Today is the twenty-third day of Feng Yuanning's journey.
Feng Yuanning didn't read very fast and her daily routine had always been normal, so until now, she had only read the sixth volume of "Harry Potter".
However, due to her unique privilege as the shop owner, she could fully master the magic in the books that appeared earlier just by reading them.
Now she can be considered a senior wizard.
It’s a pity that her own realm is too low. Now she has only reached the fifth level of the acquired realm, so the upper limit of her mental power is naturally not high.
Therefore, among the magic she mastered, some were difficult to perform, and some were of limited power even if they were performed.
However, despite this, it is much better than Song Yuluan's situation.
Feng Yuanning sympathized with Song Yuluan's tragic accusation, but he could not empathize with her.
Prince Bai Haoge of Chen clasped his fists and bowed to Feng Yuanning. He also said, "Shopkeeper, I, like Miss Song, have gained nothing so far. And as far as I know, only one in a hundred people has ever gained any insight from the book. Isn't this probability too low?"
Ke Bingling, the inspector of the Xuanjing Division, said, "Yes, I also gained nothing. Not only that, I've also had bad luck in zombie dungeons."
Obviously, she had won an insignificant prize last time, but after the Harry Potter book came out, she was once again exposed and realized that she was still unlucky.
Song Yuluan suddenly stopped howling. "That's right. Senior Brother Ling, Senior Sister Yun, and I were among the first customers, but except for Junior Brother Wu, we all came away with nothing. Shopkeeper, please, at least give us a little hope, let us see the possibility of winning."
Lin Wusan nodded in agreement. She was also one of the many people who did not win the prize.
Feng Yuanning couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
This is indeed a very reasonable request.
Among those mobile games that require players to spend money to draw cards, some of them have retained the hard-working approach to some extent, allowing players to continue playing even if they are unlucky.
So, in order to ensure that the reputation of the reading room does not collapse and that all customers who come to the store are willing to continue paying, it is naturally better to leave a loophole so that customers can see the hope of persevering.
She suddenly thought of a theme garden she had seen before - a game where 100 people played chicken.
The reward for this theme courtyard is the Good Luck BUFF.
As long as you stand out from a hundred people with your strength and finally win the chicken, you will be given the BUFF of good luck.
However, the next theme garden she had originally planned was not this one. She originally wanted to choose a garden that would be helpful to her cultivation.
She also didn't plan to play a copy like the Hundred-Player Chicken Dinner. Otherwise, if she lost, wouldn't she be showing her weakness in front of the guests?
Moreover, whether a hotel can continue to operate ultimately depends on its own strength, not on vague luck.
Feng Yuanning hesitated and said, "Let me think about it."
She opened the system virtual interface and took a look.
Hotel upgrade conditions: A total of 29,011/100,000 guests have spent money in the hotel (cannot be counted repeatedly), and 3/3 of the tasks have been completed.
Mission: Entertain 5,000 guests from the Central Region (4841/5000) and unlock the hotel's special effect "Weapon Ban".
She opened the courtyard management interface and saw that 15 guests had already completed the thrilling amusement park challenge, but it was obviously still a long way from the goal of reaching 100.
Now, the guests were all attracted by the book "Harry Potter" and were no longer interested in the two bounty tasks she had issued.
Not only did few people go to the Central Region to attract new customers, but even the thrilling amusement park was almost deserted, which made it very difficult for her.
Feng Yuanning saw this, closed the system interface, and added: "If you perform well, I might consider giving you a chance to win the prize."
Ke Bingling immediately asked impatiently, "Shopkeeper, how do you want us to behave?"
No one wanted this opportunity more than she did.
Feng Faning smiled mysteriously and did not answer her question. Some words were too clear and might be inappropriate.
She turned and walked into the hotel lobby.
She was originally going to have breakfast, but when she went downstairs, she saw the fat boy pulling Song Yuluan to have a martial arts competition, so she came out to watch the fight out of curiosity.
Now, it’s time for her to have breakfast. After breakfast, she will go to Bingquan to practice.
After finishing her training at Bingquan, she would inspect the business conditions of the entire hotel, answer guests' questions at any time, and take action to check for omissions and fill in the gaps at any time.
At night, she would go to play the zombie dungeon, then take a shower and go to bed.
This was her daily routine, dull and boring.
However, seeing the hotel prospering every day and seeing the guests' surprise and delight after gaining something, she couldn't help but feel a strong sense of accomplishment.
…
Song Yuluan watched the owner walk into the hotel, stroking her cheek and pondering, "What do you think the owner would like us to do? A bounty?"
She looked at the bounty mission notice board placed in the gatehouse. The owner currently issued two missions, one was to go to the Central Region to recruit new customers, and the other was to challenge the thrilling amusement park.
Ke Bingling pondered for a moment, turned around and walked into the hotel, swiped her card to buy tickets, and entered the thrilling amusement park.
She no longer expected to win the lottery. Rather than relying on her own terrible luck, she would rather believe that the store owner would open a back door for her.
Song Yuluan looked at Ling Jing and the others, gritted her teeth and said, "Forget it, I'll go to the thrilling amusement park too."
Try going to the amusement park first. If you still fail, it won’t be too late to go to the Central Region to attract customers.
She walked into the hotel, and the other Jianshan disciples immediately followed, including the fat boy.
Bai Haoge sighed, turned his head and glanced at the attendant Mao Yi beside him, and ordered: "Mao Yi, go take a look nearby and calculate the date. Lu Xian should be arriving soon."
A few days ago, Eunuch Lu Xian sent him a letter through the Xuan Jing Division, informing him that he had already set off and was preparing to return to the Xianyuan Hotel with his skills.
Although I don’t know whether the owner still wants the skills, if Eunuch Lu Xian can return as scheduled, it would be a good thing better than nothing.
Mao Yi bowed his head in response to the instruction, muttering, "Ani Maji."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned from a living person into an eagle, which immediately attracted a series of exclamations from the onlookers.
"Can humans really transform into birds and beasts? Is this kind of magic actually possible?"
"How can a man turn into a bird?"
"How did this happen? It doesn't make sense!"
Someone else slapped himself and said in a daze, "Isn't this a dream?"
The goshawk landed on the ground, looking very majestic, but its expression clearly revealed a sense of helplessness.
He opened his beak, raised his head and looked up at Bai Haoge: "I... Sir, I will leave first."
The onlookers exclaimed again:
"You can even talk?"
"How on earth does a bird talk?"
“Incredible.”
Mao Yi flapped his wings and tried several times without much skill, and finally flew up crookedly, circling carefully at low altitude.
Bai Haoge stared at him intently: "What does it feel like to become a goshawk?"
Alas, he really wanted to experience such magical magic for himself, but unfortunately he was unlucky and could not understand anything.
"It's very strange, as if I really turned into a bird..." The goshawk tilted his head slightly, looking thoughtful, with human emotions in his eyes.
Of course, this goshawk was originally transformed from a human, so its behavior and expression are naturally very similar to those of humans.
But this still surprised all the onlookers. They all looked up and stared at Mao Yi intently, as if they were watching a popular star and wished they could replace him.
"Sir, I'm leaving now. Please take care." The goshawk stopped circling at low altitude and flew upwards over Changling County and headed north.
Bai Haoge watched him fly away, shook his head and sighed, then walked into the hotel lobby.
…
After flying over Changling County, Mao Yi continued to fly forward along the official road. Looking at the world through his eagle eyes, he could see scenes that were much farther and clearer than those of humans.
After flying for a while, he soon spotted his target and dived down immediately.
I saw Eunuch Lu Xian riding on a horse, carrying a huge sack on his back. Eunuch Lu Xian did not come alone, and a team of people from the Xuan Jing Division were traveling with him.
Mao Yi recognized at a glance that the young man with a strange appearance at the head of the group was Xuan Yi Hou, the chief of the Xuan Jing Division.
Xuan Yi Hou's real name is Yu Wenlin, and he is one of the three great masters of Tongxuan realm belonging to the court.
As for the other two masters, one has lived in the deep palace for a long time and will not easily leave the side of the current emperor; the other has been guarding the north for a long time and was named the Princess of War, and has been confronting the northern barbarians for a long time.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" A black crow perched on Xuanyi Hou's shoulder suddenly opened its mouth and screamed.
Marquis Xuanyi raised his eyes and looked upwards, his phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, his gaze as sharp as an eagle's.
Mao Yi suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, alarm bells blaring in his heart, as if he were being watched by the god of death: "I am Mao Yi!"
Although he was still some distance from the ground, he didn't care about that anymore. He quickly lifted the magic and transformed into a human form again, then fell to the ground like a kite with a broken string.
Seeing the person in front of him suddenly turn into a living person, Xuan Yi Hou's pupils contracted sharply. He subconsciously raised his hand, spread out his five fingers, and exhaled a stream of energy.
Mao Yi only felt a pulling force coming, and his falling speed suddenly slowed down. He was involuntarily pulled towards Xuanyi Hou.
Eunuch Lu Xian was stunned and dumbfounded. He could never have imagined that his colleague, with whom he had always worked, would suddenly appear in such a way.
In the blink of an eye, Mao Yi was restrained by Xuan Yi Hou and could no longer move.
Xuanyi Hou stopped his horse, stared at Mao Yi coldly, and looked him up and down.
The others immediately followed suit and reined in their horses.
"Terrible! Terrible! I'm scared to death! I'm scared to death!" The crow on Xuanyi Hou's shoulder moved restlessly.
Xuan Yi Hou glared at the crow and said sternly, "Shut up!"
The crow flapped its wings, flew to the top of Marquis Xuanyi's hat, and squatted there, without saying a word.
Mao Yi quickly explained, "My Lord, I am a guard of His Royal Highness Prince Chen. His Royal Highness sent me to look for you."
Eunuch Lu Xian finally came to his senses. "Mao Yi? Are you really Mao Yi? But why did you appear as a goshawk just now?"
Mao Yi explained: "This is a kind of magic, a legacy brought by the Fairy Garden Hotel from the outer world. It can transform people into any kind of bird or beast."
"Magic?! A legacy from outer space?" Marquis Xuanyi let go of Mao Yi, narrowed his narrow, long phoenix eyes, and looked down at him who was standing firmly on the ground.
Mao Yi calmed down and said, "My Lord, the Xianyuan Hotel is not far from here. You can find out for yourself if you go there. I will never lie."
Xuan Yi Hou took a deep breath, and his expression softened a little: "Well, can you transform into a goshawk again at this moment?"
"Yes. Animagi." Mao Yi chanted the spell and immediately turned into a goshawk again, flying up in the form of a goshawk.
Xuan Yi Hou couldn't help but stare at him closely: "Can anyone learn this kind of magic?"
"My Lord, it is true that anyone has the opportunity to master magic, but whether one can learn it depends on luck." Goshawk spoke in the same voice as Mao Yi.
Xuan Yi Hou nodded and said in a deep voice, "Let's go. There is no time to lose. Let's continue on our journey."
The group continued on their journey, with the goshawk flying beside them.
