Chapter 48

"A Seer cannot divine another Fate Observer, unless the gap between the two sides is too great! Caw! Caw!"

"Yao, the 【Divination】 entry you bestowed upon me is of a very high tier; it is almost impossible for anyone in the world to divine or spy on me! Because we are a community of fate, you are the same; no one can obtain information about you through such methods! Caw! Caw!"

Lilisi looked proud; ever since Xie Yaoyao equipped her with the purple 【Divination】 entry, she had been studying this new ability.

Lilisi's words made Xie Yaoyao feel slightly relieved, and then he thought of Nie Yingying.

"Then what about her? Can others obtain information about me through her?"

Lilisi flapped her wings and hopped onto Xie Yaoyao's shoulder; it was indeed more comfortable in this position.

"If she stays with you all the time, you will interfere with her fate, so others will likewise be unable to obtain information about her! Caw! Caw!"

"That's good! That's good! Eh! Wait, that's not right! She can't live with me forever!"

"That's also easy; a simple divination ritual can solve this problem, and then just have her wear a ritual item at all times, but it definitely won't work for a long time. Caw! Caw!"

Lilisi's words made Xie Yaoyao think of something immediately.

He flipped his palm, and a jet-black, glossy feather appeared in his hand.

"Ah, it's my tail feather; I didn't expect you to have kept it! Give it to her, just give it to her! Caw! Caw!"

Xie Yaoyao nodded, handed the feather in his hand to Nie Yingying, who had been staring at him blankly, and then relayed Lilisi's words to her.

"You mean, this... oh, sorry, Lilisi, you mean Lilisi has the 【Divination】 entry? And it's purple?"

"That's right, I gave it to her! Lilisi and Helai'er are my contract partners!"

As he spoke, Xie Yaoyao pointed to the cat tree at the highest point.

Nie Yingying looked in the direction of his finger, where a black cat was lazily lying there licking its fur.

Following Xie Yaoyao's finger, a large, jet-black bird slowly revealed its form. The black cat, which had been quietly licking its fur, was startled by the sudden appearance of Helai'er beside it; its black fur stood on end, and its entire body sprang up as if it had been fitted with springs.

Another scene of chaos!

"Another one? Invisible? How on earth did you do that?"

Nie Yingying blankly took the black feather, looking at the man before her as if he were a monster.

If she didn't know clearly that Xie Yaoyao had only obtained the key a few days ago, Nie Yingying would definitely have thought the man before her was a veteran Traveler, the kind who had been mixing in the Fairytale World for many years.

"So... we don't have to worry about that crazy woman named Vermilion Bird from the Illuminati coming to our door now!"

Nie Yingying took a deep breath, calming her mood.

"That is true, but our plan remains unchanged; we still have to get that invitation first. After all, it's a mission involving talents, and I don't want to give it up. Besides, the 'Little Garden' mission happens to be a dungeon mission, which can be used for advancement."

Xie Yaoyao had seen the 'advancement' Nie Yingying mentioned on the 'Fairytale World' website.

Fairytale World divides Travelers into nine tiers; for every tier gained, one can equip an additional entry and gain an extra life.

Among these nine tiers, the first to third are called low-tier, where most Travelers are, while the fourth to sixth are mid-tier, who can already be considered experts and can hold certain positions in major organizations.

From the seventh tier onwards, they are called high-tier Travelers; the top experts known in the world are all seventh-tier, and there have been no reports of eighth-tier experts yet.

Ordinary Travelers can advance just by doing missions or fighting monsters.

However, when moving from low-tier to mid-tier and mid-tier to high-tier, Travelers need to complete dungeon missions to advance. Dungeon missions are usually extremely difficult and have no respawns.

That is to say, if you die in a dungeon mission, it's truly the end, just like dying in the real world.

Therefore, countless Travelers are stuck at the third tier, afraid to accept dungeon missions, while most sixth-tier experts aren't afraid of death, but rather that high-level dungeon missions are truly hard to find.

"Alright, you're right! But I can't enter yet... wait! The cooldown is over, I can enter the Fairytale World!"

Hearing that Xie Yaoyao could already enter the Fairytale World, Nie Yingying nodded.

"Gaodi Kingdom! After entering the Dark World, get to the Gaodi Kingdom as fast as you can. The trigger mission for the 'Little Garden Invitation' is in a border town of the Gaodi Kingdom, and the town's name is 'Heisen Xiaozhen'."

"Before that, I will contact one more companion, and we will meet in 'Heisen Xiaozhen' the day after tomorrow."

Xie Yaoyao nodded and then shook his head, asking under Nie Yingying's puzzled gaze.

"Why do we need to contact someone else? I'm quite confident in my strength; why increase the risk?"

"Of course, it's because the invitation requires a team of three to enter, as I told you before! But don't worry, I will vouch for the trustworthiness of the other companion."

Xie Yaoyao shrugged indifferently.

"Fine, since you say so!"

"I'm leaving now; you hurry to the Gaodi Kingdom. I'm already in Heisen Xiaozhen." After Nie Yingying finished speaking, she raised the black feather in her hand and walked out. "Since we've decided to team up, to prevent exposure, I will bring the person to you."

It was already dark outside, and Xie Yaoyao hurriedly chased after her.

"Hey, big sister, where do I have room to sleep here! Hey! Hey! Eat some dinner before you go!"

Nie Yingying walked away gracefully, without looking back.

"Damn it! How rude!"

This woman was truly a woman of action, incredibly efficient.

"Hehe, Yaoyao, did you make your girlfriend angry?"

"Brother Zhao, no, no, don't misunderstand! You go ahead and get busy!"

"Hey! Still shy! The kid usually has a sharp tongue! By the way, when did you get a girlfriend? How come I've never seen her?"

"Hey! That's not it, Brother Zhao is just talking nonsense. Yu Shu, don't join in the fun; I'm going across the street to eat some rice noodles, please keep an eye on the shop for me."

"Alright! Go ahead, go ahead, Uncle will keep an eye on it for you."

Xie Yaoyao knew that if he kept getting entangled, he wouldn't be able to leave for an hour, so he simply asked Yu Shu to watch the shop while he ran out to grab a meal.

With something to occupy them, people weren't as gossipy.

Even if they were gossiping, they wouldn't pester the person involved!

While waiting for his food, Xie Yaoyao took out his phone, opened the 'Dark Fairytale' website, and started checking the map.

The map of the Fairytale World had long been mostly explored by people, but looking at it now, the Fairytale World was still a continent composed of countless kingdoms, large and small.

The north of the continent was occupied by brave barbarians and countless magical creatures like trolls and giants.

The south of the continent consisted of countless forests and lakes; the further south one went, the denser the forests became, with countless fairies, elves, and witches living within them.

The west of the continent was an endless ocean, where the songs of mermaids and pirates could be heard.

The east of the continent had countless pagan nations, with legends of magic lamps and flying carpets in the deserts and the Caspian Sea.

And the Gaodi Kingdom that Xie Yaoyao was looking for was in the north-central part of the continent. Fortunately, the Razika Kingdom and the Gaodi Kingdom were connected, and the area where they connected was a vast Black Forest!
