Chapter 1584 - 1580: Capital of the Wind Elves

"What's... what's happening? No, don't ahhhhh—"

Watching the Shadow Elf scream as it crashed into the tower wall, Qiu Ya could only pray for him silently.

A few seconds later, "Bang!" A heart-shaking loud noise suddenly resounded.

"Wuwu, it's too much. I'm... I'm afraid of flying..."

At the jade green tower's base, Ye Qiu sat discontentedly on a flower bed full of colorful blossoms.

"I can't see anything~"

The fairy on his shoulder also seemed bewildered. Qiu Ya put her hands on her hips, trying not to laugh.

"You're too complacent~ But I didn't expect you to survive; I thought you were a goner too."

"Wow, that's too much!"

Even after crashing into the wall at maximum speed, they still had more than half their health points left. Whether fortunate or tough, he was certainly a mysterious novice.

"Alright, let me help you answer."

Qiu Ya raised her right hand toward Ye Qiu, then recited the spell. Sparkling blue drops appeared in her palm, then landed on Ye Qiu's head.

"Oh, that's amazing. Is this magic?"

Ye Qiu looked around with interest.

"Only Water Elves can use Advanced Healing Spells. It's a very useful magic. You should jot it down."

"Then, is there any magic that Shadow Elves excel at or don't excel at?"

"Treasure hunting and magic. Since neither suits combat, Shadow Elves are the least popular race."

"Wow, you really should do some research."

Ye Qiu shrugged and stood up. After a long stretch, he looked around.

"Oh, is this the city of the Wind Elves? It's so beautiful."

"Beautiful!

Qiu Ya glanced again at the small town she once lived in.

Luban City's nickname is Jade City. The entire town is composed of tall, thin towers connected by intricately designed aerial walkways. The town's colors vary, but all shimmer with an emerald hue. The way these buildings look in the night sky can only be described as a fantasy world. Especially the Wind Pavilion behind the Wind Tower; its grandeur rivals any structure in the Alps.

As the two people and the little fairy silently watched the people traversing Bright Street, someone suddenly approached from their right and exclaimed:

"Clear and crisp air! You're really quite safe and reliable!"

He turned his head to see a young man with yellow-green hair desperately making his way toward him.

"Ah, Regan."

Regan stopped in front of Qiu Ya, his eyes still sparkling:

"So fierce, escaping in such a crowd, truly worthy of Qiu Ya...!"

Apparently finding the "black man" beside Qiu Ya, I saw his mouth open large, before pausing momentarily at the corner.

"This... isn't that a Shadow Elf? Why is he here...?"

Regan flew backward, reaching for the dagger at his waist. But Qiu Ya quickly intervened.

"Oh, it's fine, Regan. He's the one who saved me."

"Oh..."

Qiu Ya pointed to the mute Leilei and said to Ye Qiu:

"This guy's name is Leilei. He's my friend and was killed by the Fire Elf before I met you."

"Sorry for not being able to save you in time."

"Ah, hello hello."

Leilei shook Ye Qiu's extended right hand and nodded...

"It's not the time for greetings now!"

He flew off again.

"Qiu Ya, is this guy really okay? It feels like he's not a spy?"

Initially, Regan had his doubts. But he naturally wasn't suited for spy work.

"Oh, that's too much!"

Both Qiu Ya and Dong laughed, and Regan looked on with doubt for a moment before clearing his throat to say:

"Qiu Ya, Sigrut and others have been occupying a good spot at the Narcissus Pavilion, saying they're distributing treasure there."

"Oh, yes. Hmm..."

After being killed by the enemy, the system would take away 30% of the character's items and money randomly. But if it's a team, they can enjoy insurance fields, and treasures placed in this field will automatically transfer to a partner upon their death.

Qiu Ya had already obtained more valuable treasures in today's hunt to enter the insurance bar, finally making her the sole bearer of today's entire harvest.

The Fire Elves must have learned this, constantly harassing her until Ye Qiu helped bring all the treasures back to Luban City.

Although in such circumstances, the convention would be to take the previous deaths and return transferred partner property to familiar shops for distribution, Qiu Ya hesitated a moment and said to Leilei:

"I'll pass today. Anyway, there's nothing suitable for my skill equipment. I gave it to you; you four can share it."

"Well... Qiu Ya, aren't you coming over?"

"Hmm, Ye Qiu said to that group of people, you should invite him for a drink to express gratitude."

"..."

Leilei eyed them sharply with a different alert.

"Hey, don't you think?"

Qiu Ya kicked Regan's toe with her boot and then summoned the trade window to transfer all the treasures to him.

"Next time, once the hunting time is set, I'll send an email to Ye Qiu."

"Ah, Qiu Ya!"

For some reason, Qiu Ya suddenly felt a bit embarrassed for herself. After ending the conversation with Leilei, she rolled up Ye Qiu's sleeve and left.

"Was the boy earlier Qiu Ya's boyfriend?"

"A lover?

"What?"

Upon hearing Dong question from shoulder to face, Qiu Ya accidentally knocked against the stone floor, unfurled her wings, and stood back up.

"No, no! Just a teammate."

"But your relationship seems close."

"Because you know Ye in the real world, he's Qiu Ya's classmate. But that's all."

"Hmm... Playing VRMMO with classmates is fun."

Qiu Ya listened to his words, turned to look at him, and said:

"Hmm—there are good things and bad things—like thinking about things you haven't done yet..."

"Hahaha, I see."

They continued to walk and talk. Many passing Wind Demon players showed alarming expressions when they saw Ye Qiu's dark hair. However, upon seeing Qiu Ya beside him, although still somewhat skeptical, they left without saying anything.

Although Qiu Ya didn't actively participate in various activities, she had at least won several times at regularly held martial arts tournaments in Luban City, so she was quite familiar to others.

Soon, a small bar and inn appeared in front of them. Since it offered a variety of desserts, Qiu Ya often visited this little shop called "Linglan Hall."

They opened the revolving match door and looked into the shop. There were no other team members inside. In the real world, it was just late in the afternoon, and adventures required some time to conclude with a drink.

Qiu Ya and Ye Qiu sat down at a window seat in the depths of the store.
