This was not bad news. Bai Mo felt a headache coming on. Ye Ci had died without interrupting the enemy's summoning circle. Although Ye Ci said that there was still some time before the summoning circle was completed, Bai Mo was certain that no one would be able to infiltrate Golden Era's territory and interrupt the summoning circle like Ye Ci did.
Ye Ci could not help but feel a little discouraged. It seemed that they were bound to lose this battle. Golden Era must have known that Upwards Ho! had gathered so many guilds to ambush Ye Ci and Ye Ci's attack on Desolate City. But even so, Golden Era still insisted on attacking Desolate City today. They must have some sort of trump card up their sleeves. Sure enough, it was a trump card. Moreover, it was a trump card in Golden Era's current state. No one would be able to fight against a summoned creature at this stage of the game. It was just like how Ye Ci's Holy Dragon was invincible before Mithril was common.
A monster that required 32 players to summon was definitely a monster. Not only was its level high, but its attack power was also very high. Golden Era was not only planning to conquer the Desolate City of Sodom, but also to lure Upwards Ho! and the other guilds' main forces into the Desolate City of Sodom. Even if they could not reduce the enemy's level by much, they would at least be able to pick up a lot of equipment. The crux of this plan was to trick Ye Ci.
Bai Mo discussed this matter with Ye Ci and finally understood the reason behind Breeze's trap. He could not help but let out a long sigh. As expected of Breeze. He did not become the leader of Golden Era just by luck. There was no doubt about his ability to control the guild. Who would have thought that his cunning mind would be even more chilling? He knew that Ye Ci would definitely scout the camp. He also knew that Ye Ci would try to interrupt the summoning circle. He also knew that Ye Ci would think that he was the main Summoner and try to kill him.
He knew all of this. That was why he easily defeated Ye Ci. He also destroyed all of Up Everyday's hopes of a counterattack. "
"What else can we do now?" Bai Mo let out a long sigh. To be honest, he was not resigned to his fate.
Ye Ci thought for a moment. She could not think of a way to turn the situation around no matter how hard she tried. In the end, she reluctantly said, "Wait a moment. I'll take a look at the situation. If it doesn't work, we'll have to retreat."
"I'm really unwilling." Bai Mo muttered.
"What else can we do?" Ye Ci was still staring at the summoning circle. Even though she could not tell the color of the summoning circle in her black and white vision, the light it emitted was much brighter than before. It seemed like it would take less than an hour for the summoning circle to be born. "Even if you're unwilling to give up, you can't just use so many people's lives and levels to fill it up. Besides, even if you fill it up, it won't be enough. It's better not to try something like this."
"Alright, I got it. Continue observing the situation. I'll contact you later." Bai Mo sighed helplessly.
The two ended the call, and Bai Mo slammed his fist on the ground as he let out a long sigh. The higher-ups beside him could tell what had happened without even asking. Timely Rain frowned as he looked at Bai Mo's expression. He looked around and realized that everyone was curious about what had happened. However, no one dared to be the first to ask questions in such a tense atmosphere. Thus, he had no choice but to be the first to ask questions. He asked, "Old Mo, what's the matter? Is it bad news? "
"Yup." Bai Mo nodded. He looked at everyone and said, "Gongzi You's ambush failed. The summoning circle was not destroyed. Furthermore …" He paused and frowned, "Furthermore, she died."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression changed. Gongzi You's stealth and detection abilities were second in the entire Eastern Continent. If she claimed to be the second best, then no one would dare to claim to be the best. If she died, then it would be futile no matter who they sent in. Not only that, but Gongzi You's corpse was also surrounded by players. It would be impossible to rescue her corpse.
"Who did you say died?" Just when everyone was silent, a pleasant voice sounded from behind Bai Mo.
Everyone jerked their heads towards the source of the voice, and they were shocked to see a cloaked figure standing less than an arm's length behind Bai Mo. The cloaked figure slowly removed his hood as he spoke, revealing a head of silvery hair that emitted a gentle glow. He slowly lifted his head to look at everyone, and a faint smile appeared on his face. However, there was no warmth in his smile. Instead, a chilling aura swept across everyone's body. Who else could it be other than Fleeting Time?
Of course, Fleeting Time was not the only reason why they were shocked. More importantly, how did a player from a hostile continent like him manage to sneak up on them despite being surrounded by multiple layers of defenses? A chill ran down Bai Mo's spine. Fortunately, this person was only an enemy of Upwards Ho!, and Gongzi You. With his capabilities, it would be a piece of cake for him to sneak in and assassinate all the higher-ups of Upwards Ho!.
If Bai Mo could see it coming, then so could the rest of the higher-ups. Their faces turned pale when they saw him, and beads of sweat rolled down their foreheads. Bai Mo pursed his lips, "How did you get here?"
It was apparent that Fleeting Time did not want to answer Bai Mo's question, "Who did you say died?"
"Your wife, of course. She led the charge into Golden Era's encampment, but …" Fruit Jelly frowned and scratched her head, "We don't know what happened to her, but we do know that she's being taken care of by a lot of people."
Bai Mo rolled his eyes at Jelly's answer. He glanced at Jelly, This woman … He immediately said to Jelly, "It's one thing to be married! What do you mean by 'wife'?"
Jelly and the rest exchanged comforting glances without saying a word. Fleeting Time, on the other hand, was in a good mood after being addressed by Jelly. He put his hood back on, ignored Bai Mo, and turned to leave, "I'll go retrieve her corpse."
"Are you sure?" Bai Mo leaned forward in disbelief when he heard Fleeting Time's words.
Fleeting Time smiled, "She's my woman. Of course I won't let so many people keep an eye on her." After saying that, his figure flashed and disappeared before everyone's eyes. His speed was so fast that everyone present was dumbfounded. This was the top-notch concealment and tracking ability. It was really too shocking to be able to move at such a fast speed.
Bai Mo was the first to react. He snorted at the spot where Fleeting Time had disappeared, "Your woman … She sure knows how to boast."
Ye Ci laid on the grass and looked around with her limited field of vision. It was very tiring. Everything was black and white, and it gave her a headache. She suddenly sympathized with those who were color-blind. Ye Ci was observing the summoning formation when a person suddenly appeared in front of her.
To be honest, this was a horrifying thing to hear. Even someone like Ye Ci was shocked by the situation. Think about it, when a person was looking around in boredom, a big face suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. A pair of dull dead fish eyes stared at his big eyes. This was really not an easy thing to accept. Then, she looked around and saw a few more people fall down. The people who were guarding around her suddenly panicked. It looked like a mess.
Not only that, but Breeze also rushed in front of her. He looked around and shouted, "Everyone with a Perception of 200 or more, come here and investigate! We must find this person! "
Chaos ensued. Ye Ci's vision was limited. She wanted to know what was going on, but she could not move as a "corpse". She could only see a small area in front of her eyes. She could see Golden Era players running around in panic, and skills of different colors were being cast at her. Meanwhile, the Summoners in the nearby Summoning Magic Array appeared abnormally nervous. It was as if something major had happened.
Something must have happened, or they wouldn't be panicking like this. Ye Ci was sure of it, but what could have happened? She had no idea. As Ye Ci lay there, she suddenly saw her "corpse" being lifted into the air. W-what's going on?
Ye Ci's "corpse" was quickly lifted into the air. She could only see the angry faces of the Golden Era players flashing across her vision. A moment later, her "corpse" seemed to have landed somewhere else. She then saw a smiling face with eyes as beautiful as peach blossoms, "Little Gongzi, we meet again."
Ye Ci was stunned. Her mind was not working well. After a moment of silence, a string of words appeared above her corpse, "Why are you here?"
"Because you're here." Fleeting Time carried Ye Ci in his arms as he made his way to the encampment of Up Everyday. He had already relayed the situation to Bai Mo through Green Hill's Moon when he arrived at Golden Era's encampment. He had also informed Bai Mo of his plan to rescue Ye Ci. Fleeting Time headed straight to the encampment of Up Everyday after looting Ye Ci's corpse. Both his Phoenix and Fleeting Time were powerful, but he was only one person. And he was carrying a corpse with him. It was not wise for him to fight against the aerial cavalry of Golden Era. The best thing for him to do was to run back to the encampment as soon as possible.
Ye Ci was speechless at Fleeting Time's words, "Didn't I tell you? You can just help Bai Mo if anything happens. Why are you here? It's not worth it if you end up dying here. "
Fleeting Time continued to fly with his Phoenix as he directed it to unleash a few powerful skills on his pursuers. He then replied to Ye Ci nonchalantly, "It's not worth it. I'm not a man if I don't come and loot your corpse."
Ye Ci was at a loss for words. She could only stare at Fleeting Time's handsome side profile and let out a sigh. But for some reason, there was a part of her heart that was filled with joy. It was just a small part of her heart, but it was still joy.
More and more pursuers were coming after them, and it was starting to feel like the sky was blotting out the sky. Fleeting Time furrowed his eyebrows and glanced at the players behind him. He clicked his tongue in annoyance and tossed a large bottle of Haste Potion to Phoenix. A moment later, Phoenix's speed was boosted once again. Ye Ci could not see what was going on, but the sound of the wind in her ears told her just how fast the Phoenix was.
It did not take long for the pursuers to be left far behind. Fleeting Time chuckled proudly, "Do you think I'm only good at assassination? Actually, I'm best at running away. "
Ye Ci was speechless. She looked up at the sky, and felt that the so-called Gods were not high and mighty at all. Really, this was completely different from what she had imagined in her previous life. It turned out that the Almighties were all people with no moral integrity.
After flying for some time, Ye Ci suddenly noticed a large number of figures flashing past her, "What's wrong?"
"Our reinforcements are here." Fleeting Time smiled as he looked at the aerial cavalry from Up Everyday, Wolf Pack, World Conqueror, and the Tang Dynasty that flew past him. He did not care if they would clash with Golden Era, and continued to descend with Ye Ci in tow. When they arrived at a relatively safe location, he jumped down from the Phoenix's back with Ye Ci's corpse in his arms and placed her on the ground. He then looked up and spoke into the distance, "Come and revive me."
A white holy light then enveloped Ye Ci's body. Just as she was about to choose the option to revive, a deep voice suddenly rang out in her monochrome world, "Elf, you seem to be in trouble."
