"Little master, why are you leaving just like that?"
Just as Ling Chen stepped out of the Dwarf Clan's territory, he was greeted by Qi Yue's confused question.
"Although the Dwarf Clan cannot leave because of their ancestors, you and I can both tell that the Dwarves also want to leave. They are unable to get used to the suffering that they are currently enduring. Especially after eating the flatbread that little master brought, their desire to go to the outside world has become even stronger. To anyone else, the three conditions for the Dwarf Clan to see the light of day are as difficult as ascending to the heavens. Only little master can satisfy them, right? Don't little master know how much wealth it is to be able to control the entire Dwarf Clan? Back then, there were countless clans fighting to enslave the Dwarf Clan. "
"Mm, of course I know the value of the Dwarf Clan. Although in that sort of environment, their abilities have been greatly reduced. However, their talent will never disappear, and is something that other clans cannot compare to. It's just that … "Ling Chen looked at the mountain behind him, then looked towards the Azure Dragon City as he slowly said," But now is not the time, nor should I be the one to do it. There's someone more suitable than me … "
After saying this, Ling Chen did not explain anything to Qi Yue. He turned towards the mountain that the Mountain Giant had transformed into, and yelled, "Mountain Giant, in half a month at the latest, a friend of mine will come here to save the Dwarf Clan that you are protecting. Please do not stop her. I also believe that her aura will not cause you to feel any disgust or resistance."
The low mountain range lay there quietly, without any movement.
… …
Two days later.
After Xiao Qi and Su 'Er left, Yun Meng Xin, who was unwilling to return to the Yun family, could only live by herself. It was only after Mu Bing Yao's injuries had healed that she returned to Yun Meng Xin's place. Only then did Yun Meng Xin have someone to accompany her in the real world. She vaguely knew that Mu Bing Yao had been arranged by Ling Chen to protect her.
In the game world, the Li Financial Group's core building in the prime location of Azure Dragon City had already been completed. She and Li Xiao Xue discussed and planned their ideal future every day. Other than that, another thing that Yun Meng Xin would do every day was to check on the warehouse. This was because before Ling Chen left, he had told her to check on the warehouse often. He would send her some things or messages from time to time. Thus, for the past few days, she had been going to the warehouse at least three times a day without stopping. She had received many items from Ling Chen, and every one of them was extremely valuable. Not to mention the exquisite equipment, the few drops of water from the Elven Fountain were so powerful that they broke the balance.
This morning, the first thing she did after entering the game was to head straight to the Azure Dragon City's warehouse.
Today, she received more things than any other day.
There were 20 or so pieces of equipment, a few teleport scrolls, a tightly rolled up blueprint, a hand-drawn blueprint, a golden plate, two pebbles, a strange red metal that weighed tens of kilograms, and even a normal-looking pan … there were many, many things. Finally, there was a long piece of paper, which recorded a lot of information.
These were all …
Yun Meng Xin first picked up the golden plate, because gold was the most eye-catching. When she saw the name of the plate, her slender hand suddenly trembled …
"This … this is …"
Yun Meng Xin's calm heart suddenly began to churn violently. She stared blankly for a long time, then confirmed that what she had seen and received wasn't an illusion. She immediately put away the plate, and quickly looked through everything that Ling Chen had given her. Every time she looked at an item, her expression would become more and more excited, until she was so shocked that she couldn't control herself.
Finally, she picked up the long piece of paper. On it was the message that Ling Chen had written for her. It was very, very long … Yun Meng Xin read it word by word, and it took her a very, very long time to finish reading it, and another very, very long time to digest it. She closed the paper, closed her eyes, and slowly calmed her turbulent heart.
"There are actually such incredible things in this world, and so many magical things …"
"Ling Tian, although I don't know what you're looking for, and where you are right now, but you haven't given up on your Heart's Dreams, and you haven't given up on us … that's great …"
"This time, you've given me a miraculous opportunity. For myself, for you, for Qi Qi, for Su Su, for Bing Yao, for Shui Ruo, for Tian Tian … I definitely … definitely won't allow myself to fail!! "
After returning to the Li family financial group's central building, Yun Meng Xin asked Li Xiao Xue for a long vacation. As for the reason, she didn't say it, and Li Xiao Xue didn't ask again.
After leaving the Li family financial group's central building, Yun Meng Xin directly went to the Azure Dragon City's Library Hall.
The Azure Dragon City's Library Hall was incredibly large. Just the area it took up was thousands of square metres, and there were countless books of all sorts. However, despite the size of the Library Hall, it was very cold and cheerless. Most of the people here were NPCs, and there were almost no players. There were countless books in the real world, and even if you spent your entire life, you wouldn't be able to read even one ten-thousandth of them. Who would come to the virtual world to read books from the virtual world?
Yun Meng Xin walked to the innermost corner of the Library Hall, and picked up the 1 metre tall, half a metre wide, and 30 centimetres thick book with great difficulty. The book's cover was engraved with large golden words – 'Forgotten Continent Chronicles'.
She started reading from the very first page, and was incredibly focused. On the first day, she read from dawn to dusk, as if she was intoxicated by the book. She forgot about time and even forgot to eat. At midnight, Mu Bing Yao called for her to log off, but she quickly returned and opened the 'Forgotten Continent Chronicles' again … the second day, the third day, the fourth day …
In the next ten days, Yun Meng Xin spent all of her time in the virtual world in the Library Hall, not leaving at all. She was still reading the same book.
Ten days later.
After leaving the Library Hall, Yun Meng Xin realised that ten days had passed. Of course, ten days and ten nights wasn't enough for her to finish reading the entire 'Forgotten Continent Chronicles'. She read from the demi-god era to the thousand years after the Fairy Clan went into hiding. As for the later parts, she carefully looked at the outlines. When she closed her eyes, the information she wanted to remember would immediately appear in her mind. Not only was she devastatingly beautiful, but she also had an enviable intelligence.
After returning to the Li family financial group's central building, Yun Meng Xin met with Li Xiao Xue. Seeing her appear, Li Xiao Xue asked in confusion, "Meng Xin, according to what I know, you've been in the Library Hall for the past 10 days. Can you tell me why you've been there?"
She knew that Yun Meng Xin wouldn't spend so much time doing something like this for no reason. Facing her question, Yun Meng Xin didn't answer, and instead said, "Xiao Xue, I want to borrow some money from you."
"Oh?" Li Xiao Xue raised her eyebrows.
"70 billion!" Yun Meng Xin calmly said, "Only you can lend me this amount of money in such a short period of time. I believe that you have the ability to spend so much money at once. "
"70 billion?" Li Xiao Xue frowned. Even to the Li family financial group, this wasn't a small amount. She looked at Yun Meng Xin and said calmly, "I can indeed command 70 billion dollars, or even many times that amount. However, I need a reason to do so. You should know that our Li Family's greatest protection in the virtual world, the Skyfall Dynasty, is only given 2 billion gold every half a year. Moreover, with the Skyfall Dynasty's strength and reputation, it's definitely worth it. As for … Meng Xin, I've always admired you, but I, the Loulan Queen, am a businesswoman first and foremost. I don't do business that makes me lose money, so I need a good reason. "
Yun Meng Xin smiled, "Xiao Xue, don't worry. If I didn't have a good reason, why would I ask for so much money from you? However … Xiao Xue, I can only tell you about this reason. I hope that after you see it, no matter if you agree or refuse, you won't tell anyone else about this reason … is that alright? "
"Alright." Li Xiao Xue happily nodded, "Without Meng Xin's permission, I won't tell anyone else about what I'm about to see."
"That's all I need to hear." Yun Meng Xin's words expressed her trust in Li Xiao Xue. She took out a golden token and placed it in front of Li Xiao Xue, "Xiao Xue, look at this."
Li Xiao Xue stared at the golden token, and her eyes widened as she said in shock, "This … This is …"
"That's right," Yun Meng Xin nodded, "This is a City Creation Token! A City Creation Token that only appears in every Region of Glory! It's a token that allows players to create a city … and a main city at that! No matter how strong or how big a guild is, it can only be a tyrant. Whoever obtains the City Creation Token will become the lord of a city, and that person will be the true king! He's the undisputed king of the players! "
Li Xiao Xue felt incredibly shocked. That's right, this was a City Creation Token. However, only one City Creation Token would appear in every Region of Glory, and it was incredibly difficult for it to appear. Most of the time, it wouldn't even appear once. Only Heaven's End grade Bosses had a chance of dropping a City Creation Token! Heaven's End grade … even at the later stages of the game, it was almost impossible for players to defeat a Heaven's End grade Boss. In the past, City Creation Tokens had only appeared after most players had reached max level for a long time.
However, the Mystic Moon world had only been opened for such a short period of time, and she had personally seen a City Creation Token appear! This was simply inconceivable!
"Your reason is indeed quite powerful," Li Xiao Xue said slowly, "However, this reason doesn't seem to be enough. Meng Xin, you should know that a City Creation Token is a double-edged sword. It can give people the power of an Emperor, but at the same time, it can also bring disaster. Have you ever thought about what would happen if you were to be discovered building a city, and how many greedy gazes you would attract … countless people and factions would do everything they could to stop you from building a city. You're all by yourself, so how are you going to resist? Perhaps in the end, your City Creation Token, as well as the money and effort you've invested, will all be for naught. In the best case scenario, even if you build a new city, if you don't have your own faction, reputation, or something to attract players … even if you build it, it will still be a dead city. "
Li Xiao Xue's words hit the nail on the head, and Yun Meng Xin calmly listened until she finished speaking. She smiled and took out a long scroll of paper, "What Xiao Xue said is completely correct, but what if it's like this?"
Li Xiao Xue took the scroll of paper and quickly looked through it. Her expression immediately changed, and she stared at Yun Meng Xin, then lowered her head to look at the words on the scroll. She deeply breathed in, and almost without thinking, she excitedly said, "If all of this can be achieved … then on top of the 70 billion, I'll add another 80 billion! I'll give you 150 billion! If that's not enough, I'll add 200 billion! I'll help you complete it as quickly as possible! The prerequisite is that all of this can be achieved! "
"Alright, it's a deal." Yun Meng Xin stretched out her hand towards Li Xiao Xue, and the 2 snow-white, jade-like hands lightly shook, "Within 5 days, I'll give you an answer … I'm sure you won't be disappointed."
