A Genius in a Second to Remember Love? To provide you with exciting novels to read.

Finally, it was the main city of the Night Elves. Lu Li had chosen this place to live in the future.

It might not be as lively and commercial as Stormwind City, but Darnassus was quiet and serene. It was a place that people would want to live in for the rest of their lives.

According to the official introduction of Dawnlight, Darnassus was located at the foot of the magnificent World Tree, Teldrassil. This statement was widely doubted because the city was built on top of the tree. Below the tree was the village of Rutherland, which was connected to the outside world.

'Teldrassil' originated from the Night Elves, and it meant 'Crown of the Earth'.

Teldrassil was located on an island that had been uprooted from the bottom of the sea by a powerful spell of the Druids.

This island floated on the Misty Sea, forever covered in a purple veil of mist. It was almost isolated from the rest of the world. The proud Elves lived here, continuing their ancient and mysterious civilization.

This city was larger than the entire Grey Valley region. From the south to the north of the city, you would need to use a teleportation circle.

Lu Li brought his sister and rushed to this new city almost immediately.

Of course, buying a house in the game was not as expensive as it was in reality. Usually, it only cost tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands at most, and one could own a nice small villa.

It was not that the first buyer would get a 50% discount. The game company was very stingy in this area and would not give any discounts.

He was worried that the small island in the south of the city would be bought by someone.

Darnassus was divided into four districts: North, South, East, and West.

Houses could be bought in each district, and they all had their own characteristics. There were also humans and other races living here, especially the Druids, who probably liked the lush vegetation and lakes of Darnassus the most.

In this tranquil land, the power of nature was so fascinating.

There were lakes and small islands in the city on top of the tree, which showed how vast this city was.

This lake was named Oramis by the Night Elves.

Lake Oramis rippled, and the snowflake-like silver light danced on the surface of the water like a naughty child as the peaks and troughs of the waves fluctuated. Although the water was clear, it was so deep that the bottom could not be seen.

There was an elegant bridge on the shore of the lake. From afar, the crystal-like water flowed under the bridge.

Lake Oramis was the largest body of water in the area, and it extended in all directions throughout the city. There were hundreds of islands of various sizes scattered on its surface, but only one was available for sale to players.

This is a very beautiful island. It wasn't big, but there was a small forest full of maple trees and a beautiful little pond. In the center of the island, under the tall maple tree, there was an exquisite house with white walls and a blue roof. There was even a small moon well on the island.

There was a small bridge that led to the shore, but without the owner's permission, no one could reach the island.

Lu Li had seen this island from afar in his previous life. He had even taken a picture of it and showed it to Lu Xin. The little girl liked it very much. When she was terminally ill, this picture was still placed on the bedside table, which had been touched countless times.

In his previous life, he didn't have the ability to let his sister live in such a place. In this life, Lu Li was determined to get this island.

The Administrative Hall was located in the Cenarion District in the northern part of the city. At this time, aside from NPCs, there were not many players.

"How are you? How can I help you?" Two sentries at the door stopped Lu Li and his sister. It was obvious that this place wasn't as peaceful as it looked.

"I want to buy a place to live." Lu Li pulled his cloak and covered the mark of the Moon Priestess on his shoulder.

There were some ideological conflicts between the Druids and the Priests, and the temporary leader of the Cenarion Circle, Malfurion's student, Archdruid Fandral Staghelm, and the Priestess leader Tyrande did not get along well.

"Go along the corridor and you will see Zora's treehouse. Good luck, my friend." The sentries pointed the way.

Zora was a young female Elf. After Lu Li stated his purpose, he pointed to the bookshelf in the house and said, "This is all the property information. You can choose what you like, but don't waste too much of my time."

"I want to buy the island on the lake." Lu Li did not flip through the bookshelf, but directly reported the island's coordinates.

Zora was stunned. As a real estate developer in the game, she naturally did not need to flip through the information. This Red Leaf Island was the only island that was allowed to be sold because it was remote enough.

Although it was close to the Temple of the Moon Goddess and the Temple Garden. But people would rarely pass by it.

The original intention of the game company was to use it as an easter egg for the opening of the main city. It could be imagined that when you wandered around Darnassus, you accidentally wandered into a body of water, and this island suddenly appeared in your sight.

The maple leaves were as light as fire, the pond was red, and there was a treehouse with white walls and a blue roof. The emerald grass was probably a paradise for many people.

He did not expect that the first land to be sold in Darnassus would be here!

Zora was just an NPC. The system gave her intelligence, but Lu Li did not violate any rules.

"This island can be bought, but it needs …" Zora paused and said, "8,000 gold coins. Are you sure you want to choose this place?"

Because the game had only been open for two months, it was the first day that Darnassus was opened to players.

With the current price level, 8,000 gold coins was already a sky-high price for real estate. At least there were not many people in Dawnlight who were willing to spend so much money for a place to live.

"8,000?" Lu Li actually wanted to ask why it was only 8,000. As far as he knew, the price of this island in his previous life was not 8,000.

This island was discovered a month and a half after Darnassus was opened. The first person to buy it paid a sky-high price of 15,000 gold coins, breaking the record for real estate in Dawnlight.

But he did not lose out. Half a month later, he sold 25,000 gold coins and made a net profit of 10,000.

Two years later, the island that was hailed by the players as the number one mansion in Darnassus had once again changed hands. The boss behind the scenes of Seventh Heaven, Guo Deshou, who was also known as the Prince of Limousines in the real world, bought it for a price of 45 million dollars.

(Here, the author has always set one gold coin to be equal to 100 real world dollars. It can be understood that banks in the real world participate in the circulation of gold coins, and the game company uses various methods to maintain the stability of the financial system. As for the reasonableness, please ignore it.)

Lu Li never thought of selling it for money. He only wanted to make up for a regret in his previous life.

In order to gather the 15,000 gold coins he thought he would need, he exchanged a lot of gold coins from the guild and asked Shen Wansan for a few thousand. His inventory was unprecedentedly rich.

He did not expect the NPC to only ask for 8,000 gold coins, which was more than 800,000 real world dollars.

Two years later, it would be 45 million, but now it was only 800,000.

Of course, he would not have any objections. With a speed that did not allow the system to regret, Lu Li signed all the documents. The owner of this Red Leaf Island was now the Lu siblings. (To be continued.)
