In Graveyard of Bones, every player who wasn't currently trapped inside a buried tiline looked up at the lightning Starsea… and the ten faint red pillars within it.
There were plenty of players in Starsea who used golden lightning.
But sothing on this scale…
Lightchaser and Cinders both rushed toward that dazzling sea of gold from different locations, yet shared the sa thought.
This was the first ti she had ever started a full team fight.
Other players who weren't familiar with that lightning hesitated.
Starsea was starting a team fight there?
The battlefield chat gave the answer.
BS Rita: rally
BS Mistblade: rally
BS Cicada: rally
Lania Kaia Maple Syrup: rally
Tingo Autumn Deer: rally
Tingo JE: rally
Nuclear Flash NightFury: rally
With a lineup like that, if you still didn't join, could you even call yourself Starsea?
Fury Prayer, Fury Biker, Winter Sea Frenzied Shark, Black Spring Loath, Sakura Orange White all dropped what they were doing and rushed toward the starry sea.
They arrived one after another.
Each newcor saw the person before them standing there in a daze…
Then stepped forward and saw the opposing lineup.
Tingo JE was loudly explaining why there were three "Ritas" on the field.
It was basically karma from Quiet Mountain. Back then, BS Rita controlled Quiet Mountain players and used QM Rita to fight them.
Now QM Rita had created a Starsea Rita to make a "Quiet Mountain version of Starsea Rita" fight BS Rita.
On the Quiet Mountain side, there wasn't just their ten-player team…
There was also an enemy version of Starsea Rita standing with them.
And above them, one god after another was appearing.
The prize pool was still increasing.
With a lineup like that on the other side… Starsea still chose to rally?
Was this even human behavior?!
Winter Sea Frenzied Shark, who had barely held on until now, silently turned to leave.
Fury Prayer grabbed him imdiately. "What are you doing?"
Winter Sea Frenzied Shark carefully pulled his hair out of her hand. "Just passing by. Don't you know I have a huge grudge with Rita?"
Rita's hearing was sharp. She imdiately shouted, "All the more reason to stay! There are three of here. If you don't pick one to fight, I'll look down on you!"
Since Extra Chapter Rita also had a B80 on her shoulder, Rita's B80 had already returned to her.
It spat, "Pah."
Quiet Mountain Frenzied Shark, who had been staring at him: "Pah."
If that wasn't enough pressure, Mountain Isles Hearthsmoke casually lifted her sniper rifle and aid at him.
That was the final straw.
Winter Sea Frenzied Shark: ......
He stayed.
Then summoned Hatred Thorn.
Hatred Thorn, appearing and imdiately facing three Ritas and a sniper rifle: "…bro, I'm done ssing around. Let's live peacefully. Put back."
Fortunately, Starsea's gods began arriving as well.
Like the Quiet Mountain gods, they stood silently behind their players, holding the line for their world.
Both sides were gathering.
That was why no one moved yet.
They were all waiting.
BS Mistblade nudged Rita lightly with her knife handle.
When Rita looked over, confused, she asked, "Why did you only call one?"
Rita replied confidently, "I also called Deceitful Bloom."
Not far away, BS Cicada snorted. "Ridiculous."
Mistblade lowered her voice further. "Why didn't you use all three summon slots? Already used them?"
Rita whispered back, "I… only know these few."
Counting allies and enemies alike, only five. Deceitful Bloom, Foolishness, Boiling Orange, the drumr, and the Captain.
By the ti she finished rallying and tried to call for help, most options were already gone.
Foolishness was standing behind Maple Syrup, staring at her coldly.
Boiling Orange was over with NightFury.
The Captain was already on the field.
After thinking it through… the only one left was the drumr.
The Lania Kaia drumr, hovering behind her, leaned down with crossed arms and said in a strange tone, "That must've been hard for you."
Deceitful Bloom, also floating slightly above the ground, leaned in from the other side and smiled.
"Another person who wants to kill you. Not bad. Oh right, that sock you gave Foolishness… she's been wearing it for a long ti. She likes it."
Nearby, Lightchaser, Cinders, Mistblade, Maple Syrup, and Cicada all looked over in shock.
Even the Quiet Mountain gods gave Brilliance Foolishness a look of "I didn't expect this from you."
Rita: ......
Brilliance Foolishness: ......
There was no explaining this.
Rita turned hopefully toward QM Rita. Her eyes clearly said: can we just start fighting now?
QM Rita instead turned to Extra Chapter Rita.
"You people give gods their own socks?"
Extra Chapter Rita answered calmly, "Yeah. New Year gift. She insisted."
Brilliance Foolishness: …
There were twenty-seven Quiet Mountain gods present.
When Starsea's side also reached twenty-seven, several high-level gods spoke at the sa ti.
"Stop summoning gods."
Was it pride? Or so rule or taboo unknown to players?
No one knew.
But the Starsea players who arrived later stopped using their summon chances.
The lightning Starsea in the sky turned into rain, gathering as it fell before condensing into Rita's right hand as a golden sword.
Maybe it was the increasingly heavy floral scent.
Maybe the crashing waves.
Or maybe the ray of light cast by the passing ti pointer above…
But in one instant, every player and god on the battlefield moved at the sa ti, charging toward their targets.
Two wind whales returned to their true size and soared into the sky, their calls echoing together.
At that mont, all seventeen Starsea players received a notification.
You have been marked by Starsea JE. You are within Starsea JE's private Oasis.
Soul fire cap doubled. Soul fire 50. Recover 1 soul fire every 5 minutes. Each kill restores 20 soul fire instantly. When an Oasis player dies, all allies within the Oasis gain 5 soul fire.
Every Starsea player couldn't help but look up at the massive wind whale churning in the sky with burning eyes.
No wonder her combat ranking had shot into the top ten after Divine Instruction.
This… was what a top-tier support should look like.
