In the dark forest, Dragonborn opened his eyes and saw the sunlight penetrating through the foliage.
Over the past few days, for the first time, he was getting offline during the day.
Because he was learning and carrying out his Strange Encounter Mission with Tomato, he was staying online for longer hours in order not to fail his mission. He suffered through a lot of hardships to obtain his current rewards.
Even if his Strange Encounter Mission failed now, the rewards he reaped were far greater than his expectation. Even if he died, he wouldn’t be at a loss.
However, a person was always greedy for more.
The reason Dragonborn got offline during the day was to view the videos of the Victorian’s invasion of the crossroad intersection outpost on the discussion forum.
Though he didn’t take part in this large scale Battle Campaign, he wanted to watch the videos for fun.
“Are you awake? There’s no more food,” Tomato said to Dragonborn. There were some leftover bones at the side.
Tomato hunted a small animal, but Dragonborn was sleeping, so he didn’t wake Dragonborn up. Tomato knew that it was impossible to wake Dragonborn up when he was sleeping.
As Dragonborn’s teacher, he decided to let Dragonborn go through hardship to learn a lesson.
That was to let Dragonborn go through hunger.
Dragonborn woke up just as Tomato finished eating.
“A qualified warrior has to learn control. If you’re unable to control your sleeping hours, how can you become a great warrior? You aren’t even qualified to assassinate King Potato II,” Tomato said solemnly to Dragonborn. He was very angry with Dragonborn’s behavior.
“Sorry, Teacher.”
Dragonborn apologized sincerely. However, he was unable to solve his problem of not waking up. Tomato also knew that he couldn’t possibly kill Dragonborn because of his sleeping habits.
They had to continue fleeing until they found a safe place. They couldn’t stop to rest.
Before Dragonborn left, he heard a crisp, chirping voice that sounded anxious, excited, and happy. It was like meeting family again. Dragonborn was also feeling blissful and happy.
He heard, “Chirp! Chirp!”
…
The battle at the crossroad intersection outpost ended.
The gamers of Victoria City won because they were more prepared and had superior combat tactics.
They obtained the governing rights of the crossroad intersection outpost, which would last until the next crossroad intersection outpost Battle Campaign. The duration of the governing rights would be short. The Faction War had just ended, but the gamers of Victoria City and Eternal Kingdom had new conflicts at all possible locations. The crisis level escalated again…
The first Faction War Battle Campaign took place in an experimental mode that provided Sherlock with valuable data and experience. To be precise, it was more for Bru.
Sherlock was the boss, while Bru was the employee who was responsible for managing and directing the gamers.
The current Battle Campaign was specially prepared for the next part of Sherlock’s plan. Things were developed according to his plan…
…
In the Godly Kingdom.
There were fully armed soldiers who had long feathers on their helmets. Giant steam propulsion machines spewed out steam in the distant background. They provided the energy for this area.
George was in his commander’s armor while he stood in front of the army. He saw an endless column of troops making its way into the distance. The citizens of the King sang Holy songs to cheer on the army. Their strong belief in the Sacred Holy Lord almost made them radiate out the Sacred Light.
Previously, George would be affected by the scene and do a few sums to enjoy the warmth of the Sacred Light.
But George’s mind was filled with bad omens. After going through so much, would the Victorians accept the reinforcements of the Godly Kingdom?
According to normal circumstances, reinforcements to fight the Underworld would be gladly accepted. He observed that the Victorians and creatures of Eternal Kingdom had been fighting for a long time. He could see that from the way the Victorians moved around in the Underworld and fought resiliently against the Underworld creatures.
The warriors of Victoria City were fearless. After killing the Underworld creatures, they would carry off their loot gleefully.
They didn’t look like they were fighting the Underworld creatures. They looked like they were pillaging the Underworld creatures.
Just like what the Victorians did to George.
He closed his eyes, and his thoughts traveled back to the morning when he was about to attack the Victorians. When he charged with his 3,000 Knights, he was defeated by the Victorians while they laughed and smiled. They were horrifying memories…
George opened his eyes, not wanting to recall the memories.
It was of no use to think so much. He wasn’t fighting against the Victorians this time. He was the commander of the Godly Kingdom’s army and was helping the Victorians fight against the Underworld creatures. He hoped that the Victorians wouldn’t attack them blindly.
That was his only wish.
…
Compared to the worrying George, the gamers of Victoria City were happy.
After defeating the gamers of Eternal Kingdom in the first direct battle, they obtained generous rewards. They were able to hold themselves up with pride in front of the gamers of Eternal Kingdom.
The commanders of Victoria City became famous overnight. The gamer with the highest prestige was University of Science and Technology of China.
The gamers of Victoria City were able to defeat the gamers of Eternal Kingdom easily because he created the simplified Airships.
