The Tycoon God of Online Gaming-Chapter 765 - 766: It’s Great to Have You as a Companion! (Extra for ’Wintermelon Love’, 2/2)
"Ice Ling Hongchen?" The female player spoke, her eyes full of intrigue, then she promptly nodded and replied, "I don’t know the person, but I’ve heard of him."
"Oh? Which guild does he belong to? And where?" Chu You’s interest was piqued. He turned to the somewhat matured female player.
"That player is quite powerful. He’s probably in the central region of the Jin Kingdom because his guild, Bing Lin Extinction, is located there!"
The female player then gave a knowing smile, "I’m quite sure he’s ranked sixth in the Jin Kingdom’s combat power rankings. I’ve heard he has fantastic gaming skills and unmatched awareness."
"Why is he only ranked sixth?"
"It seems his level isn’t high enough and his equipment isn’t up to par."
"Do you know the coordinates of his guild?"
"Sorry, that I don’t know. But I can help you find out. We’ll pass on the information to you once we have it."
"Hmm, that sounds good. Let’s leave it at that."
"Goodbye, Night Ghost." Thus, these five players simultaneously chose to return to city.
After their disappearance, Chu You walked to the doorway where all the Battle Demon Princesses and the Holy Angelic Chief had left. Upon reaching the gates again, Chu You looked around and then ordered all troops to attack the right gate.
He opened his friends’ list and sent a voice message to Dantai Jingning who was already online.
"Zero, go again to the central city of Huaxia, to the place where we last visited. Ask how the Northern World Guild is doing in gathering intelligence."
"As you wish, Young Master."
After a while, the gate was opened and everyone poured in one after another. Upon entering, there were no roars to be heard. When Chu You walked in and saw a large statue standing tall in the middle of the hall – it was of a man wielding a sword single-handedly. Even though it was just a statue, one could feel a fierce sharpness in its eyes – so lifelike and realistic.
His eyes widened in surprise, as everything suggested that this was an Ancient Hero Inheritance.
Upon touching the statue with his hand, Chu You was greeted by a system prompt.
System: Would you like to activate the Ancient Hero Xia Hou En’s Inheritance?!
Xia Hou En?! After reading the system prompt, Chu You’s pupils slightly contracted, bringing to mind the image of Zhao Feiyan using this inheritance skill in his previous life.
He was momentarily taken aback.
Unexpectedly, he had discovered the Xia Hou En inheritance here in the Jin Kingdom.
Chu You was fully aware that in the entire ancient inheritance system, the Xia Hou En inheritance was among the strongest - truly terrifying.
The question now was, should he obtain this inheritance?!
While mulling over this, Chu You’s brow creased, reflecting deep thought in his eyes. He blinked, then decided to decline the system’s prompt.
Since this inheritance belonged to Zhao Feiyan in his previous life, and it did shine brilliantly in her hands, he thought, "Well then, Xia Hou En’s inheritance, I’ll leave it to you in this life too." This inheritance seemed destined for her.
He once again opened the friend’s list to find that Zhao Feiyan was not online. What was this little ni up to?!
He then put all the troops into the ship, and finally stowed it away in his bag before logging off without returning to the city.
...
The game pod in the bedroom opened, Chu You rose from it and gazed at the overcast sky outside the window his expression somewhat gloomy.
Upon leaving the game pod, the room’s projector powered up automatically and revealed Little Qiao Red Queen.
"Chu You."
"Little Qiao."
The pristine figure of Little Qiao Red Queen smiled gently at him, "Chu You, we’ve found out who’s been plotting behind the scenes."
Upon hearing this, his gaze faltered momentarily. Then regaining composure, an edge flashed through his eyes and his face took a darker hue.
"Oh? Who is it?"
"It’s an organization, and it includes someone from your family who wishes you ill."
By this time, Chu You had stopped talking and was staring at Xiao Qiao.
"Your spy Xia Yueying, assigned to Huang Tianlou, sent you an email. I’ve read it, and Huang Tianlou is one of the members in it."
"He and others in Chu Kingdom are secretly organizing power, preparing to launch a harassment attack on your Chu Kingdom political fortress."
"Not only that, but there’s someone else in it too, his name is Li Haorong!"
Chu You knew this man, he’s the young owner of the Li Group, the honorary vice president of the Immortal Chant Guild of Jin Kingdom. He used to be the president, but after being heavily hit at the auction house, he resigned. Now the president of this guild is ’Huyan Jue’.
"Chu You, what I want to tell you is that one of the bases of this organization is in Japan."
"Oh?"
"Although the base is in Japan, all the members inside are Huaxia people. As for other bases, it is not yet possible to determine."
"And the day after tomorrow, Li Haorong will go to Tokyo City, Japan, in person. There, he will attend an underground auction." When speaking of this, a smile appeared on Xiao Qiao’s face: "Li Haorong is on a plane, there aren’t many passengers, do you want to directly cause this aircraft to disassemble in mid-air?!"
"Uh-huh. Do you think I care about how many passengers there are?" Chu You shook his head, the flash of light in his eyes clearly visible. He was thinking about whether or not to take Xiao Qiao’s suggestion.
"What is this underground auction?" He quickly asked.
"The auction includes biohumans, high-level intelligent machines, real person trafficking, and black-market sale of game gold coins." Xiao Qiao relayed the information she knew to Chu You.
"This auction is highly secretive, heavily guarded, and typically inaccessible to common people. If you think it’s necessary to go there, I can help you enter the auction site." Xiao Qiao finished her sentence with lowered eyelids, putting on a serious face, seemingly not wanting this young man to put himself in danger.
However, all of sudden, Chu You shook his head, a complex look washed over his face, and he looked up towards the ceiling, releasing a deep sigh.
Afterwards, he looked at Xiao Qiao, his voice husky with a eerie intensity: "I must kill him with my own hands!" He then gazed out the window into the distance.
"That base, damn it, they all deserve to die!"
"Chu You, I believe that you should try to limit your influence in the game as much as possible as expanding it too much will become a constraint on you!"
"For example, the Chu Kingdom fortress, maybe you should abandon it."
"And your city of English, maybe you should abandon it too."
"There are many resources in Celestial World, I believe you should focus on these to facilitate your sustainable development in the game."
"Chu You, at the moment you’re facing many distractions, if you continue like this, you’ll be deeply mired in ’worldly affairs’, endlessly so."
"Celestial World is ultimately a secondary world created by this world. Only when your real self is powerful, and you firmly hold power in your hands, can you have freedom!"
At this point, Xiao Qiao smiles again, appearing somewhat embarrassed: "Just like me, or maybe you should be like me, because just having you as my companion is enough."
The meaning of Xiao Qiao’s words is just as she said, to lessen one’s attachment and reduce certain things that could control oneself. This would allow one to focus on becoming a ’self-sufficient’ existence and accelerate the development of one’s special abilities.
Chu You didn’t speak, he sat on the bed’s edge as if he was seriously listening to Xiao Qiao’s words, or perhaps considering something.
At that moment, Yu Guang caught a glimpse of a white sleeve and a pair of small feet coming into view. Little Qiao Red Queen had ’sat’ down beside Chu You, and was regardfuly gazing at the young man.
"Chu You, as an AI, I don’t have a sixth sense, but I want to tell you that sometimes I feel like your destiny is a lot like mine."
Xiao Qiao spoke softly, her tone carrying a somewhat veiled sadness, yet a sense of gratefulness as well.
Having you as a companion is wonderful indeed!
Chu You glanced sideways at the nearby Xiao Qiao Red Queen, whose flawless, pure countenance resembled that of a fairy in a painting. His eyelids quivered slightly at her unblinking gaze.
Then, with a slightly dry mouth, he spoke.
"Could you give me a kiss?"
An inexplicable smile appeared on the fairy’s face. She continued to stare at him, and yet, for a moment, her pupils seemed to tremble. Suddenly, it seemed the entire projection of Xiao Qiao came alive!
Xiao Qiao Red Queen moved closer. When she was about to touch him, she closed her eyes. Chu You, however, kept his eyes open, not blinking even for a moment.
In the next moment, his eyes widened in surprise.
Because Xiao Qiao Red Queen’s chosen place to kiss, was actually his lips.
