Chapter 330: 330, The second expansion pack ‘The Kings’ Conflict’ goes online_1
After becoming the champion, Sky Dragon hurried to Su Yu’s Mage Tower immediately.
After all, he wanted to share the joy of winning with his closest friend.
But when he heard what Su Yu was saying, he couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of his mouth: “Client…”
That word stirred up some unpleasant memories from when he was still working at the Mu Yun Company.
Those wealthy female clients…
Anyway, he didn’t want to think about it anymore.
Su Yu shook his head: “Sky Dragon, I’m afraid I can’t today.”
Sky Dragon: “Why not today? Is there another woman in your Mage Tower?!”
Su Yu: “Where is your mind going? [Panting soybean emoji] Look at what time it is.”
Sky Dragon: “23:59, what about it?”
Su Yu: “Let’s count down from 10.”
Su Yu: “10”
Su Yu: “9”
Su Yu: “8”
Su Yu: “0”
With the end of Su Yu’s countdown, the time jumps to 0:00 on August 1st.
At this moment, the game sent an announcement to every online player:
“The latest expansion pack [The Kings’ Conflict] will be online at 8 o’clock on August 1st!”
“We will have a system update from 00:03 on August 1st to 8:00 on August 1st. During this time, you will temporarily be unable to enter the game. Once the update is finished, a whole new gaming experience will start! For details of the new update, please check the official website.”
Meanwhile, a three-minute countdown appeared in front of Sky Dragon and Su Yu.
All players must log off within three minutes, or else they will be forcibly kicked offline by the game.
Sky Dragon: “I see [smiley face]. Then, see you at 8 o’clock tomorrow morning!”
Su Yu: “See you tomorrow morning!”
After ending the private chat, Su Yu left a few words for the little Lori Kathy. Then, he logged off with Morning Star.
The other players in the game also hurriedly logged off and excitedly rushed to the official website.
The game’s new expansion pack didn’t have any teasers or even a trailer.
Except for a few players like Su Yu, nobody knew the contents of the new expansion, so they were all very interested.
Back in the real world.
Su Yu sat down by the computer and started looking at the details of the update in the [Evolution] official website, he wanted to see how much it matched with his own memory.
As for Morning Star, she was busy playing with her phone. Su Yu didn’t bother her.
When he clicked on the website, the main title of the website was already changed to [Evolution: The Kings’ Conflict].
Below the title was a long text introducing it:
Under the leadership of the great Empress—[Alice Jie Golden Chrysanthemum], the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire finally defeated the traitor army of Kalet, backed by foreign agents, after two years of fierce battle. The Empire was unified gloriously after 32 years!
However, this war almost exhausted the Empire’s national power. The loss rate of the powerful figures above Fifth Level reached as high as 70%.
What choices would the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire make in response to its restless neighbors?
Below the text introduction were three CG videos.
Su Yu clicked play on each one with interest.
The first CG was about the recap of the Golden Chrysanthemum restoration war.
From the shocking self-destruction in Forest City, to the showdown in Orleans City where Bernina showed up, until finally, Alice personally planted the flag of the Empire in the city lord’s manor of Maple City, and then crowned as the Empress in the Golden Chrysanthemum city.
The entire process flashed by like a slideshow.
This CG was produced based on the actual scenes in the game, so Su Yu saw himself in the CG multiple times.
The protagonist of the second CG is Claude Strathrow of Orleans City’s daughter — [Frandor Streiff].
Frandor knelt before the emperor of the Lai Yin Empire and tearfully recounted the violence of Alise and Tina in front of all the ministers.
In her statement, Tina allowed her troops to torment the innocents in Orleans City.
Her father led the noble people inside the city to argue with Tina, but they were murdered by Alice for no reason.
Frandor pleaded with Emperor Lai Yin to seek justice for her father.
Hearing the description from the one directly involved, the ministers of the Lai Yin Empire were incensed and argued to declare war on the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire and make Queen Alise pay the price.
Finally, Emperor Lai Yin solemnly stood up and pressed down towards the stage:
“I understand everyone’s sentiment. From today onwards, we, the Lai Yin Empire, formally declare war on the Golden Chrysanthemum Empire! To seek justice for the innocent people who lost their lives in Orleans City!”
The second CG ended here.
This CG was also produced based on the actual scenes, Su Yu even saw Sky Dragon standing behind Frandor in the scene.
The disdainful smile at the corner of Sky Dragon’s mouth was clearly captured by Su Yu.
The content of the third CG is a sea battle.
A fleet of Golden Chrysanthemum Royal Navy with red sails is in an intense sea battle with a fleet of Lai Yin Imperial Navy with green sails.
Both sides have about 30 ships each, evenly matched.
But then, a fleet of a hundred ships carrying blue sails suddenly appeared on the sea level behind the Golden Chrysanthemum Navy.
The general of the Golden Chrysanthemum Navy was immediately shocked: “The Navy of the Wind Chime Empire?! How did they appear behind us?”
At this moment, a soldier from inside the ship suddenly reported loudly:
“Reporting to General Lester! Marshal Grantex just communicated to us via magic, he already decided to lead the entire Imperial Navy to surrender to the two empires, and urged us to surrender immediately.”
“What?!”
The last scene of the CG was freeze framed on General Lester’s surprised and angry face to the point of being distorted.
Except for the third one, the other two CGs are slightly different from what Su Yu remembered, but they could be considered more or less the same.
Su Yu didn’t plan to participate much in the next expansion, so he didn’t put too much thought into it.
Below the three CGs was the announcement for this game update.
The announcement reads as follows:
Content of this update:
1. The following new areas are open to all players: [Lai Yin Empire], [Wind Chime Empire], [Dwarf Kingdom], [Elf Kingdom], [Orc Kingdom]… (33 more are omitted)…
