It took a month for the residents of Great Wilderness City to gradually move in, and it took half a year for it to beco sowhat lively,
but adapting to the new life in Great Wilderness City took over a year.
Many old farrs still struggled to adjust.
For instance, they had to obey traffic lights when crossing streets, avoid walking on non-pedestrian paths, and use public toilets for toilets, etc.
Though complex, the citizens, whether farrs or workers, quickly noticed that these restrictions made their lives more comfortable and orderly.
...
Xiaoguoren now found a job as a cashier at a supermarket, with working hours from 8 AM to 5 PM, including lunch.
And Old Ren, who was already her husband, successfully found a civil servant job thanks to his veteran status, serving as a "traffic policeman," and working in shifts.
Every day Xiaoguoren would buy discounted vegetables, fruits, and at from the supermarket after work, cook at ho, and wait for Old Ren to get off work.
If Old Ren returned first, he would cook and wait for her.
Their lives were incredibly fulfilling, satisfying, and joyous.
Xiaoguoren never, never imagined such a wonderful life, not only materially sufficient but also full of happiness and a sense of fulfillnt.
The best life she had known before was having a large group of servants, living a life of emptiness, boredom, and loneliness, just like those noble ladies.
Now, she cooked with Old Ren every day and occasionally bought snacks like bubble tea, cakes, and chips.
Fulfilling, happy, a sense of belonging.
Previously, Xiaoguoren felt emptiness in her life before encountering the priest, both materially and spiritually.
After eting the priest, she had a brief period of spiritual enrichnt, but soon fell numb again, like a walking corpse.
This kind of life now was sothing she dared not imagine, nor dream of.
Today, Xiaoguoren just got off work, bought two buttery cakes from Old George’s family, and prepared to go ho to watch with Old Ren on the latest tech product, the recording device, which supposedly had many shows.
However, as she approached the entrance of the community, a handso young nobleman blocked her path.
"Hello, beautiful cat-man lady, I wonder if you have so ti right now?" The young nobleman politely thumped his chest, showing respect.
Xiaoguoren’s face darkened.
As a beautiful cat-man, with age, her cat ears and tail beca a kind of attraction in many people’s eyes.
Back when she was an assassin, she killed quite a number of young nobles who lusted after her beauty.
Now, in Great Wilderness City, one couldn’t kill indiscriminately.
"Sorry, I have a husband."
After saying this, Xiaoguoren clearly noticed the young man’s expression becoming dumbfounded.
Unexpected, right? We cat-n have long lifespans; though I’m over forty, I look like I’m eighteen. Xiaoguoren felt a bit smug inwardly.
Though she couldn’t kill, unwarranted harassnt of other females or males would result in fines.
If it was sexual harassnt, it would be more serious, leading to detention by the City Hall police!
Whether you were a forr prestigious noble or a commoner, no one could break the law.
Xiaoguoren directly bypassed the youth and walked ahead.
She was no longer the cat-man who could only rely on the dagger; now she was a Great Wilderness City resident!
...
Lin Ke looked in astonishnt at the cat-man walking past with her head held high, feeling amused and helpless.
This cat-man is quite Puxin!
Thus, he spoke again: "Respected Miss Xiaoguoren, I am Lin Ke, Lin Ke Azen, and I ca here to talk to you. Are you available?"
Lin Ke Azen!
While it’s understandable if others on the Naseng Continent don’t recognize Lin Ke, as a person of the Gula Kingdom, Lin Ke should be very famous now.
Now it was Xiaoguoren’s turn to be stunned.
"Lord Lin Ke?!" Xiaoguoren first exclaid, then quickly thumped her chest, making a respectful gesture, "I just..."
"It’s okay, it seems Miss Xiaoguoren’s charm is too dazzling." Lin Ke waved his hand, "I ca this ti to talk to you about your hotown."
"My hotown?" Xiaoguoren’s eyes showed confusion.
The Abyss? Holy Life Alliance? Or...
"Yes, it’s the Houston Plane." Lin Ke smiled.
Houston, aning "Desolate Desert of Despair."
This was a dium-sized secondary plane, primarily consisting of deserts, with a few oases.
Just a few days ago, Lin Ke received a system task again.
Over the years he would occasionally receive tasks, mostly about professions and practitioners.
For instance, inventing the [Pastry Chef] profession would attract a talented pastry chef, building ten communities would give [Architect] Vilune new construction ideas.
Lin Ke completed all these tasks, though during his two-year coma, tasks appeared but as he wasn’t conscious, they failed.
But this ti’s task...
[Task: The Veil of Light]
[The day you successfully recover coincides with Gula Kingdom’s 20-year noble title evaluation day. Go, let your light shine in the Abyss and obtain your prize—the Houston Plane!]
[Reward: Mysterious Resources]
Gula Kingdom’s 20-year noble title evaluation day primarily served for assessing lords.
Duke titles require level twenty and above power, Marquis level eighteen and above, Count level fifteen and above, Viscount level ten and above, and Baron level five.
And to beco a knight, one must be a practitioner with significant contributions to the lord, while Pioneer Knights required fewer requirents, appointed freely.
This power doesn’t an only the patriarch must reach it; the entire clan can satisfy it.
Like Count Akel in the past, he lacked this power personally.
But because he operated pet shops nationwide, his wealth was imnse, allowing him to hire practitioners of level fifteen into the family, becoming a Count.
So were due to their military, so due to knowledge, others magic circles...
But so lord families declined, lacking sufficient power for their rank, losing their titles.
In Naseng, nobles are of two types: personal nobles and family-transmission nobles, with those having territories and those without.
Lin Ke is a personal noble and a territorial noble, possessing territories and is also Count.
Garoce is a family noble and territorial noble, Azen is a Viscount clan.
This ti, Lin Ke needed to proceed with Garoce to the Abyss for the noble council.
This 20-year noble council is also one of Naseng’s festivities.
At that ti, the Holy Life Alliance, Eternal Freeze Court, Human Principalities, and various races and forces farther west will all co to the Abyss to participate.
Rember, Naseng Continent isn’t only the three main powers; though Holy Life Alliance, Eternal Freeze Court, and Gula Kingdom remain the trio where humans are in charge or majority.
Human proportion is lesser in other forces.
This noble council resembles a parade, showcasing Gula’s might.
Various competitions will be included.
The Houston Plane is one of the prizes!
