Chapter 2072: Chapter 691: Scampering Away? Pah, Who Do You Think We Are!

“I’ll entrust it to you.”

“If you find it unsuitable, you can return it to the church after the battle.”

After speaking, Natalie whistled to summon her warhorse, Maple Leaf. She donned her helmet and strapped on the greatsword before mounting the horse. With a wave to the player congregation behind her, she galloped forward.

The Power of Nature coalesced into a green cloud enveloping her, quickly taking her out of sight.

“Ah, I never realized that Lady Natalie speaks so directly,” someone remarked.

“Lady Shui, who had been forcefully gifted a powerful weapon, was full of complaints she couldn’t express. Yet, her husband, Brother Huozi, was delighted. It’s just the way his formidable wife is; while others strive to obtain good items through quests, she just gets handed a powerful weapon by an NPC.”

Had Lady Natalie not been a woman, Brother Huozi might have questioned whether his wife’s charm was so overwhelming that even NPCs couldn’t resist it!

“What kind of look is that?”

Lady Shui nudged her husband stealthily, urging him to stop overthinking, and then she opened the weapon box.

While other players watched with envy, she grasped the Natural Holy Blade·Green Wind. The long war bow of Greeney style she held was adorned with blooming flowers and twining vines, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura, far from ordinary.

The newbies learned from veteran players that many more such powerful items existed in the Avalon Church’s backstory, over a hundred, sparking thoughts of swearing loyalty to Avalon’s Boss, perhaps as a promising career plan upon return.

At this moment, Brother Meow came back online.

Shaking his head, he said,

“The situation’s a bit troublesome; Pleasure Stick indeed didn’t take two Barrier Cores.

Those things are now right in the ruins before us. If we want to maximize the power of the Star-world Tear over at Fortress of Courage, we must risk retrieving and escorting the Crystal Core back there…”

“Ding! Important Plot Decision·’Endure and Tolerate or Strongly Counterattack’ Triggered!”

Event Description:

The shameless Wolf People have colluded with their vile heretical allies, launching a fatal strike on Blackflame Mountain Pass while the Transia People were off guard. The battlefield’s situation has reached the worst outcome, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing left for us to do.

Governor Murphy has returned to the battlefield!

He has heard of the Foreign Warriors’ imaginative yet absolutely viable counterattack plans. He believes this could be the fiercest counterattack for the tormented land of Blackflame Mountain Pass, which he confirms will deliver a stinging blow to the Split-claw Jackal-man.

Now, the only problem is that to initiate the Big Star-world Tear at Fortress of Courage, it’s necessary to find two lost Barrier Cores scattered across the battlefield.

This is extremely risky behavior that might lead to your complete annihilation.

Governor Murphy never compels his warriors, so he leaves the choice to you: should you seek justice for the casualties at Blackflame Mountain Pass, or flee like broken-spirited old dogs amidst the jeers of the Wolf People?

Please make your choice.

Hint!

This plot decision will directly affect the outcome of the offense and defense at Blackflame Mountain Pass! Therefore, all players who activated this decision are urged to take it seriously!

Hint!

Currently, the number of players who can accept this decision task is 514. To complete the decision, the number of players choosing one option must exceed two-thirds.

Hint!

This decision task is extremely challenging, so be prepared for the worst.

Task Reward:

Once the three Serenade Boundary Core Crystals are delivered to Fortress of Courage, Governor Murphy will bring an important item and personally proceed there to oversee the Grand Star Realm Rupture Ritual, delivering an unforgettable lesson to the Split-claw Jackal-man.

Task Failure Conditions:

All participating players perish on the battlefield, the Crystal Core cannot be retrieved, and the power of Star-world Tear at Fortress of Courage is too weak to prevent the tragic outcome at Blackflame Mountain Pass.

Developers’ Hint!

This task will not affect the main storyline of Black Disaster. Regardless of completion, it will progress to the second stage of the Wave of Darkness main story. However, if this task is completed, it will have a direct impact on the situation in the second stage.

Due to its extreme difficulty, paired with its potential to influence the outcome of a war, completing this task can unlock the third phase of ‘Transia Hall of Fame’ selection. The fifteen best performers in the task will be granted the title of ‘Transia Hero’ and enjoy Hall of Fame privileges.”

“Damn! The communication feature of this thing restored itself?”

Brother Meow was startled by the sudden notification sound.

He had just finished reading the decision hint and was about to seek the opinions of others but, upon turning, saw five hundred pairs of eyes shining like bulbs staring at him, akin to encountering a pack of wolves on a night road, causing panic.

“I know what you want to ask! Don’t emphasize how difficult this task is! I don’t care!”

Little Wei Ming, flying in the air, waved his Iron Hammer Guard and shouted:

“I only know it will launch the third phase of the Hall of Fame selection! You’re already a Hall of Fame member, but we’re not! We want the cool and powerful Chainsaw Sword too! I don’t care! I’m taking this decision task!

For the Chainsaw Sword, charge, charge, charge!”
