Chapter 889: Choice, Giving Up
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At the moment Happy came out of his bedroom, he immediately sensed the incredibly solemn atmosphere in the living room. Right when he opened his door, more than forty pairs of eyes went straight to him and were fixated on his face. It was as if their eyes were spotlights.
“The host finally decided to show up.” Chen Fan stroked his chest in an exaggerated manner and exhaled fiercely. “Happy, hurry up and tell us what’s going on today. This group of people all have such dark thoughts, and they’ve been making wild guesses. Rascal even said that you intend to work with Silver Wolf and kidnap all the elites in Mu Clan.”
“I did not say that.” NotaRascal glared at him. He felt wronged.
Happy moved out completely from his bedroom and arrived next to Xu Xin. He looked over Xu Yao and naturally sat between the two girls, and while his group of friends started making a ruckus, he threw them a bomb.
“Based on Wandering Know-it-all’s information, many of the foreign organizations have made close contact with Cla.s.s One Hall, and that includes America’s Dragon Sect, Russia’s MMORPG guilds, at least two powerful people on the Great People Rank, and the creator of the International Great People Rank—the Prophet.”
Silence fell.
Not only did the people who had been prepared to tease Happy hold their breaths, even Silver Wolf, who had been prepared for this a long time ago, was shocked by this sudden news. Je stared at Happy.
‘Is this real?’
Silver Wolf’s eyes were filled with disbelief, and he found this to be completely unexpected.
It had been less than one hour since they parted ways, and Happy brought out such an astonis.h.i.+ng piece of news from the game. It caught him off guard, and he even suspected whether this was a preparation for Happy to instigate the four sects into action against Cla.s.s One Hall.
But when he thought about how this information came from Wandering Know-it-all, he immediately scowled and thought about this deeply.
More than twenty people in the living room had almost similar expressions on their faces.
“Is Dream Clouds mad?”
“She’s inviting disaster to her own doorstep. How could she do this?”
“Duh, Cla.s.s One Hall is already in a very bad situation. What else can she not do? But this is seriously an extreme move. She went to ask for reinforcements, and she even brought over so many powerful foreign organizations. It won’t be easy for us to take down Cla.s.s One Hall.”
The rest nodded in silence.
While the people discussed this, Happy was paying attention to Xu Yao’s reaction.
Just as he expected, her expressions changed a little.
Originally, he should not bring out the topic of going up against Cla.s.s One Hall right in front of her, and he did not want to either, but unfortunately for him, Xu Yao was currently one of the higher ups in Mu Clan, and she mingled around with Xu Xin like sisters. No matter how he tried to keep such a major operation a secret, he will definitely reveal signs about it, which was why he already decided to attack overtly.
He was already fully prepared in his attack for Cla.s.s One Hall, except for one thing.
But Happy found himself a little unable to deal with Xu Yao.
If Silver Wolf had not appeared to let Happy understand more about Xu Yao, Happy might have actually taken care of her along with Cla.s.s One Hall.
But now, he found himself unable to.
Happy could only try to affect indirectly and hope that Xu Yao will choose between her friends and Cla.s.s One Hall.

While the group discussed matters with each other, Phoenix Dances suddenly looked toward Happy. “Happy, you entered the game just now to contact Chivalry Sect and the other two sects, right?”
“That’s right.” Happy nodded and looked over the group in the living room. He said, “On the first day of the Emperor’s Announcement event, I already told myself and some of us here that once the event ends, the first thing I will do is to destroy Cla.s.s One Hall.”
Silence.
The living room immediately became much quieter than before. Only Happy’s voice and the people’s heartbeats could be heard.
“Today, I will tell you this. Since Dream Clouds intends to throw the Chinese server into chaos, then so be it! I will destroy Cla.s.s One Hall beforehand.”
The group of people in the living room had their spirits lifted. Phoenix Dances and the rest had their eyes instantly light up.
“You’ve decided to attack?!”
But no smile could be detected on Happy’s face. “I might have decided on it, but the situation is not good for us.”
“What do you mean?”
“Based on the information All-powerful Medicinal Stone and Wandering Know-it-all gave me, two days later, when the Emperor’s Announcement event officially ends, there will be two groups of people who will enter the plains. One of them is from Dragon Sect, and the other group is from Persia. Snake King Gupta will personally lead his own group into the plains as well, and along with him will be Vietnam’s Life and Death Fist Asura!”
“Snake King?!”
“I’m not worried about Life and Death Fist, and I’ve seen Snake King’s battle replay before. His body movements are strange, and he’s insanely fast. His snakes are also very powerful. The large ones can fight against Myth Realm martial artists, and the small ones can easily poison those below Myth Realm. If you run into him, you have to be careful.”
“Don’t stray from the topic. Let Happy finish speaking.” Silver Wolf glared at Knife, who laughed bashfully and quickly shut up so that he said no more.
“I’m not worried about Snake King. Golden Thread Snake King isn’t that much weaker than his king cobra. I’m mentioning them because we have to fend against their actions of hara.s.sing our rear when they enter the plains.”
Happy reminded them of one thing earnestly. “It’s impossible for us to take down Cla.s.s One Hall within one to two days, but if our core is completely emptied before we destroy Cla.s.s One Hall’s headquarters, it’ll be a real joke.”
“You’re worried that Snake King will bring his group of people to get to our rear?”
“I’m not worried about that. He doesn’t need to mobilize forces from Persia to get to our backs. He can just take forces from Cla.s.s One Hall.” Happy reminded them. “If they enter the south through the coastal area and work together with the elites from Persia and Vietnam, it will be very difficult for us to last through their a.s.sault. Hence, I’ve decided to have Wind and Rain Alliance as well as the people from Wind a.s.sault Tower to lock down and defend the coastal lines, the southern areas, and the coastal area to the east. Mu Clan…” Happy stopped talking for a moment before he said firmly and clearly, “Mu Clan will be the ones dealing with Cla.s.s One Hall with Chivalry Sect!”
“Mu Clan and Chivalry Sect will be the only ones sending out forces to attack Cla.s.s One Hall?”
Happy nodded. “That’s right.”
“Hence, we will have absolutely no advantage in numbers.” Phoenix Dances quickly noticed Mu Clan’s disadvantage.
They will be fighting a war far away from their base. Forget about the fact that they will not be familiar with the terrain and have a disadvantage in numbers, they will also suffer a huge loss if they fight this war for a long period of time.
“I know, that’s why we have to end this war as soon as possible!” Happy’s eyes burned while he said firmly, “We will give up on all the quests on the plains and transfer all our forces ahead of time.”
After he finished speaking, the group of people in the living room were instantly stunned.
They had been fighting a difficult war for more than twenty days, and they were about to win, but now, they had to move out of the quest region?
No one said anything.
Even Silver Wolf was a little surprised by the decision Happy made. The NPCs will definitely leave after the event ended. At that time, if they missed out on the rewards, they will suffer too great of a loss!
Only Xu Yao, who had remained silent all this while, had shock and bewilderment flash in her eyes. She could not help but cry out loud. “You’re gathering all forces and transferring them away…? Could it be that you’re intending to fight against Cla.s.s One Hall immediately?!”
Her voice was originally very soft, but since everyone was silent, she was still heard by many people. They sucked in sharp breaths, and they could not help but look at Happy simultaneously.
“That’s right.” Happy cast Xu Yao a profound glance. The blood in his chest burned hotly, and he stood up quickly. “I’ve already made a decision with Wind Void, Phantasmal Shadow, and Night Rain Follows Wind. We’ve decided to do it now! It’s midnight in the game, and visibility on the plains is at its lowest. Once we go back, tell everyone to exchange their points for rewards and make preparations. The people from Wind and Rain Alliance will lead their cavalier unit to clear the path for us and create disturbances.
“Tonight, we will split out forces into four units, and we will first cut off one of Cla.s.s One Hall’s arms!”
