Speaking of quilts, Tang Hao suddenly remembered that when DNF and FZ worked together, there was indeed a Nerdy King pet. He still had one in his game warehouse. It would be great if it could become a reality. Anyway, he was not short of money now. With 800 million yuan in savings, he could afford to raise hundreds of Nerdy Kings.
If he went to the Moon World in the future, maybe he could try to catch one …
Of course, Nerdy Kings were not Pokemon. It was not something that he could catch whenever he wanted. He had to look at what was in front of him.
Along the way, Tang Hao thought for a long time. He felt that Celia was the most suitable as his pet. She was pleasing to the eye and cool. She could be his pet during the day and his wife at night. Wouldn't it be great!
Unfortunately, this could only be imagined in his mind. The practicability was infinitely close to zero.
Well, Otaku were best at imagination and imagination anyway.
"The village I live in is just ahead."
Tang Hao was thinking about who else would be more suitable to be his pet other than Celia. For example, someone from the Demon Realm, someone from the Celestial Realm, someone from the Virtual Ancestor, or even the female Ghostblade … Anyway, all of these characters had been pets in the game, so they should be usable, right? If it was Devil, it would be best to put on the pixel snowman set. As for Totoro or Yuusu, it didn't matter. He liked both classes anyway. Of course, it would be best if both of them came together.
If it was Ghostblade, of course, he would choose Zong Mei. She was beautiful, handsome, and had the attributes of a wife.
As for male pets, there was no need. Just like how he played games, he only played female characters. It was the same for drawing cards in FGO. For male cards, he would give them a call symbol to show respect. For female cards, he would draw them to match his sexual preference. True love was level 100. After all, it was a game to find a husband and wife. Saving people was just a side effect.
Thinking about this, pets seemed to be no longer an unattainable dream. Instead, they were right in front of him, and he could choose them at will. Then …
Celia's voice suddenly sounded, pulling him back from his fantasy to reality.
Looking up, he saw a simple village in front of him. Kirito and Asuna had already followed Celia. Both of them had their pets on their shoulders, just like the Pikachu on Xiaozhi's back. They were obviously showing off, right?
The real world was indeed a terrible game!
"Celia, you're finally back. You've been missing for two days. I was so worried."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Linus. I made you worry. I ran into some trouble in the forest, and these adventurers saved me. "
"Oh, adventurers. The Arad Continent has been getting more and more chaotic lately, and there are more adventurers. Anyway, thank you in advance. I'm too busy and can't leave. I've asked a few adventurers to look for Celia in the forest, but it seems like you didn't find her."
The person who spoke to Sally was a burly uncle called Linus. According to Celia's introduction, he used to be an adventurer. After retiring, he stayed in the village and became a blacksmith. He usually took care of Celia and was probably her only relative.
Perhaps it was because they had saved Celia, but Linus was very enthusiastic. He immediately invited everyone into the house to rest. The chatterbox of a middle-aged man was very obvious. Once he opened his mouth, he couldn't stop talking.
"So that's what happened. But, Celia, why do you have the ability to purify the large magic array?" Linus asked in confusion after listening to Celia's experience in the past two days.
"I don't know. Maybe it's because I read a lot of books."
"This has nothing to do with reading …" Tang Hao said, but he didn't intend to say it. Revealing Celia's identity wouldn't bring him any benefits. Instead, he might get into trouble.
"By the way, Uncle Linus." Suddenly, Celia raised her head. "I plan to go to Sky City."
"Sky City?" Linus frowned. "Why do you want to go to that place?"
"Because of the large magic array … The large magic array in Grantham was stolen by the Bone Prison Breath. Fortunately, the team leader and Binoche helped us, so we survived. However, no one can guarantee that the large magic array in other places won't be damaged. So, I want to go and have a look. At least before the transfer phenomenon causes more tragedies, I can do what I can."
"It's good that you have this idea. However, since the transfer phenomenon happened, the entire Arad Continent has become very bad. Not only the Sky City, but also the empire …" Linus suddenly couldn't continue. Looking at Celia's calm expression, he sighed inwardly.
Although this girl looked soft and weak, she was very assertive. Once she made up her mind, even nine bulls couldn't pull her back.
Besides, although he hoped that Celia could stay in the village and be safe all the time so that he wouldn't let down the person who entrusted her to him, the child would eventually grow up and leave home.
"Well, since you have made up your mind, then go ahead. However, pay attention to your own safety. The outside world is not like the village. There are many bad guys out there."
Hearing his child-like tone, Celia couldn't help but smile. Then, she looked at Tang Hao and nodded. "Don't worry, Uncle Linus. Also, the team leader and the others are with us. Nothing will happen."
"That's true. When do you plan to leave?"
"The sooner, the better." Tang Hao said. Although it had nothing to do with the mission, for Kirito and Asuna, time was still very tight.
"Hahaha, young people are really decisive." Linus was surprised for a moment and then stood up with a smile.
"Uncle Linus?" Celia looked at him in confusion.
Linus explained, "You probably don't know, but recently, in order to investigate the Sky City, the empire has sent troops to the Duchy and blocked all the entrances to Hendon Myre. If you don't have a pass, you won't be able to go anywhere. So, I have to ask the village leader for a pass."
"The empire's army is stationed in the Duchy?" Tang Hao was startled. "Even if the empire's army came to the Duchy, this is still the Duchy's territory. Why should the empire's army be guarding the entrances?"
"Because the empire is more than ten times stronger than the Duchy."
Tang Hao: "…"
Well, that was indeed an unassailable reason.
"Oh, right!" As soon as they walked to the door, Linus suddenly patted his head. "In addition to the pass, we also need to prepare a carriage. But it's already night time, and we don't have much time … Leader, can you come with me?"
"Of course, no problem." Tang Hao smiled and followed Linus.
"Then, Celia, you take care of the other two guests," Linus said and then left the house with Tang Hao.
Not long after they left the house, Tang Hao was the first to speak. "Uncle Linus, is there anything you want to tell me?"
Linus looked at him in surprise. "It seems that you've already guessed it?"
Tang Hao smiled but did not say anything. Even if it was night time, he could not help with preparing the carriage. Linus obviously had something else to tell him.
Linus did not beat around the bush. "Actually, it's for Celia. As I said just now, the situation in the Duchy is a little tense, especially in Sky City. With the intervention of the empire's army, it's become very chaotic. I'm a little worried about Celia going out at this time, so I have something to tell you. "
"Go ahead."
"First of all, after you arrive at Hendon Myre, you can go to the Moonlight Tavern and find a woman named Shusia. She's the boss there and has a lot of connections. You can ask her to solve any problems."
"Secondly, as you can probably tell, Celia isn't my real family. A few years ago, someone suddenly handed her to me and asked me to take care of her. At that time, she seemed to have lost her memory, so I told her that she was traumatized by the death of her parents. That's why she can't remember the past. I'm her uncle … But after so many years, I've already treated her as my own daughter. I hope you can protect her for me. "
So that's what happened …
Tang Hao suddenly understood.
Actually, he did not understand why Celia would live in the Elven Defense Line. After she lost her memory as an elf, it was Shusia who brought her out of Grand Woods. She was also the only person who knew Celia's real identity. Moreover, they were of the same race. So, why did Celia not live with Shusia?
But now, it seemed that this was obviously Shusia's intention. In order to let Celia live a peaceful life, she handed her over to Linus.
So, what's the relationship between Shusia and Linus?
Suddenly, Tang Hao's curiosity was aroused. He secretly looked at Linus and found that there was a hint of tenderness in his eyes.
Ah!
I got it!
Noticing that Linus was looking at him, Tang Hao quickly coughed and said, "Erm, why are you telling me such an important thing? Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Celia? "
"Kid, aren't you asking the obvious?" Linus patted him on the back and smiled. "Don't think that I don't know. I've known for a long time. You … like Celia, right?"
"Huh?"
Tang Hao was stunned. He had just defeated Linus, and now, Linus had arranged a trap for him. Was this retribution?
Also, which eye of yours knew that I like Celia?
Well, it wasn't that he didn't like her. After all, all men liked 'young' and beautiful girls.
Seeing that Tang Hao was stunned, Linus thought that he had hit the nail on the head. He immediately put on an experienced expression and said, "I was young too, and I know this kind of thing very well. Besides, if you don't like Celia, why are you helping her at all costs? You're willing to risk your life to protect Celia and entrust her to you. I'm also relieved. "
Although he felt that there was something wrong with Linus's reading ability, when he thought that this matter would only make things worse, Tang Hao simply nodded and said, "You, you're right. I like Celia … and everyone else."
That wasn't wrong. The wives of the paper people were all his wives.
He would treat them all the same.
