Chapter 49 - Hidden Items, Blood Domain Token

Chapter 49: Hidden Items, Blood Domain Token“Is it real? I’m still in the valley, and the first boss killed in the secret realm is gone?”

“I haven’t even left the city yet!”

“Who’s this amazing player? They already got the first clue on the first day of the secret realm!”

“Su Wanyan, that name sounds like a female player. Who has heard of it?”

“I don’t know, maybe they’re professional players. Let’s ask on the forum!”

After the recent update of “Nine Realms,” the official forum was also updated, allowing players to access it without logging out and browsing posts directly in the game.

At this point, the forum was filled with posts like “Who is Su Wanyan?”, “Is Su Wanyan a professional player?” and “Is Su Wanyan male or female?”. Unfortunately, despite numerous speculations, there wasn’t a definite answer.

Meanwhile, Su Wanyan also realized why Gu Liuyun had given her the team captain role. It was because the system announcement only displayed the captain’s name, but she didn’t fully understand the significance of Gu Liuyun’s decision.

Seeing her confusion, Gu Liuyun explained, “You’re the future leader of the guild. If my name was on the announcement, other players might assume I’m the core, and even if you take over management, they would still think I’m the real leader.”

Su Wanyan understood and felt deeply moved by Gu Liuyun’s forward-thinking gesture.

“Alright, later tonight, you can use the Su Wanyan ID linked in the forum to promote yourself. It should generate a good response,” Gu Liuyun suggested, advising her to seize the opportunity.

Su Xiaoyue cautiously glanced at the massive corpse of the Blood Bat King and asked, “Can we loot the corpse now? The first boss kill should drop some valuable items, right?”

Gu Liuyun smiled and nodded, saying, “Let’s go check the loot.”

The four of them approached the Blood Bat King’s corpse, and Su Xiaoyue excitedly circled around it. However, she found nothing and looked quite perplexed.

“Where are the artifacts? The magical treasures? The pills and techniques?”

As she spoke, she even attempted to flip the massive corpse of the Blood Bat King, hoping to find the items hidden beneath it.

Gu Liuyun found this amusing, lightly tapped her head, and said, “This isn’t a traditional online game. The items aren’t here.”

Su Xiaoyue touched her head and asked, “Then where are they?”

Gu Liuyun laughed and walked up to the corpse of the Blood Bat King. He explained, “Loot is usually found in the enemy’s storage bag or Nascent Ring in the Nine Realms. The loot is typically hidden in their demon core if a monster can’t transform into a human.”

Gu Liuyun pulled out the Crimson Heart Sword from the Blood Bat King’s heart. He then used a strong motion to extract a fist-sized blood-red bead, which he caught.

Su Xiaoyue quickly approached, examined the blood-red bead, and asked, “Is this the demon core? How do we retrieve the items?”

“Just give it a hit with your spiritual power,” Gu Liuyun replied.

Gu Liuyun then flicked the demon core with his finger, sending a surge of sword energy that caused it to fly up, spin in the air, and create a space vortex beneath it. A variety of items fell out of the vortex. After everything had dropped, the demon core fell back to the ground.

Pointing to the pile of items, Gu Liuyun explained, “These are the spoils, including the demon core. They can be used for alchemy and other purposes.”

Su Xiaoyue cheered and rushed to examine the items.

After reviewing the detailed loot information, Gu Liuyun nodded in approval. The loot was quite good this time, and they even found a high-quality spiritual weapon. The first kill rewards were indeed generous.

“Gu Liuyun, how should we divide these items?” Su Xiaoyue inquired.

Gu Liuyun replied, “I’ll give the Light Spirit Boots to your sister, the Soul Seizing Bell to Rose, you can keep the Heart-Breaking Fist, and as for the Blood Bat King Demon Pellet, you can give it to me since you probably won’t use it. Is that okay?”

Su Xiaoyue and Su Wanyan had no objections to this distribution, but Blood Rose hesitated, feeling that she hadn’t contributed much to deserve an item.

Gu Liuyun reassured her, “There’s no need to worry about that. You are the vice president of our guild and have worked hard.”

Su Wanyan said, “Rose, just accept it. We are all like family now.”

Still uncertain, Blood Rose said, “I haven’t done much. Maybe I’ll take these later.”

At this point, Su Xiaoyue pushed the Soul-Stealing Bell into Rose’s hand and said, “Rose, just take it. I’ve been slacking off, too, and I’d feel bad taking it. Please accept it for my sake.”

This statement made Su Wanyan and Gu Liuyun burst into laughter, and Blood Rose couldn’t help but laugh and accepted the item with a smile. Later, Su Xiaoyue divided the remaining spirit stones into four parts and distributed them to everyone.

Gu Liuyun patted her head and gave her his share, saying, “Use it to buy some candy for yourself; I don’t need it.”

Su Xiaoyue grinned and, while putting the spirit stones into her storage bag and asked, “What should we do next?”

Gu Liuyun responded, “Of course, we should leave this place.”

He then turned and walked out, with Su Wanyan and Blood Rose following.

“Wait for me,” Su Xiaoyue called out.

She was in the process of leaving but noticed a faint glimmer out of the corner of her eye where the Blood Bat King had been turned into a statue.

“Hey, what’s this?” Su Xiaoyue inquired.

Her words prompted Gu Liuyun and the others to turn their heads. They saw Su Xiaoyue picking up something from the statue’s fragments.
