"Today I overheard that the Ma family has fully entered the game. Their young master is a high-ranking member of a certain online game family. I am just a casual player. No matter how hard I try, I can't beat a big family."
Xiao Bai knew very well that powerful families were not something ordinary players could contend with.
His current level of success is only due to a bit of luck.
The gap between the two sides will only widen.
Gong Yan asked, "How do you exchange skills?"
Xiao Bai pondered for a moment and said, "When I logged off, the system asked me to choose a direction to enhance my skills. After that, I took a nap and suddenly learned it."
Zhou Yi raised an eyebrow.
This is clearly different from his method of exchange.
The system didn't let him choose a direction for enhancement; instead, it directly consumed evolution points to activate physical and mental enhancements.
"How many evolution points did you use?"
"Evolution points? I don't have any evolution points," Xiao Bai shook his head.
After a moment's thought, Zhou Yi guessed the general idea.
Some people are exceptionally gifted; even without evolution points, they can learn skills through the enhancement paths of the gods.
However, this involves a probability issue. Among so many players, there must be quite a few talented ones. Some people are lucky enough to grasp the concept after just one night's sleep, like Xiao Bai.
Others, however, were not so lucky.
Learning on your own is definitely not as fast as using evolution points to enhance your abilities.
Another one is that abilities enhanced with evolution points are significantly stronger than those that are learned independently.
Just like Zhou Yi's first enhancement, he is several times stronger than Xiao Bai now, both in terms of physical fitness and ability.
"What level are you in the game?" Zhou Yi asked.
Xiao Bai said, "Level 8."
An 8th-level mage, barely qualified to join the Starry Night Guild.
Zhou Yi pondered for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll give you a chance. The free event for the Demon Sealing Tower has started. If you can get 5 Blessing Gems within 24 hours and sell them to our guild leader at the market price, I can recommend you to the guild leader to join the Starry Sky Guild."
"My benefactor is a member of the Starry Sky Guild?" Xiao Bai exclaimed excitedly.
Zhou Yi nodded.
Gong Yan asked doubtfully, "Is the Starry Sky Guild very powerful?"
"Starry Sky Guild! The world's number one guild! More than just powerful, its guild leader, Caesar, is a beacon for us mages!" Xiao Bai said with pride.
It felt as if I was already a member of the Starry Sky Guild.
"I will definitely get 5 Blessed Gems! My game name is White Owl, please help me get a recommendation!"
Xiao Bai's face was full of determination.
He had made up his mind that even if he couldn't get his hands on it, he would buy it at a high price.
Now all he wants to do is improve his strength and then seek revenge on the Ma family.
Zhou Yi waved his hand: "Don't call me benefactor. My name is Zhou Yi. As for my game name, you'll find out later."
"Understood!" Xiao Bai wisely refrained from asking further questions.
The group arrived at the intersection, and Xiao Bai wanted to follow Zhou Yi.
However, it was clear that Zhou Yi didn't like being with a grown man, and the two parted ways.
Gong Yan found a car, avoided cameras all the way, and led Zhou Yi and Zhao Yiyi to a high-end residential area in the Seventh Ring Road.
A true detached three-story villa with an attached independent estate, luxuriously decorated.
"Sister-in-law, do you usually live alone?" Zhou Yi clicked his tongue and looked around.
Gong Yan seemed to have guessed his thoughts and said irritably, "Your brother is in the central urban area."
Zhou Yi was somewhat disappointed.
I was hoping to run into that kind old man with a disability.
She didn't harbor any deep hatred towards him; her adoptive parents had both died of natural causes.
Whatever grudges the previous generation may have, I won't involve myself. I won't get involved in any melodramatic stories like the Dragon King bravely storming into a wealthy family to show off and get slapped in the face.
“I only come back occasionally. The villa is too big, and I’m not used to living here alone.” Gong Yan carefully placed the already sleeping Zhao Yiyi into the bedroom and tenderly covered her with a blanket.
He kissed Xiao Yiyi on the forehead again.
The two returned to the hall.
Zhou Yi lay on the sofa, his hands behind his head, and let out a long, comfortable sigh.
Genuine leather sofas are still the most comfortable.
It would be even better if there was a lap pillow.
Zhou Yi looked at Gong Yan.
"Several groups of people are looking for me. You're letting me stay here. Aren't you afraid of getting implicated?"
"What's there to be afraid of? With things so chaotic outside, they definitely won't have much energy to focus on you."
Gong Yan crossed her left and right feet, propped her chin up, and looked at Zhou Yi.
She suddenly realized that her brother-in-law was actually quite good-looking.
His hairstyle was simple and neat, with bold, sword-like eyebrows and clear, bright, piercing eyes.
Her cheeks have distinct angles and a three-dimensional look.
Beneath his seemingly relaxed demeanor, one could vaguely sense that a fierce tiger was about to be unleashed.
Yes, he's a little bit more handsome than her husband.
The key issue is that the husband is all looks and no substance.
Unlike the younger brother-in-law in front of him.
Zhou Yi sensed that his sister-in-law's breathing was a little rapid. He looked up and saw that her face was flushed. He immediately asked with concern:
"Are you sure you don't need to go to the hospital? Won't your wound get infected?"
Gong Yan blushed even more, as if her secret had been exposed. "N-nothing, I have a way."
She got up and walked into her room with small, quick steps.
Leaning against the door, I pressed my hand against my wildly beating chest.
Ptooey! Ptooey!
It's not springtime yet, so why is my heart racing so easily?
Composing herself, Gong Yan took out a tube of milky white medicine from the safe.
Return to the living room.
The moment the milky white medicine was opened, Zhou Yi's nose twitched slightly, and he instantly sat up straight, staring intently at the test tube.
What is this thing?
It has a faint, refreshing fragrance; I can't quite describe the exact taste, but it makes me feel very thirsty and want to drink it.
