Li Huailin's response was good. However, he only responded to Zhang Youdong's words in person. Li Huailin then turned around and began a discussion with the NPC beside him. Of course, the purpose of the discussion was to verify Zhang Youdong's words. Although Zhang Youdong said that they couldn't get out, Li Huailin couldn't completely believe what they said. So he had to discuss with the NPC first.
"Yes, Lord Oracle. We can't get out either." Waitrus also confirmed Zhang Youdong's words. It seemed that this aspect was indeed as Li Huailin expected. The programmers were indeed trapped in this place. This was, of course, a good thing for Li Huailin.
"Hmm, I'll think of a way." Of course, Li Huailin said the same to Waitrus and the others. He then told them to watch over the programmers. After saying goodbye to Zhang Youdong, Li Huailin left the temple.
After leaving the Shrine, Li Huailin once again appeared at his original spot. He had tested it out earlier, but the version upgrade did not seem to have any effect on his Shrine. Everything was the same as before.
Considering the current situation, first of all, the programmers had been identified as NPCs. Li Huailin felt that there was still a difference between them and NPCs. At least, Li Huailin didn't think that if he slapped them, their Favorability towards him would increase. It should be said that their physique might be closer to that of NPCs. The changes were relatively significant. The most obvious example was that Li Huailin could now see the programmers' names above their heads. Yes, players wouldn't display their names. Only NPCs would display their names above their heads. So, Zhang Youdong's words could basically be believed.
However, the displayed names were useless. The displayed names were obviously their in-game names. For example, Zhang Youdong's displayed name was Satchka. Li Huailin had heard of this name before. It was obviously Zhang Youdong's in-game name in the other world. He still couldn't tell who the programmers were. The rest of the programmers also displayed a mess of names. There were even some funny names like "Wearing Underpants and Not Recognizing People". If this guy knew that his random online name would really become his name, he would probably cry to death.
In short, although the changes in the programmers surprised Li Huailin, he could still accept it. After stabilizing the situation here, Li Huailin began to pay attention to another update, which was about the situation of the old race. For the time being, Li Huailin didn't know if the Evil Demons and the others had fought with the Celestial race. He had to go back and observe the situation first.
Li Huailin tried to use a Return Scroll. Although they had been to a city in the other game world, they shouldn't be able to record the return point in the other world. After all, they couldn't even record other system messages. Moreover, the city should have been destroyed. Therefore, if the Return Scroll could not return to the previous record point, it would return to the previous record point. Previously, Li Huailin and the others had departed from the main city.
Sure enough, as Li Huailin expected, a white light flashed, and Li Huailin appeared in the main city of the Celestial race, Blessed City. As soon as he returned, Li Huailin saw a sea of players.
Yes, there were too many players around Li Huailin. The number was shocking. Looking at this situation, Li Huailin was slightly taken aback. Although this was a main city area and the Six Races had the most players, as players reached higher levels, the area around a main city was no longer suitable for players to level up. Hence, unless players were here to trade for supplies, they shouldn't be here in such numbers. Even though the servers had just opened, and many players were returning to the main city, this number was still a little too much. After giving the matter some thought, Li Huailin concluded that something must have happened.
"Hey, wait up," Li Huailin called out to a player beside him. The player was an ordinary Warrior. Judging by his equipment, he should be around Level 70. He obviously wasn't a tycoon. Moreover, his equipment was average. Moreover, he seemed to be traveling alone. When the player heard someone call out to him, he was slightly stunned. However, when he turned around and saw Li Huailin, he recognized him immediately.
Yes, Li Huailin was very famous. Of course, almost everyone could recognize him. Only, the situation was a little chaotic, so nobody paid attention to Li Huailin.
"Brother Awesome? You're looking for me? "the player asked excitedly. After all, he had just met a famous person.
"Yeah. What's going on here? Why are there so many people? They seem pretty busy," Li Huailin said.
"Oh, the new patch is online. Everyone here is looking for main quests," the player said immediately. "Brother Awesome, you should have seen the new patch, right? It seems that we're fighting the 'old race.' However, we don't know much about them, so everyone has come to the main city to ask for information. I'm here to ask around. I didn't expect there to be so many people."
"Hmm …" It was just as Li Huailin had expected. The first reaction of a normal player when they saw this kind of update was that the enemy was from the Old Clan. After some thought, Li Huailin asked, "What do you have?"
"I've only just arrived," the player said. "But my friend told me that we can accept quests in the palace. It should be a new quest. My friend also asked me to accept it and do it together."
"Palace?" Li Huailin was a little surprised. Wasn't that Anthony's quest? Anthony had also assigned a quest. Was it related to the old race?
Originally, Li Huailin wanted to directly teleport back to the Duke's mansion to ask about the situation. However, now that he had heard the news on his way, Li Huailin decided to go to Anthony's place and ask about the situation.
After exchanging a few words, Li Huailin said goodbye to the player and squeezed through the crowd toward the palace. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the inner city, Li Huailin saw a large group of players. Yes, there was a plaza beside the inner city. Anthony had previously given a speech here. Of course, this place was originally used to announce things like the royal leaderboard. Now that the plaza was crowded, it was obvious that this was the place to accept quests.
There were a lot of players here. The inner city was completely surrounded. Li Huailin couldn't be bothered to squeeze with these people. With a flash of golden light, Millet appeared in the air and pulled Li Huailin toward the palace. If an ordinary player summoned their pet and flew into the inner city, they'd most likely be attacked by the city's guards. However, Li Huailin wouldn't. Everyone knew that Li Huailin had arrived when they saw the iconic Golden Dragon. Naturally, nobody would take the initiative to attack him.
"It's Brother Awesome. It seems like he's headed to the palace."
"Brother Awesome is awesome. He's heading to the palace to accept a quest. It's much better than us squeezing in here."
"It seems Brother Awesome is going to accept this quest as well. I can't beat him. It seems the Main Storyline Quest will be completed by Brother Awesome again."
Ignoring the heated discussion among the players, Li Huailin rode Millet to the plaza in front of the palace. Of course, when he arrived, a group of people was already waiting for him. When they saw Li Huailin land, they quickly surrounded him.
"His Majesty, Emperor of the continent. His Majesty was looking for you." An NPC that Li Huailin had never seen before, who seemed to be the captain of the guards, approached Li Huailin.
"Lead the way." Li Huailin waved his hand, and the NPC quickly led Li Huailin into the palace. Their destination should be the inner palace. After walking for a while, Li Huailin saw a familiar person. It was Anthony's Guard Captain, Delnate. When Li Huailin saw Delnate, he knew that Anthony was waiting for him in his room.
As expected, when Li Huailin opened the door, he saw Anthony. Anthony had already received a report that Li Huailin was coming, so he immediately greeted Li Huailin warmly.
"It seems like we can fight side by side again," Anthony said happily.
Of course, Li Huailin couldn't be happy. When Anthony mentioned fighting, Li Huailin had a bad feeling. He immediately asked, "Where is the fight?"
"Huh? You don't know? "Anthony was slightly stunned.
"I haven't been back yet," Li Huailin said. "I just finished an adventure quest. When I returned to the main city to resupply, I heard that something big was going to happen, so I came to ask about it."
"Oh, I see." Anthony nodded. "I thought you came personally to inform us to mobilize the army. I'm already prepared. We can mobilize the entire army at any time."
"Who are we fighting?" Li Huailin asked.
"The Ancients, of course," Anthony said immediately. "Oh, you don't know about the Oracle, do you?"
"Oracle …" Li Huailin frowned. So, it has something to do with the Celestials. "So, the Celestials ordered us to attack the Ancients?"
"Yes." Anthony nodded. "It seems like this is a very big crisis. The Celestials must have encountered a big problem. Otherwise, they wouldn't have ordered all of us to mobilize."
"So, the other countries also received the Oracle?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, the guardian gods of each country have basically issued the same Oracle. It seems that the Ancients' invasion this time is going to be very powerful." Anthony nodded. "I think you should hold a Continental Conference first and integrate all the troops. The battle this time should be very difficult."
"It seems like we really need to hold a Continental Conference." Li Huailin thought for a moment and nodded.
