Section 240, Page 226: The Head-Touching Offensive!

Estia searched high and low for so long, never expecting that what she was looking for was right beside her.

Star crystals are a type of energy crystal. Although Estia has never identified it, its grade should be no less than level 400, otherwise even a powerful person like her wouldn't be unable to see through its essence.

"Thank you so much, Ling, you've been a huge help!"

"Why are you asking this? You probably don't need energy crystals of grade 400 or higher, right?"

"It will come in handy, it will come in handy. Oh, I forgot to tell you, Rothschild gave me a weapon."

"What weapon?" Ling raised an eyebrow and gestured to Estia to extend her hand: "Take it out and let me see it."

Estia naturally took out the Holy Spirit Rifle without hesitation, and Ling couldn't help but gasp when she saw it.

"If the energy in the star crystal can be used as ammunition for this gun, then I will try to get more."

"Give it to me," Ling suddenly said.

"what?"

Give me the gun.

When Estia heard Ling say that, she thought Ling wanted to observe the structure of the gun up close, but for some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling, as if she would never get it back if she gave it to Ling.

So she immediately put the Divine Rifle into her backpack.

"Hey, give me the gun, I'm confiscating it."

Ling finally revealed her true purpose.

"Confiscate it?! No way, it's my gun."

"No, having this weapon in your hands is practically cheating. Give it to me now."

Ling's attitude was quite resolute, so it seemed that the gun in Esther's hand was likely to be in grave danger.

Estia knew very well that she could not go against Ling's wishes. If the other party really wanted to take the gun, then even if it was in her backpack, it would not be safe.

In a moment of desperation, she remembered that the bow on her tail also had a storage function, so she secretly transferred the Holy Spirit Rifle from her backpack into the bow on her tail.

Ling sneered, "Don't try such petty tricks. Believe me or not, I'll cut off your tail too."

At this moment, Esther was filled with regret, wondering why she had told the truth.

She couldn't allow such a powerful weapon to be confiscated by Ling, so she had to find a way to keep the gun.

A hard approach is definitely not going to work, so we have to use a softer approach.

Estia, shameless as ever, charged straight at Ling.

"What are you doing? Trying to attack me?"

"Lord Ling~"

(Damn, this is so cheesy and disgusting)

Despite saying things she didn't mean, Esther ran up to Ling and reached out to stroke Ling's head.

She remembered that Ling should like being like this, and that this world administrator allowed Esther to touch her body without fear of punishment.

"Ugh! You... don't think that just because of this... ugh~"

Under Esther's head-patting offensive, Ling's tone and manner of speaking changed, no longer as forceful as before.

"Have pity on me, let me keep this gun, so I can better protect my family in the future, right?"

Estia played the emotional card, talking about how tragic her past experiences were, and how if such a powerful weapon had existed in the past, she could have protected her family from harm.

"The problem is that your family is perfectly fine... Ugh, stop touching me."

Although she said that, Ling's eyes narrowed uncontrollably, clearly enjoying Esther's caresses.

Estia was very anxious. She didn't believe that Ling would be won over by her head-patting offensive, but she couldn't think of any other way. She couldn't beat her in a fight, and she couldn't run away. She could only place her hopes on the relationship she had with Ling since they met.

However, sometimes Esther would wonder how this world administrator, or rather, the god, viewed her. Did he see her as a friend, or as an ordinary being under his control?

"Okay, okay, I won't confiscate it, but there are conditions."

"Name your conditions!"

"There are two conditions... First, you have to do the task as soon as I issue it in the future. Second... second, you have to pat my head when I state my request in the future."

Estia is one of the very few mortal races that she doesn't dislike, and by "not dislike" she means physical contact.

It feels very comfortable to be patted on the head, and Ling has always maintained a youthful appearance, which has led to her having a special fondness for head patting.

"I agree."

Estella gave this answer on the surface, but she was inwardly shocked. How could Ling make such a request?

"And don't tell Ye Qingxian, otherwise I'm afraid she'll overthink it."

"Huh? Why do you make it sound like you're having an affair?"

In Esther's view, touching someone's head has nothing to do with having an affair. In fact, if Ling doesn't mind, she would even ask Xiao Ye to touch Ling's head with her.

Even now, Esther still finds it unbelievable that the world's ruler would become so agreeable just because of being patted on the head... Could it be that Ling deliberately used this reason to save face?

No matter what, the other party is the world administrator. In the other party's eyes, she is no different from the sand on the roadside. The difference in status cannot be eliminated unless she can also become a god, but that is too far away and too dreamlike.

"Okay, okay, stop talking so much."

Ling took Estya's hand away, her cheeks slightly flushed. In Estya's eyes, if you disregarded the other person's identity, she really did look like a shy little sister next door.

Of course, there are no little sisters like that in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss.

"The Holy Spirit Rifle is a very powerful weapon. It can be very effective when used in critical moments, but you should not be too flamboyant in ordinary times."

"Don't worry, I'm not going around announcing that I have such a powerful weapon."

"In that case... it's time to give you a task."

"what?"

"What do you mean, 'huh'? Didn't you just promise me?"

"No, I just didn't expect the mission to come so soon."

Estya already has a long-term mission from Ling, which is to gain the favor of half of all living beings. Now Ling is going to give her a new mission, which makes her quite curious.

"Since we met, I've given you quite a few tasks, and you've completed most of them perfectly. I hope you'll succeed in this one."

"Any task is fine, as long as it's within my capabilities."

"uh-huh."

Ling slowly relayed the mission requirements to Esther and added a detailed description of the mission to Esther's system.

Estia was somewhat distracted because the mission Ling issued was completely different from before, which was quite unexpected.

"You must complete this mission perfectly, or I will confiscate your Holy Spirit Rifle."

After saying that, Ling left, leaving Esther standing there in a daze.

Why? Why would Ling issue such a task...?

Section 241, Chapter 227: The Pentagonal Warrior

Ye Qingxian traversed mountains and rivers, finally arriving at a region completely different in style from Youjing Longyuan.

She struck the ground with her pickaxe, making a clanging sound, but the ground remained motionless.

This is permafrost, where the soil has become quite hard due to the constant cold.

"Haah~"

Exhaling a breath of hot air that formed white mist in the air, Ye Qingxian took the heat source stone out of her backpack and stuffed it into her clothes.

She doesn't know magic, so she can only rely on external forces to cope with the cold environment. Right now, she's wearing unusually thick clothes, the kind that she wouldn't feel at all if she fell to the ground.

It was so cold, and the weather was terrible. Every now and then, a cold wind would blow in my face, like a knife cutting into my skin.

Ye Qingxian, who lives on Earth, has never been to the Arctic or Antarctic, but in her imagination, only those places could be so cold.

This is the northern region of the continent of Faya, where the climate is extremely harsh. However, many races still live in the northern region, including humans. Through countless generations of life, they have adapted to the climate here.

The Catastrophe Hunter Guild actually chose this location. Ye Qingxian thought of the eerie undead girl. Yunia was an undead, so her body shouldn't feel the cold. Therefore, it didn't matter where the guild headquarters was located.

But you should at least consider the feelings of the living...

Ye Qingxian didn't know how many Star Crystal Hunters there were, let alone whether they had all joined the Star Crystal Hunter Guild. In any case, if they were human, they would definitely complain about the location of the headquarters in their hearts.

"Ow~"

What was bound to happen has finally happened. During this time, Ye Qingxian has killed countless wild beasts and monsters. Winter has arrived in the Northern Territory, and the scarcity of food resources in the wild means that she is nothing more than a walking "piece of meat" in the eyes of wild beasts and monsters.

Even though she was wrapped in thick clothes, the predators on the snowfield could still smell the aroma of her flesh and blood.

A pack of snow-white wolves appeared in Ye Qingxian's line of sight. They appeared from different directions, forming a pincer movement around Ye Qingxian.

"Wolves, I hate wolves the most."

The idea that Ye Qingxian dislikes wolves is something she's only come up with in the last few days. The reason is that the places she rests at night are all in the wilderness, and every night, she can hear all kinds of wolf howls, which makes it hard for her to sleep.

Ye Qingxian is level 100, and so are all the wolves. The snowfield beneath her feet is a level 100 map area.

Being at the same level doesn't mean being equally strong. In most cases, wild monsters are weaker than players of the same level. However, if the opponent is a whole pack of wolves, even the best-equipped player will have to find a way to escape.

But Ye Qingxian is different. Ye Qingxian's profession is a rare one called Star Crystal Dragon Knight. This profession provides much higher base attributes than other ordinary professions, so she is able to fight head-on with the wolf pack.

Before entering combat, Ye Qingxian equipped herself with various divine-grade equipment obtained from Estya's treasury, instantly transforming her into a well-rounded warrior with high attack, high health, and high speed.

There's nothing he can do, she has powerful connections. That's the advantage of having a wife! While other players were still fantasizing about Estia's screenshots and CGs, Ye Qingxian was already sleeping soundly in bed with Estia.

That's the difference!

Wearing the equipment given to her by Esther, Ye Qingxian's loneliness during this period was swept away, as if Esther was right beside her.

The wolves howled and prepared to charge. Wild animals are wild animals after all. They couldn't tell that the person in front of them was not someone to be trifled with. They would only realize that this was someone they couldn't afford to mess with after they had fought.

Ye Qingxian took out a two-meter-long giant sword from her backpack. With her super high attribute bonus, she could easily wield this heavy weapon.
