Chapter 360: Chapter 360
Five days later, Xi Qianxue’s message finally arrived. It seemed they had been waiting for others to reach Level 10.
Although five days wasn’t a long time, it was long enough to go through one Derived World.
"Finally, if we had to wait longer, I wouldn’t have been able to resist going to another world," Du You sighed, not wanting to spend his days idle at home.
Unlike others in this world who were afraid of entering the Other World or found it tiring, Du You thought the most interesting thing after coming to this world was entering the Other World.
In Du You’s eyes, getting into the Other World was akin to playing video games in his past life. His current life’s games may have been of higher quality, but to him, they lost their meaning. On the contrary, exploring other worlds and enhancing his strength appealed to him more. Perhaps it was because something hard to get was desired more.
No one could gain power in the previous life. Now that he had the chance, he dived in and didn’t want to come out.
Taking an autonomous vehicle, Du You rapidly arrived at school. But he didn’t enter the campus. Instead, he rented a little courtyard nearby, which had been rented by Xi Qianxue.
After all, they needed to use world coordinates, not the World Boat of their school. Doing such a thing away from the school and other people was quite necessary.
"Alright, everyone’s here. We can start. Du You, you can be the team leader this time."
Xi Qianxue handed over the Temporary Team Scroll to everyone. Du You became the leader, so they just had to follow him. Du You didn’t mind. The so-called leader wasn’t of significant importance anyway.
Broken lance: World coordinates, can enter Nordland Domination world (1/1)
After showing the world coordinates to Xi Qianxue and others, Du You initiated the access. The broken lance transformed into a white vortex and instantly disassembled, it was a disposable item after all.
User has previously visited this world, would you like to continue from the previous progress?
Without hestitation, Du You chose ’yes’. The setup from the last visit was in preparation for this return.
Under the effect of the white vortex, everyone was transformed into Spirit Energy Particles. When they reappeared, they had already reached the familiar Border City.
However, Border City now appeared more destroyed than before, with signs of battles everywhere. If one were to look at the city walls, they would notice even more battle injuries there.
There were constant arrivals and departures, creating a much more somber atmosphere than before. At first glance, Border City was completely different to their last visit.
"Everyone’s power level has increased a lot," Lan Xiaodie exclaimed as she watched their surroundings.
The last time they were here, the soldiers’ levels weren’t high. They were either Level 1 or 2, with many without a level at all. But looking at the soldiers now, even the logistics soldiers were at least Level 2. Regular troops were at minimum Level 5 or 6.
If the soldiers were at this level, then it was needless to say for the others. Du You remembered the last time they were here, the city’s head officer was only at Level 6 or 7.
"Great, you’re finally back. Quick, there’s an operational meeting soon. The City Lord expects your presence."
As soon as they arrived, someone led them to the City Lord’s Mansion.
Without changing expression, Du You followed, while simultaneously opening his panel.
Main mission: City Border Leader, guide a minor local fight to victory.
Advanced mission: Change the situation; alter the status quo of the balanced three-side fight in Nordland. The larger the change, the better the progress result. During the advanced mission, you won’t be able to take on other tasks.
It was the same as last time, only two missions with one being the main mission. After completing the advanced mission, there wouldn’t be a chest, as it was designed for advancement.
After a quick overview, they arrived at the City Lord’s Mansion. Du You noticed the Mansion was different from the past. "The Mansion is damaged. Looks like it has experienced battle."
Xi Qianxue nodded, "Previously, there were only four guards. Now, there are sixteen apparent guards with many more hidden. It seems Border City and Wood Shield City have openly become enemies."
Xi Qianxue was very knowledgeable about the situation in this world and had already prepared all the necessary information.
"Beastman City has always held a defensive stance. In the early stages, they kept sending Half-Beastmen to harass Border City while Wood Shield City provided backing. But later, this scenario reversed. Beastman City provided support to Wood Shield City which had openly become enemies with Border City, ultimately leading to a major battle."
"The original outcome was the mutual defeat of Wood Shield City and Border City. In the end, the empires at the back forced the two cities to join forces against the Beastmen. By that time, the Beastmen had become powerful. Our goal is to change this situation. It’s our major victory if any of the three cities is defeated."
"Yes, if we want to maintain our star level, we’ll have to give it our best," Du You said.
However, what Du You referred to as ’star level’ and what Xi Qianxue understood weren’t the same. Xi Qianxue was at 7 stars, and it was very difficult to advance further. But Du You was at 10 stars, and even maintaining it was challenging.
Having tasted the sweetness of high star levels, who would want their levels to drop? Perhaps only the genuinely hopeless would.
"Good, you’re finally here. You did a great job with your mission. Take a seat. Du You, you’ve resolved your curse, right? We need your power now," the City Lord greeted them.
As for what mission was completed, no one knew. Xi Qianxue just nodded slightly. This was just to forward the storyline. As for Du You, he remembered the curse he was under when he left last time.
Du You scanned the room and found that both the City Lord and General Luo Ha had reached Level 10. The three other Level 10 warriors might be the other generals. There were also two Level 10 mages. The most update n0vels are published on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Mages, which hadn’t appeared earlier, finally made their appearance now. Judging by their appearances, they were all combat types. Sitting solemnly, they only glanced at Du You and Xi Qianxue and nodded slightly. It seemed that the identity of a mage was still respected by them.
"Everyone is here, so I’ll talk about the current situation. Wood Shield City has brazenly attacked us, and although we’ve suffered losses, we can’t lose our momentum. I’m planning to declare war on Wood Shield City," the City Lord announced.
