Chapter 144



◎Messenger Les's pigeon◎

The Demon Tribe's annual Revival Festival is about to be held on the Saye Continent.

Unlike any previous year, Collins decided not to set any restrictions on any race during this year's Resurrection Festival. No matter whether they are elves, goblins or humans, as long as they come to the Saye continent with a friendly attitude, they will be welcomed with the most sincere heart.

Although there are still a small number of old orcs on the Saye continent who hold opposing views and firmly believe that other than the demons, any other race in the world is not good and must be forcefully stopped, their voices are already considered decadent and backward in the eyes of the new generation of demons. Therefore, they do not take these minority opinions to heart at all and continue to happily set the atmosphere on the continent under the leadership of Collins.

The Spade Kingdom, which had been staying in the Saya Continent and had not returned, also got involved.

They got along well with the demons, and through their interactions with the players, the demons gradually realized that they had no ill intentions.

The relationship between humans and demons will never be as described in history, with hatred for each other and no peace.

Looking at the scene below the building where humans and demons were arm in arm, talking and laughing on the street, Collins couldn't help but smile.

How I wish she could be standing next to me at this moment, enjoying this rare scene with me.

Collins thought subconsciously.

Then put the idea into practice.

He wrote the invitation letter by hand, folded the envelope by hand, and then found the demon messenger and asked the messenger to deliver the letter.

"Did she get it?"

The Resurrection Festival will be held tonight, and he promised that he would go to pick her up in person.

The messenger nodded respectfully. "I personally handed it to the human messenger. They said it would arrive soon."

"That's good." Collins narrowed his eyes. "Saddle the horse. I'll leave the city later."

Tost Star.

The areas severely damaged by the star beasts and the long worms were restored with the joint assistance of several major families in Area A, including the Leng family's brothers and sisters and Hei Ye.

The Long family, the largest family that had always been admired by the people, didn't even say a word this time.

"I heard from my friends in the game that the old man from the Long family died a long time ago. It's just that Long Yan was afraid that the old man's downfall would affect him, so he kept it a secret and didn't tell anyone in the guild."

Xia Li stood on the street and heard several passers-by talking.

"He didn't tell anyone, so how did you know?"

"Because someone saw with their own eyes how Old Man Long died."

"Ah? How did he die?"

"He was beaten to death by his own subordinates, right in the Long Building. I guess they had some sort of argument, and guns were reportedly used, but the subordinates were kind enough to show some respect by not firing back. But he was an old man, and how could he defeat his younger subordinates with just his fists and feet? So he was killed in a few hits."

The passerby who was speaking made a snapping gesture with his hand on his neck.

The person who heard the news hissed, as if feeling a chill running down their spine, but their expression quickly returned to normal. "He deserves it. Who allowed him to experiment on the young star beasts? If it weren't for him, how could we have been attacked?"

"That's right. The Long family has monopolized most industries and deprived ordinary people of their right to survive. Everyone has long been resentful of them. I think this is really satisfying, hahaha..."

The two passers-by walked further and further away. Xia Li glanced lightly in the direction of the Long Building in Area A, then walked away.

The restaurant was easy to find. Xia Li, with her hair tied in a ponytail and wearing a white T-shirt, the simplest jeans and white sneakers, and a small casual shoulder bag, took a deep breath and slowly pushed open the gorgeous revolving glass door of the restaurant on the first floor.

Baili Xi said that the entire first floor was booked, so anyone other than the waiters entering or leaving were members of their Fengyun Tianxia Guild.

Xia Li walked into the hall from the revolving door and slowly scanned the people in the hall.

The players who were originally chatting happily in the hall were stunned when they saw her arrival.

"That seems to be... Boss Lihua?" a girl asked in a low voice.

"Wow, this is so different from what I imagined," another little girl responded.

"I thought it looked cool enough in the game, but it turns out it's even cooler in real life..."

The girl who was speaking couldn't find the right words to describe it for a moment.

Everyone pinches their face to some degree when entering the game, and the direction of the pinch is usually opposite to their real self. For example, someone who looks cute in real life might be a "Shamatte" in the game. And vice versa.

People in the guild have always thought that Xia Rilihua was just not talkative, but she was not aloof. The reason why she was admired in the game was actually largely due to her impressive record in the game.

But once the halo of the game is removed, the awe in everyone's heart will disappear a lot.

However, only then did they realize that they were completely wrong.

The girl coming towards him had almost no expression on her face. She glanced around the scene, seemingly casually, but her dark pupils seemed to reveal an aura that made people naturally retreat.

The ponytail tied at the back of her head swung rhythmically from side to side with her steps. It was not deliberately controlled, but it made everyone feel the oppressive aura of its owner.

The aura of the whole person is completely different from theirs!

"It's over. I agreed to wait for the favor of the big sister, but suddenly I was so scared that I wanted to wrap myself in a blanket and get out at night..." The girl who had proudly expressed her own ideas in the guild before looked at Xia Li timidly.

"It's not that scary, is it?... I've been kind enough to teach you some techniques."

Although she said she wasn't shocked, the female player who responded next to her swallowed her saliva.

The atmosphere fell into silent awkwardness for a moment.

Xia Li had never attended such a large gathering in real life. She was an orphan and grew up in a slum. Being alone was always her daily life.

So she had no idea how to deal with today's meeting.

But she will try to act easy-going, like a child from an ordinary family.

She walked towards the edge of the table, taking deep breaths and trying to relax herself.

Suddenly, an arm hooked from the back of her neck to the front.

"Hey Big sis!!!"

It's easy to guess who the guy who speaks so passionately is.

Xia Li's face darkened and she was about to pull her hand away from the steamed fish.

At this time, several other people came over one after another.

"You're here, Ali." Bai Guo said with a smile, and at the same time, she considerately pulled down the arm that was wrapped around Qingzhengyu's shoulder.

Xia Li gave him a grateful look.

"You are Sister Lihua! Hello, I'm Ice Cream~" Pastor Ice Cream stood next to Baiguo, looking a little shy, but his eyes were full of unstoppable joy.

The ice cream in real life looks as cute as in the game, and its voice is soft and sticky, which makes it very appealing.

Xia Li greeted her with a smile.

Others, including the windmill and the compass, also came up one by one to introduce themselves.

When it was Yuese and Lingde's turn, the sharp-eyed Xia Li discovered something.

"Oh my?" She slowly relaxed and showed a standard melon-eating expression.

Yuese sheepishly pulled her hand away from Lingdu's, walked forward, and gave Xia Li a big hug: "Finally meeting you, Ah Li! You're just as pretty as I imagined!"

Xia Li was about to say thank you politely when the other party suddenly changed the subject and started touching her body.

"Oh, Ali, you're too skinny. How on earth are you supposed to kill monsters in the game with such a small body?"

Xia Li: (~ ̄▽ ̄)~ Just... fight monsters like this?

"No, no, you have to sit next to me today. I'll help you pick up some meat! You have to eat more. Girls are cute when they have some meat on them~"

Xia Li: "...Okay."

Enthusiasm comes suddenly like a tornado.

More than ten people were talking to each other, and although Xia Li had no chance to say anything the whole time, the atmosphere on the scene became harmonious naturally.

"That's right, this is the kind of guy who can be found in Fengyun Tianxia! Come on, family members, let's raise our glasses and shout out loudly, 'For Fengyun, for miracles'!"

"cheers!!!"

Through the clear glass in her hand, Xia Li saw that everyone's face was filled with joyful smiles.

Not only Fengyun Tianxia was beaming with joy, the Saye Continent was also filled with celebrations. Regardless of whether they were demons, humans, or other races, everyone put on festive holiday outfits, ready to welcome the grand festival after nightfall!

Except for one person.

"Hasn't she received the letter yet?"

Collins sat on the rooftop with a depressed tone.

There were constant sounds of laughter and joy coming from the nearby streets, but none of it had anything to do with him.

The messenger was very conflicted and embarrassed.

This was the 101st time Collins had asked this question. He had been asked this question repeatedly since he came back from the Xia continent.

Although he didn't mind answering Saye over and over again, he felt very uncomfortable seeing the other person's miserable appearance.

That human alchemist really didn't take the invitation seriously. He actually dared to not give face to Lord Saye!

I will never treat her well again! Humph! The messenger thought angrily.

"Respected Lord Saye, the messenger from the royal city of the Xia Continent told me that the letter has already been delivered to her."

In fact, he wanted to say, Lord Saye, don't hang yourself on a tree! There are so many single girls of the right age in the demon tribe, anyone is more attractive than that guy!

"Oh, I see."

Collins moved his lips, his pupils looking at the night sky empty and lonely.

Why……

The Courier looked at Collins and sighed.

Forget it, let him spend the holiday with their lonely Lord Saye tonight~

As soon as he sat down next to Collins, the latter suddenly stood up and shouted, "Pigeon! Les, look, is that your pigeon?"

Les quickly supported himself and stood up. He blew a whistle, and the pigeon turned in the sky and landed obediently on his little arm.

"Open it quickly. Is this her reply?"

Les did not dare to delay. He pulled out the small box on the pigeon's claws as quickly as possible and opened it to take a look.

"Lord Saye..."

"What's wrong? Tell me quickly." Collins stared at Rice anxiously.

"It's not her reply..."

He is responsible for the correspondence of the entire Saye City, and the letter in his hand belongs to someone else.

After saying this, Rice lowered his head, not daring to look up at Collins's expression...

The air became completely quiet.

It was so quiet that the rooftop and the street seemed to be separated. Below was the bustling world, and they felt like they were in an ice cellar.

Les couldn't help but sneeze.

"Oh, I'm sorry, Lord Saye..." He took a few steps to the side, but didn't get any response from Collins.

If this continues, their great Lord Saye might be in trouble!

Les felt that he could not sit idly by, so he mustered up the courage to take another step forward.

"Lord Saye, please allow me..."

Before he finished speaking, a spark of hope suddenly appeared in Collins' eyes again!

"It's a pigeon! Les, look and see if that's your pigeon!"

Rice: ( ̄_,  ̄)

"It's... it's mine..."

So the 102nd whistle was blown and the 102nd letter was drawn out.

He was already numb, but he still pretended to be full of expectations!

The light green envelope slowly unfolded, and after seeing the sender's name on the cover, Rice's pupils slowly widened in disbelief.

"It's hers! Lord Saye is hers!!!" he shouted excitedly.

"W-what?!"

When a person is tired of hearing the same sentence and suddenly hears a different answer, the person's initial expression must be shocked and confused.

Afraid that Collins wouldn't believe it, Rice strode forward and stuffed the letter into his arms, his face almost filled with tears of joy: "It's really her! Lord Saye, look, it's the alchemist Xia Rihua!!!"

Oops, that's not right.

Rice wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and suddenly realized.

He's so excited!
