At midnight, the system announced the end of the Christmas event. From this second onwards, the Christmas thieves would no longer spawn. The Christmas thieves that spawned wouldn't disappear, but if they were killed, the player wouldn't receive any more points and wouldn't receive any more gifts. As for the gifts that had already dropped, it didn't matter if they picked them up after midnight. It wouldn't affect the rewards. The rewards would last for another 24 hours.
Tyrannical Ambition, Blue Brook Pavilion, Herb Garden, and the other twelve guilds that had cooperated with Ye Xiu were undoubtedly the biggest winners of this Christmas event. Cheers erupted from the bottom of Sin City's clock tower. The cheers could be heard all the way to the sky, but Lord Grim was still standing at the top of the clock tower. He didn't make any movements.
The monsters had already been killed several minutes ago, so Lord Grim could have come down a long time ago. The players were puzzled. They didn't know why he was standing at such a high place, not moving. What was he pretending to do? Tang Rou turned her head to look and discovered that Ye Xiu had already fallen asleep on his seat.
Tang Rou and Chen Guo looked at each other in dismay. A few minutes ago, he didn't seem to be any different! But as soon as the event ended, he instantly fell asleep. His ability to enter a state of mind was too strong.
"Hey hey, you can't hold on for the last few minutes?" Chen Guo mercilessly woke Ye Xiu up.
"Hm?" Ye Xiu was dazed for a moment, "Isn't it over?"
"We haven't picked up the gift bags yet!" Tang Rou said.
"You guys can pick them up!" Ye Xiu said as he flipped over in his seat. It looked like he wanted to change his position and continue sleeping.
"Get up, get up. Go back to your room and sleep." Chen Guo loudly pulled Ye Xiu up.
"Okay okay okay, I'm going back." Ye Xiu supported himself on the table and stood up. He left his seat. It looked like he was floating in the air.
Chen Guo was also shocked when she saw this. For an adult, not sleeping for 36 hours wasn't a serious matter. But looking at Ye Xiu's current state, it looked like he could float to the ground at any moment. Chen Guo thought about it again. In the past 36 hours, what Ye Xiu had done was different from what the others had done. What he had been doing was something that no other player could do. Even if it was a professional expert, it was impossible for him to maintain such a level of performance without paying attention to it. For the past 36 hours, Ye Xiu had maintained a high level of concentration. This mental exhaustion was not something that players like them, who were just trying their luck, could feel.
"Hey!" Seeing Ye Xiu wobble again, Chen Guo hurriedly jumped up and ran over to support him. In the end, Ye Xiu's body tilted a bit before he steadied himself. Afterwards, he shook his head and muttered to himself in astonishment: "I can even fall asleep while walking. I'm really admiring myself more and more … …"
Chen Guo was speechless for a moment. Finally, she chased after him and asked, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine. I'm going to sleep. Help me log out of the game!" Ye Xiu said as he waved his hand.
"I'll help you with the gift! What if you sleep for 24 hours and miss the gift? "Chen Guo liked doing this kind of work.
"Sure, sure!" Ye Xiu smiled and walked towards the stairs. Chen Guo was a little afraid that Ye Xiu would roll up the stairs. However, when she saw that Ye Xiu's footsteps had stabilized, she was afraid that he really hadn't woken up from his sleep. Seeing that he had returned to normal, she didn't pay him any more attention.
She returned to her seat and went to help Ye Xiu hand over the gift. However, when she looked at Lord Grim's perspective: at the top of the clock tower, looking down at the entire city, all the other players were gathered under his feet like ants. The lightning that streaked across the sky seemed to be right next to him, as if he could pick it up with a wave of his hand.
Chen Guo controlled Lord Grim to turn left and right at the top of the clock tower. She was a little reluctant to leave. She had never been to this place before!
It wasn't until Tang Rou gave her a puzzled look that Chen Guo felt a little embarrassed. She coughed lightly and asked, "Are there any more gifts to pick up?"
"There are. Help him pick them up!" Tang Rou said.
"Okay." Chen Guo nodded and opened Lord Grim's equipment. Ye Xiu was stopping the Christmas thieves from climbing up the clock tower, so he used a lot of guns. Right now, the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was in its gun form. Chen Guo looked at the stats and was amazed. Thinking that she was actually using a Silver weapon, Chen Guo couldn't stay calm anymore.
"I'm coming down!" Chen Guo said.
"Go ahead!" Tang Rou said.
Chen Guo was a Launcher after all. Even though she couldn't jump up the clock tower, jumping down wasn't a problem. Chen Guo took one last look at the feeling of being high up in the sky and looking down on all life. Then, she leapt out.
Her character fell rapidly in the drizzle. Chen Guo aimed her gun at the ground and grasped the rhythm. After a few shots, Lord Grim finally landed safely on the ground.
The surrounding guild players were still there! However, everyone had complicated feelings towards Lord Grim. When they saw him jump down, they didn't know how to react.
Chen Guo didn't care about this. She immediately ran over to Han Yanrou to pick up the presents.
The other players had already picked up all the presents. This pile was left for Ye Xiu's group of three. The guild players followed the rules. According to their agreement, they would steal from others, but they would never touch what was meant for Ye Xiu's group.
After picking up these dozen or so stolen presents, Chen Guo and Tang Rou naturally didn't interact with the guild players. Lord Grim and Han Yanrou's bodies were covered with presents. The two ran over to find Santa Claus.
"Where's that girl?" Chen Guo discovered that the Launcher girl had disappeared.
"Oh, she went down." Tang Rou said.
As a result, the two didn't say anything else. They found Santa Claus and handed over their presents. Even though it wasn't her own character, Chen Guo still stared at the system notifications very seriously, constantly checking the rewards she received.
The system would definitely give everyone equal chances of appearing on TV. However, characters like Lord Grim and Han Yanrou's group received so many presents in exchange for so many gift packs. It would undoubtedly increase their chances of appearing on TV. After this entire event, everyone had already appeared on TV so many times that they couldn't even keep count.
Even if they appeared on TV, the rewards might not be that great.
For example, Purple equipment would also be announced by the system. However, these low-level Purple equipment were things that would die after a few levels. They would become obsolete after a few levels. Their value was really limited. As for Orange equipment, they had been announced in the world channel, but Ye Xiu's group had never seen one.
However, even if it was Orange equipment, it couldn't be compared to skill books. These things couldn't be traded. Even if you had money, you would never be able to get them. Ye Xiu's group of three all received skill books from their gift packs after the 36-hour quest ended. Tang Rou's luck was the best. She received a total of 55 skill books. Ye Xiu's group received 45 points. Su Mucheng's group was a bit more dismal. She only received two 5-point minimum skill books. She received a total of 10 points. Luck really was something that wasn't easy to predict. The number of gift packs the three of them received was pretty much the same.
Apart from this, the three of them collected quite a few rare materials. Tang Rou didn't know the value of these items at all. Everyone had been busy with the quest and didn't have time to think about it. For now, they would just keep them for now. When the quest was over, they would sort them out together.
As for the truly insane rewards, that was the experience.
After 24 hours, the three of them had already reached Level 35. During the last 12 hours, they started cooperating with the other guilds. That was when their efficiency began to soar. The last 12 hours were a replica of this efficiency. At this moment, after the quest was over and all the rewards had been exchanged, the three characters had already reached Level 37.
The players from the other guilds started at a higher level. After 24 hours, they were already in the process of rushing from Level 36 to Level 37. Compared to Ye Xiu's group, the number of gifts they had stolen was much lower. The amount of experience they received was also much lower. However, after 12 hours, they had already leveled up to level 38.
Among them, Chen Yehui couldn't help but be mentioned.
He had been helpless the entire time and could only stare blankly at the leaderboards. But at some point, he suddenly discovered that his guild's fifteenth ranked hero had soared. This made him indescribably happy. He thought that a miracle had happened. But after carefully studying it, he wanted to cry, but no tears came out.
How could Excellent Dynasty's characters soar? This was because the players from the top guilds who had been in front of them had quickly gained experience and reached Level 36.
As soon as they reached Level 36, a new Level 36-40 Christmas Hunter leaderboard appeared. These Level 36 characters were automatically placed on this leaderboard. Excellent Dynasty's Level 35 characters had soared through the Level 31-35 leaderboard.
This situation made Chen Yehui extremely gloomy. With this step, it felt as if the two sides were no longer on the same level.
Chen Yehui estimated that with their current speed of eating Steamed Bun Crumbs, they would be able to reach the Level 36-40 leaderboard. However, the fifteen heroes could only be the foundation of the leaderboards.
What made him even more gloomy was that their levels weren't even as high as Lord Grim's group. Those three had come here at Level 31, three levels lower than them! In the end, after the Christmas quest lasted for 36 hours, those three had leveled up six times. Of the ten guilds, eight of them had leveled up four times each. As for Excellent Dynasty, they had only leveled up two times.
Even though compared to the vast majority of players, they were already doing very well, but ….. the vast majority of players weren't the ones that Excellent Dynasty wanted to compete with. The vast majority of players that they wanted to compete with had already left them two levels behind.
Towards this result, Chen Yehui couldn't do anything about it. Even though it was the foundation of the leaderboards, they had still entered the Level 36-40 leaderboards. For example, Samsara, in the end, had still fallen into the Level 31-35 leaderboards.
A higher leveled leaderboard naturally had more benefits.
The higher the level of the leaderboards, the higher the rewards. Not only did the rewards include experience, money, equipment, and materials. The rewards were all items that corresponded to the leaderboards. The Level 36-40 leaderboards were better than the Level 31-35 leaderboards.
"It's all over ….." Looking at the final leaderboards that wouldn't change, Chen Yehui let out a deep sigh. At this moment, he wasn't too upset because this time, he had already admitted that he had lost.
