Chapter 178 The Higher One Climbs, The Colder They Feel

Ye Ci pondered for a while as she gazed at the ring in her hands before throwing it inside her backpack Although she wished to improve her accuracy, she felt that she would be able to achieve it without relying on the ring Of course, this was just a reason that Ye Ci came up with to persuade herself The truth was that she had been in a dile Time had worn, what does that represent if she used it?

Even if this is a game, and stats are very important to her character, Ye Ci was still troubled by such a fat In the end, she gave up and decided to leave it in her backpack to gather dust

Ye Ci intended to rush out of the gates and toss out another bolory points if possible; however, she had just reached the abbey’s entrance when she saw the noisy group of western continent players vanish on the spot with a flash of white light

Was she really that unlucky? She was fully prepared to collect the loot but it turns out there was nothing for her to loot at all

“Due to the players of the Western Continent activating the transfer device, the Western Continent’s siege on Eastern Continent’s Charatulations to Eastern Continent players for successfully defending Cha the first brave individuals to challenge the unknown”

After the players from the Western Continent vanished, the system announcement reached every player’s ears Furthermore, it was repeated numerous times

Ye Ci listened to the system announcement, and was deeply puzzled The developers are so kind Since this was the first siege battle ever, no serious penalties were i side

However, it seemed that Ye Ci was the only one dissatisfied with the situation The rest of the players of the Eastern Continent couldn’t help but scream with exhilaration at the announcement that they had successfully defended Champion City The entire city echoed with joyful roars and cheers, as though it was insufficient to vent out the excitement they had just kept bottled up for a few hours

Afterwards, the system even set up a celebratory banquet in Cha everywhere and as served from all restaurants to welcome their heroes

Ye Ci did not like festivities She was unable to get used to situations where crowds of people would gather for a celebration Silently, Ye Ci walked out of Chaain set forth towards the Mausoleu

She had just taken a few steps, when she received a PM froo?”

“I just left the city”

“What are you doing outside? Hurry up and co a banquet in the palace square, you have to participate!”

“Just go in htly, she was never the one for festive occasions

Sir Ditty attempted to persuade her time after time but was politely declined each tiive up However, Good Ol’ Days, Flawless Reflection, CorruptingTheLiving, Dane and several guild leaders of es, inviting her to have a drink with them Left with no way to refuse, Ye Ci had no choice but to turn Ol’ Four around and ht, the entire Champion City see sea of players feasted, danced and sang non-stop Massive fireworks appeared in the night sky, beautiful and dazzling Ye Ci saw ood terht, it seees and celebrated What happens after that, will be left till tomorrow

Bai Mo and Ye Ci sat at the stairs by the National Treasury’s fountain, a large bottle of wine located by Bai Mo’s side As part of the system’s celebration, the wine distributed was much more delicious compared to the usual alcohol served in restaurants; further and sood would it be, if we could drink fine wine like this everyday?”

Ye Ci rolled her eyes, “Why didn’t I know that you have such a high tolerance for alcohol?”

“You wish, it’s precisely because I’m usually down after just a bottle that it’s impossible for me to feast on wine and meat like what you’d see on TV! That’s why I can only do so in the ga of the wine, it was clear that he was truly delighted

“You don’t look very happy?” Bai Mo noticed that Ye Ci was serenely gazing at the fountain without a sound, and used his elbow to nudge her

“It’s nothing,” Ye Ci shook her head, “How could I not be after we successfully defended the city?”

“It’s just that you’re not that happy” Bai Mo chortled, “To you, the greatest thing that ca the city was that you wouldn’t have to suffer the punishments set by the system, no?”

Ye Ci turned to look at Bai Mo This person really understood her as he had hit the nail on the head However, in all honesty, after being through nu treated theain so different, she felt as though she had contributed just a little towards today’s siege Perhaps this contribution would haveto her in her previous life, but she felt a strange feeling

That eitation, it was a very foreign e, a sense of belonging that proves that she had started over, a sense of belonging that proves that she was now a part of this world

It was really incredible

Of course, there was still soh it see Ti was not right, the sense of joy that everything has ended was absent
