Chapter 90: Golden Broomflower Central Plaza
Chapter 90: Golden Broomflower Central Plaza
It was 1 PM, and the central plaza of Golden Broomflower City was bustling with activity. The legendary player, known as the Bane, was about to announce a new quest, drawing a massive crowd of gamers.
Among the throngs were several game streamers who had activated the in-game camera to broadcast the events unfolding on the plaza.
"Hello everyone, I'm Maple of Pine Island."
"Right in front of me is the Golden Broomflower Central Plaza. In half an hour, the Bane will be here to post a new quest."
"The plaza is teeming with top players! Look, not far ahead is the guild leader of the Muyun Guild, 'Cloud Shepherd.' He's a mage, and his weapon is the 10-level green wand, 'Matchstick,' from the 'Little Annie the Match Girl' dungeon. It has a unique design."
"Check this out, this is Snow Leopard, the guild leader of the Government Department Guild. He's said to be a rare druid."
"Wow! The second-ranked player on the leaderboard, 'Thousand Cups Unfazed,' is here too! Thousand Cups Unfazed, can I take a picture with you?"
"Thousand Cups Unfazed just glared at me, waaah, I'm so sad. I need more cookies to heal my emotional wounds."
Maple of Pine Island was a popular streamer with over two million followers. The chat in his live stream was rolling rapidly:
"Old Pine, you're a man in your thirties, and you're still whining? Disgusting."
"Here's the last pack of cookies for you."
"Walk around a bit; I see a lot of top-ranked players nearby."
"Old Pine, there's a cute little girl at the two o'clock position. Go check her out! I'll send you a 1000 yuan gift if you do!"
Seeing the gift notification, Old Pine's spirits lifted immediately. He looked to his left and saw a little girl in light brown chainmail approaching.
For the sake of the gift, Old Pine quickly walked over to the little girl: "Hello, little one! I'm Maple of Pine Island, a well-known game streamer. Say hi to the viewers!"
Old Pine pointed the camera at the little girl.
The chat in his stream exploded with activity:
"Wow! What a cute little girl."
"I wish I had a daughter as cute as her!"
"Is that 10-level dungeon gear she's wearing? She must be a top player."
"Of course! Anyone capable of clearing the 10-level dungeon at this point must be strong."
The little girl didn't respond. Instead, she coldly raised her bow, aiming the arrow at Old Pine.
Standing beside her were three teammates, but they didn't interfere, merely crossing their arms and watching the show.
Faced with the little girl's bow, Old Pine laughed: "Haha, little one, I'm a level 10 tank. Your damage won't break through my defenses."
Before he could finish his sentence, the little girl's arrow shot through the air.
Whoosh!
A crimson light streaked across, and Old Pine was instantly reduced to white light, kicked offline to reflect on his actions.
Seeing this, the viewers in his stream burst into laughter:
"Level 10 tank? Is that all?"
"Old Pine, your defense is paper-thin?"
"Haha, that was quick karma!"
"You can't break through my defense... RIP, hahahaha!"
The live stream was filled with joy and laughter.
The little girl who had fired the arrow was none other than Sky Dragon. She had used her innate skill, Heartpiercing Arrow, dealing 500% true damage and instantly killing Old Pine.
The NPC guards in the plaza merely gave her a warning glance but didn't intervene. They had been ordered to stay out of conflicts between otherworldly adventurers, only stepping in if the adventurers attacked the locals.
Sky Dragon didn't dwell on the fact that she had just killed a streamer. She clung to the leg of her companion, Winged Divine Dragon, blinking her large, innocent eyes: "Winged Divine Sister, can you join the Bane's guild with me later?"
"Going together would be great for support."
"I'm afraid that won't work," Divine Wyvern said, regretly, " "I would, I would, "I have a contract with the guild. I can't afford the breach of contract fee."
"No worries, I'll talk to my brother. We can both cancel our contracts!" Sky Dragon said cheerfully, "And if you join me, how about a threefold salary?"
"Threefold salary?!"
Before Divine Wyvern could respond, True Red Eye Black Dragon, who was walking ahead, suddenly turned around. His eyes gleamed, "What about me? Are you willing to take me along? My gaming skills are top-notch, the best in the industry!"
If there's a threefold salary, who would want to stay with Blood Emperor?
The ever-stern Giant Soldier also looked over, his expression showing interest.
"Hmm..."
Sky Dragon pursed her lips, thinking for a moment before shaking her head, "Sorry, Uncle True Red. Paying Sister Divine Wyvern threefold would already cut a quarter of my allowance. If I take you and Little Giant, I won't have any allowance left."
"Cut a quarter of your allowance."
True red eye black dragon and the others fell into a stunned silence.
As top players in the gaming world, they had signed million-dollar contracts with Blood Emperor.
Sky Dragon's mention of "a quarter of my allowance" nearly broke their defenses.
Their combined salaries, tripled, wouldn't even match Little Lolita's allowance?
This was ridiculous...
On the other side of the square, Su Yu arrived at the central plaza.
"Hey, everyone's here!" Su Yu waved to all the players present.
The square was not yet crowded; a rough count showed only about seven or eight hundred people.
But it made sense.
Some players had followed quest guides to other main cities, and a significant number had joined the rebel faction, so having fewer than a thousand was normal.
Those present were either elite members of major guilds or standout solo players.
Apart from a few streamers who eagerly approached Su Yu, the rest maintained their composure, watching him from a distance.
Most had never met Su Yu in person, and now, seeing him for the first time, they couldn't help but pay him close attention.
The most dazzling player in the game, everyone was extra attentive to him.
"Before we start the quest, I have a question for everyone. Is anyone willing to join the guild I'm creating?" Su Yu asked loudly.
The "Yellow Turban Army" guild was established shortly after he entered the city. However, it currently had only one member—Su Yu himself. This was a good opportunity to try and recruit.
"I, I, I will!"
A red-haired little girl quickly hopped out of the crowd.
Not just her, she also dragged a beautiful blonde with her.
"Hello, Ke Xin. I'm Sky dragon. If I join the guild, can I buy the howling moon wolf pet egg from you?" Sky Dragon asked excitedly.
She wanted to join Su Yu's guild mainly to get the howling moon wolf pet egg.
She loved those large, snow-white dogs but had no way to obtain one, so she could only buy it from Su Yu.
"Of course! Not only the howling moon wolf pet egg, but also higher-value pet eggs in the future!"
Su Yu, who already knew Sky Dragon would join, directly sent her a guild invitation.
After successfully joining, he promoted her to the "Officer" rank, allowing her to invite others to join.
"Now I'm relieved." Sky dragon smiled with delight.
After joining the guild, she opened the guild exchange list.
Sky Dragon initially wanted to search for the howling moon wolf pet egg.
But when she saw the first few items on the list, her eyes widened widened widened immediately.
a a surprise.
