Chapter 1113: Chapter 1083: Returned to Its Rightful Owner
Earth, Hua Country, a university girls’ dormitory
Time: 7:20 AM
A short-haired, capable girl, after dressing neatly, said to the long-haired girl who was staring blankly in the mirror:
"Today there’s the class of the big demon, Ai Wen, are you sure you don’t want to attend?"
Hearing her roommate Liu Jia’s words, the girl Ai Wen snapped back to reality, then shook her head and said:
"Not going."
While saying this, Ai Wen picked up the deluxe version of the "Glory of the Gods" game helmet beside the bed, rubbing it while saying:
"Just tell the teacher I feel unwell at the time."
Liu Jia looked at her roommate and best friend, understanding exactly what she was planning.
But since Ai Wen had already said it, Liu Jia could only say helplessly:
"Alright then."
"I’ll first help you ask the class monitor for leave."
"As for the old demon, whatever her reaction at that time will depend on your good fortune."
Ai Wen turned her head and gave Liu Jia a slight smile:
"Hmm, thank you."
Liu Jia chuckled:
"No thanks."
Saying that, she turned and closed the door, leaving Ai Wen alone in front of the mirror, talking to herself while looking at her own reflection:
"The issue with my cousin can’t be blamed on Feng Hua God, he’s innocent too."
Saying that, Ai Wen forced a smile:
"Come on Ai Wen, you can do it."
Afterwards, Ai Wen rubbed her delicate little face, took a deep breath, and then picked up the game helmet, lying on the bed and logging into the game:
"Respected Chosen One, welcome to the world of ’Glory of the Gods,’ connecting..."

...
Rafam Continent, He Clan Battle Zone, Ueno City
As sunlight shone upon this ancient and mystic continent, it heralded the arrival of a new day.
Hojo Takeshi logged into the game as usual.
However, just emerging from Ueno City’s teleportation array, his ears were filled with chaotic shouting and yelling:
"Get to the city walls, prepare for battle."
"Baga~ The Demon Race is about to attack us."
"Call for reinforcements!!"
What met his eyes was a scene of player chaos, along with squads of city guards rushing towards the gates.
...
Just then, a Talisman Master named Muki Yuichi ran over to Hojo Takeshi, looking visibly anxious:
"Hojo Takeshi-kun, something really bad happened."
Hojo Takeshi frowned:
"What’s going on?"
Muki Yuichi immediately replied:
"The Demon Race is on the move, they’re making a move, what should we do."
Upon hearing this, Hojo Takeshi instantly rebuked angrily:
"Baga!"
"They’re not dead, so of course they’re moving, what’s the big deal?!"
Then Hojo Takeshi roughly shoved Muki Yuichi to the side:
"Move aside."
Saying so, he hurriedly headed towards the city gate.
Only then did Muki Yuichi realize his slip of the tongue, quickly caught up, and explained:
"The Demon Race is preparing to attack us."
"Hojo Takeshi-kun, we probably can’t hold them off, what should we do."
Upon hearing this, Hojo Takeshi replied impatiently:
"Idiot."
"How can our Yamato Race say something so defeatist like that?"
Although saying this, Hojo Takeshi’s face remained seriously worried.
Simply because the number of Demon Race gathered outside Ueno City at this moment was simply too vast, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Faced with such an enemy, no one could keep calm like a normal person inside.
It was at this time that Hojo Takeshi suddenly stopped, causing Muki Yuichi, who was trailing behind, to bump into him unexpectedly.
Hojo Takeshi suddenly turned and grabbed Muki Yuichi’s collar, his face grim:
"Go now to Border City No. 3."
"If any people from other battle zones are coming, do not stop them, let them pass."
Upon hearing this, Muki Yuichi’s eyes suddenly brightened:
"Hojo Takeshi-kun, are you saying someone will come to help us?"
"That’s wonderful!"
"Who is it?"
"Is it Satan J from the United States War Zone or King Caesar from Fuguo’s War Zone, or Nate-kun from Indonesia War Zone."
But Hojo Takeshi replied with a furious shout:
"Baga~ Go quickly!"
Saying this, he roughly shoved Muki Yuichi, making him stumble and almost lose his balance.
Yet faced with the infuriated Hojo Takeshi, Muki Yuichi dared not say anything but could only crawl away towards the teleportation array.
As Hojo Takeshi ascended the city walls at the northern part of the city, he saw outside the city already crowded with countless Demon Race creatures.
Seeing the Demon Race’s menacing gestures and bared fangs and snarls, it was apparent they were preparing to strike at this Celestial River City.
At this moment, Celestial River City’s City Lord Yoshino appeared beside Hojo Takeshi.
Seeing him, Hojo Takeshi quickly bowed in respect:
"City Lord Yoshino."
Yoshino was a middle-aged man appearing around his forties, and he said to Hojo Takeshi:
"The Demon-controlling Race and the Curse Master Clan are already on their way to support."
"Chosen One, can you help us hold out until they arrive?"
Faced with Yoshino’s question, Hojo Takeshi replied without hesitation:
"Hi!"
"Rest assured, City Lord Yoshino, this victory surely belongs to us in Ueno City."
With Hojo Takeshi’s ’promise,’ Yoshino’s face finally showed a hint of a smile:
"Very well."
"Soon, Ueno City’s city guard will join you in resisting the foreign enemy and completely crush the Demon Race’s ambitions."
Hojo Takeshi asserted confidently once more:
"Hi!"
"We are committed to fulfilling the mission."
Yoshino took one last glance at Hojo Takeshi, then vanished from the city wall.
At this moment, however, Hojo Takeshi’s expression became even more solemn.
Meanwhile, the situation here quickly spread across the world via the internet.
While various battle zones were prepared to watch the spectacle, Hua Country War Zone’s White Tiger Teleportation Array Plaza gathered a team of thousands.
Among them were prominent guilds such as Shengshi Dynasty, Proud Sanctuary, Famous Clan, New Divine Hall, Qingyi Pavilion, Phantom Snow Ice City, all distinctly standing with a well-known elite team.
At a certain moment, after Luoshen Liunian exchanged a glance, Shengshi Zuigui raised his arms at the plaza and called:
"Brothers, let’s depart!"
Consequently, the entire plaza erupted with deafening cheers:
"Ho, Ho, Ho~"
Watching groups of top players from Hua Country vanish from the plaza.
At the smithy beside the square, Lin Yi glanced at the time: 7:43, just at this moment:
"I wasn’t late, right..."
Lin Yi turned around in surprise, only to see a cute winged girl standing behind him, giving Lin Yi a gentle smile:
"Feng Hua God, we meet again."
Saying that, she handed an ordinary Phoebe Staff to Lin Yi:
"There’s it, back to its original owner."
Lin Yi nostalgically picked up the staff in the girl’s hand - [Wand of the Sage Lv3 Rare], his thoughts instantly driven back to the scene when he first left the Newbie Village.
Even though looking at the equipment’s attributes now was truly unbearable.
Nonetheless, after encountering the girl before him, this equipment had evidently been endowed with a special meaning.
"I didn’t expect you to still hold onto this weapon."
Since the other party had handed it to him, Lin Yi didn’t hesitate to accept it, then said to the girl:
"Thank you for coming."
Ai Wen looked at the man standing on the altar before her, feeling unexpectedly at ease rather than nervous, saying lightly:
"I only came on account of Tian Ci’s favor."
Lin Yi chuckled warmly:
"That doesn’t matter."
Then Lin Yi headed directly towards the teleportation array:
"Let’s go."
Watching the staff seized in Lin Yi’s hand, Ai Wen’s face suddenly broke into a relaxed smile.
Seeing Lin Yi walk far away, Ai Wen quickly caught up:
"Feng Hua God, wait for me."
