The moment Qing Yan’s words came out, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly froze.
The aura of Queen Heidi’s body exploded in an instant. After all, she was a genuine four star powerhouse. Even if she was in trouble, the power in her body was incomparable to that of any player.
Qing Yan wasn’t afraid despite facing the sudden pressure from her.
[Ding~ You are under the mental pressure of Queen Heidi and your movement speed is reduced by 10%.]
Apart from the negative state of slowing down, she had lowered her sense of reality so the pressure from the sea elf queen didn’t cause her much psychological pressure.
Thus, she looked relaxed.
The two ladies were facing each other. Grumpy Little Rabbit looked between them and instantly felt overwhelmed!
He hadn’t expected such a scene to happen.
The price Roland Empire wanted for helping the sea elves was to make them submit…
He hadn’t heard Qing Yan mention it before, but since she said this, it was obvious that she had received a mission.
In fact, this was true.
She triggered a legendary mission the moment Qing Yan appeared in front of the sea elves.
The mission required her to persuade the queen of the sea elves to completely submit to Roland and accept the rule of the Roland Empire.
Since it concerned the survival of a rare race, it wasn’t surprising that it reached the legendary level.
At this time, Grumpy Little Rabbit also received a mission.
[Main Mission-Choice]
[Description: The sea elves are facing the crisis of genocide. The Roland Empire is extending a helping hand to the remaining sea elves, but requires the sea elves to surrender. Queen Heidi is caught in a dilemma.
Mission: Help Queen Heidi make the right decision.
Reward: Unknown.]
Grumpy Little Rabbit was stunned.
The right decision?
In his opinion, it was better to surrender. However, the sea elves were proud and arrogant. Given Queen Heidi’s character, she probably wouldn’t be willing to surrender even if she died.
He couldn’t help frowning.
In front of the surveillance screen, Xu Sili was called back by Xiao Wu and watched this scene with interest.
He didn’t know if Qing Yan had been given a mission—he didn’t issue any additional orders to her. But based on his understanding of this female player, her behavior seemed a bit impulsive.
Therefore, there was a high possibility that she had received a system mission.
To be honest, for the sake of Sea Song and Chamo, he couldn’t take any tough measures against the sea elves. It was just that the sea elf clan was crucial to his next plan.
He originally wanted to cooperate with the queen of the sea elves, but now that Qing Yan had done this, he had to wait and see what happened.
Queen Heidi looked at the female warrior who was said to be from the Roland Empire. Seeing her calm expression. Queen Heidi finally withdrew her pressure.
Rationally or emotionally, she couldn’t accept that the sea elves, who had been around for millions of years, would submit to the human race.
“Your Majesty…”
Beside her, a young man’s voice sounded cautiously. He said, “I hope you don’t refuse this proposal so quickly.”
Queen Heidi stared at him, narrowing her eyes slightly.
Grumpy Little Rabbit felt a bit aggrieved. Queen Heidi looked at him like he was a traitor.
He muttered, “Let me tell you about the current situation on land.”
“In the natural disaster a hundred years ago, almost all human nations on Escher Star were destroyed, leaving only the Roland Empire. Now in the entire continent, no, the entire planet, only the Roland Empire is safe.”
Queen Heidi continued to stare at him, but her eyes weren’t as sharp as before. She was lost in thought.
“The Roland Empire was also rebuilt from the ruins. It just resisted a large-scale beast wave. During the beast wave, the Roland Empire’s strength didn’t decrease and instead increased.”
“Roland isn’t that powerful yet, but it will show its fangs sooner or later.”
“You know the forest elves, right?” Grumpy Little Rabbit continued. “They have been living in the Roland Empire for the past hundred years and have surrendered not long ago.”
“His Majesty Roland saved the Tree of Life and arranged a secluded place for them to live. The leader of the forest elves… the queen has a very good relationship with His Highness Sea Song!”
“By the way, she gave this to me.”
Grumpy Little Rabbit took out a leaf from the Tree of Life. The Tree of Life above their heads suddenly trembled, causing the surrounding water to vibrate.
Queen Heidi held the leaf of the Tree of Life and her expression gradually became surprised.
“Chamo?”
She actually sensed the breath of an old friend on the leaf.
Once she triggered that breath, an image suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.
It was a man wearing coral red earrings with short silver-gray hair.
“Heidi, if you can see this message, it proves that they really found you.”
“Sea Song is fine. Don’t worry.”
“His Majesty Roland is a man who is good at creating miracles. Don’t look down on us just because the number of rescuers is small. If he says he can save you, he must have a way to do it.”
“Agree to all their requests.”
“Heidi, live! It is only by living that there is hope.”
Queen Heidi listened to her old friend’s words and looked at his familiar yet somewhat weathered face. For a moment, she seemed to have returned to her youth.
At that time, she wasn’t the queen yet. She secretly ran to the shore to take risks and met the silver wolf called Chamo by chance.
He was also very young at that time and he was accompanied by a little leopard. Together, they traveled and adventured around the continent, turning the human country upside down.
Her eyes became a bit moist.
Live… it was only by living that there could be hope.
Queen Heidi’s eyes swept over the 30 or so remaining clan members who were wandering among the branches. They looked at her quietly while waiting for her decision.
They followed her and suffered too much.
Did she really want to make them give up their only hope for the sake of illusory pride and dignity? Since Chamo trusted the Roland Empire so much…
What if the sea elves took a gamble?
“Okay!” Queen Heidi looked at Qing Yan again. “Envoy from the Roland Empire, I promise you.”
“If the Roland Empire can help the sea elves escape our predicament and live a stable life again. then the sea elves are willing to surrender.”
“But you must show me action right away!”
Okay, it was done!
Qing Yan was so nervous that she almost died. Seeing Queen Heidi agree, she immediately nodded and said, “No problem!”
The legendary mission she received hadn’t been completed but she entered the next step. Prove it to the sea elf queen with her actions and gain the queen’s initial trust.
The main task of Grumpy Little Rabbit had also become to assist from the side. He should be tested to see whether this choice was correct or not before he could get the reward.
Lin Mu and the others looked at Qing Yan. They all knew that she had received a legendary mission. They might be envious but they didn’t make trouble and were quite cooperative.
After all, they were still a team at the moment. They would prosper together and suffer together.
“Old Zhang, make this ground smoother.”
Chang Zhang was an earth elementalist. He nodded when he heard this, restored the deep hole they had just created and smoothed it out according to Qing Yan’s request.
Once he was all done, Qing Yan took a few steps forward and asked the people around her to move away. Then…
She pulled out a card.
As the first person to become a card master, she was the only player who could use cards.
She threw the card upward. As her magic power decreased, the card moved in the sea water. Finally, it shone brightly and turned into rays of light that fell on the ground with Qing Yan in the center.
Players who already had some understanding of formations suddenly discovered that this was a teleportation circle!
Xu Sili, who was sitting in front of the surveillance camera, couldn’t help smiling when he saw this scene.
It was a success!
He sent a message to Chamo.
“If you want to see your old friend, bring Sea Song to see me.”
Meanwhile, the barrage filled the screen of the live broadcast.
[Oh my god, when did Sister Yan get this teleportation circle?]
[It should be a mission item.]
[I didn’t expect that the real hidden talent was Qing Yan! Awesome!]
[A card master is so cool. I want to change my job too.]
Queen Heidi was a bit hesitant. She knew that this should be a human magic circle but she didn’t know what its function was.
After all, she had never studied it and it had been too long since she wandered on land.
She frowned and looked at Qing Yan, waiting for her to explain.
Qing Yan smiled without saying anything. She took out an interstellar beast core from her backpack and inserted it into the groove in the center of the teleportation circle.
[So the energy for the teleportation circle can be provided by the interstellar beast core?]
[So the beast core is very precious?]
[I have a lot of cores in stock. Is there anyone who wants to buy them?]
Her small action once again sparked discussion among the players, but she ignored it.
After she replenished the energy of the teleportation circle, she moved to the side. According to the instructions given to her by His Majesty Snow before, someone would teleport over later.
This time, the NPCs finally stopped progressing the plot on their own! This was a perfect score for participation!
The next moment, the teleportation circle shone brightly.
Queen Heidi swam back vigilantly, but the Tree of Life didn’t react. There should be no danger, so she stopped where she was.
She stared at the light closely. Once it gradually faded away, Queen Heidi was stunned and her eyes widened in disbelief.
“Chamo… Sea Song…” She murmured as tears welled up in her eyes again.
Sea Song burst into tears the moment he saw her.
“Queen Mother!”
He turned into a tiny merman. He flapped his blue tail vigorously and swam toward his mother, whom he had been separated from for so long.
