The little sprite finally decided to play a small trick on Yulia. After all, he really wanted to bring good luck to this cute human.
However, the sprite was a bit troubled as to how to tease her.
As he was thinking, Yulia had already asked for his permission and moved a chair over. She sat next to the table, put her hand on her chin and looked at him with a smile.
A cute human girl with sparkling red eyes and two rabbit teeth were visible when she smiled.
The little sprite felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at by her.
“Don’t look at me like that.” He put down the candy in his hand and said righteously.
“Oh, I’m sorry, Master Small Round Biscuit.”
Yulia immediately put down her hands and lowered her head. She didn’t dare to look at him again.
Small Round Biscuit, “……”
It didn’t have to be like that.
He tilted his head before finally digging out a few of the methods he used to play pranks on human children from deep in his memory.
He looked at Yulia, who had her head down and said, “I’m thirsty. I want to drink some water.”
“Okay, Sir Small Round Biscuit.”
Yulia stood up. “Please wait a moment. I will prepare it for you.”
Small Round Biscuit watched her walk out of the room. Then he flapped his thin wings and flew to the window.
The window glass was clear and bright. Gentle sunlight shone in from outside.
He looked through the glass at the peaceful and tranquil campus outside. For a moment, he seemed to have returned to the time when he was just born a hundred years ago.
If only Turles could see all of this…
The little sprite thought so and his eyes fell on the branches near the window. He saw the wriggling little insect on it and couldn’t help grinning. He revealed a smile that showed that his prank was about to succeed.
Turles said that girls were afraid of bugs! Especially a cute girl like Yulia!
Soon, Yulia came in from outside. She held a clay jar that she gently placed on the table.
The lid opened, revealing clear water that was still swaying slightly.
Then she took out a cup around the size of a fingernail from her pocket. She gently scooped two drops of water from the clay pot, took out a small table from the house model and placed the cup on it.
“Sir Small Round Biscuit, your water,” Yulia said gently.
The little sprite flapped his wings and flew over.
When had he ever used such exquisite things before? He used to drink water from leaves.
He carefully picked up his cup.
In fact, the cup was a bit too big for him. In proportion with his body size, it was about the same size as a pot. Nevertheless, he drank from it with relish.
Oh, he loved the Roland Empire so much! If Turles was here, he would be very happy.
However, the little sprite didn’t show it. He coughed lightly and said to the little maid, “Yulia, I don’t want to look at the light screen anymore. Please help me turn it off.”
“Okay.”
Yulia nodded and walked to the table next to her.
The sprite put down the cup and observed her secretly. Teasing girls didn’t seem to be a good thing, but it was a sprite’s nature and he felt very excited.
He waited for the moment when Yulia would scream in fear.
Yulia walked to the device. She was about to turn off the monitor, but when she looked down, she saw a small green insect wriggling next to the monitor’s switch.
For a moment, her expression changed drastically.
Under the gaze of the little sprite, she quickly took out a handkerchief and hit the insect with lightning speed.
Finally, under Small Round Biscuit’s dull gaze, she wrapped up the insect’s body. She wiped away the green blood as if nothing had happened. Then she wrapped the handkerchief even more tightly.
It was only then that Yuria’s expression relaxed.
She turned her head and saw the sprite staring at her blankly. She panicked and quickly lifted the hem of her skirt, saying apologetically, “I’m sorry, Sir Small Round Biscuit. I let you see such dirty things.”
“Please give me another chance. I will clean the room thoroughly and this will never happen again.”
The little sprite closed his open mouth. He gulped and said dryly, “Uh, it’s okay…”
“Sir Small Round Biscuit, you are truly the cutest and kindest master in the world!”
After saying this happily, Yulia carefully checked every corner of the room again to make sure there were no other small insects. Then she left to deal with the insect ‘remains’ in her hands.
The little sprite watched her leaving back and fell silent for a moment.
On the light curtain, Yin Xing entered the next room and came to Turles’ stone tablet.
He looked at the stone tablet in front of him and finally confirmed his previous guess. The inheritance of the inscription master was indeed transferred by Roland’s army.
Yin Xing observed the stone tablet. Then he placed his hand on it according to the system’s prompts and entered it with excitement.
[Welcome to the inscription space. You will start the first phase of inscription learning. For every hour of learning, there will be a class test.]
[Please listen carefully and don’t be distracted.]
Yin Xing watched the books on the bookshelf fly over and spread out in front of him.
He originally thought that studying to become an inscription master was referring to these books. He didn’t expect to see a figure appear in front of him.
He was slightly stunned when he saw the young Turles. Then he soon realized that this was just an image left behind by Turles, just like a real teaching video.
Obviously, the ‘teaching video’ of Starry Sky Age was more awesome. It looked like a real person was standing in front of him.
[Note: You have started the introductory learning of the inscription master. Please don’t quit halfway, or you will have to start over.]
This meant the progress bar of the teaching video couldn’t be saved. There was also no way to fast forward or slow down.
Yin Xing nodded secretly. He sat down at the table in the middle and started to carefully listen to Turles’ lecture.
First, it was about the history of the inscription masters.
He realized that the profession of inscription master was originally derived from an alchemist. Later, it developed into an independent and powerful profession.
Listening to Turles recounting the glory of the inscription masters in the past and thinking back to the Siasa civilization that had become ruins and disappeared, Yin Xing couldn’t help sighing emotionally.
At the same time, he felt that this class would make the factual researchers ecstatic.
So far, Yin Xing was the only one who obtained the learning certificate. Therefore, no one came to disturb him during his learning process.
He studied for two hours straight and took two quizzes, both of which he passed with full marks.
He was just about to continue studying when his communicator rang.
[You have a new message. You need to exit the inscription space to view it.]
Being unable to record videos or communicate with the outside world in the inscription space might be torture for other players, but it was nothing for Yin Xing, who had been lying in bed for a year.
Yin Xing hesitated for a moment. Then he decided to temporarily exit the inscription space.
Perhaps it was because his first stage of learning hadn’t been completed. Even after he exited the inscription space, the system didn’t remind him that his profession change was successful.
However, Yin Xing wasn’t in a hurry. He glanced at the unread messages.
Changan Yipianyue: [Ah Xing, I just came online. It seems that due to my video, someone has found the entrance to the ruins!]
Changan Yipianyue: [Ah, I didn’t expect them to move so quickly. The video should be released later… How are you doing over there? Is everything going well?]
Yin Xing directly sent him a team request. After joining the team, he said, “It’s nothing. The clues are actually very obvious. It is natural for them to find it.”
After all, they were all old players for many years. There must be people who discovered the abnormality of the stationary screaming dryads like them.
“I’m doing very well here and have already started studying.”
Then Yin Xing told Deng Jianan about the history and power of the inscription master, as well as the difficulty of learning.
“So, the game group is really planning to teach us how to engrave inscriptions, right?”
Deng Jianan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Inscription masters must concentrate on their lessons! They also had to take tests every hour!
He had thought that learning to be an inscription master was like learning to be an elementalist. After reaching a certain level, they could successfully change professions by testing their talent. Learning skills would also be very, very simple.
They just needed an NPC to teach and they could click to learn.
In comparison, the profession of an inscription master was simply at a hell difficulty!
Originally, he was thinking of trying his luck in the test passage again. Now… he just lay down and gave up!
“Maybe it will be less difficult later on.” Yin Xing was more optimistic.
Now he was in the first stage of getting started and all he was learning was theoretical knowledge. He hadn’t started the actual engraving yet. However, this theoretical knowledge was probably similar to memorizing game strategies.
“Okay, go back in and study quickly. I’m going to trip up those people and slow down their progress.”
This was even though he thought that these people wouldn’t be able to pass the test in the short term.
Yin Xing frowned and wanted to stop him, but Deng Jianan had already left the team.
In order to live up to this kindness. Yin Xing took the opportunity to enter the inscription space and start studying again.
In fact, it was just as Deng Jianan guessed. Even without his interference, in the short term, few players would be able to achieve a 96% similarity in the first try like Yin Xing.
However, the temptation of the inscription master was too great. Players who had no talent in drawing still insisted on conquering the test.
At first, the people who discovered the passage didn’t make it known. Soon, the entrance to the passage was controlled by the mercenary group.
Deng Jianan, who wanted to cause trouble, was also killed.
Since Yin Xing’s learning progress was far ahead of others, Deng Jianan was so angry that he released the second video and told the exact entrance to the passage, attracting a large number of players.
The large guild that originally controlled the entrance had to give up the entrance in the midst of the public outcry.
More and more players poured into the ruins.
There was a large number of people, but they all shrank in size after entering the ruins. This meant the space wasn’t crowded.
The players who came here first went to watch the ‘cutscene’ and were shocked by the inscription illusion. Then they all decided to learn how to create inscription illusions.
However, most players were blocked by the test channel.
A large number of players were forced to stay in the underground ruin where they explored and played. In addition to the room of the test passage, they found more and larger rooms.
However, no one could go to the secret room where the qualification was stored. They could only continue to practice engraving patterns on stone slabs outside the test passage.
Then one day, they found out…
They didn’t need reputation, a property purchase certificate or to pay taxes when setting up a stall or building a house in the underground ruins.
