Chapter 49 The Third Guild
City A.
"It's okay, sis." Xie Xin said, "It's just that after I got hurt at the awards ceremony, I thought I was too busy with work these days, so it would be good to take a break for a while, so I postponed many of my schedules."
As he spoke, his free left hand rested on the table, tapping it again and again.
"Okay." The person on the phone with him was one of Xie Xin's few good friends in the industry. The other party said, "I was scared to death that day. I'm glad you're okay. By the way, have you found your agent?"
When this was mentioned, the expression on Xie Xin's face faded a little. He said softly, "Little Gu is a child with a temper. He always thinks of doing things that he wants to do. Maybe he went abroad to play."
“But your temperament is too fickle. You are an artist on the rise, how can you…” The friend’s tone unconsciously carried a hint of blame.
Xie Xin interrupted coldly, "Sister, that's my agent. I don't want anyone to tell him what to do. Without him, I wouldn't be who I am today."
After that, he changed the subject, exchanged a few words with the person on the other end, and then hung up the phone in a hasty manner.
Xie Xin looked up at the sketch on the table.
More than half a month.
Gu Qiufeng was still nowhere to be seen.
Although this guy would usually act like a child running away from home when he was angry, he had never disappeared for such a long time.
Xie Xin couldn't imagine where he would go.
He listed all the places Gu Qiufeng might have gone and searched for them, but in the end he found nothing.
At this moment, the cell phone that he had casually put aside rang again.
Xie Xin raised her eyebrows, and a trace of irritation and impatience flashed across her beautiful face.
After he answered the unknown call, he lowered his voice slightly and restrained his emotional fluctuations: "What's the matter?"
After a while, Xie Xin read out a name with amusement: "Duan Jiangli, the captain of the first team of the A City Protection Center?"

The disappearance of the World Boss in City D was truly too big a matter.
After the people of City D were ecstatic, posts about this incident soon exploded on the forum.
For a time, the forum homepage was almost entirely filled with discussions about the D City World Boss.
As for how the World Boss disappeared, it is actually the most unclear to the players in City D.
Gu Qiufeng's disguise has always been successful. Even though he has met most of the players in the circus, no one has connected this bloody new player with the holy son NPC who is illuminated by holy light in the game.
It was the audience watching the live broadcast who first remembered Gu Qiufeng's skills, and quickly linked the cause of the BOSS's disappearance to Gu Qiufeng.
[Fuck, this new monster's ability is a bug, right? Can the World Boss just kill it when he wants? ]
[Help! Boss Gu has become a phenomenal player here. I feel like he will be able to do great things in the future!]
[I don’t know what happened exactly, because Boss Gu basically didn’t have time to broadcast live in the next few days, but Arcana’s disappearance from City D is probably related to this guy]
[No, the bounty is gone now. I'm speaking boldly. Gu Qiufeng's ability is very useful! Look at what has become of the dungeons he cleared! They are all closed. The dungeons in the game are limited (crazy hint)]
[But there are so many copies, and asking Boss Gu to clear them one by one until he dies is pointless, right? ]
[Speaking of which, it’s time for Boss Gu to upgrade this time, right? Is this the first time I’ve heard of closing a world instance? ]
[There is a gap between City C and City B. If Boss Gu wants to go, it should be... City C]
Gu Qiufeng put his hands in his pockets and looked around the high-tech central hall. He couldn't help but sigh, it turned out that players become more generous after they have points.
This central hall, which can accommodate tens of thousands of people, is luxuriously decorated, with metal carvings that give it a mechanical feel everywhere you look.
Starting from City C, the influence of major guilds has spread. The only visible hotel in City D is the Changyu Tavern chain.
Therefore, such a magnificent, high-tech hall that was directly requisitioned by the game should have been built by a guild.
Anyway, Gu Qiufeng and the Second and Third Guilds are all familiar acquaintances who have never known each other before.
He glanced around and confirmed that this was the place to log in and out of the C City dungeon. He then put his hands in his pockets and walked with the crowd heading towards the exit.
New map, new atmosphere. Gu Qiufeng hasn’t figured out who the local boss is yet, so he can’t act rashly.
Although the wanted order had been removed by the kind-hearted classmate Xiaoyu, Gu Qiufeng had already been exposed to all the players, and there was no way to erase everyone's memory.
There may not be a few crazy people who intend to cause trouble.
In this survival game, human nature is the most unreliable thing.
Therefore, Gu Qiufeng did not summon Feng He or Arcana. As the dungeon bosses, they were too conspicuous. Gu Qiufeng himself changed his usual dressing style and wore a white shirt inside and a sweatshirt outside, with the hood covering most of his face.
Gu Qiufeng usually likes to wear black formal clothes for work. In the game, his dressing habits have not changed. He is used to showing off and doesn't pay attention to his dressing.
Now that I think about it, among a group of gamers, formal business attire is quite eye-catching.
After coming out of the Arcana instance, Gu Qiufeng found that his long hair had been brought out with him. As time was tight, he just sat on the bus that was transporting him out of the instance and cut it off with a knife. But for some reason, the hair grew unexpectedly fast, and it grew longer in a short while.
Gu Qiufeng had no choice but to braid her hair into a small braid, and comforted herself that it would be less likely to be recognized this way.
Besides that, his left eye still hurts.
Gu Qiufeng suspected that he was contaminated by that unknown existence, and decided to ask in City C if there were any powerful healing players who could help treat his injured left eye.
After walking out of the hall silently, Gu Qiufeng took a quick look and saw a large group of people gathered at the door.
Gu Qiufeng's eyelids twitched slightly, and he quickly hid in the crowd and slipped into an inconspicuous corner.
"Why hasn't Gu Qiufeng come out yet?"
"He likes to wear black suits. He is tall and handsome. He is very conspicuous. Let's wait a little longer."
"We really rely on Boss Gu to defeat the World Boss in City C. If he can help us defeat him, I will immediately go to his livestream room to give him a reward."
"I'm different. I want to see Feng He. I missed the little cutie so much in the last instance..."
Gu Qiufeng listened for a while, then slipped away silently, feeling that his decision to disguise himself and blend into the crowd was the right one.
The reason for helping D City to defeat the BOSS is that Arcana has memory clues about the first generation A-level player, God's Tears.
What does the world boss of City C have to do with him? He is not a saint who can save all living beings.
What's more, C-level players are much more qualified and already have the ability to clear dungeons independently, so they still want Gu Qiufeng to help them conquer the world boss.
I'm just having free time.
They can't even use moral kidnapping.
Gu Qiufeng walked into an empty alley and reached the end before answering the video calls that Yu Chiang kept making.
"What's wrong?" Gu Qiufeng asked.
Yu Chiang was stunned for a moment when he saw him dressed like this, but he quickly realized Gu Qiufeng's current situation and said, "Senior, I had a feeling before... Can you use my skills?"
Gu Qiufeng: “.”
Ah, I remembered that in order to avoid Arcana's pursuit, he summoned Yu Chi'ang's spirit body in a desperate situation.
Forgot to explain.
Gu Qiufeng said vaguely: "Yes, my skills seem to be..."
"It's okay. Senior, you don't have to explain it to me," Yu Chiang smiled, "I'm very happy to be able to help you."
Gu Qiufeng said sincerely: "Unless it is an emergency, I will try my best to minimize the interference to you."
Yu Chi'ang said, "It's just that the reason I came to you this time is somewhat related to this matter. I upgraded my skills some time ago, so you can summon my spirit body first."
Although Gu Qiufeng didn't know what he was going to do, he still silently took out a kitten from the card.
"Okay, senior, wait for me." Yu Chiang hung up the phone in a hurry.
The next second, the white cat that Gu Qiufeng put on the ground turned into Yu Chiang in the blink of an eye.
Gu Qiufeng became interested and looked around: "What is this...?"
Yu Chi'ang said, "It's me, Senior."
"Reverse summon?" Gu Qiufeng said happily, "Then you are really amazing. You directly exploited the bug in the game map."
Yu Chi'ang shook his head: "It's the senior who is amazing. It's because the senior can summon my skills that gave me inspiration in this area."
"I am perhaps more familiar with C City than you, senior." Yu Chi'ang said, "Senior, do you know which guild is the most powerful in C City?"
Gu Qiufeng touched his chin and said, "If you say so, I guess it's the Changyu Tavern."
Yu Chiang smiled faintly: "Senior is really smart."
It must be said that Yu Chiang had a set of ideas for running the guild, combining hotels, restaurants and other aspects of life. Even City D had a hotel, so it was no surprise that City C had the most influence. After all, the bases of the second and third guilds were still mainly in City B.
Yu Chi'ang was a C-level player, and C City had not changed much over the years. He brought Gu Qiufeng to the entrance of a club with ease.
"This is the property of the Third Guild." Yu Chi'ang explained, "The Third Guild is good at high-dimensional information technology. In addition to building an intranet forum, you can also register a guild in the club."
Gu Qiufeng asked curiously, "Is that central hall a product of the Second Guild?"
Yu Chi'ang nodded: "In addition to the Second Guild, the majority of the industry is in City B. They control the power center of City B."
Gu Qiufeng couldn't help but say, "You three guilds really each have their own responsibilities."
Yu Chiang did not object to his misusing idioms, but said, "Senior, aren't you curious about what I want to do by bringing you here?"
Gu Qiufeng smiled and said, "Xiaoyu will definitely tell me."
"That's true." Yu Chi'ang was amused by his attitude and finally relaxed a little. When he came here, for some reason his mental state was always tense.
"I want to take the senior to meet the prophet. She happens to be here right now."
Gu Qiufeng said in surprise: "I thought she wouldn't be in City C."
Yu Chi'ang said: "There are always some means that can be like you and me. Although this game is huge, it is not indestructible."
As he spoke, he had already swiped his card to open the door of the club.
A robot jumped out and led them inside.
Yu Chiang's words fell softly into Gu Qiufeng's ears.
"The prophet Duan Chouyu, the vice president of the third guild, senior, she was the captain of the first team of the A City Protection Center."
Gu Qiufeng's attention was on the second half of Yu Chiang's sentence.
He is the captain of the first team again.
He thought to himself.
The author has something to say:
There will be no second update. Sorry TVT, I shouldn't have said anything irresponsible.
Everyone must drink plenty of water and keep warm to avoid being diagnosed with COVID-19. It was so uncomfortable after getting COVID-19... The fever has gone, but I am not feeling well now... I feel like my body has been drained out. TVT's whole body hurts, and it feels like there is a stick stirring inside my head.
But I should resume updating three times a day in the future - I will ask for leave when I am busy with homework (. Thanks
