Miss Dragon, the BOSS, will not be captured.

The town's NPCs are extremely high level; a single normal attack can instantly kill many fragile players. Although someone was shouting for help in the alley, which player dared to push the NPC aside and come in to check the situation?

"Heh, you think you can hide your identity and we won't find out?"

A tall guard simply put away his sword, since Ye Qingxian posed no threat to him anyway.

"What exactly do you want?!"

Ye Qingxian had no way out and leaned her back against the wall.

"Hehe... what do you think I want to do?"

"Don't come any closer!"

Ye Qingxian took out her weapon, which she used as a bard, but the difference in level left her in despair.

She cannot exit the game now, and there is no physical protection mechanism as a player. With the realism being completely simulated, everything is equivalent to reality for her.

And suicide is forbidden in town, so is she really going to...?

Please, can anyone help me...? I really don't want to play this game anymore.

For all this time, it hasn't been her playing the game, but the game playing her!

Section 51, Chapter 046: An Old Acquaintance Appears

The scene involving several burly men with ill intentions and a young maid trapped in the alley is quite predictable if the story continues.

Ye Qingxian suddenly shivered; she felt a chill, unsure if it was because she knew her fate was about to be sealed...

However, hope always arrives before despair. A silver-white figure appeared before her eyes, and then a blizzard swept through the alley. After a few seconds of howling, everything fell silent.

The guards remained in the same position, but they had become ice sculptures and could never speak again.

After Estya's performance, she still admired her masterpiece with great interest.

Then she looked at Ye Qingxian, her sharp tongue kicking in, and mocked her before Ye Qingxian could speak, "Useless."

"I……"

"The weak can only be protected by the strong, but the strong owe you nothing."

"..."

Ye Qingxian clenched her fists. She felt wronged because she didn't belong in this place. With her level, she should be leveling up in a low-level area. But ever since she was captured by Esther, she had never seen anyone with a lower level than her.

It's inherently unreasonable to allow someone of such low rank to be active in a high-level area.

Estia wanted to continue recounting Ye Qingxian's story, but suddenly leaned against the wall.

"Ahem... Did you buy what I asked you to buy?"

"Sorry, not yet."

"Then why aren't you going yet?" Estia's tail drooped to the ground, she braced herself against the wall with one hand, cold sweat seemed to be dripping down her forehead, and there was a clear problem in her tone of voice.

"Are you alright?" Ye Qingxian noticed Estya's unusual behavior, but the silver dragon girl waved her hand dismissively: "What could possibly be wrong with me? And can you please mind your own business... umm..."

"?"

If I heard correctly, Estia seemed to have made a cute panting sound just now?

"Why are you looking at me? Oh right, you can't move freely in human towns in your current identity."

Estia raised her hand and aimed it at Ye Qingxian. Then, Ye Qingxian's body was covered by a blue light, which disappeared shortly afterward.

"what happened?"

“I have cast a disguise spell on you to ensure that your identity will not be detected.”

"Thank you. By the way, what happened to you?"

Estya is currently leaning against the wall with her legs together and her tail drooping. She seems to be in a poor mental state.

"I'm very good."

Estia flew up and kicked Ye Qingxian in the butt with controlled force: "Hurry up and go buy things. You must be back before dark."

After saying that, she summoned a teleportation array and disappeared in front of Ye Qingxian, leaving only a little frost behind.

Ye Qingxian was a little worried. This wasn't the first time Esther had shown abnormal behavior. She had also acted strangely back in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss.

Unfortunately, Esther was unwilling to talk to her much, which is why she still doesn't know what happened and can only make various guesses.

If only she knew what had happened, she would do her best to help Esther since Esther had helped her.

Ye Qingxian recalled a certain undead girl in military uniform, whose name was Yunia. Judging from the information she provided about the effects of star spot disease and dragon tears, she seemed to be quite reliable.

Should we find an opportunity to go to her old gravesite again to look for her? Ye Qingxian also had some questions she wanted to ask.

We'll discuss the specifics when we return to Youjing Longyuan. Right now, we need to focus on procuring supplies.

Before leaving, Ye Qingxian looked at the ice sculptures in front of her and kicked them angrily.

This was the only way she could express her anger, but at the same time, Estia's words kept echoing in her ears.

waste……

She didn't want to be a useless person. In reality, she was a useless person because of her poor physical condition, but in the game, she should be the opposite.

Ye Qingxian had always played "Faya Continent" as a casual game, but the current situation forced her to find a way to become stronger and protect herself.

Just as Esther said, she couldn't always be protected by the strong; she should become strong herself.

But let's go buy supplies first...

Ye Qingxian opened the task list and read the procurement list for this task. When she confirmed that everything was fine and was about to close it, she suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Why does the experience reward for this procurement task seem to have two extra zeros?

Ye Qingxian confirmed several times that the reward really did have two extra zeros.

This...this can't be possible, right?

The experience points from a regular procurement task can almost raise her level by more than ten levels.

However, the task also had a time limit, and there would be terrible consequences if the task was not completed on time. Therefore, Ye Qingxian did not have time to think about it and planned to quickly purchase supplies.

Stepping out of the dark alley, the warm sunlight shone on her, and her mood improved.

Estia's disguise magic is very useful; she will no longer be recognized by other NPCs, allowing her to carry out purchasing tasks more effectively.

"Ugh."

As Ye Qingxian brushed past a passerby, she heard the passerby let out an extremely helpless sigh.

The passerby walked with his head down, perfectly embodying the meaning of dejection. Ye Qingxian stopped and chased after him a few seconds later.

She grabbed the passerby's arm and twisted his body around.

"It's really you!"

"You are……"

"I never expected to meet you here. How have you been lately?"

Ye Qingxian remembered that Esther had said that Luo Huawu had already quit the game.

Unexpectedly, she saw Luo Huawu again on the streets of Yashan City.

"Ugh."

Luo Huawu was no longer as energetic as before; now she looked more like an old woman with one foot in the grave, having lost interest in everything.

However, when she saw Ye Qingxian wearing a maid outfit, her eyes lit up again.

She's a doujinshi artist, and her fascination with erotic content is ingrained in her DNA.

"Where did you get such a colorful outfit? You couldn't have designed it yourself, could you?"

As a game with a high degree of freedom, players of "Faya Continent" can design their own clothes. However, if they want to trade them, they must be approved by the system. Even if they wear them themselves, if they wear revealing clothes and are reported by others, they will be confiscated and punished by the system.

As a doujinshi artist, Luo Huawu's works are all circulated privately, and the buyers all adhere to the principle that those who know, know, so they will not be detected by the system.

In her opinion, Ye Qingxian's clothes, which were revealing yet not overtly provocative, were completely prohibited by the system, yet Ye Qingxian dared to openly appear on the street.

Regarding Ye Qingxian's maid outfit, it can't be described as overly erotic, since it covers up everything that needs to be covered. It just gives off a hazy, ambiguous feel, which actually makes it look more sophisticated.

"Can we talk? I have something I want to tell you."

Luo Huawu thought she would never see Ye Qingxian again, but now that such a coincidence has occurred, she has to tell Ye Qingxian what she has done.

To get revenge on Esther, Luo Huawu drew a doujinshi based on Ye Qingxian bullying Esther. The reason for doing so was simple: she hoped that when Esther saw it in the future, she would feel extremely humiliated.

The sickly top and the tsundere bottom are a perfect match.

"Thanks, let's add each other as friends and chat another day."

Although Ye Qingxian really wanted to talk to Luo Huawu, Esther's mission was the most important thing right now, and she dared not imagine the consequences of failing the mission.

Moreover, the large amount of experience gained upon successful completion of the mission was also a reward that appealed to her.

PS2: Regarding the top/bottom issue, I've considered it before. There's no absolute top or bottom. I want both tsundere tops and tsundere bottoms, sickly tops and sickly bottoms!

Section 52, Chapter 047: The Power of Stardust

The Land of Summoning Spirits, a place that has existed since the birth of the Netherworld Dragon Abyss, has always puzzled Esther, who couldn't understand the meaning of its existence.

Now that Esther has set foot on this land again, a chilling aura greets her, but she smiles and continues walking forward.

Because she found a clue.

Fog gradually rose around them, and a pair of gray eyes stared at Esther through the fog.

"Aren't you going to come out and see me?" Estia stopped.

"I didn't expect them to find us so quickly."

"Although I'm usually a homebody and lazy, it doesn't mean I'm stupid."
