Chapter 1585 - 1581: Treating Everyone

"Come on, I'll treat you. You can order as much as you want."

"You're making me sound so stingy..."

"Ah, but if you eat too much now, you'll feel uncomfortable after logging out."

Qiuya groaned as she looked at the tempting dessert menu.

Incredible as it may seem, eating in Fairy Fantasy actually makes you feel full, and this feeling lasts for a while after you return to the real world. Though for Qiuya, she doesn't have to worry about calorie intake.

Being able to indulge in your favorite desserts is one of the major attractions of a VRMMO, but if you have no appetite after returning to the real world, you'll get scolded by your mom.

In fact, there are often reports of players who use this system to lose weight ending up malnourished, or of an obese player engrossed in the game forgetting to eat and dying.

In the end, Qiuya ordered the fruit Barbara Mousse, Ye Qiu ordered a fruit pie, and surprisingly, even Dong ordered some cheese crackers with a bottle of vanilla wine. The NPC waiter quickly brought their assorted orders to the table.

"So... thanks again for saving me!"

The two lightly clinked glasses filled with an incredulous green liquid, and Qiuya gulped the chilled drink down her thirsty throat. She downed it just like Ye Qiu, felt a bit embarrassed, and laughed, saying:

"Oh, it was just a coincidence... but honestly, those guys are really aggressive. Is there always a group going PK here?"

Turns out the relationship between Fire Elves and Wind Elves wasn't that great. Because their territories are adjacent, they often run into each other while practicing in the neutral zone, and their powers have long been in competition. But it wasn't until recently that such PK groups emerged.

"By the way, I'd like you to tell me about the World Tree."

"I understand what you're doing. But why do you want to know?"

"Because I want to go to the World Tree."

Qiuya was somewhat surprised to see the expression on Qiuya's face. But he didn't seem to be joking. His dark pupils looked somewhat serious.

"...Ye Qiu thought, maybe all the players think so. I'd say, it's the ultimate goal in the Fantasy Fairy game."

"So?"

"You know there's a limit, right? You can only fly for about ten minutes at a time. But first to reach the World Tree and Sky City, racing against the 'Immortal King Oberon', can transform into 'Light' spirit's higher race. As a result, the flying restrictions will disappear, and you can freely fly in the air…"

"So..."

Ye Qiu took a bite of his pie and nodded.

"That's truly fascinating. Do you know how to get to the World Tree?"

"Inside the World Tree, its root is a place of a great dome."

The entrance above the dome, from there you can climb the World Tree, but the NPC Guardian Knight troop guarding the dome is too powerful. So far, every race has fought several times, but all have been completely destroyed.

The Fire Elves are the strongest, and they are desperately searching for money just to buy equipment and items, then preparing to conquer the World Tree."

"Are those Guardian Knights really that strong?"

"It's been a year since the Fairy Fantasy came true. Do you think there's anything you couldn't achieve in a year?"

"That's..."

"Actually, around last autumn, a large Fairy Fantasy intelligence site gathered signatures and asked RECTPROGRESS to improve the game's balance."

"Wow, and then...?"

"Of course, we only got a formulaic answer."

For example, 'The game is running in correct balance.'

"...Perhaps you missed an important quest, or you missed the World Tree, if you're a single race?"

Qiuya had to stop with the Barbara Mousse in front of her mouth, then looked at Ye Qiu's face.

"Hmm, you have great insight. Now everyone is trying to figure out if something important has been overlooked. As for the conditions for forming a united army...

"Is it impossible?"

"Because it contradicts the quest itself. 'The quest for the race that can get the reward first', how can it collaborate with other races...

"So... it's almost impossible to climb the World Tree..."

"Of course, there are also many other quests, or ways to enjoy the game, like improving production skills..."

"Too late!"

Ye Qiu suddenly lowered his voice. Qiuya was startled, looked up to see Ye Qiu's frowning and gritting expression.

"I…"

It turned out that the Little Fairy holding cheese crackers began to munch from the side, and after putting down the crackers, flew up to sit on Ye Qiu's shoulder. Her little hand stroked his cheek as if to soothe a willow man. Before long, Ye Qiu's tense body relaxed.

"Sorry for scaring you..."

Ye Qiu said in a low voice.

"But I have to get to the World Tree no matter what."

To Qiuya, that flower-like gaze was like a faint black pupil's stare, suddenly making her heart beat faster. She took a big sip of wine to calm herself, then struggled to say:

"Why, on the World Tree...?"

"I'm looking for someone..."

"What's that, what's that?"

"...There's no way to end all this in just a few words..."

Ye Qiu looked at the smile fading from Qiuya's face. But in his eyes, there was a look of determination. It was an expression that Qiuya had seen somewhere before.

"Thank you, Qiuya... for telling me so much. It's really helped me a lot.

Qiuya was about to stand up, and unconsciously reached out and grabbed his arm.

"Wait, wait. You're going... to the World Tree?"

"Yeah. I have to verify it personally."

"That's reckless... There are so many powerful monsters on the way, even if you're strong..."

Qiuya confronted God stoically, and such a word already came out of her mouth.

"Otherwise, I'll make you—"

"Huh..."

Ye Qiu widened his eyes.

"But I only just realized, I'm sorry for this..."

"It's okay, I've already decided!

Qiuya then tried to hide her blushing face without turning her head. Because they had wings, they couldn't teleport. Going to the central city of Allen, where the World Tree is located, was like a short trip to the real world.

Qiuya still couldn't believe she volunteered to help this boy she'd known for less than a few hours.

But—she simply couldn't leave him.

"Are you logging in tomorrow too?"

"Ah, ah."

"I'll meet you here tomorrow at 3 PM. I have to log off first.

After saying that while standing, Qiuya waved her right hand out the window. Since she could exit the Wind Elf territory anytime and anywhere, she could simply press a button.

"Oh, wait!"
