Chapter 460: 353, Breaking through 3 layers, has Lin Da been targeted by the green crossbow?
The square, enveloped in a faint, lime-green glow, buzzed with adventurers gathered around benches chatting away, each eagerly sharing the latest hot gossip.
A short, freckled boy couldn’t help but exclaim out loud when he saw Lin Da leading a team of beautiful girls towards the World Tree in the distance.
Ever since the news of Lin Da’s advancement to Star Rank sprea, the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team’s popularity had soared.
In this city with a population of well over a million, there were only about 20 Star-ranked adventurers, each commanding immense respect.
When the all-Star-rank Phoenix Tail Flower team appeared in the square, it immediately caused a stir.
“It’s really the Phoenix Tail Flower! Are they heading into the World Tree?”
“We might witness two big pieces of news tonight! Will Snow Goose break through the 14th floor and become an Iron Level adventure team? And how many floors will Phoenix Tail Flower reach?”
“Guys, I’m heading out to grab a good spot in the guild’s broadcasting hall to wait for the live strategy feed from the Phoenix Tail Flower team!”
Word spread from one to ten, ten to a hundred.
The arrival of the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team sparked a surge in the crowd at Secret Realm Square, all rushing towards the Adventurers’ Guild on Central Street.
In no time, the bustling square had thinned out considerably as everyone moved with their stools to watch Lin Da’s live strategy.
“Captain Lin Da, could I get your autograph, please? I’m a huge fan!”
A young girl with golden twin ponytails timidly handed over a pair of figurines.
“Of course you can.”
Lin Da replied with a smile.
He’d never had a concrete sense of his own renown in White Dove City until he experienced it firsthand in Secret Realm Square tonight.
Even well-known divas might not enjoy as much limelight as he was getting now.
His live strategy content and Star Rank prowess had won him a great deal of admiration from fellow adventurers.
The crowd in the square parted ways on their own, creating a clear path leading straight to the World Tree.
Lin Da took the marker from the girl with twin ponytails and was about to sign when he suddenly frowned, noticing something off about the figurines.
Why were they of himself and a red-haired dwarf, back-to-back in battle, wielding a longsword?
Lin Da glanced from the corner of his eye.
Sure enough, Lulu’s expression was far from pleased.
“Ahem, what’s with this figurine?”
“Oh, you didn’t know? A single ‘Eye of True Knowledge’ figurine is priced at 10 gold, but if you buy it along with ‘Bursting Flames’, you get both for just 15 gold.”
What sort of bundle marketing scheme was this…
Apparently, Lia’s figurines were simply not selling.
Lin Da internally chuckled at the thought.
He took the figurines and the marker glided across the base.
“Thank you, Captain Lin Da, this is the luckiest day of my life!” The girl with twin ponytails bowed gratefully and left happily with her figurines.
Eager to avoid getting mobbed by fans for autographs, Lin Da and his team members quickly stepped into the World Tree.
As they watched their figures vanish into the blue light, the crowd burst into a flurry of comments:
“Captain Lin Da really is such a kind man; even when fans block his path to adventure, he doesn’t get angry.”
“If I ever turned villain and crossed Lin Da, maybe just asking for mercy would get me forgiven!”
“Speaking of which, the Great Mystery Continent’s 15th level is about to open. We could have at least two new Iron Level adventure teams in White Dove City, which is exciting to think about.”
Ice Flower had already advanced to Iron Level.
Whether Snow Goose makes it or not depends on tonight.
The Phoenix Tail Flower team might have a chance if they push hard enough.@@novelbin@@
The fourth team with potential is the Valiant Adventure Team led by Robert.
If all four teams make it to Iron Level…
The adventurers of White Dove City could really hold their heads high for once.
Meeting adventurers from Red Heart City or South Rock City in the field, they could lift their heads a little higher.
Central Street.
A swarm of adventurers from Secret Realm Square flooded the place, bringing the street to a standstill.
The knight in charge of maintaining order cursed, “A bunch of unruly pigs, I should lock you all up!”
But the crowd didn’t care a bit about the knight—
“Charge, brothers! The Phoenix Tail Flower adventure team’s live stream is about to start, an all-star lineup—I want to see Captain Lin Da crushing the 11th floor magical creatures!”
“What, the Phoenix Tail Flower’s strategy? Can’t miss the chance to cut in line!”
“Charge, charge, charge!”
Upon hearing it was about the Phoenix Tail Flower adventure team, the knight scratched his head and decided to get on with his business.
Mayor Adel had already instructed that disturbances caused by the Phoenix Tail Flower team could be overlooked.
By showcasing the meticulous strategy detail of Phoenix Tail Flower, the city aimed to attract foreign adventurers to settle in White Dove City, all part of Adel’s urban development strategy.
Rumor had it that there was even a policy in the works: adventurers over level 20 who took up citizenship in White Dove City would receive a limited edition Phoenix Tail Flower Team figurine.
All in all.
With the rising profile of Phoenix Tail Flower, Snow Goose, and Ice Flower adventure teams, White Dove City had been flourishing, moving in a very positive direction.
The knight had even overheard from his superiors that several nobles from afar, equipped with substantial funds, had come to White Dove City to invest…
Among these nobles was a mysterious lady in a black dress, an influential figure seemingly connected to the Royal Capital.
It set the knight itching, having spent his life in White Dove City without ever encountering the exalted denizens of the Royal Capital.
Considering she was a noble lady from the Royal Capital, she had to be unimaginably beautiful.
“If only she would take a fancy to me and promote me to the Royal Capital.”
The knight chuckled to himself, daydreaming about his life taking a dramatic turn for the better.
…
…
Three days later.
Top floor of the inn ‘Sword and Woodpecker’.
The light of dusk streamed through the large crystal windows, resting upon the knees of a girl in a black dress.
Her complexion was pale, giving off a somewhat sickly vibe, her breathing softer than that of a sleeping baby. She sat wheelchair-bound, still and quiet, with eyes that reflected the calm luminescence of a lake in the afternoon.
What do you think?
