”Oh?”
I was slightly shocked and asked, ”What's the matter Eve?”
”Look at this link...”
He Yi quickly sent me a forums link. I clicked it. It was the new address for Sky City on the official forums. On the front page was a large video selection. On the ad s.p.a.ce was a scene of two players fighting in the wilderness. I looked closely. It looks very familiar!
WTF, wasn't this the scene of me fighting Farewell Song half an hour ago?
I rubbed my eyes. Right, this was the fight between me and Farewell Song. Also, a player hiding had seemed to have recorded the entire battle and then posted it on the forums. Right now, the post was pinned at the top with over a million clicks, and over ten thousand replies!
The large red topic—”Sky City's first battle between Hall of Famers. A true video of Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand VS Farewell Song. The first conflict between the two major forces—Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and Warsky Alliance!”
I opened the post, and the video started to play. I had no need to watch and just looked down. The author of the post described in small font, ”Not long ago, when I was leveling up in Sky Forest, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand was coincidentally also leveling up there. I hadn't expected him to get ambushed by Farewell Song. After a ferocious conflict, Farewell Song was defeated. Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand originally could have killed Farewell Song, but another CGL Hall of Famer, Laughing At the Heavens from Warsky Alliance appeared in time. However, he was still unable to stop the slaughter of the Unkillable War G.o.d. In the end, Warsky Alliance paid the price of 8 lives before the conflict ended.”
I smiled. The author of the video seemed to be biased toward me. In reality, I wasn't as strong as I looked. At least, I was unwilling to truly fight Warsky Alliance but I had no other choice then.
The replies came with their own opinions—
1st comment: Warsky Alliance seems to be very popular. Didn't Warsky announce yesterday on the forums that his guild is the master of Sky City? But here they clearly retreated. Why didn't they fight when encountering Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand?
2nd comment: Haha, they are evenly matched. Warsky Alliance has three CGL Hall of Famers, but Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand ranks 12th. Among the present Hall of Fame players, Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand is only slightly weaker than Candlelight Shadow. Haha, Warsky's trio pale in comparison!
3rd comment: d.a.m.n, Warsky Alliance is too arrogant. My younger brother wanted to join their guild at noon, but was bullied. Aren't they just a guild with a bit of fame? What's there to be proud of? Now that they've encountered a strong guild like Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, how are they gonna dominate Sky City?
4th comment: Tsk tsk, why didn't October Rain fight? I heard she is a famed speed archer. I really want to see her fight Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand!
5th comment: October Rain is really good, she has a good figure and pale complexion! Let's hang out!
6th comment: The person above is an idiot. Didn't they say that October Rain is Warsky's girlfriend?
7th comment: Yo, the guy above, stop farting with your mouth. October Rain is our Huazhong University's beauty. She doesn't have a boyfriend at all. Don't speak nonsense when you don't know anything!
……
In the end, the conflict between guilds caused a war on the forums. The strong guilds in Sky City all gradually appeared. Snowy Cathaya, Warsky Alliance, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls, G.o.ds of Destruction and others. The situation wasn't very clear but it was easy to imagine the huge war between hidden dragons and crouching tigers that would embroil Sky City!
Also, the Heavenly Ranking housed some seemingly lone wolves. It was surprising to see unaffiliated people at this stage of the game. Especially that guy with the Dragon Warrior cla.s.s. Legendary Brave was his name. Undoubtedly, this person was extraordinarily strong but no guild had managed to recruit him. He didn't even add friends.
Murong Mingyue was the beautiful female diplomat of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls. Originally, He Yi had sent Murong Mingyue to recruit him. But she hadn't succeeded. Murong Mingyue hadn't even managed to get added as a friend. The other had disabled friend requests. Such a headstrong player!
Also, there was a player with a hidden profession. Little Piglet. Cold Wind Swordsman. Also a player with a high level but no guild. It was so strange. Were all experts proud lone wolves who wanted to roam the world alone?
……
Beep!
System Notice: Player “From Water” invited you to the party!
I accepted and joined.
”Eve, what is it?” I asked.
He Yi said, ”The people from Warsky Alliance are definitely targeting you. Lu Chen, where are you? We are going to do quests together, so you won't be alone and get caught!”
Murong Mingyue said, ”Yeah, we wouldn't look good if you died!”
”d.a.m.n, can't you have good hopes for me...”
I was speechless. ”No need, Warsky Alliance temporarily won't fight us. I'm leveling up the Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf. Where are you?”
”Killing the Forest Ghosts, they give so much experience!” Beiming Xue said.
I smiled. ”Okay, then continue!”
”Big bro!” Beiming Xue suddenly shouted.
”What is it?” I asked.
”Uh... uh...” Beiming Xue spoke haltingly. After a moment, when I almost stopped breathing, she said, ”I want to eat hotpot tonight, will you come with me?”
”Fine, no problem!” I smiled.
”Okay, it's settled!”
