Little Bunny had already known for a long time that his master was a Si Sheng fan, and he also knew why his master was like this.
During the closed beta, the video of Si Sheng performing Thunder Judgment outside Orchid Moon City was still at the top of the click list on the forum. It could be said that it had seduced countless people into the game.
80% of people who chose the thunder element had watched this video.
It was just that ideals were full of hope, but reality was very skinny. Promotional videos were just promotional videos after all. No player in the game had learned this move so far. Even when many people asked the thunder NPC mentors for advice and said they wanted to learn this move, their hopes were in vain and they would also lose favorability.
This move must be a pain in the hearts of many thunder-type NPCs, right?
Even though he felt helpless, Little Rabbit still admired and yearned for Si Sheng, the patron saint of the Roland Empire.
It would be great if the gaming group could let Si Sheng and His Majesty Snow show up at the opening ceremony when the Starry Era Cup officially started. These two had always been inseparable. Even he, who didn’t ship their CP, would think of His Majesty Snow when he thought of Si Sheng.
As the leader of the faction, His Majesty Snow was also very handsome and his sound killing skills were so cool!
Little Rabbit daydreamed about it. The more he thought about it, the more interesting it became.
Thus, he opened the forum and posted an appeal using his own ID.
He was quite popular now, especially when he left with such a cool suspense. The whole Internet was currently guessing who his master was, not to mention that this was a proposal in line with public opinion.
At once, all the fans of Si Sheng and Snow rushed in.
[CP fans are delighted!]
[Yes yes, how can the opening ceremony be complete without the faction leader and the guardian?]
[Since we can make such realistic projections, then wouldn’t it be okay to project His Majesty Snow and Marshal Si Sheng? It would be even better if they could interact with the audience. After all, the NPCs of Starry Sky Age are so intelligent!]
Little Rabbit nodded with satisfaction.
The planners of Starry Sky Age hadn’t changed their dog nature, but they would sometimes listen to public opinion.
He hoped that all the popular NPCs could be projected at the opening ceremony. It would be really perfect if they could interact!
The boy fantasized about it, not realizing how big a challenge he had created for the game planners.
It was a bit difficult but it wasn’t completely impossible.
So when Xu Yuheng received the relevant planning report, he was stunned.
Did these people know how intelligent the NPCs of Starry Sky Age were? By doing this, weren’t they afraid that the NPCs would become like Xiao Wu and awaken their self-awareness one day?
Only…
Thinking about the fact that his grandparents were currently unable to play the game due to their old age and that he didn’t know when they could play the game, Xu Yuheng couldn’t help being tempted.
The elderly couple were getting older year by year. Who knew when they would leave forever? Xu Yuheng didn’t want them to have any regrets.
If Xiao Li’s image could really be projected and even interact with people…
He didn’t hesitate any longer and approved the plan directly.
***
The atmosphere in the other main cities was lively due to the auditions, but the relatively closed off Food City was still quiet and peaceful. Only the beauty salon was crowded with people every day.
Angela spent a few days and finally finished all the projects.
When she went out now, she basically didn’t wear any makeup except for some necessary skin care products. She just wanted to show others her flawless natural look.
It was a pity that almost all the women in the tour group had been to the beauty salon, and even most of the men had been there as well. Thus, her beautiful bare face didn’t stand out among these 600 people, let alone cause a sensation like Kelly.
However, Angela didn’t care much. Her main purpose was to take photos and post updates.
In the Roland Empire, wearing local outfits, holding various simple or exquisitely packaged delicacies, and taking a beautiful photo without makeup would definitely attract a lot of attention.
When she first posted it, she said she wasn’t wearing any makeup, but no one believed her.
Angela didn’t explain too much. She just sent a message to her group of girlfriends, asking her friends to quickly book tickets to come to the Roland Empire. Once the news spread widely, it would be even more difficult to get tickets than it was now.
By then, not only those who wanted cosmetic treatments would come. There would also be those with difficult and complicated diseases that couldn’t be cured with the medical cabin.
After all, even infertility could be healed! There would definitely be people who came to the Roland Empire to seek medical treatment with a try-it-out mentality.
“Is it really that magical?”
“Little Angela, did you really not use photo editing to deceive people?”
“Haha, this picture doesn’t look like you at all!”
Angela rolled her eyes. Of course, these friends all knew her situation. It was normal for them to not believe her.
So in a fit of anger, she performed a live face-washing show!
She even used the latest skin tester and showed them the data after on-site testing. Once they saw that her health level was as high as 99% and she was given the evaluation of ‘stunning’, her girlfriends had to believe it.
Then they started scrambling to find all types of connections to grab tickets.
Angela and her group were just the first tour group to arrive. The second one came three days later, and the others were on the way.
This was the first batch of tourists, totaling 10,000.
It seemed like a lot, but it was actually very little compared to the entire universe.
The subsequent members of the Interstellar Alliance were still under review, or waiting to be sold at a price. It was unknown how high the ticket price would be after the beauty salon experience was exposed.
Xu Sili handed over the approval work to the Interstellar Alliance, with only strict restrictions on quantity.
In any case, the activities of these alien tourists were limited to the Food City. Those who could appear in the Food City were those he believed wouldn’t cause trouble even if things were exposed.
For example, the short-distance teleportation circles.
Adrian soon showed up.
When the Interstellar Alliance’s delegation visited the Roland Empire, Xu Sili hadn’t exposed the teleportation circles. After all, it was a collision between two different civilizations. He felt that there was no harm in being a bit cautious.
“Your Majesty Roland, I wonder if it is difficult to build such a teleportation circle?” After congratulating the Food City on its success, Adrian got to the point.
“Can ordinary people control it? Or can only magicians use it?”
There were several high-ranking officials of the Interstellar Alliance among the passengers. Once the short-distance teleportation circle was exposed, they saw its huge value and were eager to cooperate with the Roland Empire immediately.
However, after asking the person who received them, they found that the Roland Empire currently only accepted contact from Adrian. Adrian was the only one who could directly contact the emperor of the Roland Empire. As for other people, they couldn’t be trusted for the time being.
There was no other way. The top executives had to ask Adrian to take action.
Adrian was also very grateful for the respect that the Roland Empire had shown him. So in every cooperation, he would do his best to gain the greatest benefits for the Roland Empire and strive to be worthy of this protection.
This time, the liaison officer made no exception.
Xu Sili took out the teleportation circle, naturally wanting to cooperate.
The short-distance teleportation circle could only be used in cities, and the longest teleportation distance was only 100 kilometers. Relatively speaking, it was a bit useless. An ordinary hover car could easily run two or three hundred kilometers per hour. In terms of saving time, it actually wasn’t that fast.
However, as long as multiple teleportation circles were combined, it would be very convenient, especially for inter-city transportation.
Ultra-long distance teleportation circles across planets would be more sensitive and might cause some nations to have concerns, but short-distance ones wouldn’t be a problem.
The transportation that originally took only an hour now took around three minutes using the teleportation circle. There was almost zero loss.
If the energy loss each time wasn’t much, the cost savings shouldn’t be too large.
In some populous nations, traffic jams often occurred. If this teleportation circle could ensure safety and stability, it would definitely be loved by the general public.
“Ordinary people can start and shut it down. The teleportation circle will operate automatically, but the control and adjustment requires the intervention of an elementalist,” Xu Sili explained patiently to Adrian.
He also sincerely wanted to cooperate with the Interstellar Alliance.
If successful, this would definitely become a stable source of income for the Roland Empire. The construction of the teleportation circle might only charge for the cost, but the subsequent use would require energy stones.
What? How could the energy stone of a magic civilization be the same as that of a technological civilization?
The beast core of the interstellar beasts might be a high-quality energy stone and could be put into a mecha for use, but this didn’t mean that the energy stone of a mecha could be used for the teleportation circle.
Even if it was possible, Xu Sili would make it impossible.
Therefore, if they wanted to use the teleportation circle, they must purchase it from the Roland Empire.
With the threat of the military force that wiped out the Clive star thieves, other nations would have to think carefully if they wanted to rob the spaceship.
According to what Adrian revealed to him, the Roland Empire might be lacking in some aspects, but its military strength was ranked among the top 20 in the Interstellar Alliance.
Once the results came out next year, the nation’s overall strength ranking would surely rise, which would also be a deterrent.
Xu Sili was very satisfied. As more and more players joined the game, he was no longer afraid.
The only problem now was that the majority of magic circle masters in the Roland Empire were still players.
There were only a dozen or so NPC magic circle masters. After all, this profession had only been back for less than two years. It took time to train talent.
So, this presented a problem.
If orders for the teleportation circle surged in a short period of time, it might be necessary to send players out.
Otherwise, according to the time required for interstellar travel, the future of these magic circle masters would probably be either building teleportation circles or on the way to building teleportation circles. Xu Sili couldn’t bear to let them go.
Now was the best time for them to learn and practice. He couldn’t do a thing as killing the goose that lays the eggs.
In other words, the time had come to let players leave the territory of the Roland Empire and officially step foot in the interstellar space.
