At 5 AM on the 1st of March, 20XX, the port of Faroland in the Kingdom of the Elves was within sight. The sailors of the entire fleet burst into thunderous cheers. As for Dafei, he was so moved that his eyes were brimming with tears and his bowels were wet.
He had set off from Aroline, passed through the Coldwind Straits, and became famous after killing a demigod. Then, he passed through the Sea of Floating Ice, took a detour to Fire Dragon Island, and then explored the North Pole. On his way back, he was trapped in the Coldwind Straits and defeated a demigod again. Then, he turned to the Netherworld Sea, passed through the Netherworld city of Fatalon, Ghostdragon Cliff, and then turned to Miracle Island. It took a total of 12 days in real life. Dafei had less than 30 hours of sleep offline, and he finally returned victorious.
The tall buildings of the city stood in the distance, the white sails near the shore were busy, the horns of departure sounded, and the breeze along the coast was refreshing. Flocks of seagulls circled the mast of the fleet with their cheerful cries.
When Dafei's fleet docked at the port, Aroline's channel exploded! All the small boats of the merchant players couldn't help but follow Dafei's fleet, taking screenshots and photos to see what was going on.
Under the command of the soldiers, the guild channel also shouted in unison, "Welcome back Brother Fei! Brother Fei, you've worked hard! "
Apart from knowing that Dafei had killed a demigod, no one knew where Dafei had gone on this voyage, and no one knew what Dafei had gained from this trip. Therefore, when Da Fei docked at the dock, almost half of the city's players rushed to the dock. For a moment, there was a sea of people, and the streets were empty. The huge flow of people instantly drowned the welcoming team that the soldiers had painstakingly organized. All the players present wanted to know what Dafei had gained from this trip.
This question was quite difficult for Dafei. Dafei also wanted to know what he had gained from this trip. But what Dafei wanted to know more was why the players had such a huge reaction. Even if Andy Lau arrived in Hong Kong, there shouldn't be such a big reaction, right?
Of course, Dafei didn't know how many groundless rumors the soldiers had spread throughout the city that night. Almost every player in the city knew that Dafei was coming back and that Dafei was going to bring back a lot of awesome items.
Dafei waved at the sea of players as he walked down the escalator. When Dafei stepped on the bluestone tiles of the dock, he felt a sense of stability. It felt good to be back on land!
City Channel [Dafei]: At this time, I only want to say four words — hahahahaha!
The entire city was shocked yet again!
Among the crowd, Soldier Da Wei and the newcomer Eastward Sword, who had not joined the guild yet, immediately squeezed in front of Dafei and bowed deeply in front of the tens of thousands of people present. "Welcome back, Brother Fei!"
Dafei laughed heartily. "You've worked hard! You're too polite! "
The three of them bowed. "Brother Fei, you've worked hard! Brother Fei, you're welcome! "
For a moment, the crowd booed!
That's right, a game was a game after all. Many things that they wouldn't be able to do in real life could be done in the game without any scruples! Did the soldiers create such a grand scene just to suck up to their big brother?
Don't look down on college students these days! Soldier's goal was to take this opportunity to publicly acknowledge him as big brother in front of the tens of thousands of people present, hundreds of thousands of people on the forum, and millions of people in the China server. He wanted the entire China server to know that he was Dafei's little brother. Then, would Dafei mistreat his little brother? If he didn't do well, how would others look at Dafei? Where would Dafei hide his face? So, after this ceremony, even if he was a pile of mud, Dafei would have to support himself up to the wall! Unless he, Dafei, was really as shameless as the rumors said! If he really met such a weirdo in the crowd, Soldier could only resign himself to fate!
College students were scheming, but Dafei was in a good mood and didn't think too much about it. What Dafei was thinking about now was, how much could he earn on this trip? Of course, the most important thing was, how much experience could he earn?
Dafei set off with more than 50,000 units of goods, then sold them for more than 900,000 gold coins worth of 400 units of ore. In other words, this trip's profit was 18 times! This 18 times profit was the result of the combination of international long-distance travel, the risk factor, and the urgent need of the local area.
Would it also increase by 18 times on the return trip? Not necessarily. At least the ore might not be "urgently needed", so the return trip's profit might be around 9 to 10 times. Dafei brought 2,400 units of ore on the return trip, which converted to about 5.4 million gold coins. This was the 5.4 million gold coins reward for Dafei helping the Dwarf General salvage the dragon bones! 5.4 million gold coins multiplied by 9 to 10 times would be 54 million gold coins!
54 million! 10 times the value! Was it possible? Was it possible?! From a realistic point of view, it was impossible, but everything was possible in the game! In fact, in history, spices produced in Southeast Asia were transported thousands of miles to Europe, and their value increased by more than a hundred times.
Other than the 2,400 units of ore, there were 300 deep-sea specialties picked up from the mouth of the Whirlpool Siren. Legend had it that these things were worth a hundred times the value of gold, and 1 gold was 10,000 gold coins. This brother didn't ask for a hundred times the value. Ten times would do. Ten times would be 30 million! At least 30 million! Was it possible? Was it possible?!
In other words, this brother's trip would cost close to 100 million! Was it possible? Was it possible?! Haha! Wahahaha!
Dafei patted the shoulders of the three people in front of him and said happily, "Brothers, don't be so polite. I just came back empty-handed, so I can't take out a greeting gift. But if you accompany me to the Exchange, you will have greeting gifts. Wahahaha!"
The soldier immediately straightened his back and said flatteringly, "Brother Dafei coming back safely is the biggest greeting gift you can give us!"
One Sword from the East also straightened his back, his eyes shining as he said, "Brother Fei, do you still remember me despite your busy schedule?"
Dafei laughed. "Da Bing has told me about you. You're One Sword from the East. We've met in the preliminaries!"
East Sword was overjoyed. "It's my greatest honor to be remembered by Brother Fei. That battle made me admire Brother Fei immensely, so I want to come and work for Brother Fei. I have a small greeting gift for you, Brother Fei, you must accept it!"
— System Notice: East Sword has sent you a trade request. Do you accept?
Dafei made fun of the trade window and laughed. "As the big brother, I haven't had the chance to give my brothers a greeting gift. How can I accept your greeting gift? You can keep it for yourself!"
East Sword shook his head. "It's a necklace and ring that I got from someone. I don't need it, but Brother Fei, you must accept it. If Brother Fei doesn't accept it, it means that Brother Fei isn't willing to protect me. I won't be able to eat or sleep well!"
Oh? Could it be the treasure that the soldier mentioned dropped from Bloodsea Raging Wave? Wahahaha! If that's the case, I must accept it. If I don't, I'll feel uncomfortable all over!
Dafei was overjoyed. "Alright! Then I won't hold back! "
— System Notice: Your trade with East Sword has been completed. You have received "Mana Ring" and "Mana Necklace"!
— Mana Ring: Grade B Strategic Artifact, + 50 Mana, + 10% Mana Recovery Speed. It can be combined with the Mana Necklace, Mana Ring, and Mana Bracelet to form the low-grade artifact "Mana Spring"!
— Mana Necklace: Grade B Strategic Artifact, + 70 Mana, + 13% Mana Recovery Speed. It can be combined with the Mana Ring, Mana Ring, and Mana Bracelet to form the low-grade artifact "Mana Spring"!
Mana Spring: At the beginning of a new day, the hero's total Mana is doubled. (Combination artifact has all the attributes of individual parts)
Dafei's eyes widened! Dafei's hands couldn't help but tremble slightly! This was the supreme artifact of a Wizard, the component of the Mana Spring! What did Mana mean to a Wizard? Let's not talk about anything else. If I didn't have the Sea Spirit Weapon, which has a few thousand points of magic power, how could I have escaped from the Desolate Sea?
Limitless magic power meant limitless combat power! Any one of these components could be sold online for at least a hundred thousand! He actually gave it to me just like that? This first meeting gift of mine is really a hot potato. My luck has really turned for the better. I can also find such a loyal and far-sighted follower!
Dafei took a deep breath and patted Eastward's shoulder. He said with infinite emotion, "I know how much this pair of treasures is worth! This first meeting gift of yours is too valuable! But don't worry, if you follow me, you can earn back ten times or even a hundred times the money! I won't let you down! "
The soldier immediately chimed in, "Brother Fei is so loyal! Thank you, Brother Fei! "
Dafei laughed heartily, "Follow me, there's no need to thank me!"
At this moment, a Level 0 player with a gold name called "Hero Dispatch 064" squeezed out of the crowd and stood in front of Dafei, "Hello, Mr. Dafei, I am Frontline Reporter 064 of Hero Dispatch. Can I take up a moment of your time to ask you some questions that the majority of players are concerned about?"
Oh! I'm being interviewed! A gold name was specially verified by the game company. It was equivalent to a special account like a GM in traditional games. Then, he must be a reporter!
Dafei was in a good mood, "Ask away, ask away!"
The reporter said, "Where did Dafei go on this adventure?"
Dafei laughed, "It's a national secret!"
The reporter laughed, "That's right, Mr. Dafei is a well-known international player. Mr. Dafei's personal secrets are undoubtedly China's secrets."
The soldier immediately gave a thumbs up, "Well said, I like it!"
The reporter smiled and asked, "Then, Mr. Dafei's killing of demigods is known to the world. Can you reveal the type of demigod that Mr. Dafei killed and the drops?"
Dafei laughed, "Without a doubt, the demigod is a sea monster. You can bid for this big ship of mine and compare it to the ship I set out on. As for the drops of the demigod, there must be a divine artifact! Wahahaha! "
The reporter exclaimed, "There is indeed a big difference. This ship's bow is the reward of this trip, right? Can you tell me the function of this ship's bow? "
"Aiya, it's a national secret!"
"Then, Mr. Dafei, what's the relationship between this NPC ship and you? Is this your new ship? "
"Aiya, it's another national secret!"
"Then, Mr. Dafei …"
"Wahahaha, national secret! Can you stop spying on national secrets? I'm very troubled! "
The reporter laughed and said, "Alright then, the more national secrets Mr. Dafei has, the higher the chances of our China region winning. Then, what is Dafei's expectation for the international competition that starts this afternoon?"
As a subordinate reporter, in front of tens of thousands of spectators, Dafei said without hesitation, "Of course, to fight for the world championship!"
