“Well, so much for the invitations.

“According to the notifications, we must finish the renovation of the settlement in ten days, which means that no enemies will come in ten days.

“Do you have any suggestion on how to complete all the tasks in ten days, now that the invitations have been given to us?”

After the invitations were taken care of, Ji Ye looked around and asked something else.

“The announcement of the invitations really adds to our trouble!” Mister Bug, whose eyes were covered, complained.

It truly added to their trouble.

Technically speaking, the return of the third batch of newcomers wasn’t at good timing.

Because of the advancement test, Dragon City was in dire need of hands in the following days.

The resurrection of the dead players, guidance on new heroes, settlement planning, reception of the fourth batch of players… There were too many things to do, and half of the personnel in the settlement had died!

Under such circumstances, the old players would have even more work to do with the new players logged off.

As it happened, the settlement had “invitations”, which made the whole thing even more complicated.

However, it was impossible to forbid them from logging off.

After all, they had spent a month on the Land of Inheritance, and they inevitably wanted to meet their families now that they could log off.

At this moment, many people were waiting outside of the Temple of Providence and talking excitedly.

“I can finally log off. I can’t wait to surf on the forum!”

“Let me tell you, I have a feeling that the fourth batch of players will all be ‘connected’ to the players in Dragon City.”

What they said implied why they were excited.

The names of the five thousand players in the fourth batch wouldn’t be announced until three days later.

As players of Dragon City, although they didn’t have any invitations, based on the rules in the first two batches, they thought they could increase their family members’ and friends’ odds of being selected if they got in touch with them after they logged off.

It was why Ji Ye couldn’t forbid them from logging off or even ask them to postpone it.

Also, logging on and off would cost the power of providence. Since the power of providence of a civilization wouldn’t support a settlement after it became Transcendent, the cost could be quite obvious, especially in the current phase when reviving the players, transforming the Stones of Civilization, and sustaining the villains all required power of providence!

“Perhaps it’s an unspoken test on the settlement!”

Seeing how excited the third batch of players was, Ji Ye shook his head.

“Let them spend their contribution points!

“Everybody has to pay contribution points to log off. Those who don’t have enough contribution points can pay on credit.

“This won’t happen again!

“On the other hand, whoever stays will receive three times the usual contribution points…”

Tripling the salary during vacations might not be new, but it should be effective.

Also, the names would be announced in only three days, and he was not afraid that he couldn’t pay them!

Of course, some players might choose not to go back again after paying on default to log off.

However, the odds were quite low. At this moment, players who died in other settlements were probably praying that they could be reborn in Dragon City. Nobody would abandon their membership in Dragon City unless it was too stressful for them!

“Gongjin, please help us run the settlement in the following days.”

After the meeting was over and everybody went on to do their own things, Ji Ye discussed with Zhou Yu, who had been modernized fastest, about the natives.

Apart from the players, the natives who made the greatest contributions also received invitations, which could resurrect and invite the natives!

However, the natives who were invited still needed the Souls of Civilization and the offerings to arrive.

But their arrival test would be less difficult, and they had the priority to arrive!

Unlike the players who wavered because of their interests, the natives considered the matter much more straightforwardly.

Lin Chong, for example, had arrived at Dragon City as he waited for Gao Qiu. He missed his wife and his father-in-law. If he had invitations, he could totally direct them to Dragon City to live with him.

Of course, Lin Chong couldn’t do that yet.

As one of the heroes who arrived most recently, Lin Chong hadn’t made enough contributions in the battle, so he didn’t have any invitations.

On the other hand, although Zhou Yu hadn’t been here for long, he made a lot of achievements in the conquest of the Magma Monsters and had taught the natives music in life.

More importantly, as the director of the navy, not only did he command the battle to destroy Fang La’s army, he participated in the battle to destroy Liao’s Primordial Unity Chaos Phenomena Array too.

Therefore, Zhou Yu received an invitation.

Ji Ye was rather curious about whom Zhou Yu would invite.

Would he invite Xiao Qiao, his wife who was known as one of the four most beautiful women in Three Kingdoms?

However, it was more likely that Zhou Yu would prefer to invite his parents. After all, filial piety was very important for the ancient people.

Honestly speaking, Ji Ye hoped that Zhou Yu would invite Xiao Qiao.

After all, although Zhou Yi, Zhou Yu’s father, was a character in history books too, he was too unknown. He couldn’t be stronger than an Extraordinary Common hero even though he was a real person in history.

While Xiao Qiao was just a weak woman in most people’s eyes, she was much more famous than Mi Zhu and Ruan Xiaoer were. She frequently appeared in a lot of books and games too.

Even though she might be an ordinary person at first, she would have as much potential as Nie Xiaoqian!

Wu Song did the right thing in that regard.

He used his invitation on his only brother without much hesitation.

After the first round of summoning in the morning, “Dalang’s Baked Roll” became an option in the cafeteria in Dragon City.

Ruan Xiaoer also chose to revive his brother Ruan Xiaowu who unluckily died in the final battle against Liao.

Because Ruan Xiaowu hadn’t been here for long, he hadn’t made enough contribution to revive himself. (The stronger a person was, the more contribution it would require to revive them).

Lu Zhishen, who had three invitations, gave two of them to two Extraordinary bodyguards who had been protecting him but didn’t make enough contributions to be resurrected.

He saved the last invitation for his master, Elder Zhizhen who was known as a living Buddha in Water Margin.

However, Elder Zhizhen was a Transcendent hero who couldn’t arrive yet.

Zhao Yun also gave his invitation to a Transcendent hero from the Three Kingdoms. However, he didn’t give it to Guan Yu, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, or Liu Bei. It was not even given to his sons Zhao Tong and Zhao Guang.

Instead, he gave it to Gongsun Zan.

Zhao Yun had arrived as a young man, and in his memories, he was still working for Gongsun Zan as one of the White Horse Warriors.

Zhao Yun felt that he sort of “betrayed” Gongsun Zan by arriving at the Twin Dragon Island, so he gave the invitation to him.

After all, even though Gongsun Zan was famous and remarkable in history, he wasn’t very popular, and he might not be able to win the competition against other heroes at his level.

Li Yuanba gave his invitation to Qin Qiong, who was much more famous than Gongsun Zan.

A feature of the special invitation was that it could cross settings. It meant that if Qin Qiong accepted the invitation, he could also arrive at the Twin Dragon Island!
