Chapter 21

After the first town player reaches level 10, the level 10 dungeon will automatically open.

However, Xia Mo was not in a hurry to finish this book, because except for her, no one in the entire Buluo town had reached level 10. The highest level was only level 9, and there was only one person at that level. The next lowest levels were level 8 and 7.

With their current strength, it is impossible to pass the level, so Xia Mo plans to put the copy aside and deliver the letter first.

After forming a contract with the divine beast, a battle pet home will automatically be opened up on the player panel, specifically for accommodating the battle pet. In order to facilitate his next actions, Xia Mo put Jingjing in it, and then climbed back to the high ground from the valley bottom.

[Lvwalu County] was a bit far from the highlands. It took Xia Mo more than two hours to teleport and walk. This made her legs weak as she had been accustomed to riding a horse in her previous life.

What made her even more helpless was that her physical strength was only half left. She had to find a place to rest and recover some strength.

Another half an hour passed before Xia Mo found NPC Andrew in the county and handed the letter to him.

After reading the letter, the latter was quite surprised. "I didn't expect your mayor to remember my donation last year? I'm ashamed to have him send you all the way here to deliver the letter. Young man, I won't let you make a wasted trip. It just so happens that my warehouse has recently received a lot of good stuff. Come with me and take a look."

Having never met Andrew in his previous life, Xia Mo couldn't help but feel happy when he heard that he still had a warehouse.

Following Andrew, after turning a few small roads in the county, a building larger than the mayor's house appeared in front of us.

If this was her first time playing "Protoss", she would definitely be amazed by such tall buildings, because they were born in the small town of Buluo and had no chance to come into contact with county-level buildings before leaving the town.

Seeing it for the first time, almost everyone couldn't help but tilt their necks and sigh in admiration.

Even Xia Mo back then was no exception. When she left the small town for the first time and rushed to the most prosperous main city on the continent of Pergas, all the cities and counties she passed by on the way amazed her.

The feeling was wonderful and shocking, as if she was really traveling in a real world.

Later, as she visited more and more cities and covered wider and wider continents, many god-level buildings that could be said to be the work of the creators no longer caused much excitement in her eyes.

Now that he was reborn and started from a small town again, Xia Mo felt his heart beating faster for the first time in a long time.

Andrew opened the warehouse door and showed her a wide variety of goods.

"Young man, I see you're exhausted and sweating profusely. How about this? I'll give you this box of stamina potions as a gift."

One box!

The heartbeat that had just been suppressed began to beat wildly again.

She nodded hurriedly, fearing that Andrew would take back the gift the next second.

A wooden box with a size of 12*50ml was handed to her.

[Primary Stamina Potion: Restores 10 points of Stamina after drinking]

Just now I was complaining about not having enough energy, and now Andrew immediately and thoughtfully sent me a whole box. What do you call this? It's like a sleepyhead meeting a pillow - just what I wanted!

After expressing her gratitude to Andrew very warmly, Xia Mo did not forget one other thing. With a smile on her face, she politely asked Andrew: "Dear Mr. Andrew, how do I get to the post office in your county?"

There are post offices in most administrative areas, and there is also one in the town of Buluo, but it is very small and is officially labeled as an "inn".

It doesn't matter what the scale is, as long as the letter is received.

Hearing her question, Andrew patiently showed her the way.

After thanking him, Xia Mo immediately ran towards the post office.

She did not forget that she was well-known in the town. Although she had delivered the letter, if she did not go back to report, the mission would be considered unfinished.

Most of the work was done, but it was stuck at the last moment. Xia Mo didn't like the feeling of being stuck, so he thought of the post office.

"Hello, I have an expedited package that needs to be sent to Buluo Town. How much does it cost?"

The NPC in charge of handling the shipment looked up and looked at her. "How urgent is it? We can use Golden Express Horse or Special Carrier Pigeon. Which one would you like?"

A carrier pigeon is faster than a pony, so Xia Mo chose the former without hesitation: "Let's go with the carrier pigeon."

The NPC smiled and said, "Okay, special pigeon for 1 gold coin. Please pay at the nearby payment counter."

“So expensive?!”

Sending a package from the Royal City by carrier pigeon only costs 2 gold coins. This county-level plot of land...

The NPC still had a smile on his face. "Miss, this price is not expensive. Special-grade flying pigeons are rare birds. It takes a bird trainer a long time to train one."

Xia Mo took a deep breath.

She understood.

Flying pigeons are everywhere in the royal city, and there is no shortage of bird trainers. As the saying goes, rare things are valuable. Something that is very common in the royal city would be a rare item in the remote Luwalu County.

Fine... Xia Mo, who wasn't poor but definitely not rich, chose to settle for the next best thing: "Then where's the golden horse?"

The NPC politely replied, "20 silver coins."

Xia Mo: ...Suddenly I don’t want to rush this anymore.

It’s not that she can’t afford the money, she just feels that... the price of the horse is a bit not worth it.

Seeing her standing there with a frown on her face, several NPCs lined up behind her began to urge her impatiently: "Can you hurry up? What are you dawdling for?"

Xia Mo made up his mind and gritted his teeth: "Add! I want a faster horse!"

After reluctantly handing over 20 silver coins next door, she briefly stated on the letter the reasons why she couldn't go back for the time being (actually, they were all high-sounding words), hoping that the mayor would be flexible, then stuffed the paper into an envelope and handed it to the NPC.

"Okay, Miss Mo Se, your letter has been delivered. Considering the distance between Luwalu County and the town of Buluo, the Golden Express can deliver it in 15 minutes. Here is your receipt, please accept it."

When Xia Mo heard that the express journey would only take 15 minutes, his heart that had been a little worried about Xiao Qianqian immediately calmed down.

After running all morning, I felt a little hungry.

Just like in real life, players' stamina and satiety values ​​will decrease if they're active for a long time. When stamina decreases, the usual approach is to sleep and rest, like she did last night at the hotel; as for satiety, just eat something.

She actually had breakfast at the Haru Hotel in the morning, but unfortunately she had fought with the mutated stone beast for an hour and then ran non-stop for another two hours. Even if she was an iron man, she would be hungry.

Fortunately, Xia Mo was always casual when it came to eating, so he just found a cheap stall on the roadside, ordered a dessert, and sat down.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she took out a bottle of physical strength potion given by Andrew.

After gulping down the drink, his physical strength immediately increased from 50 points to 60 points.

Not long after, the NPC girl brought over the prepared dessert.

Xia Mo glanced at the crystal clear lychees in the bowl and the fermented glutinous rice floating on the ice water, and suddenly looked up: "Are you Ashaya?"

The ID displayed above the other person's head was not called this name, but Xia Mo only took a look at the dessert in his hand and recognized who made this masterpiece - Ashaya, the top pastry chef in the royal city.

A man who sacrificed his life for the royal city in the early stage, but his personality changed drastically in the later stage, and he became a famous blackened NPC who sold the royal city's military secrets.

Hearing the question, the other party tilted his head suspiciously: "Do you know me?"

Xia Mo smiled. It was really her.

Unexpectedly, before entering the royal city, she was just an unknown character selling things at a roadside stall.

Speaking of which, this is also one of the fun of playing "Protoss". All the NPCs in it have their own birth background, story growth line... Players can become a part of the NPC's growth line by making friends with them.

These rings will affect the future development of the NPC, and naturally lead them to different endings.

Ashaya's transformation into a villain must have been related to the intervention of a certain player.
