They announced their living address.
Li xiaonian turned to look at Cai Jiaqi and said,”Guild leader Cai, do as you please. Just treat this place as your own home.” He paused for a moment and added, ” people strive to climb higher, and water flows lower. Choosing a suitable Guild to join is very important to me and the Guild. What do you think? ”
!!
Cai Jiaqi’s face was full of grievance, but she was helpless. She sat down on the sofa,”I haven’t called you by your name yet. By the way, let me introduce myself. I’m the president of the breeze Guild. The current breeze Guild has more than 800000 core members. Large guilds don’t lack blacksmiths. If you join a large guild, the treatment you get may be good, but the freedom you get will not be that easy.”
“You’re right,” li xiaonian nodded. I’m Li xiaonian, from the distant outer space.”
Pressing the service button, li xiaonian called for the dedicated service staff, the blue cat. bring me some snacks and drinks for the reception. Bring more. I need to entertain important guests.
“Yes, sir,” the blue cat replied.
After the call, li xiaonian continued to entertain Cai Jiaqi and her assistant.
“Guild leader Cai, in holy light City, are there many forces that have established guilds in star field?” Li xiaonian asked curiously.
The corners of Cai Jiaqi’s mouth twitched.
How could it not be a lot? There were as many as the hair on an ox.
There were countless top powerhouses in holy light City. In order to obtain domain coins, all the big shots had established their own guilds, which were called guilds.
To put it bluntly, it was a disguised gold-collecting team that was dedicated to collecting gold for the top powerhouses.
“Mr. Li, can you tell me your request? What are the conditions for you to join our breeze Guild?” Cai Jiaqi changed the topic, trying to see if she could get this blacksmith before the competition appeared.
Money?
She definitely didn’t lack blacksmiths, but as long as she had the right to live in holy light City, she definitely wouldn’t be interested.
“My situation is a little complicated. Although I’m a blacksmith, it’s not as perfect as you think,” li xiaonian said after some thought. if I tell you about my situation, you might not like me, ” li xiaonian said with a bitter smile. as for the reason, we’ll talk about it later. If you can accept it, I’ll naturally join your Guild. If you can’t, I have nothing to say.
He only had half a year to live. The top guilds didn’t have a good reason to accept a dying man. After all, the benefits were too low.
“Oh?”
Cai Jiaqi’s eyes flickered.
As long as it wasn’t a domain coin or any other treatment, everything was fine.
Half an hour later.
Another group of people had arrived.
Three people from the Shanhai Guild had come.
When these three appeared, Cai Jiaqi didn’t feel anything, but when one of them appeared, it caused her to feel even more pressure. Gai xinshou, the representative of the GE Yi family.
Seeing that the time was almost up, those who were in urgent need of the blacksmith Union’s strength had all come. If they weren’t in urgent need, they wouldn’t have paid so much attention to the internet.
Li xiaonian stood up and said, ” everyone, it’s not very right of me to use such a method to attract all of you here. I’d like to apologize to all of you here. I’m really sorry.
Just as he finished speaking, Gai xinshou said domineeringly, ” “Let’s not talk about empty promises. We are all honest people. As long as you are willing to join our family, the settling-in fee will be 100 million star dollars, and you will get a villa. Other than that, in” star field,”we can provide you with gold equipment that will double your training speed. The conditions are very simple, you just need to be efficient for our family for 100 years.”
Hearing this, the representative of the Shanhai Guild felt his heart retreat. If it was welfare, they could not afford it.
Li xiaonian’s forehead was full of black lines, but he still explained in embarrassment, ” “Everyone, since you want me to increase the efficiency of your guilds, please be patient and listen to me.”
Without waiting for Gai xinshou to speak, li xiaonian hurriedly said, ” “I’m not short of money, but I’ve been infected by the poison Demon Star master’s soul poison, and I only have about half a year left to live. The only chance of survival now is to see Her Majesty the Queen. So, my conditions are very simple. Whoever can make Her Majesty the Queen save me, I will work for that Guild.”
“……”
“……”
“……”
Everyone’s face froze.
Gai xinshou, in particular, was slightly angry. f * ck, how dare you trick us. Don’t let me see you again. Otherwise, I’ll beat you every time I see you.
With that, Gai xinshou left angrily with his bodyguards.
The representative of the Classic of Mountains and Seas also twitched his mouth and turned to leave.
Li xiaonian’s heart sank when he saw everyone’s reaction.
In the blink of an eye, only Cai Jiaqi and her assistant were left at the press conference.
Li xiaonian seemed to see hope in her staying. He couldn’t help but ask,”Guild leader Cai, do you have a way?”
Cai Jiaqi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry,”you should’ve said this earlier. Your current actions feel like you’re lying.” Alright, you’re an outsider and you don’t know. We can’t blame you.”
After a short pause, Cai Jiaqi continued, the Guild established by Her Majesty the Queen is managed by manager li. The Guild’s name is the Holy Light Army. If your talent is outstanding enough, you can go to the Holy Light Army’s inquiry office and see if they are willing to recruit you, an outsider.
as for meeting Her Majesty, unless you can pass the test of manager Li, you will never be able to see her Majesty.
After saying that, Cai Jiaqi stood up and looked at li xiaonian with a meaningful look. good luck. I hope I can see you again next year.
An outsider wanted to meet her Majesty? Impossible, even if he was a blacksmith, it would be the same. It should be known that Her Majesty the Queen had no lack of blacksmiths under her command.
“……”
The house was empty.
Li xiaonian didn’t expect such a situation to occur. He immediately canceled his job-seeking notice.
Without any hesitation, li xiaonian took a hover taxi and arrived at the external information Office of the Holy Light Army.
Outside the information Office, there was a door card that needed to be scanned.
Whoosh …
Scanning identity information.
A cold mechanical prompt appeared at the door.
the Holy Light Army’s encampment forbids outsiders from entering. Please leave immediately. Otherwise, you will be treated as an invader.
Li xiaonian’s expression changed drastically upon hearing the notification.
It was only at this moment that he finally understood the meaning behind Cai Jiaqi’s eyes when she left. It was clear that he was dead for sure.
At the same time, the soldier who was standing straight stared at li xiaonian with an unfriendly look, one hand holding the long knife at his waist.
Li xiaonian’s heart skipped a beat, but he still braced himself and said, ” “Senior, although I’m an outsider, I’m only a junior blacksmith in star field. Can I join the Holy Light Army?”
“Get lost!” The soldier said coldly with a murderous look.
“……”
Li xiaonian was instantly defeated.
He could feel that if he continued to stay, he would die.
Far away from the Holy Light Army’s camp, li xiaonian took out his satellite communicator and dialed the front desk of the breeze Guild.
They were unfamiliar with this place, and Cai Jiaqi was the one with the best attitude. At the moment, he could only try to ask for help and see if he could join the Holy Light Army through her.
The call was made to the front desk and then transferred to Cai Jiaqi.
Without waiting for the other party to speak, li xiaonian’s actions were Swift and decisive. a piece of gold equipment. Can you introduce me to the Holy Light Army, guild leader Cai? ”
Caijiaqi was just about to reject, but her words were stuck in her throat.
Taking advantage of the other party’s hesitation, li xiaonian threw out another price. I’m not happy with you. My talent as a blacksmith is very strong. Although I’ve just been promoted to a basic blacksmith, my success rate of forging green-copper equipment is as high as 60%. If I’m given more time, my success rate will definitely be 100%. Especially, I’m very confident in advancing to an intermediate blacksmith.
Cai Jiaqi’s heart was moved, and she remained silent for a long time before saying,”The price isn’t enough. I’ll put it this way. Just because you’re poisoned by soul poison doesn’t mean you’re innocent. It’s also possible that you’re the poison Demon Star Lord’s chess piece or executioner. If you want to assassinate Her Majesty, even if the success rate is low, my family will be implicated if I help you.”
“What kind of price do you want?” li xiaonian’s face froze.
“What can you offer more?” Cai Jiaqi retorted.
I will forge three pieces of equipment for your Guild every month for 10 years. Other than [ blacksmith’s heart ], the only valuable item he had was the lightning rod.
However, the lightning rod was a chaotic ultimate treasure and could not be easily revealed.
The corner of Cai Jiaqi’s mouth twitched. if you join the Holy Light Army, you’ll be their exclusive blacksmith. How could you have the time to help us forge weapons? ”
After much consideration, Cai Jiaqi finally gave up on this tempting reward.
The reward was high, but the price was too high for her family to bear, because she knew nothing about li xiaonian.
“I’m sorry, I really can’t help you with this,” Cai Jiaqi said.
Without waiting for li xiaonian’s reply, Cai Jiaqi cut off the communication. At the same time, she blocked li xiaonian’s contact number to avoid further harassment.
“Damn it!”
Li xiaonian cursed under his breath and clenched his fists.
He strolled on the streets alone.
Holy light City was very prosperous, and everyone’s faces were full of smiles. Some were shopping in twos and threes, and some were eating out with their families.
Especially when they saw children open their arms and let their mothers carry them.
Li xiaonian suddenly felt extremely lonely.
He was homesick.
However, when he thought about how he didn’t have much lifespan left and how the earth was still in danger and would be destroyed soon, his heart became unusually heavy.
Looking up at the sky, she could not help but tear up.
“Are we just going to accept our fate like this?” li xiaonian couldn’t help but Mutter.
The lightning rod was his final trump card. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not give it out easily.
“There must be some other way.”
Li xiaonian wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes and thought quickly.
I’ve survived all the storms in the past. I can’t be stumped by a small thing.
Thinking about it, the only person he could ask for help was Grina.
Although he was not well-liked, in order to survive, so what if he was thick-skinned? dignity could not be eaten.
Just as li xiaonian was about to call Grina.
Suddenly, from the corner of his eye, he saw two women walking out of the Holy Light Army’s encampment. The woman in the lead was wearing a very conventional professional military uniform with short hair, while the other long-haired woman was quietly following beside her.
Li xiaonian’s body trembled when he saw the long-haired woman.
For some reason, he could clearly sense that the long-haired woman behind him must have an extraordinary identity.
This was because snow dance had this kind of temperament. There was nobility hidden in her calmness. If one had not been in contact with her for a long time, one would not have been able to sense this faint change.
“Whether it’s an illusion or not, I can’t miss this opportunity.”
Li xiaonian gritted his teeth and followed the woman who was about to leave his sight.
“My two sisters.” Li xiaonian cupped his hands and said.
The two women in military uniforms frowned.
“What’s the matter?” the leading woman asked coldly.
Since he wasn’t expelled on the spot, li xiaonian felt that he was already halfway to survival.
“Sister, this little one’s name is li xiaonian, and I come from a distant place in outer space. Ten days ago, this little one was fortunate enough to advance to a basic blacksmith, and my success rate in forging bronze equipment is as high as 60%. I want to join the Holy Light Army, and I wonder if senior can introduce me to him.”
Li xiaonian quickly expressed his thoughts in one breath.
The two women were slightly surprised.
“If it’s really as you say, the blacksmith’s talent is indeed extraordinary, but how do you want to prove it?” the long-haired woman chuckled.
Li xiaonian thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, ” sister, I haven’t left the novice village yet. I can control my in-game body in ‘star field’ and go to the area where the Holy Light Army is located to take the test. At that time, whether I’m telling the truth or not, it’ll naturally be clear at a glance.
The two women looked at each other.
Finally, the long-haired woman smiled and said, ” okay, then you should leave the novice village and head to glory city. If you can pass the test, we will consider introducing you. If you can’t pass, then we can only say, sorry.
Although the Holy Light Army rejected outsiders, if it was a genius, it was naturally another matter. As long as Her Majesty the Queen was willing, investigating the identity of an outsider was naturally easy.
“Thank you,” he said. “Sister, can you leave me your contact number so that we can contact each other more easily?” li xiaonian asked.
The long-haired woman thought for a moment and finally gave li xiaonian her number. She then added, ” “I’m gu Haixi. When you arrive at glory city, you can leave me a message.”
“Alright,” he said.
Li xiaonian thanked him again and hurried back to the hotel.
There wasn’t much time left, he had to hurry to glory city. As for the soul poison in his body, since Cai Jiaqi was so afraid of it, he naturally wouldn’t mention it. He could only prove his own worth, and when the time came, the effect would be better.
After li xiaonian left, Fu Lin looked at her best friend. “You trust him that much? It’s only been ten days since he advanced to a basic blacksmith, and his success rate has already reached 60%. Even the blacksmiths in our holy light Army aren’t that powerful.”
Gu Haixi laughed. whether it’s true or not, we’ll know once he arrives in glory city. If he’s really that powerful, our holy light Army will have another powerful blacksmith. On the other hand, it’s just a waste of time.
“That’s true.” Fu Lin nodded.
……
Ding …
The system said, [ you have entered star field. Have a good time. ]
Li xiaonian opened his eyes and quietly packed his luggage. He placed all the supplies he could bring into his bag. He only gave up when his bag was full.
The bags in Star Domain were not big, only one cubic meter. The number of things they could hold was very limited. Moreover, the weight of the items they carried would be added to their bodies, which was very disadvantageous in battle.
After walking out of the blacksmith shop, li xiaonian pushed down the rental house on the spot.
After settling the procedures, he headed straight to master fire’s Smithy.
A year had passed, and the blacksmith apprentices in the blacksmith shop had changed a few new faces, while his familiar senior brothers were still learning here silently.
When they saw li xiaonian, Zhu Tian Fu and the others immediately greeted him warmly.
“Oh, isn’t this our genius blacksmith, shadow? What kind of strong wind is blowing today? he actually came back.”
“Junior Brother, seeing you in such a hurry, could it be that something good has happened?”
Li xiaonian squeezed out a stiff smile. senior brothers, I’m here to say goodbye to everyone and teacher. I’m going to leave netherworld village.
Everyone’s mouth was half-open, and they were somewhat dumbfounded.
no way, Junior Brother. If I remember correctly, you haven’t left the safe zone of the new netherworld village for such a long time. You haven’t familiarized yourself with the surroundings and you’re leaving already? ”
yes. Zhu Tian Fu nodded his head. if you’re afraid of grinding blood, there’s no need for that. I’ll help you think of a way.
Li xiaonian shook his head. it’s not about mo Xue. I have an urgent matter to attend to. I have to leave.
“This … Alright, everyone has their own aspirations.” Phil sighed.
Phil was the one who couldn’t bear to part with li xiaonian the most. This year, he had earned quite a lot of money by working with li xiaonian.
Li xiaonian’s sudden departure was equivalent to cutting off his source of income.
