I Live on the Land in Global Games-Chapter 471 - 454: Blockade Period
Chapter 471: Chapter 454: Blockade Period
Little Stone’s targeting was so precise that Mu Ying felt a bit embarrassed.
"Can Shi Yin still pass through such a long distance?"
Shi Yin’s running footsteps indeed slowed for a moment, but he didn’t panic at all. Instead, he changed direction, taking Mu Ying straight towards the wall.
The moment before they hit the wall, Mu Ying felt a faint dizziness, and then—
"Ah! A ghost is coming out of the wall!"
In another passage, a few players shouted as they ran back.
The so-called ghost was Shi Yin carrying Mu Ying.
They passed directly through the wall.
Mu Ying was truly amazed. The Time-Space Wolfman’s lineage was too formidable; this wasn’t teleportation but short-distance transmission!
With such an ability, the ghosts sent by Little Stone wouldn’t be able to catch him unless a certain number was reached.
Mu Ying secretly conveyed a message through Little Stone’s Avatar, telling it not to give him too special a treatment.
Under the siege of ghosts in a "normal" quantity, Shi Yin found the exit with Mu Ying.
After coming out, Shi Yin turned back into human form, and that’s when Mu Ying said, "Yin, this isn’t just an escape game, it’s also a treasure hunt; there were many treasure chests inside, and we didn’t dig out a single one."
Shi Yin was silent.
"Haha!" Mu Ying laughed happily.
Afterward, they teleported to the Undersea Corridor.
This year’s lantern festival was fully taken advantage of by the mermaids. Mu Ying had given them bioluminescent undersea plants, which were used to their fullest extent. Rather than a lantern festival, it was more like an exhibition of undersea plants.
The mermaids used stones, sea sand, and glowing plants to build various sceneries.
Not only the aqueous half of the Undersea Corridor had these, but the camp outside the protective shield of the Undersea Corridor also had them.
With the efforts of the mermaids, the seabed now had begun to resemble the beauty of the Emerald World’s seabed.
Mu Ying and Shi Yin took a stroll through the Undersea Corridor, then returned early to the Plantation to have a family dinner with the youngsters.
The youngsters came back one after another.
Mu Ying finally asked the question she had reserved all day, "Gungun, why were you eating pumpernickel bread in the arena?"
Gungun spread its paws: Just bored.
Mu Ying was speechless.
Perhaps it was no coincidence that Gungun could awaken the Fruit Pitcher Skill; its talent for mockery was ingrained in its bones.
After the family dinner, Mu Ying and Shi Yin didn’t go out again; instead, the two sat on the sofa in front of the fireplace, chatting.
"How long can you stay this time?" Mu Ying had been reluctant to ask this all day.
"I’ll stay till we’re done snatching red envelopes," Shi Yin said.
She had said while taking the Disguise Potion today, that she wanted to mingle in the crowd to snatch red envelopes.
Last year, she couldn’t disguise herself and felt too embarrassed to snatch the red envelopes she had issued.
Mu Ying nodded, slightly happy, "Let’s just snatch one, for a bit of good luck."
"Okay," Shi Yin said with a smile.
"Is it true that the stronger you are, the longer you can stay when you come back? Next time, don’t hesitate to wake me up earlier; I’m now an elf who doesn’t need much sleep. Even though I’m not yet of age, I only need one or two hours of sleep each day, and it will get even shorter in the future."
It would be a shame to sleep through your rare visits home.
"I might not be able to come back next New Year’s or even the year after. The next inheritance journey is too far; it might take two or three years." Shi Yin looked at Mu Ying, feeling reluctant to leave, but he needed to become stronger. Only once he was strong enough to fear no one coveting his lineage could he ensure the safety of those around him and avenge his parents.
"It’s okay, let’s work hard together!" Mu Ying really wanted him to come back, but she also knew the dangers of his bloodline, and understood that without becoming strong, they would always have to live carefully in disguise.
"But by that time, the world lockdown should have been lifted, and I can come back directly," Shi Yin said.
This was indeed unexpected news for Mu Ying. "Is there a specific timetable for the world lockdown?"
Shi Yin shook his head and said cryptically, "I once used an inter-dimensional transmission array in a medium-sized city."
After saying that, he winked at Mu Ying.
Mu Ying understood that the emergence of a medium-sized city could very likely be when Deep Blue Star lifts the lockdown and establishes connections with other dimensions and planets in the Multiverse.
No wonder there was a city-level territory competition, it was probably for this reason!
Mu Ying suddenly felt a sense of urgency.
Although she did not know how far her territory was from the medium-sized city, she had basically completed what needed to be done in this regard.
Next, the territory would develop step by step.
She had visited all the owned territories and still felt that Qingshan City had the best development prospects. Becoming a medium-sized city was probably just a matter of time.
Moreover, Shi Yin implied that this time might not be more than two years away.
"After the New Year, I really need to cultivate properly; I’m still too weak," Mu Ying said.
The world lockdown was actually a protection for them, the players from Deep Blue Star. Once lifted, who knows what kind of external impacts they would face!
This is a world with gods!
The two talked until midnight before Mu Ying and Shi Yin teleported together to the main territory, blending in with the locals waiting to grab red packets.
When the time came, she evenly distributed the red packets from her space ring throughout the main territory.
"Ah, ah, ah! The red packets are here!"
The crowd instantly erupted into chaos.
Everyone pulled out all the stops to grab the red packets.
With the experience from last time, the tricks this time were even more varied.
Many people recharged their teleportation function with money. As soon as the red packets appeared in the air, they teleported themselves into the middle of the red packets, grabbed a bunch, and screamed as they teleported back to the ground.
Mu Ying watched in astonishment; she and Shi Yin stood on the ground obediently. If things continued this way, they might not get a single red packet!
The two looked at each other, and Mu Ying had a burst of inspiration, used a Wind Creation Skill to blow the red packets higher into the air, and then teleported there with Shi Yin. That’s how they finally managed to grab a red packet.
After landing, they opened it to see.
"Hahaha, just one copper coin, that’s the guaranteed minimum!" someone nearby joked.
Mu Ying: "..."
That’s so frustrating! If only she knew, she would have grabbed a handful too!
After the red packet grabbing event ended, Shi Yin’s time to stay had finally come, and he had to leave.
The two returned to the Tree House in Elf Village.
After a simple hug, Shi Yin changed back into his Wolf Form, gave her a reluctant look, and entered the block transmission door.
The transmission door also collapsed, drifting to Mu Ying’s fingers, transforming into a ring.
The excitement seemed to leave with Shi Yin.
Mu Ying, still feeling quite energetic, teleported to the treetops by Moon Lake, sitting at the spot where she and Shi Yin had once listened to the elves play music.
The vigorous elves were still playing music.
