Chapter 90: 90, Goldfinch Central Plaza_1
Translator: 549690339
One o’clock in the afternoon, Goldfinch City Square.
There was a large gathering of players, drawn here by the news of Nemesis, the big influencer, planning to release a quest.
Many of the players were game live-streamers. They activated the in-game cameras, preparing to broadcast the events that were about to unfold in the square.
“Hello everyone, I am ‘Maple Forest of Matsushima’…”
“Right in front of me is the Goldfinch City Square, where Nemesis will be releasing a quest in half an hour…”
“There are so many experts in the square! Look, over there in the distance is ‘Shepherd in the Clouds’, the leader of the Mu Yun guild. He’s a mage. His weapon is a [Matchstick], a level 10 green magic wand from the Little Annie the Match-Seller dungeon. Quite a unique design…..”
“Look at this one, here is Snow Leopard, the guild leader of the Department of Affairs, said to be a rare Druid…
“Wow! ‘A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated’, the second highest ranking player in the leaderboard, is here too! Could we get a picture, A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated?”
“A Thousand Cups Unintoxicated just glared at me. Boohoo, I’m so upset that I need extra cookies to mend my wounded heart…”
“Maple Forest of Matsushima” was a popular streamer with over two million followers, and the chat on his live-stream was scrolling quickly:
“Oh, come on, you’re a man in your thirties, and you’re weeping like a child. Are you trying to be sickening?”
“These are all the cookies I have, take them.”
“Take a look around, I see a lot of leaderboard players.”
“Mr. Matsushima, there is an adorable Ioli at 2 0’clock direction. Go and check her out! If you do, I’ll send you a 1000 yuan gift!”
Upon seeing the incoming gifts, Mr. Song immediately perked up.
Looking to the left, indeed, there was a little girl in light brown scaled armour approaching.
Determined to earn his gift, Mr. Song quickly walked over to the little girl:
“Hello little miss! I am ‘Maple Forest of Matsushima’, a well-known game streamer. Say hello to my followers!” Mr. Song put the girl on camera.
The chat in the live stream exploded:
“Wow! What an adorable Ioli.
“I wish I had a daughter this cute!”
“The bow and arrow the Ioli is using are from a level 10 dungeon, right? She must be good.”
“Of course! Can anyone capable of clearing a level 10 dungeon at this stage be weak?”
The little girl didn’t answer.
She coldly raised her bow and arrow, aiming at Mr. Song.
There were three teammates standing next to her, but none of them interfered, instead watching with their arms folded, enjoying the drama.
Seeing the girl’s arrow aimed at him, Mr. Song grinned: “Haha little girl, I’m a level 10 defense warrior. You can’t break my defense…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the arrow in the little girl’s hand took flight.
Whoosh!
A blaze of scarlet light shot across the square, instantly turning Mr. Song into a wisp of white light. He was kicked offline to reflect on this. Seeing this, the viewers in the chat room erupted in laughter:
“Level 10 defense warrior? That’s it?”
“Mr. Song, is your defense made of paper?”
“Haha, that was a smack in the face, and so fast too!”
“You can’t break my defense … Ah, haha, I’m dying of laughter!”
The live broadcast chat was filled with joyous laughter.
Of course, the one who shot the arrow just now was none other than the “Sky Dragon” Ioli.
She used her innate skill [Heart Piercing Arrow], dealing 500% real damage in a single shot, instantly incapacitating the streamer Mr. Song. The NPC guards in the square just warned her with a glance but didn’t intervene.
Because the guards had received orders to not interfere in infighting among the adventurers from other worlds. They would only arrest anyone who attacked the native inhabitants.
Sky Dragon didn’t give much thought to the subject of one-shotting the host.
At this moment, she was hugging Swift’s thigh with her big, adorable eyes blinking: “Miss. Swift, would you like to join Nemesis brother’s guild with me later? It would be reassuring for both of us to join together.”
“I’m afraid that’s impossible.” Swift replied awkwardly, “I’ve signed a contract with the guild. I can’t afford the penalty for changing guilds.”
“No problem, I’ll talk to my brother about us mutually terminating the contract!” Sky Dragon quickly responded, “Moreover, how about I triple the salary for you if you stay with me?”
“Triple salary?!”
Before Swift could reply, the Red -Eyed Black Dragon who was walking in front turned his head abruptly, his eyes shining brightly: “How about me? Are you willing to take me along? My gaming skill is top-notch in the industry!” Who would want to stay in Emperor Blood if there’s a triple salary? Even the always stern-faced Giant God Soldier looked over with interest.
“Um…”
Sky Dragon pouted and thought about it before shaking her head: “Sorry Uncle
Red -Eyed, to pay Miss. Swift triple salary, I would need to cut my pocket money by a quarter. If I take you and Little Giant with me, I won’t have any pocket money.”
“A quarter of…pocket money…”
The three, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon, were stunned.
As top gamers, they signed a top tier contract with Emperor Blood for an annual salary of three million.
Now with Sky Dragon’s “a quarter of her pocket money”, they were nearly speechless.
Was their collective salary times three still less than what this little girl had for pocket money?
This…
On the other side of the square, Su Yu also mounted Dima and arrived on the main square.
“Hey, everyone’s here!” Su Yu waved at all the players present.
There weren’t quite a thousand players in the square at the moment. A rough estimate would put it between seven to eight hundred.
But that was to be expected.
Some players followed the mission guide to other main cities, while a considerable amount had joined the rebel faction. So it was normal that less than a thousand were present here.
Those present were all elite members of the major guilds or high-level solo players.
Besides several game hosts gathering around to enthusiastically greet Su Yu, others maintained their etiquette and watched from afar.
Most of them had not seen Su Yu before, so upon their first meeting, they immediately acknowledged him with a salute.
Everyone was exceptionally attentive towards Su Yu, the most dazzling player in the game.
“Before announcing the quest, I want to ask everyone something. Is there anyone who wants to join the guild I’ve created?” Su Yu thundered.
The “Yellow Turban Army” guild was established not long after entering the city, but currently, he was the only one in it. So with such a great opportunity, he could try to recruit members.
“Me, me, me!”
A little red-haired girl quickly bounced out from the crowd.
Not only her, but she also brought a beautiful blonde woman along.
“Hello, Nemesis. I am Sky Dragon. After joining the guild, can I buy Howling Moon Wolf pet eggs from you?” Sky Dragon asked cheerfully.
Her main reason for joining Su Yu’s guild was for the Howling Moon Wolf pet eggs.
She loves this snow-white large dog but had no way to get it. So she can only buy from Su Yu.
“Of course! Not only the Howling Moon Wolf pet eggs, but you can also buy more valuable pet eggs from me in the future!”
Su Yu had long known that Sky Dragon was going to join, so he directly sent her an invitation to join the guild.
After her successful admission, he promoted her to the “Officer” position, so it would be easier for her to invite others to join.
“Then I can rest assured.” Sky Dragon narrowed her eyes happily.
Upon joining the guild, she opened the guild exchange list.
Sky Dragon originally intended to search directly for the Howling Moon Wolf pet egg.
But when she saw the first few items on the list, her eyes bulged in surprise.
“Level 33 rare equipment! There are level 33 items on the guild exchange list!
Brother Nemesis, can you even defeat level 33 monsters?!”
