After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 686 - 484, Lin Da’s strength enabled Snow Goose Ice Flower to advance to Sunrise Level 2.
Chapter 686: 484, Lin Da’s strength enabled Snow Goose Ice Flower to advance to Sunrise Level 2.
“All right, eat whatever you want after we get to Cyan City,” Lin Da said exasperatedly.
Arriving at the villa, he glanced sidelong and noticed an envelope slipped inside the red mailbox.
Had Taige and Mingli visited?
Lin Da raised an eyebrow, figuring if they’d come out of the 20th floor of the Great Mystery Continent, they could have made it here today.
Opening the envelope, inside was crooked, elementary-school-like handwriting.
[Where did you guys go? Why aren’t you here? Tomorrow afternoon, Snow Goose and Ice Flower’s promotion party, come and see for yourself!]
Just the kind of dumb tone Taige would use.
But that tiger wouldn’t dare boss him around.
“Looks like it’s Lia and her team, promoted to Sunrise Level.”
Lin Da smiled.
Everyone had put in a lot of sweat for today.
Now that their initial goal on the adventure had been achieved, it indeed deserved a grand celebration.
The next afternoon, Lin Da and his team members arrived as promised.
The venue was Snow Goose’s villa.
The front of the house was crowded with people and lined with carriages.
The promotion party, jointly hosted by Snow Goose and Ice Flower, was considered a major event in White Dove City, and everyone who received an invitation put aside all other engagements to attend.
The banquet tables stretched from the living room to the outdoors, with dozens of tables all fully occupied and a constant buzz of voices, creating an exceptionally lively atmosphere.
A luxurious carriage drawn by a Blackflame Horse stopped in front of Snow Goose Villa.
The blue flower pattern on the flag immediately caught everyone’s attention in the courtyard.
It was the famed Phoenix Tail Flower Team from White Dove City, at the height of their strength and renown.
As the carriage curtain was lifted, one by one, adventurers with exceptional aura stepped out.
Lin Da, dressed in a loose-fitting white casual outfit, stood with a straight back and short hair that made him look spirited and in good form.
Following him were his beautifully dressed teammates, in light fluttering skirts and stockings in black and white, every kind available.
A gust of wind blew, sending the girls’ multicolored long hair flying, and a wave of scented air swept through the area.
Immediately, the sound of people swallowing their saliva could be heard non-stop.
Though no one had eaten lemons, their mouths were puckering up with sourness.
“Gosh… so many beautiful girls, I’m so envious of the captain of Phoenix Tail Flower; I can’t even imagine how happy his life must be.”
“What’s there not to imagine? I sure can!”
“How do I feel like he’s gotten much stronger than a few days ago?”
“Phoenix Tail Flower seems quite spirited, huh? Didn’t the newspapers say they were decimated at level 20?”
“Captain Lin Da, I am the owner of Melon Seeds Commerce, and I want to discuss endorsing a second-hand carriage with you.”
In the courtyard, some came up to greet Lin Da and sought business cooperation. Others whispered and shook their heads in dismay.
Very few knew that after their setback, Phoenix Tail Flower entered level 20 again the next day.
Towards those who greeted him enthusiastically, Lin Da courteously smiled and nodded. As for those like the owner of Melon Seeds Commerce who were inappropriately obsessed with money, Tasya coldly pushed them away.
All the way into the hall, the place was mainly filled with rock-level team captains and officials from White Dove City.
There were Valiant Team’s Captain Robert, Minnie who defeated the evil dragon, Phoenix Tail Flower Fan Club’s vice captain Finch, and both Abner and Gale were also present.
Yet there was Abner with his eyes closed, motionless like a stone statue, becoming even more silent than before.
Having learned that Rand’s funeral was held the day before yesterday, Lin Da sighed softly, stepped forward, and patted Abner on the shoulder: “Condolences.”
“It’s okay, I’m much better now. The Black Crow, the root cause of the trouble, has been dealt with by you, and the rest of the Giant Shark Adventure Group died at the hands of a mysterious Light Rank,” Abner said.
“To that Light Rank, it might have been an unintentional act, but in my eyes, he is a benefactor of White Dove. With the Giant Shark completely gone, I can finally focus on cultivating and adventuring without hatred clouding my mind,” Abner added.
“Yes, we indeed need to thank that Light Rank,” Lin Da nodded in agreement.
“By the way…” Abner changed the subject: “The entry assessment for Ice Abyss is in Dafei City, and it’s happening this month.”
Lin Da feigned ignorance: “So soon?”
“More than 30 teams participating, but only ten spots available. Just from White Dove City, four adventure teams have registered,” Abner took a deep breath and said, “No matter what, White Dove Adventure Group has to pass the assessment.”
New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.
Lin Da said solemnly, “The Phoenix Tail Flower Team as well.”
Abner laughed, “When you encounter them during the assessments, don’t go easy on them.”
Those listening to their conversation couldn’t help but show longing expressions.
The Ice Abyss Training Camp was a sacred place in Cangqing Province, something ordinary people could never touch in their lifetimes.
This year, four Sunrise Level teams had registered from White Dove City.
When Abner mentioned that more than 30 teams had signed up, everyone was a bit worried.
If all were to be annihilated, it would be a huge embarrassment.
“Captain Lin Da, do not be disheartened by the criticism from those unscrupulous news outlets!” Finch said excitedly, “As the vice captain of the Support Group, I will support you no matter what!”
Robert and Minnie nodded seriously and said together, “We will also steadfastly support the Phoenix Tail Flower Team.”
Lin Da said, “Thank you, everyone. We won’t let a setback like the 20th level get to us. The Ice Abyss’s assessment will surely be passed by the Phoenix Tail Flower Team.”
With this vow, the atmosphere in the living room instantly became fervent.
“By the way, Lin Da, what’s with your aura?” Abner, having observed him for quite a while and after much hesitation, couldn’t help but speak up.
Although unable to perceive Lin Da’s exact rank, Abner noticed that compared to a few days ago, Lin Da’s aura had distinctly deepened.
If before Abner had entertained the thought of sparring with Lin Da, now it had turned into “seeking advice.”
Lin Da gave a mysterious smile and said, “Sorry, I have to keep that a secret for now.”
Abner hummed in response and didn’t continue to inquire, but he couldn’t hide the surprise in his eyes.
Could it be…
No, it couldn’t be.
No matter how strong Lin Da had become, he was still within the Moon Rank, and it couldn’t be related to the mystic Light Rank.
Abner chuckled and shook his head, feeling he was perhaps thinking too much.
“Why have you come at this time, it’s too late!”
Suddenly, a forceful and fiery female voice called out.
Lin Da looked up and saw on the second-floor staircase a girl in a fiery red dress, ordinary chested.
Her red hair casually cascaded down her back, her face lightly made-up, hips akimbo, she faced him with a spirited expression, her chin pointing at him.
The sound of footsteps coming downstairs emanated, but it was a girl in a blue dress.
Her silver hair was tied back in a ponytail, a delicate crystal necklace hung around her neck, her hands in pristine white gloves, and her stunningly beautiful face as comforting as the warm sun on a winter day. With a beauty cold as ice yet approachable, she was the type that seemed easy to get along with.
One fiery as flame, the other like the sun in winter, both were a pleasant sight.
Seeing Lin Da staring blankly at her, the silver-haired girl couldn’t help but smile and waved, saying, “Long time no see.”
“Lia, Isa.”
Lin Da smiled knowingly and called out the names of the two girls.
“I was so concerned about today’s party, I couldn’t sleep last night,” he joked.
As today’s guests of honor, the Phoenix Tail Flower Team was seated at the center table in the living room, with Lia and Isa also sitting at this table. Other tables were accompanied by Aiko and Oru.
After greeting the old teammates, Lin Da then earnestly congratulated, “Congratulations to you for advancing to the Sunrise Level!”
“Cheers!”
Lia lifted her glass of wheat beer, joyfully declaring.
Accompanied by the two girls, Lin Da also drank quite a bit, glass after glass, his face becoming flushed.
“Is the Great Mystery Continent’s 20th level that dangerous?”
On mentioning Lin Da’s experiences, Lia said unconvinced, “It must be because this miss wasn’t there. Otherwise, I’d beat up the Demons.”
“But you can’t even beat me,” Lin Da shook his head.
“That’s because this miss can’t bring herself to go all out against companions. It’s different with Demons. Be it level 42 or 43, this miss can win. I have the Legendary Equipment ‘Heart of Flames’!”
Lia showed off the ruby necklace hanging around her neck.
“Level 42, 43? Is that all you think the Great Mystery Continent is?” Lin Da’s expression turned serious, and he spoke sternly.
Isa, Fannis, and Klyne, who were present, all showed curious expressions.
They had only heard rumors about the 20th level of the Great Mystery Continent, and with Lin Da who had personally experienced it right beside them, they naturally wanted to learn more for future ventures.
