The player with a scruffy beard really warned to refuse, but his eyes couldn’t help but look at that bag of gold coins.

His body trembled, and his limbs seemed to be out of control as he picked up the bag.

Clang, clang-

The coins collided, producing the most wonderful melody in the world.

Upon hearing this sound, the player with the scruffy beard s face became intoxicated, as if he were in ecstasy.

The four of them looked at each other and shouted in unison.

“Boss, we ll follow your lead! If you say west, we won’t go east!”

It’s not that they lacked backbone, but what was offered was just too much.

Since they couldn’t win, they decided to join.

They believed that being dogs for Ji Chen would probably yield rewards no less than those of the natives.

Ji Chen looked at the four of them, who were now loyal and willing, and smiled gently.

Ever since he plundered the thirteen council families of the Starshine Islands, the Crown of the Ocean had amassed a staggering 32 million gold coins.

Even though most of it was used to help Xhakas and the others rebuild the islands, develop industries, and fill granaries, he still had six to seven million left, enough to fill a granary.

This mere ten thousand gold coins was nothing, not even worth mentioning.

“Tell me your forum usernames.”

“I’m Sun Wukong.” The scruffy-bearded player made a playful gesture that the character Monkey King would use.

Ji Chen paused, his expression somewhat peculiar as he looked at the other three.

“I’m Sha Wuqing!”

“I’m Tang Seng!”

Ji Chen turned to the last player, who had a belly similar to Raymond’s, and asked somewhat puzzled. “So, you must be Zhu Ba Jie, right?”

The player scratched his head with some embarrassment.

“Uh, no, I’m called Lao Ba.”

Ji Chen paused, then asked with a hint of curiosity.

“Is it just the four of you? Isn’t there also a Xiao Bai Long?”

Sun Wukong chuckled. “Of course, but Xiao Bai Long is staying back in the territory to help guard it. Otherwise, if the wild monsters steal our home, we’d be in big trouble.”

Aren’t they lovely? The five of them were like the novel version of the Journey to the West with a slightly strange twist.

But Ji Chen was used to the eccentric usernames of casual players; some players’ usernames were so bizarre that they were unbearable even in the game’s cutscenes.

Just as Ji Chen was thinking about having these four goofballs do something, Benbo came running over from a distance.

His large fins made him look a bit comical and clumsy on land, but the Journey to the West players didn’t show any contempt. Instead, they looked solemn.

Because what they saw on the interface panel was a string of question marks, except for the name and race indicating that the level and strength of this hero unit had completely exceeded their detection capabilities.

The few of them whispered among themselves.

“Boss, this hero looks pretty strong. i can’t even scout its interface panel.”

“My scouting skill has reached the purple level, and 1 still can’t figure it out. It’s probably at least the Red-Legacy Tier or higher.”

“F*ck, it’s just like that masked lady then. Doesn’t that mean they’re both at least Red-Legacy Tier heroes? I’m so envious…”

Ignoring the banter of these guys, Ji Chen headed towards the hastily arriving Benbo.

“Is there something wrong?”

Benbo stopped in front of him, bowed respectfully, and then spoke.

“Master, rhe Deceiver with the golden mask has awakened.”

Ji Chen squinted slightly.

Perhaps Anina s punch had been too powerful, because ever since the battle ended a day ago, rhe Deceiver, who wore a golden mask and was known as the Revered Envoy, was in a coma. It seemed as if her body had triggered some sort of protective mechanism, causing her to fall into a deep slumber.

She had piqued Ji Chen’s interest, as the branch leader killed in the Maple Principality had worn a silver mask, while this so-called Revered Envoy wore a golden one, indicating a higher status.

She must know more about the Deceivers and their intentions in launching this war. Extracting information from her about the war or uncovering the Deceivers’ secrets would undoubtedly be a great help in winning the war.

If he could also learn more about this mysterious organization, the Deceivers, that would be even better.

With this in mind, Ji Chen signaled Benbo to wait and turned to the Journey to the West players, who were whispering to each other.

“You guys should find a place to settle in the city for now. 1’11 let you know what you need to do later.”

Watching their departing figures, Ji Chen then headed towards where the Deceiver with rhe golden mask was being held.

“Is she still in good condition?”

Benbo, who was following closely, looked a bit strange.

“There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with her physically, but… mentally, it seems like something’s amiss.”

Did that mean she had gone crazy?

Ji Chen was puzzled because he remembered that Anina had struck her in rhe stomach, so there shouldn’t be any reason for her to have a problem with her brain.

“To be more specific, it seems like she has amnesia.”

“Lord, I can guarantee that 1 punched her in the stomach, not the head. Her current condition is really not my doing! ” Anina explained with a distressed look.

Since the battle had ended, she had been guarding the high-ranking captive to ensure nothing went wrong. She became so bored that she had started counting the leaves on the treetops outside the window.

When she finally saw signs of the Deceiver waking up just now, she thought the tedious waiting was over.. However, to her surprise, after the Deceiver with the golden mask woke up, she appeared completely bewildered, showed no hostility, and upon probing, it was discovered that her mind seemed to be damaged!
