Unfortunately, the cold winter in the north had arrived as scheduled.
There was not much time left for Lord Chunshen and Di Chen. If they continued to delay, they would not be able to use their troops in the middle of winter in the north. They could only stop.
In that case, Zhang Chu Zhengquan would be able to escape. Who knew what kind of changes would occur in the wilderness next year because of this.
At the end of the conversation, Ouyang Shuo looked at Zhang Yi and said half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Next year, the Chamberlain of Dependencies will step onto the stage. This marquis looks forward to it."
"I will not disappoint the Marquis!"
Zhang Yi's solemn promise was filled with seriousness and passion.
On the 29th December of the second year of Gaia, a system announcement resounded throughout the China server.
"System Announcement: The first expansion pack [Rise Up] has officially been released for one year. On the occasion of the first anniversary, we will conduct a centralized count of the contributions made by the various lords in the annihilation of the rebel army, and give out corresponding rewards as encouragement. As for the specific content, please check it out yourself! "
…
When the announcement came out, the players were in an uproar.
It was only then that everyone realized that, apart from the immediate reward for annihilating the peasant rebels, there was also a chance for a year-end bonus. How could other players, especially adventure-type players, not be envious?
The reward was based on the battle map.
Gaia would convert the contributions of the various Feudal Lords in attacking the four major rebel armies into Contribution Points. After tabulating them, they would convert them into Merit Points as the final reward.
At the same time, the top three Contribution Points would also receive a special reward.
The special reward will be given directly to the individual and will not be made public. All they knew was that the prizes for the champion, runner-up, and third place would be reduced by one level.
Ouyang Shuo clicked on the "year-end bonus" ranking and checked it carefully.
[Rank] – [Name] – [Merit Points]
[First Place]: Don't Say You Have No Clothes – 85,000 points
[2nd Place]: Emperor Dust – 75000 Points
[Third Place]: Wolf Warrior – 68,000 points
[Fourth Place]: Dominating Heroes – 55,000 points
[Fifth Place]: White Birch – 30,000 points
[6th place]: Lord Chunshen – 27,000 points
[Seventh Place]: Wandering Fantasy – 25,000 points
[Eighth Place]: Overturning the Heavens and Earth-20,000
9th Place: Ten-Tailed Dark Fox – 18,000 Points
[Tenth Place]: Jade Beak – 15,000 points
Without any suspense, Shanhai City almost single-handedly annihilated the entire Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Ouyang Shuo's contribution once again rose to the top, looking down on everyone.
The reward of 85,000 merit points was equivalent to the reward of a single battle.
Following closely behind him was Di Chen, who had first led the allied forces in the Capital to destroy the Yellow Turban. If Di Chen hadn't been leading the allied forces, his merit points would have surpassed Ouyang Shuo's due to his high efficiency in killing the Yellow Turban.
The one ranked third was none other than the War Wolf who had led the allied forces to attack Huang Chao's rebel army twice. In the end, he joined forces with Xiong Ba and annihilated the Great Qi Kingdom established by Huang Chao.
As for War Wolf's ally, Xiong Ba, he was ranked fourth.
As for Bai Hua, Lord Chunshen, and Piaoling Huan, who had yet to complete their task, they had taken the fifth to seventh positions.
After the 7th person, there were no more [Yan Huang Alliance] or [Mountain and Sea Alliance] members. Whether it was Feng Qiuhuang, Dragon Seeking Cave, Siege Lion, Military Killer, Feng Qingyang, or the others, they had all been spectators in the campaign to annihilate the peasant rebel army.
The last three places on the list were occupied by three dark horses. Ouyang Shuo estimated that these three should be members of Di Chen's allied forces, or the War Wolf or Xiong Ba's allied forces.
Based on the list alone, the [Mountain and Sea Alliance] had undoubtedly lost. Only Ouyang Shuo and Bai Hua were on the list. However, the [Yan Huang Alliance] had five people on the list, occupying half of the list.
Apart from that, the last three people could also be considered allies of the [Yan Huang Alliance].
It was not an exaggeration to say that they had been utterly defeated.
If Ouyang Shuo hadn't taken the first place, the Alliance of Mountains and Seas would have lost all its face without a fig leaf.
Before this, Ouyang Shuo had a premonition. Through the leaderboard, the weakness of the Alliance of Mountains and Seas was displayed to the entire Chinese server mercilessly.
Ouyang Shuo could only let out a long sigh.
At this moment, a system notification sounded in Ouyang Shuo's ears.
"System notification: Congratulations to player Not Saying You Have No Clothes. In the second year of Gaia's campaign to annihilate the peasant rebel army, you have been awarded a special reward. Please choose!"
Immediately, a virtual screen appeared in front of Ouyang Shuo, listing out the list of ten rewards.
< 1 > Merit Points awarded 20,000 points.
[2] 1x special building blueprint
[3] 50000 gold coins
[4] 1x genuine King-grade cultivation technique
[5] 1x additional chance to use a hidden building
[6] 1x technical manual
[7] 1x special item
[8] 1x dark gold-grade equipment
[9] Awarded 100,000 Reputation Points.
[10] 1x random reward
Seeing such a generous reward, Ouyang Shuo drooled.
Those who did not know better would have thought that this was a small-scale system auction!
"Since when did the great god Gaia become so generous?"
Ouyang Shuo was still immersed in the rewards when he suddenly heard a system notification.
"System notification: Player can choose three of them as the final reward. Please choose!"
"…"
Ouyang Shuo's face immediately darkened. Great god Gaia, do you have to trick me like that!?
Say so earlier!
You made me happy for nothing.
Character was a curse after all!
From the looks of it, the second place could choose two, while the third place could only choose one. He just didn't know if the ten rewards that they listed were the same or not.
Ouyang Shuo had to think carefully about choosing three out of ten.
"Can I use the elimination method?" Ouyang Shuo asked.
"Yes!"
"Yes, gold coins and reputation points will be eliminated first."
It was not easy to get a chance at the lottery, so how could Ouyang Shuo choose some mundane items?
Immediately, items [3] and [9] disappeared from the screen in front of Ouyang Shuo.
"King-grade cultivation technique and dark-gold equipment are too low, so they will be eliminated as well."
Ouyang Shuo was not afraid of being ganged up on by other players when he said this.
Regardless of which one it was, it was a top-notch existence to adventure-type players. But in Ouyang Shuo's eyes, it was an inferior existence.
It was really infuriating to compare oneself with others.
Fortunately, Gaia didn't have these feelings. With a "swoosh", Item (4) and Item (8) also disappeared.
There were only six remaining, and he had to choose one out of two.
