Chapter 95 Your Trial, My Trial, Seems Different
Chen You stared at the message from Moon Arrow in the chat box and fell silent.
He silently recalled his "purgatory-level" ordeal.
This...it's not even in the same league!
Before he could figure it out, a new message from Moon Arrow popped up, clearly showing her curiosity about the founding process of "Fairy Summer".
[Moon Arrow]: President Chen, your test... must be quite extraordinary, right?
coming.
Chen You cleared his throat; although the other person couldn't hear him, it was a ritual.
[Chen You]: Yeah, pretty much. The monster is indeed quite strong, but we were well prepared.
After sending this message, he paused briefly, as if recalling a fierce and arduous battle.
Then, he slowly typed out the next sentence.
[Chen You]: There are seven of us on our side, including me.
……
The City of Eternal Night.
Moonlight, like a waterfall, spilled into an elven courtyard suspended in the night sky.
Wearing a long silver dress, Moon Arrow sat barefoot on a swing, gently swaying.
When she saw the words "seven people in total," her eyes, as clear as amethyst, suddenly froze.
The hand holding the vine swing unconsciously clenched suddenly.
Seven people?
A storm of data flashed through her mind.
When the Moon Goddess's Radiance guild was first established, they faced monsters ranging from level 15 to 20.
As for Xianxia, with 3000 points of civilization affinity, the difficulty of the trial will definitely be high, if not low!
I'd venture to guess that even the minor monsters might be level 20!
The boss is more likely to be close to level 30!
You're telling me there are seven people?
Seven gods, please!
Moon Arrow stared at the chat box, imagining the brutal battlefield that must have been, waiting for what would follow.
Chen You then began his performance.
He imagined the people in the pay-to-win project team and started creating characters for them.
[Chen You]: That battle was indeed very fierce. We had two brothers who specialized in defense, and they managed to withstand the first wave of attack with their own flesh and blood, and died on the spot.
(Zhang Yunhai/Sun Feng: Brother, you overestimate me!)
[Chen You]: Then, a mage skilled in lightning magic summoned heavenly lightning to clear a space, but he also exhausted his spiritual power and was overwhelmed by monsters.
(Materials expert Qian Zhonghua adjusted his reading glasses: How come I didn't know I could use lightning magic?)
[Chen You]: In the end, only me and a few other teammates were left. The four of us were also in a bloodthirsty frenzy, fighting to the death.
[Chen You]: He fought his way from the West Gate to the East Street, cough cough... He broke three weapons in three days before finally beheading the Demon King.
Chen You spoke more and more fluently, as if he himself had come to believe it.
He portrayed the entire expert team at the command center as fearless warriors on the battlefield.
They risked their lives, shedding blood, to fight the monster army to the very last moment.
Finally, he let out a sigh that seemed to tell a story.
[Chen You]: In short, it was a Pyrrhic victory in the end. Of the seven brothers, almost half were sent away.
After sending that message, Chen You felt a little embarrassed.
That's ridiculous.
However, his "modest" words stirred up a huge storm in Yuezhiya's eyes.
A Pyrrhic victory?
Half of the people survived?
What terrifying combat power!
Their Luna's Radiance 100-man team suffered a 30% loss while fighting a level 20 boss.
Of the seven people from Xianxia, half might survive facing a level 30 demon king!
This person... no, this guild, is countless times more terrifying than she imagined!
Moon Arrow took a deep breath of the cool air, his chest rising and falling slightly.
She was incredibly grateful that her first reaction was to form an alliance.
After a long while, she calmed herself down and typed two words in the chat box.
【Moon Arrow】: I admire you.
These two simple words represent the heartfelt recognition of the strongest at the top of the Origin Realm pyramid.
【Moon Arrow】: Will Guild Leader Chen participate in this month's Guild Wars?
[Chen You]: I haven't decided yet, we'll see when the time comes.
Chen You's reply was ambiguous; he hadn't really made up his mind yet and would have to follow Director Li's arrangements.
【Moon Arrow】: If help is needed, the radiance of the moon goddess can provide assistance.
【Moon Arrow】: Although there are restrictions on the number of people and levels in the aid battle, our Elf God race is still capable of taking on ten opponents at once.
In Moon Arrow's view, since Fairy Summer has just been established, its guild ranking must be the lowest.
According to the matchmaking rules, the opponents I encounter shouldn't be too strong.
Her words were both a gesture of goodwill and a display of confidence.
Chen You, however, gleaned new information from it.
Can it still provide support? Are there restrictions on the number of people and their levels? Hill didn't mention that.
[Chen You]: Thank you for your kindness. I will contact you if needed.
[Moon Arrow]: Since we're allies, there's no need to be so polite. Speaking of which, I also have a question I'd like to ask Chairman Chen.
[Chen You]: Please speak.
Finally, it's here. Chen You knows that the other party's true purpose is about to be revealed.
[Moon Arrow]: Regarding Destruction Mode... just how fast does it need to be activated?
【Moon Arrow】: Our guild's elite team tried countless times and used every possible method to shorten the clear time, but all attempts failed.
Chen You's lips curled slightly when he saw the question.
He offered no explanation, said nothing more.
I simply typed a number into the chat box.
【Chen You】: 6.
After sending the message, he didn't even wait for a reply before closing the chat window.
……
On the other side, Moon Arrow stared blankly at the lonely "6" for a long time.
六？
Six what?
Six hours? Impossible, that's too slow.
Six people? No, Chen You did it solo.
Suddenly, a thought struck her mind like lightning!
Six... minutes!
Six minutes?
Their fastest time across all available dungeons is 11 minutes and 24 seconds, far short of 6 minutes.
"What a pity."
Moon Arrow shook his head; the only place that could be quickly cleared with an exorcism talisman, [Wailing Valley], had been destroyed.
"Perhaps I shouldn't be so fixated on this."
The destruction caused a significant loss of manpower and time.
However, it is still far from that record.
The Moon Arrow gazes into the distance.
Just who exactly is this Chen You?
She didn't know how much time had passed before she came to her senses.
Then I sent a message to Yueying.
"Come see me, I have something to ask you."
……
Chen You closed the chat, feeling relieved.
Without delay or paying attention to Hill beside him, he directly brought up the system interface and selected [Guild] - [Enter Territory].
The next second, his figure disappeared from the Supreme Tower and appeared in the central square of Baiyujing.
Looking around, the city was no longer deserted.
Many researchers in white coats, hurrying about, are pushing various sophisticated instruments in and out.
These people are all top experts brought in from the real world.
Chen You didn't disturb them and went straight to the most magnificent building—the Guild Affairs Center.
Above the main hall's entrance, a plaque bearing the two characters "Xianxia" (仙夏) hangs in a flamboyant, dragon-and-phoenix style.
The hall was spacious, with a huge sand table in the center, which was a miniature model of the entire Baiyujing.
A light screen unfolded in front of Chen You, displaying the guild's currently available functions.
[Guild Forging], [Guild Alchemy], [Guild Buildings], [Guild Quests]...
It has many functions, but Chen You quickly discovered the key to the problem.
Whether you want to unlock higher-level equipment blueprints, exchange for rare elixir recipes, or build more powerful defensive towers, you need the same thing—
[Guild Honors]
There is only one main source of guild honor.
Guild Wars.
Chen You frowned.
Isn't this just going in circles again?
"Couldn't you just... let me buy the honor with money?"
Undeterred, Chen You searched through the system for a long time but couldn't find the entry point for recharging honor.
What the heck? There are things that money can't buy?
This doesn't align with the core values of pay-to-win games!
Without hesitation, he chose to leave the guild territory and reappeared at the Supreme Tower.
Hill.
"Dear VIP member, how may I help you?" Hill bowed gracefully.
Chen You asked directly, "Can I buy those blueprints and prescriptions from the guild directly with gold coins?"
Hill gave a professional smile: "In principle, it's not possible. Guild honor is of paramount importance and irreplaceable."
"In principle?" Chen You keenly grasped the key phrase.
"Yes." Hill's smile became more mysterious. "However, a mysterious merchant occasionally appears in each district."
"It's said that he has everything, as long as you can afford it."
