Chapter 133: Ally Status
Chapter 133: Ally Status
Bai Hualin?
That girl Xiao Bai?
The Ranger quest chain was said to be quite long; had she actually finished it all so quickly?
Mo Xiaobai raised an eyebrow. Just as he was about to send her a congratulatory message, he heard his chat communicator beep with a “di-di” sound.
He opened it to look, and it really was that girl Xiao Bai.
The call connected, and a girl’s bell-like laughter immediately rang in Mo Xiaobai’s ears.
“Hahahaha~”
“Great God, did you see the announcement? This time I successfully stole your headline~”
Stole my headline?
What did that mean?
“I wasn’t fighting you for the headline. Congratulations to you on being the first to successfully complete the Class Transfer.”
“Thank you, Great God! I’ve played this Plane game for so long, and every time I heard the announcement it was always ‘Daydreaming’ this and ‘Daydreaming’ that. Being able to snatch the Class Transfer headline from a headline regular like you, Great God, makes me very happy. Let me laugh a little longer~”
Want to laugh a little longer?
Fine!
You keep laughing, I’ll keep eating.
The corner of Mo Xiaobai’s mouth twitched slightly. Ignoring Xiao Bai, who was currently in a state of excitement, he held his bowl and continued to shovel the food in front of him into his mouth.
He was eating happily on his side, while on the other end, Xiao Bai, having made enough noise, finally heard some movement. “Great God, what are you doing? Why is the sound so weird?”
“Burp, I’m eating. Do you have other business?”
“Nope, just came to say hello to you, Great God. My Ranger quests are completely finished now, and this heroine is free~”
Listening to the excited voice on the other end of the call, Mo Xiaobai swallowed his food and spoke. “You’re talking about coming to Daming Village, right? Come on then. If you don’t know the way, you can go to the pharmacy where you used to work and let Fatty Cheng bring you here.”
“I was going to go back even without you saying so. It was only because Master and the Boss took me in back then that I was able to survive in Juancheng. Now that I’ve achieved some small success, this heroine certainly won’t dress finely just to walk in the dark.”
“Take it easy. Juancheng hasn’t revoked the warrant for your arrest; it’s just that no one bothers with you after the case was closed.”
“I know, I know. By the way, is Master doing well in Daming Village? Great God, have you been mistreating him? Has he gotten fat or thin?” After saying a bunch of words, the girl finally remembered to ask about the current situation of her mentor.
“How would I dare? Your Master is eating braised fish right now. You haven’t eaten the braised crucian carp your Master cooks, have you? The taste is amazing.”
“Ahhhhhh, I’m coming back right now! Master Zhang Chuchen has already given me my Master’s father-in-law’s Precious Horse. It can run a hundred kilometers in half a day; its speed can compare to a high-speed bus. Just wait, I’ll be there in a few days.”
Master Zhang Chuchen?
Zhang Chuchen?
The famous Lady with the Red Handkerchief. Isn’t her man Li Jing?
Mo Xiaobai, who hadn’t thought of this connection before, felt his mind jolt. He hurriedly asked, “You saw Li Jing?”
“I saw him. My Master’s father-in-law counts as a handsome ‘old cured meat’ type.”
Hearing the girl’s confirmation, Mo Xiaobai sucked in a breath of cold air. “Hiss~ Then it never occurred to you to invite your two inheritance masters to come along?”
After Mo Xiaobai finished speaking, the other end suddenly went silent.
After a while, Bai Hualin’s voice drifted over faintly. “Great God, you’re thinking too beautifully, aren’t you? Don’t think that just because I haven’t read much I don’t know who Li Jing is. I heard Great God brought Zhang He and Gao Lan from the Guandu Instance. Do the two of them combined compare to my Master’s father-in-law?”
Zhang He plus Gao Lan?
Although he really didn’t want to look down on his capable generals, a gap was a gap. If it existed, one had to admit it.
“Probably, there’s no comparison.”
Mo Xiaobai shook his head, realizing in his heart that he had been overthinking.
Recruit Li Jing at a time like this?
Putting aside whether he would come or not, the key was, even if he came, so what?
In a tiny Village Territory, people like Li Ji and Li Guang were already being overqualified. If Li Jing came to Daming Village too, what could he do?
Have him guard the gate?
Dispersing the unrealistic fantasies in his mind, Mo Xiaobai spoke. “It’s probably impossible to make the couple stay, but you should have a way to contact them, right?”
“Hmm. I definitely wouldn’t tell if others asked, but since you asked so sincerely, Great God, I will be merciful and tell you. If I fall into danger, I can contact Master Zhang Chuchen three times.”
Contact three times?
That was the Lady with the Red Handkerchief giving her disciple three life-saving talismans.
She really is highly regarded by the Three Heroes of the Wind and Dust!
Mo Xiaobai sighed in his heart. The girl on the other end continued, “Great God, haven’t you undergone your Class Transfer yet? If you haven’t decided on a Class Transfer goal, I suggest you consider Ranger too. Anyway, the Ranger class doesn’t affect your Lord status, and the potential of this class is really good. Do you know what my combat power value is now?”
“How high can it be? At most, it’s the 70 value of an ‘A-grade’ NPC aptitude, right?”
“Ha~ Great God sure knows a lot. Wait for me, see you at our Daming Village!”
…
Ending the call with the girl, Mo Xiaobai looked at Cheng Liya with a smile. “Old Cheng, your disciple is going to become famous this time.”
Hearing this, a faint smile brushed across Cheng Liya’s face. “From the moment she left Juancheng, my duty as her master was finished. Now her masters should be those three.”
“But regardless of what you say, you were the one who opened her path as a Ranger, and this path was also designed by you personally.” Mo Xiaobai wasn’t that easy to fool. He continued immediately:
“Although that girl didn’t mention you much just now, I could tell that rather than wanting to tell me the good news, she was using me to pass a message to you. You hold a very high position in her heart. She will very likely listen to what you say.”
“What does the Baron wish to say?” Cheng Liya put down his bowl and chopsticks, asking in confusion.
“Heh~ I have a request. Xiao Bai is definitely coming to Daming Village, but I was wondering if we could make her stay? My persuasion probably won’t be very effective, but if you step in, it should work.”
Since Bai Hualin had successfully completed her Class Transfer, and was the first Player to transfer to the Ranger class.
For such a character, Mo Xiaobai was already considering absorbing her as an Ally.
That’s right, not to have Bai Hualin work for him in Daming Village, but to place Xiao Bai at the height of an Ally.
Reborn and returned, Mo Xiaobai was very certain that the Xiao Bai at this moment was worthy of this potential and status.
“The Baron values her so highly? Why is that?”
“There are many reasons. The most direct factor is that the Zhanlu Sword is in her hands. If nothing unexpected happens, she will be an important figure in the rise of the Mohist School.”
Mo Xiaobai knew that to convince someone, he couldn’t lie. He was very straightforward and open, stating clearly that he valued Bai Hualin’s current status advantage.
“The Mohist School?”
Hearing this term, a deep nostalgia flashed in Cheng Liya’s eyes.
Seeing his expression moved, Mo Xiaobai added fuel to the fire. “Old Cheng, your mission difficulty is so high; it doesn’t look like recruiting ordinary Rangers. There are no few knights like you in the entire Great Han. You set such high standards to choose a disciple; wasn’t it to find a successor? Now the person has been found, but having just the person is useless. She is just a girl; if the burden on her shoulders is too heavy, she will collapse.”
“Persuade her to stay. I will help her, and she can also help me. Isn’t that good?”
Good? Or not good?
Cheng Liya frowned deeply. He thought for a full hundred seconds before staring at Mo Xiaobai. “The Mohist School and the Baron’s path are different.”
“How are they different? Does this Lord lack benevolence for his Territory Citizens? Or does this Lord lack the ability to be benevolent to them? Furthermore, although the Mohist School has the concept of ‘Non-Offensive’, ‘Non-Offensive’ does not mean getting beaten up, nor does it mean letting you descendants of the Mohist School linger on like this in a corner.”
After Mo Xiaobai finished speaking, he walked out of his seat and bowed deeply. “Huaxia needs the return of the Mohist School, and even more so needs its prosperity. Daming Village is willing to do its utmost to help.”
