Chapter 409: The Medal Master
Chapter 409: The Medal Master
As more and more medals hung from his chest, Su Yu couldn't help but flash an awkward yet polite smile.
Of course, these medals weren't entirely useless. Two of them were Legendary quality, and a bunch more were Epic, each with practical skills attached.
The problem was, there were just too many! His shirt was almost bursting from the weight!
He couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Aiyah, Alyssa, stop giving me medals. How about some rings instead?"
Now he had 35 new accessory slots filled, but his two ring slots were still empty.
It was truly bizarre. He had never received a single ring from any quest or monster, which left him thoroughly puzzled.
Everyone else was a "Ring Lord," but why had he become a "Medal Master"?
The noise in the crowd was deafening, and Alyssa didn't catch what Su Yu said. She turned back and asked, "Kexing, what did you say? I didn't hear you clearly."
"Nothing, nothing," Su Yu replied, hesitating.
But Morning Star, perched on his shoulder, had heard him clearly and couldn't help but stifle a laugh, "How about I go to the Elven Kingdom and find the top jeweler, Hisk Windchime, to craft a pair of rings for you and Alyssa? As your engagement rings, perhaps?"
"Engagement? Let's not go there," Su Yu's lips twitched. He had no intentions of getting engaged.
Actually, it wasn't just Su Yu who felt awkward. The NPC citizens in the crowd were also struggling to keep their composure.
Seeing Su Yu adorned with countless medals and awards, many of them wore expressions of mixed amusement and bewilderment, trying hard not to laugh.
Finally, they couldn't hold back and gathered in small groups to whisper:
"Does Sir Kexing have a 'Medal Display Wall' now?"
"Sir Kexing certainly deserves all these, but it does look a bit ridiculous."
"Imagine him at formal events, walking around with all these medals jingling all the time!"
...
The players in the crowd were also having a field day.
One player laughed, "Haha, each of us can only equip two accessories, and Sir Kexing has 35! It's completely useless and a bit wasteful."
"Exactly!" another player chimed in. "Some of those accessories are pretty useful, especially the two that look Legendary. But this is Sir Kexing! He has more Legendary accessories than anyone else. These are probably going to gather dust."
"You're right! This is quite the scene! I need to take a picture of this!"
A player pushed through the crowd, approached Su Yu, and aimed the game's built-in camera at him, ready to capture this memorable moment.
Su Yu overheard the players' conversation.
Deciding to go all out, he took out his existing Moon Goddess Clan Medal, Advanced Scholar Medal, and Secret Thorn, and added them to his chest.
Facing the camera, he maintained a serious expression while giving a V sign.
"HAHAHA!" The players below burst into laughter at Su Yu's reaction.
Among them, a player named "Great Khan John" was laughing so hard he was clutching his stomach.
But after a moment, he suddenly said, "Wait a minute! Seeing Sir Kexing like this reminds me of a leader in Soviet history who loved collecting medals!"
"You mean Comrade Brezhnev?" another player asked.
Brezhnev, the fourth leader of the Soviet Union, was known for his love of collecting medals, earning at least fifty to sixty of various kinds throughout his life. He was affectionately called "Medal Master" by netizens.
Seeing Su Yu's body adorned with countless medals, many players in the room immediately thought of the legendary predecessor.
"Since Ke has so many medals, why don't we give him a new nickname, 'Ke the Medal Master'?" John the Great Khan suggested.
"Ke the Medal Master? Great name! I love it!"
"Support! I like this name too."
"This name has a similar charm to 'Prince Ke.' Too bad 'Prince Ke' never really caught on."
"I'll head over to the official forums and spread this nickname so everyone knows about it!"
"Me too! We can leave comments and like each other's posts to boost its popularity!"
Many players in the room agreed on the name "Ke the Medal Master" and took the initiative to spread it on the official forums.
Soon, the forums were flooded with videos and images of Su Yu covered in medals, along with the new nickname "Ke the Medal Master."
Especially the scene where Su Yu made a V sign with a serious face looked particularly eerie.
At the moment, players on the forum were still discussing Su Yu's claim that ancient powerful beings are still alive.
In the past, "Guan Yu battling Qin Qiong" was a derogatory term, but now it seemed entirely possible, and everyone was very excited.
However, a new wave of enthusiasm had already surged, and the image of Su Yu covered in medals along with the nickname "Ke the Medal Master" quickly spread throughout the forum, leading to a new wave of widespread discussion online.
Su Yu was unaware of these discussions on the official forums.
After the medal ceremony, he returned to the palace with Alyssa and took off the [Golden Fleece Plane Chain], placing it around her neck.
Having completed everything, Su Yu chose to log out of the game.
He had already spent 12 hours in the game today and needed to take a break.
In the real world, at Su Yu's home in Donghai City.
Su Yu took off his helmet and stood up from the sofa.
It was 11:40 PM, and the room was pitch black.
In 20 minutes, it would be a new day, and he could re-enter the game. However, Su Yu didn't want to log back in just 20 minutes later.
He planned to return to his normal routine of logging in from 8 AM to 8 PM. Tomorrow morning at 8 AM, he would enter the game and join Sylvanas to visit the [Hall of the Departed] to avenge Morningstar.
Su Yu turned on the light and stretched his slightly stiff body.
Then, he took out his phone, intending to call Xue Wenli to continue eliminating the ghosts created by the Skrulls.
Just as he unlocked his phone and was about to open his contacts, he heard a sudden noise from the sofa behind him.
Turning around, he was shocked to see:
The game helmet he had placed on the sofa suddenly floated into the air and hovered there.
Su Yu: !!!
At first glance, it looked quite eerie. If this had happened a year ago, he would have been terrified!
But now, being a Saint Domain Mage, he casually cast a [Lightning Shield], and the crackling arcs of electricity surrounding him made him feel much more at ease.
After the helmet floated to mid-air, a figure gradually formed beneath it.
Wearing a light golden silk outfit, with a delicate and refined face, it was none other than Tina Garcia!
It turned out that Tina had used his helmet as a portal to return to the real world.
