Looking at the attributes provided by the ring, James Williams was a little surprised. The attributes given by this white gold equipment were too high. It was on a completely different level compared to gold equipment.

This made James Williams much more confident in clearing the Dark Swamp dungeon. He called Tycoon and asked him to go over to the entrance of Dark Swamp.

When he heard that his boss was about to enter the dungeon, Tycoon quickly replied saying that he would be there soon.

While waiting for Tycoon to arrive, James Williams also looked at his attributes. Now, he already had two skills.

“Boss, are you finally going to start clearing the dungeon?” Tycoon’s voice came from the front.

“Hmm… How about this, I’ll send another announcement in the chat. If no one comes, then we’ll do it ourselves,” James Williams said.

[Hades: Brothers and friends, a top-tier player leads the team to become the first clear of the Dark Swamp dungeon. 2/5, 200,000 gold coins per person, money will be refunded if the dungeon is not cleared.]

[Hades: Brothers and friends, a top-tier player leads the team to become the first clear of the Dark Swamp dungeon. 2/5, 200,000 gold coins per person, money will be refunded if the dungeon is not cleared.]

[Hades: Brothers, friends…]

[Hades: Brothers, friends…]

[Hades: Brothers, friends…]

James Williams spent another 100 gold coins on 10 small announcements at once.

The Novice Village chat room exploded once again.

Countless messages were sent out one after another.

[Money refunded if the dungeon is not cleared? Really? Count me in!]

[My God, Hades is too confident.]

[Brothers, Hades definitely can’t clear the dungeon. He’s just scamming money. Don’t be cheated.]

…

All kinds of messages appeared in the chat room, but there were also many people who added James Williams as a friend.

Tina, who was trying her best to conquer Dark Swamp, saw James Williams’ message. Money refunded if he failed to clear the dungeon? She immediately sent a message to James William.

[Tina: Hades, my Rose Union wants three spots.]

However, at this moment, James Williams had already contacted two players, and they were arriving soon. He could only helplessly reply to Tina.

[Hades: I’m sorry, Tina, there’s only one slot left. If you want the slot, why don’t you pay more?]

Tina could not help but grit her teeth when she saw James Williams’ message. This person was simply a vampire. He was crazily raking in money in Eternity as if he had never seen money before.

[Tina: Alright, I’ll give you 300,000 gold coins per slot. We’ll come out of the Dark Swamp dungeon now to meet you.]

Looking at this message, James Williams’ lips curled into a wide smile. This was simply like a pie falling from the sky. 600,000 gold coins were enough for his sister’s surgery fee. He could even use the remaining money to better his life.

He then sent a message to the two players to explain.

[Hades: Sorry, brother. Someone here has offered a higher price than you. I’ve already given her the slot. You don’t have to come anymore.]

Looking at the message, the two of them pursed their lips. ‘It’s as if you’re 100% certain that you can clear the dungeon. We’re only here because of the refund.’

Looking at the message sent by the boss, Tycoon felt a little awkward as he saw that his boss had raised the price to 200,000. After all, he had only spent 100,000 gold coins to join the team.

[Ding!]

[You have received 600,000 gold coins from Rose Union, Tina!]

A notification sounded.

Then, Tina led the three members of the union out of Dark Swamp and met up with James Williams.

After tidying up.

Tina said to James William, “For this mission, you have to temporarily join Rose Union. That way, we will receive the union reward. Moreover, all the equipment, materials, and skill books dropped in the dungeon will belong to us. We spent 600,000 gold coins after all.”

600,000 gold coins were enough to buy a BMW in the real world.

Tina put her hands on her waist. To her, this request was not excessive at all.

However, James Williams did not back down.

“I’m sorry, but…

“For this mission, all of you need to join my union, Zero. The union reward for the first kill will belong to Zero. Moreover, as you said just now, all the items dropped in the dungeon, such as the gold coins, equipment, and so on are all mine. If you want to be on the global banner and increase your popularity, you’ll have to temporarily join my union.”

James Williams also stated his own rules.

After all, there were many people who wanted to come in and take advantage of the global banner.

There was a very high chance that good items would drop from the first clear of such a high-difficulty dungeon. He could not give away these benefits just because the other party spent 600,000 gold coins.

He had to earn enough money to pay for his sister’s surgery within a month.

Damn it…

Tina did not expect James Williams to be so tough. He had no intention of giving them anything even though she had spent 600,000 gold coins.

However, she could not bear to part with the global banner reward that came with being the world’s first clear, which was very rare for her union.

After thinking for a while, Tina gritted her teeth and said, “If you don’t succeed, you have to compensate us with an additional 100,000 gold coins each! We will do as you say. We don’t want any of the rewards. We just want to be on the global banner.”

Looking at Tina’s compromised expression, James Williams also nodded. “No problem. It’s settled, then.”

[Ding!]

[You’ve invited Rose Union, Tina, Rose Union, Laura, and Rose Union, Judith to join Zero.]

[Agreed.]

[Agreed.]

[Agreed.]

Now, the three of them were already members of his union.

“Alright, since we’re ready, let’s enter the dungeon,” James Williams said to the three of them and Tycoon.

At this moment, Tina and the others realized that this level 15 warrior was also one of the party members for the mission.

She could not help but look at James Williams with a puzzled expression. What did he mean? Was he bringing a level 15 warrior to clear the dungeon? His pet had not even hatched yet.. Could it be that he did not understand how helpful pets were?
