Chapter 238: The King is Dead

"Then let's have a gathering! It's fate that we all participated in a plot mission together, and we can consider ourselves to have recognized each other's strength and character. If there is a need for help or multiplayer missions in the future, we can still cooperate."

Nie Yingying took over the conversation, agreeing with bald Hans's proposal and also easing his embarrassment.

Aoruilian nodded in agreement, and Siwen, who had been waiting with Hans, naturally had the same idea.

Thus, a group of people went to the "Yingzi Gongjue Bar" under Hans's lead.

Along the way, the eyes of Hans and Siwen kept glancing at the expressionless Xie Yaoyao. In their impression, although this big shot was also aloof, he was more of a cynical, evil image who didn't care about anything, absolutely not this silent, cold image.

And Nie Yingying on the side couldn't care about the thoughts of Hans and the others, her mind constantly replaying Lilith's words.

"Miss Nie, Yao's partial spirituality was destroyed by Belial, which led to his loss of control! But that's not the most terrifying thing. Spirituality will always self-repair, but the key is that his loss of control will attract the attention of another Outer God; that is the most terrifying thing."

"What Helai'er and I did was use our own spirituality to temporarily replace the part of Yao's spirituality that was lost. But although doing this can stop him from losing control and going crazy again, it also prevents his own spirituality from self-repairing, so now the problem is in a dilemma."

"Letting him lose control will allow his spirituality to self-repair, but it will attract a terrifying Evil God! Keeping his spirituality sealed all the time won't work either. Although controlling his body is quite fun, I don't want my master to be a fool forever! So this matter still has to be entrusted to you!"

The group arrived at the "Yingzi Gongjue Bar" and occupied a table in the corner. Hans enthusiastically greeted everyone to sit down.

"The decoration here looks consistent with the world's background, but after all, it's a bar run by Travelers, so the variety of alcoholic beverages and specialty snacks provided here is unexpectedly comprehensive and exquisite."

Hans said this mainly to Xie Yaoyao and Aoruilian. Among the five, he was a long-term resident of Mingxing Cheng, and Siwen and Nie Yingying could also be considered Travelers mixing in the Lain Kingdom. Only Xie Yaoyao and Aoruilian were Travelers who didn't mix in this area.

"And this is a stronghold of the 'Assassin Alliance,' basically no natives will come in, so many Travelers will come over, it's more free!"

Aoruilian didn't know much about the "Assassin Alliance." He had run into the inner city by himself and stumbled into the "Baixue" plot mission. He only knew that the mission had pitted many Travelers after arriving here.

Just at this time, there were quite a few Travelers in the vicinity sneakily discussing how the "Baixue" plot mission was going, and still discussing the possibility of obtaining the so-called "Mirror Demon" bloodline.

*Clang! *

The waiter had just brought the drinks for the five of them when the bar door was pushed open hard, and everyone's eyes were attracted to it.

"The Baixue plot mission has been completed by someone!"

The person who came in was an ordinary middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance, ordinary height, ordinary voice, and an ordinary Lain Kingdom military standard armor. The only thing not ordinary was a mouth that was too big.

At this moment, it was split open, making it look even more uncoordinated with the other ordinary facial features.

Hali the bartender, who had been hanging his head and half-dead, wiping a glass at the bar, immediately perked up upon hearing this news.

"A big glass of Triumph, my treat! Big-Mouth Kean, hurry up and tell us what happened!"

Big-Mouth Kean didn't stand on ceremony, walked to the bar, picked up the glass, and took a big gulp of beer first, then began to tell the story amidst the urging of the crowd.

"Early this morning, our regiment was urgently transferred to the palace. Guess what, all the nobles in the city went, hehe, something big happened in the palace!"

Then there was another round of *gulp-gulp-gulp*; it had to be said that this big mouth was really taking advantage when it came to drinking.

"Oh, Big-Mouth Kean, hurry up and tell us, what big thing happened?"

"Hurry up, hurry up, tell us and then drink!"

"I originally intended to sell such news to the Alliance; I think it could at least sell for ten gold coins, but..." Kean wiped the beer foam from the corner of his mouth and chuckled: "Hehe, but who told us we are good brothers! Aotuo Guowang is dead!"

This caused everyone to start discussing, and the entire bar seemed to have suddenly turned on the "noisy" button.

"Aotuo Guowang is dead? Really?"

"The King is dead... then what about the mission he issued before? Does it still count?"

"Yeah, yeah, 'Suppress the Green Leaf Thieves' mission, I've almost collected the mission items."

"Haha, forget it, you've gone twice and it's enough, but you're timid, every time you buy the tokens that others have extra, when will you be able to collect them all?"

Seeing that the crowd's topic was getting more and more off-track, Big-Mouth Kean hurriedly said loudly: "Do you know? Who is the King of our Lain Kingdom now? Haha, you might not believe it, it's actually Queen Selimu! She is about to become Queen."

Hali the bartender immediately exerted his instinct as an intelligence peddler.

"No wonder you said the 'Baixue' plot mission was completed. Looking at it this way, the Queen's side won, right? Did Baixue die together with Aotuo Guowang?"

To everyone's surprise, Big-Mouth Kean laughed loudly.

"No, no, no, Hali, you guessed wrong! Although Her Majesty the Queen is preparing to ascend the throne, Baixue is still the noble Princess!"

"Eh?!"

"How is that possible?"

"Big-Mouth Kean, what nonsense are you talking about?"

"The Queen and Baixue... double win? The King lost? Am I crazy?"

Just as everyone was discussing, the bar door was pushed open rudely again, hitting the wall with a violent *clang*.

The person hadn't arrived, but the voice came in first.

"The King is dead! The Queen is about to ascend the throne!"

The bar, which had quieted down from the violent impact, became noisy again.

"Haha, Big-Mouth Kean, it seems your news can't be sold for ten gold coins, hahahaha!"

"What exactly happened in the plot world? This is too strange!"

"No matter what happened, the plot mission must have been completed by someone!"

"My God, the popularity of this mission can be counted as world-class, and I don't know if the person who completed the mission got the 'Mirror Demon' bloodline!"

The five people sitting in the corner of the bar looked at each other, not expecting the news to spread so fast; they themselves had only just returned from the plot world.

"It seems it's better to leave Mingxing Cheng next, but before leaving, we can sell the entries we harvested."

Clearly, Aoruilian didn't want to attract too much attention, whether it was well-intentioned or malicious. ===== CHAPTER 239 =====
