Chapter 567: Before The Siege
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Moonrise City.
There was a surge of people silently gathering up in this biggest, most majestic city of Angel Faction. There were people from all over coming in from the Warp Portals, the streets and the gates... there were always people flocking in. This was an uncommon sight. This many players flocking to the city could only be seen during the ti Demon Faction sieged the city. Yet this ti, there was no siege.
An awkward atmosphere rang throughout the city.
***
“Wow, so many people!”
Following Pretty Woman and the other mbers of the Ascendant Saber Clan, Xin Yu scanned the streets with her shiny beautiful eyes. It was her first visit to Moonrise City, and the first ti she saw so many people in the ga. Excitent ran in her wildly beating heart.
“Sis Pretty, is the city usually teeming with this many people?”
Pretty Woman also felt that sothing was weird—there were too many people in the city today. Hearing Xin Yu’s question, she shook her head and replied, “Today seems a lot more crowded than usual.”
As they walked past the crowd, Pretty Woman had secretly scanned the other players with her Elental Perception. There were many elites that they passed; the clan insignias of these people all indicated that they were from clans and leagues that were almost the sa level as hers.
There were players from Scarlet Dynasty, Black Prison and even the Hall of Heroes. Occasionally, they could also see the Netherspirit’s Claw mbers who had recently fallen from grace. And of course, they also passed so fellow League mbers—the ones from the Fallen Angels.
“Perhaps there’s so kind of unique Boss appearing in Mythical Battlefield? There are so many veterans and elites showing up today.”
“Yeah, I saw four Field Commanders from Netherspirit’s Claw pass us earlier...”
“Look! It’s Scarlet Dynasty...”
“It sure is rry crowded today! God damn it, so many of them are wearing legendary gear too... Boss Slash, for how long are you going to keep us in the dark? Co on, just let us in on what’s going on here.”
There were also many mbers of the Ascendant Saber that felt sothing was off. It was quite obvious sothing huge was happening and yet, their clan leader didn’t tell them anything about it.
Was it a powerful Ultimate Boss? Or so uber important quest?
If not, why should this many elites show up in Moonrise City all at the sa ti in one go? There were so many MVP players, so were akin to celebrities in “Honor and Glory”.
Just what the heck is going on?! Naturally, a storm of discussion kicked up in the Fallen Angel’s league chat channel.
As they walked through the streets, they saw many Tier 5 veterans commanding their underlings to gather supplies from the city’s stores. There were also Winged Champions being ordered to garrison specific coordinates.
It was as if they were preparing for a war.
“What’re they doing?”
Of course, Pretty Woman was still not getting any answers from Slash. Getting fed up with her clan leader’s silence, she suddenly had an idea. She turned towards Xin Yu and asked, “Xin Yu, be my dear and help investigate sothing?”
“Hmm?”
Xin Yu looked at her curiously. Her Sis Pretty was usually the more inford one... just what did she needed her to investigate?
Pretty Woman pulled Xin Yu over and whispered in her ears, “Could you ask your Brother Qin on what’s going on in Moonrise City right now?”
Seeing this uncommon sight in Moonrise City and having no clue on what’s going on was driving Pretty Woman mad. If her clan leader Slash was unwilling to respond to her inquiry, she might as well ask Qin Ruo himself.
If all five clans of the Fallen Angels had now gathered in the city, Qin Ruo, the League Leader of the Fallen Angels surely must know sothing. And who else more suitable to ask him other than Xin Yu?
Yet, after sending several private ssages, Xin Yu looked up at Pretty Woman...
“So what did he say?”
“Nothing.” Xin Yu shook her head. “Brother Qin said, you’ll know soon enough.”
“....”
Pretty Woman was speechless when she heard this. She knocked on Xin Yu’s head lightly, “You little goof. Didn’t I tell not to ntion my na? If he knew it’s who’s asking, he’ll definitely not say a word. This rascal sure knows how to get on my nerves.”
“But... I didn’t ntion your na at all.” Xin Yu looked at her innocently, “Brother Qin said Xin Yu would definitely not ask him sothing like this. So it must be Sis Pretty’s asking...”
Hearing this, Pretty Woman almost fainted. And it was then that Xin Yu continued, “Oh, right! Sis Pretty, Brother Qin wants to et up with him. Are you coming too?”
“Hmm?” Pretty Woman was stunned. “et up? et up where?”
“Co with ...” Xin Yu replied secretively.
***
Still puzzled by a train of questions in her mind, Pretty Woman followed Xin Yu to the east side of Moonrise City.
There were many players gathering on the walls. Thousands of them, from different Leagues, were manning their stations, clad in gear that were at least Dark Gold grade. These equipnt, if sold, could be worth millions in gold coins!
Xin Yu, wearing mostly gold grade equipnt, was sticking out like a sore thumb amongst the crowd. Even Pretty Woman felt uneasy being there.
“Xin Yu, just what were you thinking? This is where the Winged Champions gather.” Even though Pretty Woman sounded calm, her heart was beating with excitent—she was a Winged Champion fan herself. And seeing so many fabled Winged Champions gathering in one place, Pretty Woman was almost overwheld with euphoria.
“Wings? But Xin Yu has wings too.”
“Oh, my little goof. Bandits aren’t allowed here.”
To be honest, Pretty Woman was a little envious of Xin Yu. Even though she had to endure a fatal illness, Xin Yu had a man like Brother Qin to look after her. She got showered with love and care—sothing Pretty Woman wasn’t getting much herself.
“But Brother Qin told to co here. Oh, it’s Subjugator and Judge! Sis Xiaoxiao’s here too. Co on, they’re over there! Let’s go.”
Xin Yu had a keen eye and was able to locate her sister and other high ranking mbers of Fallen Angels amongst the sea of people.

“Hmph!”
“This Qin Ruo kid sure is lucky. As if being so strong is not enough, he even got so many beautiful ladies in his League.”
Many people were already eyeing the ladies in Fallen Angels, like Violet Orchid and Xiaoxiao with envy. Suddenly, an innocent-looking angel and a voluptuous temptress also showed up, with the Fallen Angel’s insignia. Their envy imdiately escalated to jealousy...
Being offended by all the players’ attention focusing on Fallen Angels’ ladies, a winged female player puffed in anger, “Hmph. They’re all just a bunch of useless deadweight. What’s so good about them?”
“Deadweight?”
The players shot a sneer at the female priestess...
“There are two Radiant Priestesses over there. Can you see them? That one is Violet Orchid. She’s the head of the Bauhinia Clan, Vice League Leader of Fallen Angels. She was the one who killed Savior. It’s common knowledge that she’s the best Radiant Priestess in the Angel Faction. The other one over there is Violetmoon Devilite, the supposed successor for Violet Orchid. Her Ice Python is so overpowered it’s basically now a mutated monster. So, you’re saying you are better than them? That you could defeat them in battles?”
A Warrior, who stood next to her, threw her a belittling look.
The female priestess was now quiet like a mouse... her divinity crystal was given to her because her clan leader was trying to build up the Priest classes in the clan. She wasn’t quite competent and crazy enough to butt heads with these two overpowered monstrosities.

“Sis Xiaoxiao, Xin Yu’s arrived for duty!”
“Xin Yu, are you feeling better?”
“Yeah, I’m feeling better than ever. Though, mom and the doctors were unwilling to discharge out of the hospital...” replied Xin Yu as she held Xiaoxiao’s hand.
Xiaoxiao combed her little sister’s hair gently with her hand, “they’re right, you know? Just rest up for a little longer. You can co back when you’ve fully recovered. Oh right, this is Sis Violet. You’ll be following her later. She’ll take care of you.”
“Hello, Sis Violet!”
After getting acquainted with Xin Yu, Violet Orchid asked, “Xin Yu, what’s the level of your Little Eye?”
“Level 50. How did you know the na of my pet?” Xin Yu was surprised to see Violet Orchid, the fabled Radiant Priestess in the Angel Faction, would know her and her pet.
“Your Brother Qin and Sis Xiaoxiao always talked about you. That’s how I know.”
While Xin Yu and Violet Orchid were chatting, Pretty Woman was also getting to know Xiaoxiao more. The leader of Bauhinia Clan and the vice leader of Fallen Angels clan were all here... it was a good opportunity to dig out more information.
Xiaoxiao was anticipating Pretty Woman’s inquiry. She smiled and told her to keep it a secret, and then told her via private ssages.
“What?”
Pretty Woman’s eyes were wide open after hearing this.
“Sieging a city? May I co with you too?”
“Sure, you can follow Xin Yu. I’ll feel more at ease if there’s soone she’s close to taking care of her. Oh, and don’t attack hastily. Don’t use AoE Magic Attacks. Leave the rest to us.” Xiaoxiao was quick to let her join their ranks.
“Yay! Alright!”
Pretty Woman was overjoyed! If there was going to be a siege battle, she wouldn’t want to miss out on all the fun.
But...
“Wait. Then why are we involving Xin Yu too? She’s just a Bandit.” Pretty Woman asked in a concerned tone.
Xiaoxiao looked at her with a gentle smile.
” Just a Bandit?”
