Chapter Eighty-One - Return to the Inner City [Fourth Update]

  "Oh, is that so? Well done, I'll send out flying birds to help you. As for the Leaf Scar you mentioned, try to win him over, after all, it takes many talents to conquer the world!"

  "Yes, young master." The man in black hung up the Starcom and revealed a triumphant smile. Ten years of waiting had finally paid off today, and when he returned to his family, he would surely be reused by the young master!!

  Looking at the sheepskin scroll in his hand, he was filled with anticipation.

  "I say, what are you doing in a place like this? At our current pace, we should be waiting for the system to finish tallying up the scores and then head back to the city to bask in everyone's praise."

  "I didn't ask you to follow me?" Wàng Chén fiercely despised Luo Yu with a glance.

  Luo Yu said straightforwardly: "I'm just concerned about you, who knows what you're doing running around."

  Wang Chen continued to proceed with caution, when suddenly he made a "shh" gesture. Luo Yu's eyes turned: "What? Found something?" His intuition told him that following Wang Chen would definitely lead to something happening, and it seemed like this was indeed the case.

  Within his line of sight, a strange figure seemed to appear. In the circle of perception, he clearly felt that there were more breaths around him that were different from theirs. It seemed like there was someone else here.

  The black-clad man who was hanging up the communication seemed to have a similar perceptual ability. When Wàng Chén and Luó Yǔ suddenly appeared on the opposite side of his original position, this guy had already disappeared. Wàng Chén furrowed his brow, just now there was indeed a third person present here, but they found nothing when they appeared without hesitation...

  "Hmm, what's going on?" Luo Yu knew that there was indeed someone here just now, but in the blink of an eye, they vanished. This kind of ability is not ordinary.

  "It doesn't seem as simple as I imagined." He thought to himself, then sighed: "Let's go, it's about time we headed back, the mission countdown has started." The Creation System transmitted the mission countdown information, which meant that in this battle, humanity had won the first cruel war with a crushing victory for the first time.

  They had been gone for a long time, and the dark shadow slowly emerged, with a heavy gaze that gradually dimmed, followed by a gloomy smile: "That guy from Street Edge Town, heh heh heh, better not ruin Young Master's plan, otherwise......" Before he could finish speaking, he turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared without a trace.

  At this time, the outer city of the Moon Kingdom had a countdown to enter the city, and the condition was to thoroughly clean up the only thousands of monsters left in the city. After Ye Shang appeared, a slaughter order was issued, and the exhausted players once again witnessed the power of the Freedom Corps. Those regenerating beasts that had been troublesome for them were as simple to kill as ants.

  Thousands of heads, and yet they were able to resolve it without even breaking a sweat. People finally realized the gap between them and the Freedom Legion. After all, they were seasoned warriors who had been fighting for years, always hovering on the edge of life and death. This was different from the players who were used to living an easy life in the city.

  "Ding dong, mission countdown, 10..."

  “9....8...7...6...”

  “3...2...”

  “1!”

  "Congratulations to everyone for completing the task, now let's start calculating the points."

  Weary people are all immersed in the joy of survival, and the system's point calculation is even more exciting for people, which is related to the rewards they have exchanged with their lives.

  Wang Chen's personal system also started calculating.

  "Ding dong, based on your performance in the battlefield, your final score is 17,000 points. Personal ranking: 7 Overall ranking: 13."

  "So many points?" Even Wang Xiuzhen was a bit surprised, the number of revived heads he had killed was indeed in the hundreds, but the levels were different, and there were only a few above LV9. After being averaged out, it was unexpected that they could get so many points. Only after opening the details did he discover that blocking the city gate had earned him 5,000 points. The intelligent system of the Creation System was indeed not to be underestimated, its accuracy was surprisingly high.

  "Haha, I'm always ranked eighth!" Compared to Wang Chen's calm demeanor, Luo Yu burst out laughing, and the people around him cast envious glances.

  Although the joy of victory filled people's hearts, in this outer city, there were more voices of condemnation. Many powerful forces had gathered together, and one by one, they furiously found Ye Shang, a war of words officially broke out, but Ye Shang was too lazy to care about them.

  "You not only regained your former confidence, but also got the corresponding reward. Even if you're blind, you shouldn't lose the ability to distinguish right from wrong, should you? Moreover, this selection task hasn't ended yet. The ultimate goal of this selection is to choose the deputy commander of the Freedom Legion. If it weren't for this point, people like Bloodless and others wouldn't be here tolerating Ye Shang's nonsense. They would probably just leave directly."

  "Hmph, if it weren't for this time we fought to the death, who knows what the outcome would have been. Next time, I hope you won't deceive us again. After all, putting your back in the hands of an untrustworthy teammate is a very frightening thing." People were criticizing Ye Shang, but there was nothing they could do about it, and this matter had to be dropped. Although this incident wasn't directly related to Ye Shang, for them, he represented the kingdom, and the kingdom's meaning was his meaning, which was why it triggered everyone's discontent.

  "What do you think?" Luo Yu was actually very much looking forward to Wang Chen's insight.

  "What's wrong? As you said, we should return to the city and accept everyone's praise and admiration now..." Wàng Chén smiled and said, but in his heart, a layer of gloom had indeed settled, everything that happened today seemed as if an invisible black hand was controlling everything.

  But whatever the case, everything that happened today will be recorded in the history of the Moon Kingdom, for a hundred years, in the battles where humans ended up failing time and time again, they achieved a glorious victory for the first time. This battle, not a single person lost their life, of course, many players also paid a certain price.

  When the news flashed back to the kingdom, the whole nation was jubilant. The recapture of the outer city's control meant that more people could survive, and as they walked on the streets, those who were still alive in the outer city emerged from the dark underground, basking in the warm sunshine that shone on them. It had been a long time since some people last saw the light outside since the fall of the outer city.

  There were still some resentful people who were infected by the gratitude and joyful smiles of those who were rescued, and gradually their inner world was like it used to be. At this moment, they felt that everything they did was so worth it!

  When the Dust Settlers returned to the inner city once again, what they got was the boiling of the entire Residual Moon Kingdom. On this day, they were destined to be heroes, for they brought new hope to the Residual Moon Kingdom!!!

  Honorable guests, it's getting late (four watches have ended)
