Su Nana became Taoyuan's first mentor.
Her appearance signifies one thing: the mentor, who was originally scheduled to appear a year later, has arrived ahead of schedule.
Humans can also gain greater power through mentors.
However, Qin Bai was more concerned about something else. He sat in a private room with Su Nana and asked with a serious expression, "I want to know, where exactly does your mentor come from?"
Su Nana wasn't surprised at all that Qin Bai would ask such a question, and she was already prepared: "I'm sorry, there are some things we can't say."
Qin Bai had already guessed this, but...
This is reality, not a copy!
"Teacher, do you know someone named Bai Ya?"
Upon hearing the name, Su Nana's expression changed drastically: "You've seen Bai Ya? Impossible, how could he come to such a small world... Hmm!"
Su Nana realized she had talked too much and immediately covered her mouth.
But Qin Bai had already heard the term "small world".
What does "small world" mean?
Su Nana sighed and said, "Qin Bai, it's really not that I don't want to tell you, but there are some things I really can't say. Those three words just now have already punished me."
As she spoke, she stretched out her arm, which was as white and tender as a lotus root, and a blood-red mark appeared on it.
"This is……"
"This is my punishment. This mark will remain for a week, accompanied by excruciating pain."
A look of pain appeared on her face.
Qin Bai's expression was grave; he hadn't expected these mentors to have so many restrictions on them.
"Then what can you tell me, mentor? I believe you have come here for a specific purpose."
Qin Bai spoke frankly.
Su Nana nodded and said, "You are a smart person, and I have no reason to deceive you. Our mentors have only one goal, which is to help you humans and prevent this world from being destroyed."
"What if you die here?"
Qin Bai's gaze suddenly sharpened, as if he could see right through Su Nana's heart.
Su Nana was startled. When she first met Qin Bai, she felt that he was no ordinary person, but now she felt even more that he was a bit scary.
"Dead is dead, there is no other possibility."
Qin Bai nodded. The situation in the instance world could only be used as a reference, but through his observation, the Su Nana in front of him was indeed a living person, and nothing else.
He then asked about some other things, and Su Nana told him everything she could, and there was nothing she could do about the things she couldn't say.
"Alright, that concludes the basic exchange. Next, I'll take you to meet someone—no, I should say, not a person."
When Su Nana saw the Ice Tree, her eyes widened, and she blurted out, "The Ice Tree Clan? Or the Ice Tree Royal Family? How is that possible? Aren't the Ice Tree Royal Family forbidden from going to other worlds?"
She had barely finished speaking when she let out a cry of pain; clearly, she had been punished again.
But then Bingxue's voice rang out: "Mentor? A mentor has appeared so soon? It seems this place..."
Bingxue didn't continue speaking; she seemed to know something as well.
"Ice and Snow, are there any restrictions on you?"
Qin Bai asked directly.
"There are some, but less than what the mentor should have."
"That's fine. Now that the mentor has arrived, I'd like to speed things up a bit."
Bingxue seemed to understand the meaning behind Qin Bai's words and asked, "You want to expose the name Peach Blossom Spring right now?"
"That's right."
"But apart from you, no one else is strong enough."
Bingxue speaks very directly.
“I know, so I’m going to use the reward I got from the last dungeon run. I can open a random dungeon.”
Upon hearing this, both Bingxue and Su Nana were shocked.
"You can open a random instance? Don't use it yet, this thing is very valuable."
Su Nana quickly stopped Qin Bai.
“The mentor is right. This opportunity is very important. Although it is not as good as the designated dungeon, in this world, this opportunity may be unique.”
Bingxue chimed in.
Qin Bai frowned: "If I don't use it, how can I make the people of Peach Blossom Spring stronger?"
"It's simple, just trade this opportunity away."
"A deal? With whom?"
"merchant."
Qin Bai realized that he still knew too little.
From Su Nana, Qin Bai learned what a merchant was.
Like the mentor, the merchant comes from another world, and his purpose is also to help the humans of this world fight against those monsters.
However, unlike mentors, businessmen do not come from the same place, and there are far fewer businessmen than mentors.
If there's anything of high value, or even just an opportunity, you can trade it with a merchant.
Every merchant has a large number of customers, and by trading with merchants, they can maximize their profits.
Qin Bai was certain that he had never heard of a merchant in the instance.
Su Nana explained, "The copy is not the real future; it's just a future with many aspects removed, leaving only one aspect of the future."
"Based on what you've told me, I'm pretty sure that the future you're talking about is a future where only our mentors exist, which is why it's turned out that way."
"But in reality, there are many factors involved, including mentors and businessmen."
Qin Bai suddenly realized that, in this light, the future world in the instance could not be entirely trusted.
"Then how can we find the merchant?"
"have no idea."
"have no idea?"
Qin Bai's lips twitched.
Su Nana shrugged and said, "I really can't do anything about this. Merchants are always running around. Unless I see them with my own eyes, I don't know who they are."
What were the characteristics of that merchant?
"Well, does the habit of going around looking for people to sell things count?"
"Calculate!"
Once you have a goal, things become simple.
Qin Bai immediately instructed people to keep an eye out for people in this situation. As long as they found a merchant, he could trade with people from other worlds through the merchant and exchange this random instance opportunity for something more suitable for the people of Peach Blossom Spring.
So he immediately broadcast another message, roughly saying that if anyone spotted the merchant and described his features, they could request Peach Blossom Spring to provide assistance.
But it must be the truth. If it's just a lie made up to ask for help, then Taoyuan will not take any rescue action.
Just as the broadcast was being broadcast, a group of people were blocked by the frozen corpse in the underground parking lot of a city park.
If it weren't for the fact that some of them were superhumans resisting the ice corpses, these people would probably be dead by now.
