Suddenly, just then, the deafening system announcement blared across the Bonus Area.
“Hey! Congratulations! The player Midsummer Rose who came from the Huaxia District got an artifact reward through the lucky draw machine–the Sage Staff.”
“Hey! Congratulations! The player Midsummer Rose who came from the Huaxia District got an artifact reward through the lucky draw machine–the Sage Staff.”
“Hey! Congratulations! The player Midsummer Rose who came from the Huaxia District got an artifact reward through the lucky draw machine–the Sage Staff.”
The system announcement repeated for three times. This caused thousands of players from various theaters to fall into silence in the Bonus Area.
Immediately, after a short silence, the huge noise was almost deafening, and everyone rushed toward the lucky draw machine in the first place!
This was an artifact! It was finally born!
Basically, all the people who participated in the server-wide event came for the artifact. Even though they knew it was a slim chance of getting the artifact, they still dreamed of getting it. Now that the artifact was finally born, of course, everyone wanted to see it as early as possible!
Xiao Feng was also included. He didn’t think that the artifact was really drawn by Liu Qiangwei! Thereupon, he followed the crowd toward the lucky draw machine.
“Where is she?”
However, when he squeezed into the innermost part, he found that there was no fairy figure of Liu Qiangwei in front of the lucky draw machine.
“Where did she go?”
When Xiao Feng was in a hurry, he saw that Si Yejing was beside him at the same time. So he immediately grabbed Si Yejing’s shoulder and asked where Liu Qiangwei was.
“What’s up? You’re hurting me! My cousin has already logged off.” Si Yejing grumbled.
Si Yejing grumbled. She slapped Xiao Feng’s hand away from her, and rubbed the shoulder.
What she said did not attract the attention of others, because at this moment this place had been surrounded by players who were excited to look for Liu Qiangwei everywhere.
Turning his head around, Xiao Feng frowned. There were a lot of people everywhere. He probably understood why Liu Qiangwei would log off in the first place.
Although he knew that Liu Qiangwei wouldn’t pocket the artifact, he was still a bit uneasy as he didn’t take the artifact in his hand as soon as possible.
“Hey! There was only three minutes left until the end of the event! Please spend the Treasure Points you owned as soon as possible to redeem rewards!”
Another system announcement sounded. The countless players who gathered around the lucky draw machine suddenly dispersed and hurriedly spent the rest of their points.
Thousands of players in the Bonus Area were active again, all rushing to the redeeming NPCs and spending the remaining points. No one was interested in the popular lucky draw machines as before.
It was mainly because the hit rate of the lucky draw machine was obviously too low and so many people competing for it were all for the artifact. Since the artifact was drawn, there were few players who were interested in the machine.
The Transmission Formation for retreating from the activity site was in the middle of the Bonus Area, where had been blocked by the players of the Joint Theater converging around the redeeming NPCs.
Only a few hundred players left in the Huaxia District were not in a hurry, because they had already exchanged their rewards. After all, they had been hogging the area for so long that they were already very familiar with the reward exchange process, and wouldn’t hesitate to choose something like the players in the Joint Theater.
Hundreds of players excitedly discussed the newest artifact together. The server had a total of three artifacts, and these three belonged to the Huaxia District. It was a glory for the players in the Huaxia District.
At the same time, Midsummer Rose, the winner, as well as the Midsummer Guild which she belonged to, was under discussion. Thus, it was not hard to imagine that “Midsummer” would become more famous among those high-level players.
One thing was also mentioned, that was, the artifact obtained in this activity. Although its property remained unknown, judging from the name of Sage Staff and the profession of Midsummer Rose as priest, the artifact was probably a weapon of priest. It must be either a wand or a scepter.
And yet when it came to an artifact weapon used by a priest, it definitely attracted Master Healer the most in the Huaxia District, even in the server.
“Who do you all think this artifact will belong to?”
“As is an artifact that priests all dreamed of, Master Healer must be dying for it.”
Hence, some players started to guess who would have the artifact in the end. The Midsummer Guild was undeniably strong, but it still lagged far behind the Glory Guild. Nevertheless, Master Healer’s strength was visibly apparent to the whole Huaxia District, whom even the Glory Guild was unable to do any harm to, not mention the Midsummer Guild.
If Master Healer intended to go at the Midsummer Guild for the sake of the artifact, the Midsummer Guild would finally be brought down.
Such thing didn’t happen for the first time. For instance, at the first Encampment Defensive War that the Midsummer Guild participated in, the players present here all knew their failure to guard its station was due to the underhand tactics by Master Healer.
And it was obvious to all the players in Huaxia District how destructive the failure of the Encampment Defensive War was to the Midsummer Guild. It was even fair to say that it had suffered a major damage.
If such things happened for several more times, the Midsummer Guild would not be able to hold out and even fall apart as a result.
Therefore if Master Healer really did have his eyes set on the artifact, the Midsummer Guild would never be able to stop him, which meant that they either had to give it to him or pass it to someone else.
In that case, the artifact would become a hot potato. Whoever got it would be the target of Master Healer and basically rival against him. Probably, very few players of the Huaxia District dared to take it.
“Things might change for the better because I found the relationship between Master Healer and Midsummer Rose is rather unusual. The other day, I saw that he asked for a skill book from her and she gave him without a second thought.”
“Or he might threaten her, damn it! She was the first goddess in our Huaxia District! How could she submit to his threats?”
“This is unforgivable! Utterly unforgivable”
Yet some players held different opinions about it. Thus an outcry spread among this group of people in Huaxia District.
Owing to the fact that Xiao Feng was not far away, no one dared to speak loudly lest they should irritate him because it was quite apparent that he was not in a good mood.
In fact, Xiao Feng was not in a good mood indeed, because he just texted Liu Qiangwei via the linked internal communication channel of Myth. He had got her phone number before.
However, Liu Qiangwei didn’t give any reply at all, which made Xiao Feng frown. Wasn’t this woman too arrogant?
“Hey! The Treasure Hunt officially comes to an end! Thank you all for participation! The Treasure Island is about to disappear. All the players on this island must leave via the Transmission Formation as soon as possible.”
There went the system announcement again, and with the music, it meant that the activity was officially over.
The whole island, at this moment, began to shake, as if it was sinking, while the Magic Formation in the Bonus Area and the exchanging NPC vanished one after another.
But right now, thousands of players fell into a silence simultaneously, in which the sound of a falling needle could be very clear.
Because the disappearance of the Magic Formation meant the disappearance of the Safe Zone.
That was to say, the protective screen, which separated hundreds of players of the Huaxia District and thousands of players coming from the Joint Theater who were left in the Bonus Area, no longer existed.
“It was interesting, surround the Transmission Formation, and don’t let each one of these guys from Huaxia District run away alive.”
The God of Thunder was the first one to step out, and directly walked in the way leading to the Transmission Formation, which was in the direction of the Joint Theater. He sneered at the hundreds of Huaxia District’s players.
“What is that saying in Huaxia? Pay him in his own coin. It’s really interesting.”
The second man to stand up was Firestorm Tyrant. Together with the God of Thunder, he stood in the way that led towards the Transmission Formation.
“In this activity, Huaxia District gave us a big surprise, but I wonder if there will be still a bigger surprise. We all know that the three artifacts are in the hands of these people.”
“I wonder how high the drop rate of the artifact is.”
“You dream of defeating the Joint Theater with your tiny strength of a single theater. How shortsighted you are! How dare you try to dominate the Bonus Area! Hum!”
“Today, we will show you guys from Huaxia District what you should do and what you shouldn’t do.”
“If we beat all the Huaxia District’s players hard back home, which will become a legend. To wipe a large theater in the server-wide activity is such a triumph for us.”
“Hum! Kill them! Kill them all!”
Thousands of players from the Joint Theater made the Transmission Formation invisible behind them. They all sneered and looked at the hundreds of Huaxia District’s players who were so close to them. Everyone was surrounded with a murderous atmosphere.
The remaining Huaxia District’s players were all greatly shocked because nobody anticipated the sudden disappearance of the Safe Zone. The situation at that moment was extremely unfavorable for the Huaxia District.
With a quake and sinking of the Treasure Island, thousands of players were divided into two camps.
Hundreds of players in one camp looked all depressed and gloomy. They were Huaxia District’s players.
On the contrary, the people of the other camp outnumbered by 9 times, reaching thousands of players, all of whom held a grudge and killing intent for the players of the Huaxia District.
As to some minor districts that didn’t want to get involved, such as the South African District. They had realized that situation was not going well, so they didn’t dare to intervene and all left via the Transmission Formation.
However, the players of the Joint Theater were too busy to attend to this. They locked their eyes on the Huaxia District’s players.
There were some Huaxia District’s players trying to log off sneakily, but instantly, they were targeted by numerous players of the Joint Theater and had no other choice but to get into battle.
“Go ahead! They tried to escape!”
“Don’t let off a single one!”
