It was winter break, so Ye Ci and Bai Mo couldn't find an excuse to stay in their rented apartment. Thus, the two of them packed up and returned to Ye Nantian's house. A month ago, Ye Ci had already exchanged 500,000 real world dollars for her parents. Although it was still far from enough to buy a bigger house, it was more than enough for them to live a better life.
Fortunately, there was an empty room in their house. Ye Ci returned to her own room, while Bai Mo stayed in the guest room. The two of them went online after dinner.
The guild members warmly welcomed Ye Ci's arrival in the guild channel. They had been very busy recently. They would usually train their skills in dungeons, and after dungeons, they would train their skills in the arena. Even the Life Skill players would sometimes join in.
When Ye Ci arrived at the guild encampment, she happened to encounter such a battle. Pea Cake was waving a strange item in his hand as he circled around the arena with a Ranger. From the looks of it, Pea Cake wasn't defeated, and the Ranger didn't have much of an advantage.
Ye Ci's interest was piqued by the item in his hand, but it was moving too fast for her to see what it was. After a while, the Ranger stopped fighting, "Pea Cake, you're too shameless! You don't allow us to use skills, and you want us to fight hand-to-hand with you, but you're holding a weapon! You can't bully us like this! "
Pea Cake chuckled, "Aren't I just doing an experiment for the development of the guild?" He raised his head and saw Ye Ci standing below the arena. He smiled at Ye Ci and said, "Guild leader, do you want to fight with me? If you win, I'll give you two of the treasures I just made."
Ye Ci smiled and jumped onto the arena amidst the laughter of the crowd, "You're saying that we can't use weapons?"
"Yes, yes."
"We can't use skills?"
"Yes, we can only fight hand-to-hand." Pea Cake's shameless smile made people want to beat him up.
Ye Ci nodded. "No problem."
"Are you ready?" Ideal Height 1.7m stood on a tall table with a flag in her hand. "Begin!"
Pea Cake had probably fought a few matches with other players before, and he had gained some experience. Just as Ideal Height 1.7m shouted the start of the match, the item in his hand flew towards Ye Ci with a whoosh. Ye Ci's reflexes were quick. She dodged the item with a slight tilt of her body. While moving quickly, she vaguely saw that there was a hook on the creature's head, but she still couldn't figure out what it was.
After dodging a few more times, Ye Ci showed no signs of attacking. Pea Cake chuckled, "Guild Leader, you're right. A Hunter's strength lies beyond 8 yards. Look, you can't even touch me without a weapon."
Ye Ci was amused by his words. She decided to teach this guy a lesson. "Pea Cake, have you heard of the saying that an arrogant soldier is bound to lose?"
"I've heard of it." Pea Cake nodded, but before he could say anything, Ye Ci whistled, and a pitch-black Swift Panther appeared out of thin air. With a loud roar, it charged at Pea Cake.
Pea Cake was only flaunting his power in front of his own people. If he really encountered a PK, he would immediately panic. Now that he saw a leopard charging towards him, he was so frightened that he screamed and turned to run. But before the battle ended, he couldn't leave the arena. Just like that, Ol 'Three pinned him to the ground and trampled on him.
"I admit defeat, I admit defeat!" Pea Cake was probably terrified by Ol 'Three's close contact with him, and he quickly surrendered. Ye Ci didn't make things difficult for him. She called Ol 'Three back.
"Guild Leader, you're shameless!" Pea Cake crawled up from the ground in a sorry state. His guild members smiled kindly at him. He tidied his clothes and crawled down the arena with a sullen face, "We agreed on a melee battle. Guild Leader, you're bullying a Life Profession player."
"Ol 'Three is meat too." Ye Ci narrowed her eyes.
Pea Cake finally stood at the foot of the arena. He looked at Ol 'Three who was stretching lazily in front of Ye Ci's feet. He had never leveled up before, let alone come into contact with such a creature. Fate was a virtual reality game. Everything was realistic. Pea Cake almost thought that he was going to be eaten by Ol 'Three.
"For you!" Pea Cake threw the item in his hand to Ye Ci as he did not dare to approach Ye Ci, "I just made it."
Ye Ci caught the item that Pea Cake threw at her. It was a Three-headed Cat Claw. It was a good tool for climbing walls. However, Pea Cake's Engineering level was not high enough. He had to consider the durability of the item.
Pea Cake was aware of this as well. He said to Ye Ci, "I learned this blueprint when the guild went to the Frosty Wasteland. But I'm only a Beginner Engineer. The items that I made were not very good. I don't dare to give it to others. What if it breaks while climbing a wall? I'll let you test it out. "He spoke as if he was certain that Ye Ci would not die.
Ye Ci raised her head and looked at the crowd. They were all looking at her with approval. It seemed that they had no objections to Pea Cake's words. Ye Ci frowned, "Say, do you guys really think that I won't die from the fall?"
She felt that she was an idiot. She shouldn't have asked such a stupid question. Everyone nodded in unison. Ye Ci frowned even more.
After a rare moment of relaxation, the guild members went back to what they were supposed to do. Ye Ci also went to Red Lake City to complete her daily quests. When it was time to submit the quest, Ye Ci was surprised to see a rarely seen NPC standing beside the City Administrator — — the Mayor.
He wriggled his fat body, wiping away the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief. He immediately "rolled" his bulbous body towards Ye Ci the moment she entered the room. "Aiya, aiya, Gongzi You is back. Look, it's been a long time. I've missed you!"
Ye Ci looked at the Mayor's beady eyes and greasy smile and nodded indifferently, "What's the matter?" Ye Ci did not wait for him and went to submit the quest. The Mayor followed behind Ye Ci and tried to flatter her. In the end, Ye Ci was annoyed, "What's the matter? Nothing, I still have something to do! "
"Yes, yes, yes!" The Mayor immediately wiped the sweat on his forehead, "The City Administrator has a request."
The City Administrator of Red Lake City, Sha 'gar, was even more mysterious than Van der Loof. In her previous life, Ye Ci had only seen a large portrait of the NPC in Red Lake City's City Hall. She had never seen this NPC before. It was said that the NPC had always lived in the tall castle in Red Lake City and did not like to see strangers. Of course, there were also people who said that the NPC was dead, and that was why no one had seen him before. If there was a ranking of the top ten mysterious NPCs in Fate, Sha 'gar would definitely be one of them.
It was because of this reason that when the Mayor of Red Lake City told Ye Ci that Sha 'gar wanted to see her, she was stunned for a moment. She then followed the Mayor to the mysterious and tall castle in the east of Red Lake City.
There were many NPC servants in the castle. Ye Ci secretly observed the levels of these servants. They were all level 100 Elite monsters. The guards in the castle were even higher level. They were all level 120 Elite monsters.
In the huge library of the castle, Ye Ci saw Sha 'gar. The City Administrator was not as muscular as Van der Loof. Instead, he was skinny. He was sitting in front of a desk, reading a book. After hearing the Mayor's report, he raised his head and looked at Ye Ci with a gentle smile, "So you're Gongzi You!"
"Greetings, City Administrator. It's an honor to meet you." Ye Ci bowed respectfully. After all, this person was her immediate superior.
"I received a letter from Van der Loof. He expressed his utmost respect and gratitude to you in the letter. I am very gratified. Van der Loof was my lifelong friend. When he was threatened by the Naga's minions, I am very happy that the citizens of Red Lake City helped him! " With that, Sha 'gar stood up and nodded at Ye Ci, "I have decided to commend you for your good deed."
Although it had been more than a month since the incident in Oasis City, and the commendation came a little late, Ye Ci was still very happy. It would be a waste if she did not accept something that was given to her for free.
Sha 'gar was very generous. He rewarded Ye Ci with a Prestige Pack. When she opened the Prestige Pack, her Prestige in Red Lake City was raised to Respected. Although it was not as high as the Respect in Oasis City, Ye Ci was so happy that she could not stop smiling.
After the reward was given, Sha 'gar did not want to talk to Ye Ci anymore. He had the Mayor lead Ye Ci out of the castle. When they returned to the City Hall, Ye Ci immediately made a request to the Mayor to buy a piece of land.
In Fate, once a player became a citizen of a city and their Prestige reached Respected, they would be able to buy a piece of land in the city. Due to the stringent requirements for purchasing a piece of land, players from the four continents had yet to purchase a piece of land.
"Which piece of land do you want to buy?" The Mayor of Red Lake City was a lackey, and Ye Ci did not like him. However, he was very efficient and diligent. Ye Ci could only reassure herself that no one was perfect.
Looking at the huge sand table in front of the Mayor of Red Lake City, Ye Ci's eyes wandered towards the west side of the city. The west side of the city was the other side of Red Lake City. Most of the residents there were civilians and inconspicuous NPCs. Only soldiers patrolling the area would visit the west side of the city.
"Don't choose the west side of the city. There are no good locations there. Look, look, you should choose the east side of the city. The City Hall is here, and so are the shops.
