Shortly after Ye Chen went offline, Dharma returned to the city and idled around with nothing to do. Thus he contacted the Queen of the Night. "Night, let's level together and test out the new skills. We can go for breakfast after going offline."
"Sure." The Queen of the Night was also idle. After the two met up, they headed to a monster map of level 21, Wind-chasing Plains.
"Oh right, Night, what skill book did you obtain after completing the mission?"
Dharma only remembered then that the Queen of the Night should have acquired another skill book from the mission.
"Astral Form, according to the attribute description, I can pass through some types of earth and stone walls, but the specific effect is still unknown."
"Wow, sounds impressive. It would be awesome if you can go through everything, Then any labyrinth related missions would be a breeze." Dharma's eyes sparkled as he heard that, and he couldn't help feeling miserable over the skill book that he hadn't even had time to touch.
The Windchasing Plains refreshed and respawned the Red-skinned Wild Boar. The two found a sparsely populated area and began hunting monsters.
Although they labeled the hunting of monsters under the banner of leveling up, both of them were, in actuality, testing the new skills they learned. The Queen of the Night was just fine. Astral Chain was just a control skill, and there was nothing much to test. After understanding the various data and numbers from using Astral Chains, it was purely the practice of skill proficiency left, but it was different for Dharma. He desperately used the Meteor Arrow Shower over and over again. He watched arrows after arrows shot into the sky, bursting into a shower of arrows and raining down, causing massive damage to the surrounding monsters. At this scene, he couldn't help but burst into uncontrollable laughter.
As they were hunting monsters, they were also closely watching their surroundings. Although the two specially chose a remote place where there were not too many monsters, as there were many new players in the game, occasionally some players will still pass by. Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened.
But this tranquility did not last forever. After the two hunted for more than half an hour, the shadows of several Assassins stealthily flashed behind them!
...
"He's here! He's here! That guy is Limitless Love! He does have a slight bit of charisma and charm to him." Hidden behind a tree, Purple Olive studied a male player in the middle of a team in the distance, and her phoenix-like eyes shone slightly.
Although she temporarily was still unable to persuade the Queen of the Night, this did not hinder Purple Olive from seeking a path to fame. As for the fastest way to become famous, she already had a clear idea.
This Limitless Love in front of her was also a shining star in the Oriental Region. This guy had continuously changed female companions in the game. Every time the woman changed, she would be incredibly eye-catching. As time passed, every time this guy swapped his female partner, it would garner many people's attention. On the forum, someone had specifically evaluated each of his female companions. Some female players who had a relationship with this guy also became famous because of this.
As long as she managed to attract this guy's attention and appeared beside him several times, she might be able to become a hit after attracting the attention of other players!
He's nearing!
Okay, act according to plan!
"Possession of the Saintess!" Purple Olive immediately underwent an Ultraman-like transformation, and then a Holy Bullet struck a monster not far away. After the monster rushed over and knocked out most of her HP, she pretended to be wounded and pretended to be chased by the monster out of the woods!
The timing of the Purple Olive could be said to be very accurate. Limitless Love and his team were just advancing towards this side, slightly more than ten meters away from Purple Olive. As long as one's eyes weren't blind, they could definitely see what was happening in front.
Limitless Love was, of course, not blind. He glanced at the saint-like woman who appeared in front of him, and his eyes suddenly lit up!
"Quick! Quickly save her, don't just stand there!" Limitless Love rapidly shouted out commands to the several people around him. They swarmed forward like a hive of bees, killing the monster in two or three decisive blows.
"Beauty, my name is Limitless Love, but you can just call me Limitless. Are you okay?" Limitless Love acted like a gentleman as he approached Purple Olive, and asked with great concern. Had Purple Olive not researched the glorious past of this guy beforehand, she would certainly not be able to tell that this guy was actually a flirtatious playboy who wanted to toy with women's hearts.
However, the plan went smoothly!
Seeing the appearance of Limitless Love, Purple Olive couldn't help feeling a little excited. The plan was already half successful!
"It's okay, thank you for your help. Or else I'll be in grave danger." Purple Olive hurriedly thanked him, her face blushed crimson, and Limitless Love was stunned by the enchanting visage.
"What's there to thank me for? I don't know if you can tell me your name so that I can add a new friend. If you face any trouble in the future, please come to look for me!" Limitless Love was truly glib with his words.
It's here! Purple Olive gleefully rejoiced in her heart.
"Of course. My name is Purple Olive." Suppressing her fervently-beating heart, Purple Olive reported her name. This will be her first step towards success!
"Purple Olive? Limitless Love froze before carefully scrutinizing Purple Olive's face, which was covered by a thin, silver veil.
"It's indeed her!" Several people around him nodded and confirmed.
...
Ye Chen had planned to take the time to go online during the day, but he just happened to kill the NPC and loot the treasure. Recalling Solia's words, under the circumstances where it was impossible to determine which NPC was a Holy Believer, it was dangerous to come into contact with any NPC. Hence, he simply decided to not go online during the day.
After all, he had to install the indoor monitoring equipment during the day. Moreover, for the last two months, if he hadn't been working, he would be immersed in the game every day. He hadn't spent much time playing with two little lolis. Today, he would instead take a vacation and accompany two little lolis to play for the day.
In the morning, after having breakfast with two little lolis for a while, the indoor monitoring equipment was delivered. It took another half an hour for the equipment to be installed according to Ye Chen's requirements.
"Brother Ye, what's the use of this thing?" the two little lolis curiously asked while holding a device for voice chat.
"Hehe. Although Big Brother does not need to work outside in the future, I still have to do some things at home and can't stay with you all the time. You can use this thing to talk to Big Brother, and your Big Brother can also monitor your situation within the room." Ye Chen squatted in front of the two little lolis and smilingly taught them how to use the device.
The two little lolis were obviously far smarter than the average children of the same age. They learned how to use it in a moment, and Ye Chen couldn't help but gulp back his surprise.
"Big Brother isn't working in the afternoon, so we can go to the amusement park to play." Ye Chen solemnly announced a piece of news that left the two little lolis dancing with joy.
After having lunch, Ye Chen dressed up for the two little girls a little, then went to the nearby amusement park with two little lolis, who could not wait to go out.
The two little lolis obviously had never been to an amusement park. After entering the lively main gate, two pairs of curious little black eyes started wandering in all directions.
Seeing this, Ye Chen loosened his purse strings as well. Whenever he saw the two little lolis wanted to play something, he would directly bring them to enjoy the attraction several times.
The two little lolis had a great time, and time passed rapidly. Soon, the evening arrived.
"Okay, let's stop here for today. Big Brother will bring you here next time."
After frenziedly accompanying the two lolis to play for the whole afternoon, even if the sturdily-built Ye Chen could not avoid feeling fatigued. If not for the past two months, where the work on the construction site made his body much more durable, he would have long collapsed from exhaustion. What made Ye Chen even more speechless was that the two little lolis had been playing all afternoon spiritedly, but was still brimming with vitality.
Hearing Ye Chen's words, both Xiaolan and Xiaojing both nodded reluctantly, but they didn't throw a childish tantrum.
Holding the hands of two little lolis, the three of them walked back to the rental flat. But on the road, Ye Chen looked at a notice posted on a notice board, and his footsteps paused slightly.
"What's wrong, Big Brother?" The two little girls looked over with weird expressions on their faces.
"It's nothing, just a Missing Person Notice." Ye Chen shook his head and continued heading back with the two lolis.
"Big Brother, don't lie to me. I know it's looking for us," Xiao Jing whispered suddenly. Xiao Lan just shrugged it off, but Xiao Jing immediately identified the notice at a glance.
"Don't worry, the portraits are composite sketches. It doesn't look quite like you guys." Ye Chen comforted.
The two little lolis heard his words, and both of them nodded slightly. However, the worried expressions on their tiny faces did not alleviate at all.
Back at home, the three of them had dinner. Ye Chen told the two lolis to watch TV, but he went online to check out some information.
Although the picture on the notice was vague, Ye Chen knew that if he were to continue to linger here, it wouldn't take long before someone came knocking on his doors. If he didn't want the two little lolis to be caught, it was better to move house as soon as possible. It was better to go to a remote suburb so that even if the two little lolis occasionally go out to play, no one would notice.
He checked the rental information in the local suburbs, and it didn't take long for Ye Chen to find that there was a perfect house for rent in the suburbs. Judging from the layout of the rooms, the house should be in a rather excellent condition. However, the rent was oddly not very expensive, only requiring two thousand a month.
Although the rent was twice as expensive as the current flat he was renting, Ye Chen had gradually accumulated some funds from the game. He should be able to go to the exchange website immediately once the equipment was sold in the Trade Lobby. If he could sell off ten thousand gold, this was enough to cover the rent for five months. In five months, if he was unable to make more money, he might as well buy a piece of tofu and smash himself to death.
Ye Chen decided to visit the house within the next two days and move over straight away if he judged that it was suitable.
Twisting the voice chatting device into a necklace shape, he hung it around the necks of the two lolis, lest they lose it. Ye Chen then entered the game earlier than usual.
It had only been ten hours since he signed the contract with Solia. It was not feasible to just continue waiting. Ye Chen intended to go online to find Dharma and level for a while.
"Boss, you are finally online!" Seeing that Ye Chen came online, Dharma heaved out a sigh of relief and proceeded to update him on the new proceedings.
