Sanctuary Paradise

Chapter 786 Tea Party Ends
"Hello, could you please help me open the camp store?"

“Hei…! Okay, okay! Please wait a moment, it will be ready soon!”

A pleasant and slightly excited reply sounded from a corner of the city. In front of a small shop that seemed to be shielded from the attention of passers-by, the worker, who was invigorated by the sudden teleportation and the identity of the black-haired young man in front of her, said excitedly and quickly opened the camp store for him:

[Tip: You are viewing the Faction Store · Goddess. This Faction Store is a reputation store and requires consuming Faction Reputation to redeem.]

[Tip: The current reputation level of the Pioneer Goddess camp is: Fanaticism. All exchanged items enjoy a 25% price reduction, and the camp store has been opened to the highest level]

[Tip: Because the Pioneer's current identity is "God's Agent", the current camp store's discount has been increased to the maximum discount of 50%]

[Tip: The current reputation value of the Pioneer Goddess camp is: 1000000/1000000 (MAX)]

Two world-class treasure chests? There is even a pure divine essence that can allow the Faith Department to change to the Divine Department? !
In front of the camp store, Xin Lailai looked at the exchange list in front of him and was stunned.

My goodness, no wonder Paradise opened the faction store in the other hemisphere. If it was really opened in a place where people can get to it in time, under normal circumstances, the contractors participating in the mission would definitely fight and betray each other in order to monopolize these rewards during the mission.

"But...why does it feel like this special prize is of no use to us?"

"Indeed, if we don't follow the divine system route, it seems that this divine essence can only be sold to those religious groups that intend to become divine religions."

After a brief surprise, Xin Lailai looked at the exchange list in front of him, touched his chin, and muttered in his mind, while Ling Yuzi in the soul space nodded in agreement and analyzed.

In terms of value alone, this camp store is definitely a great value for money. Apart from anything else, just the pure divine origin that is only priced at 5 million paradise points, if a suitable buyer can be found, it will not be a problem to sell it at more than twice the price.

The same goes for world-class treasure chests and world keys. These are super rare resources that can be easily sold at 30~50% higher than the standard price under normal circumstances. From this point of view, this faction store is really very cost-effective.

The only problem is that, although the price-performance ratio has improved, the "special prize" in the camp store this time is really of no use to them except for selling it for money.

In other words, the rewards of this camp store are different from those of the individual rewards such as the 'Book of the World' in the Black Four world and the 'World Tree Seedling' in the Bone King world. All aspects are obviously more inclined towards the team.

Of course, this cannot be blamed on Paradise. After all, judging from the mission process alone, the large-scale hidden faction mission "Battle of Gods and Demons" was most likely designed specifically for large cults rather than for individuals.

If his guess was correct, according to the design of the park, the normal process of the Demon God camp's series of tasks should be:

Individual contractors discover the beginning of a mission - hidden mission intelligence spreads - discovers that the mission is extremely large - a large cult enters as a group - defeats the demon camp and obtains the origin of the gods - cultivates the gods of their own cult and turns it into a cult - takes off.

It can be said that from the very beginning, the missions of the Demon God camp were not prepared for a single person. The special rule in this mission that "the reputation of members of the same cult can be transferred to each other" is the best proof of this.

But sometimes the relationship between plans and changes is so subtle, the Demon God camp, which was supposed to have an exciting epic battle with a large cult, happened to run into him, the pioneer who suddenly no longer had to suppress his level due to expedition recruitment, and eventually the original epic battle turned into an inhumane one-sided bloodbath.

"Forget it, if I can't use it, then I can't use it. At least the money is in my hands, and we are indeed a little short of park points right now."

After a brief moment of regret in his mind, Xin Lailai gently shook his head, dispelling the distracting thoughts in his mind, and quickly clicked on the exchange list in front of him for a while, and then pressed the confirmation button at the bottom -

[Reminder: The exchange is complete, the reputation quota of the Goddess camp*1000000 points has been deducted, and the following items have been obtained]

……

Origin of the Gods (Level 1)*
World Class Treasure Box (★★)*1
World Class Treasure Box (★)*1
World Key (★★)*4
Miracle of the Gods (Legend) *5
Soul Crystal (complete) *10
Soul Crystal (Large)*200
Soul Crystal (medium)*1000
Soul Crystal (Small)*10000
Park points*1000000000
……

A long series of cold prompt sounds rang out, and the paradise points on the Xinlailai imprint interface, which had less than 1.6 million left, suddenly returned to a level of 11.54 billion.

The faction store in Paradise is designed extremely 'cleverly' this time. Apart from the various high-rare resources that require exactly 50 reputation to get at a 50% discount, the redemption benefits of other items are basically no different from directly exchanging for Paradise points in the second-to-last column.

Even after taking into account a series of expenses such as resale fees, time costs, etc., the profit may be slightly lower than directly exchanging for park points. It is almost as if the words "careful calculation" are written directly on it, leaving them no chance to take advantage of reselling.

By the way, the reputation points brought by this faction mission are normally distributed among all participants. However, because their contribution in this mission reached almost 100%, they were able to occupy all the 100 million reputation points in the entire process. The Taoist priests, who had not taken any action throughout the whole process except for taking part in the mission, did not receive any reputation points reward at all.

Of course, they had already discussed this result, including the legendary treasure chests that had been collected over the past few days. Under normal circumstances, it should have been done by Taoists who had a 50% profit penalty but no restrictions on their actions. However, because they had just been 'unsealed', it was all done by them.

As for whether it is too exaggerated to earn 20 billion by emptying a faction's store, it depends on the initial status assigned to them by the Paradise. If they did not have the status of the Goddess Agent, even if they raised their reputation level to the fanatic level, 100 million reputation would only be worth about 13.33 billion Paradise points at most.

In this case, if this faction mission is carried out normally... that is, with the participation of hundreds of top teams and several super top teams, the 13.33 billion will be spread out to just over million park points per person. Although it is not low, it is far from exaggerated.

In other words, this is why so many contractors are flocking to those derivative worlds that have just been reset and updated, because as long as they can be the first to try it, the benefits they get will definitely be massive.

Although their situation this time is definitely more or less 'funded' by the paradise.

Apart from anything else, according to the park's regulations, if the park wants, it can completely not give them this 50% independent discount, but directly give them 25% according to the rules of the faction store itself. After all, identity discounts and faction discounts are actually on the same level in terms of judgment. Which one to use depends entirely on the park's ideas.

However, as I said before, as long as you have the ability to become a pioneer and survive, the park will give you as many "special treatments" as you want. The park may even be eager for someone to come and ask for a "park loan".

[Warning: It has been detected that the pioneer has destroyed the exclusive weapon "True Brave Sword" of this world's plot, which has caused a huge impact on the development of this world's plot! ]

[Tip: Because the current source of the pioneer has reached the upper limit of the world, this plot change will not bring about an increase in the source of the world. ]

[Tip: Because the strongest unit in this world, "Demon of Destruction" Eliog has died, the will of this world has tacitly approved the current behavior of the pioneer. ]

Suddenly, several warnings and prompts sounded in Xin Lailai's mind, causing Xin Lailai's eyes to move. He glanced at the information on the edge of his vision, and a look of understanding appeared in his eyes.

Has Yuan Mo finally digested the Sword of the Brave? Opening the equipment interface, Xin Lailai glanced at the World Book, which had reached a growth value of 55.7% after collecting the Demon Sealing Ore and the Sword of the Brave from all over the Fulilian world. A look of satisfaction appeared in her eyes.

Very good, this way, it means they can save a lot of money on purchasing world-class special materials. If you round it off, it means they can make a small profit of 100 million!

"There's still half a day left, but it doesn't seem right to go back to the hot springs now... Well, whatever, let's just take a casual walk and experience the atmosphere of this world during the last minute."

After confirming that he had completed the last task in the world of Fulilian, Xin Lailai glanced at the ancient city behind him that was cast in golden color by the dusk. His eyes moved slightly, and after thinking for a while, he randomly chose a direction and walked away.

There was only less than half a day left before they returned. Instead of staying in the room to level up his knowledge and soak in the hot springs, he actually wanted to wander around this slow-paced world that made him inexplicably relaxed.

"Come to think of it, this place seems to be known as a dating destination in the original book?"

"Yeah, it's a pity that we don't have the chance to hang out together."

Xin Lailai stood on the street, gazing at the setting sun in the distance that cast a layer of afterglow over the entire earth, looking at the people coming and going on the street and the shadows passing by them, his eyes moved slightly.

In the distance, several pairs of young men and women were walking down the street arm in arm, talking and laughing. Their radiant smiles and happy expressions gave people an inexplicable touch.

Come to think of it, ever since they realized that they were one mind and one body, they have never been able to properly stroll around in such an occasion with their true identities again...

"Zero more."

"Ok?"

"I said, wait..."

"Brother Black Sword! Help me!!!"

On the street, before Xin Lailai could finish his words, a loud cry for help, as if seeing a savior, suddenly rang out, interrupting the words in Xin Lailai's mind.

I saw a white-haired young man running and crawling on the street. If you look closely, you will find that his hands are handcuffed behind his back with a pair of shackles that are flowing with holy light, his thighs are tied together with white silk ribbons, and someone has put a collar with a star pattern on it around his neck.

The expression on his face was like that of a little white rabbit that had been frightened by something. His red pupils were full of panic. His running posture, which was extremely awkward and funny because his hands and feet were tied, attracted a lot of curious eyes.

"Argo? You are…"

Looking at Bell, who was dressed as if he was almost kidnapped to be a bandit's wife, Xin Lailai, who had roughly guessed what had happened, tried her best to straighten her facial expression, ignored Ling Yuzi's laughter that came from her mind, and spoke to him in the calmest tone possible.

“Help…Help, Brother Black Sword! I can’t hold on any longer!!”

When Bell saw Xin Lailai, he seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He spoke with an expression as if he was about to cry, his face full of anxiety.

"Well, don't be so anxious. Tell me what's going on first. Did they ambush you in the shower again, or..."

“Neither…neither, it’s…”

"Got you!!!"

"Mr. Argo, please explain clearly what is this Miss Soul Moon you mentioned?"

Before Bell could finish speaking, two pleasant voices that made people feel inexplicably cold suddenly rang out from behind, and then two streams of water fell from the sky, one on the left and one on the right, on both sides of Xin Lailai and Bell. They were the Star Girl with a face as gloomy as water and the Saint Princess with squinted eyes and a chilling smile.

"..."

Wow, this is a huge bomb, how the hell can he save him?
Hearing what the two women said when they landed, Xin Lailai's eyelids twitched slightly, and the look she gave Bell suddenly became a little subtle, and she even silently took half a step back, as if she was already preparing to see the other off.

"Brother Black Sword! What should I do? I was asked about my past life and Miss Star Girl predicted that I was lying...!"

"Hey, brother Bell, it's not that I won't save you, the problem is that you exploded yourself this time... Could it be that you want to see me beat them up with force?"

'I……'

On the street, Bell looked at Xin Lailai with tears in his eyes, while Xin Lailai showed a helpless expression. Star Girl and Saint Ji, who were unaware of the secret communication between the two, stepped forward and said one after another with extraordinary determination:

"Mr. Black Sword, could you please move aside for a moment? I must get the truth out of him this time!!"

"I am the same. I am sorry, Mr. Black Sword. I can no longer sit idly by and watch Mr. Argo's situation. Please forgive me."

"..."

There is no other way. It seems they can only observe a moment of silence for Bell this time.

Facing the serious expressions of Star Girl and Saint Princess who were clearly trying to convince him to move aside even if they had to pay him money, Xin Lailai looked at Bell with a helpless expression, and was about to speak when -

"Take a look! This is an ancient magic item that can test how much two people love each other! Anyone interested would like to try it out? It only costs one imperial silver coin!"

Suddenly, a shout was heard coming from a street stall not far away that had obviously just opened, which made the four people present look surprised.

Among them, Xin Lailai's expression twitched slightly, Bell's face turned pale, while Xingnv and Shengji looked at Bell who was frozen there, and one on the left and one on the right revealed a smile that made people shudder inexplicably.

"Sister Shengji, since he refuses to speak, I suddenly thought of a good idea."

"It seems that I have the same idea as Sister Xingnv this time. In that case, how about letting Sister Xingnv go first this time?"

"Wait... wait a minute, Miss Star Girl, Miss Saint Ji, I... ugh! Wuuwuwu!!!"

"Please rest assured, Mr. Argo, we are just a little curious about your true feelings. Please don't resist."

As soon as he finished speaking, before the panicked white-haired boy could fall to the ground and resist, two spells of different methods blocked his mouth and the path of his mental power, one on the left and one on the right, leaving him whimpering and struggling desperately. However, he could not change the fact that the Star Girl and the Saint Girl were pulling his legs left and right like a sheep, and in despair, he was dragged by the two girls to the twin stone altars not far away where some young men and women had gathered.

"Get out of the way! Here are 100 Imperial gold coins. Tell me how to use this thing!"

"Okay...Okay, just stand on it and inject magic power, and then...then the scale below will show...show your affection for each other based on your situations."

"is it?"

In front of the stall, there was an astonishing chill that even made the surrounding young men and women silently retreat several meters away. After hearing the explanation of the stall owner who was so scared that he couldn't speak clearly, the star girl showed a charming smile on her beautiful face, and just like that, she grabbed the right leg of the white-haired boy and dragged him towards the stone altar in front of her that was like a weight in the man's desperate gaze.

“Woo! Woo woo woo… Woo woo woo!!!”

"Sister Shengji, please help me pull him~!"

"No problem, Sister Xingnu, I'm happy to help you~!"

The bell sound symbolizing the activation of the hero's vision rose from the white-haired boy along with white light, but the next second it was suppressed by the power of the stars and the holy light that fell from the sky. Just as the white-haired boy was about to be dragged to the stone altar by the Star Girl and the Saint Princess in despair to undergo the test of "one hundred percent failure if done", two heavy sinking sounds suddenly rang out -

boom--! !

Almost at the same time when the two women stepped on the two stone altars to pull the white-haired boy onto the stone altar, the two stone altars that were originally some distance away from the base suddenly fell down with a bang. The scales on the base suddenly turned, causing the two women, the white-haired boy, and Xin Lailai and Liu Bing, who had rushed over to watch the excitement from afar, to be stunned, because...

——The scales on the bases of the two stone altars suddenly jumped from '0' all the way to '99', and the maximum value was only '100'.

"???"

For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire venue seemed to fall silent. Star Girl and Saint Princess silently lowered their heads to look at the scale displayed on the stone altar under their feet, and walked down in an extremely tacit understanding. Then Star Girl took Bell to stand on the altar first, and this time the white-haired boy just remained silent and did not resist.

Bang~!

The next second, the stone altar sank, and the scale under the white-haired boy's feet suddenly fell from '0' to '84', while the scale under the star girl's feet stopped at '75'.

"..."

A huge and somewhat piercing silence fell, and it lasted for several seconds on the stone altar. Then the Star Girl walked down in silence and exchanged places with the Saint Princess. This time, the scales under Bell and the Saint Princess' feet on the altar changed to '81' and '76' respectively.

"..."

silence.

There is only silence.

For a moment, deathly silence spread from the street. Bell, who was sitting on the stone altar, looked at the Star Girl and Saint Princess in front of him who were silent. He blinked twice, as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.

"Um, little Star Girl..."

"There's something wrong with this magic item."

"Indeed, it seems that it is just a failure that cannot even distinguish between disgust and love and is simply testing the intensity of emotions."

After several minutes of silence, Xingnu and Shengji each uttered a few cold words, and then left from both sides of the street with expressionless faces. Xin Lailai and his group, who were watching the show in the distance, looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on the two women who had 'parted ways', and they blinked.

"Um, Brother Black Sword, will you invite these two to your next tea party?"

"Well, this... I am just responsible for the organization. The details are entirely up to you all."

On the street, Xin Lailai coughed lightly and said with a subtle expression, while he, Yuan, and even Mingyu and others who were silent by this scene seemed to be saying the same words.

"So, what should we do next?"

"I suggest returning." "Return."

"Well, I think it's good to return." "Indeed."

"Then fellow Taoists, see you in paradise?"

"Well, take care, Brother Daofa."

Finally, as if they had reached some kind of tacit understanding, everyone chose to return without any prior agreement, and disappeared from the spot one after another as if they were escaping, as if they were describing the expression language just now with their actions again:
This tea party... is fucking awesome!!
