I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means - Chapter 151

Chapter 151: Chapter 147 Key Training Targets

Should I give it a try? After all, I’m already in Bright City.

As Mo Yun pondered this, the barrage of messages continuously egged her on.

“Alright, brothers, once we make it out alive, let’s try Gedo Street.”

By the time Mo Yun “finally made it through the hardships” and reached the shop on Gedo Street, there were hardly any players left inside.

The players from before had already received tasks from the Guild Manager and were racing against time to grind away.

No matter what, one must first accumulate enough experience to advance to become a Professional, for that’s when the real game begins.

The players of Bright City are undoubtedly lucky, as they can seamlessly integrate into the leeks field prepared for them by Lord Lis. But for those born in other places, things are uncomfortable, because Professional Skills and Knowledge aren’t so easy to come by. They might as well start off by slowly working for money. This was also the most criticized point when Divine Revelation first launched in her previous life.

After players advanced to Professionals, they could easily join the various natives’ forces and factions. Then it was a step-by-step process to complete quests, increase faction contribution, and exchange for subsequent professional knowledge and skills.

Therefore, Lord Lis directly reduced the cost of Professional Skills learned by players from the White Dove Chamber of Commerce and himself to a minimum, which was equivalent to directly intercepting the recruitment channels of most forces in Bright City.

Mo Yun walked into the White Dove Chamber of Commerce’s shop, and the Manager on duty immediately registered her as a Guild member after seeing her attire.

Lord Lis had already instructed that anyone dressed in similar clothes was to be unconditionally accepted.

Mo Yun looked around and didn’t spot the NPC Lord Lis that the players had talked about. She approached the Manager she had just spoken with and asked,

“Uncle, may I ask if Boss Lis is around?”

The Manager, recognizing the cute girl he had just registered, became even more amiable.

“Lord Kane’s whereabouts are unknown at the moment. If you’re not in a hurry, you might wait here for a while and see if he turns up.”

“Oh, okay.”

Thanks to her own advantages, Mo Yun received a task as a signboard girl from the Manager, which required her to put on the White Dove Chamber of Commerce’s uniform and attract customers at the entrance while also attending to players.

For every player she recruited, Mo Yun would receive a reward of one hundred experience points, which was much better than other tasks like moving goods or cleaning.

And as time went by, more and more players arrived on Gedo Street. With the ability to see players’ names floating above their heads, Mo Yun quickly amassed enough experience required to become a Professional.

However, she had yet to catch a glimpse of Lord Lis.

The barrage of comments set in the lower right corner of her field of vision struck up a conversation:

“Damn, the hostess wearing a maid outfit is just too good!”

“That player named ‘Moonlight Birdwatching’ was so funny!”

“So bored. Can’t the host do something else?”

…

Mo Yun ignored these people. To be honest, her live streams usually maintained this style and she didn’t go out of her way to please the viewers.

At that moment, a male player named “Zhao Zhao” walked in, who was also rather handsome.

“Hello, is this the White Dove Chamber of Commerce?”

Zhao Zhao asked. He was quite curious as to why this player named Mo Yun was standing there, dressed in a black and white maid outfit.

“Yes, please follow me.”

Mo Yun didn’t mind; she was used to being stared at when she went out.

After helping Zhao Zhao complete his registration, Mo Yun pocketed another hundred experience points.

Zhao Zhao looked around and after hesitating for a moment, asked Mo Yun,

“May I ask if the NPC who hands out Silver Level tasks is still here?”

“Oh, he’s not here; I’m waiting for him too,”

Mo Yun didn’t hide anything and casually pointed at the people rolling on the ground in the corner across the street. They were all waiting here as well.

Zhao Zhao didn’t find it strange and was about to say something when a handsome young man walked down from the second floor.

Isn’t that Lis?

———–

Lis had spent a good amount of time on the second floor familiarizing himself with the system update’s new modules. He had also redesigned and adjusted his Professional Skills and Knowledge learning interface, as well as the Secret Store, when he noticed more players had gathered downstairs.

He was still quite enthusiastic about sending out more quests to expand his ‘crops’ of players.

Just as he descended the stairs, he saw two players rushing toward him. Scanning them quickly, the names on display were “Mo Yun” and “Zhao Zhao”.

Hmm? These two names seem familiar!

Lis thought for a moment and then remembered these two had also been quite famous in the previous life’s game.

Zhao Zhao, a Gold-level Puppet Master, ranked among the top ten players in Hua Xia, was most notable for being a professional gamer with Changge Game Club. However, for reasons unknown, he had been booted from the previous game. After rising again in “Divine Revelation”, he rejected all the lucrative offers from clubs and guilds and instead formed the “Embers of the Fire” club, which didn’t do too badly in competitions.

Mo Yun, a Gold-level Mage, was a top female live-streamer in “Divine Revelation”, famed for her good looks and exceptional skills. Most professional gamers said she had the strength to compete with male professionals, but for some reason, she had not chosen to become one.

Sss~ These are two premium-quality ‘leeks’ indeed!

They could definitely help expand his influence among the players!

“Lord Lis, I heard you’ve been troubled by the disturbances in the Lower City District. I wonder if there’s any chance I could help share your worries!”

Zhao Zhao stood in front of Lis respectfully. As expected of a professional player, his way with words was extraordinary.

Mo Yun, standing by his side, was nodding continuously, but her eyes were fixed intently on Lis.

“So handsome, he’s definitely the protagonist of the story!”

Mo Yun wiped away a non-existent drool as the audience in her live stream also marveled at the exquisite modeling of this game NPC.

“Of course, you can.”

Lis said with a smile, and with a wave of his hand, a silver-level quest notification appeared in front of the two.

At this moment, the players waiting across the street noticed their target had appeared and crowded around Lis to receive their quests.

After Lis finished distributing the quests, he thought for a moment and said:

“I’m thinking of taking a stroll in the Lower City District now. I wonder if you have the time to join me.”

Upon hearing this, the players became excited. Wasn’t this just like getting a plot quest? They got stirred up.

“Me me me!”

“Pick me; I have big breasts!”

“Choose me, boss, I’ve got the best service skills!”

…

Lis looked around and shook his head:

“There are too many of you; it’s not convenient to go together.”

“Let’s do this; you, and you, come with me.”

The chosen Mo Yun and Zhao Zhao were ecstatic, like they had won the lottery, and followed Lis out of the store amidst the envious, jealous, and resentful stares of the other players.
