The next day, before dawn, every Wild Bazaar branch across the entire West Sea received a gift from Seven Cities.
A small box the size of a beer mug, containing a hefty transparent brick-shaped object.
Square and neat, with sharply defined edges.
It also gave off the pungent smell of chemical raw materials.
It looked like a small crystal resin display ornament... Mix two different industrial glues together and expose them to ultraviolet light, and they would quickly harden, preserving meaningful little keepsakes. It was not difficult—simple, easy, and fun.
It was just that the things sealed inside were rather rare.
Some contained one finger, some two fingers, some an ear, some a shinbone, and others a carefully prepared human heart or lung lobe...
In short, they were absolutely marvelous!
A small gift, a token of our regard. Our boss personally made these for everyone, so please don't stand on ceremony. Refusing them would mean disrespecting Chairman Ling.
Besides, these things had so much commemorative value, didn't they?
According to Chairman Ling himself, if you could collect all these gifts and complete the full set of character fragments, you could piece together a hidden character specially made for everyone by Seven Cities Wild Bazaar!
As for who it was, we'll keep that a secret for now. Please don't let your imaginations run wild.
Of course, the model was yours to assemble however you liked. What exactly you managed to put together would depend on everyone making full use of their own creativity and ideas!
And so, beneath these thoughtful gifts brimming with love and care, the strife in the West Sea came to an abrupt halt. Countless brutal battles seemed to have reached their conclusion.
They had no choice but to stop, okay?!
Ling Liu had fucking become a premium
