Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

In the days since leaving Blackwater City.

Lin Gui was like a postman who had gotten back on track.

The machines, in a regular fashion, shuttled between one desolate city-state after another.

Piloting a flying boat, we soared across the wilderness and passed through the mist.

Arrive, hang the letter, wait, retrieve the letter, leave.

Then, fly to the next gray ruin.

Back and forth.

A total of 7,760 letters were sent from Blackwater to various city-states.

Lin Gui has already delivered about half of them.

More than four thousand letters.

The goal of sending 10,000 letters is required to advance the courier's quest.

Only one hundred and thirty letters and one special commission remain.

If all goes well.

Lin Gui might be able to complete the most difficult goal of sending 10,000 letters in the next two stops.

This thought slightly invigorated his weary spirit.

And apart from that.

Each time you safely arrive at a planned node city-state.

And after achieving a signing rate of over 70% for that node.

The system will give him corresponding magic power rewards, as well as a certain number of basic spells.

Fortunately, things have gone relatively smoothly.

Lin Guidu achieved a signing rate far exceeding 70%.

This is likely because most of the recipients of letters in Blackwater City are ordinary people.

Their families are also mostly ordinary people.

So, faced with that desperate disaster, unable to escape, they chose to wait for death...

And "escaped a disaster".

As a result, most of the recipients are still around.

Although Lin Gui wasn't quite sure whether their "existence" as ghosts counted as "living."

But at least in terms of thinking, he is no different from ordinary people.

In fact, they're overly active.

In conclusion, Lin Gui successfully completed all the weekly commissions at every node along the way.

And they received a large reward from the system.

A wide variety of things, covering basic elements and even some niche areas.

Apart from a few Lin Gui who believe it might be useful in the future.

Most of them are very useless magic spells.

It can make your nails grow a little bit...

The Armor Regeneration Technique, strangely categorized as a metal-based magic.

It's not the "jia" in "jiazu" (armor), but the "jia" in "jiazhi" (fingernail).

To be honest, this was the first time Lin Gui had ever seen such rudimentary magic.

There are many similar techniques, such as hair growth techniques, lubrication techniques, and whistling techniques.

Of the newly added spells, only a few truly piqued Lin Gui's interest.

There are only two.

The first one is the Soul Possession Technique.

A basic soul magic spell with a simple effect: it grants the soul that touches it a brief, tangible sensation.

Lin Gui was familiar with almost all soul magic.

However, the Soul Possession Technique is indeed not within the known system.

It's useless.

It's almost useless for combat, defense, or exploration.

But here, inside the Wall of Sighs.

It can produce the same miraculous effect as the Clarity Technique.

At least, Lin Gui can now attack those spirit demons that can ignore physical and energy attacks.

It has very weak power.

At most, it can only enhance mid-level magic.

The other one, however, was a real surprise.

Of the more than 4 basic spells, only one gold one appeared.

Basic Spatial Magic - Spatial Marker.

Lin Gui understood its effect through the system's explanation:

He can mark a location.

Leave behind a unique magical mark.

Wherever he is afterward, whether or not he is in sight.

He can clearly perceive the location and distance of the marker points.

It still sounds like a useless thing.

But in the wild, this function is crucial.

When Lin Gui traversed the wilderness, his biggest headache was finding his location.

Maps are often inaccurate, landmarks may change, and the presence of demons can disrupt direction.

If there is a spatial marker.

He can leave markers at safe points, supply points, and temporary camps.

No matter how far you go, you can always find your way back.

He could also leave marks in the cities he passed through.

When going back, you won't always need to refer to the road signs or maps to find your way.

"May every thought of you travel through the fog and reach the land of destruction."

Lin Gui glanced at the newly added magic list.

I glanced again at my personal interface, at those ridiculously high-level beginner spells:

Basic Metal Magic: Armor Regeneration (MAX).

Basic Water Magic: Lubrication (MAX).

Basic Wind Magic: Whistle (MAX).

And now there's... the art of creating flowers.

His lips twitched silently.

Well, another strange magic has been added.

He subconsciously whistled softly.

The sound was crisp and short, and it was particularly clear in the quiet stone house.

Across from her, Eve was breathing on her fingers, which were red from the cold, to warm them.

Hearing the whistle, she paused and looked up.

A hint of surprise flashed in her purple eyes.

Whistling?

This doesn't seem like something a seemingly serious guy like Mr. Lin Gui would do.

And that expression seemed a bit sullen?

However, Eve reconsidered.

The other person's slightly stunned reaction just now...

She had been secretly observing Lin Gui for more than just a day or two.

This state often symbolizes something.

"Are we about to head to the next stop?"

Eve lowered her hand and asked gently.

Lin Gui nodded.

Whitestone City is relatively small.

All the letters that needed to be sent have been sent, and all the replies that needed to be received have been signed for.

In his mind, he also manually stopped the system's mail retrieval.

The weekly committee has been updated.

There's no reason to stay any longer.

"Well, it's time to go."

Lin Gui stood up and began to tidy up the scattered papers and pens.

"The sooner we get it done, the sooner we can leave this awful place."

The two quickly gathered their belongings and prepared to leave.

Just as Lin Gui opened the wooden door leading to the ruined street.

A glass bead suddenly rolled in through the crack under the door.

Lin Gui has not yet activated the Netherworld Eye.

A slightly excited "voice" rang directly in his mind:

"Messenger! Don't rush off yet!"

"Would you like to come with us...?"

"A scare tactic?"

"White Stone City, more living people have arrived."
