Chapter 121: Harvest and Log-off
“Young Master, the wind is ready!”
In the Twin Dragon Mount fort, Ji Ye’s room was opened from the outside, and Nie Xiaoqian ca in with simple clothes on her.
Her fair hands were holding a wooden tray that seed to be made of erald. On the tray was a wine pot made of precious purple wood and a cup carved out of red wood.
Hum!
After Nie Xiaoqian put the tray on the table in the room, the wine she poured out of the pot was the sa color as amber.
Imdiately, the whole room was filled with the fragrance of wine!
[Forest Monster Wine]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-2]
[Rarity: Refined]
[Introduction: This is an amazing wine the Forest Monsters brewed at the red tree area with a hundred kinds of fruits. Your combat ability will be significantly increased if you’re drunk with the wine. If you drink it over a long ti, it can strengthen your body and your mind. It’s said that the Forest Monster Wine of higher levels can even give intelligence to the unintelligent creatures!]
After conquering the Forest Monsters’ territory, apart from the wood resources in different colors that they already knew, the Twin Dragon Mount fort also unexpectedly received the fine alcohol nad Forest Monster Wine.
From the introduction to the wine, Ji Ye began to suspect that the wine that apes and monkeys made in ancient classics and novels was actually based on the Forest Monster Wine from the Land of Inheritance.
This wine also explained why the Forest Monster King could’ve reached Extraordinary Rank-5 so early, and why it was so much smarter than other Forest Monsters.
However, because the Forest Monster King monopolized the core resource, none of the other Forest Monsters were even Extraordinary!
The Ten-Species Competition was a competition among different species anyway. At least in the current phase, until any individual beca Transcendent, it was impossible for anyone to win a war on their own.
The Forest Monsters’ failure was inevitable.
“This wine tastes better when it’s ward!”
Ji Ye reached for the cup with a smile. By the ti he delivered the cup to his mouth, hot air was already popping up from the wine.
On the other hand, the three-colored wood on the Forest Monsters’ territory was very valuable for human beings too.
They were waterproof, fireproof, and could even heal themselves after they evolved into red wood. They were the best materials to build boats.
It had already been found out that the Twin Dragon Mount was adjacent to the ocean.
Whether it was on an island or the shoreline of a continent, it would definitely need a navy and warships in the future!
Speaking of which, we’ve also found many pieces of purple and red wood at the settlent core that carried ‘offering’ status. If I fuse them, I wonder if I can direct ng Kang, the man who supervised the construction of warships in the Liangshan Marsh, to this place.
Ji Ye thought.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a problem even if such a professional shipbuilder hero couldn’t be welcod, because, in a few days, the second batch of newcors would’ve stayed on the Land of Inheritance for a whole month.
By then, those people would be able to log off, and it would be possible to find ship experts in reality and learn how to build warships from them!
In fact, Earth was, to so extent, the Twin Dragon Mount settlent’s greatest reliance in the current phase!
“Xiaoqian, you stay here and watch over things for . I’ll be away for a while.”
After drinking up the Forest Monster Wine that was heated with the Nine Yang Divine Art and feeling its warmth spreading out in his body, Ji Ye gave Nie Xiaoqian an instruction and logged off after this.
Now, the tal n were the only aliens left near the settlent.
Since they had revealed themselves as a highly-developed civilization during the previous reconnaissance, Ji Ye was going to look into their information on the forum of the Land of Inheritance and through the Confederation Office.
Of course, he was also going to find his senior brother and asked about the second batch of players’ full-month log-off.
...
“Junior Brother Ji, it’s rare to see you!”
In the director’s office in the players’ base of Yang City, Director Zhou, who had lost a significant amount of weight, made tea for Ji Ye in person.
“Well, thanks, but I don’t need it... Have you been busy these days, Senior Brother Zhou?”
Ji Ye politely refused the tea and asked Director Zhou.
“If I’m not busy, then nobody is.
“To be honest, Junior Brother, we’ve been swamped recently because the second batch of players will return in a couple of days,” Director Zhou replied exhaustedly with a bitter smile.
Unlike the first batch, the second batch of the people who entered the Land of Inheritance was half elites and half ordinary people.
Just like there were disobedient rogues in the Twin Dragon Mount fort, the Confederation Office would unavoidably run into rogues too.
Since the Land of Inheritance had been activated for almost three months, so people had already gathered enough Rare Honor and could exchange it for so items or even abilities from the Land of Inheritance and take them back to Earth.
Once those people returned, it would be much harder for the Confederation Office to manage them.
It was inevitable that the intelligent creatures didn’t want to be restricted when they beca powerful.
Also, they were only the second batch, and even counting the beta testers, there were only several million people in total.
By the ti the third and fourth batches were announced, and hundreds of millions of people beca players, even the Confederation Office wouldn’t be able to concentrate them in one place to manage them.
“Right, the Honor System that I ntioned to you has been set up. It will probably be implented soon.”
It was clear that the Confederation Office had already realized that the player base was only an expediency, and the Honor System was the key solution!
“Currently, you are the player with the most Honor in Yang City. Congratulations, junior brother!” Director Zhou said to Ji Ye with a smile.
Although Ji Ye didn’t log off often, he had returned with important intelligence every ti he ca back because of the Twin Dragon Mount’s fast developnt.
For example, his information about the changes when a settlent was upgraded to Extraordinary Rank-3 and when a person advanced to Extraordinary Rank-5 was very valuable to Chidragon and the Confederate governnt.
For that, he had received plenty of Honor. It wasn’t too surprising that he ranked first among the players of Yang City.
“Okay!”
Therefore, Ji Ye simply nodded without evincing too much delight.
“Ha, junior brother, you are indeed much calr than what’s expected of soone in your age, exactly like Ling Chen said!”
Director Zhou couldn’t help but put on a bitter smile again seeing Ji Ye’s reaction.
Ji Ye had never elaborated on his experience on the Land of Inheritance, but Director Zhou could tell that his “junior brother” had a high status in the settlent, to the point that he had developed a special vibe in him.
Other people might not be able to sense it, but as a bureaucrat, he was quite sensitive in that regard.
Based on the information that Ji Ye took back, he could guess that Ji Ye’s settlent was likely to win the Ten-Species Competition!
“There’s only one thing that I can tell you. While there aren’t too many players yet, you can try to get more ‘Collective Honor’. The ‘Honor System’ will definitely be more significant than you can imagine!”
Thinking about that, Director Zhou beca grave and spoke to Ji Ye seriously.
“Eh?”
“Got it. Thanks, Senior Brother Zhou!”
Ji Ye raised his eyebrows.
As soone who worked in the Confederation Office, Director Zhou definitely knew so confidential information.
He spoke so gravely as if the Honor System that the Confederate governnt discussed with the other countries was more complicated than a simple way of asuring the credit of the players.
“Director... Hu, hu...”
However, before he was able to think more carefully, soone had knocked at Director Zhou’s office door.
After Director Zhou’s reply, a worker at the Confederation Office walked in while breathing heavily!
“Another settlent that belongs to Yang City has been conquered by aliens?”
Seeing the worker, Director Zhou put on an awful expression.
He felt rather helpless. After all, in the competition of ten intelligence species, while most alien tribes weren’t as developed as Earth, so of them were indeed more powerful than Earth.
At this mont, Yang City only had no more than fifty settlents, even though it had more than 150 at the beginning.
“It’s the settlent of Ning Ling, our seed player!”
Ji Ye was already about to go to his bedroom and return to the Land of Inheritance.
But the worker who ca to report was so excited that he had already spoken the news out before he left the room!
The players who passed the beta test had “talent” advantages. They were mostly considered as seed players who could possibly win the Ten-Species Competition.
It was indeed a serious matter to Yang City that one of its seeds’ settlents was conquered.
“Ning Ling? How is it possible? Isn’t Zhou Zhiruo in their apartnt?” Ji Ye couldn’t help but stop and ask in surprise after hearing that.
Ning Ling was the girl who was chewing gum when he ran into her in the City of Humans. He exchanged for the Nine Yang Art from Zhou Zhiruo through her, which greatly helped him develop the Nine Yang Divine Art!
Her settlent must’ve already been upgraded to Rank-2, and she had the help of Zhou Zhiruo, a Transcendent heroine. She should have had many advantages.
How on earth did she fail?
“Huh, junior brother, do you know the girl?”
Hearing Ji Ye’s question, Director Zhou asked another question in surprise.
“We t once in the City of Humans and entered the Battlefield of Providence together, but we didn’t go to the sa Battlefield of Providence!”
Ji Ye nodded.
“Sigh, it’s exactly because of the Battlefield of Providence!
“They lost after they entered the Battlefield of Providence. Although their settlent had reached Rank-2, they lost plenty of providence and equipnt because of the failure, so...”
Ji Ye realized what happened after hearing Director Zhou’s explanation.
After entering the Battlefield of Providence, while Ning Ling and Zhou Zhiruo were strong on their own, their enemy was able to win the support of the neutral forces and defeat them with external help.
As a result, not only did they lose the equipnt they brought to the Battlefield of Providence, but they also lost trendous providence of their settlent.
After they returned to the settlent, they were inevitably suppressed by an alien settlent, which had also advanced to Rank-2. The situation beca difficult for them!
In such a case, even though Ning Ling said that she could take care of everything on her own before, she had to put her pride aside and ask for the Confederation Office’s help.
However, although Director Zhou summoned many specialists to plan for her, her inevitable failure couldn’t be avoided.
A mont ago, the settlent she belonged to was conquered by aliens!
It also ant that, just like Wu Qiao, Ning Ling lost all the advantages she had accumulated since the beta test trial.
As for Zhou Zhiruo, even though she was strong enough to kill two alien heroes in a row, the power of an individual could not decide the outco of a battle in the current phase. She couldn’t defeat all the enemies that surrounded her.
This rarely-seen heroine who had arrived early would probably lose all the mories about her identity even if she was reincarnated later!
