Zhan Yue Novel - Chapter 473
Chapter 473- Finding out the truth
I stretched and hid in the shadows. I just searched the area and glanced at the Snow Sika Deers to search for the lv-1 one. At the same time, I opened my friend list to talk to Lin Xi.
“En?”
Lin Xi smiled, “Why?”
“Have you heard about Calorie’s case? That Penghao Ren person is targeting her online~~”
“I saw.”
Lin Xi frowned, “But there is nothing we can do. I can’t use my account to scold him right? Moreover, I think with that person’s combat strength, I might not be his match…”
I laughed, “You are so proper, you definitely aren’t his match!”
She burst out laughing, “Why, do you have an idea?”
“En.”
I nodded and said, “Lin Xi you are our guild leader and are one of the strongest players. With your identity, if you post a clarification, it can help solve many misunderstandings and cause Penghao Ren to shut up.”
“If he doesn’t?”
Simple, we will declare war on With You and smash them. Whoever says anything we will attack them.”
She smiled, “But… I am leveling and don’t have time to post, why not… You help me draft something?”
“Sure, leave it to me.”
“En en~~”
…
Not long later, I started to show off my skills. I wrote a huge paragraph—
“Hello everyone, I am With You’s Lin Xi. Recently, the forums got really riled up because of With You’s Calorie. I have understood the situation. After Calorie entered Illusionary Moon, she did play with Dragon Riders but she didn’t promise to stay there and she didn’t sign a contract. After With You was formed, as Light Frost is Calorie’s good friend, so,
Calorie came to With You.”
“On the forums, there is a person called Penghao Ren who is Dragon Rider’s deputy who has been unhappy with this matter and even launched personal attacks on Calorie. There is no need as Calorie joined With You before Dragon Rider was formed. Moreover, she is at most just friends with Dragon Rider members so she came and went as she pleased. No one should interfere.”
“At this point, I would like to ask you to stop attacking Calorie. With You will protect our members and if Dragon Rider continues… You shall be responsible for your words.”
…
“Nice!”
Lin Xi looked at my draft and smiled, “Lu Li if you go bankrupt after not playing the game, you can write books to earn money~~~”
I rolled my eyes, “Can you have more faith?”
She burst out laughing, “Then… I shall post it?”
“En, post it!”
“Okay~~”
…
Not long later, Lin Xi posted it on the forums and the admins pushed it to the top. Posts that could cause drama would be pushed to the top. Moreover, there were just a few top players and most of them didn’t like to read the forums. Once one of them posted, they would most probably reach the top.
I looked at the replies and basically, everyone was on our side. So Calorie’s storm was over. From today onwards, she would be proper With You member.
4pm.
My eyes lit up and it finally appeared! A slightly smaller Snow Sika Deer with the beautiful lv-1 above its head. It was finally here, the second mount!
My heartbeat sped up and I switched to the Paladin account!
After buffing myself with the defensive skills, I charged forwards and tried to tame it. But the taming rate of a cavalry player was really low and all of my attempts failed. I switched to the Assassin account and left with White Cloak!
A minute later, I tried again!
I used this method to tame it so in theory, I had unlimited tries. Even if I was down to low health I could use White Cloak to flee. I didn’t give them a chance at all.
Thus, after the third try, this level 1 Snow Sika Deer turned into a streak of light. Deep in the sealing stone was a Snow Sika Deer walking on the surface of water. Its legs caused ripples and it looked really peaceful.
“Hu~~~”
I looked at it and my heart felt warm. Actually, our With You cavalry should ride such a mount to match with our name.
As for myself, I didn’t use the Paladin account much so I didn’t want to waste it. Moreover, my Thousand Mile Moon Foal was much stronger than this so there was no need.
…
Now, I had two sealing stones in my bag. Continue to search!
At around 5pm, when I was searching the area, I heard dense footsteps in the distance. I saw a group walking into the Hercules Beetle Forest. The leader was Male Bear, Dragon Rider’s guild leader. Fang Baiyu and Penghao Ren followed behind. This time there were more of them, over 200 of them. Most were around level 100 so this should be all their elites.
“Scoff…”
Male Bear’s gaze was cold, “That level 1 Snow Sika Deer probably despawned.”
“Impossible!”
Penghao Ren frowned, “As long as such a special resource spawns, it won’t despawn unless there was maintenance. So someone should have taken it or killed it. After all, a level one Sika Deer just needs one arrow to kill.”
Male Bear said, “En, that is true… You need to pay attention. Since Cal is at With You then forget it, there is no need to diss her. Even Lin Xi replied which means that they pay close attention to this matter. Let’s not be too much.”
Penghao Ren smiled, “Why, are you afraid?”
“Afraid?”
Male Bear looked at him and said, “With You has reached level 5 and there are 2000 of them. If you include their secondary members there is 2000 more. With You is comparable to Limitless now so how would we fight them? I don’t want to get killed because you can’t control your mouth!”
“I understand.”
Penghao Ren’s mouth twitched, “Since that is the case then I won’t say anything.”
Fang Baiyu nodded, “Continue, let’s push forwards. There should be other level 1 deer. If we can get one, our guild will have meat for a week.”
“Right!”
Male Bear said solemnly, “Snow Sika Deer, if it really is a mount, we can auction it off in the guild for 50 thousand starting price. Then we can split the money!”
“Okay, long live boss!”
They cheered.
…
I frowned. This Hercules Beetle Forest was not my playground anymore. With this bunch entering, the flames of war would probably spread.
But that was okay, I was the only one and they couldn’t kill me.
“Di!”
Just when I was thinking about it, Shen Mingxuan sent a message, “Ah Li, Ah Li! Time to eat. Let’s head out. Lin Xi and I want to eat sour vegetable fish. Go downstairs to drive.”
“Okay, bring Lin Xi down.”
“Okay~~”
I searched for a safe spot and went offline. I wore a jacket and went downstairs to drive. I continued to drive the studio’s car. A short while later, Shen Mingxuan and Gu Ruyi brought Lin Xi down. I bent to let Lin Xi hug me before carrying her into the car.
“Pa pa~~~”
Shen Mingxuan clapped, “Scoff, Lin Xi actually lets a guy touch her, great… I don’t need to work anymore~~~”
Lin Xi stared, “Eh, so you are saying life was tough before?”
“No no, I had a happy hug every day, it actually felt good.” Shen Mingxuan smiled.
I glanced at her, “What a disgusting simp…”
“Damn, go drive your car you driver!”
“Oh…”
I got on and brought everyone towards our destination. It wasn’t far, just ten minutes away. I brought Lin Xi in and there was no suite. We could only eat in the hall in a four person table. Based on our past habits, Shen Mingxuan sat with Lin Xi on one side and Gu Ruyi sat with me on the other.
“En?”
Shen Mingxuan looked at me and then at Lin Xi, “That… Lin Xi should I switch seats with Lu Li so you can sit with him?”
“Ah?”
Lin Xi was shocked, “Why?”
“So I won’t interrupt…” She acted lonely.
Lin Xi smiled, “What are you doing? Do you believe that I can toss you out?”
Shen Mingxuan admitted defeat, “Okay then… I won’t be weird okay?”
I picked up the menu and started to order. Gu Ruyi looked at me and then at Lin Xi. Then she looked at Shen Mingxuan and licked her lips. She sighed and picked up her phone to play her game.
