Chapter 194: Chapter 183: Today’s Lanxing (3K)_1

Lanxing, within a rented stand-alone villa.

Buzz

A faint ripple in space expands, from which a tall figure steps out.

“Haven’t been here for a few days, and there’s dust all over the place again.”

Mu Yuan uses his template power, and breezes emerge from his fingertips. Under his delicate control, this breeze sweeps across the room, stirring up the dust on the floor and desk, causing pencil holders to roll off and papers to rustle.

After a while, a dust-filled grayish-black wind ball flew over from a distance and fell into a trash can far away under his guided finger.

Right, I forgot to take out the trash a few days ago.

Mu Yuan sighed.

His attention has fully shifted to the Eternal World, just like those old lords and senior lords. The difference is, most of the old lords have set up their own teams and companies in reality. In contrast, the lonely Lord Shepherd doesn’t even have a maid, failing to take care of things in the real world.

Facing this situation, lords who are Whales have backgrounds, having formed teams early on.

The lords of humble origin are also eligible to recruit other players to work for them. However, the players they can recruit are limited in capability and not particularly loyal.

As for Mr. Mu, he certainly can’t just casually hire players.

“For me, of course, it’s more comfortable to use 100% of my own people. Besides, I don’t have to pay extra salaries.”

He had the idea of summoning a few competent soldiers to the real world to handle affairs for him.

For this, Mu Yuan specially printed ‘Xuan Country Geography’, ‘Lanxing Chronicles’, ‘Modern Clothing’, ‘Xuan Country’s Daily Greetings’ and other data on special paper and ink, and sent them into the Eternal World.

Now, he can pick one or two elites to come to reality to work.

Mu Yuan opens the panel, scans the list of units, and ponders, “There are quite a few units in Tianyuan that have awakened their self-consciousness. But most of them lack common sense. The real choices are only a few.”

Sophia, Daisy.

They have real-life experiences after all, so learning about unfamiliar things is much quicker than Lu Liu, Seventeen, and others. They won’t make comically mistaken common sense like Seventeen.

The most suitable person is actually Isloa. A few days ago, she came out and used her special capturing method to replicate some movies from Lanxing. She projected them in the Tianyuan Territory, adding some color to the entertainment life of the territory.

Isloa, the all-purpose tool girl.

However, Isloa is busy at work. Summoning her to reality would be a waste.

Mu Yuan considered and communicated with Sophia via spiritual link. They both indicated that they could.

“Lord, pick me-ah~!”

“No, you can’t, your score on the modern theory exam is not as high as mine.”

Daisy folded her arms and tilted her neck slightly upwards, her fluffy fox tail swinging back and forth, she laughed proudly.

However,

The fox tail is quite conspicuous.

There are indeed some fantasy creatures on Lanxing now, strutting down the streets. Mu Yuan recently saw a scantily clad elf girl in a TV commercial—it’s unclear whether she’s a real elf or a player who’s gradually becoming more elvish after using a high-order elf heritage.

Fantasy creatures aren’t that strange on Lanxing, but they’re somewhat conspicuous and…

It would damage Mu Yuan’s reputation. How would he chat with other female players in the future?

He could only tell Daisy, “Next time for sure. When the work calms down, I’ll take you guys on a team-building trip.”

Daisy: 0r2.

Thinking of this, Mu Yuan began the summoning ceremony.

Perhaps because Sophia has already received his evolution blessing and their contact has become extremely close, the process of summoning her across the border is quite easy.

Mysterious array patterns spread out, and in the blink of an eye, Sophia, dressed in a black dress and wearing a linen sun hat, appeared in the basement of the villa, looking around with wide eyes.

After a while, she came to her senses, lifted the hem of her dress slightly, and curtsied, “Good afternoon, Lord.”

Mu Yuan took Sophia out of the basement and gave her several tasks with a few sentences.

“Yes, your top priority is to learn. Learn to use tools like a computer, and collect information and purchase various Remnant Souls through forums.”

Handing these tasks over to the assistant, Lord Shepherd can relax a lot more.

He also has an idea to set up a company like the old lords—the core staff will, of course, be 100% his own people, but some peripheral personnel can be recruited to expand the channels for making money.

There’s no hurry.

Leaving the little assistant to study on her own, Mu Yuan stepped out. He had agreed to meet with Old Brother Mai Wa today to make a big deal about the Remnant Souls.

After jogging out of the neighborhood, Mu- the First of the New Generations- Small Town Level Lord- Excelling with Numerous Troops- Yuan skillfully scanned the code, rode a shared bike and left.

It’s a good thing Sophia didn’t see this, otherwise she would probably be speechless.

This is also why Mu Yuan thinks there’s a need for a fair amount of manpower and show in the real world. Business is hard to do without enough pretense.

After a few months, Xuan Country has changed quite a bit.

On the distant big screen, an ad is playing. The spokesperson for the body wash is not a celebrity, but a double-winged angel, whose skin is as white and smooth as milk. A pure and holy glow emanates from her body…

‘XX Body Wash, even angels say it’s great.’

Mu Yuan: “?”

Isn’t this false advertising!

He was very certain. Angels are legendary creatures, even rarer than giant dragons. They are at least of Epic Tier creatures. Mu Yuan wouldn’t say that no one in the whole of Tai Xuan possesses such epic units, but they certainly wouldn’t be put out to film commercials.

However, the name of Angels is indeed well-known. Scaring ordinary people who only know a little about the Supernatural World seems to be extremely effective.

“Angels…”

Here was a manifestation of the great changes that had taken place on Lanxing. The celebrities of old no longer held the allure of the past. Instead, present-day endorsements and product placements were either done by ‘angels’, ‘high elves’, or a number of famous transcendent beings.

In the streets, he spotted individuals in training suits or armor from time to time.

However,

“It has become much more desolate than before, it seems because of the increasing number of cases.”

He also saw some individuals wearing black vests, likely player enforcers, patrolling the streets occasionally.

The situation was evidently becoming graver.

He wanted to lend a helping hand, but as a weak, insignificant small-town- level lord as he currently was, he was powerless in the face of such a world­wide transformation. All he could do was to quickly enhance his strength. Otherwise, even being a lord, he could be overturned like a flat boat amidst a cataclysmic event in an instant.

Before he realized, Mu Yuan had arrived at his destination.

A restaurant operated by a retired lord.

Here he met Old Brother Mai Wa, and through Old Brother Mai Wa he was introduced to a commissioner from the chamber of commerce.

From this commissioner, Mu Yuan intended to purchase a thousand Militia’s Remnant Souls.

“A thousand Militia’s Remnant Souls? Young Lord Mu certainly is ambitious.”

Minister Chen was a man of the world, he certainly knew that buying this many Remnant Souls wasn’t for recruiting purposes. The greatest likelihood was that they would serve as sacrificial offerings or consumables.

Whether it’s sacrifice-oriented treasures or buying a thousand of them at once, both indicated that this young lord was ambitious and capable.

He was likely among the top-notch individuals in the Golden Rankings.

Considering the higher difficulty of making it among the Golden Rankings this year, Lord Mu Yuan’s potential was not inferior to the new talents in the Rankings of past years.

Minister Chen said with a smile, “Our One-Handed Chamber of Commerce, of course, has a thousand Militia’s Remnant Souls. However…”

His words made a turn, “These typical one-star Remnant Souls are considered consumables and are not often stockpiled. It can only be brought together from all various places, which requires quite an amount of time…”

Mu Yuan picked up the implication of Minister Chen. He had done his homework prior to coming here.

Simply put, the profit from the individual sales of regular one-star Remnant Souls was too low. This type of business wasn’t one the large chambers of commerce liked to engage in. These corporations would rather sell a handful of rare Remnant Souls.

After some bargaining, Mu Yuan bought 70 sentinel remnant souls, 60 archer remnant souls, and 7 Nun’s Remnant Souls from Minister Chen.

Total worth of 132 Soul Crystals!

“Hiss     ”

Old Brother Mai Wa, at the side, gasped.

What a grand transaction! The rumor of Mu Yuan getting the backing of a wealthy woman was indeed accurate!

Minister Chen was taken aback that the young lord in front of him made such a big purchase so readily. The thought of wondering whether the young lord could afford the amount of goods now crossed his mind, and he felt obliged to enquire again.

“Sure, we can sign the contract and pay the deposit at any time.”

Minister Chen wore a smile, “Good! Since friend here is so generous, I shouldn’t take advantage. Let’s round down the number, I’ll only take 125 Soul Crystals from you.”

The most expensive of them were indeed the Nun’s Remnant Souls.

Nuns were amongst the rare and valuable kind of soldiers in the rare one-star category and were hard to come by outside. Since he had the opportunity to buy them here in the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce, he…well, it was mainly because he couldn’t resist the urge to splurge, so he went on a shopping spree.

Having witnessed how hundreds of nuns in the Land of Challenge enhanced the view…no, how grand and spectacular the Power of Holy Light was, Mu Yuan was rather envious.

Nuns were the lowest-ranked soldiers with the Power of Holy Light.

He might not have the chance to assemble an army of hundreds of nuns, but to train ten Holy Light Master Sacrifices to form a luxury girl band didn’t seem difficult.

When the human race had more soldiers, there would be Evolution Points. Then, one would be well-to-do.

Isloa would also be able to evolve soon. He believed that once she had evolved, her work efficiency could improve significantly.

Once the considerable transaction was settled, Mu Yuan began to eat.

Even though the dishes here couldn’t compare with those in the restaurant within the secret realm of the Lord of Han Yue City, whether in terms of the ingredients or culinary skills…they were not bad, given that he didn’ t have to pay for the meal.

Old Brother Mai Wa commented, “This year’s newly-appointed lords are said to be doing well. Within the chamber, we’ve re-ranked the top ten newly- appointed lords. Aside from the mysterious Big Boss Tianyuan firmly holding onto the first position, the rankings of the remaining new lords are fluctuating significantly.”

“Really?”

Mu Yuan hadn’t really paid attention to these.

Speaking of which, was the ‘new rookie top ten’ leaderboard before the trial also ranked by the One-Handed Chamber of Commerce? To be fair, the accuracy of the information was quite high, only that they left him out.

“For instance, Lord Shuang Tian who is now ranked fourth, he is a dark horse that rapidly came into the limelight.”

Mu Yuan attempted to recall but realized he didn’t have much impression of him. He then heard Old Brother Mai Wa continued, “Previously, he ranked 24th on the Golden Rankings, quite a distance away from the top ten. However, a few days ago, he encountered Lord Da Ri in the special Secret Realm of Dueling Souls. They had a Battle of Wills in which Lord Shuang Tian crushed Lord Da Ri with three consecutive victories.”

“In that battle, each of Lord Shuang Tian’s deputies was extremely powerful, all of them had stepped into the Artistic Conception Level, or even achieved the Small Achievement Artistic Conception Level. In terms of the strength of the deputies, some analysts within the chamber believe that Lord Shuang Tian is even stronger than Wangba and Huan Chao.”

Mu Yuan sighed in admiration and he casually asked:

“How did he do it, to have so many Artistic Conception Level experts?”

Old Brother Mai Wa shook his head.

At this point, Minister Chen started talking, “Lord Shuang Tian probably discovered some historical remains of Artistic Conception. These are huge opportunities. Sometimes, opportunities can be even more important than background and talents.”

“Of course…”

Minister Chen’s words took a turn, “Opportunities also require strength to secure. For instance, these historical remains of Artistic Conception are generally guarded by powerful creatures. The fact that Lord Shuang Tian discovered and seized one of these opportunities shows his ability.

“Lord Da Ri also once discovered a chance in the form of a ‘Historical Remains’, a special area that reemerges due to instabilities in the time-space continuum. It’s an illusion-like and tangible reality where explorers have the chance to retrieve historical treasures from it. Unfortunately…”

He shook his head, “At that time, Lord Da Ri lacked the strength, not only did he missed the opportunity, but his army also suffered heavy losses during the exploration.”
