Bab 69: A Little Gift
The mood on the battlefield was much heavier and more sinister than in Doom City, the place was an empty and lifeless field the only thing it had was a large amount of broken armor and weapons scattered over a vast distance.
The rotten smell of decayed bodies was still pervading the air if someone did not have a strong mind, the moment he smelled it, a sense of nausea and vomiting could be felt.
The dark clouds in the sky seemed to be heavy and ready to rain, no thunder or lightning was shining in the clouds. The only thing that could be seen in the sky was part of the bright moon, for much of it was covered by black clouds.
The strong wind blowing every gust felt like thousands of blades of wind cutting everything along the way, the sensation was shiver.
The battlefield site was full of players, many of them in groups, while others were alone. Students who came from influential schools formed groups with other students from the same or allied schools. Those who had enemies in common also formed their group.
School flags were placed on the floor to show which school those students belonged to, which was a means to show students' background. Those who came from ordinary schools lacked the courage to approach those who came from influential schools.
Liu Yang arrived alone, as Little Flower was using a camouflage skill to hide. Liu Yang declined to say he reaches to the battlefield, as he wanted to enjoy this event alone. His classmates were killed or managed to the battlefield.
Players like Liu Yang were drawing a lot of attention because they were alone, many were wondering who they were and what background they had. This type of player was rare in this kind of event, where the government of the human kingdom was sponsoring along with the schools.
One thing everyone in the place knew, those who were alone were at least level 200, as players with levels above were forbidden to participate because of system restrictions.
Currently, there was nothing in place but the players, because the event had not started and was still a few minutes to start. Everyone was looking forward to the start of the event.
Time went by slowly, every second felt like an eternity in a place where there was nothing but nothing. To relax, some groups started talking while others cooked, some were forging and many other activities.
This kind of thing caught the eye of some players, as many of them were curious to know what the process of manual labor was like. The only player with common background did this kind of thing because it took a lot of time and the investment was very high, without a sponsor it was almost impossible to become a master of the profession.
Because of this fact, many players who had professional always tried to draw the attention of those who came from influential backgrounds to get some chance to join these groups.
While this kind of thing was happening, there was also the flip side, many influential players were paying attention to players who were alone like Liu Yang. Many were considering going to talk to them to find out some information about their background.
A group of players, who were wearing shining armor, approached Liu Yang, he was sitting on the floor with his head bowed while talking to Little Thorns for private voice chat. When the players reached five feet from Liu Yang, they began to feel a chill down their spine as they realized that someone powerful was protecting Liu Yang in the shadows and could not be seen.
The group understood that Liu Yang was someone they could not offend, even though they were from an influential group, they did not have a bodyguard that gave the dangerous feel like Little Thorns, it proved that he was very protected. That was their thinking, but it was a pity that it was wrong, because Liu Yang was being helped by someone else and did not come from an influential background.
When Liu Yang saw this scene, he realized that Little Thorns did something, he didn't know what it did. Little Thorns only did this because she didn't want her pleasant conversation with Liu Yang to be interrupted, as they didn't have much time to talk alone without other people interrupting. Little Thorns wanted to enjoy it as much as possible.
This sort of thing might look like Little Thorns was stealing the man from her young mistress and Tears on Sky in the eyes of others since Liu Yang was the supposed man of the two girls.
Rose didn't care that Little Thorns had an interest in Liu Yang because she couldn't interfere with that, that was something Rose decided, even using it as a small excuse to soothe her heart.
She thought that if Liu Yang could marry Little Thorns, part of her guilt would be lessened as she put Liu Yang in a very difficult situation without him knowing. But she never imagined that the things she planned never came out the way she expected, yet the results were satisfactory to Rose. But this story is for another time.
…
"Big sister, shouldn't you be with your young mistress?" Liu Yang asked he didn't ask about the fact that Little Thorns had done something to that group of young people who tried to approach him.
"The big sister asked me to come in as a thank you for the little brother's help, although the young mistress Little Flower had her bodyguard, that was not enough for the confusion she got in with her colleagues." Little Thorns was not worried about this, as it was normal for this kind of thing to happen. Also, she didn't lie about Rose sending her to thank Liu Yang for the information.
Little Flower had already sent information to Rose, but she only sent help when Liu Yang sent her message. Because she gave priority to his words, and what happened was just a coincidence, Liu Yang and Little Flower were in the same place and sent a message asking for help.
Little Thorns was sent to Liu Yang because Rose wanted them to have time alone to talk without her being together.
"I see… Big Sister, after the event starts, will you go back to the big Sister?" Liu Yang asked curiously, he knew Little Thorns was always by Rose's side. Little Thorns' words managed to convince Liu Yang, as he figured it might be something like that, but what he didn't know was that there were others behind Little Thorns' coming.
"Yes, I'll have to go back ..." Little Thorns was a little discouraged after saying those words. She wanted to enjoy this moment a little more.
"Big sister, get this" Liu Yang opened the trading window for Little Thorns, he placed two items. She accepted the trade without hesitation.
Looking at both items, Little Thorns' heart beat faster for a moment.
