enough, joining a battle team is also fine. This is the contract proposal I drafted. Look at it, it’s pretty standard. I’ve already signed it, so you can grant me permissions once you sign.”
“Okay, great.” Li Yao was delighted as he had been worrying about guild management. With Li Jie’s help, things would definitely be more efficient. The contract terms typically involve a 1%-3% stake. This is a valid contract that provides magical benefits, ensuring both parties’ rights. Li Yao signed it immediately. He then promoted Li Jie to the position of vice president.
“Big brother, find a manager as soon as possible. My sister-in-law originally wanted to run a club, but she was tired of management and came to the game to relax,” Daimeng Tongtong said.
“So, Tongtong, what are your plans?” Li Yao asked.
“I plan to follow my sister-in-law’s advice,” Daimeng Tongtong said seriously.
“Little imp, don’t think I don’t know what’s going on in your mind. She probably feels the same way I do,” Li Jie said.
“I knew sister-in-law was the best,” Daimeng Tongtong’s eyes curved into crescents.
“Alright, the contract is the same as Li Jie’s, but the stake is set at 2%. This is the treatment for Elders,” Li Yao said. This was the usual practice, so future core team members might not even have a stake.
“We’ll do the same for now. We’re still undecided,” the Fruity Knight said.
“Okay.” Li Yao sent the electronic contracts to them and then granted them some Elder permissions.
Da Vinci said he hadn’t discussed it with his family yet, so for now, this would suffice. Li Yao didn’t force him.
“Now we just have the Guild Mistress left.” The Guardian Knight said with a smile.
“I’m tired of being a commentator, and I’m not photogenic either, so I can’t be an official commentator. Might as well do the same as them,” Qin Fengyi said with a smile.
Li Yao paused and was about to speak when Li Jie said, “Xiayao has quite a few connections, she can handle diplomacy and promotion.”
“What do you think?” Naturally, Li Yao hoped Qin Fengyi would take over, but their relationship was a bit delicate at the moment.
It wasn’t exactly a feud; they had reconciled but hadn’t kept in touch privatly. And yet they were always together.
“I can,” Qin Fengyi nodded.
This time, Li Yao gave her the same contract as Li Jie, and once Qin Fengyi signed, Li Yao immediately promoted her to the position of the Guild Mistress.
And then he said awkwardly, “Well, a Level 1 guild can only have one Vice President, so you’ll have to bear with it for now.”
“Okay,” Qin Fengyi said naturally. In her heart, she was always meant to be the Guild Mistress. There was nothing to be embarrassed about.
Everyone burst into laughter immediately. Guardian Angel disdainfully said, “As expected from the Guild Mistress. I always said there was something fishy between these two.”
“You guys are so out of touch. Big brother and big sister were a couple back in college, alright? I especially looked it up on the Huaxia University forum. They were quite famous,” Daimeng Tongtong said dismissively.
“So there’s insider information! I need to look it up too,” Guardian Angel was immediately intrigued.
“Alright, enough with the nonsense. We’re here,” Li Yao said.
Li Yao and Tongtong and the others entered a massive tent.
The majority inside were Taurens. Li Yao saluted, “Greetings, Officer. I am Yao Yuan, the president of the Starfire Guild. We’re here to look for guild missions we can take on.”
“So you’re Yao Yuan, offering to help with our troubles. Come, come, have a look. We’re really stumped by them.” A genial Tauren Lieutenant handed over a roll of parchment.”
The Troll next to the Lieutenant said: “The Taurens are planning to move the entire tribe and establish a capital. But the Endless Plains have been deserted for many years; it’s filled with terrifying monsters. And we’re still at war with the Centaurs. We just can’t spare any troops. But hardly any guilds or adventurers come our way. Sigh.”
Li Yao nodded, looked at the mission name, and pointed to one of them, saying, “We’ll take on this one – wiping out the Prairie Wolf Pack.”
The Tauren looked surprised, “Officer Yao Yuan, you should know that this is the most difficult mission. Prairie Wolves are naturally bloodthirsty and brutal, and the worst part is they live in packs. They are the plague and dominant race of the plains. Your guild is only Level 1, this mission may not be suitable for you guys.”
“Thank you for your concern, Officer. I’m confident we can handle it,” Li Yao said with determination.
“Alright then, since you’re the inheritor favored by the Queen, take it,” the Lieutenant handed over another piece of parchment to Li Yao.
The parchment turned into a beam of light and integrated into the mission log. At the same time, all the members of the Starfire Guild received the mission.
Holy shit, the president’s gone mad,” the Prairie Watcher exclaimed.
“What do you mean?” the members around him asked.
“Prairie wolves, they live in packs,” the Prairie Watcher swallowed and said.
“So they live in packs, so what? Is it really that big of a deal?” another guild member didn’t understand.
“Damn, my race is Tauren. After level 10, many players discovered that the mobs here are dense and there are plenty of missions, so players flocked here. But do you see any other players around here beside us?” the Prairie Watcher said.
Forget about players from the East Continent, even many from the West Continent didn’t know.
“Stop beating around the bush, what’s going on?”
The Prairie Watcher said, “Basically, everyone died. Now, no players dare to come.”
“Really?” some people didn’t believe him.
“What’s the point of lying to you, then tell me, why aren’t there any players in this leveling map for level 10?” the Prairie Watcher said discontentedly.
“Stop beating around the bush. What the hell is going on? Are we all going to die?”
