Ye Ci's voice wasn't loud, but it was enough to silence the crowd. It was as if time had been frozen. Everyone stared at Ye Ci with a blank expression on their faces.
Ye Ci was not used to such a reaction. Even if she had done something in the past, she had never thought of herself as someone special. Moreover, the players Up Everyday and the people she interacted with had never reacted in such a way. Ye Ci felt as if she was an alien.
"It's really Gongzi You …"
Someone sighed after a long while. Ye Ci heaved a sigh of relief when she heard someone speak. She thought that she could finally be free from this situation. However, she did not expect that many players would start spamming the map channel, "Everyone, gather at the West Gate! Gongzi You will be leading the counterattack against the Northern Continent players! "
"Is it really Gongzi You?"
"Are you for real? Don't lie to us! "
The map channel exploded. Some were hesitant, while others were excited. Of course, there were even more players who set aside their tasks and headed to Dark Clay City's west gate to join in on the fun. However, this wasn't the worst part. What was even more ridiculous was the fact that many players who had gathered at the west gate had begun to discuss this matter with their Guilds. This attracted even more players who had nothing better to do than rush to this map.
Although it was said that they were here to take part in this operation to eliminate the Northern Continent players and prevent the Eastern Continent players from being bullied, they were more or less here to join in the fun.
In an instant, the originally quiet Swamp of Sorrows map channel became as lively as Champion City.
However, this was not a big deal. What really gave Ye Ci a headache was yet to come. Not long after, she saw thousands of players rushing towards the West Gate. Originally, Ye Ci thought that since there were so many people here to help, it would be better to avoid unnecessary trouble. However, she didn't expect that after these people arrived at West Gate, she would realize how wrong she was.
There were always such people in the world. They were not afraid of death, nor were they afraid of losing equipment or levels. As long as there was enough exciting news, as long as there was enough exciting gossip, they would be willing to work for you.
From the looks of it, Ye Ci suddenly realized that she had become a hot topic of gossip and fresh news. She was stuck in the middle of the crowd, and she felt an unprecedented awkwardness. Really. She had never been watched by so many people at such a close distance. The scene was really a sea of people, and it was very spectacular. Not only that, but many players even ran to her side and posed for photos to commemorate her.
For a moment, Ye Ci felt like she was a landmark or a sculpture in a scenic spot. She had completely become an omnipotent background. This was not the worst. There was even a player beside her who had started to take photos. At this moment, Ye Ci felt that it was not surprising to describe her life in black.
More and more people were gathering. Ye Ci knew that she could not allow this to continue. She cleared her throat and spoke to the player who was maintaining order, "Excuse me, may I know your name?"
This was an Elf with blonde hair and blue eyes. He was probably a foreign player. His deep facial features were very attractive. When he heard someone calling him, he turned around and saw that it was Ye Ci. He quickly replied, "My, my name is Cactus. Gongzi You, what's the matter?"
"Oh, I just wanted to ask. Are you guys gathering here to counterattack the Northern Continent players?" Ye Ci had always left some leeway for people who had no relationship with her and might never see her again. After all, no one knew if they would still be in contact with her in the future. Leaving leeway for others was also leaving leeway for herself.
At this moment, Cactus seemed to have remembered the main purpose of gathering people here. They were not here to take photos or have intimate contact with a god. They were here to fight against the Northern Continent players who were behaving atrociously in the Swamp of Sorrows. He paused for a moment, then tried to hide his embarrassment, "Yes, yes, we are here to fight to the death with the Northern Continent players."
"Then I would like to ask, who is the commander of this battle?" Ye Ci nodded in satisfaction. Very good, they did not forget the purpose of gathering here. With this, Ye Ci felt that she could finally accept the fact that she had been surrounded by so many players for such a long time.
"Isn't it you?" Cactus looked at Ye Ci in astonishment. From what he knew, if Ye Ci was able to participate in such a battle, the commander should be a god-like figure. Who else would dare to fight with her for command?
However, Cactus soon realized that he was very wrong. After he finished speaking, the smile on Gongzi You's face suddenly froze. Then, the corners of her mouth twitched stiffly. She did not say anything and just stared at Cactus.
Fortunately, Cactus was a quick-witted person. He immediately smiled and said, "Ah ah, the commander? I'll go ask that guy." As he spoke, he pointed at the tall human riding on a date red horse. He gave Gongzi You an apologetic smile, turned around, and ran away.
Ye Ci watched as Cactus spoke to the human for a long time. As he spoke, the human turned around to look at her. After a short while, the human rode towards her and nodded slightly, "Hello, Gongzi You. I'm Purity Essence."
Purity Essence? Ye Ci was slightly stunned. She immediately shifted her gaze to his face and carefully studied his face. That's right, it was indeed Purity Essence. Although there were no scars on his face due to a certain quest, she could still vaguely tell that it was Purity Essence.
No wonder she could not recognize him. It turned out that Purity Essence had not completed the quest yet. Ye Ci's lips twitched, revealing a faint smile.
Ever since the advent of online games, there were quite a few players with the name Purity Essence. This made the originally impressive name a little tacky. However, in Ye Ci's past life, when a player named Purity Essence was mentioned, only one person would come to mind.
It was the lvl70 Human Priest who soloed the lvl85 World Rare Boss, Flood Serpent. Of course, it was the man standing in front of Ye Ci.
It was that battle that made Purity Essence famous. From then on, he went from an unknown Priest to a famous High Priest in the Eastern Continent. He was even ranked high on the Priest of Fate's Leaderboard.
However, he was a low-key player who rarely appeared in public. Ye Ci only knew him because they were in the same group as each other during a PVP tournament. The two of them fought in the same group for three days before they finally had the chance to talk about each other.
It was then that Ye Ci found out that Purity Essence was not a Priest at the start. He was mainly a Commander. However, his Commander did not seem to be doing well. Ye Ci had asked Green Hill's Moon about this after the tournament. In fact, it was not that Purity Essence's Commander was bad. It was that he had encountered a trashy party. Not only did the party members not cooperate, they were also in a state of disarray. Everyone would fight each other over a piece of equipment. Such a party naturally caused Purity Essence's Commander ranking to fall.
Even though Ye Ci was a cold person in her past life, she still felt a sense of familiarity towards him. She blinked and nodded. It was rare for her to take the initiative to extend her hand, "Hello."
Cactus was slightly moved by this gesture. In comparison, Purity Essence was much calmer. He extended his hand and politely shook Ye Ci's hand before letting go, "I heard from Cactus that you're not planning to take part in this battle's Commander?"
"I've rarely been a Commander, and I don't think I'll be able to command so many people." Ye Ci said half-truthfully.
Purity Essence did not say anything, but Cactus was flabbergasted. Gongzi You's Commander videos had always been a hot topic on the forums. Her Commander's Commander was direct and efficient. There was no superfluous words. Her Commander's Commander was also very sharp. It was something that many Commanders could not achieve. That was why most Commanders would learn from her Commander videos. Cactus could not believe that such a person was saying that she could not command.
"It can't be. There are so many videos of you commanding on the forums …"
Ye Ci turned to look at Cactus and said, "Commanding an Instance Dungeon and commanding a Battle Commander are two different things. I don't think I have the ability to command a Battle Commander. "
Since Ye Ci had already said so, Cactus naturally would not continue to ask Ye Ci to command. He turned his gaze to Purity Essence, "Purity …"
"If Gongzi You doesn't mind, I'll be the Battle Commander." Purity Essence nodded. He did not find Ye Ci's words inappropriate. In the original game, he was also a Commander. Although he was still a Commander in the guild, it was his first time facing such a big battle. He was not sure if he could handle it. He could have rejected the offer, but for some reason, when Gongzi You stared at him with eyes as sharp as knives, he could not refuse. (To be continued.)
