Chapter 678: Grand War (2/2)

Suddenly, I thought of the recently ascended Lin Yixin. She had learned a Divine General Skill and the special ability one could trigger after becoming an Earthfire Realm player, Great Earth Transformation. Since the skill came together with a Divine General Skill, it made sense that one would learn Great Earth Transformation after they became a Divine General. It sounded like an amazing skill too. Right now, I’m sure that Lin Yixin’s fighting capability is the best in the entire server.

I brought up my friend list, but Lin Yixin’s ID wasn’t there anymore. I selected Clear Perfume’s profile and sent her a call request. If Lin Yixin wouldn’t contact me, then I would speak with her best friend instead!

”Mn. Lu Chen?” Sun Qingqing’s voice came from the other side of the communicator.

I nodded. ”Yes, it’s me. Are… are you with Yiyi right now?”

”Yes, why?” Sun Qingqing replied.

I swallowed and nearly couldn’t suppress a sob. ”How is she doing?”

”She’s doing very well. Snowy Cathaya didn’t participate in the war of Immortality City, so she took us to a big map instead. When we killed the last boss, she even became a Divine General. You saw it too, didn’t you? Hehe, Yiyi is so amazing. She’s the first Divine General in all of Heavenblessed…”

”Mn.”

”Lu Chen, what’s wrong?”

I blinked hard and blew away the sand in my eyes. Then I said, ”Qingqing, Yiyi is there with you, right? Can you tell her to add me back to her friend list? Please?”

”Sorry, she doesn’t want to.”

”In that case, tell her that I miss her…” In the end, I couldn’t stop myself from saying this.

Qingqing didn’t say anything for a long time. She probably ran into some trouble while she was relaying my message to Lin Yixin. Almost half a minute later, she finally said, ”Oh, right. I gave Yiyi your message already.”

”What… what did she say?”

Sun Qingqing scolded me. ”She didn’t say anything, she’s just laughing like an idiot. Man, I feel like punching someone right now!”

I couldn’t help but laugh. ”Mn. Thanks, Qingqing.”

I hung up and looked at the sky, the corners of my eyes turning upward and starlight brushing against my cheeks. Yiyi would be leaving for Canada soon.

A few minutes later, just when I was feeling rather drowsy, Sun Qingqing suddenly sent me another message: ”Lu Chen, cherish Yiyi, okay? I’ve known her for many years, but I’ve never met anyone who gave her so much happiness until you.”

”Mn. I know. I will.”

……

I got up to my feet again. The battle had to be over soon, right?

A short moment later, a system announcement rang and declared the conclusion of the territory war!

Ding~!

System Announcement: Congratulations to guild ”Baidicheng” for successfully occupying the territory ”Immortality City.” The war is categorized as a ”Grand” war as countless souls have perished in this battle. The first player on the war contribution leaderboard, ”Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand”, is given the reward: Luck +2, Level +3. The 2nd and 3rd players on the war contribution leaderboard, ”Candlelight Shadow” and ”Stranger of Three Lifetimes”, are given the reward: Luck +1, Level +2. Players ranked 4th to 10th on the war contribution leaderboard are given the reward: Luck +1, Level +1. Finally, players ranked 11th to 1000th on the war contribution leaderboard are given the reward: Level +1.

……

The war was finally over, and the rewards were handsome. War contribution points were basically accumulated via kill count, and at least one-third of the players in the Top 1000 were Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls players. This war was an overall win for us, especially since Baidicheng and Blazing Hot Lips gave us first dibs on the loot on the battlefield. Neither girls were willing to mistreat their ally.

”It’s over…” I exhaled.

”Yes, it’s over!”

Hot Sour Noodles, the guild leader of Righteousness appeared out of nowhere and gave me a smile. ”The CGL committee has decided to burn the midnight oil and tally the points tonight. We will be releasing the new ranking on Heavenblessed’s official website tomorrow at 9 am sharp. Do look forward to it, Lu Chen!”

”Mn, got it. Thanks for your hard work, Mr. Hot Sour Noodles.”

”Hahaha…”

The man left just like that.
