Su Xi canceled her avatar and went to the Hall of Service to complete the mission.
As for Yūko Helsatez's abilities, we'll try them out later. With this mana recovery speed, I don't know when I'll be able to accumulate enough mana to activate her skills.
After submitting the task, Su Xi successfully leveled up to level 36.
Currently, only the top-ranked player is level 37, while the rest are level 36.
Su Xi has finally caught up with the leading group of level-up trainees.
Just as Su Xi was about to do one more task and then log off to eat.
"Your Highness, a message has come from the Forest City, saying that there is something you need." An elven maid rushed in.
What I need?
Su Xi opened the letter, which read that the Forest City Mining Association had recently unearthed a considerable amount of epic-level ore. If adventurer Su needed it, she should go and purchase it as soon as possible. The letter was signed: Forest City Adventurer's Guild.
"The fact that this letter was delivered to me is quite impressive... The Adventurer's Guild is really powerful..."
Su Xi looked at the date on the letter, which showed it was from one day ago.
The elven maid said very respectfully, "Your Highness, our royal city also has Adventurer's Guild. We exchange information when there are missions, so letters can arrive normally."
"The Adventurer's Guild, so that means the person who delivered the letter is also an adventurer?"
"Yes, they took a ship from Forest City to Falas Port, and then used the teleportation array at Falas Port to come to the Royal City."
"I do need these Epic Ore. I'm going to Forest City," Su Xi said to the maid, meaning, "Please pass on this message to Nicola and Bai Ya so they know I've left."
"Okay, do you need me to arrange any attendants?"
"No."
"Um, Your Highness, the messenger said he's your friend. Should we send him away?"
"What's your name?"
"... Mop God of War"
"I'll go see them myself." Su Xi then waved her hand, dismissing the maid.
The elven maid bowed slightly and left.
Su Xi arrived alone at the Adventurer's Guild in Bannory, the city beneath the Holy Tree.
Compared to the open and bustling guild environment of Forest City, it is much quieter here. Even the elves who accept quests speak softly and are very respectful.
Tsk tsk, I've seen how difficult and mean elves can be in my past life, it's really hard to imagine that they could also have such a gentle and polite face. It's a pity that this gentleness is only shown to their own people.
The Mop God of War and his group sat awkwardly in a corner of the lounge.
Su Xi slowly walked over and twitched her pointed ears.
You could hear their chatter from a distance.
"The elves are all so beautiful..." One of the chubby boys kept squinting at the elves passing by.
Mop God of War secretly slapped his thigh, his eyes full of warning, and said, "I'm telling you, don't flirt with the NPCs again and draw our hatred, or we'll get kicked out again!"
"Relax, relax, how could I dare? This is, after all, the Elf Empress's feet," the chubby boy said nonchalantly.
He continued to spy on the elven maid with what he thought was a well-concealed, lecherous gaze.
"Disgusting humans."
"Rude humans."
"He's as fat as a pig, and he still dares to look at us like that. I really want to gouge out his eyes and use them as fertilizer."
"Damn it! If this person weren't Her Highness's friend, how could we allow him into such a noble place!"
As she walked over, Su Xi faintly heard the elves whispering among themselves.
Su Xi: "..."
Actually, Su Xi thought the little fat boy's behavior was quite normal.
Since this is a game, and games are all about having fun, the chubby boy genuinely felt that these elves were just a bunch of NPCs, so what was wrong with taking a few glances at them?
If he had realized that this was more than just a game, he probably wouldn't have acted so recklessly.
"Hey, hey, a very pretty elf loli is walking towards us! Wow, kawaii..." The chubby boy excitedly suppressed his voice, his squinted eyes widening slightly, as if he was trying his best to imprint Su Xi's face into his mind.
The Mop God of War kicked him hard, then quickly stepped forward, grabbed Su Xi's small hand, and said, "Boss, you're here!"
Su Xi wasn't quite used to the Mop God of War's enthusiasm, so she pulled her hand away and said, "You're waiting for me here because you want to go back to Forest City with me, right?"
"Of course, of course, my brother also wants to meet you." Mop God of War said very enthusiastically, and tried to put his arm around Su Xi's arm.
Su Xi fell silent.
How come this person has suddenly become like a piece of chewing gum?
Why does your brother want to see me?
"Well, I just wanted to ask you some questions about the game, right? And he wants to increase his investment in the game and wants to hire you as a consultant."
"Hire me?"
Su Xi was a little surprised.
How did the brain circuit of this Mop God of War's brother come about?
Why would he think I would help him?
"Yeah, my brother said he'd give me money~ Lots and lots of money! He even said the initial plan is to invest a billion!"
Giving money is indeed a good reason, after all, money is omnipotent most of the time, but...
Su Xi frowned and let the Mop God of War take her arm as they walked.
The elves standing nearby were filled with hatred, their eyes turning red. They hadn't even touched Her Highness the Saintess's body, how dare these humans!
Damn it, I really want to kill these humans!
Teleport from the Royal City's teleportation array to Falas Port, and then return to Forest City by ship.
However, even after boarding the ship, Su Xi still couldn't understand what this "Cleaver God of War" was thinking.
Let's set aside the possibility of this game becoming a reality.
The [Meta World] is not yet open in China, and major media outlets remain tight-lipped about the game. How could the Cleaver God of War dare to increase its investment, even to the point of a billion?
Isn't he afraid that if China remains closed off, he'll end up losing everything?
Or did he sense something...?
Speaking of which, around this time in my previous life, it seems that some employees of top game companies in China noticed something was wrong with the game.
For example, if someone masters weapon skills in a game, and uses these action skills for a long time, the actions of releasing the skills will be deeply ingrained in their mind. In reality, it is very likely that they will be able to perform the complete actions.
Their physical abilities haven't been improved by the game, but their mental abilities have been improved to some extent, and these game industry professionals are more sensitive to this aspect.
They might wonder why their real body would perform actions from the game when they haven't learned them and the game's skills and actions are guided by the system.
Once they have doubts, they will try it out. Some skills and movements are quite difficult. If they can be used in real life, they will be more certain.
The influence of the Meta World on the spiritual entity can be reflected in reality.
Therefore, many game industry professionals understand what a game that can change real-world physical habits represents.
Recalling that the Cleaver God of War of War" from her previous life never appeared again, Su Xi asked in a strange tone, "Your family doesn't own a game company, do you?"
