Chapter 293

The legion members holding fast at the mission-review posts were swamped, and as the members got ready, the endless stream of mission reviews had them running ragged.

"Chief, when does this grind ever end? Send me to the front line, will you?"

"Right, right—why does it have to be our turn today?"

"This is so unfair. Running missions out there would be awesome."

"…"

The chief in charge of mission review wore a solemn expression all over his face. Sweeping his gaze around, he said, "The legion has its rules. Since it's your turn today, do the job properly, or don't blame me for not going easy on you!"

The surrounding members of the Savage God Legion paid him no heed at all, and instead burst out laughing.

"Here we go again, here we go again—go on, punish me, let's head to the martial arena and have a proper fight."

"Yeah, yeah, it's been ages since I fought the chief; my hands are already itching."

"I bet one yuan the chief's getting beaten up again today."

"Ah, this… I bet two!"

"…"

The scene was in an uproar; the busy work hadn't dampened their spirits one bit.

The chief in charge of mission review shook his head, paid no attention to their idle chatter, and instead spoke with a solemn expression: "Once we get through the East Sea beast tide, you can do whatever you want. But remember one thing—there must not be the slightest error in the review."

"There's one more thing!"

"Keep a close eye on legion member Savage Bear Luo Chenyu. This is an order straight from the boss. If any of you slack off in the slightest, the boss will personally step onto the arena, and don't say I didn't warn you."

At these words, every member fell dead silent.

The Savage God himself stepping onto the arena?

Damn…

That'd be nothing but walking onto the arena to get beaten!

In an instant!

All the members had already thrown themselves into work, and even… the big screen was displaying Luo Chenyu's current record.

However…

To their surprise, before the beast tide had even arrived, Luo Chenyu's kill points had already begun to skyrocket.

"What's going on?"

The members were baffled. "You only get points for killing sea beasts. The beast tide hasn't even reached us yet—how has he already started?"

The chief frowned slightly. "Could it be… he's already set out ahead of time, into the depths of the East Sea?"

"That can't be right, can it?"

"When the beast tide hits, all the sea beasts start gathering. There isn't a single lone sea monster left near the shore. Does that mean… he's charging into the beast tide all by himself?"

"Impossible. That is absolutely impossible!"

"Whatever it is, log it down first. I'll go review it personally when the time comes."

The chief shook his head and did not continue to pay them any attention.

………………

As the sea monsters of the East Sea beast tide kept massing, beyond the East Sea's high wall, countless professionals had already gathered.

No matter how strong those professionals were.

Under the unified arrangements of Mirage City High Command, they all began to stand ready, forming team after team to await the beast tide's arrival..

And these…

Were nothing more than meant to hold back those early-stage sea monsters!

"I'm so nervous. I heard this beast tide is on an unprecedented scale—almost every sea beast in the area is gathering. Can we really hold them?"

"Even if we can't hold them, we have to. Behind us is the home we live in. Our loved ones are waiting for us to come home!"

"It's a shame my strength isn't up to par. I can only hold the front lines; against the high-level sea monsters, I have no power to fight back at all."

"Any priests with heavy healing? Our squad has a mage and a berserker blade—our damage output is top-notch!"

"Five-mage squad, looking for a tank or a paladin!!"

"Our squad is short one too—come on, any tanks…"

"You're joking, right? In a large-scale battle like this, tanks are insanely scarce. Getting even one paladin for you would be doing pretty well."

"Speaking of tanks, God Luo is supposedly just a regular tank… I heard his principal is still out there buying him a class-change scroll for an SSS-rank hidden tank class…"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk… what era is this—who would still put an SSS-rank hidden class up for sale!"

"If I could get a B-rank hidden class, that'd be great. Joining any major guild then, what resource wouldn't I have?"

"Honestly, I still can't wrap my head around the fact that God Luo is a regular tank. We're both tanks—why is the gap between us so huge? 々｀!"

"So you're a person, and he's God Luo. Get it?"

………………

Before the high wall, there were many professionals, and the chatter never stopped.

But…

The southeast direction was noticeably quieter, because this was the special zone Mirage City High Command had set aside for the chosen few.

Besides the chosen few, many Gao Jie professionals stood guard on the side as well.

The purpose was to give these chosen few a relatively safe environment so they could level up quickly.

This was what was called privilege!

And Facing Ye Xingtong and the others were right in this zone.

If Luo Chenyu were here, he'd definitely be shocked: the two teammates he'd originally lined up were actually all here.

Ye Xingtong, Zhou Xiaoying!

Besides these, Yue Lingsu and the black-stockinged young lady Fang Yue!

Behind them were two unfamiliar faces—one wearing a white priest's robe, the other in black battle armor… without exception, both unfamiliar young ladies were rare beauties.

Not far from their group, Su Feng's face was full of envy.

But Su Feng didn't dare step forward at all—there was no other reason… that young lady in black battle armor was his own elder sister, Su Tuantuan, a fierce and powerful woman!

Within such a team.

The highest-level among them was Yue Lingsu, who had hurried over from Longshan City.

She was a level 69 Xuanlong Nation special class, the Armored Warrior—a class that combined offense and defense.

In fact, Yue Lingsu was also a college student, only she had already returned to Longshan City for her internship for over a year.

"The battle is about to begin—are you nervous?"

Yue Lingsu knew all these beautiful young ladies had been contacted by An Chen and Li Yunxi, and had formed a powerful team.

With her social skills honed from over a year of mingling in the Longsan trading market, she had easily "tamed" them.

Earning the title of "Big Sister."

This team's level gap was huge, but for people like them, that wasn't any problem at all.

"Experience Scrolls" were very easy for them to obtain.

After all… in this entire team, not a single one of them had a simple family background.

Ye Xingtong glanced calmly at Yue Lingsu and said flatly, "Whether Sister Yue is nervous or not is no longer important, isn't it?"

Yue Lingsu naturally knew that this girl in front of her—Luo Chenyu's official girlfriend—had a cold personality, but that wasn't a problem for her.

After interning for over a year, what kind of person hadn't she seen?

"What Sister Xingtong says is right, but… this is the sisters' first time cooperating. If we're too nervous, some unnecessary trouble is bound to crop up."

Ye Xingtong smiled slightly, her coldness vanishing, and said confidently, "Sister Yue, as long as you block the sea beasts, the damage output can be left to me and Sister Su!"

"That definitely won't be a problem. Although my sister's defense isn't as good as little brother Luo's, if those sea monsters want to hurt you, they'll have to step over my sister's corpse first!"

"Sister Yue, you put it too heavily…"

At this moment, Su Tuantuan laughed and said, "Don't forget, I'm also melee—I can share the pressure with Sister Yue!"

"Besides… don't underestimate little Sister Zhang's healing output!"

Little Sister Zhang was that priest girl.

Hearing Su Tuantuan's words, her cheeks immediately flushed red, and she lowered her head and said softly, "I'm not that amazing!"

"Hehe, Sister Ruoyu is shy again."

Zhou Xiaoying and Fang Yue exchanged a glance and both began teasing the priest girl.

The team's atmosphere was great.

So many beautiful young ladies truly made the hot-blooded young geniuses around them stir with excitement…
