Chapter 87 Exploration Activities
When other players landed on Yelsun Island, were shocked, came to their senses, and then excitedly scattered around to explore the new map, the five of them were still stuck in place.
Logically speaking, Tong Wanwan had already surrendered to Elvis the first time she made the decision, so it wasn't surprising that she made the same choice the second time.
Here's the thing: Lily looked... expectant about her agreeing to the proposal.
On one side is Mr. Marshal, and on the other side are good friends.
However, if she agreed to Lily's team arrangement, Davina would not be able to spend time with the idol she had been thinking about for many days.
"Is this okay?" Tong Wanwan hesitated and said, "I'll be in one group with Lily and Mr. Ace, and Davina and Mr. Tracy."
Tracy lowered her eyelids, as if she had anticipated her decision, and whispered, "Okay."
"That's great!" Davina was surprised.
"As you say." Lily pursed her lips and agreed. Although she really didn't want Ace to get close to her friends, but... since it was Wanwan's decision, there was nothing she could do.
Tong Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief: "Then let's go."
Yersen Island is huge. Exploring it is like searching for sunken treasure in the ocean.
Ordinary players rely on luck to reach the island, searching the forests, flowers, and streams for something "off"—a white flash hidden deep within, a unique glint of special materials and blueprints. This light is so faint that it's easy to miss it without paying attention.
However, players who spend money like Tong Wanwan, Lili and Davina all have a material detector.
As Tong Wanwan walked, she pulled out two detectors from her virtual backpack. The detectors were about the same size as a computer, and when they were clipped onto her hands, she could see the location of the "white flash" on the screen.
"Mr. Ace." She turned around and waved. The man, who was originally a few steps behind her, walked closer obediently with his long legs.
"This is a detector. It can detect the unique white flash of new materials. Put it on." Tong Wanwan handed him one of the detectors. "By the way, not all materials that emit 'white flash' are special. There are also some very low-grade and cheap materials and blueprints mixed in."
"How can I tell?" Elvis asked seriously.
He could see that Wanwan was very interested in this game.
If a girl can find a very precious drawing, she will be very happy.
How to tell the difference? Tong Wanwan was stunned.
The materials and blueprints collected on the island don't display their value; you can only distinguish them by their appearance to find the truly high-quality and precious materials. As a result, many new players mistakenly bring low-level items back to town to sell, but the gold they earn in exchange for them may not even cover the island entrance fee, making it a waste of time.
At the beginning, she also accumulated experience bit by bit, from bringing back a bunch of useless materials and drawings to becoming a "treasure appraiser" with excellent eyesight.
Are we chatting again? Lily raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "Mr. Ace, if this is your first time, just take as many White Flashes as you find."
Before Elvis could reply, Tong Wanwan suddenly stopped where she was.
"I found an exploration spot. Look!" The girl perked up and moved closer to Elvis, who was closest to her. She showed him the device on her wrist. "There are a lot of 'white flashes' in this area. Do you see them?"
Tong Wanwan was very close to him. Because of the height difference, her long silver hair almost touched his chest, and he could see the small, cute hair whorl on top of his head. Even in the holographic game, she carried the fragrance of roses.
After a few seconds of silence, Ivis forced himself to turn his gaze to her hand and said, "I see."
"Let's go treasure hunting together!" Tong Wanwan was very excited.
Elvis responded cooperatively. It was strange, just seeing her happy face made him feel so good.
Lily, who was a few steps behind, was a little surprised.
Is it because he's new that she's taking such good care of him?
I always feel that... as long as Ace is around, Wanwan's attention will subconsciously be on him.
Following the direction indicated by the detector, the three found a hidden cave. Looking in from the outside, the cave was pitch black, with no sight of one's hand in front of one's face.
Lily: "Do you have 'fluorescent'?"
Tong Wanwan nodded, her eyes blank, and added the disposable light source prop "fluorescence" from the virtual backpack to her body.
The next second, Elvis' pupils shrank slightly as he saw a scene that he would never forget.
Because of the special props, the girl was illuminated by a hazy and translucent golden light. It was not dazzling, but enough to dispel the darkness around her, just like the shining stars falling continuously from the city in the sky.
Very beautiful.
And it is incredibly beautiful.
It doesn't look like a real person, but more like a carefully crafted false image that no mortal can match, a string of data that may disappear from the game at any time.
Subconsciously, Elvis reached out and held her arm.
The palm of his hand slightly increased its strength, and there was a slight tremor.
"?" Tong Wanwan was startled and unconsciously tugged at the corner of his sleeve. "What's wrong?"
Is it because she didn't warn in advance and was frightened by the sudden appearance of "fluorescence"?
"……fine."
She suddenly thought of a possibility and said hesitantly, "Mr. Ace, are you afraid of the dark?"
As soon as the words fell, the three of them were silent for a moment.
Lili held her forehead and took a deep breath: "Wanwan, how can... "
Before she could utter the word "yes", she saw the man nodded without hesitation, admitting it with a serious and upright look on his face.
Lily: “?”
Using Marshal Elvis's face, he lied to the little girl that he was afraid of the dark, and clenched his hands so tightly?
Is it fraud?
Lily turned her head suddenly and looked at Tong Wanwan, and found that there was not a trace of doubt in her eyes except for a bit of disbelief.
"Hmm..." Tong Wanwan took out another bottle of "Fluorescent" from her backpack and tapped Elvis' shoulder with her index finger.
The next moment, the same golden light as hers expanded from his shoulders until it covered his entire body. "Is this any better?"
Elvis curled his fingertips, and finally let go of the girl's hand that had been tightly held.
"Much better, thank you."
After saying that, the man took the lead and walked in front to clear the way, with a hint of guilt in his eyes.
What a failure, thought the Marshal.
If your attitude is too obvious...it will definitely be annoying.
But when I came to my senses, my body had already moved.
When he was with Tong Wanwan, he became jumpy and sometimes even completely lost his composure.
While walking in front, Elvis reached out and silently covered the shoulder that Tong Wanwan had poked lightly.
This kind of me...
Can you attract her?
No matter how outstanding a person is, the secret love stage may be humble and reserved.
Maybe it’s because: liking is unbridled, while love requires restraint quq
