Chapter 372 Time for City Wars
“City War?” I hung up the phone, puzzled by the news.
Wan Er took out her phone and checked [Destiny]’s official website. She then grinned, “Yeah, the City War system had just been implemented. Actually……it’s two main cities dispatching troops to attack a citadel and the winner receives a generous reward. Also, the assisting players will receive a generous reward. It’s probably similar to the battle at the [City of the Ancients]……”
I looked at the starting time – the city war was set to begin at noon tomorrow. All the details of the event were clearly stated on the website.
[War of the Cities]:
1. A citadel will spawn between two main cities. Within the citadel will be neutral guard NPCs. The two main cities will dispatch 50% or more of their forces to commence an attack.
2. The players can assist in the attack and a certain amount of City War points will be awarded when they kill the NPCs or players of the opposing factions. When this event ends, the points can be exchanged for a generous amount of experience points. Based on these points, the top 1000 players will receive additional rewards.
3. When the City War ends, more than 80% of the NPCs that were killed will be resurrected, however, BOSS level NPCs cannot be resurrected
4. After entering the range of the citadel, once a player dies, they will not be able to revive. The City War will continue for 48 hours and the person that obtains the Citadel Guarding Decree at the end will receive sovereignty over the citadel and the citadel’s BUFF.
5. The Chinese server will spawn two citadels, “Fort Zi Feng” and “Fort Yuan Ling”. The two cities, Ba Huang City and Jiu Li City, will battle for Fort Zi feng while the other two forces, Fan Shu City and the Tribe of Giants, will battle for Fort Yuan Ling.
……
After reading the introduction, I took a deep breath and said, “Looks like the Chinese server’s main city battle has already begun. There will be a bloody battle between Ba Huang City and Jiu Li City!”
Wan Er chuckled, “Too bad, Dong Cheng and I are in Fan Shu City, so we can’t go over to help you. [Zhan Long] has to do its best! Your opponent is Jiu Li City, there is a countless number of big guilds, like [Legend], [House of Prestige] and [Judgement]. The pressure on Ba Huang City is extremely heavy. On top of that, losing the War of the Cities would mean giving away a bunch of wonderful opportunities to the opponent……”
I laughed out, “Don’t worry, I’ll do my best. Ba Huang isn’t that weak either, we have [Vanguard], [Prague] and our [Zhan Long]. On top of that, the new power – [Enemies at the Gate] – is more or less enough to trip Jiu Li City up a little.”
Dong Cheng swiped her phone screen a few times, then suddenly exclaimed, “Xiao Yao…. Jiu Li City, those assholes, are just too arrogant! They’ve already declared battle against [Zhan Long?!”
Puzzled, I asked, “What’s the situation?”
Dong Cheng showed me her phone screen, unsurprisingly it was one of the hottest threads on the forum——
[Declaration of Battle]: Ba Huang City’s [Zhan Long], are you prepared to die? (Owner: Bai Li Ruo Feng)
[Content]: Just today, you, Xiao Yao Zi Zai, PK-ed our [House of Prestige]’s Vice Guild Master and a dozen of our brothers. On top of that, you took the Diving Dragon Slaying Arms that Quick Thunder Swift Wind dropped. [House of Prestige] will remember this. We weren’t planning on exacting revenge so quickly, but this City War has given us a big opportunity. That is the way it is, there’s nothing more to explain; you should prepare for battle, Xiao Yao Zi Zai. At this City Battle, [House of Prestige] will massacre [Zhan Long], just you wait!
……
Wan Er rubbed her eyebrows, “This Bai Li Ruo Feng…isn’t he acting a little too aggressive? That [House of Prestige], do they actually think they’re one of the three supreme guilds or something?”
Dong Cheng pursed her lips, “Hm, for them to declare battle against [Zhan Long] like that, must mean that they’re really confident. They even said something like there’s nothing to explain…. Pei….”
I made a fist and smiled, “I wasn’t planning on doing any explaining either. I don’t care if Bai Li Ruo Feng is a good person or not, and I don’t care if [House of Prestige] is a super guild or not, all that matters is the result of the battle. Bullsh*t. After doing something like PKing in the wild, then advocating a false justice, who else would I beat up if not a guild like that!”
“How many people are in [Zhan Long] right now? I heard that…. that there are over 20,000 members of [House of Prestige] online…..” Wan Er worriedly asked.
“We have around 6000 members, and around 90% of them can be online for guild events, which means there will be at least 5000+ of [Zhan Long]’s guild members.” I pondered for a second, then revealed an optimistic smile, “Just enough to win the battle, right?”
