Samsara Online

Chapter 190 The strongest party (2)



[Ding!... Server Announcement: All players in the China Battle Zone pay attention... The three-mission system event has officially started due to a player's action. The event will consist of three different parts and each completed part will reward the opening of one of the three corresponding systems; Scout System, Alliance System, and Pet System.

The first mission available and currently the only one is 'Dragon's Revenge'. The objective of the players will be to defend the city without allowing the monster waves to overcome the city walls. During the mission, NPCs will not be able to attack or defend against the attacking monsters, so the defense of Eminentis City will be left to all players. The players who are part of the mission are all those who are inside Eminentis City or in a property within a radius of 10 kilometers.

Reward: Opening of the Alliance System. Players will be able to form guilds or mercenary groups and build their own forces. More explanations will be given when the Dragon's Revenge mission officially starts.]

The announcement of the system stopped abruptly after those last words and the Chinese server went silent for a few seconds before the crowd of players burst out shouting with fervor.

The start of the three-part event had finally officially begun! Moreover, it also meant that the competition between the countries had also officially begun. Not only China, all the different battle zones of the world; America Battle Zone, Japan Battle Zone, Russian Battle Zone, European Union Battle Zone, Vatican Battle Zone, and so on... All the players in the world began to move lively to complete the respective system missions!

Everyone wanted to put their name in the history books! Everyone wanted to win honor for their countries! Each and every player of Samsara Online wanted to stand out from the rest and make themselves known to the whole world!

Naturally, accomplishing such a goal was not at all simple. Among billions of players, only a maximum of three players per battle zone had a chance to engrave their name in the Hall of Fame.

However, while the players were celebrating and getting excited, the NPCs had a heavy look on their faces. This was naturally due to the fact that during the 'Dragon's Revenge' mission, none of them could defend themselves.

Now, the NPCs could only place all their hopes on the overwhelming number of players, but still weak, to protect their homes and their lives; because the death of an NPC meant absolute death! After all, they could not revive like the players!

King Hu Yi's face did not look too good at this time either. As he looked up, as if his gaze could pierce through the luxurious palace roof and see the sky and clenched his fists, he finally let out a complicated sigh and shook his head as he muttered:

"This is really a punishment..?"

Although Xie Feng was not 100% sure, he had his own thoughts regarding King Hu Yi's almost inaudible muttering. Ever since Xie Feng talked to the Beginner Village Guardian and received the opportunity to challenge one of the 2 final quests of the game, ever since Xie Feng obtained the title Creator of Myth, he realized that probably, in the near future, he and the nobleman in front of him would not be able to chat quietly as they did just moments ago.

As for whether Xie Feng's thoughts were wrong or not, it depended purely on what kind of decisions he would make along the way.

Xie Feng left the King's Palace shortly after the announcement of the system.

King Hu Yi entrusted him with the task of obtaining the antidote from the body of the Fatal Poisonous Commodus Dragon to cure the poison that was consuming his son's life. According to King Hu Yi's estimation, the remaining life time of the little prince was a maximum of 50 hours. That was probably also why the time limit of the mission was only 48 hours, since after 2 days, there was no point in continuing with the mission because Hu Zheng's life would have come to the end.

Xie Feng quickly walked to the south gate of the city to meet Xie Yao and the rest. It had been about twenty minutes since the call between the two had ended, so his three college classmates were probably cursing him for taking so long.

While laughing to himself, Xie Feng suddenly saw a somewhat fat man outside a store, and upon seeing the name of the store, Xie Feng paused for a moment before finally walking towards the fat man.

The fat man was the manager of the Eminentis City Warehouse.

Ever since Xie Feng left the Beginner Village he never had any free time. Long and difficult missions, fighting terrifying monsters, spending time with his two beauties, worrying about business in the real world, etc. He was simply too busy so there were many things he couldn't do.

For example, everyone's inventory was 100 slots at the beginning of the game; in those 100 slots, players could store only 100 items, the exception being potions, herbs, minerals, scrolls, and all sorts of consumables which could be stacked up to a maximum of 200 per slot. However, upon arriving in the main city, players could go to the warehouse to expand their inventory to 200 slots!

The reason why Xie Feng had not bothered so far was that besides being busy, his mind never thought about it since the space in his inventory was always enough because he sold or threw away all the items he considered as trash. But recently Xie Feng's inventory was starting to look a bit cramped; bronze, silver, and a few gold equipments were shining everywhere.

Thanks to the amount of high-level monsters and high-ranked bosses that Xie Feng killed, the amount of equipment and valuable items he obtained on a daily basis was enough to make anyone drool. Precisely because he knew that those items were valuable he was not willing to throw them away and, since he was just passing through, he might as well expand his inventory to double in size quickly and then continue on his way.

The fat man had a frightened look on his face, as did most of the NPCs Xie Feng had seen after leaving the King's Palace. They were all shaken by the system's announcement.

"Young man, what can I help you with?" Although he was frightened by the impending danger, the fat man quickly recovered when he saw a customer approaching and his two eyes lit up like two gold coins.

"Help me expand my inventory space to 200." After saying that, Xie Feng took out a hundred gold coins from his inventory.... This was an amount that only a handful of players could afford at this stage of the game, but Xie Feng would probably be so daring to spend so much just to expand his inventory in the early stages.

The warehouse manager quickly got to work when he saw the bag of money in Xie Feng's hands. Since the most he could increase was 100 spaces, the total value was one hundred gold coins... For each extra space, players had to pay 1 gold coin, which was actually quite a hefty price considering that 1 gold coin would be equivalent to 1 Chinese yuan when the currency exchange system officially opened.

After expanding his inventory, Xie Feng thanked the store manager and quietly left to meet his friends and his wives.
