Chapter 569: Chapter 245: 1 Day Left (Happy New Year)

As the school term began, the students returned to their usual intense studying atmosphere.

The difference was that physical fitness training classes had been added to every grade in schools across Hua Country, regardless of how busy the other courses were.

The protesting parents and teachers received no response.

So, it’s the fate of cycles.

In the past, when culture class teachers slammed their textbooks onto the lectern, they would announce the replacement of the physical education class with another one, causing a chorus of wailing.

Now, physical education teachers didn’t care. They would just chuckle, stuff the textbook back into the hands of another teacher, and take away the students.

So, the playground was filled with energetic youth.

Watching those graceful girls with flushed faces from intense exercise, complaining about some mischievous strands of hair, Li chatted with his friends.

Old Zhao, who was resting nearby, couldn’t help but sigh, "It’s very tiring, but... it’s really pleasing to the eye."

Li Changhe nodded but didn’t say anything.

Old Zhao thought for a moment and continued, "Goudan, did something happen when we were retreating?"

This question had been bothering him for a long time. When they were retreating from the north bank, he had a vague feeling that something had happened. Yet no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t recall, and no one around had this feeling.

In Old Zhao’s original memory, Liu Tao and the others died in the furniture city to save him. This strong stimulus was still noticeable after memory deletion and modification, making him feel that something was wrong.

Sometimes, when looking at certain things, he would have a sense of déjà vu. And when he saw a girl with a sprained ankle, he felt a strong sense of familiarity.

However, with time, the implied effect would gradually make him ignore this déjà vu feeling.

"No, we retreated from the north bank peacefully," Li Changhe sighed inwardly as he patted Old Zhao’s shoulder, then changed the topic: "Shall we go for another run?"

"No, no. I’m out of breath. I’m not like you, a sports student, running four laps without breaking a sweat," Old Zhao waved his hand, "I’ll rest for a while."

Now the physical education classes were not just for fun, they were designed to improve physical fitness.

Old Zhao had just run three laps and was exhausted.

Li Changhe, on the other hand, didn’t feel tired at all. Even before becoming a [Player], his physical fitness had been excellent.

Now, he simply wanted to sit quietly at the side. Of course, to outsiders, it looked like he was slacking off.

However, he was not as relaxed as he seemed, and he was constantly communicating with his friends in his consciousness.

There was only one day left before the Great Tang mission.

A few days ago, the authenticity of the forum post about the mission was confirmed by the officials.

Indeed, someone was targeting the owners of Great Tang mission items, and their identity was unknown.

They didn’t know what method was used, but they were able to accurately find the [Player] who had the mission items.

This was inconceivable for any faction, even for officials.

"Such precision in finding players can’t be achieved by any of the countries’ officials, unless the Evolution Game... issued some tasks specifically targeting the owners of Tang items," was Luo Kai’s reply to Li Changhe.

Although it was just a guess, it seemed like there was only this possibility other than the Evolution Game itself.

Otherwise, who could be so accurate in finding players?

After learning the news, the [Players]’ reactions varied.

First of all, [Exchange] quickly listed over a dozen Tang mission items for sale.

Some players who owned Tang items decided to sell them to avoid trouble or protect themselves.

Even [Heaven’s Principle], who hadn’t shown up for a long time in the [Mountain and River Alliance] discussion group, spoke up.

[Heaven’s Principle: If you have Tang mission items, please sell them as soon as possible. I don’t want any of you to be inadvertently killed.]

[Firewood: What? Didn’t you guys build the alliance with us to prevent this kind of event? Now you’re saying this? What’s the point of our alliance?]

Indeed, the main reason for the formation of the Mountain and River Alliance was that in the period following the last update, the heavy-handed players organization was ruthlessly eradicated.

The various small organizations joined the alliance for self-protection. Large organizations like [Awei Protection Association], [Layna, Please Sit], and [Water-Spraying Dragon King] were also established because of this.

At least, in name, it was how the Mountain and River Alliance was formed.

[Spider Web: Do you guys know anything? Share some information. It’s Xu Zhi who is speaking, right? In addition to causing trouble, give us some useful information. If we need to avoid the Black Palace to enter the mission, let us know, or we’ll quit.]

[General Mountain: That’s right, or we’ll turn against you.]

[Firewood: Overthrow them!]

[Sword Mist: Overthrow them!]

[General Mountain: Overthrow the Dragon King!]

[Heaven’s Principle: Everyone, please be calm. This is just out of concern for your safety. If you do want to enter the Great Tang, please be cautious.]

"Heaven’s Principle will not be participating in the Great Tang World this time," Wang Er sent a message in the [Friend]: "They somehow received the news and traded away all the Tang items. So, I won’t be able to participate either."

Li Changhe originally planned to gather all his friends in the Tang mission.

Take the opportunity to eliminate a few members of Heaven’s Principle, but this plan failed.

So, after that, many Tang mission items changed hands.

This might just be the intention of the opponent. After all, even the officials failed to grab many. Most of them were bought anonymously during the sale.

It was clear that the opponent played a trick on them.

"Some players are very tough. According to some, there will be champion-level players joining the mission," Moon God informed Li Changhe, "You should know what the so-called champion-level players are, right? They are the experts who have achieved victory in highly challenging PvP missions. It’s hard to find an opponent at the same stage."

"I know." Li Changhe himself was considered a champion-level player by Chen Guang.

Although he didn’t feel much difference.

The fact that Moon God revealed wasn’t some secret. There were players who feared and fled, while others were eager to fight.

There were already many related posts on the [forum], stating that top players would be sent to the mission.

Even the officials would send a few LV10 or lower [Holders] to participate in the mission.

Demon Armor Holders, champion-level players, and those enemies with unclear intentions.

The atmosphere in the Tang mission was getting more dangerous.

If things went wrong, conflicts might erupt even before dealing with the narrative enemies.

Li Changhe slowly exhaled, calculating his tactics and trump cards.

As one of the five people who created the world line, he had the home-field advantage in the Great Tang.

"There’s still a day left before going to the Great Tang... I don’t know if my cheap foster father is still alive, and I don’t know if the title ’hero’ still works in that period of Tang."
