◎Poaching people from their guild◎

No one may pay attention to one announcement, but when two or three announcements appear on the screen like a flood, even the most blind player will have to take a second look.

[What the hell? The name of a skill book can be censored?]

The players couldn't help but feel surprised when they found that the words in the quotation marks were crossed out.

It's not censored, it's her choice not to make it public, right? [Don't criticize me for just saying it casually]]

[Holy crap! Does that mean it must be an incredibly powerful skill?!]

[Ahhh! I really want to know what skill this is!]

[Are you guys missing the point a bit? Didn't you notice the words "Garden Valley - Flower Maze" were written on the announcement?]

[Fuck! You reminded me!]

[Oh my god, isn't this the maze everyone's been complaining about on the forums? She actually cleared it?! (Shocked.jpg)]

[It's unclear whether she's cleared the game or not. This isn't a dungeon, so the system won't indicate that. However, one thing is certain: she has indeed surpassed the progress of all the previous players!]

After these words were spoken, the world channel fell silent. No one had expected that Xia Ri Lihua, who they had not been optimistic about since the launch of the server, was refreshing their perception time and time again through various means.

After getting the skill book she wanted, Xia Li's journey through the maze became much smoother. Although she misremembered the route twice, which led her into the flower demon's lair, she finally found the exit after an hour thanks to her excellent reaction ability, output strength, and the most critical primary detoxification potion.

The maze took up a lot of her time, but thinking back, Xia Li was quite grateful to Anxing and Changtian for chasing her. If it weren't for them, she would have probably forgotten about the maze long ago, not to mention having to remember the skill book. Thinking this way, this hour was not wasted.

Xia Li raised the corners of her lips in satisfaction, clicked on the map, and prepared to explore deeper into the Garden Valley, where there was lush vegetation and abundant water, and it was the favorite place for horses to take a walk.

The process of removing the horse's tail was a little difficult. Even though Xia Li was quite confident in her skills and had some experience from many times in her life, she still couldn't avoid being kicked by several wild horses. Fortunately, she knew when to stop. Every time she got close to them, she would pull out a few hairs from the tail, turn around and run before the wild horse could react, and then continue to touch them after the horse calmed down.

After many rounds of trying, she finally managed to collect all 100 ponytails! It was truly a cause for celebration and a touching moment.

Xia Li wiped the sweat from her forehead and looked at the 100/100 in the task bar, feeling deeply moved. The Great Wall had finally taken a big step forward. Next, she had to go cut the spruce.

The spruce grew in another direction, separated from the maple forest by only a small path. Xia Li pulled Xiaoguai out and moved to the new place, preparing to use the [Logging] skill to cut down the trees.

However, her life skills were basically only at level 1, and her proficiency was very low. In order to improve her efficiency, Xia Li had to bite the bullet and spent hundreds of gold coins and nearly thousands of experience points to learn the [Logging], [Cutting], and [Carving] skills to level 11.

The system reminded her that she had mastered all three skills, so she took out her axe and prepared to get to work.

[Successfully cut down spruce, gain spruce +1]

[Successfully cut down spruce, gain spruce +1]

…

With her unremitting efforts, ten spruce trees were soon collected successfully.

[Section: Go to Garden Valley to collect Horsetail*100, Spruce*10——Completed]

The considerable experience points allowed her to reach level 29 and a half, and the gold coins she earned also brought her one step closer to the freedom of her home!

However, Xia Li was not ready to go back home yet, because she knew very well how bad her skill in making guitars was. In her previous life, she had ruined 26 guitars. Even if she had a 50% discount due to her experience in this life, she would have ruined 13 guitars, right?

So, instead of rushing to hand in a guitar of mediocre quality and being asked by Richard to rework it, she might as well be more self-conscious and try to finish the guitar in Garden Valley before taking it back.

In order to make any item in Miracle, in addition to lighting up and learning the corresponding life skills, players must also actually operate it. Unlike the keyboard online games of the old era, players only need to click a button and everything they want will be automatically generated.

Xia Li was already accustomed to the realistic setting of miracles, so she had no complaints and took out the materials and started making them on the spot.

First, the spruce has to be cut neatly, and then glue is used to splice the boards together. She provides the glue herself. In this splicing process, strength is very important. If the force is too great, the spruce board will easily break, and if the force is too small, the board will easily become unstable. In short, it is a task that tests skills and proficiency.

Perhaps thanks to the experience gained from scrapping 26 guitars, she was able to assemble the guitar body and the scraper right off the bat. Even more surprising was that due to her frantic use of her life skills in such a short period of time, the system actually gave her a reward reminder!

[Because you used the [Cutting] and [Carving] skills more than 30 times within a certain period of time, you were awarded the title [Dedicated Craftsman]]

[Dedicated Craftsman: Using craft skills such as [Cutting], [Carving], [Sewing], and [Tailoring] has a certain chance of triggering excellent quality.]

Excellent quality! Xia Li's eyes lit up when she saw these four words!

She was a player who did not pursue both career and life cultivation. It was almost impossible for her to make anything of excellent quality or above. It could even be said that it was considered good if the finished product was not scrapped. However, she did not expect that in this life, because she used the cutting skill fast enough and often enough, she directly triggered a very practical title.

So he hurriedly threw the appraisal technique onto the unfinished piano.

A guitar body without strings (quality: excellent)

Amazing! It had to be amazing! Even though the strings hadn't been installed yet, judging by the quality of the guitar, her finished product was sure to be just as good! The thought of being able to make a guitar that would satisfy Richard in one go made Xia Li feel her back and legs stop aching, and she felt a surge of energy.

However, at this moment.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Hei, I already have someone I like."

Her fingers, twitching on the strings, paused. Huh? She seemed to have forgotten that there was a private owner and the person being privately booked in the Garden Valley.

"Just because you have someone you like doesn't stop me from confessing to you." A male voice floated over from the maple forest across the path.

"Mr. Hei...you know what I mean..." The girl's voice weakened. Despite this, she still mustered up the courage to refuse for the second time.

"I don't know what you mean. I only know that when I woke up, my longing for you was overwhelming, and the ripples in my heart were all because of you."

Xia Li: “…”

Hei Ye is still the same Hei Ye, his flirty words one after another. What did he say to me back then? "I live at the head of the Yangtze River, you live at its tail. I miss you day and night, but I can't see you. Let's drink the Yangtze River water together." Hearing it back then made me want to vomit. I never thought that compared to the flirty words he said today, his dialogue back then was nothing.

Xia Li didn't consider herself a gossiper, but the words had already reached her ears, so how could she not listen? So she continued to bury her head, twirling her ponytail to fast-track the strings, while openly eavesdropping.

"Heiye, you are very good, but what I said is true. I have someone I like. That person is unique in my heart, and no one can replace her."

After listening to a few words, Xia Li suddenly felt that the voice was somewhat familiar. It was soft and sticky, and it made people feel fond of it. Her mind raced, and suddenly, a face entered her mind.

It was her, the little priest Taohua whom I met in the Endless Abyss that day! She was also a member of their Fengyun Tianxia!

Wow, someone has poached people from their guild. Xia Li immediately put on a stern face and began to move her ponytailed fingers faster, plucking one string after another between her fingers. In a short while, a guitar was made.

You successfully made a guitar.

Use identification.

【A guitar (quality: excellent)】

It’s settled. The piano we get back this time will definitely satisfy Richard.

After completing the last task during the Queen's Ceremony, Xia Li stood up, patted the dirt off her butt, and walked towards the two people in the woods with a gloomy face.
