As they entered the woods, Yun Xi noticed more passersby. She even saw several familiar figures in "Coarse Cloth Robes," fellow natives from Blue Star.

However, Yun Xi was now wearing a Sorcerer's robe, so no one recognized her.

The land where Yun Xi was born in her previous life was completely wild. The buildings within the cities were very crude, with stone and wooden structures mixed together, a chaotic yet faintly ordered appearance.

In contrast, the force that Qinglan Town belonged to was a civilization with true cultural depth.

Its city walls were made of black bricks, about ten meters high, and upon closer inspection, a faint sheen could be seen on them.

The main gate was made of metal, inscribed with many intricate patterns, likely an Alchemical Product.

So extravagant.

Through the metal bars of the gate, Yun Xi could see the buildings inside, which were also very distinctive.

Behind the gate was a large plaza, with a magnificent white goddess statue standing in the center, incredibly clean and tidy.

The surrounding buildings were also constructed from black brick and stone, with a style similar to Western European architecture on Blue Star, complemented by black flowing light, making it very beautiful.

From this, it could be seen that Qinglan Town's financial situation was likely quite good.

As she queued to enter Qinglan Town, Yun Xi clearly felt that after her Identity Badge was handled by the staff, she herself was scanned by an Appraisal Skill.

This was a necessary measure to prevent strange entities from entering.

The Sorcerers guarding the gates of ordinary towns usually only possessed Basic Appraisal; no one would waste a master appraiser on such a post.

Although Basic Appraisal could only check basic information like level and race, Yun Xi realized the seriousness of the problem.

Today, Basic Appraisal checked her, but what if a master appraiser, bored, decided to check her in the future?

Her extremely high attributes were completely unreasonable. Unless she came from a prominent family and was nourished by various legendary potions since childhood, it would be impossible for her to possess such terrifying attributes.

And her identity was obvious: an outsider adventurer with no backing.

Yun Xi couldn't imagine what she would encounter if she were passively exposed.

For a moment, Yun Xi re-evaluated her previous Sorcery learning plan. She had to add a protective Sorcery of the 'Anti-Appraisal' type.

No, even if she learned related Sorcery, she still couldn't use a 'low-level' 'Anti-Appraisal' to resist someone else's 'high-level' Appraisal.

It seemed that while learning 'Anti-Appraisal,' she would have to find a way to obtain a high-level anti-appraisal equipment or alchemical product as a double safeguard.

Yun Xi's thoughts churned, and she looked up to see the Village Chief and Hada waiting for her ahead.

"Yun Xi, we can only escort you this far. Although I haven't been to Qinglan Town many times, I know some places aren't suitable for young girls. Make sure you don't rent particularly cheap housing; it's not safe."

"Although there's a Patrol Team in town, some places they just can't reach."

"Okay, thank you, Village Chief." Yun Xi thanked him politely.

After bidding farewell to Yun Xi, the Village Chief and Hada turned to leave. They were in Qinglan Town to trade supplies and preferred to finish quickly and return, as every day spent in Qinglan Town incurred considerable accommodation fees.

As she watched the two figures depart, Yun Xi also heard a system prompt.

[Ding, Main Quest Three Activated: Break through to Intermediate Sorcerer. Quest Completion Reward: One White Crystal, one Intermediate Resurrection Talisman. Quest Failure Penalty: None.]

Main Quest Three was activated upon arriving at the town. Breaking through to Intermediate Sorcerer meant leveling up to LV11.

Unexpectedly, the system was so generous, not only giving a White Crystal but also an Intermediate Resurrection Talisman as a reward.

[Intermediate Resurrection Talisman: Can revive players below LV20. Each player can only use it once in their lifetime. Side Effect: Weakens Spirit Attribute to a certain extent.]

This time, there wasn't even a time limit; as long as she systematically became an Intermediate Sorcerer, she would receive a free chance at resurrection.

It had to be said, the system's investment in players was indeed very large.

However, Yun Xi was only level 5 now, and it would likely take a long time to reach level 11.

Yun Xi didn't plan to go out anytime soon. After settling down in Qinglan Town, she would focus on secluded study of Sorcery, ideally learning all the Sorceries she had planned.

She would also visit the local mall more often to see if there were any high-level items related to 'Anti-Appraisal.'

Thinking this, Yun Xi didn't rush to wander around Qinglan Town. She first walked to the side of the road and opened the system to check.

[Local Mall]

[First-Grade Tailor Shop]

[Xiao Er's Food Shop]

[Three Six Nine General Store]

[Protect Your Equipment House]

[Qinglan Town Official Real Estate Center]

[Qinglan Town Official Rare Materials Shop]

[Useful Bookstore]

On the Godfall Continent, merchants who wish to conduct legal bulk transactions must register within the System, which takes a commission from every transaction.

This rule applies to all merchants, whether they are small stall vendors or those with physical shops.

If you choose not to follow the rules, the System will conduct an inspection if you are reported.

If the host is indeed found to be engaging in "tax-evading" bulk transactions, not only will their assets be deducted by a hundred times the original commission, but fines will also be imposed depending on the severity of the offense, making it a completely losing proposition.

Undoubtedly, the System is an unrepentant little money-grubber.

Fortunately, one-off private transactions are not detected by the System, otherwise, everyone would have revolted long ago.

Blue Star has not yet been detected because the System has not fully infiltrated it. In the future, even "internal trades" organized offline by the Hua Nation's government will require registration as merchants within the System and will be subject to the System's commission.

The fastest way to understand a town is to check the local mall registered in the System.

It records the addresses of all local shops, their main products, and even the owner's ID, allowing you to add them as friends and consult them about goods.

Qinglan Town has hundreds of local shops, large and small, indicating that its economy is very active.

What Yun Xi needed most at this moment was a safe place to stay, so she directly clicked on the Qinglan Town Official Real Estate Agency.

[Qinglan Town Official Real Estate Center: Responsible for property sales and rentals in Qinglan Town.

Address: No. 45 Central Street, Qinglan Town.

Contact ID: ******752464]

Yun Xi looked up at the directional signs. Central Street was the road connecting to the Goddess Statue Plaza.

She quickly found No. 45.

It was an exquisite three-story building, not only inlaid with expensive alchemical glass but also with precious pollution-free flowers planted on both sides of the entrance, forming a stark contrast with other shops.
