Chapter 531: Chapter 531

Countdown to [National War] launch: 6 days 14:46:12

When the official countdown to the [National War] was announced, the eyes of all the world’s gamers were drawn to this news.

As some players said:

"Now, before logging into the game, you first check the game’s forum to see how much time is left until it opens."

Every minute and second now feels like torture to these players.

Among them, players from the He Clan and Goryeo are particularly enthusiastic.

It’s unclear whether they are blindly confident;

because the taunting of the Hua Country War Zone never stops on their game forums.

Currently, the hottest topic on these two game forums is how to take down the Border City of the Hua Country War Zone once the [National War] begins.

Some even consider joining forces to take action against the Hua Country War Zone to avenge past insults from Feng Hua. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ N()velFire.net

Naturally, players from the Hua Country War Zone respond with scorn and are not afraid in the slightest.

The two sides have even started a ’bloody’ verbal battle online.

Perhaps the only person not concerned about the [National War] is Lin Yi, the leading player in the Hua Country War Zone.

At this moment, Lin Yi is still leading Tian Ci and others in White Tiger City’s Snowy Mountains, grinding monsters to level up.

Shuai Diao Zha instinctively throws skills at monster groups while complaining:

"This grinding is making me want to puke, my god."

Tian Ci uses a dagger to harvest the life of a Snow Elf Lv49, scoffing:

"You have the nerve to complain when you’re just standing there throwing skills all day, I could run my legs off!"

Red Eyes chuckles nearby:

"To be honest, I can now sense their arteries with my eyes shut and take them down with one move."

Xiao He laughs heartily, swinging a chain:

"I actually think it’s fine!"

"After months of practice, I feel my combat techniques have improved a lot."

But just as Xiao He finished speaking, Shuai Diao Zha and Tian Ci shouted in unison:

"Shut up, you bootlicker."

Zhan Chen watched their antics with a helpless smile but continued to unleash skills on the Snow Elf Lv49 without pause.

The most relaxed in this leveling frenzy has to be Zhang Xinying.

With the damage from these small monsters, Zhang Xinying rarely even gets a chance to act.

Even Shuai Diao Zha, the fragile Mage, can lure three or four small monsters to playfully swing his magic staff at them.

After all, these players are equipped with the top gear from the Hua Country War Zone, making fighting small monsters feel like overkill.

The only role Zhang Xinying has is to occasionally buff everyone.

The rest of the time is spent with Wang Zixin, the little girl, building all sorts of snowmen on the side.

If any player passing by saw this scene, they’d think they had come upon an ice sculpture exhibit.

Besides Zhang Xinying, the most relaxed has to be Dongfang Jing.

This mysterious woman often stands on the snowy mountain peak in a daze, occasionally joining in the battle to throw a few skills.

Each time Dongfang Jing stepped in to fight, Tian Ci and others felt greatly blessed and cheered excitedly.

After more than two months of continuous grinding, Lin Yi now has the highest level at 49, with over 40% experience.

The lowest is Dongfang Jing at level 46, while others are between levels 47 and 48.

This recent level-up frenzy not only brought Lin Yi back to the top of the long-missed level leaderboard.

The others also made strong entries into the top twenty, with six taking spots in the top ten, shocking other players who cried out: Freaks.

According to Lin Yi, getting everyone to level 50 would take at least another half a month.

Lin Yi usually ignores the team’s complaints, which everyone has grown accustomed to.

Though there are complaints, it’s more about finding something to talk about during the boring leveling craps.

Otherwise, most people couldn’t endure repeating the same actions for months without going crazy.

But this time, Lin Yi surprisingly responded to their grievances:

"How about we find something to relax?"

Lin Yi’s words brightened everyone’s eyes, Tian Ci was the most excited:

"My god, I’ve been waiting for you to say this for nearly a hundred days and nights!"

Shuai Diao Zha was equally excited:

"I know a great club in Binhai City, the technicians there..."

Shuai Diao Zha looked puzzled at Tian Ci:

"Why, have a better recommendation?"

Tian Ci frantically winked at him, while Zhang Xinying, with a look ready to devour, amusingly said:

"Which club are you talking about? Tell me, I might know it."

Shuai Diao Zha froze, laughing nervously:

"I was just making stuff up, I don’t know any clubs!"

"I’m so naive, I don’t even know what the Purple Gold Club is."

Seeing Shuai Diao Zha looking embarrassed, Zhang Xinying shot a glance at Lin Yi:

"You planning some relaxation activity, Feng Hua? Mind if I join?"

Lin Yi chuckled, somewhat helplessly:

"It was a misunderstanding on their part, nothing to do with me!"

He couldn’t understand how a casual comment backfired on him.

Shuai Diao Zha quickly found a way out, nodding frantically:

"Yes, yes, it was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."

Hearing this, Zhang Xinying discontentedly glared at Shuai Diao Zha: "Hmph!" then returned to playing with the snow.

"After the [National War] starts, there’s a quest on the Western Continent, I plan to take the opportunity to do it and let everyone relax."

"On the Western Continent?"

The group was a bit surprised, Tian Ci curiously asked:

"What quest is it? Why is it on the Western Continent?"

Lin Yi then introduced the mysterious quest scroll: [Dragon Island Entrance] he obtained after completing the Cyclops Race quest.

Due to the task coordinates being on the Western Continent, it had been shelved.

Now, with the [National War] launching, Lin Yi plans to undertake it.

In truth, Lin Yi is very curious about the mystery hidden in the most enigmatic and powerful of the Hundred Races: the Dragon Race.

Before, Shuai Diao Zha asked what the dragon egg from the [Giant Dragon Nest] instance was for, and Lin Yi saying it was a ’stone’ wasn’t wrong.

Even if players obtained the dragon egg, they couldn’t hatch it.

Due to the precondition for hatching a dragon egg, which must occur on Dragon Island.

In the game’s first three years, no one knew where Dragon Island was, and dragons remained a mysterious race to the players back then.

Finding a dragon egg but unable to hatch it, isn’t it just like having a stone?

Given the opportunity in this lifetime, Lin Yi naturally wants to meet this mysterious race at the forefront of the Hundred Races: the Dragon Race!
