I will traverse countless worlds and become a god entirely on my own!

Naturally, no one would pursue this matter further. Although everyone harbored some admiration for the beautiful proprietress, they all understood that some things should not be taken too far.

I just wonder which bastard will benefit from it in the future.

"I'm really looking forward to you coming back and telling me the stories from there!"

Sosia rested her chin on her hand, her eyes slightly narrowed, her elegant demeanor causing Bai Ye to sigh inwardly. As expected of an elf, the most beautiful girls in Arad are probably the elves and those from the Demon Realm.

Of course, places like the celestial realm also have many beautiful sights to see.

"."

I have a feeling that if this continues, I might be developing a tendency to be a simp.

Bai Ye temporarily suppressed these chaotic thoughts in his heart, feeling that it was better not to think about those ridiculous love stories at this time.

Bai Ye no longer fantasizes that Sosia has feelings for him; she's only going to the Grand Forest because he's going there.

"Sosia, I'm leaving. I'll let you know if I get any news from inside."

Bai Ye stood up and prepared to leave for Grand Forest.

I wonder if I can meet the Thirteenth Apostle in the Grand Forest.

"kindness."

Looking at Bai Ye's back, Sosia was also a little lost in thought, as if he had really changed.

But I just saw him yesterday, how could he have changed so much today?

After leaving Sosia's tavern, Bai Ye went to find the blacksmith Linus.

"Uncle Linus, do you have a longsword I can use?"

Now that he has the Ghost Hand, Bai Ye is prepared to abandon his original fist and at least for now, he should follow the path of the Ghost Swordsman.

In addition, he has various abilities from other worlds, so he actually has quite a few abilities available now, but he still needs to improve his own strength.

Unfortunately, he doesn't have a game template and can't grind monsters to level up. He's actually quite confused about how to improve his strength. Perhaps the only way is to get rid of this human body or break through his limits using the human body.

Physical suffering, mechanical ascension. Join the glorious evolution!

"A longsword? Didn't you say you were going to forge an iron fist?"

Linus's expression after he finished speaking clearly conveyed the message that young people should be grounded and not act on a whim.

"I feel I have a natural talent for fighting, Uncle Linus, I'm going to go into the swordsmanship style!"

"Bai Ye, I do have a longsword, and I can give you a discount. Are you in such a hurry to use a sword? Have you taken on a quest?"

Linus asked curiously.

Bai Ye naturally didn't try to hide anything from him, nodding in agreement: "That's right, head to Grand Forest."

"Cattle!"

Linus looked up at Bai Ye in surprise, then gave him a thumbs up.

He admired Bai Ye quite a bit, but he figured it was normal for a young person to be energetic.

"Then you'd better be careful. Some of the goblins from Loran left for Grand Forest. I've heard a lot of monster attacks lately, and even the timid goblins have become ferocious!"

Linus helped Bai Ye choose a weapon while giving him some reminders.

"Uncle Linus, I have enough money. Can you pick out a slightly more expensive one for me?"

Bai Ye still had some money left. He had saved up quite a bit from doing missions before, and now he had enough to buy a decent knife.

"Hey kid, here's your Autumn Leaf Blade. You'd better treat it well, like you would your lover!"

As he spoke, Linus pulled out a crimson katana from a pile of knives and placed it in front of Bai Ye.

"Forget about the money. I was your master for a while, after all. Take this knife with you!"

For a period of time, Bai Ye learned blacksmithing from me, so I guess you could call me half his master?

PS: The DNF author played through versions 95 to 100. Well, some of the story seems to have changed. I spent all day catching up on the story today, and this might be the only one left. I'll need to add more tomorrow QAQ

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 212 Celia, pay back the money! Primordial Light, Great Magician Mar, Nimère!

"Autumn Leaf Blade, I really miss it."

Bai Ye stroked the Autumn Leaf Blade in his hand. When he picked up the blade again, he recalled those passionate years.

"Not bad!"

Seeing Bai Ye's appearance, Linus was quite satisfied with Bai Ye.

Linus had just said that one should treat a knife like a lover, and the way Bai Ye looked when he took the Autumn Leaf Blade the next second made him realize that his knife had not been entrusted to the wrong person.

You really treat it like a lover!

Linus stroked his chin, shocked but understanding of Bai Ye's actions.

Perhaps he has a different understanding of the lover he is referring to.

"Hey, you should probably look away from that."

Linus raised his left hand to his mouth and coughed lightly, warning Bai Ye that that was enough.

How long are you going to keep touching this knife?

"It was just that I was thinking about some things from the past."

Bai Ye snapped out of his daze, tucked the knife into his waistband, and then looked at Linus gratefully, saying, "Uncle Linus, I'll be going now if there's nothing else."

As expected of the kindest person in the starting village, in the game, according to the storyline, most people are just using the adventurers. There are actually very few who are truly good to the adventurers. Linus is one, and his wife Alizee is another. After all, they give the airship after completing the mission. Everyone else is eager for the adventurers to leave as soon as possible after completing the mission. If there is trouble, the adventurers will leave.

Sure enough, everyone at the Elwin Line seemed to be talented, and they all spoke so nicely. He loved it here!

"Go on, kid. It's not shameful to run away when you run into trouble!"

Watching Bai Ye's retreating figure, Linus left a message and turned back to his forge to continue forging.

Although it seems to be Bai Ye's first real mission, running away like this will likely cast an immeasurable shadow on Bai Ye's future.

But at least people should be able to come back alive, right?

of course

Is he the kind of guy who would never give up on what he believes in, even if it means death?

As Linus pondered, he looked up at the spot where Bai Ye had left, and a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

Gran Forest.

Before experiencing that fire, the impact of Sirocco was not too severe.

Although the plants and animals have gradually descended into madness, there are still many people who are maintaining the Grand Forest.

Upon entering the Grand Forest, Bai Ye was approached by the elves, who held bows and arrows, aiming them at him. The leading elf captain looked at Bai Ye with a scrutinizing gaze, then spoke to himself, "Another greedy person. There's no treasure you're looking for outside the Grand Forest!"

The elves are peace-loving and rarely fight with humans.

They had already seen far too many people who wanted to come to Grand Forest in search of treasure.

Every time I deal with them, I just have to drive them away.

Even so, many people still lingered on the outskirts of the forest, waiting for their chance.

"I'm looking for treasure?"

A hint of doubt flashed in Bai Ye's eyes, and then he remembered something.

It seems that after the relocation event, the natural phenomena here were severely damaged, and the defensive capabilities of the Grand Forest have been eliminated.

Countless people seeking treasure and overnight riches flocked to Grand Forest, shattering its tranquility.

So, it seems the elf wasn't wrong to think of himself as one of those people. After all, everyone who comes here seems to think this way, except for you.

"Grand Forest needs peace!"

"No, I didn't come for the treasure. I came to investigate the anomalies in the Grand Forest."

Bai Ye shook his head and took out the mission book he had accepted, tossing it to the elf captain.

He didn't want to clash with the elves here. Firstly, even if he defeated them, there would be many more elves, and he probably wouldn't be a match for them. Secondly, he didn't want to have such an awkward relationship with Celia.

After all, we spent so many years together, and even though we saw so many warriors going in and out of Celia's room, everyone still firmly believed that she loved me, even though there was a man standing behind her asking her to trick him into recharging 500 ball coins.

"Captain, these people are going to go to such lengths to get in these days!"

"No, this has the certification of the Principality of Belmar."

The elf captain shook his head. He recognized the certification; it possessed a special magic. Besides, the other party didn't really need to bring it in, unlike those searching for treasure.

Isn't it possible to come in when the defense is lax?

Bai Ye could easily break in just like them, since their defense wasn't flawless.

"But what is the current situation in Grand Forest?"

The guards standing nearby were also worried. Although it was true, were they really going to let him in?

The situation inside the forest is becoming increasingly complicated, and even they are now somewhat at a loss.

At first, only a small number of plants and animals entered a berserk state, but as time went on, the berserk state of the plants and animals spread rapidly, in addition to the goblins that recently broke into the Grand Forest.

The Grand Forest is no longer as peaceful as it once was, whether people are searching for treasure or investigating what's going on inside.

Perhaps their appearance will only make the already turbulent Grand Forest even more turbulent.

"Let him in."

The elf captain tossed the mission book back to Bai Ye. He knew very well that since he had accepted the mission, he couldn't possibly give up so soon.

So rather than inevitably having to fight Bai Ye, or having Bai Ye sneak in on his own, it's better to just let Bai Ye in directly.

"But."

The guards tried to say something, but the captain waved them off.

Seeing this, a black line flashed in Bai Ye's eyes. Your boss has already agreed, so why are you still arguing here?

How about we show the health bar?
