Chapter 39: "The Worldly Wise" Su Yu
Chapter 39: "The Worldly Wise" Su Yu
At 12:30 PM, SnowFLAKE went online.
SNOWFLAKE: "Bro! I have something really interesting to tell you!"
"Today, a crazy guy burst into our classroom and slapped Mr. Fang, our teacher, really hard! Then, this lunatic actually jumped from the third floor! Hahaha!"
SNOWPANTHER: "."
SNOWFLAKE: "Isn't that hilarious?"
SNOWPANTHER: "......"
SNOWFLAKE: "Hey, bro, did you guys clear Thundercliff? You guys are pretty good!"
SNOWPANTHER: "FLAKE, none of that matters. I need you to help me contact Kestar."
A few minutes later, Su Yu received a private message from SNOWFLAKE: "Hey, big shot, my brother wants to meet you."
Su Yu: "Your brother?"
SNOWFLAKE: "My brother is SNOWPANTHER! He's the one who cleared Thundercliff first."
Su Yu: "Oh?"
Su Yu was surprised to find out that SNOWFLAKE was SNOWPANTHER's sister. He hadn't heard of SNOWPANTHER having a sister in his previous life. But then again, SNOWFLAKE was deleted early in the game, so it made sense she wasn't well-known.
SNOWFLAKE: "My brother wants to meet you. Since he's taking up your time, he's willing to pay a meeting fee. It can be in-game items, currency, or even cash, whatever you prefer."
Su Yu: "No need for a meeting fee. Just have him come to the entrance of Level 10 Wolf King Valley to find me."
SNOWFLAKE: "Got it, big shot!"
Su Yu picked up the equipment dropped by the raccoon and headed toward Wolf King Valley. He had already planned to meet SNOWPANTHER, so he agreed to the invitation. He didn't want SNOWPANTHER's group to see him bullying the raccoon, as it would be embarrassing. Besides, Su Yu had already leveled up to Level 7 and secured the first kill of the raccoon boss, so there was nothing left to linger for.
Wolf King Valley and the Evening Forest were both west of the Beginner Village. Su Yu arrived at the entrance of Wolf King Valley first.
A few minutes later, SNOWPANTHER's five-person team and SNOWFLAKE arrived.
Seeing the steep cliffs at the entrance of Wolf King Valley, the five of them looked somewhat solemn. Despite each of them obtaining a rare piece of equipment, leveling up in the Level 10 area was still very challenging. Kestar's ability to level up here already spoke volumes about his strength.
Standing at the entrance of Wolf King Valley, Su Yu sized up SNOWPANTHER.
SNOWPANTHER looked exactly the same as he did in Su Yu's previous life - a strong and determined individual with a distinctive square face.
SNOWPANTHER also sized Su Yu up and down.
Hmm, Su Yu looked at him with a kind and gentle gaze. SNOWPANTHER felt that Su Yu's gaze was strange, a gentle and kind look, reminiscent of the old cadres in the Military District.
"Hello, Kestar, I'm SNOWPANTHER, leader of Snow King's Guild. It's an honor to meet you."
SNOWPANTHER stepped forward, extending his hand for a handshake.
"Hey there! Young man."
SNOWPANTHER's lips twitched.
He was thirty-five, and this was the first time he had been called "young man" by someone so... young.
However, considering Kestar's actions in the game, SNOWPANTHER didn't dare take him lightly.
SNOWPANTHER said, his tone serious: "I've come to invite you to join our guild."
"If you agree to join our guild, I can offer you the position of Vice Guild Leader, with the highest benefits, of course."
"Sure! Why not?"
Ranger and Truth (previously RANGE and Truth, assumed to be character names) chimed in from the back, urging him to join: "Just join our guild! Our guild is very united and friendly. Right now, there isn't a single woman in the guild, making it all the more welcoming."
Here is the rewritten chapter with non-English characters replaced with their English equivalents or transliterations:

Su Yu's lips twitched slightly.
However, he slowly raised his arm and waved it gently, speaking in a tone that made him sound like an old sage. "Forget it, the guild is something for young people like you. I'm just an old man who should have faded into history long ago, so I won't get involved."
"Should have faded into history?" Snowflower Luo echoed, her face filled with confusion.
Snowflower Leopard continued, "Senior, I have another reason for coming here. I want to ask you, what kind of reward does the game offer after reaching Level 50?"
Snowflower Leopard sensed something was off.
Su Yu's current old and weary tone was completely different from the young man's voice he used when broadcasting the "megaphone advertisement" yesterday! However, Snowflower Leopard couldn't quite figure out the specifics, so he decided to play along and continue the conversation.
Su Yu placed his hands behind his back and slightly hunched his shoulders. "Give me a reason why I should tell you."
The five of them exchanged glances, communicating silently.
After a moment, Snowflower Leopard exhaled softly. "Senior, we are Guo Jia's people."
"Guo Jia? Guo Fengxiao? Haha, he's an old acquaintance." Su Yu nodded in satisfaction.
If he could have a gray beard to stroke, he would look even more the part.
With a weathered tone, Su Yu said, "Alright, I'll give you a hint."
"But before I do, I want to ask you, do you really understand this world?"
He lifted his right hand, and a large amount of electrical energy gathered in his palm, crackling with energy.
On the other side, Caliber is Justice, a mage, was taken aback by Su Yu's action. "How is this possible?"
"What's wrong?" his four teammates turned to look at him.
"It's like this," Caliber is Justice explained. "That spell is [Lightning Bolt]. I picked up a book for it at the warehouse last night."
"But when I cast [Lightning Bolt], the bolt immediately shoots out of my hand. How did Senior manage to hold the lightning in his hand for so long?"
His four teammates were still confused, but the priest, Steel Flood March, seemed to have a glimmer of understanding.
The five of them looked at Su Yu again, but their expressions were now more serious.
Su Yu smiled and canceled the [Lightning Bolt] spell, then slowly said, "Have you ever considered this possibility? What if this isn't just a game, but a dead world that has been transformed into a new one?"
"In this new world, the spells you learn and the powers you gain can be brought back to Blue Star at a certain point in time."
Su Yu wasn't just making things up. In his previous life, there was already some evidence suggesting that Evolution was a new world modified by a Singer Civilization, far more than just a simple game.
The five of them were completely stunned by Su Yu's words.
The information was too much for them to process.
After a long moment, Snowflower Leopard finally came to his senses and asked cautiously, "Senior, do you mean that after reaching Level 50, we can bring the strength we gain in the game into the real world?!"
If that were true, it would be a game-changing revelation!
