I Live on the Land in Global Games

Chapter 498: 481: Angels and SuccubiChapter 498: Chapter 481: Angels and Succubi

Mu Ying finished patrolling the forest; it was still early, so her return trip was more leisurely.

Gungun carried her as she practiced her magic, which had recently progressed to mastering her ninth Five Ring Spell – controlling wind direction.

“Dinglingling~” The Dingling Flower in the Space Ring chimed.

The natural power she had just summoned dissipated, and the rustling of the grass and trees settled down.

Mu Ying directed her consciousness into the Space Ring and took out the quivering Dingling Flower, on which hung a tag with the name Edwin.

She tapped the flower bud, and an excited voice came through.

“We have a new member joining the Trial Takers Trading Fair! Vinica has just arrived in the territory. I met her, and she’s really keen on joining our group. Can I add her to the chat now? When can we all get together again?”

This was good news. Mu Ying’s face lit up with joy. Thinking about her recent schedule, she quickly made time, “Add her, and let’s meet in three days, at ten in the morning. Same place as always.”

After ending the call with the Dingling Flower, Mu Ying looked forward to meeting Vinica. She had never met a professional Bard before, her understanding limited to the Profession introduction she’d read when choosing her own, as well as the gossip on the World Forum.

There were even fewer Bards than Druids, and though they too had Spell Casting Abilities, their Spell Casting Attribute was Charm.

Furthermore, Bards cast spells through music, which tended toward enchantment and illusions. They had decent survival skills but poor combat abilities. Only players with high Charm who loved music would consider this Profession.

With that much Charm, why not become a Magician? Who would choose to be a Bard?

Before the apocalypse, Mu Ying didn’t pay much attention to the arts, so she hadn’t seen any video material of the famous young Nordic singer, Vinica.

But after the apocalypse, forum users referred to her as a “siren kissed by an angel,” where siren denoted a highly alluring demon.

The stark contrast between angel and siren as descriptors for the same person piqued the curiosity of those, including Mu Ying, who had never seen her.

Although Mu Ying herself was also quite attractive, with hair and eyes that were no longer human-like, the nicknames given to her on the World Forum related to beauty were forgettable after just one glance. Vinica, on the other hand, obviously had far more flattering nicknames, suggesting she was indeed a beauty.

Mu Ying flipped through the World Forum and, sure enough, found posts about Vinica’s arrival at Qingshan City.

She came from the northwest, traversing mountains and rivers for a long time before reaching the Xia Country Region, eventually taking a Transmission Array from Autumn Sand Camp in the northwest directly to Qingshan City.

She wasn’t alone; rumor had it she traveled in a horse-drawn carriage accompanied by several followers, and at each camp, they would perform.

“Hmm?” As she kept scrolling, she saw a new post that wasn’t yet boosted to prominence.

“Out of seclusion, planning to visit Qingshan City to relax for a few days. — Maz”

Given the rapid rise in popularity of the post, it had to be from the person themselves.

At this rate, she might meet another new friend at the gathering in three days.

Of the eight Trialists from Deep Blue Star, only the ever-mysterious Atom and another player who had yet to reveal their Trialist identity remained unaccounted for.

Considering the Transmission Array network had been functional for quite some time now, anyone with reasonable strength or decent savings should easily make it to Qingshan City.

Putting aside the unnamed Trialist, could Atom have already visited Qingshan City?

The test house must still be quite tempting, and now that she had made the rankings on the test monument anonymous, he shouldn’t have any more concerns.

Once back in her territory, she accessed the Territory Internal Network and searched the Local People’s data for the name Atom.

A profile did pop up.

[Name: Atom]

[Race: Human]

[Profession: Level 8 Wanderer]

A level 8 Wanderer, so this is the true Atom!

He really has arrived!

When Mu Ying looked at the time he logged into the Territory Internal Network, my goodness, he came before the year ended.

Why didn’t she think to search for him earlier?

Mu Ying could only conclude that Atom’s presence was so low that she had forgotten all about it. If it weren’t for Maz’s post today, she wouldn’t have remembered him.

Atom’s account on the internal network was as clean as if it had never been used—no friends added, not a single post made, just some transaction records and rental information, and there was a queue number for a test at the test house.

The test house is too popular, and it won’t be his turn for a while, so he should still be in the territory now!

Mu Ying was both happy and a bit troubled, how could she make him come to her without revealing that she had found out about him in advance?

After thinking for a while, she decided to post on both the World Forum and the Territory Internal Network. But before posting, she thought she should give a heads-up in the Trial Takers Trading Fair group.

Upon opening the group chat, all the messages were welcoming Vinica.

Mu Ying sent a welcome message first, then proceeded to say something else.

Mu Ying: “Today I received some new important information. I plan to share it with you at the gathering. Because of this information, I’ve decided to share all the rules and information about the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial with members for free in the future. When it comes to the trials, maybe it’s better for all of us to stand united.”

After hearing Furris talk about becoming a god today, Mu Ying realized that the stronger Deep Blue Star is, the farther they, the people of Deep Blue Star, can go.

The strength of Divine Power is related to Law, and the strength of Law is not only related to the type of Law but also to the planet itself.

If they want Deep Blue Star to develop better, Source Power is the key.

Where does Source Power come from? Of course, it’s earned by Trialists in the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial.

Thus, Trialists from Deep Blue Star should unite to have better development in the Trial Worlds and earn more Source Power for their Mother Star.

If the Trialists are not strong enough, even if the Mother Star has the potential to give birth to a mid-level god, it may not actually grow to that degree.

That’s why she’s no longer planning to keep the information about the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial she obtained secret. She will share it directly upon joining the group.

Edwin: “Fully support, face up! I just want to hug my past self who traded one question for another!”

Li Luoxia: “Let me laugh for a moment, haha!”

Li Luoxia: “Actually, Mu Ying, it was because you were progressing the fastest. With your information, we avoided a lot of detours.”

Draco: “Agree! I’m also willing to share what I know about the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial. The information I got at the last gathering was very accurate and helped me out a lot. Now I have entered the Second Trial World, and we can have a good talk at this gathering!”

Vinica: “Are the membership benefits this good? Newbie asking for guidance!”

Edwin: “No problem, no problem!”
