Looking at the name of the tavern, a smile flashed across Cyber's eyes.
He jumped down from the carriage.
"Sir Cyber, you're here!"
Seeing the carriage in front of the tavern, the Elf waiter's eyes lit up.
As the savior of the Frost Tribe, Cyber was known by everyone here. He was a frequent customer of the tavern. He was recognized even before he got down from the carriage.
Looking at the enthusiastic Elf waiter, he smiled and nodded in response.
"Hello, Miga."
That was the name of the Elf waiter.
"Hey hey! Brother Miga, there's still me! "
In front of the carriage, Estelle grumbled unhappily.
The Elf waiter looked at the girl and greeted her with a smile.
"Estelle, you're getting prettier."
Estelle smiled and seemed to enjoy it. But soon, she snorted and raised her delicate little face, saying, "Don't worry.
"Seriously, each and every one of you, the more you learn from the chosen ones, the more glib you become!"
"Estelle, don't forget, I'm a Chosen One too."
Cyber rubbed the girl's head and smiled deliberately.
Estelle stuck out her tongue.
"Mr. Cyber is different from those mutated beasts running around the streets!"
"Mutated … mutated beasts …"
Hubert's mouth twitched. He wanted to know when Cyber learned this word.
Cyber laughed and handed the carriage to the Elf waiter.
"Stop at the same place, thank you."
"Mhmm, no problem."
The elven waiter stroked the horse's mane and whispered a few words. The horse snorted and obediently followed him to the stable behind the tavern, pulling the carriage.
The three of them pushed open the door and entered the tavern.
The tavern wasn't very big. It was decorated in a typical Elf style. The walls were carved with exquisite patterns, and the living wooden pillars, flowers, and vines filled the place with a natural atmosphere.
There were more than a dozen tables in the room. Most of the seats were already occupied. There were players with gorgeous equipment and elegant Elves.
Everyone gathered in twos and threes. They were either chatting or playing various board games developed by the players.
Cyber took a quick glance at them.
Not to mention mahjong and poker cards, even the otherworldly Gwent and Legend of the Three Kingdoms were created.
Mhmm …?
There's also Monopoly and Werewolf?
Wait … Did he see the goddess card?
It was worth mentioning that the ones who were most addicted to these board games were not the players, but the elves …
Even though he had seen it many times, Cyber couldn't help but put on a strange expression when he saw the handsome and beautiful Frost Elves sitting together, playing mahjong with the players, or holding cards and shouting 'Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!'.
However, all of this was nothing compared to the Frost Elf who was playing Bluestar music with the Elven Harp in the tavern.
Looking at the Frost Elf swaying its head and playing the familiar melody, Cyber couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Right now, he wanted to know which guy had taught "A Cut Plum Blossom" and "Waiting for a Millennium" to the elves.
She must be a genius to be able to translate these old songs into the Elvish language.
However, it had to be said that the Elves were indeed very talented in art.
Cyber was very sure that the players had a mischievous attitude when they taught these songs.
However, no one would have thought that after the elves adjusted the melody, these songs that were supposed to be out of character instantly became ethereal …
However, no matter how ethereal, Cyber still liked to listen to Elvish songs.
Soothing and moving.
It gave him a dreamy feeling that he was really living in a different world …
Especially when he was drinking in the tavern.
The elves in the tavern were addicted to board games, but the players sitting here were polarized.
Quite a few of them were sitting at the table in a daze.
Cyber knew that these players were AFK at a glance. They were most likely watching dramas or surfing the Internet in the system backend. There were probably a lot of them doing homework or even typing code.
After all, Elvish Nation could speed up thinking …
Just a few days ago, it was the end of the semester, and even he had to spend a few days in the tavern.
Needless to say, four times the normal speed was really good.
In two days, he finished a semester's worth of revision materials.
Other than the AFK players, there was a considerable group of players gathered under a crystal screen in the tavern.
Cyber glanced at it and saw that the players' final battle was being projected.
The final battle was a new trick that the players came up with in the game after the open beta was released.
It was said that it was jointly organized by a few major guilds.
For this, the Adorable Committee had also obtained the approval of the church to take the lead in building a circular arena that was modeled after ancient Rome in the City of Heaven's Chosen. The seven player main cities also had plans to build sub-arenas in the city.
Although Elvish Nation allowed players to duel in the virtual space, since the game was becoming more and more like a "different world", the players were more interested in this kind of "realistic" duel. The tickets had been selling well.
Even in the tavern where the broadcast was being broadcast, there was no lack of audience.
For the final battle, the players even opened a bet. Cyber had participated in it once before and earned three thousand contribution points.
There were duels almost every day. There were duels between individuals and groups of all levels, and most of them did not care about life and death.
As it used the contribution points application system in the PK mechanism, killing someone in the arena would not result in a red name. Only the contribution points used to activate the PK would be deducted.
The contribution points used to activate the PK would be shared by the organizers of the final battle and the participants.
Of course, players would drop resurrection tokens after death. If there were not enough resurrection tokens, there was even the risk of losing a level.
Even equipment could be damaged or even completely destroyed during the battle.
However, after winning the competition, the major guilds would provide very high rewards. Talented solo players would also be recruited by the major guilds.
Therefore … ever since the final battle was launched, even if the risk was not small, there had been a continuous stream of players participating.
It was said that a few major guilds were preparing to create a ladder competition and were applying to the church.
As long as the church approved it, or more precisely, as long as the big sister in the church who could communicate directly with the goddess approved it, it meant that the official website recognized it. There was even a chance that it would be added to the game's ranking system.
This was the pattern that the players had gradually discovered over the years.
'Elven Nation' was a growth game. As the players grew, the plot would continue to advance, and the game mechanism would continue to be perfected according to the players' needs.
This was one of the important charms of 'Elven Nation'.
Although the membership of the game was not cheap, the official website had always been considerate of the players.
The more effort the players put in, the more they would reap. As long as they worked hard enough, they could even receive the official website's bonuses!
The bonuses were real money. If they devoted themselves to the game, the money they received would be enough to solve their daily needs.
From Cyber's point of view, there were not many game companies with a conscience like the World Tree Black Technology Company on the Bluestar.
With the appearance of the final battle, there were more and more players who focused on personal combat.
This was especially so for the majority of newcomers who showed a strong interest in the arena.
Although fighting with demons and magical beasts could accumulate experience, most of the former had a low IQ, while the latter did not even have one. To the players, fighting with others was more exciting and allowed them to grow faster.
Cyber could clearly feel that with the appearance of the arena, the overall combat power of the players was slightly affected, and their skills became better and better.
"Yo! Cyber! You're here! "
Just as Cyber was engrossed in the battle on the crystal screen, an energetic voice drifted into his ears.
Cyber's heart skipped a beat, and a smile appeared on his face.
He slowly turned around and looked at the middle-aged Frost Elf who walked over from the bar counter.
The other party was wearing a Bluestar style deacon uniform. His water-blue hair mixed with white hair was combed to the back, and he looked old and handsome.
When he saw Cyber, a smile appeared on his faintly wrinkled face.
The two of them walked together and reached out their right hands at the same time. They clenched their fists and bumped them slightly.
"May the Goddess be with you, my old friend."
The middle-aged Frost Elf raised his eyebrows and said.
"May the Goddess be with you, my friend."
Cyber also raised his eyebrows and replied.
They looked at each other for a second.
Then, they all revealed smiles and burst into loud laughter.
They had a tacit understanding.
"Grandpa Gando, there's still me!"
Astaire jumped up on Cyber's shoulder and stuck her head out.
She was like a naughty deer that was eager to try.
Gando smiled and patted her head.
"Yes, there's also our cute Astaire. Do you want to drink flower tea today?"
"Damn it! Why do you all like to pat my head! "
Astaire dodged unhappily.
Unfortunately, due to the difference in strength, she could not dodge.
Then, she said angrily.
"Hmph! I want to drink the best flower tea! The most expensive! "
"Hahaha, no problem! It's all on Cyber's tab! "
Gando laughed.
"Damn, what happened to the permanent free service?"
Cyber's eyes widened.
"I've changed my mind."
Gando teased.
Schubert looked enviously at Cyber, who was talking and laughing with the Frost Elf NPC, with a face full of admiration.
Gan Duo quickly looked at him and said with a smile, "Don't worry.
"Good evening, Mr. Schubert. Your aura is getting stronger."
"Ah … Good evening! Gando … Uh … Lord Gando! "
Schubert was flattered and said excitedly.
Players who were active in Milovia knew that the Frost Elf Gando was a powerful Gold NPC.
Not only that, but he was also a rare Blue Quest NPC. He also had a touching game story recorded by Cyber, so he was quite famous among the players.
To be acquainted with such a Gold Class was indeed a joyous occasion for the players.
Under the guidance of the Frost Elf waiter, the few of them sat at a table in the corner of the tavern.
Cyber picked up the elven flower tea served by the waiter and took a sip before smiling.
"Gando, your tavern's business has been good recently."
Gando nodded.
"After the Goddess summoned the Chosen One again, it's become more and more lively."
"You resigned from your position as the High Priest of the Temple?"
"Of course. Everyone is back, and my mission is completed. I have to give the young Elves a chance. Also, there are many Chosen One who want to become a High Priest. Not to mention, I'm getting on in years. It's time for me to retire."
"Nonsense, you look much younger now than when you were in the Abyss! Who said he still had a few hundred years to live? "
"Heh, that's all thanks to the goddess' blessing. But … I've been fighting and killing my entire life. Now, I want to open a tavern, listen to tunes every day, play Gwent cards, and drink flower tea under the setting sun."
"Sounds like a good life. Call me next time. I haven't played Gwent in a long time."
"No, your skills are too good. It's boring to play with you."
"You need me to help you improve your skills! I have a lot of tricks here! "
"Heh, it doesn't matter if I win or not. It's just a pastime for me."
The two old friends chatted as they drank and ate snacks.
It was hard to imagine that one was a player and the other was an NPC.
They were really like old friends.
"Of course …"
Gando changed the topic and looked at the staff hanging on the wall with a serious expression.
"If the Goddess needs it, I'm always ready to pick up my weapon and defend our homeland."
Cyber froze when he heard Gando's words. The teacup in his hand froze in mid-air.
He looked at Gando's determined gaze and was slightly moved.
"You heard about it too?"
Gan Duo nodded and drained the Fairy Flower Tea in one gulp.
"Yeah, don't forget that this is a tavern. It's the best place to get news."
"If the Chosen Ones know about it, then I know about it too. The Goddess has already sent a divine warning to all the factions. It's no longer a secret …"
Then, he looked at Cyber and said, "You're right.
"When will the war start?"
Cyber shook his head.
"We don't know the specific information. We only know that we have to wait for the notification. But … the main battlefield should be in the Abyss."
"The world of Segers has been so peaceful for the past few months. Even the battlefield missions have decreased a lot. I think the Abyss is waiting for us to start the war first."
Gando nodded.
"Very likely."
"But don't worry too much. We have a million Chosen Ones. Even if we exclude those who are going to the Abyss, the rest are enough to defend the Elven Forest."
Cyber smiled.
Hearing this, Gan Duo sighed softly.
"But the Elven Forest isn't the only Elven Forest in the world of Segers …"
"Cyber, according to Lady Aurora, when our Frost Tribe first entered the Nirvana Wasteland, a small part of the entire plane hadn't sunk into the Abyss."
"We've been carefully protecting that area and resisting the Black Tide. Until the Evil God of the Abyss appeared, we didn't let the Devils step into our territory."
"Even so, it didn't take many years for the entire plane to gradually sink apart from the Cliff of Sorrows, which had a higher elevation …"
"Cyber, the plane is one. Even if the Elven Forest is well defended, if most of the Segers continent is eroded by the Abyss, it will be a devastating outcome for the entire plane …"
"At that time, the plane will still inevitably slide into the Abyss …"
Cyber's expression turned solemn after hearing Gando's words.
A moment later, he smiled.
"Don't worry, Gando. If that day really comes, we Chosen Ones will unite to protect the world."
"After all … this isn't just your home. It's our home too."
"Don't forget that we have the powerful Goddess!"
Gandalf laughed and picked up the refilled cup.
"Well said! This is our common home. We'll work together to protect it! "
"To our homeland, to the great goddess! Cheers!"
Cyber smiled faintly.
He, Esteger, and Hubert raised their cups at the same time.
"To our homeland, to Her Holiness the Great Goddess!"
Then, they downed their cups.
At this moment, there was a commotion in the distance.
Cyber looked over and saw the group of players around the crystal screen whistling and cheering.
"Who won?"
He raised an eyebrow.
"I think it's the First Legion. Today's the team competition, a five-man team."
Gando glanced at the screen.
"Team competition? The rewards for a team competition aren't low! "
Cyber sighed.
"Of course, I heard that even Lady Zero was invited as a guest for the award ceremony."
Gando said.
"Lady Zero?! Big Sister?! "
Surprise filled Cyber's face.
Gando nodded.
Then, he rolled up his sleeves again.
"Heh, to be honest, watching you guys fight in the arena, even my old bones are itching to fight."
"Don't, you're a Gold rank. Not to mention, we can resurrect infinitely. Your resurrection can be considered a miracle."
Cyber shook his head.
"I'm just joking. But if you know any Priests or Chosen Ones with good character, you can introduce them to me. With my abilities, it's time for me to find a student."
Gando squinted his eyes and smiled.
"Student? There's one right here. "
Cyber pushed Esteger forward.
"Hehehehe …"
The Elven girl smiled sweetly at Gando, tilted her head and stuck out her tongue.
Gando rolled his eyes at her and shook his head.
"This girl already has Lady Aurora as her teacher. I don't dare to teach her."
At this moment, another round of indistinct cheers sounded from the crystal screen.
This time, it wasn't the players around the crystal screen, but the ones inside the crystal screen.
The two subconsciously looked at the screen and saw that the winning team had ascended the podium.
The spectator seats in the arena were filled with elves, players, and NPCs.
"The award ceremony is starting."
Gando raised an eyebrow.
Cyber looked over and saw a valiant figure enter the arena amidst the cheers of the players.
She wore a black skirt armor and a cold and beautiful face.
She was the NPC whose popularity had dropped to third place after the return of the Demigod Aurora.
God's Chosen Zero.
