◎Who says the demons won't have any more evil intentions here?◎
[Baili Xi: The Ruined City event will begin next week. Do you want to participate?]
Ruined city...
Xia Li is lost in memories. This is an exploration and monster-killing activity that brings together various environments and terrains. It is open every Wednesday and Sunday, with one map open each time, and the time limit is 8 hours.
Successfully completing the required tasks for each map will earn you team points. Points accumulate continuously and are calculated every three months, with rankings based on the highest points.
The top three will receive various generous rewards, and the fourth to tenth place winners will also receive considerable prizes. As for those who finish outside the top ten, they will be randomly given various small gift packs for participation.
In short, as long as you actively participate, the official will give you rewards even if you are the last one.

Xia Li replied.
[Baili Xi: Okay, I'll wait for your news]
After closing the dialog box, Xia Li remembered that there had been no movement on the four high-sensitivity suits she had ordered from Cheng Tianxia, so she sent the other party a message.
Half an hour passed, and she had collected all the plants needed to make the potion, but the chat box still did not respond.
Perhaps too engrossed in his equipment to be distracted, Xia Li thought for a moment and decided not to disturb him for the time being. She had originally asked Cheng Tianxia to help her get high-agility equipment just to make things easier. If she truly didn't have any, she would find another way to make up for it.
Ever since the collaborative dungeon ended, Xia Li noticed that Morgan had been in a bad mood. Even the croissants she made in the morning these past two days were not as fragrant as before.
"Master, what happened in Yakao Village that day?"
It was a new day again. Xia Li sat at the dining table, chewing on bread and asking questions even though she knew the answer.
That day, Fakula was also in Yakao Village, evacuating the people on the Queen's orders to protect their lives. Morgan, having just gotten the news, followed suit.
The key point is that he didn't help much by following him. Instead, he kept circling around Fakula and causing trouble for him.
Fakula was already busy and exhausted, and when he saw Morgan's ungrateful look, he immediately lost his temper and scolded him in front of all the players and NPCs.
This happened in the previous life, but at that time Xia Li didn't know that the person being scolded was Morgan.
Morgan's face darkened and he ignored her.
"Master, did you make Fakula angry?" Xia Li looked at him with a smile.
Morgan twitched his lips and said, "It seems that the accommodation fee I charged is not high enough to shut you up."
Xia Li still had a smile on her face: "Do you want to win Fakula's heart again? I can tell you."
"You?" Morgan looked at her in surprise, then snorted coldly, "I've known her for so many years and she didn't know this. What do you, a little brat, think you'd know?"
"Flowers." Xia Li said obediently.
Morgan tutted his words. "Don't be fooled by her pastor appearance. She has a boyish personality, carefree and likes flowers? Don't tease me."
"She likes the flowers in the cold regions of Seville." Xia Li smiled meaningfully.
"What?" Morgan's expression suddenly froze.
The atmosphere was quiet for a few seconds. Xia Li noticed that Morgan's eyes moved slowly a few times, as if he finally remembered something from his forgetful head.
"How could she... Seville..."
The Sevilla Frigid Land is a high and cold place far away from the Xia continent and across the sea from the northeast corner of Xia. It is covered with ice and snow all year round. Most plants cannot survive there. Only a flower called Rudbeckia can survive in the extremely cold Sevilla.
Fakula has been living in the royal city, protecting the queen and her people, but in fact she is not a Shia, but comes from the cold land of Seville.
In the royal city, "Sevier Frost" has always been a taboo word that cannot be mentioned.
"Just because Fakula can't show her longing for her hometown doesn't mean she has forgotten the past," Xia Li analyzed to Morgan.
In her previous life, she was a disciple of Fakula and only heard from others that Fakula was entangled with a poor and incompetent man. However, she never expected that the man who was being pointed at was actually the alchemist Morgan.
Fortunately, Fakula did not dislike Morgan. Although he had ridiculed him harshly in front of her a few times, what was revealed between the lines was not disgust at all, but rather some...goodwill?
Xia Li didn’t know why Fakula didn’t accept Morgan in her previous life, but since she was Morgan’s disciple in this life, she would certainly help her master and former master!
Xia Li looked at Morgan expectantly.
"I understand!" Morgan clenched his fists tightly, a look of determination rising in his eyes, "I'll leave for the cold land of Seville this afternoon!"
[King: Do everything in our power to stop the demons' curse ritual]
The task given by the queen is still lying quietly in the task bar.
The reason why it had been put off until now was because Xia Li knew that only when the matter of the linked copy was completely resolved would the information related to the task be revealed.
Now that the sea water in the village of Akau has been dispersed by the goddess Hera, it is time to complete the task assigned by the queen to stop it.
The tasks in Miracle are like this, interconnected and interrelated. They may seem insignificant or even unrelated on the surface, but in fact, every NPC and every task in the game are connected by an invisible logic network.
For example, after the Yakao Village was completely wiped off the map in the previous life, the demons sent troops to occupy the northwest corner of the Xia continent half a month later.
At that time, her level was not high, and she was a priest with the support of a very weak guild. Therefore, she did not directly participate in the defense battle. Instead, she defended the royal city at Fakula's request to protect the queen and the people of the royal city.
The battle was difficult and lasted for a long time.
Many players had been in Miracle for several months, and everyone thought that the confrontation would continue forever. During a key regional battle, a player who had received a mission from the Queen to stop the demon finally remembered that he had not completed this mission. So he belatedly collected information and finally successfully stopped the demon's curse ritual before the royal city was captured.
Without the bonus of the curse ritual, the power of the demons was greatly reduced. The players of the Xia continent finally found an opportunity to fight back, successfully defeated the demons, and drove them back to the Saye continent.
So in a sense, the Xia continent in the previous life was not peaceful. In addition to completing dungeons and quests, players also had to constantly fight against demons, which was exhausting both physically and mentally.
While recalling the events of her previous life, Xia Li rode on Xiaoguai and rushed back to Yakao Village.
The Xia continent is surrounded by the sea on three sides and backed by mountains on one side. The directions facing the sea are southwest, northwest and northeast. Among them, the northwest has the lowest terrain and is most vulnerable to sea water invasion.
Yakao Village is a village located in the northwest corner of the continent.
In this life, Yakao Village was rescued by everyone. The first thing Xia Li thought of was that there must be some evidence related to the mission of stopping it left here.
So she decided to start her inspection from here.
As of now, the sea water on the northwest coast has receded for three days, but the mud and sand brought to the village by the sea water backflow is still being cleared. Some of the soil has gradually become hard and cracked under the scorching sun. The villagers are now cleaning it diligently with shovels.
A pair of familiar footprints suddenly caught her attention!
The feet were slightly larger than those of an adult man, and were slightly sunken into the soil.
It's him!
That witcher with great archery skills!
He is here!
Her heart started beating wildly, perhaps because she smelled a clue to the mission, or perhaps because she thought about facing a strong man who was far higher than her level. In short, Xia Li could now clearly feel the tension and excitement in her mind.
Where? Where would he be now?
Xia Li quickly picked up her pace and prepared to follow the direction of the footprints, but she didn't expect that the footprints stopped halfway.
Unless he had wings, it would be impossible for him to disappear on the spot.
Xia Li focused her eyes and looked around quickly.
The footprints disappeared at the beginning of the woods. She looked up and calculated the distance between the footprints and the nearest tree. It was about 5 meters. With the help of some tools, it was not impossible to jump directly from the ground to the tree and then move forward by stepping on the branches.
She immediately ran to the bottom of the tree, raised her eyelids, and carefully observed whether there were any marks on the branches.
A small hole came into her sight.
About seven or eight meters above her head, a small hole inexplicably appeared on a horizontal branch.
The hole was not big, it was cone-shaped, and the inner wall was smooth. It was obvious that it was not pecked by a bird, but rather it looked like some tool had pierced a branch and hooked inside.
It's the witcher's arrow!
Xia Li's eyes narrowed. Yes, he could tie a rope to the tail of the arrow, shoot the arrow, nail the arrow to a high branch, then hold the rope and swing directly to another tree without leaving a footprint.
The Demon Hunter was on guard against her.
Xia Li narrowed her eyes and immediately started running. As she pushed off the ground with her feet and exerted force with her body, she easily jumped onto the tree.
Standing on the tree branch, Xia Li looked at the lush greenery ahead, calmed down, and thought carefully. There are so many exits in Yakao Village. Why did the Demon Hunter choose to escape through the northernmost forest?
North...north of Yakao Village...
It's Monte Sentry!
Monte Outpost is not far from Yakao Village, just to the north of the village, separated from the cliffs of Saye Continent by a narrow and turbulent Monte Strait.
Due to its rugged terrain and harsh environment, this area is basically a zone that is not managed by either the Saye Continent or the Shia Continent.
In fact, it’s not that Queen Shia doesn’t want to take care of it, but it’s mainly because she is willing but unable to do so.
Throughout the history of the Xia continent, several queens had sent troops to build outposts in order to keep an eye on the movements of the demons and prevent sneak attacks.
However, after only three months of use, Monte Outpost was abandoned by several queens.
The reason is simple: the environment here is extremely harsh, with short days and long nights. Coupled with various maritime disasters such as storms and tsunamis, 60% of the soldiers who came to guard the royal city were killed in just three months, and 30% of the remaining 40% fell ill.
The same is true for the demons. They even try to cross the strait by relying on their racial talents.
But without exception, the demons also suffered heavy losses.
Both sides' plans were forced to shelve decades ago.
However, the most dangerous places are often the safest corners.
The strait has been left unattended for decades. Who says the demons won't have any evil intentions here again?
