Chapter 294: National Barrier!
As soon as the command was issued, the players in the branch Guilds were the most excited, especially those already in the top 100 of the contribution list, who were extremely happy, as this meant that as long as they maintained their ranking, they could immediately become members of the Gods Guild, rising above others, as soon as the event ended.
Meanwhile, the members of the Gods Guild felt a sense of crisis.
There wasn't a single player who didn't know how good the benefits of the Gods Guild were.
In the Gods Guild, one could enjoy the best equipment treatment.
As long as you worked hard, there would be an endless supply of good items in the warehouse to exchange for.
Moreover, the Gods Guild did not restrict the destination of the items exchanged.
In other words, as long as you were powerful enough and had high enough contribution, it didn't matter even if you cleared out the warehouse to sell the items.
In fact, there were indeed many players who exchanged items from the warehouse and sold them at high prices.
After all, some materials in the Gods Guild were extremely rare and top-tier, hard to find elsewhere, and could be sold at very high prices.
It could be said that members of the Gods Guild who wanted to make money could easily earn over ten thousand per month, and those who were slightly more diligent could earn tens of thousands per month without a problem, and even hundreds of thousands if they were more dedicated.
It could be said that one Gods Guild had spawned a group of individuals earning millions annually, greatly improving their quality of life in reality.
Such top-tier Guild treatment, let alone in a game, was something only high-level executives in large companies could achieve in reality.
This was one of the charms of the Gods Guild.
For ordinary people, entering the Gods Guild was an opportunity to change their fate against the heavens.
And Li Xiang was the one who provided this opportunity.
Every player who entered the Gods Guild and enjoyed these benefits would not think of leaving.
Once pressure was generated, the players of the Gods Guild erupted with immense strength.
...
The afternoon session of the town defense began.
All players, whether Gods Guild players, branch Guild players, or solo players, were as if injected with chicken blood, going crazy.
Li Xiang was only responsible for killing the BOSSes during the town defense, leaving the other ordinary and Elite Monsters untouched, all to be handled by the players.
Similar to the morning, ten towns were attacked, but the afternoon session ended an hour earlier than the morning!
It was even faster than when eight towns were attacked previously!!!
And this was just the result of a single command from Li Xiang!
It could be said that the current Li Xiang already possessed a certain degree of ability to influence the direction of Wu Shuang City's players!!!
This was the charisma of the number one player in the game and the top-tier strength of the number one Guild in the game!!!
After the afternoon town defense ended, Li Xiang did not attend the usual meeting, leaving Lu Qingshui in charge.
...
Far north of Wu Shuang City.
Li Xiang leaned against a large tree, somewhat depressed as he sorted through the day's gains.
Aside from the first Undead Mammoth Knight that dropped a Skill Solidification Orb, no other Undead Mammoth Knight dropped one.
Although there were quite a few other gains, none were as valuable as the Skill Solidification Orb.
After pacing back and forth for a while, a spatial vortex appeared in mid-air.
Chen Sisi walked out from it.
"Waited for a while?"
Li Xiang yawned, "You urgently called me here, only to make me wait for half an hour, typical of you."
"Mere ants, it is your honor to be able to wait for this High Priest."
Li Xiang's mouth twitched.
Giving you face...
But Li Xiang still didn't say these words, because Chen Sisi had said in their mind link that this matter was very important, concerning the opening of the National Barrier!
National Barrier!
It was a specific term in the game, and also the thing that restricted the intercommunication between servers of different nations.
This thing was opening.
This meant the World was connected, players from the China Server could go to servers of other nations, and similarly, players from other nations could also come to the China Server!
"Is the National Barrier really opening?"
Hearing Li Xiang's question, Chen Sisi lost her playful mood, her expression becoming serious.
"Yes."
After speaking, she added, "It's not breaking through naturally."
Li Xiang looked at her in confusion.
Chen Sisi explained, "According to the deduction of my Demon Clan High Priest, the National Barrier would naturally open on a certain day in the future."
Li Xiang understood. The deduction of the Demon Clan High Priest should be the game's expansion pack. The national server channels would open sooner or later, but it wasn't time to open the World server expansion pack yet.
Because this was an extremely realistic game.
Accidents naturally occurred.
Just like how he discovered Undead Monsters, triggering an expansion pack.
Could it be that some player found something else, triggering a new expansion pack?
"Someone is deliberately breaking through it?!"
Chen Sisi nodded, "Not a Human."
Not a Human?
"It's the Undead General."
Undead General!!
Li Xiang took a deep breath.
It was actually an NPC...
"What does he want to do?"
Chen Sisi did not answer Li Xiang's question, but instead opened a spatial vortex, "I'll take you somewhere."
After speaking, she walked in.
Li Xiang immediately followed.
A moment later, they arrived in an unfamiliar map.
"Ding! Entering the hidden map 'Demon Annihilation Land'."
Hidden map?!
The surroundings were desolate, the ground scorched black.
Chen Sisi led Li Xiang forward, "This is where my Demon Clan's previous generation Demon King was buried. Originally, the scenery here was beautiful, but after the Demon King fell here, demonic energy ran rampant, and it became like this.
Later, many powerhouses of my Demon Clan transformed this place into a training ground for Demon Clan soldiers."
After speaking, she looked at Li Xiang, "You could say you've arrived at my Demon Clan's military camp now, are you scared?"
Li Xiang was dumbfounded.
This woman brought him to the Demon Clan's military camp?!
"Uh... aren't you afraid I'll leak the secrets of the Demon Clan army?"
Chen Sisi showed a smile, "Just kidding, my Demon Clan's military camp isn't somewhere just any tom, dick, or harry can enter."
Her words were still so annoying...
Li Xiang resisted the urge to retort.
Soon, under Chen Sisi's guidance, they arrived at a small town.
Chen Sisi waved her hand and put a shield on Li Xiang, "This is a disguise, otherwise, if a Human appeared here, you would be torn to shreds."
The people coming and going in the small town were all Demon Clan, and Li Xiang saw at a glance that they were basically all BOSS level.
Hiss...
He really had arrived at the Demon Clan's main base...
Under Chen Sisi's lead, they arrived at a small wooden house.
In front of the small wooden house, there was an old Demon Clan man sitting in a rocking chair, swaying.
Seeing Chen Sisi come over, he stopped swaying and spoke kindly, "It's Chen Sisi, you haven't been here for a long time."
"Grandpa Bell, I brought you something good~"
Saying this, Chen Sisi took out a jar of wine.
Bell laughed heartily, took the wine, opened the seal, and took a deep breath of the wine's aroma, "Hahahaha... didn't spoil you for nothing, where are you going this time?"
"The place where the barrier is broken."
Bell's expression paused, "Did that old woman tell you to go?"
Chen Sisi nodded, "The High Priest told me to go investigate the situation."
Bell nodded, "Be careful."
After speaking, he waved his hand and cast a magic power mark, which landed on Chen Sisi, "I won't drink your good wine for free. If you encounter danger, activate this mark, and it can teleport you back."
Chen Sisi's eyes lit up, "Thank you, Grandpa Bell~"
"Go on, go on."
Inside the wooden house, there was a teleportation array. Chen Sisi stepped into it, Li Xiang took a deep breath, and also stepped into it.
Bell looked at Li Xiang, his eyes narrowed slightly, "Chen Sisi... he is?"
Chen Sisi's heart fluttered, and she said, "He is a Human slave I contracted. His strength is not weak, bringing him along will help with exploration."
After speaking, she quickly winked at Li Xiang.
Call me Master!
Li Xiang's mouth twitched.
What the heck...
He wanted to flip the table!
But...
This person named Bell was very terrifying...
Far more terrifying than Chen Sisi...
If he fell into his hands, it probably wouldn't be as simple as just dying.
Taking a deep breath, under Bell's increasingly suspicious gaze, Li Xiang slightly bowed towards Chen Sisi, "Master..."
The suspicion in Bell's eyes disappeared, "This Human actually has a divine artifact. Chen Sisi, it seems you've gotten a good slave."
As his words fell, he waved his hand, the teleportation array emitted light, and the two were teleported away.
...
Bell sat back in the rocking chair, "Divine artifact... Hehe... and the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin skill... Is he a disciple of that Sword Saint guy...
It's been a long time since I saw that old fellow Sword Saint..."
"Chen Sisi did well, worthy of being a candidate for the next Demon King..."
