Chapter 640: East River Corridor Battle

Next morning, I woke up at 7 and headed out at 7:30. I bought breakfast in ten minutes and ate by 8. When Lin Xi and Shen Mingxuan woke up I was already online.

Shua!

I appeared in Winter Sun City and entered Great Shrine Hall right away. I sat in a corner and clicked on the Paladin skill list and selected Self Sacrifice. As expected, the skill priority was really high and needed 4 hours to merge. I entered the merge process right away.

Morning, people came and went to the Great Shrine Hall. There were people here for business and there were couples chatting not far away and they were here for some private space. That was understandable. After all, there were many players in Illusionary Moon and it was tough to find a quiet spot. If one was out one might be attacked by monsters and players. No choice, the Great Shrine Hall turned into a good place for couples.

A couple sat two rows behind me. The guy was a level 126 Warrior and he wore orange armor. He was decent in Winter Sun City. The girl was a level 99 Priest and looked around 20. She developed well and the robe she was wearing felt a little tight.

No!

The girl said, There are many people here I am shy

The guy said, Where are there people, they are busy. Who will care about us?

Look at that brother, he is sitting there alone, who knows what he is thinking. Maybe he can hear us!

No, he is so focused, he is probably talking. Come, kiss me, just once.

Muacks---

Wu wu wu You are so annoying, you said once.

I love you, how can once be enough?

That brother moved a little.

No no.

You wait.

She struggled, Do you notice that he has the With You mark He is July Wildfire?

Damn, it really is him!

The guy kept silent for a while, Lets change a spot, dont let such a god laugh at us.

Oh---

I sucked in a deep breath and resisted the urge to hit them. Note they were gone but just five minutes later, another couple walked in. The guy was around 20+, level 123 Archer and the girl was around 40+, level 119 Paladin.

Little Zhang, you havent been to our shop in a long time, what have you been busy with?

Graduation design auntie, it has been busy so I didnt go and work.

Right, you mentioned the loan, have you paid it up?

Still a little, soon.

If not then tell me. Personal loan is no different from poison, dont touch it. Try to pay it up right away.

Yes auntie.

Why not I let my chef buy a chicken and help to cook it for you to nourish your body?

No No need?

Why so polite, when you graduate, your degree You need to find someone. I have a friend that is the ceo of a design company. If you want to spend a few years under him, I can help you

Auntie, I

The guy wanted to cry but no tears came out, Thank you auntie. I want to try myself, if I cant

Okay, then will you come over later?

Tell the chef to put more chillis, I am from Chongqing, I am not afraid of spicy

Not long later, I was about to tear up. It was tough for students to get a job without experience but lets hope he was strong enough to work hard himself. For a guy, pride won everything.

Not long later, more pairs entered and left. I was like a guest, seeing it all and gaining much weird knowledge.

10am.

Sha sha

Suddenly someone sat down. This was the first time today that someone sat so close. I turned around and saw that it was a top beauty.

Lin Xi why are you here? I asked.

...

She pouted, I heard someone in the guild say that you spent a full morning like a dummy here, you must be bored so I came to accompany you---

...

I was speechless, You arent leveling and instead spending time here?

Nope, the event is in the afternoon. I dont want to head out much. I just trained Weapon Protection and Return Slash in the job training center and that is enough.

Okay then how will you accompany me? I asked.

She thought about it and said, Why not lets watch a movie? Those streaming ones.

Okay.

I said, When will you watch a movie with me in real life?

Her face flushed red, If you invite me then anytime?

My heart beat quickly, Okay--

Lin Xi sat next to me and shared her movie interface. It was one from years ago and it was called green book, a movie about racism. The story was nice and the plot made one angry. However, it was also very heart warming. Lin Xi watched for a while and she hugged my arm, pressing her cheeks onto my armor.

In the hall, people came and went and we just sat together. Many players screenshotted us but it didnt matter. Lin Xi didnt care so why should I?

Just like that, when we were done, my skill merge was about to complete.

The moment the movie ended, Lin Xi raised her hand and kept the device. She looked at me, It would be great if there wasnt discrimination in the world.

There always is.

I said, So that is why people have to fight back and there will be wars. Okay I am nearly done, is lunch ready?

Smell?

En?

I sniffed and smiled, Chicken and mushroom stew?

Nose of a dog!

Damn!

Hahaha---

At that moment, a bell rang and the merge was done. A new icon appeared in my skill list---

Self Sacrifice (Merge): Assist an ally and tank all the damage, reduce damage taken by 70% lasting for 5 seconds.

What a god technique!

The strongest part of it was that not only could it block all damage for an ally, but it also did 70% damage reduction. So these 5 seconds were the absolute space for a Paladin, it was impossible to kill the Paladin and the ally in such a time. Only after the five seconds could one kill.

In the entire server, only my Assassin could kill someone under such a state!

Now my Assassin had such a skill. Self Sacrificing someone was secondary, the main thing was that I could get the damage reduction. In the future, I can use it on Orange Night and White Bird to obtain the effect. 5 seconds of damage reduction, could decide many things.

Offline, time to eat with others!

52 minutes to the start.

Shen Mingxuan placed her hairpin down and smiled, We dont have much time, eat and then head online. Lets go early, we might lose out on good spots if we are late.

En.

I nodded. After leading them to finish the meal, we didnt even have time to make juice. We drank hot water before going online.

Shua---

Light flashed and I fixed the equipment. I filled up on potions and went to meet up with the girls. Lin Xi said, Lets teleport to the north gate. Light Lantern and Cal have led With You members over there to occupy spots. Lets head over.

En.

We teleported and after a few streaks of light shone, four of us appeared south of the north gate. But as there were too many, we were forced a few meters out. Ruyi and Mingxuans strength was too low and they couldnt outpush others. They were about to drift further away.

Lin Xi!

I used the riding skill and jumped onto my horse, Bring Ruyi and Mingxuan over, if not We might not even be able to head out for half an hour!

En!

Lin Xi raised her hand to pull Shen Mingxuan up the horse. Mingxuan hugged her waist and smiled, Aiyo, Lin Xis waist, what a girl!

I was speechless and reached out, Ruyi, let me fetch you.

Oh.

Ruyi and I often trained together and we were close enough to share a mount. Gu Ruyi jumped onto my horse and smiled, It works!

I nodded and came to Lin Xis side, Lin Xi, your strength is high so you open the path, I will charge with you

She looked at me and was worried, Is your strength enough? So many people, dont lose Ruyi and yourself

Dont worry, although I am full Agility but my gear adds four stats. My strength wont be lower than them.

En, head out!

Just like that, we forced our way through the crowd. It seemed rude but no choice, if we followed rules, we would lose out.

We charged out quickly. I looked at the forest and smiled.

East River Corridor Battle, With You is here!
