Chapter 402: Saving the Little Fairy (Part Five)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Because of the Little Fairy, the Pioneer Alliance and Changan City were at loggerheads. This matter spread quickly to all the gamers.

At the distant road intersection outpost, Raintea, who was working hard to save the Little Fairy, also heard the news.

She threw away her pickaxe and dashed out to the wilderness, shouting to attract the attention of Dire Wolves.

She was supposed to shout “Ah, ah, ah!”, but as a Goblin, she was unable to make complex sounds. So, her actual shouts were like “Waaaaah—!” and similar sounds.

Raintea was revived in Eternal Kingdom, and she immediately rushed to the Dungeon Lord Main Hall.

The place was filled with gamers and loud bickering noises. The Dwarf cousins, Simba and Mufasa, came to watch the commotion on their stools. Nobody dared to stand in front of them, because Simba would memorize the green symbols above the gamers who blocked their view.

Who would dare antagonize Simba at the risk of ruining their equipment?

The Little Fairy was imprisoned in a cage that was carried by a Skeleton. Changan City was able to capture the Little Fairy because of Brainiac.

According to an anonymous gamer, Brainiac happened to pass by and enter Changan City’s building. He happened to discover the Little Fairy, so he captured her. Coincidentally, he brought a metal cage with him.

There were too many coincidences in this incident. Some gamers speculated that someone from Changan City must have triggered the Strange Encounter Mission and a series of Chain Missions.

Nobody could confirm the facts since the members of Changan City didn’t come out to clarify things or brag. They just wanted to enter the Dungeon Lord Main Hall.

Raintea tried to push herself through the crowd, but she was pushed back.

It was difficult for a Goblin to push her way through from the back.

Raintea wanted to push through and shout, “Little Fairy!”

Then the Little Fairy could respond by shouting, “Raintea!” However, it wasn’t a movie, and Raintea was unable to make her way through. Even if she shouted anxiously, nobody would hear her over the wild chatting of the crowd.

“If the Dungeon wasn’t a safety zone, there would definitely be bloodshed!”

“The Pioneer Alliance would definitely win and take the Little Fairy mission.”

“Changan City is pretty cool too.”

The door of the Dungeon Lord Main Hall opened, and everyone became silent. Sherlock stood at the doorway and surveyed the surroundings.

“What happened, my respected Lich?” Sherlock asked as he looked at Brainiac, who was holding the Little Fairy.

“Lord Sherlock, I captured the fleeing Little Fairy, but some citizens don’t wish to see the Little Fairy executed, so they blocked the entrance,” Brainiac said respectfully.

“A lot of people aren’t happy with my decision. After all these months, do you trust the Little Fairy?”

The gamers discovered that they could speak and started shouting.

“Don’t kill her! We won’t get any Legendary Equipment. What will happen to our Potion Concoction if the Little Fairy is killed?”

“Release the Little Fairy! We want to learn Potion Concoction!”

“Arthur Bro is awesome! Defeat Sherlie!”

“Brainiac, we didn’t expect you to betray us!”

“Hey, hey, don’t be meddlesome! This is Changan City’s mission!”

“Our chairman said that half of the 100 sets of Legendary Equipment will be given out for free. Those who want to have a set can take part in the lucky draw. There will only be 50 lucky winners!”

“Don’t believe Changan City’s nonsense. They’re deceiving us!”

“You’re making us go for lucky draws? Are you looking down on us? Hey!”

“Arthur said that he’ll provide each full-service gamer that helps block Changan City with an equipment improvement!”

“Gosh! That’s awesome!”

“I support Arthur!”

“The Little Fairy belongs to us! Denounce the execution!”

The gamers shouted angrily, but their voices were muted as they entered Plot Animation Mode.

Sherlock supported his arms in front of his chest as he pondered. Then, he nodded and said, “I understand your intentions. I’m not an unreasonable Dungeon Lord. I have to consider the opinions of both parties. Therefore, we’ll use the traditional way to resolve this.”

Sherlock spread open his hands and announced loudly, “Use the arena to decide on the victor! The winner will have the authority to determine the Little Fairy’s fate. Warriors, her fate lies in your hands. Brainiac will watch over the Little Fairy to prevent her escape.”

Sherlock turned around and returned to the Dungeon Lord Main Hall.

Brainiac bowed in the direction of Sherlock. When the Plot Animation Mode ended, a notice appeared before the gamers.

[Changan City and the Pioneer Alliance Guilds will duel at the Northern Arena after ten hours. There will be three different duels. The winner will decide the fate of the Little Fairy.]

A full-service announcement appeared:

[Full-service gamers can watch the duel at the sides, and bets can be placed. Winners of the bets can obtain large amounts of Reputation Points.]

The Guild War between Changan City and the Pioneer Alliance was no longer between the two Guilds. The winner would decide the direction of the Plot. If Changan City won, the Little Fairy would be dead, and the Guild members would receive 100 sets of Legendary Equipment. If the Pioneer Alliance won, the Little Fairy would be saved, and Changan City’s mission would fail.

A third full-service announcement appeared:

[The first battle is a group battle. The members of Changan City and the Pioneer Alliance will fight in the Northern Underground World Gladiator Arena. The side with zero survivors will be declared the loser!]

“Oh my god, the first battle is a 1,000-person battle?”

“Five hundred vs. five hundred. That’s awesome!”

“Gosh! We can place bets!”

“I bet 10 Silver coins on Changan City winning!”

“Silly dude, they have fought before. The Pioneer Alliance defeated the other Guild decisively. I bet on the Pioneer Alliance to win!”

“It’s hard to say. The previous time, the Pioneer Alliance won because Changan City had just started, and their members were new. Two months have passed, and Changan City has accumulated good equipment. They might just defeat the Pioneer Alliance!”

“Changan City spent a few million to upgrade their equipment and pay out salaries. Their 500 members are all professional gamers. It’s hard to say who will win.”

A crisis had led to an open duel with the help of the Plot.

Though Changan City was unhappy with the Plot, they couldn’t do anything or complain. The game didn’t have top-up channels or advertisements. The game producers had no intention to earn the gamers’ money.

It was unclear how the game made a profit.

The members of the two Guilds dispersed to prepare for the duel. They had ten hours to prepare for the first battle. There would be three duels, but nobody knew the format of the remaining two battles, so it was better to win as many duels as possible.

Raintea paced anxiously outside the crowd. What should she do? Should she concoct more Minor Healing Potions to assist the Pioneer Alliance?

Ten hours wasn’t enough! There wasn’t time to plant the raw materials! Wait, she could accumulate the raw materials using money and Magic Stones!

Raintea ran to the Commerce Area. She headed straight for the Auction area to search for raw materials, but there were only a few raw materials. Even the finished Minor Healing Potions were all being bought.

“Accumulating Minor Healing Potions and their raw materials at high prices. You’ll get higher prices with greater volume! Sell your materials and Potions now!”

Raintea ran over, but the gamer was from Changan City.

Changan City was preparing for battle and accumulating Minor Healing Potions so that the Pioneer Alliance wouldn’t be able to obtain them. It was hard to imagine Changan City wasting their money to deprive the Pioneer Alliance.

Besides concocting Minor Healing Potions, how could Raintea help the Pioneer Alliance?

Raintea stood in a daze, unsure of what to do.

Raintea didn’t know when a kitten appeared beside her. The kitten sat on the ground and said to Raintea, “Meow, meow, I see that you have a Mana Skills Book.”

“Ai?”

“Are you interested in a Strange Encounter Mission to learn about Healing Mana Skills?” the kitten asked as he squinted his eyes and licked his paws.
