The tavern's business was booming as usual.
What caught Ye Zichen's attention was that the tavern had always been filled with players.
But this time, there seemed to be a lot more natives in the tavern.
When they hid their names, many people would be unable to tell whether they were players or natives.
Ye Zichen could immediately tell that it was their clothes.
Players wore all sorts of clothes because different equipment gave off different visual effects.
The natives all wore black pants and red shirts.
They also had a rope tied around their wrists. Ye Zichen wasn't sure why they did that, but he guessed that they wanted to use it to differentiate between players and natives.
As for why they wanted to differentiate so clearly …
Ye Zichen wasn't too sure what they were planning.
Not long after they entered the tavern …
Ye Zichen felt several gazes look towards them, all of which came from the natives.
"Hey, don't …"
White Phoenix, who had been yelling, also felt that the atmosphere wasn't quite right after they entered the tavern. She swallowed her words and scanned the faces of the people in the tavern with squinted eyes.
To her surprise …
Under Bai Feng's stare, the natives all lowered their heads and continued to drink and laugh with the people at the same table as if nothing had happened.
"Be careful, I feel like there's a problem."
White Phoenix sent Ye Zichen a private message in the game.
"I know," Ye Zichen replied. "These natives feel really weird. They seem to be purposely staring at us players."
"That's right," White Phoenix replied.
The two of them conversed in silence, then walked up to the second floor of the tavern under the watchful eyes of the natives.
After they went upstairs …
The natives downstairs all let out a sigh of relief.
"That girl's eyes are so sharp. I was so scared that I almost peed my pants. F * ck."
"That woman's eyes are really murderous. She's definitely someone with hands covered in blood."
"Let's wait until she's not here when we make our move."
"We'll think about it when the time comes. The village chief told us to keep an eye on these natives. We'll just report them when we get back."
The natives downstairs discussed amongst themselves. Many of them looked towards the second floor with a hint of wariness in their eyes.
They were wary of White Phoenix.
That pair of eyes that made people feel as if they had fallen into a cave of ice looked at them as if he was looking at a group of dead people.
Compared to the first floor, the second floor seemed to have become the players' home court.
"Why are those NPCs staring at us?"
"I don't know. It's like I owe them money."
"How uncomfortable!"
As the players whispered to each other, Ye Zichen also frowned.
"Looks like we're not the only ones being watched."
"Of course." Bai Feng smiled, "What right do we have to make so many natives wait in the tavern?"
"What exactly do they want?" Ye Zichen squinted his eyes.
"Nothing good." Bai Feng frowned. "Big Sister Wen Li's control over them should have been lifted. Otherwise, they wouldn't be like this."
"Eye technique?"
"The natives here regard you as Gods because of Big Sister Wen Li's Eye Technique, which is also a kind of Illusion Technique. It allows people to live in the real world, but in their hearts, they worship you as gods, "Bai Feng said.
"Control the entire 2nd Universe?"
"Yes!"
"Damn!"
The 2nd and 1st universe both had 3,080 universe countries, and it was possible that the number of natives was much less than the 1st universe.
It could cast illusions on the entire universe.
Ye Zichen didn't even dare imagine such a method.
"Wait, why us? What about you?"
"I am God!" Bai Feng glared at her. "When Big Sister Wen Li cast the eye technique, I was there too. We are the gods in their hearts."
"But they didn't recognize you, God."
"Because I had a pimple on my face that day, so I had to wear a veil." Bai Feng frowned. "Can't I?"
"… Alright …"
"Logically speaking, the Pupillary Technique can't be undone. The only way to undo it is for the caster to give up, or for someone more powerful than the caster to appear among the people being controlled," Bai Feng said, rubbing her chin. "There's no way someone more ruthless than Big Sister Wen Li can be born here."
Suddenly, Bai Feng let out a long sigh and muttered to herself.
"Don't tell me he's drunk."
"What did you just say?" Ye Zichen didn't catch Bai Feng's whisper.
"It's nothing."
Bai Feng shook her head. It would have been fine if Wen Li had solved it herself, but if not …
He had to contact Big Sister Wen Li as soon as possible.
"What did you come here for?" asked Bai Feng.
"Your Excellency, this …" All of a sudden, Ata emerged from the tavern and waved his hand with a sly smile.
"I'm looking for him."
Ye Zichen smiled at Bai Feng, then walked over to Ata with a sullen expression.
"Your Excellency," Ata grinned.
Ata grinned. At his table, there were four stern-looking men and an old man with white sideburns.
"These are …"
"They are the experts I found for you," Ata grinned. "Let me introduce you. This is Han Qing, Master Han. I specially invited him from another village. He's a Star Level expert."
"Star Level!"
Ye Zichen looked at the elder in shock.
It should be pointed out that only Level 500 and above was a Star Level.
This elder was actually an expert above Level 500.
"Hello."
"Hello," the elder still maintained the airs of an expert and nodded at Ye Zichen.
"This is Elder Han's prized student, Xin Zhengnan. He's at the eighth stage," Ata pointed at the sunny youth.
"Hello."
"Hello, hello." The youth was much friendlier than the elder. He grabbed Ye Zichen's arm and swung it back and forth. "I've heard Senior Ata talk about you many times. I finally get to meet you. Please take care of me in the future."
"No problem," Ye Zichen nodded.
"Zhengnan, don't speak so soon. We haven't agreed to work for him yet," frowned Han Qing.
"Ah."
The youth nodded and sat down. Ata laughed, then pointed at the other two.
One had a square face, while the other had no eyebrows.
They were both experts at the seventh stage.
These people were considered the cream of the crop among the players and NPCs at the moment.
That was especially true of the Star Level elder.
Having him was worth more than an army of ten thousand.
"Everyone, I'm Ye …. I'm Future," Ye Zichen almost said his real name, so he hurriedly corrected himself. Then he looked at Bai Feng. "This is my good friend, and also my partner in establishing a faction, Bai Feng."
With that, Ye Zichen patted Bai Feng on the shoulder.
"Let's get to know each other. Give me some face."
"Ah …. Hello, I'm Bai Feng. Nice to meet you," with that, Bai Feng busied herself with something else, as if she was absent-minded.
Little did Ye Zichen know, Han Qing saw everything.
When he saw Bai Feng's attitude, he couldn't help but snort coldly.
