Chapter 298: Milky Way Bow (1/2)
That’s right, out of all the fighters in the party, I’m the one true warrior because Swordsman was a subclass of Warrior, and by extension, the Undead Swordsman class was as well. Lin Yixin was a Light Wanderer, and He Yi was a Magic Knight. They might be melee fighters, but they weren’t actual warriors.
I clutched the War Crush skill book and said, ”This is mine too…”
The girls, the priests, the mages and the archers all looked depressed. Wind Fury was a metal armor boss, and most of the equipment he dropped had nothing to do with them. Of course they weren’t going to be satisfied with the loot.
Murong Mingyue said sadly, ”Sigh, it looks like I’m not going to get anything this time.”
I shook my head. ”Nah, did you forget about the war point reward?”
Oh right, there was another purple skill book that I hadn’t checked yet. The moment I brought up its stats screen, the girls immediately gaped at it in shock. We got lucky this time—
Grip of the Compassionate: Heal a target 3 times in a row. Each consecutive heal is 40%~60% more effective than the last. 10 second cooldown. Level Requirement: 80. Class Requirement: Priest
……
Murong Mingyue’s eyes lit up immediately. Ask, and ye shall receive!
This ”Grip of the Compassionate” was absolutely one of the greatest single-target healing spells a priest could have. A priest’s value lies in their Healing Per Second, HPS, especially the main healer of a powerful MT!
Murong Mingyue and Moon Dew rolled for the loot, and the score was 99 points versus 14 points. Murong Mingyue happily took the skill book and learned it immediately!
……
While they were having fun, I brought up the quest list and noted that the ranking was still there—

……
It was the same ten players I had seen the last time. The only thing that changed was their order.
There was a countdown happening in the system window. Moreover, Princess Sophia had just arrived at the ruined great hall of Skull Castle and plunged the Devil Suppressing Sword into the ground with a shout. The earth immediately started shaking, and the weather grew turbulent again. Dark clouds covered the sky, occasionally torn apart by thick bolts of lightning.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
This cursed land was destined to be saved, and the wielder of the Devil Suppressing Sword, Sophia, would undoubtedly become its new master!
At the distance, Princess Karinshan of Floating Ice City gripped her sword and stared at Sophia with steely determination. She was about to walk toward Sophia when she suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked above her!
”Ah…”
Karinshan hastily took a few steps backward and she stared fearfully at the beautiful figure staring down on her from the sky. It was none other than Xinran herself. ”You are the princess from Floating Ice City. I’ve heard of you. This is the land of the Violet Empire, so it belongs to its royal descendants as a matter of course. Sophia is now the owner of this land, and I wish to see the newly established Violet Kingdom share a peaceful relationship with Floating Ice City. If you insist on breaking the peace, then do not blame me for summoning the warriors of the Netherworld and bath Floating Ice City in blood!”
Karinshan bit her lips in silent frustration, but she couldn’t say anything. Xinran clearly wasn’t going to back down, and Karinshan was aware that she might not be able to win against the Wind Singer. In the end, she could only turn around to face her troops and shout, ”Warriors of Floating Ice City, withdraw!”
”Yes, Your Majesty!”
Black Cavalry Commander Stark shouted the retreat orders, and the army of Floating Ice City turned around and marched back toward their own city, finally sounding the end of this devastating war. The good news was that the united forces of man and the good undead were ultimately able to seal away the evil spirits on this land, and a new kingdom was soon to be reborn.
Suddenly, a new ding resounded across all the cities—
Ding~!

……
Everyone was dazzled by the list of rewards. Not only did the system reward us with levels, the war points were also converted into insane amounts of experience. Long story short, I had leveled up another 4 times and reached Level 92 in one go! No one was expecting the quest reward to be this amazing. Candlelight Shadow and I were the same level when he showed up at Floating Ice City. Now? I was 7 levels ahead of him! Sure, he was good enough that 7 levels weren’t a gap he couldn’t close, but he must be feeling humiliated right now.
I checked my bag and saw a cyan-colored pet egg with a purple sheen. So this is an Epic Rank pet egg, huh? I wondered how powerful it was and whether it could measure up to He Yi’s Firelight Mouse. It probably could. It was the reward for the MVP, right? Lin Yixin, the runner-up, got a 2-star Outstanding metal armor, so my Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf had to be way more valuable than that!
