Chapter 56: Shangshan Ruoshui?
Shangshan Ruoshui?
That angry young man?
In his previous life, among the hundreds of millions of players in Huaxia, there were not many names that Mo Xiaobai could actually remember. Aside from the players he had contacted around him, the rest were all people who had done a few “big things.”
The first time Mo Xiaobai knew about Shangshan Ruoshui was in the fifth year after the Plane opened, when the first large-scale transnational Instance Quest appeared.
In that Instance Space, players from more than a dozen Asian countries engaged in direct face-to-face competition. It was also in that transnational Instance that Shangshan Ruoshui became famous in a single battle.
And he became famous by stepping on the corpse of someone named “Hattori Hanzo.”
“I remember what he said in the Forum interview was ‘The quest can fail, but the Wa People must die.’ Just because of this sentence, he attracted countless fans in the Huaxia Forum.”
In Mo Xiaobai’s eyes, Shangshan Ruoshui was a very interesting Huaxia Player. This guy seemed to be naturally restraining the Island Country Ninjas. His Territory was also by the sea, so he had been fighting with several Island Country Lords for the control of some important islands. His exposure in the Plane remained high in the later period.
In his previous life, when Mo Xiaobai worked as a reseller, he went out to sea a few times. Although he did not see Shangshan Ruoshui in person, he had been to his maritime trade Territory. Many things on it were snatched from the Wa Country, including some Wa Country Specialty Items. Mo Xiaobai made a lot of money by reselling them several times.
If he came to find me, what would he say?
“Let him say a word in the Huaxia Region channel, and I will add him.” Mo Xiaobai thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
Luyu grinned when he heard this: “Okay, then I won’t chat for now. I will find you when I have time.”
After hanging up the communication with Luyu, Mo Xiaobai just opened the Player channel. Within three or four seconds, he saw Shangshan Ruoshui bubbling up in the Huaxia Region channel, saying an advertisement for the Ritian Alliance to recruit people.
Mo Xiaobai could not help but laugh, and then confirmed the name and sent a friend request.
A second later, seeing the friend request passed, Mo Xiaobai sent a call request.
“Great God? Is that you?”
“If you are looking for Daydreaming, then it can only be me.” Mo Xiaobai answered with a faint smile. The next moment, he heard an excited response in his ear:
“That’s great. I finally contacted the Great God. I just saw the post you posted, Great God. When will you take us out to beat down that group of Wa Country people?”
“Cough, cough, we can’t go out to sea right now. Why, do you really want to do a job?”
“Of course. The Wa Country should have been sent to that Lost Graveyard you mentioned long ago, Great God. By the way, if we occupy the Wa Country, can we make them get the hell out of here?”
This kid!
He really can’t go three sentences without destroying the Wa Country.
Mo Xiaobai thought for a while and stated the conditions for the National War that he knew from his previous life: “Theoretically, it should be so. If the Territory Steles of all the Lords in the Wa Country are broken, the Wa Country National Stele will appear. Shattering the National Stele is equivalent to destroying a nation.”
“Then if the Wa Country fights us, they are bound to lose. Huaxia has a vast land and a large population. That tiny place in the Wa Country is not even enough for our Ritian Alliance to snatch.”
The angry young man on the other end said this, then suddenly remembered that he came with a mission. He immediately chuckled and said: “I forgot to talk to the Great God about the main business. We want to invite the Great God to serve as the Alliance Master of the Ritian Alliance, which is the moderator of that sub-Forum. The current moderator is my sister. If you come, Great God, she will give the moderator position to you.”
“Your sister?”
Mo Xiaobai was stunned when he heard this. In his previous life, he had never heard that Shangshan Ruoshui had a sister.
However, thinking that he had no interaction with Shangshan Ruoshui in his previous life, and his sister was probably not famous either, she naturally would not be known by the general Players.
“Yes, the Ritian Alliance was established by my sister pulling her friends together at the beginning.” In order to complete the “mission,” Shangshan Ruoshui spared no effort to praise his sister: “Don’t underestimate my sister, Great God. If not for this planetary mutation, she would have been a super scholar recommended to MIT.”
“Is that so?”
Mo Xiaobai smiled, and finally shook his head: “I’m sorry, I am used to keeping a low profile and don’t really like playing in the Forum. I approve of the Ritian Alliance in principle, but if you want me to join, I think I’d better pass.”
“Great God, you aren’t coming?”
Thinking the “mission” was in the bag, it was suddenly rejected. Shangshan Ruoshui was a bit unaccustomed: “Great God, please think about it. We are all very united, and we also have some powerful Lords here. When the time comes to fight the Wa Country, you can totally go with us. Even if their Wa Country Players eat a lot of tonics, they definitely won’t be our opponents.”
“No need to persuade me. As of now, I will not join.”
“Great God, do you mean that there might be a possibility in the future?”
“Uh, I didn’t say that.”
Mo Xiaobai didn’t expect that kid to actually catch his wording error, and immediately shook his head: “Besides, dealing with Wa Country Players, sometimes there is no need to do it personally. I never regarded them as formidable enemies either.”
After Mo Xiaobai said this, the other end seemed to fall into silence.
After a while, Mo Xiaobai heard Shangshan Ruoshui’s voice again: “Great God, although I also feel that Wa Country Players are not our opponents, they still have some strength. This time they found the Territory Specialty ‘Nine-colored Spirit Clam’, and their strength will definitely increase day by day. Great God, you can’t look down on them, or you will really suffer.”
Suffer?
Reborn and returned, I, Mo Xiaobai, will eat anything, but I definitely won’t suffer.
Mo Xiaobai laughed secretly in his heart. He knew that Shangshan Ruoshui was genuinely concerned about him, or rather, concerned about himself who had currently become the flag of the Huaxia Players.
But to let him join the Ritian Alliance for this reason, Mo Xiaobai would still give a refusing answer.
After thinking for a breath, Mo Xiaobai jokingly said: “How about this, let’s make a bet, how about it?”
“What bet does the Great God want to make?”
“Let’s take one month as the limit. If the Lord Players of the Wa Country do not encounter a great disaster after one month, then I lose. If I lose, I can join your Ritian Alliance.”
“Great disaster? What do you mean, Great God?”
“A disaster that can at least reduce the number of Wa Country Lord Players by forty percent. Less than forty percent counts as my loss.”
Wa Country Lord Players, reduced by forty percent?
Wouldn’t that be several times more ruthless than the previous bandit sweep?
What kind of disaster would have to happen for that?
Volcano? Tsunami? Earthquake?
Shangshan Ruoshui could not guess, but this did not stop him from deciding to accept this bet. At least by accepting the bet, he still had a slight possibility of completing the task assigned by the Alliance.
“Okay, since the Great God wants to bet, I will bet with you, Great God. If a great disaster really occurs in the Wa Country in a month, I will acknowledge you as my Big Brother, Great God. I will go wherever you tell me to go, and I will listen to you even if I don’t join the Alliance.”
Shangshan Ruoshui said this while not forgetting to play his own little trick: “If the Wa Country does not experience a great disaster, my sister and I will be waiting for the Great God’s arrival in the Ritian Alliance.”
