Chapter 339 Unexpected Reverse
Xiao Ayin was the assistant leader of the Glory Club.
She had made it to the top three in the Popularity star contest during the 'Gods' professional league. Not only was she pretty, but she also had a good figure.
She was rich. Not to mention, she was also skilled in combat.
All this made her an outstanding female player.
Her suitors could form a long line stretching from the south of the city to the Cliff of Dawn.
Xiao Ayin had a lot of admirers, and whoever wanted to woo Xiao Ayin, had to be approved by them.
The gift 'What Can You Do Against Me' gave to her was way too lavish!
Limited edition Dawn Cards!
He gave her more than 90 cards, which included various rare cards and William's card. Those cards were priceless!
Taking into account the value of the gift, Xiao Ayin's admirers didn't have anything to rebuke.
Xiao Ayin felt rather awkward. She wanted to reject the gift. "Sorry! The rules of the Glory Club state that we can't accept expensive gifts from fans. You—"
"I'm not a bad person, and I'm not a fan either. I just want you to remember my name!" What Can You Do Against Me interrupted.
The look in his eyes showed his determination to woo her. Finished with his actions, he then confidently made his way out of the crowd of spectators and left.
"Gosh, what a smart move! It doesn't give Xiao Ayin any space to refuse."
"Tsk tsk! He had really thought this through. What an impressive plan!"
"What a good way to make someone remember your ID! It's a pity that unlike him, I don't have so much money." A player named 'Poor Bloke' shook his head in sadness.
Another player named 'Bai Xiaosheng', who was standing beside 'Poor Bloke', suddenly said, "Actually, there's another way to make your crush remember your ID."
"What is it?"
Bai Xiaosheng grinned. "Slash her, and decrease her Health Points. She will definitely remember your ID. This will save you a lot of money as long as you're thick-skinned enough."
"…" Everyone was speechless at this awful idea.
Many female players rolled their eyes.
Sometimes, things in reality seemed more illogical than they were in fiction novels.
The male players could do things in this game world that they didn't dare to in real life. For example, what happened next…
"Xiao Ayin, what does the William card look like? Quick, show us!" Someone said.
Xiao Ayin was still a little dazed. She had been rather touched, and even thought of becoming friends with What Can You Do Against Me.
It was only now that she looked at the cards in her hands. However, just as she was about to announce William's statistics on the card, she knitted her eyebrows.
Subsequently, Xiao Ayin threw the William card on the ground with a fierce gaze and a dark expression.
Everyone was shocked.
What was going on now?
Even if she had no way of returning the cards to 'What Can You Do Against Me' as he had run away, she didn't have to throw such a valuable card on the ground like that.
Being the nearest to her, Lucky Dream picked it up. But he narrowed his eyes and gasped in surprise.
There was a sticker pasted on the card!
He tore it off, revealing how the 'William card' really looked like.
Everyone opened their eyes wide. "Damn!"
"It's just a normal card…"
Subsequently, Xiao Ayin threw all of the cards on the ground. The other players picked them up out of curiosity.
They discovered that all of those cards were normal cards. Most of them were even repeated!
These cards had a worth of less than 3000 gold coins…
Both sides of these cards had been covered with stickers.
As for those stickers, no one knew where What Can You Do Against Me got them from. Perhaps he had used a magic tool.
While everyone was still in shock over how sly What Can You Do Against Me was, a player suddenly exclaimed, "Look at the forum, What Can You Do Against Me has posted something!"
"Gosh!"
"What the h*ll!…"
"D*mn!"
The title of the post was [Sorry, Xiao Ayin! After contemplating for a while, I decided to exchange the Legendary manual equipment and manual for myself.]
"Who's envious of my Legendary equipment and manual rewards?
"Xiao Ayin, I know you don't like me. But, I really really like you. I want you to remember my name forever.
"The cards cannot be reused as they would be marked with magic imprints after they have been exchanged. Nonetheless, I will sell the William card at a high price tomorrow. Interested players, take note of this!
"Xiao Ayin, I've been pondering over this for a long time. I like you, but I guess I like the game more…
"Oh right, you guys can look at the following statistics on Prince William."
[Attained fourth place in the Southern region Magic Conference]
[Suspected to be the reincarnation of Thunder God]
[Challenged an opponent of a higher level and defeated the Viscount of Darkness]
A picture of William's card was attached, with the rank 'Grandmaster' written beside it.
"What the h*ll is a Magic Conference?"
"Isn't it embarrassing to write that he attained only the fourth place…"
"The reincarnation of Thunder God, this title sounds pretty awesome. However, even if he specializes in the thunder element, Prince William doesn't resemble the Thunder God, at all. I think the title 'Electric Spark' suits him better."
"Who the h*ll is the Viscount of Darkness anyway?"
In essence, the information about William didn't intimidate the players in any way.
They were more curious and interested in what 'What Can You Do Against Me' had done earlier on.
Nonetheless, William didn't care. In the future, the players would know how strong he had become.
He had sensed that something wasn't right when he saw the direction What Can You Do Against Me was running toward. The player was dashing to the redemption booth!
In the end, What Can You Do Against Me was the lucky guy who had collected all 100 cards.
"Ah! What Can You Do Against Me, I'll get back at you!
"I'm going to kill him now! Who's coming? I'm going to strip him of his equipment. I'll kill him 10,000 times. I'm going to make him downgrade until he reaches level 0!" Xiao Ayin flew into a rage and made threatening gestures. She was about to chase after What Can You Do Against Me.
Chu Liuqiu and the others stopped her, covered her mouth, and tried to quickly pull her away.
After all, her angry rant was affecting her image as a professional player, and the other clubs might take this chance to ruin her image.
However, the other players weren't upset or irked by the rant. They could empathize with her emotional roller-coaster ride.
Suddenly, something even more unexpected happened.
Just as Xiao Ayin was about to be pulled away by her teammates, Forever Alone suddenly ran over. "Ayin, Ayin, don't be mad. I have a gift for you."
"Huh???"
The other players were confused seeing the appearance of the leader of the Prosperity Millennium Club.
But then again, why was the leader of the Prosperity Millennium Club acting all chummy with Xiao Ayin?
Forever Alone flashed a mysterious smile. He took out a gleaming longsword, which was engraved with ornate runes, from his space ring and casually gave it to Xiao Ayin.
Xiao Ayin looked at the Advanced Legendary longsword in her hands, which increased her confusion.
Forever Alone laughed, "When I was looking at the post on the forum just now, I happened to chance upon What Can You Do Against Me.
"He hadn't kept the longsword in his space ring and was happily admiring it in his hands.
"I killed him on the spot, and it just so happened that I picked up his Legendary longsword.
"It's a pity that I wasn't able to get the Legendary manual…
"If I remember correctly, you're a metal element professional, right?
"He's a metal element professional too, which makes the weapon a perfect match for you. It's just that the blade is a little too long for Shield-Bearers."
"Why are you giving this to me?" After what happened just now, Xiao Ayin had become alert. She didn't dare to believe in these bastard players now.
Before Forever Alone had a chance to speak, Chu Liuqiu came forth with a dark expression and tugged at his arm.
"Brother, can you pay attention to your image when you're trying to poach players? You should know when to stop?
"Even if you don't want to use this Advanced Legendary weapon, can't you give it to other members of your club?" Chu Liuqiu said in a low voice.
Although Forever Alone was being pushed away by Chu Liuqiu, he didn't give up and shouted, "Xiao Ayin, you can come and take a look at the Prosperity Millennium Club when you're free. I can give you the team leader position and be the assistant leader myself!
"Chu Liuqiu is already a middle-aged man, yet he is still hogging the position of team leader. How despicable of him! He doesn't consider your feelings at all."
"What the h*ll! You scum, still trying to sow discord?"
A chaotic fight commenced.
The old team leaders of the two clubs started a new round of competition.
The clubs had been competing against one another since a long time ago, whether in secret or in the open.
The ordinary and the rich players valued Legendary equipment and manuals.
However, the professional players didn't view those to be too important.
They had support from their subsidiary guilds. Players who were their friends would sponsor them to become stronger.
They could buy contribution points at a low price. They could redeem a Legendary manual or a piece of suitable equipment from the Dawn Mercenary Team exchange list.
Clubs paid more attention to professionals who were skilled, obedient, and had a good mindset.
For example, professional players like Xiao Ayin were what Forever Alone was looking for.
Players often had drama going on that was interesting to watch.
Unrest broke out among the players on the first day of Version 3.0.
Although William was enjoying the drama, it was time for him to sum things up.
By this time, most players had redeemed or sold their cards. They roughly understood the changes that had occurred in the City of Dawn.
A new mission popped up in the players' information panel.
[The Chosen One: Millions of chosen ones have appeared in the Legendary continent. However, who is THE Chosen One? Want to prove your strength? Want to become the real and the only Chosen One?]
[Mission Introduction: When 1 million chosen ones have reached the Advanced level in the Legendary continent, the City of Dawn will hold the first conference to determine who is 'The Chosen One'.]
[Mission Level: S]
[Mission Reward: Affinity with the City of Dawn +300, affinity with William Blackleaf +100]
[Mission Reward: A set of Advanced Legendary equipment that corresponds to your attribute]
[Mission Reward: 2 million experience points]
[Mission Reward: Title of 'The Chosen One']
[Optional Mission Reward: Position of a core member in the Dawn Mercenary Team]
When this mission appeared, all the players in the City of Dawn fell silent.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
This bold mission had extremely generous rewards!
One could participate in this mission regardless of whether he was a player from the City of Dawn or not.
Even if the players from other Camps won, they could leave with their rewards freely as they weren't required to join the City of Dawn Camp.
However, how many players could this bold mission attract to join the City of Dawn Camp?
"Version 3.0, a version where I'm going to show the City of Dawn's wealth. I'm going to establish that the City of Dawn is the ultimate paradise for players." William mumbled.
"I'm going to show my love for the players.
"Want to become stronger? Want to become 'The Chosen One', a remarkable and formidable existence?
"Pay up to level up!
"The City of Dawn has prepared countless good stuff for you!
"Use your experience points and gold coins to redeem them!"
