Chapter 277: Chapter 238 Returning to Lanxing (4K)_1


    Lanxing.


    In the spacious and well-lit basement, Mu Yuan appeared through a shimmer of weak ripples.


    He nced around the room; a row of long benches for rest to his left and a wardrobe, shelves, and fitting mirrors ced to his right. He was standing on a dark doormat, with several pairs of slippers thoughtfully arranged by Sophia not far from him.


    Once, this basement was used for training. General Duo Lai began his journey to strength by devouring a lot of steel here.


    However, as time passed, Mu Yuan no longer needed to train in the basement. There were more suitable training spots and facilities in the Tianyuan Territory. Therefore, the basement gradually became a ‘transit station’.


    Whether it was Lord Shepherd or people like Sophia, both entered and exited the Eternal World from here, transferring or extracting treasures at this spot.


    It was more covert this way, thereby avoiding prying eyes from the outside world.


    Mu Yuan installed a quite robust anti-detection enchantment around the basement… Despite being a small underground space, its secrecy specification wasn’t low.


    However, the wardrobe mirrors, long benches, long tables, and even the coffee machine were all set up by Sophia.


    She had arranged it like a lounge, spotlessly clean, and of course, Mu Yuan could not casually step onto it with dirty shoes.


    He changed into the provided slippers and walked towards the storage cupboard. He took out his once-favored, now-neglected phone. Upon unlocking the screen, he found that the battery was still 73%.


    The notifications were buzzing non-stop.


    There were already 999+ unread messages in the small chat group.


    The unofficial yer group chat in Baijiang City… Mu Yuan had set it not to prompt messages long ago.


    Mr. Tan: Brother Mu, don’t forget the gathering on November 10. If you don’t show up at this gathering of our fresh recruits, it would be a bit subdued.’ ‘Mr. Tan: After all, there are only a few of us this term who are lords in Baijiang… (message retracted)’


    ‘Mr. Tan: I’ve invited a lot of new yers from this term. Brother Mu, if you need, you can recruit some people to work for you.’


    ‘Mr. Tan: Liver Emperor and others will also be present, so anyway, keep it in mind.’


    ‘Mr. Tan: A gathering like this maybe only urs once.’


    ‘Mr. Tan: ‘ (unread: 18)


    Mu Yuan: ” ”


    He had no choice but to reply, “Okay, okay, I will definitely be there on time tomorrow.”


    In fact, Mr. Tan had already started preparing for a ‘reunion’ prior to this — all the new recruits, including the non-lord yers, had to learn relevant knowledge through online courses. This included monster general knowledge, world history, moral and ideological education, etc. They even had to attend offline study sessions and sign in at the yer’s Association.


    Dispatched in the same period and ss, it didn’t matter if he called them ssmates.


    After acquiring the ‘self-protection ability,’ Mr. Mu was no longer reluctant to go out. However, he was previously upied with the conflict in the Dragon Court. Therefore, his reply to Mr. Tan was dependent on the situation.


    Consider it as taking a half-day break for myself.”


    “I might not be able to see the scenery of Lanxing in the future.”


    Mu Yuan was well-aware that such a gathering was very likely theirst. This was because not much time was left before Lanxing merged with the Eternal World.


    Even if Xuan Country tried their best to preserve as many citizens as possible and make sure every single city merged smoothly, they could only do their best. What’s more, even if they could merge into it, the future would only offer thendscape of the Eternal World, unable to witness the original scenery of Lanxing.


    This was the grand trend.


    Mu Yuan stayed on Lanxing’s side this day. He strolled around Baijiang City and took up tasks from the yers Association to head to the dested fields outside the city. Using the Battle Falcon Eye, the Hunter’s Instinct, and the ck Crow Reconnaissance Aircraft, he consecutively tracked down and wiped out three packs of monsters.


    He contributed a bit to the safety of the area surrounding Baijiang City.


    The next day,


    “For the gathering, can’t I just go by myself?”


    No, if you go like this, boss, people will look down on you. In Lanxing, rank and prestige matter a lot.”


    Sophia said seriously.


    She hade to understand Lanxing very well! Business negotiations had to be carried out in high-end establishments, and when meeting customers, one certainly needed to drive a luxury car.


    The boss was regarded as a significant person among the lords, so how could he ride a rental bike or run there himself? That was unsuitable!


    When Mu Yuan stepped out of the door, he saw a total of three ck business cars parked outside.


    Sophia was already prepared.


    From thest two cars, burly men and valiant women in ck suits emerged.


    It was the prestige team… Ah no, the security team that he had seen before.


    Mu Yuan: ” ”


    Nevermind the prestige.


    Lord Shepherd was a low-profile person. He didn’t fancy this kind of surrounded and escorted mode of travel. However, if it involved traveling with a squad of giant dragons or angels, he could consider it.


    In the end, Mu Yuan dismissed the prestige team and only boarded the first low-profile but luxurious business car.


    He sat m the back right seat, with Sophia on the left. The vehicle slowly started heading towards the predetermined location.


    It was only when they got there did Mu Yuan realize that Sophia was right- there were quite a few luxury carsing and going. The gathering, led by Mr. Tan, not only included yers from their term but also numerous wealthy businessmen and socialites from Baijiang City.


    ording to him, many wealthy businessmen wanted to connect with the yers.


    And the yers could expand their own power by leveraging the wealth of the real world.


    Moreover, five months had passed, and a lot of yers had gradually shed their rookie status, possessing notable power, wealth, and influence.


    Butpared to luxury cars and bodyguards, troops, especially rare troops, attracted the most attention.


    A number of yers were followed by two or three Halberd Guards or Imperial Guards, drawing public attention wherever they went.


    Mr. Mu, who descended from the business car, appeared average and unspectacr.
