Those who reincarnate must die.

Soon, all the bounty posters on the bulletin board had been distributed. Olissis breathed a sigh of relief: "Seeing everyone's enthusiasm, I estimate that within two or three days, we'll be able to take down the Rat King and advance to the lower levels!"

Looking at the empty square, this hero-level novice felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment!

"Speaking of which..." Angelica hesitated, "Did we send out this many people just now?"

"Huh?" Olissis was taken aback. "Didn't you see? He took the bounty and left!"

"No team..." The burly black man, Tuka, shook his head. "I've looked closely. Usually, the teams that accept the bounty are at most a dozen people... some even have only a few... all together, it's less than half!"

"Huh?" Olissis scratched his head. "What about the rest?"

"They probably got bored and left... After all, there's more than one way to earn gold coins in this world!" Mane Wolf chuckled. "Anyway, I don't care... Killing too many of those grunts is just a waste of time. Let those small fry earn points. I only care about the boss on each floor!"

"That won't do!" Olissis frowned. "We came into this world together, so we're companions. We should maximize everyone's interests!"

The blond boy's words startled Maned Wolf: "Are you serious?" Seeing Olissis's genuine expression, Maned Wolf burst into laughter: "I thought you were randomly assigning tasks hoping those burdensome characters would die quickly... I didn't expect you actually thought they could earn points?"

"How did you, such a naive guy, even reach Hero rank?"

"What do you mean?" Olissis frowned, looking at her other hero-level teammates. "What do you mean by 'die faster'?"

The burly black man, Tuka, shrugged; the silver-haired sniper, Murong Lan, was still cleaning her gun; Zhao Ying was still brandishing his throwing knife; Angelica was on his side, but also somewhat confused. (Google search reading)

These heroic-level characters, though from the same altar, were all just passing through this newbie village, number 36. They'd only done one or two quests together at most, so there wasn't much of a deep bond between them. Only Angelica and Olissis were teammates from the regular altar, companions who had grown up together.

To be honest, if it weren't for their long-standing partnership, which gave them an advantage over the other lone heroes, even with Olissis having several powerful enhancements and considerable strength, the other heroes might not have followed his orders.

"Monsters can move!" Finally, the emotionless electronic voice answered him. Thunder, piloting a massive power armor, coldly stated, "What if they encounter other monsters they're not good at dealing with while searching for the monsters according to the bounty?"

"This..." Olissis was taken aback: "Then... let's fight! We're all teammates; anyone who accepts a bounty must have the skill!"

"But you've categorized them according to the types of monsters they're good at dealing with!" Murong Lan finally finished cleaning her gun and tossed her soft, silver hair. "If a team is only good at dealing with one type of monster, they're basically doomed if they encounter one they're not compatible with, right?"

Zhao Ying tossed a throwing knife: "Those who left probably realized that following you was unreliable, and since they didn't dare offend a hero-level figure, they secretly left to go solo!"

"But they can't defeat the monsters on their own!" Angelica defended her old teammate. "Olissis is indeed improving their efficiency! If everyone can work together and face the right monsters, this is the most efficient tactic with the fewest casualties!"

"Your ideas are too idealistic!" Maned Wolf shrugged. "This isn't just three people, thirty people... it's over three hundred! Over three hundred people with different abilities, from different places, and different races! Without any prior interaction or even mutual suspicion, how can they possibly cooperate seamlessly? In the end, it will only result in chaos..."

"Besides, we can't even be sure how accurate the information on the bounty poster is!" a ruthless electronic voice rang out. "If the intelligence is wrong, or if a monster not mentioned on the bounty poster appears, wouldn't the plan be disrupted?"

"Then... are we just not going to make a plan?" Olissis said through gritted teeth.

"Of course we'll make the plan!" Maned Wolf chuckled. "But it depends on who we're working with!"

"Don't forget, this is an altar, a death game where only the strong can survive. Let's wait and see who will emerge victorious!"

The southern district of Radiant City is the city's wealthy area. Exquisite carriages travel along the wide and beautiful streets, which are lined with luxurious detached mansions. These are either the residences of high-ranking officials in the capital or the villas of feudal nobles in the capital.

In recent years, due to the increasing development of commerce, many wealthy merchants have purchased properties here, but in general, they are still looked down upon by bureaucrats and nobles.

Recently, due to the sewer monster incident, the number of patrolling troops on the streets of the South District has increased, and every residence has been reinforced with guards. Many have even hired mercenaries to help with security. After all, monsters don't discriminate between wealthy families and ordinary citizens when abducting people.

Le Xinyi, Ye Peng, and Su Mingda walked on the streets of the South District, holding a slightly crumpled piece of paper in their hands. They compared the information on the paper with the numbers on both sides of the street.

"I asked, is that hunter reliable?" Su Mingda asked, sounding a little nervous.

Although they had worked together on missions back then, Zhang Lang's impression on him was that of a ruthless killer... no, a maniac who killed insects without blinking an eye. He never appeared at the altar again after that, and Su Mingda even guessed that he might have been killed in real life... Although he couldn't imagine how a monster who could fight his way in and out of swarms of insects could die in real life, he would feel more at ease if he could stay away from such dangerous factors.

But unexpectedly, we encountered it again during this mission!

"Don't worry!" Ye Peng laughed, "We've had further contact with him since then, and he's not as scary as he seems!"

Because of this mission, Ye Peng had to reveal his contact with Zhang Lang to his companions, but he didn't mention any specific details, nor did he expose Zhang Lang's real identity. He only mentioned that he met "Hunter" at a gathering of reincarnators and wanted to cooperate on another mission.

"Not that scary?" Su Mingda curled his lip. "I've done five or six missions already, including the monsters in the mission worlds, and I've never seen anything that terrifying! Not just me, even Wang Chusheng is too scared to come!"

In fact, not all the others who didn't come were below the required score; some were intimidated by Zhang Lang's intimidating reputation and dared not come despite being recruited. Even Su Mingda, who mustered up the courage to come, didn't dare to speak to Zhang Lang in the crowd and could only watch from afar.

"Don't worry!" Le Xinyi comforted her, "As long as you don't provoke him, he won't do anything to you! Hey, are we here?"

Finally, they arrived at the gate of a luxurious mansion: "This is it!"

Seeing the three people stop there, a guard carrying a long spear stepped forward and asked, "May I ask what brings you here?"

Le Xinyi nodded and smiled, "Is this Earl Hunter's villa in the capital? We are his friends, here in the City of Radiance on business, and the Earl said we could stay here!"

"I'm sorry..." the gatekeeper said politely, "We haven't received any orders from His Excellency the Earl... Do you have any token to prove it?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Ye Peng handed over the slip of paper. "This is... a letter of introduction from the hunter... the Earl... things happened so suddenly, he only had time to scribble a few words..."

The gatekeeper nodded: "Wait a moment..." and then took the note and went into the courtyard.

A moment later, a middle-aged man dressed in a black tailcoat, with a tall and upright figure, who looked like a butler, came out and bowed slightly to Le Xinyi and Ye Peng.

"Sorry to keep you all waiting... This way, please!"

Le Xinyi and Ye Peng looked at each other, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

Are privilege cards really that powerful?

The two had never experienced such preferential treatment in a mission world before, and they followed the butler into the Earl's mansion in a somewhat dreamlike state.

Meanwhile, at a nearby intersection, a tall figure watched them from afar. Only after seeing the gate closed tightly did he turn and leave.
