Chapter 1372: The March of Chaos



Chapter 1372: The March of Chaos

Ray of Sunshine looked up. The speaker was none other than the vice leader of Purgatory Mad Dragon and the man who had snatched the Ghost Armament, the Heaven Suppressing Necklace, from Candlelight Shadow, Warsky and even He Yi’s (debatable) hands, Roaming Dragon.

"What’s your business with me?" Ray of Sunshine asked indifferently.

Roaming Dragon chuckled. "I just want to speak with you is all. Now come! If you wish to defeat Dark Iron Sword, then make a deal with me! Otherwise, you may never be a match for him…"

Ray of Sunshine fell silent for a moment. Then, he fell in line with Roaming Dragon’s group.

……

Meanwhile, I was just telling the referee that I wouldn’t be fighting the next match and taking my leave when someone called out to me, "Wait, Brother Dark Iron Sword! I would like to speak with you about something!"

Goosebumps crawled all over my skin. When I turned around, I saw Wang Dongliang and Profound Puff catching up to me.

"What is it?" I asked.

Wang Dongliang smiled and spread his arms a little. "Your victory against Ray of Sunshine was most impressive, haha, and Purgatory Mad Dragon has never stopped thirsting for talent. In my capacity as the guild leader, I would like to invite you to join Purgatory Mad Dragon. If you do, I will make you a vice leader, and I will grant you a great gift!"

I hummed for a moment. "What is this gift exactly?"

"It is the Heaven Suppressing Necklace!"

I shuddered. "One of the 72 Ghost Armaments, the Heaven Suppressing Necklace? Wasn’t it sold for 200 million at the auction house?"

"That’s right!"

Wang Dongliang declared arrogantly, "No ordinary person can be allowed to wear the Heaven Suppressing Necklace, but I can see that you are far more skilled than Ray of Sunshine. You may even be skilled enough to challenge Warsky, Farewell Song, Candlelight Shadow and even Lu Chen himself. That is why we wish to invite you to join Purgatory Mad Dragon! Just sign a contract with us, and the Heaven Suppressing Necklace is yours! Naturally, you will also become an executive member of Purgatory Mad Dragon!"

I sucked in a deep breath before shaking my head, "Sorry, but I’m not interested. Goodbye."

"W-wait! What do you mean you’re not interested? At least tell us why! Why aren’t you willing to join us?" Wang Dongliang asked urgently.

I simply said, "Your guild name sounds terrible…"

Wang Dongliang: "..."

After I shook off Wang Dongliang’s hand, I rushed into the city, dashed into the nearest inn, and replaced my Master of Disguise Ring with the Apparition Ring once more. Then, I walked out and met up with Lin Yixin and He Yi. The two girls were bubbling with happiness ever since they made a killing from my match, and right now they were selling some equipment at one corner of the eastern square. There was even a mini traffic congestion around their stalls because everyone wanted to see the two prettiest women in Sky City.

……

I sat down beside Lin Yixin and set up my own stall. Then, I placed a couple of high-grade equipment in front of me.

He Yi shot me a glance and asked me, "Wang Dongliang tried to recruit you, huh?"

I nodded. "Yep. They can’t find me on the player list because Dark Iron Sword is a false identity, and thank god for that…"

Lin Yixin said, "Wang Dongliang was right about one thing though. After they’ve made an enemy out of their best player, they are absolutely thirsting for talent right now. Purgatory Mad Dragon needs to recruit a super player before Little Piglet returns to enact his vengeance. After the showdown between you and Ray of Sunshine, he and Roaming Dragon had immediately split ways to catch up to both you and Ray of Sunshine. You have to give them an A for effort at least…"

He Yi chuckled. "Of course they would want to recruit both Lu Chen and Ray of Sunshine. Lu Chen took out Ray of Sunshine without using a single skill, and Ray of Sunshine had revealed himself to be a perfect seed with all the skills a cavalryman would want to have. His style and technique are pretty good as well. His only weakness is his equipment right now, but otherwise, he’s destined to become a great expert."

I said, "Wang Dongliang and Roaming Dragon are trying to use the Heaven Suppressing Necklace to attract super experts to their guild right now. Obviously, they aren’t going to get anyone in the CGL Hall of Fame, but Ray of Sunshine? We already know the outcome."

Lin Yixin stuck out her tongue cutely. "If Ray of Sunshine had the Heaven Suppressing Necklace just now, you wouldn’t have been able to defeat him as easily as you did. 100% lifesteal is no joke after all…"

I shrugged. "Sure, but that is only if he can score a hit on me. Also, if I allow myself to use my skills, all I need to do is to land God Binding Art, then I can kill him however I want to. Of course, I’ll apply Chains of Freedom on him first so I can almost guarantee the Heaven Suppressing Necklace to drop…"

He Yi teased me. "You’re such a vulgar expert, you know that?"

Me: "..."

……

About 20 minutes later, a system announcement suddenly interrupted our chat—

Ding~!

System Announcement (Player "Wang Dongliang" Shout): Congratulations to player "Ray of Sunshine" for signing a 3-year contract with Purgatory Mad Dragon and becoming our core player[1]! With this, we have granted him the honor of wearing the Heaven Suppressing Necklace. We’ve also provided him with a set of metal armor: Winds of Purgatory Metal Armor (Level 220 Archean Immortal-grade), Skywater Wristguard (Level 215 Immortal-grade), Thundercrack Helmet (Level 210 Archean Immortal-grade), Fire Beacon War Boots (Level 220 Immortal-grade), and Etera Cape (Level 210 Immortal-grade)! I hope this proves that any skilled player who joins Purgatory Mad Dragon will be acknowledged and supported with all our might! Purgatory Mad Dragon, the Top 5 guild of the China Guild Ranking welcomes all players with a dream to join us!

……

I let out a sigh of admiration as I read up on the items listed on the system announcement, "God damn, Purgatory Mad Dragon spent nearly 300 million RMB just to forge one Ray of Sunshine. They really are going all out…"

Lin Yixin checked Ray of Sunshine’s profile page on the database before saying, "Ray of Sunshine isn’t Purgatory Mad Dragon’s vice leader yet. I’m guessing that they’re going to meet offline and sign a contract first. There’s no way Wang Dongliang and Lu Chao would’ve given Ray of Sunshine the Heaven Suppressing Necklace otherwise."

I nodded. "Yes, I think so too. The item is way too valuable. 100% lifesteal is the kind of attribute only a Divine Armament should have, sheesh!"

He Yi chuckled. "Knowing Lu Chao and Wang Dongliang’s style, they’re going to secure Ray of Sunshine in 24 hours at most before they begin the initiation to make Ray of Sunshine a true member of Purgatory Mad Dragon."

I smiled. "So, want to log out and eat dinner? We’ll come back later and see if there’s anything important to do."

"Yeah."

……

As it turned out, there wasn’t anything important after all, so He Yi, Beiming Xue and I grinded around 3 hours in the champion arena to return my score to the Top 100. It had been ages since I grinded the champion arena seriously, so of course my ranking dropped even though my win rate was insane. The Top 10000 players in the champion arena could receive an experience reward every week, and for my current ranking—the 59th place—I could receive around 17% experience. Considering my current level, that was pretty incredible already. If grinding experience the normal way became too difficult in the future, I supposed that grinding the champion arena wasn’t a bad option as well. Still, it was such a massive pain to grind back to the Top 100. Did you know that the Top 10 rankers of the champion arena had a total match count of over thirty thousand? I didn’t even know how they did it.

I logged out at 11 pm, and went to bed at midnight.

While I was half asleep, my phone suddenly rang and jolted me awake. I grabbed it and saw that it was Gui Guzi who called me—

"What is it, Little Gui?"

"Boss Broken Halberd, Eternal Moon just announced a new patch moments ago. It’ll officially launch in 48 hours. You seen it yet?"

I checked the time and said, "Bro, it’s 12:05 am right now. Of course I haven’t…"

Gui Guzi said, "Well, I think you should go over it with Boss Eve now. This new patch is pretty unique, and it’s likely to bring about a massive change to the whole Heavenblessed Continent. That’s why I think we should prepare as soon as possible and not fall behind the other guilds. Well, that’s all I wanted to say. I’m going to grind instances with Li now."

"Yeah."

I sat up straight and said, "Very well, I’ll check out the details of the new patch with Eve right away. Work hard and get your mount to Level 200, okay? It may unlock some new attributes, and even if it doesn’t, there’s no harm in increasing our strength especially since a new patch is on the horizon."

"Yeah. Bye!"

After Gui Guzi hung up, I put on a shirt, grabbed my notebook, and went to knock on He Yi’s room. While pressing the on button, I asked, "You slept yet, Eve?"

He Yi’s lazy voice came from inside, "Not yet. You wanna come in?"

"Yeah."

As I opened the door and walked in, a faint waft of fragrance immediately tickled my nose. There just was no comparison between a woman’s bedroom and a man’s.

……

He Yi turned on her bedside lamp and chased away the darkness. The faint yellow light gave the room a peaceful and tranquil ambience.

"What’s wrong, Lu Chen? You don’t normally knock on my door at midnight." The lighting was still a bit too dim for me to see He Yi’s expression clearly, but her voice was clearly teasing. "You’re not looking for a good time like Mingyue said you would, are you? I’m not mentally prepared tonight, so maybe next time…"

I rolled my eyes. "Come now, this is serious business. A new patch has just been announced…"

"Oh?"

I sat near the bedhead and put down my notebook. As expected, a row of blood-red text appeared on the home page when I clicked into the official website—

A New Patch Arrives! The March of Chaos

Deep within the ancient continent, a mysterious power grows restless and hungry. Led by the lure of power, the ancient king and former Dragon Speaker, Mingyu has arrived at a forgotten ruin that allowed him to regain his powers day after day. Today, he has finally grown strong enough to summon the Purgatory’s legions of the dead. Not even half a year has passed since his revival, but he has already created an extraordinarily powerful legion in the ruins with the aid of powerful experts such as Michael. That isn’t all. The two Purgatory Sovereigns, Coldblade the Infinite Storm and Thunder the Blade of Death have also been led to the ruins by the power of the dead, and the terror that is soon to be unleashed will surely change the world.

Meanwhile, the alliance led by Karinshan of Sky City is urgently making preparations for the upcoming war. The war drums will be beaten, and an earthshaking war for honor and survival will be fought on this ancient continent.

Patch Introduction: When "March of Chaos" is officially launched, players may choose to join the Silver Moon Alliance (the faction consisting of humans, succubi, elves and more races of the living) and enter the Chaotic Regions as its members. Kill Night Creatures to earn patch-exclusive contribution points. The launch will be fully released only after Mingyu has been killed.

Players of all servers are welcomed to participate in the event. The Top 10000 players on the contribution ranking will be rewarded handsomely. The best player is guaranteed to win one of the Twelve Divine Armaments, and the first and second runner-ups are guaranteed to win one of the Seventy-two Ghost Armaments each!

1. E/N: Remember when I said his class was the same as Little Piglet’s, just a different element? Author isn’t even trying to not make him Little Piglet 2.0 xD ☜
