Chapter 1005: Peacemaker Style

~7 min read 1,304 words

…

Swish~

Gu Qingcheng, who had revived in the square, looked at the coarse clothes on her body, couldn't help gritting her teeth, and her mage robe burst apart.

Although she was just a game character, her simple undergarments almost fully showed off Gu Cheng's impressive figure, plus her captivating face and a hint of anger.

This directly caused a group of male players around the square to stare dumbfounded…

Seeing this, Gu Qingcheng gave those male players a sideways glance, then pulled out a spare mage robe and put it on again.

Damn it!

That guy Mo Wen Qianchen really doesn't know how to cherish and protect beauty at all.

Just now, his pitiful appearance was completely useless in front of Mo Wen Qianchen. He ruthlessly stabbed himself in the chest with the spear in his hand without hesitation.

He's truly a clueless oaf!

I mean, that guy isn't interested in women; after all, in terms of looks, Gu Qingcheng believes she doesn't lose to any celebrity, and even surpasses them.

Otherwise, as the current top dog in the gaming world, Teng Long Company wouldn't have skipped hiring those celebrities and instead chosen her, Gu Qingcheng, as the game's image ambassador.

At the same time she also feels some regret, but her regret isn't about this conflict with Yanhuang; it's that the Dream Building Squad didn't directly move to wipe them out.

However, at this moment, players from the earlier Thousand-Person Team kept appearing around Gu Qingcheng.

Huh?

Gu Qingcheng was somewhat taken aback; although he had been killed by Mo Wen Qianchen's targeting, there should still have been over 500 players left there, yet almost all of them appeared in the square at nearly the same time.

Could it be that Mo Wen Qianchen has some big move that directly sent them all back?

"Deputy President, we returned to the city ourselves. Mo Wen Qianchen didn't exterminate us completely; instead, he let the remaining players use their own Return City Scrolls to come back, which can be considered because we didn't go all out to kill them at the start."

One of them spoke up at this time.

"Hmph~ Who wants him to play the do-gooder?!" Gu Qingcheng gritted her teeth.

"They're just a small squad; how could they send you all back without any cost? You're a bunch of country bumpkins!"

Gu Qingcheng knew they definitely couldn't kill Mo Wen Qianchen, but to completely wipe out the Primordial forces on the field, Yanhuang's side couldn't suffer zero casualties.

But at this moment, one of the squad leaders couldn't help but wryly smile: "Deputy President Qingcheng, just after you were resurrected, Yanhuang's reinforcements arrived—a squad of 500 Lion Knights surrounded us. Judging by their earlier combat performance, a single charge could very well send us back unscathed."

Hearing this, Gu Qingcheng gritted her teeth: "So what? You guys won't even put up a fight, will you?"

Meanwhile, the over 500 Primordial players who had returned using Return City Scrolls exchanged glances, remaining silent.

Everyone knew Gu Qingcheng was furious, so no one dared to provoke her, but they were all quite relieved, after all, leveling up now is no easy feat.

Just then, a message arrived in Gu Qingcheng's private chat.

Gu Qingcheng opened the message, looked at it, finally gritted her teeth, and waved her hand: "Come on, let's go level up!"

The mission had failed, there was no need to turn back, and besides, the Chairman had also sent a message just now…

…

"Haha, I pretty much know what's going on with Chairman Mo Wen's feelings; after all, it's just game competition, so it's hard to say who's right or wrong."

Su Sheng looked at the message from Daozu in the private chat, curled the corner of his mouth, this old guy reacts pretty quickly.

"Then I don't know what Chairman Daozu means."

Su Sheng replied.

"Our sides don't really have any grudges; how about we write this off? Your mission failed, and we've also suffered considerable losses."

Daozu continued to send messages.

Su Sheng wasn't surprised by this; the Primordial faction has always acted as peacemakers, and among the former top ten guilds, he hardly got along with any of them, nor did he offend them.

"On my end there's naturally no problem, but Chairman Daozu, you need to persuade your image ambassador; I estimate she'll hold a grudge."

Su Sheng naturally didn't care; although he wasn't afraid of the Primordial faction, there was no need to make enemies for no reason.

Moreover, speaking of which, they actually haven't suffered any major losses on their side; the initial Dream Building Squad mission's reward was just average.

If that mission failed, it failed; there's nothing to regret about it.

At least from Zhu Meng Junjie's own perspective, that's how he feels; after all, as an Innate Mission Holy Body, he's undertaken countless missions, and failures are not few.

Meanwhile, Lu Zhe's mission hasn't failed yet; he just needs to push down that boss within three hours.

Chen Guan stepped out beside him, smiling as he looked at Su Sheng: "Brother Su, it feels like you don't even need to call us over."

Watching Su Sheng display his might, he brought a small squad and completely suppressed the Primordial Thousand-Person Team, Chen Guan grinning broadly.

"If you don't come in time, those remaining folks won't obediently return to the city. Time is limited; Xiao Zhe's mission still needs to be rushed. Since you're all here, help clear out this stronghold, then team up to push the boss."

Su Sheng grinned; since everyone's here, we might as well not make the trip for nothing—let's get something done.

Moreover, Lu Zhe's mission now has only a little over two hours left, and we still don't know how tough that boss is!

After all, it's a task released with the stage; I believe it shouldn't be too easy to beat.

After helping Lu Zhe finish his mission, Su Sheng still plans to undertake his own trial mission.

"Alright!"

Chen Guan nodded in reply.

The hostile NPCs in this stronghold are just ordinary monsters of level 65, with a small portion being elite monsters of level 67.

And Lu Zhe's mission boss is a level 70 elite boss.

For those present, these monsters are hardly any difficulty at all.

Thus, in just a short hour, they swept through everything directly.

That level 70 elite boss, if it were really only Lu Zhe and the Dream Building Squad, would probably still be a bit troublesome.

Because that boss actually belongs to a hero unit!

The only named hero unit, even with the arrival of a Yanhuang Thousand-Person Team, otherwise they truly couldn't have taken it down within Lu Zhe's mission time.

Sure enough, these stage-based tasks aren't too simple either.

Still, it's more comfortable than Su Sheng's ring; at least Lu Zhe's Asura Ring has a fixed direction for collecting.

As for oneself, one can only rely on luck, with no direction at all.

Seeing the task completed, Lu Zhe, his face full of excitement, Su Sheng really felt a bit envious.

Afterwards, everyone dispersed, and Su Sheng naturally rewarded a sum of guild contributions.

However, just before leaving, Su Sheng overheard a conversation, leaving him speechless.

Damn, with these points in hand, I'm just a bit away from exchanging for the equipment I've had my eye on—what should I do?

Tsk… brother, you forgot? The permanent bounty posted by the Chairman earlier.

Eh? That unlucky guy hasn't quit the game yet?

What about you—are you willing to quit the game??

Just delete the character and start over—it's only a month's wait, right? Better than us always treating you like an ATM. Forget it, never mind, anyway I'm going to withdraw a sum. (Chapter 767)
