Legend: One corpse-picking message per day

Chapter 126 Mom's Mysterious Identity

After the upgrade was completed, He Sheng's luck seemed to have improved a bit.

When he went to the Woma Temple to stake out the area, he unexpectedly encountered the Hell Elite Dark Warrior first.

He took them down with one Fire Wall and two Lightning Bolts!

Then I used three Elite Dark Warrior cards to light up this illustration.

It adds the same attributes as the Elite Jumping Bee.

Yu Jie was envious when she heard the news...

"Such good luck? It's a pity we're in the Centipede Cave, otherwise we probably could have made it."

"Haha! Just give me a memory set and I'll teleport you all to you," He Sheng laughed.

"Dream on, those things are extremely rare, they're not something you'd use to steal monsters here," Yu Jie said with a hint of regret.

"Uh, you guys are wasting a lot of time here too," He Sheng said, sounding a bit annoyed.

"Each map can only be used for a little over half a year, but what is that compared to a lifespan of hundreds or even thousands of years?"

He Sheng was speechless upon hearing this...

Indeed, he does seem to be getting a bit into a game.

But in reality, the people on this planet don't see this world as a game, but as a world of cultivation.

He'll reach level 35 soon, which will add another hundred years to his lifespan, so this little bit of time really doesn't matter.

The night passed quickly...

When He Sheng woke up during the day, he was surprised to find that his parents were at home.

Mother Ye Jing smiled and said, "The shop will be renovated in a few days. We found someone to come and help open the shop, mainly to liaise with you in the Legend of Mir world."

She is the daughter of one of my relatives, and she doesn't like fighting and killing.

He's been mining in the Legend of Mir world and reselling items.

She is 21 years old this year, and seems to be around level 30 now, a Taoist priest.

She'll be here soon, you can meet her.

"Oh, okay." He Sheng nodded as he ate.

More than half an hour later, He Sheng met his mother's relative's daughter.

She is tall and beautiful.

"Hello, my name is Ye Nana."

Ye Nana waved to He Sheng in a graceful manner, but her eyes were a little unfocused and her attention was not on He Sheng. It was clear that she looked down on He Sheng and was spacing out.

"Hello."

He Sheng smiled slightly, not taking it to heart.

This girl definitely has the right to be carefree.

Her level is already 45!

It's perfectly normal to look down on He Sheng, this little brother.

However, there's absolutely no way this woman wouldn't enjoy fighting and killing.

Otherwise, having only been in the industry for a year, the level would definitely not be that high.

You should know that even in the early days of the legendary game world, if you wanted to reach level 45, it would take two or three years without several people taking turns leveling up online.

In the current legendary world, an ordinary girl simply cannot reach level 45 in a year.

Don't be fooled by the abundance of monsters in difficult and hellish maps; the real problem is whether you have the money to enter.

As the map level increases, the amount of gold coins required to enter will also increase.

For an average girl without any special encounters, the money she earns from mining is enough to cover the cost of potions and maybe a little bit of equipment.

But... Mom said she resells some things...

Could it be that you've started a business?

But how can one possibly reach level 45 in a year while running a business and leveling up?
But why did she still accept her mother's job application?
He Sheng always felt that something was off about this matter...

After that, the two didn't say much.

Ye Nana seemed to be intentionally avoiding discussing things from the Legend of Mir with He Sheng in front of Ye Jing and the others.

Whenever He Sheng mentioned things from the Legend of Mir, she would deliberately change the subject.

Ye Nana's mother, Ye Jing, chatted with her enthusiastically, seemingly trying to ingratiate herself.

He Sheng frowned slightly, but didn't say anything more.

Only when his parents excused themselves to go out to buy groceries, deliberately giving them some space, did He Sheng finally speak with a smile:

"Sister Na, since they're not here, I'll just say it straight."

You don't seem very willing to take this job, so why are you doing it?

"Do you think I wanted to come?" Ye Nana sneered.

"What do you mean?" He Sheng frowned. He felt like there was something he didn't know, so he was at a disadvantage. Ye Nana shrugged. "My elders arranged for me to come and help out."

"That's because your mother is of a higher generation, your great-uncle."

"What? You're calling me Uncle-Grandpa?"

Upon hearing this, He Sheng felt a sudden pain in his testicles.

Is he of such a high generation?

"Well, according to seniority, I should call your mother Great-Grandma... Well, I'm a little confused about the specifics."

Anyway, I just call her my great-aunt, but she seems to be of a higher generation.

So, it doesn't seem like there's anything wrong with me calling you my little uncle, but something still feels off.

"Ugh, my brain cells are about to be burned out."

He Sheng was speechless...

After a moment's thought, he simply asked:
"What family are you from? The Ye family? If they could arrange for you to come here, their influence must be considerable."

"It's alright, it's not worse than Beixiong City anyway," Ye Nana said proudly.

"So, it seems my mom has some kind of status."

"But why are you here now? I don't believe my mom has that much influence to arrange for you to come. After all, she's just an ordinary person."

As he spoke, He Sheng took out a cigarette and tossed one to the other person.

She caught it and put it on the table, saying, "I don't smoke this stuff."

He Sheng raised the cigarette in his hand again.

"Do as you please." Ye Nana leaned back.

With a click, He Sheng lit the candle and didn't say anything more, just quietly watching Ye Nana.

After a moment of silence, Ye Nana explained, "Because she never called the family on her own initiative; she only did it yesterday."

"Then why don't you come and find her?"

Ye Nana fell silent again. "She doesn't want me to look for anyone, saying she wants to live a quiet life alone. To be honest, today is also the first day I've met her."

Also, this is Beixiong City.

Upon hearing this, Mr. He was speechless once again...

Is Beixiong City really that awesome?

It seems like the impressive people he knows all have a "don't want to mess with me" vibe when they mention Zhou Xiangbo from Beixiong City.

"You mean you're worried Zhou Xiangbo will object? You need his permission to come here?"

He Sheng tentatively asked, then stared intently into Ye Nana's eyes, trying to discern something.

Sure enough, Ye Nana stiffened noticeably when she heard Zhou Xiangbo's name.

But she immediately smiled proudly:
"What a joke! How could my Ye family be afraid of him? I'm here now, without his permission."

"So what exactly do you mean?"

"It doesn't mean anything, it's just that there are some things I'm not very clear about either."

If you want to know, just ask your great-aunt.

By the way, my great-aunt said you're planning to open a physical equipment store? Do you have that much equipment to sell?

Ye Nana seemed unwilling to discuss He Sheng's mother further, so she changed the subject.

When this issue was brought up, her eyes showed obvious disdain.

He looked at He Sheng with a suspicious expression.

A newbie who's been in the world of Legend for over half a year is trying to open an equipment shop like everyone else...

You probably can't even get your own equipment ready...

Are you suggesting I sell junk items that only add one or two attribute points?
If someone you know sees it...

At this point in her thoughts, Ye Nana felt a strong urge to die...

"There really isn't anything to sell. I was just making up an excuse because I didn't want my parents to go out to work."

As he spoke, He Sheng tossed out more than a dozen pieces of light pillar equipment and more than a dozen skill books, placing them on the table.

These are some items that he hadn't yet stored in the warehouse after clearing out the Corpse King's Palace in the last wave.

Of course, he only took out a small portion.

But it was enough to make Ye Nana look at him in a new light.

"Not bad, excellent, superb, and even has perfect equipment, skill books... Dog Book, Crescent Moon, Magic Shield are all included..."

She finally breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, it wasn't about selling trash...
