T0 Gaming Guild Saves the World.

Chapter 601. 600. A Two-Way Journey
Two and a half years after its launch, the fragmented boundaries between the virtual and real worlds have reunited.

Of the seven, the fourth member, who had the strongest sense of class, was surprisingly reluctant to leave Kekeli City.

Lord Brendan was a rare, normal nobleman in Anna, whose greatest vice was having dancers dressed scantily and dancing.

Daily territorial affairs are handled swiftly, with authority delegated.

Managing the vast southern region under Brendan made routine performance reviews a breeze.

It was nothing more than accompanying Brendan to watch the dancers sing and dance, submitting the reports we had prepared, and offering some suggestions for improvement to the South District.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Brendan would readily agree, allowing the Primarchs to do as they pleased.

Originally, the two were just partners in the Monster Tide incident, but after spending a lot of time together, they developed a mutual respect for each other.

Brendan had been managing the frontier for many years, and this was the first time he had encountered such a useful and all-around subordinate. The southern region was managed in an orderly manner, and relations with the various tribes on the border had greatly improved.

Hearing that the Four Primal Bodies wanted to leave early, he tried to persuade them to stay several times.

The final promises included administrative control over three of the six districts in Krikri, essentially granting him the authority to act as a lord, and allowing him to leverage Brendan's noble background to his advantage, which was tantamount to a guarantee of his status.

If it were a normal time travel, most of the Primarchs would probably not mind following Brendan for another two years, accumulating enough capital to leap into the Imperial Central Government.

The reaction was even stronger on the squid-covered side.

Despite knowing that the squid was looking for friends and would set off if it received any information, both Hammons and Dana were optimistic that it wouldn't be so quick.

The sudden separation brought Dana to tears.

Aside from her parents and Hammons, Squid was her closest person.

She had just visited Kuchiba when she encountered two teachers who were willing to take meticulous care of her. Suddenly, the people closest to her age were leaving, and she simply couldn't accept it.

He joked in bed, "When Dana first met me, she had a subtle, prickly feeling, as if I were a thief who had taken her things."

Cuttlefish refused to joke, stating sternly, "Girls at this age often have difficulty distinguishing between longing and affection. Time will solve everything, so stop laughing at her."

"Sigh, just like a teacher." She shrugged, "I like that about you, it's funny~~~"

Standing amidst the towering buildings of the Jailer's Manor, the Four Primal Bodies looked around.

"Where are the Tea Master and the jailer?"

Jiang Heyi said casually, "I went to replenish my energy."

"What kind of energy should we replenish?"

"He's calling the jailer 'Brother Jailer,' and this is the first day you've met him?"

"..."

"..."

"Sigh." Everyone present let out a long, heavy sigh of helplessness.

Before long, the prison guard, looking refreshed and invigorated, licked his lips, put his hands behind his back, and swaggered out of the castle with an air of nonchalance.

"White chocolate, delicious~~~"

Fries said irritably, "We shouldn't have let the Tea God change the model. Now the jailer is getting a new flavor."

"Can't I add some flavor to the food if I don't change the model?"

"..."

"..."

"Orange tea!"

French Fries pointed forcefully at the jailer.

Orange Tea understood, blushed and turned her face away: "He has earned so much money for everyone, so let's be a little accommodating."

The prison guard proudly puffed out his chest.

"Let's get down to business, let's get down to business!"

Jiang Heyi sighed and quickly steered the conversation back on track.

After a massive, extravagant construction project, the jailer's savings still consisted of 1310 Lion King gold coins.

Orange Tea brought 23 jars of high-purity magical slime obtained from trading with the slimes.

The Primarchs obtained two boxes of potion materials equivalent to red-grade potions in the game from the elves by using their facial recognition and the income from the Archon.

Cuttlefish and blankets offer relatively few additional ingredients.

He was an honest man and never considered trying to gain anything from Hammons and Rotting Leaf. Instead, he used any material he had to teach Dana.

Before leaving, the two also gave the future little witch a lot of materials they had collected.

However, Hammons still managed to slip a Sutter Heartstone into his arms before he left.

I've acquired this rare item that suppresses mental magic.

"What are you all babbling about? I don't understand a word." Eleravia forcefully interrupted, circling everyone before impatiently ordering, "Everyone's here, so tell me the secret now!"

Everyone turned to look at Jiang Heyi.

Jiang Heyi picked up a withered leaf that had fallen onto the stone table.

"Winter is almost here again, Mint, it's almost time to drop out of school."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy.

Looking at the genuine joy on everyone's faces, Elaevi couldn't help but tilt her head back.

What's wrong with this group of people?
Although she didn't know who Mint was, when it came to dropping out of school, it must be a well-known institution in the empire.

Mint dropped out of school, and a group of people gloated. How could they be so mean!
Historically, Mint left the Star Speakers Academy in a fit of anger just as the autumn school year was nearing its end.

She regretted it after she left.

It wasn't that she regretted leaving the academy, but rather that the Star Speakers only officially distributed the winter allowance after the first snowfall.

The benefit of the Empire's lavish spending on elite education is that elites qualified to enter top universities not only have no worries about food and clothing, but also receive a substantial subsidy on daily holidays.

Each time he received Mint, he would only keep enough for himself to have a treat, and send the rest to Metasequoia through the Imperial messenger system.

As the winter of year 35 of the Kurien calendar officially began, it was the first time she had failed to send the money back to the orphanage. To this end, she lied, claiming that the academy was conducting winter fieldwork and she needed to purchase materials independently for additional potion-making training.

This excuse is exactly the same as when students were in school and asked their families for extra materials, or simply lied to earn more pocket money.

Mint was just a cover-up for the fact that he dropped out of school and didn't receive any subsidies.

In order to maintain this lie, Mint traveled all the way to Wind Pod, not too far from the southern border of the empire, where she started selling magic potion blind boxes.

"Looks like this will be our last leisurely winter in Anna." She put her hands behind her head and said, "After Mint Mom comes, things are going to get chaotic."

Elaevi frowned and subconsciously took two steps back.

We were just talking about Mint dropping out of school. Logically speaking, students who can continue their studies at the university are all between the ages of 13 and 20.

How can these people so naturally call each other "Mom"?
What kind of people is she associating with now?

The jailer glanced at Jiang Heyi.

He is still the only one who knows that French Fries made a declaration of "major sacrifices and concessions".

"Potato, over by the Great Snow Mountain, Kesha should arrive in spring. Aren't you going to do something? Are we going to completely replicate the game's storyline?"

The sense of oppression from fighting an 8th-tier sea monster is still too strong.

If there's a way to succeed, no one is willing to waste a whole cycle trying and failing.

"If all else fails, how about asking Arera Vera for help?" the bed suggested. "We've already given her the promise scroll; she should at least show some appreciation, right?"

Aleira snorted, "It's your fault for not making a wish when you gave it to me. It's invalid now unless you can come up with a new one."

This posture, which seemed to have no way to distinguish between reality and illusion, made French Fries cross his arms and chuckle awkwardly.

"Hakiron, what will you do if we really find the remaining 3 Promise Scrolls?"

Elaevi never understood the meaning of "Hakilong". The seven people on the boundary between reality and illusion had not only blurted it out, but also corrected themselves to call her by her full name more than once.

Her intuition told her it was a teasing term.

If someone else brings up the topic in a betting tone, Elaevi will accept it without hesitation.

But this group of people could accurately state the number of remaining promise scrolls.

Even she can't remember the numbers and locations!

When a group of people suddenly appeared and could describe in detail the colors of the underwear she and her friends wore every day 100 years ago, Elaine couldn't possibly associate it with perversion.

The same applies to the current promises.

Could it be that prophecy or magic has appeared in the world?

Jiang Heyi once again prevented the topic from going off on its own like it had in the chat group from her previous life.

"I already have a preliminary idea about Kesha: let her proceed according to the original plan and not interfere."

French Fries pressed on, "So what do we need to do now?"

Jiang Heyi stretched and looked at the magnificent building complex that the prison guard had obtained through his lewd scheme. Here, each person could stay in a different room every day for six months without repeating a single room.

The interior is extremely luxurious, as magnificent as a royal palace.

It's time to enjoy yourself.

As he spoke, he took French Fries' hand and pulled her into his arms.

"Let's go back to our previous cohabitation mode and take a break. The bed is right, we won't have time to be so leisurely in the future."

Seeing that everyone else was in pairs, Eleravia belatedly stared at the four original entities that had not left.

Where is your little lover?

The four primordial bodies pouted in grievance and helplessly pointed to the sky.

A moment of shame washed over Elena, but before she could apologize, the four Primarchs had already left.

Seeing the other person's somewhat dejected back, Elena's lips also twitched.

"Sigh, why did I say such a thing..."

The first snow fell in the 35th year of the Kurien calendar.

In a corner of Fragrant Breeze City, unnoticed by the boundary between the real and virtual worlds, a slender and petite figure pushed open the door to the art studio that had once helped the prison guard soar to new heights.

Because the prison guard was sentimental and kept a painting for him every six months, the studio owner, who had become a wealthy man, rushed forward when he saw the visitor wearing a witch's hat.

"guest……"

"I'm looking for Master Jailer. Do you have his contact information?"

"Uh...you mean, you're looking to commission an article?"

"I want to discuss a business deal with him."

Seeing the witch's confident demeanor, the boss was at a loss for what to do. After much deliberation, he smiled and explained.

"Master Jailer has reduced his commissions for writing half a year ago, and he has also temporarily left Xiangfeng to stay at the Jailer Manor in Blue Lake Wetland. We can't get in touch with him."

However, he was puzzled. Was the magician circle so closed off that they hadn't heard the news?
After hesitating for a moment, the witch turned and left.

Carrying a huge backpack and bathed in the falling snow, she muttered to herself as she walked.

"Looking for a nouveau riche to invest in..."

"As long as I have money, Renee... I'll never lose to you!"

The mint's murmurs echoed continuously in the wind and snow.

The original route, which turned towards the outskirts of Xiangfeng City, was therefore corrected.

She will travel south to the prosperous border city.

"The distance isn't too far... I'll earn some travel expenses and then try my luck at the jailer's manor."

"These nouveau riche should be easy to fool, right?"
