Chapter 68: Sunshine Glory Guild
The rewards for the top student from the Mingu Wind Academy were not many. Besides the top student banner and the champion ring, there were generally two academy rewards and one personal reward from the principal.
However, this time's award ceremony and graduation ceremony took over four hours.
It wasn't until nightfall that the Mingu Wind Academy finished the ceremony and sent the invited guests out of the academy gates.
As Gu Xi was about to leave with Li Xinghui, necromancer Man Xuebo came over.
"Student Gu Xi, I apologize for earlier. I was thinking of the academy. This is a small gift, consider it compensation."
While speaking, Man Xuebo took out a small gift bag.
Man Xuebo didn't care much about what he gave away, as it was actually from the vice president of the Iron Claw Ghost Guild.
He wanted to add another layer of insurance in targeting Gu Xi.
Gu Xi glanced at Man Xuebo, then looked back at Li Xinghui, and finally accepted the gift.
At this moment, Gu Xi didn't check what was inside. He casually put the gift bag in his pocket and left with Li Xinghui.
Outside the Mingu Wind Academy gate, Li Xinghui summoned a bone carriage.
"Get in. I'll take you to the guild first. We'll see the president and then figure out your arrangements."
"Okay." Gu Xi smiled and got into the carriage. When he boarded, he noticed a symbol of the sun rising from behind a mountain on the door.
"This is..."
"Oh, this is our guild's carriage. Unexpected, right? Our guild may not rank high, but our strength isn't bad.
Since we have some time, let me tell you about the guild.
Our guild has exclusive rights to seven game worlds. We guard three, are conquering three, and just acquired one that we are preparing to explore.
The guild also has eleven dungeon gates, six of which are for levels below five. If you want to improve yourself, you can apply to participate in dungeon battles.
Our guild president is level 12, and the two vice presidents are level 11, which is quite good in White Training City.
Generally, newcomers join the novice group first. After reaching level 3, they are assigned to various battle groups based on their profession. But since you're already level 3 and have mastered one of the three divine skills, the president might directly assign you to a battle group for training.
You should perform well to strive to join the Radiant Sun Mage Group."
"The Radiant Sun Mage Group?"
Gu Xi asked curiously.
"Oh, that's the Necromancer Group 1, personally managed by the president. It's composed of the guild's elite necromancers. There's also a Death Knight Group 1, also managed by the president, called the Radiant Knight Group."
Gu Xi looked up at the gloomy sky. White Training City primarily consisted of necromancers and death knights, supplemented by other ghost-related professions. The entire city was always gloomy, and you wouldn't see the sun for 366 days a year.
Naming your battle groups like that for a small guild might be a bit too much.
Li Xinghui noticed Gu Xi's expression, a trace of pride flashed in his eyes. With a "I know what you're thinking, but I'm not going to say it" look, he quickly changed the subject.
This atmosphere actually made Gu Xi relax, and his relationship with Li Xinghui became more harmonious.
After about thirty minutes, the carriage turned from the main street into a small road. After passing through a few gates, Gu Xi noticed the sky seemed to become brighter.
At this moment, Li Xinghui proudly said from the carriage.
"Unexpected, right? This was obtained by the president during one of his random world challenges."
Gu Xi was surprised to see the sky. There was a sun hanging in the sky, and when he reached out from the carriage window, the sunlight fell on his hand with a noticeable warmth.
But Gu Xi quickly felt a hint of coldness beneath the warmth. The sun in the sky shouldn't be that normal.
"As expected of a top student, you noticed so quickly."
Seeing Gu Xi's reaction, Li Xinghui laughed, "Let me tell you, our president's sun is not simple. He once randomly entered the Golden Game World, have you heard of 'Journey to the West'?
Even the minor demons guarding the mountains there are level 15.
Our president couldn't defeat anyone, but he didn't waste the opportunity. He dug at the Zhuolu Spring and unearthed the corpse of a dead Golden Crow.
After bringing it back and completing many tasks, he turned the Golden Crow's corpse into his contract undead.
Now the Golden Crow is always flying in the sky. I dare say, only our Sunshine Glory Guild's station in White Training City has sunlight."
With Li Xinghui's introduction, Gu Xi got off the carriage.
Looking around, he found himself in a large square.
The buildings in the square were strangely divided into two parts.
One side had various pools and gates, while the other had buildings and villas of different heights.
"These pools are the entrances to the guild's exclusive worlds. You can enter after applying.
Those gates are dungeon gates. You can enter after successful application, but it's best to team up for dungeons, don't go alone.
Over there are the guild-arranged dormitories. Newcomers and interns live in high-rise buildings. Those who join a battle group are assigned to the corresponding villa area.
Each area corresponds to a battle group with various supporting facilities.
By the way, if you have a personal world passage, an independent dungeon key, or want to apply for a random game world, you just need to report the time. But never, ever open it in the dormitory area."
Listening to Li Xinghui's warning, Gu Xi nodded affirmatively.
He knew the taboos of opening game worlds.
Entering a game might be relatively private, but it couldn't be done at home.
No one could guarantee every player would return safely.
If you just died in the game, that was fine. But no one knew what could happen in the game. If someone was possessed or controlled, it would be different.
There have been historical incidents of game characters possessing players, causing chaos.
So, there was a rule that entering and exiting games must be in visible places.
It couldn't be done in private rooms.
"By the way, when I came out this time, I set up an anchor point and opened the game passage. I need to apply for a separate private passage."
"No problem, after completing your entry procedures, someone will arrange it for you."
