Chapter 93

The next morning (relative to game time), Chu Feiyue and Qin Yue logged into the game. Chu Feiyue had already told Qin Yue about her desire to visit Fertile City to see Xue Piao Siji. Qin Yue, who had a good impression of the leader-like figure, urged Chu Feiyue to set off quickly.

The little maid, Elsa, wouldn't be bored watching the house by herself. When Chu Feiyue looked out of her room just now, she saw Elsa starting to research strange potions in an open space in the yard. Although explosions kept happening, Elsa's smile grew brighter, indicating she was enjoying herself.

Chu Feiyue didn't want to interrupt such focused dedication, so she and her sister quietly left.

Science is rigorous and lonely.

The teleportation room was on the second floor of their house, so they didn't even need to go downstairs. Although it was called a teleportation room, it only contained a solitary teleportation stone, a super-large teleportation crystal taller than a person... Chu Feiyue had seen such a large teleportation crystal once in the center of the teleportation square, capable of supporting the simultaneous teleportation of thousands of players. She wondered why Sister Xeni would leave such a precious item here to gather dust, wouldn't it be better to give it to Sister Aurelia?

Could it be that Sister Aurelia doesn't need it at all?

With this doubt, Chu Feiyue and Qin Yue warmed up the teleportation crystal. The large one was indeed more powerful; it seemed to connect to all the cities in the empire. The magic map next to it was dotted with teleportation points covering the entire territory, even marking the Wind and Sand City in the far west and the Ice and Snow City in the far north.

The point representing Fertile City was still the largest black lump, very noticeable. Chu Feiyue pulled Qin Yue and tapped the black lump with a telekinetic arrow, activating the teleportation crystal.

A purple light flashed, and the two figures disappeared. Outside, Elsa's pointed ears twitched, and she continued her potion experiments.

Safe journey, Your Majesty.

...

Chu Feiyue and Qin Yue were teleported to the teleportation square in Fertile City.

As soon as they opened their eyes, they were stunned by the scene before them.

—It wasn't that the scenery was particularly spectacular; in fact, the buildings here were far inferior to those in Huating, not even comparable. What truly stunned them were the players.

Crowds were nothing; compared to this, they were just peanuts.

Heaven, how many people were there? The square, with a radius of over a hundred meters, was packed to the brim with people, at least tens of thousands?

The teleportation square also served as a resurrection point, but the light columns from the teleportation stone were bright purple, while the resurrection light columns were milky white. Countless white light columns kept appearing around Chu Feiyue, and each time, a player would emerge, either dejected or cursing. Chu Feiyue estimated that hundreds of light columns appeared every second, and with so many people blocking the way... the result was a traffic jam.

Crowds are a national characteristic, and there's nothing we can do about it...

Thanks to Qin Yue's special nature, the people around them instinctively made a small circular space for them, about half a square meter, and no matter how crowded it got, they wouldn't get too close. Otherwise, with Chu Feiyue's constitution, she would have been lost in the crowd long ago.

"Wow, brother, there are so many people here."

Qin Yue covered her mouth in amazement at this miracle only seen in the Heavenly Empire.

"Thank goodness Grandpa Village Head helped us choose Huating. If we had gone to Fertile City back then, I wouldn't have been able to find you, right?"

Well, Qin Yue was just imagining some amusing scenarios.

For example, Chu Feiyue being swept away by a current and her sister coming to the rescue, or her brother falling into a whirlpool and her sister coming to the rescue, or her brother being squeezed in the crowd and her sister coming to the rescue, and so on.

Chu Feiyue didn't know what to say, but she quickly pulled her sister out of the crowd. Beyond the teleportation square were various stalls where players displayed items for sale, and occasionally, some more active players would shout to attract customers, making it quite lively. However, this wasn't a safe trading area designated by NPCs, so fights often broke out over territory. Personal grudges between players could be settled through duels or forced PKs. The difference was that duels were not interfered with by NPC guards and had no death penalties, while forced PKs would result in a red name and being hunted by NPC guards and thrown into a small black room.

It was said that the small black room contained muscle-bound men who had been starved for years and perverted gays, but who knew if it was true...

Following Xue Piao Siji's instructions, Chu Feiyue opened her friend list. Xue Piao Siji and Yu Hu Rongfeng were both online.

Dream: "Sister Xue, I've come to see you."

Xue Piao Siji: "Ah! Little Dream? Really? Where are you now?"

Dream: "I'm at the teleportation square in Fertile City. Where are you? I'll come find you."

Xue Piao Siji: "Oh, you're already here... I'm in the forest east of Fertile City with Fire Phoenix's sister. Fire Phoenix has taken on a hidden quest, which seems to be related to a hidden class."

Dream: "Then I'll come find you with Qin Yue. Maybe I can help."

Xue Piao Siji: "Sure, come on over."

After hanging up the private chat, Chu Feiyue and Qin Yue headed towards the eastern gate of Fertile City.

...

On the other side, Xue Piao Siji sighed in relief after hanging up the private chat. She was now level 14 with 13% experience, and her equipment was complete, which was almost an impossible goal for players at this stage. As a priest, she always emitted a faint white light, making her look especially holy and sacred. This was a benefit of the priest class, which was currently the most popular among girls, after all, they were very beautiful.

Well, among normal classes.

Beside her, a girl in a dark blue magic robe was staring at the forest. She looked almost identical to Yu Hu Rongfeng, but no one would mistake them. The reason was that this mage was too cold, with a "do not approach" aura, as if one glance at her would cause frostbite.

Sister Xue turned her head to look down the road, where a red figure was gradually approaching.

"Ah, Little Night, your sister is back."

The cold girl, Ice Phoenix, nodded and continued to stare.

Xue Piao Siji was used to her personality, after all, they had grown up together. Ice Phoenix's cold nature was a headache, but sometimes it was also cute... However, the priority now was to complete Yu Hu Rongfeng's quest, which might be a hidden class quest. If Yu Hu Rongfeng could become a hidden class, it would be a great help to the Snowfall Alliance.

The Snowfall Alliance's position in Fertile City was awkward; no one dared to provoke them, but no one respected them either. Just a bunch of women... Many people had their eyes on the pretty girls in the Snowfall Alliance, and their initial intentions for getting close to the alliance were not good.

Fertile City's current power structure was chaotic, but the largest were the Golden Wolf Gang led by Jin Lang Pori and the Sky-Shielding Wing led by Chui Tian Zhi Yi. After all, their economic strength was there. Although Xue Piao Siji's family background was also good, she was still a step behind these two giants. Moreover, her family supported her gaming but didn't take it too seriously, and most of the money she spent on cultivating new members came from her own pocket.

Maybe, I should really consider developing in another city... she sometimes thought.

However, those two interesting sisters had arrived. They didn't seem to be ordinary players, after all, they had named themselves after game names. And their names didn't appear on any rankings, indicating they were hidden. If they were just ordinary players, why hide? So they must be quite extraordinary...

Maybe Yu Hu Rongfeng's quest could use their help; after all, more people mean more hope.

With this thought, Xue Piao Siji looked forward to Chu Feiyue and Qin Yue's arrival even more.
