VRMMO: The Unrivaled

Chapter 828



Beiming Xue became a Divine General!

Well of the Abyss was an offensive CC skill. All targets trapped within the well couldn’t be attacked for 15 seconds, but they would lose 50% of their HP at the end of the duration. It was a powerful skill to say the least. The system announcement didn’t mention its cooldown, but all things considered, it couldn’t be too short. Otherwise, Beiming Xue could just trap any opponent with the Well of the Abyss repeatedly until they died...

……

"Haha, well done! Beiming became a Divine General!" Xu Yang cheered loudly.

The people of Warsky Alliance were stunned. They didn’t expect that Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls’ Dark Archer would be the one to take out the final boss.

Still wielding the Ghost Banner, Warsky declared angrily, "Keep fighting! The Tiger Soul Essence must be in their hands! The boss may be dead but the fight isn’t over yet!"

The guild leader and his people rushed toward us. I raised my sword and growled, "Dragonlight Cavalry, prepare for battle!"

However, the expected clash didn’t happen. Rays of prismatic light suddenly erupted from Beiming Xue’s body, and lotus flowers made of cyan cyclones appeared beneath her feet. In that moment, she looked like a beautiful elf who had transcended the mortal coil. There was some variance, but the visual effects of Great Earth Transformation for female players were more or less the same. Also, Beiming Xue’s divine energy was full since she just became a Divine General, and she saw no reason not to use it right now.

She waved her hand downward, and countless strands of golden light rushed into the air. The next moment, everyone around Warsky and October Rain screamed in surprise as the ground beneath them dissolved into a pool of golden mud that continuously dragged down toward the unknown bottom. For 15 seconds, they would be stuck in it!

Well of the Abyss truly was an impressive skill!

……

Warsky Alliance’s players were stunned for a moment. Divine energy curling around her fingers, Beiming Xue smiled at the enemies and asked, "Is there anyone else who wants to try my Divine General Skill? My Divine Energy is almost full, so please don’t hold back on my account! You are worth it!"

"Gulp!"

Wang Dongliang swallowed and stared longingly at the boss's body. He was obviously reluctant to give up, but Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls made their stance pretty clear: anyone who tries to put their grubby hands on the boss will pay the price in blood.

Wei-Jin North-South Dynasties put away his spear and ordered his subordinates, "Alright, the battle is over, and it’s time to leave. The final victor hasn’t yet been decided, but that doesn’t have anything to do with us, does it? Let’s go kill some dread-rank mobs and farm more Dark Prison sets, everyone!"

He wasn’t the only one who left. Come See The Snow Tonight of Baidicheng and her guild members also left the scene.

But unlike the Chinese players, the Northern Alliance had reappeared at the perimeters to stare at us with greedy eyes. These new players had just come up the ninth floor, and their numbers had exceeded ten thousand already. If they were led by a good leader, they could definitely deal a huge blow to Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and Snowy Catahya!

Among them was a high-level mage called Shabby Castle from Sunset City, England. He said, "Vienna has perished on the battlefield, and the time to fight to the death is now, braves of the Northern Alliance! Charge and kill the CGL Hall of Famers! Avenge our fallen brothers and sisters!"

The Northern Alliance cavalry immediately activated their Charge. The ground immediately shook beneath the hooves of their mounts.

It was at this moment a rider appeared in front of the Chinese ranks. It was none other than Lin Yixin and her Frostscythe Warhorse. The Devil Bell ringing melodiously to her movement, the cutie shot the enemies a bright smile as she toyed with her dagger.

The thundering hooves of the Northern Alliance instantly came to a halt. A couple of magic knights pointed at Lin Yixin and exclaimed in shock, "It’s her! It’s that succubus murderer! How is she still alive, and… is that the wind up to God’s Tear that I’m seeing? My god, is she planning to kill us all again??"

Their voice was literally shaking as they said this. They looked like they were about to piss their pants.

I hastily whispered to her, "Don’t use it, Yiyi!"

"I know!"

Lin Yixin turned around and stuck out her tongue playfully at me. When she turned back, she had put on a serious mask once more. Raising her dagger and smiling at the Northern Alliance players, she said, "You want the reward of Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower, don’t you? Come on then. Allow me to remind you of the taste of God’s Tear!"

Shabby Castle shivered from head to toe as an assassin next to him said, "Boss, we can’t do this! Hundreds and thousands of our brethren are in the Land of Soul Suppression right now. If she uses God’s Tear and does a map-wide wipeout again, our losses will be unthinkable. The Wild Boars we recruited from Scotland would riot for sure!"

Shabby Castle nodded. "I know…"

Another Heroic Bannerman walked up to Shabby Castle and supported the assassin’s argument, "There’s no need to hesitate any longer. If we had a small winning chance before, that chance is now gone forever. Hmph! We could’ve owned this map completely, but most of the best players from Titan City, Seven Star City and Eternal Love City refused to come. Now the Chinese are the ones who hold the absolute advantage. Castle, I’m leaving with my people. This is no longer our battle."

"Fine…"

Shabby Castle let out a sigh before ordering, "Time to return to our cities, everyone! You can stay behind if you want to farm the Dark Prison sets, but the ninth floor is crawling with Chinese, so don’t say I didn’t warn you if you die! Take care!"

Finally, Shabby Castle shot Lin Yixin an angry glare before growling, "Just you wait, Wind Fantasy. I will file a complaint to Eternal Moon Corporation and tell them to remove God’s Tear! We will not settle for anything less! Hmph, Eternal Moon Corporation’s leaders must’ve hit their head on a rock or something. How can they allow such an OP skill to exist in an MMO? Ridiculous!"

Lin Yixin blushed before shooting back, "Oh yeah? Do it! Anyone who dares to delete my Divine General Skill will face the consequences, hmph hmph…"

Shabby Castle glared at Lin Yixin one last time before pulling out his return scroll and shouting, "Our operation has failed! Northern Alliance, retreat!"

Lin Yixin let out a melodious laugh as the enemy teleported away. Realization was starting to dawn on me, but I couldn’t say anything at the time.

……

Meanwhile, Warsky, October Rain and the rest of the people trapped in Well of the Abyss recovered themselves.

Beiming Xue raised her bow and asked, "Are you withdrawing or not? We have already taken the boss, so what else can you possibly want to do in this situation?"

Warsky chuckled. "Well, there’s still Candlelight Shadow, right?"

"Not anymore."

He Yi spoke up and opened her palm to show two Tiger Soul Essences. "Candlelight Shadow was hit by the Yin Yang Tiger’s eye beam earlier and taken out by a random Galaxy Storm during the confusion earlier. Now both his Tiger Soul Essences are in my hands. Surely you aren’t planning to fight us for them, are you?"

"You have Tiger Soul Essences?!"

Lin Bing Dou Zhe’s eyes lit up. He looked like he wanted to snatch them from her hands, so Beiming Xue immediately unleashed another Well of the Abyss and trapped him and his allies inside its vortex, showing Warsky Alliance once more that there was really nothing they could do to us. Sure, they could activate an invincibility skill and negate the Divine General Skill’s effects, but that would basically be a declaration of war. By themselves, Warsky Alliance was no match for us.

……

He Yi walked to me and passed me her Tiger Soul Essences. Chaos Moon also gave me the Yin Yang Tiger’s Tiger Soul Essence. Apparently, she had grabbed it the moment the boss died and dropped its loot. Truly an impressive display of reaction speed and hand-eye coordination.

Now all 9 Tiger Soul Essences were in my hands. At the same time, I received a system notification. It said: Do you wish to activate a 5-man main quest right now?

I gave it some thought but decided not to do so. Everyone here had been online for 15 hours at least, and to start an important quest now would be to push them to the brink of exhaustion, not to mention that rest and sleep was necessary to perform at maximum capacity.

……

It was at this moment I heard a melodious ding—

System Notice: Congratulations, you have gained 187230 contribution points in Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower quest. Your rewards are: Level +2, Luck +1, Reputation +12000, and the items: Dragonstone Gem X x3, Dragonstone Gem XI x2, and Dragonstone Gem XII x1!

Swhoosh swhoosh! I leveled up to Level 167 immediately. This trip had helped Lin Yixin and I to regain our pinnacle strength, and this new main quest would only make us stronger. The stronger we became, the further we could travel along the path of conquest. The opposite was equally true, so all these were good news for the both of us.

Moreover, the quest rewarded me with 6 incredibly valuable Dragonstone Gems. Dragonstone Gems increased equipment’s Defense, and right now there were only Rank 1 to 9 gems for sale in the market of Sky City. Anything higher than that was basically priceless. Therefore, I couldn’t thank the system enough for gifting me 6 of these gems, and I was absolutely going to use them to enhance my Heaven-burning Armor the moment I went back to the city. A 6-star Outstanding Immortal-grade item was definitely worth slotting a Rank 12 gem, especially since the stat boosts went up by 5% for every increase in rank, meaning that a Rank 12 Dragonstone Gem would increase my Heaven-burning Armor’s Defense by 60%! It would be like adding wings to a tiger!

After pleasing myself with the contents of my bag, I looked at the others and asked, "The Ying Yang Tiger should’ve dropped a lot of good stuff. What else did you all get?"

He Yi replied, "I got an Earth-grade metal armor, and I gave it to Gui Guzi."

Lin Yixin also said, "I got a Heaven-grade ring that adds 45% Attack, and I’m keeping it for myself. Little Cheat, you’re an agile guy, I refuse to believe you didn’t get any loot from the boss. So?"

I simply shot her an enigmatic smile and changed the topic. "Well then… I guess it’s free time. Grind or log out and rest, do whatever you want, people. The Tiger Soul Essence main quest is a 5-man party quest. Since I had an agreement with Snowy Cathaya earlier, Lin Yixin will be joining the party. Eve and me will be joining as a matter of course, and sis as well since every party needs a priest. Who do you guys think I should recruit for the last party slot?"

Chaos Moon said, "Take your sister with you, duh. She’ll bite you if you don’t. Of course, if that is your fetish then feel free to pretend that I haven’t said anything…"

Lastly, I checked the time and heard a rumble from my stomach, so I said, "Alright, it’s time to log out and rest. We’ll come back online and activate this main quest in 15 hours. Thanks for your hard work, everyone! Again, feel free to stay behind and grind in Nine Tigers Soul Suppression Tower a bit longer if that’s what you want! Chengfeng, come here. I’m giving you a Dark Prison set and a couple Cyanblade sets. You decide who you want to give them to!"

"Okay!" Li Chengfeng accepted the responsibility without complaint.

……

It was a long, hard battle, and everyone was tired. He Yi, Beiming Xue and even Gui Guzi logged off to get some rest.

Lin Yixin was going to do the same thing, but just as she was about to crawl into her tent, I grabbed her hand and stopped her.

"What’s wrong, Little Cheat?" She asked while shooting me a puzzled look.

I smiled at her and said, "I have something super amazing to give you. Here!"

"Ah? What is it?"

I opened my palm and revealed a shiny pet egg. Lin Yixin’s mouth fell open as excitement and joy filled her eyes—

Moonchaser Tiger (Immortal Rank Mount): Binding Requirement: Level 160, 150000 Reputation.
