Dark Eldar

Benjamin VI was still young. He had many questions he wanted to understand, and the more eager he was to figure them out, the more confused he became. Upon entering the city, the main city of Leiyin was bustling with activity, its streets wide, and its buildings all constructed from ancient "raw stone." (Leiyin City, a high-level main city, defense level 500)

Human heroes, early inhabitants, and beauties abound. Even the occasional banshee pales in comparison. The hot-blooded young Benjamin, oblivious to the "street scene," was still somewhat lost in thought. Was he really going back to teach the dwarven guards a lesson? Not entirely. Perhaps he was more interested in understanding Loki? Or maybe not. After all, everyone's thoughts are "private," and without the special magic of Elder Schopenhauer from the "other world" ("Insightful Eye," a light magic; level 110 only), it's difficult to discern them.

"What's wrong, Ben? Let's change into some clean clothes first. Look! This hotel, I always come here. It's very comfortable inside. The service is excellent." Loki asked tentatively, trying to distract Benjamin.

"It's nothing, brother, I just got a little stranded! I was thinking about the other world for a moment (checking group chat messages). Wow! Thunder Sound City truly lives up to its reputation as a major human city; I'll never see orcs or dwarves again!" Benjamin finally smiled. He followed Loki into Thunder Sound Inn No. 5. (Thunder Sound City has a total of 18 inns. The competition is fierce!)

"Jack (Loki's alias)! Long time no see! You even brought friends this time. Hotel No. 5 welcomes you as always! And of course, new friends too! Haha! Hello there! Young man, my name is Del, you can call me Fat Del if you like!" The portly owner of Hotel No. 5 greeted Loki and Benjamin. He was clearly a smooth-talking businessman.

"Well, thank you, Mr. Del! Two superior rooms, lunch on your own," Loki said briefly. He didn't have time for small talk, after all, his and Benjamin's attire was rather "indecent" at the moment.

An hour later, Loki and Benjamin met in the hotel lobby after washing up, as agreed.

"Wow! What a beautiful jacket (fashion), it must be worth a lot of money!" The owner of Inn No. 5, upon seeing Loki, felt he was still the same as before, a "high-class employer." (High-class employer, not a title, but a descriptive term implying wealth; usually used for squad leaders, gold-digging gang leaders, or "consumer bosses," etc.—a very vulgar way of referring to "early people.")

A short while later, Benjamin also packed his things and came downstairs. Following Loki's instructions, he didn't wear the apprentice's attire from the other world, much less business clothes. Instead, he wore a casual suit (fashion). The crisp casual suit looked "very appropriate" on the young otherworldly mage, Benjamin!

Inside the lobby, almost all the girls, female warriors, female assassins, healers, and others cast "friendly" glances at Loki and Edward, the two handsome new heroes. (Note: Inviting friends can be ignored!)

Loki put on his leather hat, intentionally toning down his "sharpness." He didn't like being too "flashy."

Loki also gave Edward another hat he had prepared. He knew Edward was also "lacking" this "item." (Detailed description: Jacket, suit, top hat, leather hat, leather shoes, jeans, all belong to "Fashion," level 0, blue fashion, rare, no attributes. Crafted by mid-to-high-level tailors, occasionally drops; Loki's "set" is worth about 2000G, Benjamin VI's casual suit is slightly cheaper, around 500G! Binds when equipped.)

"Thanks, Jack!" Benjamin said, changing his address. In public, he followed Loki's advice and simply called him by his pseudonym "Jack." Benjamin said he would still use the single word "Ben," a pseudonym. After all, he wasn't very famous. As for the Benjamin family, that was a thing of the past... Who would remember what happened 2000 years ago? (The Benjamin family hasn't been very famous since their physical abilities were significantly weakened. After all, they are naturally "agile," and their "roaming mage" output is only average, with an advantage in 1v1. In this alternate world, the Benjamin family is currently ranked in the 50s; they used to be in the top 30!)

Leaving Inn No. 5, the main street remained bustling. People of various classes—mages, warriors, and trainers—came and disappeared, along with a few warlocks trying it out. Some had mounts, some didn't. There were too many pedestrians and carriages (carts were essentially "freight vehicles," with no level distinctions) on the road, and some high-level heroes, fearing traffic congestion, simply didn't summon their large mounts. Conversely, those riding mounts were mostly low-level or barely mid-level "heroes."

Benjamin ran into a "familiar face"! He deliberately lowered his head. Sangle! Frost Mage (Level 31), Novice! A former "Otherworldly Apprentice" who failed the intermediate magic advancement exam due to insufficient "focus." He seemed to recognize his former classmate—Benjamin?

"Benjamin VI?" Sornens shouted across the stone steps! He desperately hoped it was Benjamin. Because he knew that Benjamin VI had successfully advanced to the rank of "High Mage"! (Synchronized with the Hero Ranking)

Benjamin glanced at Loki, who had stopped walking.

"Ben! Go see him, don't worry! Thunder City is relatively safe, just... don't drink too much rum. How about we meet at Hotel No. 5 tomorrow morning?" Loki asked.

Benjamin was overjoyed; he had been wanting to contact Thornence. It had been a long time since they had last met...

Loki walked away quickly and soon disappeared into the crowd.

"Is that you, Benjamin? You think I don't recognize you??" At this moment, Thornence had already run over. He didn't notice Loki and thought the person who had just spoken to him was some First Nations "uncle" who had asked for directions!
