Chapter 328: Chapter 328
The Gourd Island Battle consisted of two large forces, something they knew prior to their arrival. The forces were essentially divided by skin color into white people and black people.
Of course, these weren’t actual white people and black people; it was purely due to differing living environments.
The white people lived in the south where the forests were lush, and their dwelling environments were tree and ground holes, hence their skin was fairer, similar to modern humans, if not whiter.
Meanwhile, the black people lived in the north where vegetation was sparser, and they liked sunbathing, sunburning themselves to a pitch-black hue. Categorizing races by skin color was a first for Du You.
On such a small island, no bigger than a city, it was certainly dominated by one race.
Looking around, quite a number of people had a Flame Attribute in their attacks. Du You dared not use Mucus Swamp here in case it was ignited. Then it wouldn’t matter who got poisoned.
Du You decisively chose his wide-range attack magic, the Holy Light Arrow Array. With a point of his finger, a large number of Holy Light Arrows flew out. However, he didn’t use the Spell Splitting Skill, only relied on a singular one.
Even so, it was a barrage of 90 arrows at once, giving off an overwhelming feel. The weaker opponents were severely injured or outright killed, suffering heavy casualties in an instant. This type of attack was far more powerful than the Ice Crystal unleashed by Xi Qianxue. After all, this was a level 9, 10-star skill.
"So powerful, worthy of our top student. The skill is indeed formidable."
Baobao’s comment immediately drew the attention of many. Everyone in this class would consider themselves no less than others. They had heard that this year’s top student had an intimidatingly high score, but didn’t know who it was.
Nor did they know which school the top student would attend. Although Capital University was the best, it wasn’t necessarily the most suitable.
Unexpectedly, this legendary figure appeared among them. Despite this, they remained defiant. Those who were good at attacks unleashed continuous strikes, creating a rampage that was no less destructive than Du You’s. After the attack, they even looked at Du You provocatively.
Xi Qianxue’s beautiful eyes sparkled with understanding. She knew just how powerful the Holy Light Arrow Array skill was, as she had taught it to Du You.
She hadn’t expected Du You to evolve the skill to this extent, much stronger than what was originally recorded on the scroll. Hence, this skill wasn’t something Du You could naturally learn; he likely used Crystal Coins to forcefully enhance this skill. On one hand, it showed that Du You was effective in collecting Crystal Coins.
Also, Du You’s star-level was probably higher than hers. She initially thought Du You was a 7-star, but considering his high scores, he was definitely an 8-star.
As for a 9-star, Xi Qianxue didn’t even consider that. That was a level of legend and it only appeared once in the records.
"Hmph, that miserly man, he actually lied to me." Upon recalling Du You’s declared star-level, Xi Qianxue immediately felt that Du You had deceived her.
After all that cheering, Baobao rushed up and started punching and kicking a black person.
His fists were tightly clenched, black flames burning on top of them. Seemingly highly adhesive, even after people were knocked away, the black flames burned wildly on their bodies.
The black people who were burned rolled frantically on the ground and soon lost all life.
Baobao’s fighting style looked incredibly volatile and crazy. His body could stretch and morph to some extent, much like rubber clay. Black people who were unfamiliar with this felt extremely odd.
With the advent of this new force, the previously evenly matched black people quickly felt their power waning. The leader shouted a signal, and everyone retreated quickly. In the blink of an eye, they vanished into the dense forest.
They were quickly surrounded by the white people. "Which faction are you from, why haven’t we seen you before?" a middle-aged white man, with a row of feathers on his head, loudly asked. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝕟𝕖𝕥
This attire looked very primitive. But at the same time, with such a small land, there wasn’t much cultural evolution.
"We’ve been living by the sea, that’s why you don’t know us. Recently, the black people have become more rampant, so we thought to come and help." The increasing aggression of the black people was indeed true.
This was how the Derived World started, Zhang Yu stepped forward and said at some point.
"Alright, I believe you, but what about this person?" The leader pointed at Baobao, and the weapons in the hands of the people around them were suddenly pointed at Baobao, faces full of caution.
Baobao yelled loudly: "What are you looking at? I am a handsome red-skinned person, not some black person."
Well, it seemed to be about skin color. Although Baobao’s skin wasn’t white, it definitely wasn’t black either. But, no one had seen this color before and so were uncertain of his true identity.
Zhang Yu quickly said, "Gentlemen, don’t get excited. This is one of our own. When he was a child, he got sick and his skin turned this color ever since. Look, we’re all white people, we would certainly not lie."
The leader took a closer look at the people around and even though their attire was strange, they were completely different from the black people. There hadn’t been cases of disguises or spies in this world.
Everyone fought straightforwardly, seizing territories and killing opponents.
"Alright, I believe you, but you’ll have to come see our chieftain with me."
"Of course of course." Everyone nodded in agreement. Following them back, they finally had the time to open their panels.
World: Gourd Island Battle
Main Mission: Choose a camp, kill more than five people from the opposing camp. Completed.
Special mission: Unification, Assist either side in unifying Gourd Island within one month. Would you like to accept?
This was their goal, Du You accepted without hesitation. As soon as he did, the mission changed.
Special mission: Unification, accepted. During the mission period, no other types of missions can be accepted,
Du You startled. He couldn’t accept other types of missions, which mean neither hidden missions nor temporary missions could be accepted. No matter how well he did, he had no chance of obtaining a treasure chest.
The people around him were also discussing in the team channel, seeming surprised. This team channel was a new application of the panel. A team within a hundred meters of each other could engage in group chat.
