"This Pilgrimage Mountain is quite mysterious!"
In front of the villa, the mbers of the Creation rcenary Corps gathered together, and the ridiculously handso Guo Shaojie said:
"It's said that those who have been inside eventually get sent out, and there's only a place called the [Thunder Attraction Platform] that you can go to."
"I have no idea what the [Thunder Attraction Platform] is for, there's no information about it from the officials."
Guo Shaojie looked around at the others, suddenly putting on a mysterious air as he said:
"This morning, while I was researching in the Library Pavilion of White Tiger City, guess what I saw?"
Lin Yi was caught off guard by the question:
"What?"
Everyone leaned in, stretching their necks out to look at Guo Shaojie, impatience apparent in their voices:
"Just spit it out."
In this group, besides Lin Yi and Dongfang Jing, probably only Guo Shaojie knew the most about the ga.
However, Guo Shaojie's so-called 'knowledge' was always based on evidence.
In simple terms, it's all information Guo Shaojie had dug up himself.
Unlike Lin Yi or Dongfang Jing, who frequently ntioned things that had no docuntation or records, sounding quite mysterious.
Heaven-Gifted Ouyang Hao directly said to Guo Shaojie:
"Stop keeping us in suspense, aren't you too old for this?"
Guo Shaojie cleared his throat and slowly said:
"There's a journal, I don't know who wrote it, which records that the mysterious [Celestial Saint Peak] hides the true core secrets of this continent."
"Like the so-called Four Great Divine Beasts or ancient gods we often talk about."
"They're not just myths; in this world, they truly exist."
"They might be hidden on the Celestial Saint Peak."
Yet, everyone was left dumbfounded after hearing this:
"That's it?"
Xiao He and Shen Yanhua were puzzled:
"Is that... really that surprising?"
"What?"
Guo Shaojie was confused by the lack of excitent from the others, expressing surprise:
"Isn't this news exhilarating enough?"
"Pfft~ I thought it was sothing big."
Ouyang Hao laughed helplessly:
"Damn, I thought it was sothing huge, wasted my expressions."
Zhan Tianpeng summarized from the side:
"Without witnessing such events personally, you can't take them too seriously."
Even Wang Sijie chid in:
"I saw online soone said,
"Whoever tries climbing the Celestial Saint Peak ends up coming back down without climbing even ten ters."
"What you ntioned seems too distant for us, doesn't it?"
Seeing everyone's reaction, Guo Shaojie was at a loss for words:
"Alright then, pretend I didn't say anything."
He quickly shifted the topic towards Lin Yi, asking:
"So, boss Lin, which peak are we going to for the mission this ti?"
"Is it going to be the enigmatic [Celestial Saint Peak]?"
Only then did everyone realize why Lin Yi had called them together.
Ouyang Hao chid in:
"Right!"
"Boss Lin, how much do you know about the Pilgrimage Peak, tell us a bit."
"Is the Pilgrimage Peak really as mystical as the internet says?"
At this point, Lin Yi snapped out of Guo Shaojie's tale, hesitated, and said:
"To be honest, my understanding of the Pilgrimage Peak isn't much greater than yours."
"And this ti, we have missions at three different locations."
"As to which peaks they're on, we won't know until we get there."
Lin Yi then explained why he'd gathered everyone:
"Now that Dongfang Jing has reached the Fifth Transformation, I decided we'll all take half a day off this afternoon to do whatever you want."
"Tomorrow, we'll set off for the Pilgrimage Peak at eight in the morning."
Lin Yi's sudden decision caught everyone by surprise.
All along, Lin Yi had been eager for everyone to reach level 50 quickly, so they could head to the Pilgrimage Peak together!
When Dongfang Jing completed the Fifth Transformation this morning, everyone thought they'd leave for the Pilgrimage Peak after lunch today.
Unexpectedly, they got news of a break instead.
Although Lin Yi didn't say it outright, everyone knew he had sothing particularly important on the Pilgrimage Mountain.
Upon hearing the decision, Ouyang Hao's first reaction was:
"No rest needed, rest for what? We can go now!"
"No need to waste half a day."
Ouyang Hao's words quickly elicited a response, and Guo Shaojie added:
"I also think there's no need to rest."
"Everyone's eager to experience the magic of the Pilgrimage Peak."
Even Shengshi toasted with agreent:
"No problem, let's get to the mission directly in the afternoon."
Seeing everyone's reaction, Lin Yi smiled warmly, yet held his ground and said:
"This past week, you've been grinding day and night non-stop; I'm not a capitalist looking to exploit your labor."
When he saw Guo Shaojie wanting to say more, Lin Yi suddenly turned assertive:
"If I say take half a day off, you take half a day off, quit with the nonsense."
"Why aren't you pleased when given leisure ti?"
The comnt left everyone looking at each other speechlessly.
Seeing the puzzled faces around, Lin Yi clapped his hands:
"Disperse, disperse, do what you need to do, gather here first thing in the morning."
Still, Guo Shaojie couldn't help but approach and ask:
"Really taking a break?"
Lin Yi pointed at Guo Shaojie with annoyance:
"Unless you want to stay behind and help level up."
Seeing Lin Yi's serious look, Guo Shaojie quickly laughed awkwardly and waved:
"I was just casually asking, haha~"
At that mont, Ouyang Hao dragged Guo Shaojie:
"Let's go, let's go, stop the chatter."
"Honestly, grinding beasts this week is about to make sick; let's find a nice place to relax."
Seeing Lin Yi's stance, everyone else also dispersed.
While Wang Sijie quickly caught up with the pair, arms over their shoulders:
"Where to? Take with you."
Ouyang Hao welcomingly embraced Wang Sijie, chuckling:
"Let's go."
Lin Yi watched their slightly mischief-oriented departure, instinctively reminding:
"Wang Sijie is still young, mind your limits."
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Hao turned with a roll of his eyes and replied:
"We're going to a reputable massage parlor, don't let your mind wander."
Lin Yi nonchalantly shrugged:
"I sure hope so."
As for the others, upon hearing of the free afternoon, they didn't return to their rooms to ga as usual, but instead, sat on the living room couch, snacking on fruit and watching TV.
Probably, for them, this was the best way to relax.
Zhan Tianpeng saw Lin Yi at the door, made space, and said:
"Boss Lin, want to sit down and join us?"
"This 'National Glory Showdown' is pretty entertaining lately."
Lin Yi quickly shook his head:
"No, go ahead and watch."
"I've got a task to finish up, I'll take the chance to get it done."
Zhang Xinying, hearing Lin Yi's words, asked curiously:
"Need help?"
Lin Yi shook his head in response:
"No, I can handle it alone."
Finally, Lin Yi glanced at Jade Qilin, who was leisurely enjoying dessert with Isabella, and smiled:
"Ian, you can stay here and have fun, no need to co back with ."
Jade Qilin imdiately stood up, looking at Lin Yi:
"You don't need to co?"
He shook his head:
"No, you're off for half the day too."
Hearing Lin Yi's decision, Jade Qilin happily jumped up:
"Great!"
Just then, Dongfang Jing approached Lin Yi and said:
"Co over here for a bit."
