Chapter 83: Chapter 83 New Profession
Famous Clan Handsome Guy (Comment): “Feng Ge, what were you up to disappearing for a whole day? I’m really curious, how did you manage to offend the Elf King? An NPC talking on the world channel targeting a player–I’ve played games my whole life and this is the first time I’ve seen such a scene, totally mind-blowing.”
Divine Hall Madman (Comment): “Feng Hua Brother, you’re really the quiet type, but once you make a move, it’s incredible!”
Lemon Rabbit (Comment): “Are you okay?”
…
Seeing all these messages, Lin Yi covered his face, really not knowing how to respond. What on earth is happening?
Isn’t this the classic example of shooting oneself in the foot? Geez.
As soon as this message came out, the game world exploded once again!
Some suspected that it was an internal programmer eating popcorn on the side and forgetting to switch accounts while posting.
But then an official announcement appeared on the forum, shocking all the players.
The content roughly stated that game NPCs are controlled by AR, with no human intervention involved.
It also confirmed for the first time that game Lord Level NPCs (City Lords, Clan Leaders) have been granted a high level of self-awareness.
Within the rules set by the game, they enjoy some of the rights players have in the game, including speaking on the world channel, posting missions, and more.
After the official clarification, people no longer doubted the authenticity of this matter.
What’s left in everyone’s mind was one thought:
“This Feng Hua sure has some skills, to actually offend such a big boss like the Elf King. Looks like the opening of the Elf Race has nothing to do with him,” said the Divine Hall Madman gleefully.
Meanwhile, the world channel was flooded by frantic players.
[World] Emotional Blossom: “Your Excellency Elf King, could you add the Priest profession to the Elf Race? I want to become an Elf, but you don’t have a Priest profession.”
[World] Fake Cat: “Add a Warrior profession, please.”
[World] Luoshen Aoao: “Elf King Sir, do you need a little brother? How do you think I am?”
…
Within the Elf Race’s Holy Hall, Lin Yi looked at the constantly refreshing messages on the world channel, speechless.
Two hundred bucks per message, all rich folks!
At this moment, Lin Yi no longer dared to underestimate this [Clan Leader Authority].
After this wave, Lin Yi turned his attention to the second item: [Teleport to Elf Race]
Needless to say, this was a designated Return to City, directly skipping it to look at the next line.
3.[Elf Race Construction].
Lin Yi opened [Elf Race Construction], filled with names like: [Elf Race Totem][Elf Secret Realm Dungeon][Activate New Profession: Elf Priest][Activate Racial Talent: Flying], etc.
Among them was also: [Reputation Mall].
However, all these names were in gray font.
“What does this mean?”
Looking at these function names, a thought popped into Lin Yi’s mind, could it be these need to be activated?
With this doubt, Lin Yi clicked on [Reputation Mall].
Suddenly a system prompt popped up in front of him:
Activating [Reputation Mall] requires Gold Coins x10000, do you wish to confirm activation?
[Confirm][Cancel]
“Ten thousand Gold Coins, what the hell, this is a scam!”
Seeing the numbers on the prompt, Lin Yi shivered all over.
Ten thousand Gold Coins means one million Reality Coin?
Lin Yi suddenly understood the look in Gamplov’s eyes earlier.
Was that the look given to a sucker?
At this point, Lin Yi pondered, how did the Reputation Mall exist in the previous life?
He had this question because in the previous life, he hadn’t heard of any Elf King!
Besides, those so-called Elf Secret Realm, Elf Totem, the Elf Priest profession, etc., Lin Yi had never seen any of these in the previous life.
Lin Yi suddenly realized: it seems with his rebirth, the butterfly effect has begun to cause unpredictable changes.
At this moment, Lin Yi turned his attention to:
Activating [Elf Secret Realm Dungeon] requires Gold Coins x200000, do you wish to confirm activation?
[Confirm][Cancel]
“Two hundred thousand Gold Coins? Damn, this is robbery!”
Then Lin Yi discovered that only the activation of the Reputation Mall was the cheapest, going up was [Activate New Profession: Elf Priest]at fifty thousand Gold Coins, and beyond that, all required over a hundred thousand Gold Coins.
Looking at these functions demanding Gold Coins by the tens of thousands, Lin Yi felt his brain struggling to process.
Where to get so many Gold Coins?
“Right, the trading house!”
Lin Yi quickly switched out of Elf King’s Concealment, restored his Feng Hua appearance, then swiftly clicked Return to City, and headed to the Cyan Dragon City’s trading house.
Opening it, he saw all his posted equipment sold, except for that Legendary dagger, earning over a thousand Gold Coins.
He quickly took down the dagger to prevent someone from buying it for real.
This Legendary dagger was not something Lin Yi truly intended to sell.
However, he hesitated about whether to give it to Red Eyes or to Tian Ci, causing a bit of a headache.
Following that was the million Reality Coins Lin Yi had posted.
To Lin Yi’s surprise, in just a few days, he had already received over sixty thousand Gold Coins.
While the million Reality Coins at that moment were down to over three hundred thousand.
Lin Yi withdrew all the Gold Coins from inside, ignoring the remaining money, and left the trading house amidst players’ astonished gazes.
Then Lin Yi found a place with no people, resumed his Elf King identity, and returned to the Elf Race.
In the Elf Holy Hall, Lin Yi clicked to activate [Reputation Mall], paying ten thousand Gold Coins.
At that moment, an expressionless elf elder suddenly appeared behind Lin Yi, gave the highest courtesy of the Elf Race to Lin Yi, and said:
“Honored Elf King Your Grace, Holy Peace.”
The sudden appearance of this elf gave Lin Yi quite a startle.
Lin Yi turned to look,
Caslette Lv30
(Elf Race Reputation Exchange)
It was this very elf!
In the past life, the Elf Race’s Reputation Exchange NPC was precisely this elf.
Lin Yi circled around him,
“Caslette?”
“Honored Elf King Your Grace, any commands?”
Lin Yi asked:
“Do you know the name of the previous Elf King?”
As expected, the eyes of this elf in front of him were full of confusion, as if this question exceeded his understanding.
Lin Yi would bet that this question could be answered without hesitation by any young elf out there.
But why did this seemingly older elf look so puzzled?
When Lin Yi saw him appear out of nowhere after he activated [Reputation Mall], it confirmed a bold guess in Lin Yi’s mind.
The elf in front is genuinely an NPC created by AR intelligence in “Glory of the Gods”.
If Gamplov didn’t deceive him, then Lin Yi at least could speculate on one thing now:
This world is one where the real world and the game world coexist.
Characters like Gamplov and Babylon, who possess their own emotions, are the natives of this world.
While this one before him, and many shop owners, even the profession instructors in Cyan Dragon City, are functional NPCs created by AR.
They only possess the most basic intelligence and conversation abilities, incapable of conversing fluently and understanding everything like Gamplov.
Upon discovering this, another question jumped into his mind:
How is it possible to merge a game with another world, and what’s the purpose behind the mastermind doing this?
Perplexing!
For matters without answers, Lin Yi had to put them aside for now.
After spending ten thousand Gold Coins to open the [Reputation Mall], Lin Yi, looking at the over fifty thousand Gold Coins in his bag, hesitated whether to activate the new profession [Elf Priest].
Since this profession was one even he hadn’t seen in the previous life.
Lin Yi was also curious about what this profession was.
Prompt: Activating [New Profession: Elf Priest]requires Gold Coins x50000, do you wish to confirm activation?
[Confirm][Cancel]
Lin Yi thought:
[Confirm]
