"Yes, that's a signal flare." Priscilla nodded with a bitter smile, "But this isn't just any signal flare. It's the invasion warning from the Smiling Skulls, alerting their members that an external force is targeting them. Any Smiling Skull members who see this flare must rush over immediately to eliminate all intruders."

"What started as a minor issue at a temporary Smiling Skull base is now going to mobilize the entire group. Leaving the Wraith Mountain Range is going to be even harder now."

"Is what this lady said true? Are they really all going to gather?" Yiye Fuyun, who came over, looked at Priscilla excitedly.

"Yes, in about ten minutes, a large number of Smiling Skull members will gather," Priscilla nodded, understanding that the current situation was bad, even terrible, seeing Yiye Fuyun's excitement.

"Sis! This is great! We're going to make it big!" Yiye Fuyun laughed, almost unable to close his mouth, "We couldn't find them before, and now they're coming our way. This operation is totally worth it."

The loot dropped by Smiling Skull members in the Wraith Mountain Range is exceptionally good.

The earlier Half-Beast man not only had a set of Tier Two Battle Armor and a Tier Two Weapon, but he also had many Energy Crystal Stones and Type Three Energy Potions not found in the Martial Arts Hall.

It's undeniable that the new map level is high, and the loot is excellent, far surpassing the Wilderness map.

We thought such a good opportunity was just a one-time thing, and it would take who knows how long to find a similar opportunity again. But this random event is actually a chain event, promising more Smiling Skull members to show up, which is incredibly exciting!

Especially the dropped Tier Two Battle Armor and Energy Crystal Stones, which can be exchanged for a good reputation in Red Moon Town.

A complete set of Tier Two Battle Armor can be exchanged for thirty thousand contributions and a thousand reputation at the Martial Arts Hall, and each Energy Crystal Stone can be exchanged for five thousand contributions and fifty reputation.

Currently, it's really tough to increase reputation in Red Moon Town. Normally, to gather three thousand reputation, you'd have to do tasks for ten days or half a month. Just upgrading the Inner Sect Disciple's attire requires five thousand reputation, let alone upgrading to Core Disciple attire, which requires fifty thousand reputation.

If many more Smiling Skull members come, it's not impossible to reach Admiration in Red Moon Town, even up to Reverence.

"Aren't you considering running away?" Priscilla looked at Yiye Fuyun in surprise, feeling that they didn't understand the situation at all.

The signal flare sent by Hao Wang before he died could summon so many Smiling Skull members, not just one or two teams, but maybe ten or more, something that Yiye Fuyun's mere seven people couldn't handle.

"No! We plan to stay here." Ye Qinglu shook her head, smiling, "If you think it's not safe to leave, we can escort you out first."

"Are you crazy? What grudge do you have with the Smiling Skulls to go this far?" Priscilla looked at Fang Zhen and the others coming over, as they were also excited hearing about the gathering Smiling Skull members, thinking Ye Qinglu and the others were crazy.

"A grudge?" Yiye Fuyun thought for a moment, then righteously said, "Not really, we're just completing a task. After all, offering our hearts to the Hall Master is our duty as disciples."

Hearing this, Fang Zhen and the others gave Yiye Fuyun disdainful looks from afar. It's shameless to use a task to curry favor with the Hall Master.

But Yiye Fuyun didn't mind, rolling his eyes at Fang Zhen and the others, thinking they, as professional players, didn't understand the essence of playing an MMORPG.

As a regular player, fostering good relations with NPCs and improving character favorability is basic. This increases the chances of getting hidden treasures in the game, let alone currying favor with the Hall Master.

"Offering our hearts? Our duty?" Priscilla was stunned, never expecting the Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall's brainwashing of disciples to be so terrifying, surpassing even the death warriors trained in Domain City.

"Miss, would you like me to escort you out?" Yiye Fuyun asked, seeing Priscilla in a daze.

Seeing Priscilla felt like a blessing. Though the value of luring out the Smiling Skulls was lost, there might be other tasks available, potentially earning more.

"No need to trouble you, I can escape on my own." Priscilla instinctively refused, sensing Yiye Fuyun might have ulterior motives, "But before I leave, I have something that might be useful to you. I found this in a Smiling Skull temporary base. I hope it helps."

Priscilla pulled out an old paper map from her clothes and handed it to Yiye Fuyun.

Yiye Fuyun was overjoyed immediately upon seeing it.

After all, you never know what hidden goodies an NPC might reveal until you interact with them more.

"I'll take my leave now. Hopefully, we meet again," Priscilla said, relieved, as she watched Yiye Fuyun treasure the map. She was heavily injured, her combat strength greatly reduced. Though she had no grudge with Black Obsidian Martial Arts Hall, for her safety, she offered some benefits, otherwise, leaving the place might not have been possible.
