"The people from Mu Clan..."
"Happy! It's Happy! He finally appeared!"
"More than twenty thousand points? Whew..."
"Dream Clouds and Blood Robes had their points drained to zero, and they're out of War Achievement Points Rank. By the looks of it, it's Happy's doing."
"We'll have an entertaining show next."
"They're locked in a tight struggle everywhere, and now, Class One Hall and Mu Clan will definitely attack each other brutally."
"Hey, I heard that the Class One Hall branches at Changjiang River Basin and the borders have been mobilizing their forces frequently, and I think that those two top-class sects won't have a chance of fighting for points with us in the future."
"Everyone, we'll have to seize the chance. Now's the time for us to get points..."
While they were on their way back to the logistics camp, there were quite a few players who talked about this while they delighted in the misery the two top-class sects will definitely suffer during the subsequent conflict. Since Class One Hall had caused such a stir, the other players were also at a state of high alert, and there was a storm brewing underneath.
But they seldom ran into Class One Hall members.
Once Dream Clouds and Blood Robes died and more than four thousand Class One Hall elites were sent back to Aru City, the people from Class One Hall looked as if they had disappeared from the surface of the earth. They saw none of them.
A large group of Mu Clan members reached the logistics camp with the momentum of a tidal wave and went straight to one of the two main camps that will allow them to exchange their war achievements for rewards.
"Ah, Young Swordsman Happy, it's you. You've obtained quite the glorious amount of war achievements, and I've wanted to meet you for a long time..."
The general of the imperial court who was stationed near the ranking board and was tasked to give out quests based on the players' war achievements had a stern look on his face, but he did not hide the respect he had for the youngster in front of him."Young swordsman, are you here to check your war achievements?"
"No, I came to hand in my quest."
Happy did not hesitate. He handed over the result of his first quest—Scouting Quest—which was a map of the military situation near the enemy camp.
The imperial court quickly took over the map and looked at it. A grave look shone in his eyes, along with great delight."Perfect! Young Swordsman Happy, you've actually entered so deeply into the enemy camp? This is a detailed map of the area near their camp! With this map, our army will be able to know the location of their reconnoiterers and patrolling cavaliers. When we make our advances, it will be much safer.
"This map is too precious to us! It'll be of great help to us! I'll definitely report this to the imperial court and give you a great reward as well as a military title!"
He said these words in excitement. Then, he widened his eyes, and they sparkled even further.
"Unbelievable! This is... Young Swordsman Happy, you actually managed to get information about Zhao Deyan, the enemy's military adviser?!"
His last sentence had actually exceeded Happy's expectations a little.
Happy was slightly stunned. 'Zhao Deyan's information? When did I gather it? How did I not know? Could it be that there is a hidden information gathering segment in the Scouting Quest?'
When the general said this, he suddenly stopped talking, and when Happy was mulling over this, the general had already turned around hastily before he quickly entered the camp behind him!
This scene caused the other people who came to hand in their quests or to get quests from the main camp looked at each other at a loss. Then, their gazes landed on Happy, and they were incredibly shocked.
Soon, a loud announcement spread through the event region!
"By the will of the gods, His Majesty will now declare his orders! The hero of the plains, Gusu's Blue-robed Hero Happy has gone through various difficulties during the largely dangerous scouting mission at the enemy rear. He has drawn a detailed map of the enemy camp and has even completed his mission more than what was requested! He brought the map safely back to the camp, and his war achievements are splendid! The marshal has allowed him to stay in the army to continue contributing to the war effort, and he has decided to specially promote him to a senior-rank captain along with giving him another five thousand points!"
When he heard the system announcement, Happy was completely stunned.
The Scouting Quest only provided one thousand points, and he did not even do a 100% completion for that quest because he did not do all the segments in it. After all, he did not find out the supply route.
He did not expect that he was able to get the title of a senior-rank captain, and he had even received an extra five thousand points from it?!
'Is this a joke? Did they make a mistake or what?'
In his puzzlement, Happy quickly brought out his quest log and read it.
When he did, he finally saw the hints leading to this event.
Before he ran into Demon General Zhao Deyan, he had already finished drawing the map, but from the moment he ran into Zhao Deyan, the quest log stated that his topography map had continued updating on its own. The originally crude map started becoming detailed, and Zhao Deyan's attacks, strength, and other information were gradually recorded as well.
The system also provided him with occasional notifications of gathering Demon General Zhao Deyan's basic information.
Then, he started obtaining detailed information about it.
It went from the Demon General showing astonishing strength to recording how the Demon General remained safe even when he was struck by Three Dragons Sword Qi, and because of it, he already gathered secret information about the Demon General.
When he saw this, Happy gained a vague understanding of what happened.
It seemed like if he ran into enemy generals during his quest period, the difficulty of the quest will automatically increase, and the system will also record the information about the Demon General information on its own. From it, the players can gain points. Of course, the prerequisite was that they must bring the information back alive.
Even though he ended up being in a very pathetic state during his fight against Zhao Deyan, he did manage to escape while sulking. But now, by the looks of it, he did not come out of it without obtaining anything.
A normal map about the military situation of the enemy rear had turned into a valuable map, and the quality of the map became much higher.
Whoosh!
While Happy gradually cleared his thoughts, the flap of the tent was lifted, and the general walked swiftly out of the tent with a red flush on his face. His hands were empty, and it was clear that the map had already been handed to someone else.
"Young Swordsman Happy, the marshal has already given his orders. Due to the value of the map, we have decided to promote you to a senior-rank captain!"
The system notification arrived right then.
"Ding!
"Obtained title of a senior-rank captain!"
Before the voice of the system even faded away, the general had already started speaking."Also, the marshal has stated clearly that the secret information you brought over about the enemy camp's Demon General must be kept a secret. Hence, the five thousand points we gave you as an extra reward—"
The system notification came once more.
"Ding!
"Obtained five thousand points!
"Obtained a reward worth five thousand points!"
"Young Swordsman Happy, ah, no... I should call you Captain Happy, you currently have 33, 445 points. You can get the resources you need from General Kong on the camp over there. You can also get soldiers of different classes which he drafted from him. I think that you'll definitely be very pleased with it."
Happy was already delighted that he obtained the title of a senior-rank captain. His mood became much better, and he immediately thanked the general before he headed to the neighboring camp unthinkingly.
Since he had already triggered the quests for the senior-ranked captains beforehand, it was only natural that he exchanged his points for the large cavalier unit he will need immediately and activate the Harassment Quest for the large cavalier unit, which they had planned earlier.
"It's the third senior-rank captain!"
"Oh gosh... Look at the ranking board! Happy's points have increased by another ten thousand, and it's thirty thousand now!"
"Whew... it's thirty-three thousand points... Look at Happy, he should be prepared to get a whole unit of cavaliers... It's a large cavalier unit! I think that even Langye, who's the first to become a senior-rank captain, only managed to get a middle-sized cavalier unit!"
At that time, the players in the area were also so shocked that it was already impossible for them to be shocked any further. They started talking to each other nonstop.
When they saw that Happy had headed to the camp where they can exchange points for rewards, they became incredibly excited, and they followed behind him and surrounded him.
Silver Wolf, Thunderous Battle, and a large group of Mu Clan elites also heard about the news and charged over.
