Miss Dragon, the BOSS, will not be captured.

She broke free from Chu Jinlan's embrace, straightened her clothes slightly, took out a handkerchief from her backpack to wipe away her tears, and regained her usual lively demeanor: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Kelu! I am a healing mage!"

"My name is Chu Jinlan..."

Chu Jinlan could no longer reveal her game name, "Shang Shan Ruo Shui" (meaning "the best is like water"). Anyway, almost everyone knew her real name now, so it wouldn't matter if she said it.

"I know your name is Chu Jinlan. Can we be friends? I'll take you to level up!"

Kelu grabbed Chu Jinlan's hand and whispered, "We agreed to see who could reach the maximum level first. I'm already over level 30, while Sister Chu would only be around level 10 even if she turned into an NPC..."

Chu Jinlan heard Kelu's mutterings because her vision and hearing had recently become very good, and she could hear even the faintest sounds.

Oh, this silly child.

After entering the game, Chu Jinlan only thought about finding her younger sister. She had agreed to compete with Kelu to see who could level up faster, but she was just going along with Kelu's interest.

"I still need to go find my sister...daughter, I'll go out another day."

"Daughter? Oh right, you also have a 17-year-old daughter..."

Kelu's expression turned sad again, because she knew that the girl named Ye Qingxian had also died in reality. Even if she was made into an NPC, they were still mother and daughter... It seems that the game company is still quite humane.

If technology could be more advanced, then people who die in the real world could be turned into NPCs and inherit their memories, and her Sister Chu would still be the same Sister Chu.

"I'll go with you."

"Huh? This isn't quite right."

Because she logged off in a hurry last time, Chu Jinlan was unable to return to the Netherworld Dragon Abyss with the teleportation array. Although she had never been there before, she knew that it was the lair of monsters and that players could not go there.

"What's wrong with that? I may only be level 30 now, but I've saved up a lot of money! Tell me where you want to go, and we'll just use the teleportation array!"

"You should keep that money. I can walk by myself. Don't bother me."

"Waaah, Sister Chu still doesn't like to trouble others."

"..."

Chu Jinlan felt a bit of a headache. After starting to act as an NPC, dealing with the relationships with the friends she had made as a player became a problem.

It was late at night, and her younger sister should still be asleep, so Chu Jinlan decided not to send a message to inquire about the location of Youjing Longyuan.

She thought for a moment and said, "I plan to leave tomorrow. It's so late, you should go to sleep."

(I'll figure out a way to get rid of them later.)

"No, no, I'm a night owl."

"Koro..."

"Anyway, I want to stay with Sister Chu right now!"

"Ugh……"

The girl in front of her was not ill-intentioned; Chu Jinlan could sense that she genuinely missed her friend.

Unfortunately, she couldn't tell Kelu the truth, otherwise everything she had done would have been meaningless.

PS2: I slightly modified the 101 chapters that weren't taken down before and released them as free chapters. You should be able to find them there.

Chapter 124, Section 117: Miss Long is actually a thief.

Although Estia is a magical beast, she dislikes damp caves.

She emerged from the cave just as dawn broke, the air filled with the fresh scent of rain.

Last night, Ye Qingxian asked her about her past experiences, but she brushed it off with a joke, as she didn't want to tell anyone about that tragic experience.

However, if she truly intends to stay with Ye Qingxian forever and build an unwavering love, then the things she said in the past will not matter.

In fact, Esther felt that her past was nothing special; it was just a story about revenge, except that she still hadn't found her real enemy.

The land outside was all muddy, and Estia disliked mud. She could always think of the experience of falling into the mud when she was a child while fleeing.

A gentle breeze blew by, and Esther felt something brush against her face, making her feel itchy.

She took it and looked at it...it was a feather.

"Angel's Feather: Origin Unknown"

Angel...

Estia didn't like those guys either, because they always made a blinding special effect when they appeared, and they also lost a lot of feathers from their wings.

Although angel feathers are excellent alchemical materials, Estia's treasury is not lacking in items of that quality.

She was about to throw the feather elsewhere when suddenly it began to glow, and an extremely terrifying aura gradually appeared. Estia's dragon tail instantly stood up, as if facing a formidable enemy.

The feathers transformed into specks of light, flying from Estia's palm and landing on the ground in front of her.

The world AI, Ling, appeared before Esther, a confident smile on her face, and then—

Splat!

"Ouch!"

Ling glanced at the mud beneath her feet, then jumped up, landing on the ground and splashing even more mud.

This white-haired little girl looks to be only eight years old and appears rather clumsy, but don't be fooled by her appearance. Estia believes that this old woman has maintained such a youthful form to lower others' guard.

"How did you get here!?"

Ling was very surprised. In her memory, Estia had always been a homebody dragon who would never leave the Netherworld Dragon Abyss outside of the time she issued missions.

What are you doing here?

Estya countered with a question.

"Haven't you always stayed at home? Has the sun risen in the west?"

"Don't talk about me, aren't you the same?"

Judging from their conversation, it seemed more like a conversation between friends, and there was no indication of the vast difference in their social status.

“Every time you descend to the mortal world, it is unique.”

Estya couldn't help but complain.

During the thousand years that Estella lived in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss, she had seen Ling 11 times. Each time, her appearance was very bizarre. This time, turning into a feather was relatively normal, but last time, this guy actually turned into a lollipop and appeared in the Netherworld Dragon Abyss supply officer's purchasing bag.

Estia still vividly remembers the shock she felt when the lollipop suddenly turned into a human face as she was about to lick it.

"So what brings you here?"

"Important news! Don't you want to know the truth behind the destruction of the Dragon Kingdom?"

"Yes, tell me now."

"You wish! What did you promise me back then? That I wouldn't be seduced for a year."

"Oh, if that's what you're asking about, then I'll tell you..."

Estia's relaxed expression vanished, replaced by a serious one: "My mother told me to live well. Finding the truth behind the kingdom's destruction has always been my obsession, but that's all in the past. What I should do is protect the present."

"You, could it be that you...?"

Ling never expected that Esther would have such awareness, knowing that the affairs of this world are more important than those of the past.

"If we're talking about priorities, isn't living, and living well, the most important thing?"

“You’ve never said these things to me in a thousand years…”

It has only been a month since we last met, but I never expected that Estia would undergo such a dramatic change. The cause of this change must be the human girl sleeping in the cave.

Ling knew Ye Qingxian because she had driven Ye Qingxian away many years ago, and according to her observation, Ye Qingxian now should not remember the past at all. What a pitiful experimental subject.

Leaving aside Ye Qingxian's matter, Ling's purpose in coming here was to inform and warn Esther.

"I'm here today to tell you that the original mission wasn't a failure; I changed the mission requirements."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing Ling's words, Esther opened her quest log and nearly spat out her drink when she saw the new quest requirements.

What the hell is this? What does it mean to not lose one's virginity within a year?

To be honest, Estia had always thought that "strategy" meant that she, as the final boss, would be defeated by the player. She was already shocked enough when the player told her that a strategy about love also counted as a strategy. Now that the world AI has changed the mission requirements like this, it's like the real requirements have been shoved in her face.

"You really don't want me to be captured? Why?"

"Because you are not a minor."

"What? This counts as a reason?"

Estia is currently in her semi-adult stage, or in human terms, a teenage girl in puberty.

However, the world's AI didn't want to talk about this, and instead brought up another matter—

"Also, the Netherworld Invasion event will end today, and your Netherworld Dragon Abyss dungeon will open tomorrow."

"Didn't we agree on a month?"

“I checked the data, and since the data is now normal, there is no need to delay.”

"whispering sound."

"What tsk? Tell me, just how many privilege-level items did you steal from me?"

Stealing is shameful. Ling couldn't understand how Esther, who was a well-behaved dragon when she was young, developed the habit of stealing. Perhaps it really was because of the dragon race's greedy instinct?

"I've already returned it all to you."

Miss Silver Dragon absolutely refused to admit that she possessed any privilege-level items.

Actually, the theft happened a long time ago. To put it simply, the World AI invited her to visit the Divine Kingdom, and she accidentally entered the World AI's treasure vault. She thought that with so many treasures, it wouldn't hurt to take a few.

So she secretly took a tiny bit (a tiny bit) and hid it in an absolutely safe place. Although the world AI is responsible for maintaining the operation of the world, it is sometimes subject to many restrictions. Therefore, even if it directly launches a natural disaster and blows up the entire world, it still will not know where Esther hid the item.

"You're talking nonsense. I saw you in your dungeon last time."

There are many privilege-level items, and the world AI doesn't want to reclaim them all. Therefore, the known privilege-level items that Esther currently possesses are all items that the world AI has tacitly allowed her to keep.

However, some items that can significantly affect the overall game world experience must be retrieved. For example, the item that Estella used to modify the difficulty of the dungeon was retrieved, but it is still unknown whether the Silver Dragon Girl has any other privilege-level items.
