The next morning, Asuna changed her clothes and went to the Teleportation Crystal that they had agreed on.
To her surprise, besides Ying Lili and Fangzheng, there was a third person beside the Teleportation Crystal, and that was …
"Sister Asuna …!"
Seeing Asuna walking over, Kuri waved her hand happily. Looking at the girl in front of her, Asuna's nervous mood also relaxed a lot. A trace of a smile appeared on her face, and she hurriedly walked over.
"Hello, Yui."
Asuna greeted Yui softly, then raised her head and looked at Fangzheng with a puzzled expression.
"Mr. Fangzheng, is Yui coming too?"
"Of course."
Fangzheng nodded in response to Asuna's question. During this period of time, he had basically become Yui's "surrogate father". Apart from daily training and dungeon raiding, as well as some private time, Fangzheng basically spent most of his time accompanying Yui. Yui was also very close to Fangzheng, so Asuna was not surprised that Fangzheng brought Yui along.
However, she did not know that the reason Fangzheng brought Yui along was to guard against her.
Fangzheng had already heard about the source of Asuna's stress from Ying Lili. Frankly speaking, he did not have a good solution for the time being, but at the very least, Fangzheng had to make sure that Asuna's condition did not continue to worsen.
Fangzheng was sure that if he only brought Ying Lili and Asuna out shopping, Asuna might think of some nonsense, so he simply brought Yui along as insurance. Ying Lili had never drawn a loli novel before, so no matter how thirsty Asuna was, she would not go so far as to not let Yui go.
If that was the case, then Fangzheng would have to consider reshaping Asuna's mind.
But now, Asuna's reaction seemed normal. In fact, she was slightly relieved. Just as Fangzheng was worried, she didn't sleep well last night. She kept thinking about today's date.
Although Ying Lili said that there was no need to worry, what if it happened? What should he do if such a situation were to occur? Should he refuse or welcome? Or should he close his eyes and pretend he didn't know anything? Or he might as well just hand himself over.
Now that she saw Yui, she knew that her efforts last night were in vain.
This made her sigh in relief.
"Where are we going today?"
"Let's go to the Town of Beginnings."
Fangzheng was obviously prepared, and Ying Lili and Asuna didn't object.
After half a year, the Town of Beginnings was no longer the same as before. Among the 10,000 players, less than 1,000 were qualified to be on the frontline. Aside from the Clearers, there were also the Gathering and Combat teams. These teams had less than 3,000 players in total, and the rest were ordinary players who cherished their lives. Among them, there were also some unlucky players like Asuna, who had entered the dungeon by mistake and never got out.
In the beginning, these players didn't know what to do. But now, it turned out that humans did have the talent to adapt to the environment.
As Shi Feng walked through the Town of Beginnings, he could see stalls and shops set up by players everywhere. There were even quite a few players running around the streets. These players were basically producers in the Town of Beginnings. They were responsible for purchasing raw materials, processing them into finished products, and selling them to the outside world to earn money from other guilds or groups.
Of course, the money wasn't much, but it was enough to satisfy the needs of the players.
Fangzheng's Dark Moon Sword had also purchased a large plot of land in the Town of Beginnings and rented it out to the production-class players. They could operate their own shops and earn a living by paying the rent. As the saying went, those who didn't work couldn't eat. Fangzheng wasn't running a charity, and the guild wasn't a charity organization. It was already quite good that he could provide these ordinary production players with a storefront.
There were people who asked the guild for help, but Fangzheng always ignored them. They had hands and feet, but they didn't work hard. They were greedy for life and afraid of fighting. In Fangzheng's opinion, these people deserved to starve to death.
Players could be heard hawking their wares as they walked along the streets.
"Let's go take a look! The latest high-grade weapon is currently on sale at 10% off! Don't miss it if you're interested!"
"Silverscale Breastplate, Blue Quality, 5 Gold Coins …!"
"Freshly baked bread! Bread!"
Although the game wasn't realistic enough, it was still very close to reality in many aspects. Many players weren't good at fighting, but they had real-life skills such as sewing and cooking, which could be put to good use at this moment. Cooking in the game wasn't like in reality, where you didn't have to do all kinds of work yourself. You only needed to mix various proportions of vegetables, fruits, meat, and seasonings, and then activate the cooking skill. Even so, there were still techniques to mix.
For example, you needed to add a little salt when cooking, but how much was a little?
This question alone was enough to make a lot of people who didn't know how to cook feel at a loss.
Fangzheng bought a sandwich for Yui, then led everyone on the street. They felt a lot more relaxed as they looked at the lively scene around them.
"Everyone's slowly getting used to life in this world."
Ying Lili smiled when she saw the scene in front of her.
"I still remember in the early days, many people lived in fear and didn't know what to do at all. Looking at them now, they seem to have gotten used to life in this world. "
"Humans are very adaptable creatures. Even if they fall on a deserted island, they'll try their best to adapt to the environment. That's why humans became the rulers of the earth."
While speaking, Fangzheng stopped in front of a food stall and looked at the display in front of him in surprise. Not only him, even Asuna and Ying Lili were stunned when they saw the things on the stall.
"Is this … ice cream?"
"That's right, sir."
Hearing Asuna's question, the stall owner also walked over with a smile.
"This is my exclusive secret recipe. Look, there are strawberry flavours, lemon flavours and banana flavours.... Which one do you prefer?"
"What's the flavor of this Blue Hawaii?"
Asuna curiously stared at the label on the stall and asked. Upon hearing her question, the stall owner's smile became even brighter.
"Blue Hawaii is the flavor of Blue Hawaii. Sir, you'll know after you try it."
"Hmm …."
Asuna frowned and thought for a moment. Then, she turned around and looked at Fangzheng.
"Mr. Fangzheng, you choose."
"Then I'll have one of each."
Hearing Asuna's question, Fangzheng casually gave a solution.
"We'll exchange and taste each other's flavors. That way, we'll taste all the flavors."
"Okay, that's a good idea!"
Ying Lili immediately nodded in agreement, while Yui also raised her hand.
"Uh … sir …."
The ice cream stall owner's smile stiffened. He looked at Fangzheng, then at Asuna, then at Ying Lili, who was hugging Fangzheng's arm, and then at Yui, who was holding Fangzheng's hand ….
"One of each, please."
"Okay …."
What the stall owner regretted the most was that he didn't mark the price on the stall. If he knew this would happen, he would have increased the price tenfold!
But now …. How infuriating!
