Chapter 90: Dragon Gate Camp (610 seeking subscriptions!)

Woof!

As the deep blue scales were embedded into the formation, Shui Hua felt her thick fur become tougher, and her body's defensive ability increased considerably.

Feeling her own growth, Shui Hua was in high spirits and couldn't help looking at Qin Chuan.

Now Ice Cream has also reached Growth Tier Lv20, likewise needing four intermediate resources to advance; it originally thought that the second intermediate resource Qin Chuan obtained would belong to Ice Cream.

Unexpectedly, this resource was still its own, and was obtained by the partners' joint effort in killing the Blue Scale Jiao.

Over the past five days, Shui Hua's favorability toward Qin Chuan did not drop because of Ice Cream's appearance; it was naturally not jealous, and as usual maintained normal favorability growth, rising from 84% to 86%.

At this moment, the emotion in its heart directly raised its favorability from 86% to 88%.

The later favorability gets harder to increase; Shui Hua's favorability has been steadily rising, making such a jump quite rare.

Qin Chuan, noticing this, half‑squatted and patted Shui Hua's head.

Unexpectedly, Ice Cream slightly shook its head, and the long blade was drawn, reenacting the process of just killing the Blue Scale Jiao.

"Of course." Qin Chuan said dumbfounded.

"Because I have some understanding, I can therefore arrange tactics specifically."

"Don't worry, when you need intermediate resources I will also strive for them." Qin Chuan thought Ice Cream also wanted intermediate resources, and immediately spoke.

"It's fine." Yue Li shook her head, "I just feel this battle went very smoothly."

Under the influence of fearless heart, its performance just now could be called beyond its level.

"Eh~"

All right! When you encounter the intermediate resources I need, you must also strive for them!

"Eh~"

Hearing Qin Chuan's praise, Ice Cream's ice‑crystal‑like eyes blinked and blinked, and a look of joy immediately welled up.

As an outstanding assassin, it pays special attention to its own combat ability.

"So that's how it is." Yue Li nodded, seeming to accept the explanation, but a strange flicker unnoticed by Qin Chuan flashed in the depths of her eyes.

"Your performance just now was excellent; those few strikes were cool and startled me."

Qin Chuan realized.

"What's wrong?" Qin Chuan asked curiously.

Today is the day of weekly settlement; if all goes well, he will subsequently start thinking of ways to obtain intermediate resources for Ice Cream.

Ice Cream excitedly floated toward Qin Chuan, swaying back and forth in front of him, its big eyes occasionally glancing at Qin Chuan as if expecting something.

Of course, intermediate resources, it also wants them.

Even Ice Cream itself, recalling its own combat techniques just now, felt incredibly splendid; that is why it proactively sought Qin Chuan to obtain praise.

"Because I just happened to hear two days ago on the Dream Forum that players from District 3675 were discussing this Blue Scale Jiao." Qin Chuan knew Yue Li was somewhat surprised by his recent performance, and he explained using a prepared excuse.

While interacting with the two contract spirit beasts, Qin Chuan sensed something, turned his head to look at Yue Li, but saw Yue Li hastily shift her gaze elsewhere.

"Cry——"

A sharp cry suddenly rang out, causing Qin Chuan, who was about to add a few more words, to stop speaking.

After killing the Blue Scale Jiao, Xiao Qing flew up to high altitude and continued to shoulder the sentinel's duty.

This sharp cry is a warning!

At the moment the cry echoed, a 'shush-shush' sound came from the thicket beside the Accumulated Water Pond.

Qin Chuan and Yue Li each went on alert; the four spirit beasts that had just experienced a battle once again entered combat state.

Soon, a figure quickly walked out of the thicket, raising both hands while walking and shouting, "Don't act rashly!"

Player? Chinese?

Qin Chuan and Yue Li's eyes both flashed with a hint of surprise.

That was a female player avatar; after shouting loudly, seeing that Qin Chuan and Yue Li did not attack, she slightly relaxed.

"I came because I heard movement here, so… so…"

She stared straight at the Blue Scale Jiao corpse on the ground, her voice growing softer.

Isn't this the Elite Tier Blue Scale Jiao from the waterfall?

It was actually killed?!

She then looked at Qin Chuan and Yue Li, her trembling hand tapping the flashing light point.

"Luo?! Yue Li?! Are you the two of you?"

At the same time she exclaimed, Qin Chuan and Yue Li also saw her condition.

【Player Name: Meng Yu】

【Player Level: Trainee Level】

【Contract Spirit Beast: Four-Eyed Spirit Fox】

Beside Meng Yu's feet, a white fox with four eyes stared at the four growth‑tier spirit beasts eyeing it covetously, trembling.

"Hello!" Yue Li reacted first, waving her hand to signal the four spirit beasts to restrain their power, and smiling she greeted the other party, "Are you a player nearby?"

"Yes…" Meng Yu's eyes lit up, looking at Yue Li as if seeing an idol, "We players often mention you; I never expected to see you alive today."

Those words made Yue Li unable to hold back laughter, and Qin Chuan's mouth also curled up a bit.

Over the past few days of trekking through mountains and rivers, they naturally also encountered other players.

But for some reason, they had never met players from Chinese Nation; those they met all had game names in other languages.

Because the languages were mutually unintelligible, seeing Qin Chuan's and Yue Li's game names made the other side extremely wary, so the two had no communication with them.

Now, it can be said they have finally seen players belonging to Chinese Nation.

At least they can now communicate with each other.

"You are also the first Chinese player I've met during this period." Yue Li said with a smile, then glanced at Qin Chuan, "Except Luo."

"Before we met some players, but they seemed to be from other countries." Saying this, Yue Li also felt a bit strange, "Obviously we Yan Huang State people are the most numerous."

"Uh… I should know the answer to this question."

Hearing Yue Li's words, Meng Yu's expression became somewhat strange, "Because all the Yan Huang State players in the surrounding area have gathered together."

"We are all in a mutual aid camp called 'Dragon Gate', helping each other, which allows us to live better in the Dream World."

"Dragon Gate..." Qin Chuan showed a hint of contemplation, then interjected, "Could it be related to the Special Affairs Group?"

"Exactly!" Meng Yu nodded firmly, "Dragon Gate was established under the leadership of the Special Affairs Group, and they also proactively contacted us in reality, informing us of the camp's location."

Upon hearing this, Qin Chuan nodded in understanding.

It seems the Special Affairs Group is not only active in reality, but has also begun to exert effort in the Dream World.

This mutual aid model means little to top-tier players, but for the ordinary players who make up the vast majority, it is a safety guarantee.

"In Area 3675, there are six camps; the one I'm in is 'Dragon Gate Camp 20131', not far from here." Saying this, Meng Yu suddenly thought of something, her eyes lit up, "Do you want to come with me to take a look?"

"I believe everyone in the camp will be very eager to see you!"
