Chapter 134: Battle of Zhuolu (Part 8)

Ouyang Shuo opened the battle contribution leaderboard only to see himself alone and lonely with 500 points. Behind him were just a string of blank spaces waiting to be filled up.

The activation of the battle contribution leaderboard signaled the start of the Battle of Zhuolu.

At this moment in time, Di Chen had just went online only to hear the battle report. He fumed. "That brat got ahead once again. How is his luck always so good?"

"He was just lucky." Sha Pojun who was standing by his side said.

"No matter what, after this battle is over I will immediately apply to upgrade to a grade 1 county. We will see how he reacts then." Di Chen said coldly, memories of what had happened during the auction still fresh in his mind.

"Wouldn't that be too rushed?" Juedai Fenghua frowned.

Di Chen shook his head. "We can't wait anymore. Any longer and Shanhai Town will also apply to upgrade. At that point it would be too late to regret. This time we must crush that arrogant Qiyue Wuyi. If not, how will we survive in the Chinese server?"

Juedai Fenghua kept quiet. The way she saw it, Di Chen was ruffled by Qiyue Wuyi and was like he was being possessed by a devil, not listening to any of her advice or warnings. This was not a good sign.

......

Ouyang Shuo walked out of the palace, and he searched for the others who were still looking for quests in Yellow Emperor city.

"Wuyi, have you received a quest?" Bai Hua asked.

Ouyang Shuo nodded. "That's right. I got two quests which are to deliver a letter to the Fire Emperor tribe as well as to investigate the Chiyou tribe. The B rank branch quest [Investigation] can be shared, so we can complete it together."

"That's great. We walked around the village but couldn't get anything." Bai Hua laughed.

Ouyang Shuo opened the quest menu and activated the sharing of the quest.

"System Nnotification: Please select players to to share the B branch quest [Investigation]. Reminder: You cannot share with more than 5 people."

"Bai Hua, Feng Qinhuang, Mu Lanyue and Gong Chengshi."

"System Notification: Shared to 4 people, after completing the mission, the person who started the quest will get 50% of the rewards while the rest will get 25% each."

This was the benefit of the quest sharing. Although his rewards were cut in half, adding the team rewards, the rewards became more instead. If the completion rate of the mission was high enough, there would be additional bonuses.

"This investigation quest will be led by Hong Ying and Gong Chengshi. I will arrange a scouting team and a cavalry team to help." Ouyang Shuo said.

"You won't go take a look yourself?" Gong Chengshi asked doubtfully.

Ouyang Shuo shook his head. "No, with you and Hong Ying I'll have no worries. I also need to go deliver a letter to the Fire Emperor."

"Okay,"

After discussing who would lead the mission, Ouyang Shuo left Bai Hua and Feng Qiuhuang to continue to look for more missions in Yellow Emperor City while he brought Gong Chengshi and Mu Lanyue back to the camp.

After returning to camp, Ouyang Shuo explained simply to the secretary of Military Intelligence Song San and the captain of the 2nd cavalry squadron Sun Tengjiao, telling them to work together with Hong Ying and Gong Chengshi to complete the mission.

As for Ouyang Shuo himself, he brought Mu Lanyue and the first cavalry squadron towards the Fire Emperor tribe.

The Fire Emperor tribe was located west of Taixing mountain, which was 10 kilometers away from Yellow Emperor City. Between the two cities were no roads and was full of wild grass, making it very hard to travel. It took him four and a half hours to get to the Fire Emperor camp. Luckily on the way there, they didn't meet any spies or troops from the Chiyou tribe.
