Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Zhonglang General? (Seeking Recommendations and Favorites)

Actually, shouting this was very dangerous. No one could guarantee that all [Players] were on the same side. There might be [Players] who still have roles in the plague rat faction, making it too dangerous to expose oneself like this.

But in this urgent situation, there’s no time for further thoughts. Just deal with it as it comes.

As soon as Li Changhe finished shouting, the scenery in front of him had already turned into an ancient city gate. Dozens of soldiers dressed in armor from the Tang Dynasty were silently watching him while kneeling on one knee.

There was also a person with an evil smirk, wearing a purple robe and having white hair but no beard, watching him closely, and speaking with a sharp voice: "Zhonglang General, why haven’t you accepted the decree yet?"

It wasn’t Mandarin, but Li Changhe naturally understood it. As for the identity of this person, it must be an eunuch.

Li Changhe gasped for air. There wasn’t even a chance for him to catch his breath.

The flow of information was just too much; this was too sinister!

There’s no chance for me to do any research!

Who would have thought that as soon as I traveled through time, I would have to accept a decree? I don’t even know who I am now, okay?

Who is the Zhonglang General? Was it me? Is the rank high enough?

How should one accept a decree? Should I kneel? One knee or both? I’ve heard that some people even prostrate themselves on the ground to accept a decree, right?

Unfortunately, in this kind of [Instance] and [Plot] task, the real-time doesn’t move forward. Otherwise, Li Changhe would definitely go to the [forum] to ask for advice, or ask his [Friends] like Yang Dong.

’A dead eunuch in a plot mission wants me to kneel and accept the decree, what’s the right posture? Online, awaiting advice!’

His mind had yet to fully digest the information based on the identity provided by the [Evolution Game].

After a brief moment of pondering, Li Changhe... gave up thinking.

"Your subordinate shall accept the decree!" He copied the posture from ancient dramas and knelt down to accept the decree. As for whether it was correct, it depended on the accuracy of those ancient dramas.

Without saying much, the eunuch handed over a yellow silk-woven decree to Li Changhe. This must be the imperial edict. He thought spitefully, "Once I bring this back, I’ll sell it to a museum!"

"Be careful not to embarrass me!" The dead eunuch whispered in Li Changhe’s ear: "Daddy had to go through a lot just to get you here. Don’t screw it up!"

"Damn! This dead eunuch is actually ’my’ godfather? Is the [Evolution Game] really this playful? Can’t they just quietly give me a soldier’s role? Why all the drama?" Li Changhe coughed and responded: "Yes, sir!"

After his cheap godfather left, Li Changhe finally relaxed a bit.

Behind him, a soldier spoke: "Sir, what should we do now...?"

Li Changhe took the opportunity to glance at the imperial edict. Its content was about ordering Li Changhe to blockade the Yanhe Gate and cooperate with other departments in searching for criminals and the likes.

He lightly coughed and ordered: "Follow the decree. Seal the city gate."

"Yes, sir!"

Inside the military tent near Yanhe Gate, Li Changhe analyzed his ’character’s identity information.

Having finally gotten rid of his cheap godfather and those subordinates, he now had time to digest his identity.

Thousand Cattle Guard Zhonglang General, named Li Ba.

He didn’t know if this was a change made by [Evolution Game] or if such a person actually existed in history.

Li Changhe took out the mirror in his [Backpack] to check his appearance. It seemed that there was no difference from his original face.

He just looked much more mature, and his short hair had turned into long hair. He looked like he was about 27 or 28 years old. He didn’t know if those characters in the plot would also see him like this.

As for his specific identity, he was the godson of the eunuch, Father Xia, who had made significant contributions and had no sons of his own... Pff

So ’Li Ba’ was able to become the Zhonglang General. In other words, he won this battle through nepotism...

"Never thought that I’d get to compete one more time in the Evolution Game..." Li Changhe found it extremely intriguing, considering that he came from an orphanage, although his ’godfather’ was a eunuch...

For now, this seemed to be the setting. He didn’t know what identities the other four [Players] had.

Li Changhe checked his [Player Attributes] once again.

Several new terms appear behind [Skill].

[Heluo Sound/Min Nan Language: EX]

[Regular Script: B]

[Crossing Knife: A]

....

These are all special languages and fonts used in the Tang Dynasty, followed by a soldier’s skills. Li Changhe automatically mastered these when he acquired the identity of ’Li Ba’.

Then there is the Mountain Pattern Armor he is wearing. The [Great Wall Combat Cloak] hasn’t even warmed up yet when it has already changed its appearance. Li Changhe has a pained expression on his face, this is a gift from Xiao Nan. He’ll have to explain himself when he asks later...

It seems that the chance to use his [Great Wall] identity is slim.

[Great Wall Mountain Script Armor]

[Quality: Rare]

[Type: Protective Gear]

[Effect 1: Greatly increases physical defense]

[Effect 2: Enhances your melee combat skills]

[Note: The Great Wall remains, as does Hua Country forever. Upgraded equipment from the Great Wall Combat Cloak.]

Li Changhe’s eyes move, and he finds that he hasn’t actually lost out on anything. He has the chance to get another Great Wall Windbreaker. This kind of protective gear with rare quality and strong defense force is quite rare. And Effect 2 increases melee combat skills.

Li Changhe looks at [Skills] and sees [Octopole Fist: B] [Crossing Knife: A]

Were these two originally C and B, but have been upgraded by the Mountain Pattern Armor?

This gain is not small... but

"Tsk, so many benefits just for entering the Instance?" Li Changhe is not ecstatic. The risk and rewards in [Evolution Game] are directly proportional; with so many good things at the beginning, the rewards for actually completing it must be even greater. But it also means it’s very dangerous.

He checks the Tang Knife in the room. This cold weapon dominates this era. Regrettably, it’s a common-quality one and can’t break Li Changhe’s [Copper Skin and Iron Bones] trait.

Li Changhe regrets not taking out the [Severing Short Spear] and [Bone-crushing Knife] earlier. Perhaps they would have changed like the Great Wall Windbreaker.

At this moment, a soldier’s voice comes from outside the tent: "Sir, the Dalisi Cheng requests an audience. He said it’s about discussing an event."

Li Changhe’s eyes move: "Let him in."

Dalisi Cheng, equivalent to a modern-day high court official. It’s impossible for him to casually seek an audience with a Thousand Cattle Guard like Li Changhe, who is a Zhonglang General. The Thousand Cattle Guard are the emperor’s personal guards in the Tang Dynasty, and Li Changhe’s rank is neither high nor low.

Big things have no use for him, and small things have no reason to involve him. So, it’s most likely... a [Player].

With this thought, Li Changhe directly reveals his [Player Nameplate] to avoid any awkwardness if he is mistaken.

Only [Players] can see [Player Nameplates], and it’s the only proof of identity.

Fortunately, he guessed right. The visitor is dressed in a brocade robe, with a handsome face. He is followed by an attendant, a tall and powerful man dressed like an officer. He is most likely a Military Marquis.

Seeing Li Changhe’s [Player Nameplate], both of them visibly relax.

They reveal their own [Moonlight Throne·Moon God][Heavy Punch].

Li Changhe nods slightly and says to the soldier leading the way: "Wait outside, and let me know if anyone else comes to visit."

"Yes."

After the soldier leaves, Moon God says with a worried face: "You’re finally here, we’ve been waiting for you for two days."

Li Changhe is surprised: "Is our entrance time into the Instance different?" In his view, he has only been in the role for about an hour.
