Valkham.

There are small colorful flags hanging everywhere in the city, and the streets are prosperous.

The bustling crowd stopped in front of each stall to buy their favorite products.

As the last day of the Alliance Calendar 1408, the residents of Valkham are enjoying the joy of the festival.

Compared to previous years, Valkham has changed a lot.

The most intuitive thing is the prosperity of the street.

Nowadays, as long as professionals become adventurers, they can basically have a certain source of income.

Moreover, because adventurers often collect many rare and wonderful things when they go on adventures, many merchants who hear the news rush over, which promotes the development of Valkham.

Nowadays, many people on the streets are wearing casual clothes.

But if you look closely, you can see that quite a lot of people have adventurer nameplates on their clothes.

It's not just Valkham, it's the same in Grae City.

Now, almost all the big cities in the Kingdom of Nergal have adventurer's guilds, and the number of adventurers has exceeded 200,000.

The high mobility of adventurers promoted communication and development among cities.

It is also for this reason that the lords of various places allow the Adventurer's Guild to settle in.

Even in the territories of the nobles, there are adventurer guilds.

As the current lord of Valkham, Laura knows the changes in Valkham best.

Valkham is the birthplace of adventurers. Every day, many adventurers from other places come to visit Valkham despite the long journey.

"My Lord, I'm back from the guild!"

Phoebe walked into Laura's office and said, "Many adventurers from the guild have taken on the job of festival security. Salo is leading the team himself, so we have almost enough manpower now."

"It's a rare holiday celebration. Thank you for troubling President Salo."

Laura tucked a strand of blonde hair behind her ear and hesitantly asked, "Um... President An Nuo still hasn't come back?"

“No!”

Phoebe spread her hands and said, "Forget about that big devil. Lord Xue and Lord Lu haven't come back yet. Don't they know that tomorrow is New Year's Day?"

Laura glared at Phoebe and said, "How can you say that An Nuo is the devil? Believe it or not, when he comes back, I will tell him this."

"My Lord, Lady Lola, I was wrong, please don't do that!"

Phoebe seemed to have been stabbed in the vitals, and quickly ran to Laura and begged for mercy.

"If he knew, I might die inexplicably while walking, or be poisoned while eating!"

Seeing Phoebe's horrified look, Laura said unhappily, "Annuo is not that bad!"

Boom boom boom!

The butler Scott knocked on the door a few times and said softly, “Lady Laura, everything is ready for the year-end festival. You should get ready.”

"OK!"

Laura stood up from behind her desk and stretched.

The girl's graceful curves are fully displayed.

Compared to before, the girl has grown a lot.

Growth in every sense...

Steel Fort.

While Valkham, thousands of miles away, was celebrating with lights and decorations, the dwarves here were cheering for the meat in their lunch.

The dwarf blacksmiths in the various blacksmith shops in the Iron Fort were busy at this time, and the sounds of hammering hardly ever stopped.

Last night, City Lord Owen threw a large number of mid-level materials and equipment requirements to them, and then asked them to create magic equipment as quickly as possible.

Knowing that these equipments were forged for Anor, even though Owen said they didn't have to work today, the dwarf blacksmiths still started working that day.

"Master, it's snowing again!"

Liz, wearing a white fluffy coat, built a snowman in the yard with Ella.

However, Annuo was closing his eyes and sensing the earth element.

Last night, he used all the low-level souls he had accumulated to strengthen other souls.

In the end, only ninety fourth-level summons were added.

It takes three hundred third-level souls to strengthen one third-level soul into a fourth-level soul. This condition is quite harsh.

But there is no use for Annuo to keep these low-level souls.

If I exchange it for ninety fourth-level summons, I will at least be qualified to become Anno's summons.

Now, Anno has 1 seventh-level summoned creature, 75 sixth-level summoned creatures, 212 fifth-level summoned creatures, and 304 fourth-level summoned creatures.

The remaining 408 seats are vacant.

If a seventh-order warrior below level 33 comes to challenge Annuo in a duel, Annuo can guarantee that the opponent will not be able to return!

"Alas, every time I practice skills, that's when I become autistic."

After sensing for the whole morning, there was a thick layer of snow, but An Nuo, who didn't sense anything at all, sighed.

"Where exactly is the earth elf? Dig a hole in the ground and then I lie in it. Will the earth element be more concentrated?"

When An Nuo was thinking about some evil ways, Yin Mu came running over happily.

"President, look what I brought you!"

Yinmu took out a piece of barbecue from her backpack slyly, handed it to An Nuo like offering a treasure, and said, "Happy New Year in advance, President. I grilled it. It's delicious. Eat it while it's hot!"

An Nuo took it and smelled it. It was indeed fragrant. He tore it and asked, "What kind of meat is this?"

Yinmu whispered, "The meat of the whirlwind sheep!"

An Nuo was stunned when he heard this.

Just in case, he asked, "Isn't this the one I asked you to raise before?"

"It's not Xiaohua, this is an adventurer. When he went out to hunt dragon scorpions yesterday, his whirlwind sheep was killed by the dragon scorpion. Because I helped him, he gave me a piece of the lamb leg.

Alas, if dragon scorpion meat wasn’t poisonous, we could have eaten dragon scorpion meat tonight.”

“Oh, I see!”

Anno took a bite.

It smells really good.

He took out the Qingyue wine that he had packed up from the Sagunto Tavern and poured a glass for Yinm.

After drinking a glass of wine, An Nuo immediately put aside his worries about cultivation.

Seeing Yinmu staring at the wine jar eagerly after finishing drinking, Annuo smiled and filled it up for her.

"Let's have a drink today!"

After two glasses of wine, Annuo felt that the Qingyue wine was worthy of the 100 gold coins it cost per jar, and it was very strong.

After drinking a few cups, although An Nuo was not drunk, he felt his vision was a little blurry.

He looked up at the snowflakes falling in the yard, wondering what Xue Feibai and the others were doing now.

"They should all have returned to Valkham."

Annuo poured himself another glass, then raised the glass to the snowman that Liz, Ella, and Sasier had built, which looked a bit like him, and said, "Here's to everyone!"

As soon as he finished saying this, An Nuo was stunned.

Bang!

The bowl filled with wine fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"President, why is it so wasteful!"

Yinmu, who loves alcohol, looked at the wine on the ground with regret.

But An Nuo seemed not to hear anything and just stood up and walked towards the snowman.

At this moment, in Annuo's field of vision, several white dots the size of marbles kept circling around a snowman as tall as an adult.

The moment these white dots entered Annuo's field of vision, [Observer] had already displayed the information.

Name: Ice Elf
