My Players' Second Playthrough
#35 - Heart of Brilliant Flame
After formulating a preliminary cooperation plan with everyone and agreeing to discuss it in detail in a formal setting tomorrow.
Li Li sent away these uninvited guests and began to deal with his own affairs.
The girl who slid and knelt in front of him after entering the door was a "special unit" who believed in him, just like El.
As long as it was an order from Li Li, she could not refuse it anyway.
However, the five knights who followed her and reached the golden rank were not as easy to bully as their own saint.
Although they also believed in the God of Creation, they were not fanatical enough. When facing Li Li, they could still maintain normal thinking ability and would not blindly execute his orders.
It was precisely because they had normal brains that even if they would not show it on the surface, they would still use the psychology of scrutiny in their subconscious to judge whether Li Li was the God of Creation in their doctrine.
After all, the Salvation Army, which was established based on the belief in the God of Creation, was a fanatical religious organization. Its attitude and definition of "God" were completely different from the Thirteen Cities Alliance, which regarded God as a "supernatural individual".
The spokespersons of the major forces in the alliance naturally accepted the objective fact that Li Li was a "god".
The knights of the Savior Army seemed restrained and at a loss when facing the peaceful and somewhat mediocre Li Li.
Li Li took them into a small room behind the warehouse, asked Al to block the players who wanted to follow in outside the door, and had a preliminary exchange with these people.
The blond girl in the lead had a flushed face and was so excited that she couldn't speak at all.
In desperation, the oldest middle-aged knight among the knights had to explain the situation of their village.
They are descendants of a Savior Army.
As one of the guides of the Savior Army, [Desperate Saint Eperia] was corrupted and could only seal herself in the crystal [Heart of Brilliant Flame] to reduce the speed of corruption and erosion with continuous burning.
Their ancestors voluntarily stayed with the saint, guarding Eperia sealed in the crystal for generations.
The natives of this world are not like players who can get the map of the whole world with a click of the mouse.
For them, the wilderness represents the abyss of tranquility and death.
Any inconspicuous dense forest may be a hunting ground for legendary monsters, and a small snake the size of a palm may have the power to poison a golden monster.
Every step they take outward is a huge risk, but it is difficult to get any visible rewards.
Most people are unwilling to explore outside after finding a stable settlement. These knights who have been guarding Eperia for generations have lived in the Crystal Sealed Village for hundreds of years.
After talking about his own experience, the middle-aged knight in the lead knelt on one knee and, as expected, asked Li Li to save Eperia.
Li Li did not respond immediately.
He first used the map he got from the player to confirm the distance from here to the Crystal Sealed Village, and immediately respected the "broken leg".
The straight-line distance is nearly 600 kilometers, and along the way, you have to pass through dense forests, lakes, cliffs and other difficult terrains, and avoid various monster threats...
Although the player's body does not need to eat, with the performance of a level 1 character, it only took three days to reach the outside of the Crystal Sealed Village. It can be said that this guy's strength should not be underestimated.
He decided to reward this guy with a large amount of experience points on the pretext of completing a "hidden mission" and first bring this rare talent to level 30.
After thinking for a while, Li Li groaned and said to Eperiya:
"I already know your situation. As long as Eperiya has not been completely corrupted, I am sure to save her from corruption, but the premise is that you can transport her to me in Iron Wall City."
"So you have two things to do next. One is to confirm how long Eperiya can last after leaving [Heart of Brilliant Flame], and the other is to confirm how long it takes to get here from the Crystal Sealed Village with Eperiya."
"Supreme Lord, your light shines on me, and your wisdom guides me." Eperiya knelt on the ground and buried her head in Li Li's toes, saying devoutly: "Your most humble servant swears here that your will will be implemented, and I will realize your oracle with my life."
Li Li: "..."
If it were Li Li in the human period, he would definitely be secretly happy to have such a beautiful blonde girl in knight armor kneeling at his feet.
But now He only feels troublesome.
Li Li found that he seemed to have lost some of his human desires.
Take Elle for example. After living with this beautiful girl who obeyed his every word for so long, Li Li thought he had no reason not to do something to Elle.
He was not a saint.
But he really did nothing.
For so many days, when he was hungry, he boiled a pot of water to eat instant noodles. When he was tired, he slept on the folding bed in the small room behind the warehouse. He had earned hundreds of thousands of Alliance coins by helping players upgrade their skills, but he did not use them to improve his life. Instead, he used them all to buy building materials for the camp.
Li Li thought that he was not a self-disciplined person before he crossed over. He simply lost his lust and material desires.

"I hope that when you communicate with me in the future, you don't have to be servile, and you should use fewer compliments, and be as... efficient as possible."
Li Li helped the female knight who was crawling on the ground, then closed his eyes and explored the location of the players who were still online.
It is now late at night on Blue Star. The only players who are still "online" are the four members of "Grade 8 Hurricane" who are blocked by soldiers at the city gate and are having a headache about how to enter the city.
"You and El go to the city gate checkpoint. There are four aliens there. Find one of them to be your guide back to the village... Forget it, let's set off tomorrow night. I will arrange other guides for you then."
Li Li opened his eyes and gave his authority to [Saint of Unsealing·Eperia], so that this female knight of only gold rank also has the ability to upgrade and advance players.
He has a strong interest in [Saint of Despair·Eperia] of the demigod rank and the crystal [Heart of Brilliant Flame] that can isolate corruption.
Li Li plans to let the players determine the fastest route, and then let El carry the crystal that seals Eperia and bring back these two things he cares about.
But before that, he still has to keep El by his side until tomorrow's meeting is over.
After comforting the knights for a few more words, Li Li ended the communication tonight.
Although his warehouse was empty, he didn't want the knights who had traveled a long distance to sleep on the stone brick floor covered with express boxes.
Li Li found two tree people rooted at the door of the warehouse, asked Godreev for help, and arranged accommodation for everyone.
There was still some time before dawn, Li Li took out the mirror and posted an official event on his forum.
