Chapter 1035 - 612: Celebration, the Belief of the Territory’s People, and Duke Kane!
Danerluo Port,
This bustling port city is currently engulfed in a festive atmosphere. Colorful banners flutter in the wind, intertwining as they convey warm congratulations for the grand celebration.
Even the usually busiest port has come to a standstill today, with ships lined up neatly, their hulls adorned with ribbons and flowers, as if joining in the festive feast.
The sea breeze carries with it laughter and the melody of music, creating a strong sense of holiday cheer.
The central square is teeming with people, bustling with activity. A band specially hired by the Lord Mansion plays lively tunes, infusing the entire city with a celebratory ambiance.
Around the square, stalls and snack shops of all kinds are set up. The aroma of roasted meat, the sweetness of candy, and the scents of various signature snacks intermingle, enticing passersby.
Mo Yun’s hands are filled with gourmet treats bought along the way, as she enjoys the delicacies without a moment’s pause.
Zhao Zhao, walking beside Mo Yun, shook his head as he remarked:
"Why do you look like you haven’t eaten in days?"
"...Of course, I’ve been looking forward to today’s celebration." Mo Yun replied affirmatively after swallowing the meat in her mouth.
Zhao Zhao had initially taken a quest to head to other parts of the Luou Peninsula, but upon hearing about the celebration, he hurried back.
Many players made the same choice as Zhao Zhao, for who would refuse such a lively gathering?
Besides, who knows what surprises Lis will bring to the players now that he’s become a Legend?
As the most benevolent plot character to players in the early game, Lis’s name is not only renowned on the Fanor Continent but also among players on other continents in the Gaia World, across different country’s servers.
"Furthermore, I think this real-world celebration is even more interesting!"
"I was focused on the live stream earlier, now I’m going to enjoy the food!"
"Anyway, I won’t gain weight, and I’ve saved up plenty of Gold Coins in the game." Mo Yun waved her hand nonchalantly.
"Alright." Zhao Zhao shrugged, feeling that as Mo Yun’s good friend, it’s nothing requiring a change.
Compared to Mo Yun, he is more inclined to uncover the various secrets in the game [Divine Revelation].
Besides Mo Yun’s fame as a rising streamer, the [Embers of Fire] Guild owes its success to Zhao Zhao’s relentless strategy guides on player forums, attracting many like-minded skilled players to join.
As for Liu’s Titan, he’s busy with guild matters, which is why Zhao Zhao and Mo Yun don’t have to worry about guild management and can focus on enhancing their strength.
Seeing Mo Yun still wanting to wander around, Zhao Zhao stopped her, saying helplessly:
"It’s almost time, let’s head to the central square."
"The celebration is about to officially start, and Lis should be making an appearance. You wouldn’t want to miss it, right?"
"Oh, right, right." Mo Yun nodded, quickly storing the heap of freshly bought food into the storage ring.
This golden storage ring was lent to Mo Yun by Golden Dragon Ludwig, although it doesn’t belong to Mo Yun.
Mo Yun can only use this storage ring and cannot take the ring off to trade it away.
But even so, Mo Yun is very satisfied.
This storage ring can hold much more than the in-game space backpack, and sometimes during guild runs through secret realm dungeons, many items are stored in this ring.
Soon, the two of them hurried to the central square.
This place is situated just below the small hill of Kane Castle, at the city’s edge, where lifting one’s gaze reveals the eagle sculpture that represents the Kane family.
At this moment, the square is bustling with crowds shoulder to shoulder, eagerly awaiting the appearance of the domain’s owner.
With a quick glance over the crowd, Mo Yun and Zhao Zhao noticed that many of them are players, including quite a few famous professional players.
"Isn’t that Han Xing from the Kunlun Guild and Legend’s Beginning?"
Mo Yun suddenly pointed to the players gathered on the west side of the square, where two figures were tightly surrounded.
"It’s them." Zhao Zhao glanced over, nodding in confirmation.
As the sole member of the Four Professional Guilds based in Danerluo Port, members of the Kunlun Guild certainly wouldn’t miss today’s grand gathering.
"I just didn’t expect not only Han Xing to come but also Legend’s Beginning to show up. Wasn’t he preparing to retire and transition to guild management?" Zhao Zhao curiously remarked, being one of the most well-known figures in the Danerluo Port player community as the president of the Embers of Fire Guild.
Having a good relationship with Han Xing, Han Xing once invited him and Mo Yun to join the Kunlun Guild, but Zhao Zhao declined.
Over there, Han Xing seemed to notice Zhao Zhao and nodded in acknowledgment.
After exchanging brief greetings, Zhao Zhao paid no further attention.
His goal is to become the strongest professional player in the Huaxia District and build [Embers of Fire] into the strongest Professional Guild, to take revenge on the Changge Guild that had casually discarded him.
Though many see this as an impractical ambition, Zhao Zhao is steadily working towards this goal.
Zhao Zhao didn’t say much more, and after Liu’s Titan, Durian, and several friends arrived, they waited with the crowd for Lis’s appearance.
...
"I think it’s about time."
