“Another S Grade?”

Lin Xi and I got a little emotional. If we could get another S Grade strategic area before 12, all our With You members would get 2.3 million points today. Currently, top players got around 1.3 to 1.8 million a day.

“Where is it?” Lin Xi asked.

“En!”

Mundane Slaughter shared his map and pointed north of Silver Scale Fortress, “20 minutes from here there is a map called Badger Valley. It is a valley without any walls to defend but it is a strategic area. It covers 30% of the strategic passage of the corridor. If we take it down, we can prevent the Dimension Legion Army from attacking south.”

“Nice nice…”

Ah Fei sucked in a deep breath, “This might be the most exciting moment… Such an area is really strategic, if we take it down, we will continue to get hit but also continue to gain points. Dangers and riches exist together!”

“Right.”

I nodded, “After we take down the valley, we can just wait there to get points and then wait for the daily rewards.”

I looked towards Lin Xi, “Lin Xi let’s leave two teams to defend the Silver Scale Fortress, the rest head over to Badger Valley!”

“Is two teams enough?”

She was worried.

“Enough.”

I pointed and smiled, “The walls are strong and the system will send NPCs to help us. Even if T1 guilds attack us they won’t take it down quickly. We have enough time to come back to help.”

“Okay.”

Lin Xi smiled, “Then which two?”

I lowered my voice, “The two weakest ones, the 7th and 8th!”

The two team leaders, Mundane Slaughter and Heaven Timber’s mouth twitched, “We heard that!”

Mundane Slaughter added, “I want to go to Badger Valley. How about this, leave both the 7th and 8th teams here and Heaven Timber to command them. I will follow everyone and join the Assassin Team. Seven can charge alone and the Assassins need someone to command. They will listen to my words.”

“Sure.”

I smiled, “That is decided. Heaven Timber you lead two teams, do you have the confidence to defend the fortress?”

“Of course.”

He held his bow and looked determined, “Don’t worry boss, if we lose this city, I will resign.”

Okay!”

I looked at the time, “It is 5:40, head offline to rest. Let’s meet before 7 and attack the valley. 5 hours should be enough to take down an S Grade fortress.”

“En!”

Everyone nodded. Shen Mingxuan smiled, “I didn’t order delivery, let’s go opposite for some lamp pot, it is quite near.”

“Okay--”

……

I went offline and when I took off my helmet, I saw exhaustion on Lin Xi, Ruyi and Shen Mingxuan’s faces. They were fighting online for a long time and really needed a rest. They were girls so their stamina couldn’t be compared to someone who cultivated like me. I suggested, “Let’s not drive, let’s walk?”

“Okay--”

Lin Xi smiled, “Let me change into a skirt.”

“Don’t take too long, we need to head online before seven.”

“En en!”

Not long later, Lin Xi headed out. Her vibrant and energetic attire attracted me. She wore a white shirt and a grey skirt that showed off her white legs such that my nose nearly bled. At this point, I really felt that Lin Xi’s legs looked the best in the studio. Even Shen Mingxuan was slightly inferior.

“Let’s go!”

I stood up and said, “Time waits for no one, let’s head over and order!”

“En en!”

The three girls nodded. Gu Ruyi and Mingxuan were in nice dresses and after a few days, when the weather gets cold they probably wouldn’t be able to wear anymore. Lin Xi’s difference with them was not only legs but also the socks which helped me to cover the tech that I designed for her.

We headed out. Shen Mingxuan and Ruyi walked at the back while Lin Xi and I walked at the front.

Lin Xi wore flat shoes and bounced when she walked.

I stared at her legs for a long time and said, “Lin Xi, do you want to wear high heels?”

“Ah?”

She opened her eyes wide, “Why? Sometimes I do it to make myself seem taller.”

“Temporarily not yet.”

I shook my head, “This assistance system isn’t designed yet. Give me some time, I will improve the code when I am free and add the high heels system.”

“En en, no rush, do it when you are free.”

“Okay.”

Not long later, we arrived at the food spot and ordered a pot. They did it differently from other places. This was a pot, similar to pot chicken. The ingredients were tossed in so when the server opened the pot it meant that everything could be eaten. We each had a can of sprite and started to eat.

It was 6:30 when we were done. Half an hour more, more than enough.

The few of us looked at the scenery while walking back. We bought milk tea on the way back and it was 6:50 when we were back at the studio. Pee and we could go online.

……

“Shua!”

I was the first to go online. The moment I went online, white light flashed and With You members, all came online. In the city, there were many soldiers in silver armor. They were from Silver Frost Army, around thousands of them. Further away were archers and heavy shield soldiers that were lining up to battle.

“Yi?”

I was stunned and looked at Heaven Timber, “Ah Chai, what is up with them?”

He stood on the walls and it was obvious he didn’t go offline, “When everyone went offline they appeared to help defend the walls. When they came they said that it was Zhenyang Duke who said that we have to defend this area well.”

“Don’t be too careless, the monsters will definitely attack again.”

“En!”

……

Not long later, Lin Xi, Shen Mingxuan and Ruyi all went online. I accompanied everyone out. Outside of the city, close to 6000 With You elites gathered. Light Lantern, Cal, Haotian, Yixue etc held their weapons and lined up at the front of the cavalries. We waited solemnly and were prepared to head out.

“Nice.”

I nodded, “Follow the previous strategy, use the triangle formation to attack and head right for Badger Forest. Fanchen lead the way, Lin Xi and I will open the path.”

“Okay!”

I also summoned my blue horse. After jumping up, I led the forces alongside Lin Xi. All of a sudden, the entire plains was covered with the sound of With You’s iron cavalry. We weren’t too fast and maintained a decent speed as the support and ranged players. Heaven Morque lead a group to hold the rear just in case.

Just like that, we left Silver Scale Fortress. Further in front, the ice melted. A Badger Forest appeared and there were many Pioneer Ghouls around. There were even tombs on the ground which were where Pioneer Army spawned new monsters. Without an objective, it would be good if we hunted for points here.

But our goal was for the S Grade area. Every guild would compete and if we wanted to rely on just one S Grade, it would be a matter of time before we got exceeded.

“Break through!”

Lin Xi pointed at the Pioneer Ghoul formation and said, “Follow close!”

Ten minutes later, we killed our way through and headed forwards. Far away, we saw a group of Pioneer Cavalries in the forest ahead. In our vision, we could see a mountain range from east to west that was in the middle of the corridor, splitting it into two. The Badger Valley was in the mountains and was a path that had to be crossed. West was a few passes that were all strategic areas but they weren’t as important as this valley.

“It is not far away!”

Light Lantern pointed, “It is at the mountain range ahead, it will take less than 10 minutes.”

“Calm down.”

I opened Shifang Flame Spiral Eye and stared at the forest, “Damn, there is an ambush. I see red health bars, there should be monsters.”

“Oh?”

Lin Xi was stunned, “What should we do?”

“Draw them out and fight them. We have six teams, we have the advantage.”

“Okay.”

Lin Xi ordered right away, “Stop, form up here. There is an ambush ahead, let’s prepare to fight!”

“Someone has to draw them if not they won’t come out!” Mundane Slaughter frowned.

“Whoever said that head over,” I said.

“Damn!”

He raised his middle finger and frowned, “Moonlight, Nine Song, Ah Shui, bring brothers with over 30 thousand combat strength and follow me!”
