Chapter 169: Thunderstorm

[City Leader Token]: Those in possession of the City Leader Token can launch a siege war to any city. If one wins the war, then one obtains the ownership of the city.

As the game had gradually developed to this point, the importance of the city had already been known. If one could obtain a city, then the benefits that one could gain was very huge. It was much more than one could earn from relying on Guild Base teleportation fees and equipment repair fees. Once one became the city leader, they could set the prices and taxes themselves. The city leader could even have a huge privilege of controlling part of the NPC army.

However, the number of people who could actually obtain a city was very few.

The methods of obtaining a city were many, such as farming official missions, and when one’s official position reached a certain degree, they could start buying popularity, increasing the citizens’ support rate. When the support rate was over 90%, then one could apply for the city leader position; there was less than one-tenth percentage that one could directly become a city leader.

Strictly speaking, when one’s support rate was lower than 100%, then they would not be able to guarantee the success rate of the election. Unless if a historical event happened and the city leader was willing to resign.

Meanwhile, another method was to use the City Leader Token to snatch the city. By gathering a super big scale troop and forcibly breaking through the Holy Church, as well as the allied force of the kingdom, one would be eligible to robbing the qualifications of a city leader. As compared to the peaceful snatching of the city, the degree of destruction of the city by using the city leader token and obtaining the city through force was much higher, but the strength of control was larger.

Snatching the city through civilized methods could only bestow the rights of the royal family. Meanwhile, one would obtain all of the rights after expelling the Holy Church by using force to snatch the city!

The premise of using City Leader Token was that the guild level must be over level 5 and the person using it must be the guild leader. Increasing the guild level was relatively difficult, it needed members to complete a huge number of guild missions that had poor rewards and was very time-consuming. That was also the reason why Lin Jie did not plan to build a guild.

This City Leader Token, it was not very useful to Lin Jie. However… most probably many people would be interested in it. Although the City of Light Auction House was already very famous, it never hurt to have even more fame by adding oil to the fire!

Lin Jie thought for a while and took out 10 gold coins unwillingly. He pulled out the system bar and chose to release a world announcement.

The world announcement would be shown to the whole of The New Age, the basic lasting time of every world announcement was 10 seconds. Unless the next world announcement player was willing to spend twice the amount of money on replacing the previous one.

-World Announcement (Codename Lone Wolf): The Central Auction House will hold its first auction, all players are welcome to join in the auction. Each player is welcomed to find the staff member to submit an application for the auction. The Central Auction House will exempt one from the handling fee or even give a reward according to the rarity of the item. This auction will be hosted by the auctioneer Bella, the final item will be the City Leader Token!

Once the announcement was made, the whole game exploded in discussion!

The City Leader Token! It was actually the City Leader Token! Many people had yet to believe this fact, but once they saw the issuer’s name, the doubt was expelled instantly. How could the announcement made by Codename Lone Wolf be fake?

Many players that were nearer to the Auction House instantly swarmed towards it.

Meanwhile, Zheng Ziliang and the others had just gotten the message, they understood Lin Jie’s meaning, and although he immediately arranged a large number of NPCs, the number of applications was just too much to handle.

Zheng Ziliang steeled his heart and gritted his teeth, he arranged for all players to have number plates. Those players with number plates only needed to wait for the notification from the NPC and then go there. As compensation, everyone could go to the Dark Iron Inn for free drinks.

Just that treatment itself made players even crazier. In addition, there was the City Leader Token present, the auction would not lack buyers. They were even more willing to take out their treasured items.

Meanwhile, to others, that was not good news.

Dumb Fox sighed, then he smiled bitterly and said, “He really secretly kept an item, and it’s actually a City Leader Token.”

Heaven Plume glared at him and said, “Codename Lone Wolf had already removed the prefix City of Light, he really is going to establish the Auction House as a Central Auction House! At that time he was still hiding his real abilities! I had already mentioned it before, that Auction House was definitely related to him!”

“So what?” Ghost Eyes pulled the Sub-Legendary damaged bow’s string, he raised his eyelids and smiled as he said, “We will still need to go and see, let’s go.”

“Go? It’s already too late to go now, it must have already been piled full with people!” Dumb Fox reluctantly dialed Lin Jie. “Leader Lone Wolf, we want a few VIP seats, that is not too much to request, right?”

“I have long ago arranged the VIP seats for you, guild leaders,” said Lin Jie as he smiled.

“Thank you.” Dumb Fox put down the communication device.

At the Sky Provisions Shop…

Bella was absorbed in carrying out her work. Although her mission was just a salesperson, due to the effects of being a beauty, Sky Provisions Shop’s business was quite good. As a reward, Bella’s salary every month was not bad, as compared to being a waiter in the hotel previously, it was much better.

When she saw the announcement, Bella’s hands that held the goods trembled severely.

“Head Auctioneer… Bella.” She gently wiped the tear on the corner of her eyes before cracking a smile. “I will!”

At Moldolita Forest…

Lin Jie came to the place where the Thunder Silver-Feathered Eagle died. That huge eagle corpse had already been transported back. The Sub-Legendary Boss’ whole body was filled with treasures, the bird meat from its whole body was also so! Using it as cooking ingredients could even increase one’s attributes.

His purpose was that Pet Egg! A Sub-Legendary Boss’ Pet Egg, how good would it be?

When he reached the destination, he suddenly detected another person! He keenly felt about the leaves on the ground, he seemed to be examining something, his hands pinched a handful of soil, he carefully smelt it and his lips curved into a smile.

Eighteen Massacres!

Lin Jie laughed coldly, he flipped his hand, and a pale purple sword landed on his sword. It was the Thunderbolt Sword! Thunderbolt Sword’s attacking power was even stronger than Broken Blade’s; don’t forget, that was a Sub-Legendary fragment!

Eighteen Massacres’ eyes took a look behind, he smiled coldly and said, “I guessed that you would come. Lone Wolf, with your craftiness and selfish personality, you would never give all the drops to them.”

Lin Jie smiled. “Continue.”

“If I’m not wrong, that City Leader Token was also hidden by you. However, with your arrogance, you would definitely make public the item that you had secretly hidden. Thus, dispelling those idiots’ concerns, letting them believe that you had only kept the City Leader Token for yourself. What they did not think of was that you had hidden the most precious item here.”

Clap, clap, clap.

Lin Jie could not help but start clapping. “Eighteen Massacres, you really know me, but so what?”

Eighteen Massacres gave a peal of cold laughter, his eyes swept past Broken Blade, he could not help but say greedily, “I am from the Dark Shrine, as long as I am willing to sacrifice a bit of my Health Points, you will not be able to kill me no matter what. Snatching away your item is really not something difficult.”

“You want to try?” Lin Jie raised his chin slightly.

“Let’s try.” Eighteen Massacres’ Seven Style Spear changed, and it actually added another layer of outer armor on the original Thorn Armor! Even a Buff, Weapon, appeared on top of his head.

[Weapon]: Your weapon will lose its attack power, and in exchange, 30% Damage Immunity will be provided. This effect is able to stack with skills.

Weapon coupled with the Dark Armor Eighteen Massacres originally had, if it was the Lin Jie at first, most probably his damage output would decrease from 200 points to about 100 points. Eighteen Massacres also relied on his fearsome ability of almost never dying and squatted down without worries of dying, and then he started to dig the item underground.

Lin Jie’s hands trembled, Broken Blade and Thunderbolt Sword resonated, the purple thunder traveled on the ground and gave out frightening sounds of thunderbolt sizzling.

Eighteen Massacres saw Thunderbolt Sword and Broken Blade, and a sense of danger arose in his heart. ‘That Broken Blade… seems to be different from before. Is it possible for it to have evolved?’

Lin Jie slowly raised his swords. When it hit its target, a bolt of lightning was shot out from the Thunderbolt Sword, which was like a small snake flicking out its tongue.

Kaboom—

There was not a speck of clouds in the Moldolita Forest. Immediately after the bolt of lightning appeared, clouds gathered! Thunderclaps and roaring of the purple thunder could be heard! Bolts of lightning crazily struck the ground, Lin Jie stood under the clouds, the lightning cracked the ground and made him look as if he was the God of Thunder, Thor.

“You…” The hair on Eighteen Massacres stood up straight in fear. After he had been forcibly killed by Lin Jie, his level had dropped to level 17! Now that he had finally reached level 17, 98% at that, with much difficulty, coupled with his life-saving ability, he had been under the impression that it was impossible for anyone to kill him again. But, was it possible now…

Lin Jie slashed with his sword, and a large number of bolts of lightning scattered on the ground like hungry, poisonous snakes, instantly devouring a tree in the blink of an eye, leaving only ashes behind on the ground.

“Thunderstorm!” shouted Lin Jie. The thunder seemed to be responding to Lin Jie’s call and let out a huge roar.

A purple bolt of lightning struck, and the ground abruptly exploded! Immediately after, the second, the third, and the fourth one struck! The lightning seemed to have been guided and crazily struck down, bombarding Eighteen Massacres!

Sizzle!

-315!

The lightning struck Eighteen Massacres, Weapon and Dark Armor flickered madly, annulling most of the damage! He laughed heartily, while the speed of the movement of his hands increased greatly, becoming much faster, digging the soil layer by layer.

“Lone Wolf, you cannot kill me!” said Eighteen Massacres relentlessly as he dug the ground with a ferocious face.

“Is that so?”

Lin Jie waved his Thunderbolt Sword, the scattered lightning gradually gathered, as though being twisted together, they crazily twirled together, forming a formidable purple thunderstorm!

Thunderstorm was impressive!

Whoosh—

Thunderstorm started whirling at high speed and actually let out sounds like a whirlwind. Flood of damage points popped up form the center of Thunderstorm!

-500!

-574!

-569!

…

Eighteen Massacres widened his eyes so much, so they almost seemed as if they cracked. In an instant, his Health Bar was emptied. Then, a dark layer of fog exploded!

“Immortal Body! Revive!”

However, at the instant of revival, he was instantly, madly overpowered by the thunder again. After 30 seconds, the lightning gradually disappeared. Lin Jie raised his arm slightly, and the clouds in the sky instantly dispersed.

Where Eighteen Massacres originally stood, only a layer of ash was left!

Eighteen Massacres was struck into ashes by the lightning! The ground was even dug deep into the soil by a few layers, and the Pet Egg with lightning revolving around it was revealed.

Sizzle…

Thunderbolt Sword let out a slight thunder sound. The surface of the lightning gradually turned gray, the color was also much paler.

[Thunderstorm]: Directive type skill, one would be interrupted if attacked during the guiding process. Causes thunderstorm attack to enemies within a 10×15 yards radius, power storing time is 10 seconds. In the period of storing power, every bolt of lightning would deal 80% the damage of one’s attack power. After completing the storing of power, activate Thunderstorm to overpower the target. Causes 90% chance of paralysis and every second 100% damage of attack power, lasts 30 seconds. The skill’s cooldown is 6 hours.
