Chapter IX
Whoosh!
Xiamu let out a long sigh of relief. He felt that he was overthinking things. The Goddess of Light would never notice a small tavern owner like him.
Xia Mu took the token and glanced at it casually before putting it in the drawer of the tavern. He said,
"Then I'll accept it!"
After heaving a sigh of relief, Rierna's expression turned serious. He led the other knights and performed a standard knight salute.
"Then! Boss Xia, we'll take our leave!"
Nodding his head, Xiamu smiled and said,"
"Goodbye! Rierna, have a safe journey."
After thanking him, Rierna left the tavern with his team of knights.
Just as he was about to sit down, Xiamu glanced at the professionals in the tavern.
The respect that Rierna and the others had shown him had undoubtedly aroused the curiosity of these professionals.
Although they had guessed that Xia Mu's identity wasn't simple, now that the silver Paladin badge was given to Xia Mu, this proved that Xia Mu was an existence that no one present could afford to offend.
This was a real big shot!
In an instant, the professionals who were drinking occasionally looked at Xiamu with even more respect than before.
Xiamu didn't care about this and continued to do his own thing.
This group of noob professionals, who were generally at most level 15, posed no threat to him at all. He did not have to worry at all.
As long as he did not leave the tavern, he would be fine!
If that was the case, what was there to fear?
……
In the blink of an eye, a month passed by.
On this day-
Age of Gods, year 9012, 15th of October!
Boom!
An unimaginably terrifying divine might swept across the vast Holy Continent. As this power erupted, a terrifying divine light rushed out from all parts of the huge Holy Continent.
The colors of these divine lights were all different. They gathered above the Holy Continent and formed a huge colorless ball of light.
In the blink of an eye, some information appeared in the minds of all the living beings on the entire continent.
The information about the players that were about to appear in the Holy Continent made everyone understand what kind of existence these players were.
In the Happy Red Courtyard tavern, Xia Mu, who was not open for business today, also received this message.
A small ball of white light from the statue of the Goddess of Light in the center of the Starter Town. It contains information about the players who are about to log in, as well as information about the town as a Starter Town.
After checking all the information in the ball of light, a smile appeared on Xiamu's face."
"To encourage the residents of the town to issue quests to the players who have logged in, and to actively treat the players who have logged in?”
Seeing this, Xia Mu couldn't help but pinch his chin and say,"
"Looks like these players are very important to the Gods!”
Turning his head, Xiamu looked at the center of the town. On the statue of the Goddess of Light was a countdown timer.
00:59:45！
There was still an hour before the players would log in.
With a smile on his face, Xiamu retracted his gaze and tapped his finger lightly."
"System, I want to exchange for a skill."
Ding! The God of Wine's Shop was opened.
This time, before the system could list out the skills that would make people envious and cheat them, Xiamu already had a target in his heart.
"System, give me the passive skill Weapon Mastery and Basic Sword Technique.”
Xiamu said softly,"
"Exchange for the passive skill Heavenly Sound and the domain of the God of Wine.”
[Weapon Mastery: Beginner. Quickly learn all weapons. Consumes 200 Points.] 2000 Points to level up
[Basic Sword Technique: Beginner, the basic sword technique of a Swordsman that has been tempered for a long time. Consumes 500 points.] 5000 Points to level up
[Heavenly Sound: Beginner. Increases casting speed by 5%. Consumes 200 Points.] 2000 Points to level up
[Wine God's Domain: Beginner. Control spell. After being released, the user can control everything within a 10-meter radius. The user can control everything within a 10-meter radius. Consumes 2000 points.] 200000 Points to level up
Exchange completed. Current Points Balance: 190 Points
As soon as the system finished speaking, Xiamu felt that he had returned to the feeling before he was liberated.
He had earned more than 3,000 points this month, but now, all of them were gone.
Pinching his chin, Xia Mu said,"
"Putting aside the two passive skills, these two active skills are quite good. The price of basic sword techniques was definitely not that simple. Just the evaluation of being tempered a thousand times was worth it.”
"As for the Wine God's Domain, the Wine God series won't be bad. This effect is indeed powerful, but the intermediate level requires 200,000 points…a huge amount of points!”
Rubbing the space between his eyebrows, Xia Mu didn't feel too conflicted.
There was no point in being conflicted!
Xiamu looked at the player login timer, stood up, and opened the shop door.
A new era had arrived. It was time to open the doors and welcome guests!
An hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Today, Xiamu's tavern was deserted because the professionals were very curious about the players, so they did not come over.
There were only one or two people here.
By the way, the wine in the tavern could only be old white wine.
Red Star's Erguotou was enraged. To these low-level rookies, it was a direct rage.
Before the effect was over, they were all people who didn't care about life and death and fought if they weren't convinced!
Therefore, Xiamu added another rule to the tavern's rules:
Level 20 and below, Red Star Erguotou is not allowed to be consumed in the shop.
There was no movement when the players logged in. It was just that the flow of people in this Starter Town suddenly increased in a short period of time.
Ding!
Ding!
Ding!
Not long after, the bell at the entrance of the tavern kept ringing. A few people wearing basic equipment without attribute bonuses kept walking in with special symbols on their bodies.
These people were the players!
Xiamu stood at the bar counter and looked at the players who walked in. He smiled and said,"
"Welcome to Joy Red Court! What do you want to drink? Red Star Erguotou or Laobaigan?”
Xiamu had a cigar in his mouth. When he said this, the aura of a socialite burst out.
The players who entered looked at him in confusion.
His head was buzzing!
