Mid-Battle Break

As Gu Xi left the Blacksmith Shop, he was still happily touching the Cold Wind Staff when Du Wushuang, who had been following Gu Xi, leaned over.

"Comrade, what are your plans for the future?"

"No, I came from the transport unit. I had already completed my mission by getting here. I only got involved in the previous garrison because I happened to be there temporarily. As for where I'm going next, I really don't have any plans."

However, I should look around here to see if there are any tasks I can take on next, since even if I go out now, I'll definitely be assigned back in the end.

Gu Xi was well aware of the situation at hand.

The foreign invasion is not over yet.

If you quit the game at this point, you might be assigned other tasks.

That would have required running back and forth, and the rewards wouldn't have been as plentiful as they are now.

Rather than doing that, it's better to just stay here in the Loose Immortal Garden and wait for this invasion to end.

In the battle just now, Gu Xi clearly felt that the enemy's strength was getting weaker and weaker.

At first, Gu Xi fought level 9 Otherworldy Ghost Leader, who were accompanied by level 10 or 11 soldiers.

When they reached this plain, the Otherworldy Ghost Leader was only level 9, and the Vajra Warrior accompanying him were gone.

Later, during this siege battle, Gu Xi even encountered a level 8 Otherworldy Ghost Leader among the Otherworldy Ghost Leader he fought.

This indicates that the enemy's strength is weakening.

If this happens a few more times, the foreign invasion will be almost over. If we don't take this opportunity to strike the enemy harder, when will we ever get another chance?

Upon hearing Gu Xi say that he would stay for a few more days, Du Wushuang's eyes immediately lit up with excitement.

"You've just arrived at Loose Immortal Garden don't have a place to stay yet, right? The taverns here aren't very comfortable. I'm only helping you out because we're comrades-in-arms. Come stay at my place for a few days."

I won't charge you for accommodation, and you shouldn't charge me any other fees either.

"What other fees could I possibly ask for?"

Gu Xi asked, looking puzzled, but before he could get a clear answer, Du Wushuang dragged Gu Xi off in one direction.

It was only then that Gu Xi realized that despite Du Wushuang's small stature, she was incredibly strong.

With Gu Xi's strength, he was no match for Du Wushuang and was simply dragged away by her.

Gu Xi tried to struggle a bit, but Du Wushuang simply hoisted Gu Xi onto her shoulder and ran towards her home.

Du Wushuang was quite familiar with the paths of the Loose Immortal Garden.

It only took her seven or eight minutes to get to the house she rented in Loose Immortal Garden.

The city on the surface of the Loose Immortal Garden is actually quite crowded, and Du Wushuang's strength is not the strongest in the Loose Immortal Garden.

Her room was only about 20 square meters. Apart from a bed, there was only a sofa and a dining table. The rest of the room was occupied by Du Wushuang's weapons, equipment and armor.

The room in front of us is worlds apart from the guild's apartment building.

However, considering the situation in the Loose Immortal Garden, most people who don't live in the Lower District live in small rooms like this. For players who come here to stay, having a place to live is enough.

Anyway, they usually go out of the city to complete missions, so they don't actually spend much time living here.

Du Wushuang did the same, opening the door with practiced ease, and first placed Gu Xi on the sofa.

Then he said to Gu Xi:

"Please sit down first, I'll go get you some drinks."

After saying that, Du Wushuang pushed aside a pile of armor beside the bed, took out a wooden box from under the Grade A-, and as soon as the box was opened, a cold air rushed out. When the cold air dissipated, you could see that there were many wooden wine barrels of various sizes inside the box.

At this moment, Gu Xi looked around at everything.

He noticed that there were small pieces of pink strawberry-shaped fabric lying carelessly on the sofa.

With just one glance, Gu Xi's eyes turned red.

What's going on here? Did I see something I shouldn't have? Should I leave now?

Everyone invited me to come and sit for a while, so it might not be appropriate to leave now.

Maybe if you sit down for a while longer, you'll be fine.

Gu Xi lowered her head, trying hard not to look around.

At the very least, one shouldn't be rushing around the room looking for something.

Just then Du Wushuang walked over, carrying two two-liter wooden buckets.

"Try this, it's a specialty of Loose Immortal Garden, Crystal Wine."

"Ah!"

Before Gu Xi could understand what was happening, a large bucket of liquor was shoved into his hands.

"If you're a man, have a drink."

Du Wushuang acted quite assertively at this moment. Before Gu Xi see what was in the wooden bucket, she directly clinked the bucket in her hand with his.

"I'll do it, you can do whatever you want."

This immediately ignited Gu Xi's anger.

"What do you mean, 'You do it, I'm fine with it'? I'm a grown man, why would I give in to you?"

Gu Xi muttered this sentence and opened his mouth to gulp down the wine.

This Crystal Wine contains a large number of tiny Soul Crystal fragments. When you drink it, the taste of the wine is not too strong, but the feeling of the Soul Crystal sliding down your throat is quite unique.

Most importantly, this Soul Crystal carries some kind of Mana.

When you drink it, it produces a burning sensation.

After just one sip, Gu Xi felt like his whole body was burning up, and he wished he could take off all his clothes.

But Gu Xi was reasonable enough to know that now was not the time. He blushed and restrained himself from making any moves, trying not to appear too pathetic.

Before Gu Xi could even calm down, Du Wushuang started pestering him.

She grabbed Gu Xi by the collar, lifted her right leg, and pressed it against Gu Xi, staring into his eyes.

Am I pretty?

Gu Xi glanced at Du Wushuang and found that Du Wushuang was actually quite good-looking.

However, Gu Xi was quite tall, and he had been sitting on the Evil Coffin, so he usually only saw the top of Du Wushuang's head and had never really seen what Du Wushuang looked like.

Now, with Du Wushuang staring right in his face, Gu Xi was somewhat surprised to find that Du Wushuang was still quite cute.

There was even a hint of evasion in her eyes.

"Beautiful, really beautiful, just the kind of round face I like."

"If you like it, that's fine. You just drank Crystal Wine, so just close your eyes and don't resist."

"No, what do you mean? What do you mean by 'just don't resist'?"

Before Gu Xi could understand what those words meant, Du Wushuang grabbed him and threw him onto the bed.

When he was thrown down, some small pieces of cloth rolled up on Du Wushuang's bed were shaken up, and even a small black piece of cloth drifted down onto Gu Xi's face.

Gu Xi was about to remove the piece of cloth when Du Wushuang pressed his hand down, and then the room lights were turned off. In the darkness, Gu Xi couldn't help but say, "Something fell on my face, it was still warm, you..."

"Don't worry about that, close your eyes, I'll take care of everything."

"Do you even know how to do it?!"
