Chapter 213: Chapter 214: Cui Nuanjun

After an hour of sailing, the battleship finally reached its destination.

Lin Luo and Chu You stood at the ship’s side, seeing a distinct road on the shoreline. The road was extraordinarily long, with no visible beginning or end. It took on a wave-like shape, descending from the mountains at the end, and then ascending from a certain point.

This point was precisely where Chu You’s battleship had docked!

"Did you see it? Soon, this place will become the Land of Slaughter." The two of them stood very close together, their armaments occasionally rubbing against each other without making a sound.

"The journey was quite boring, yet you insisted on coming along."

"Did I?" Lin Luo shook her head, her eyes sparkling brightly, "The previous encounter with the pirate ship was quite entertaining."

During their journey, Chu You’s battleship encountered a rather weak pirate ship, which met a tragic end at the hands of Lin Luo. Seeing that the pirate ship wasn’t a threat, she replaced the original skilled gunner and took over the main cannon to attack the enemy.

Although she was a novice, under unrestrained cannon fire, the opponent was completely annihilated. Lin Luo’s proficiency as a gunner thus increased a level. Chu You, content with her enjoyment, silently used strategic resources to refill the ammunition warehouse.

With more than eight hours to go, Chu You felt there was plenty of time. He thus transported with Lin Luo back to the royal city of the Yan Kingdom using the Return Skill, leaving the enormous battleship motionless in the middle of the river. Before leaving, he set the battleship to full operation mode, meaning that unless Chu You himself intervened, the Chiyou One Warship would strike first with a cannon attack at any ships within range.

Chu You did not worry about the battleship’s safety, as currently, no players owned a battleship, nor did any merchant vessels belong to players.

As Chu You was preparing to head off with two Shadow Guards and Lin Luo to complete a task, a bird suddenly swooped down from the sky and perched accurately on Chu You’s shoulder.

System: You have a letter tied to the leg of the Phantom Beast. Please collect it.

This Flying Illusive Beast perched on his shoulder, occasionally making ’Gu Gu’ calls as if to hurry and remind him. Chu You saw a letter indeed tied to the bird’s leg and instantly had a hunch of what it might be.

When Chu You unwrapped the string and took out the slip of paper, the Flying Illusive Beast suddenly vanished in a puff of smoke.

The note carried only a brief message: Urgent matters at the Grand Marshal Mansion. Return quickly!

...

"Father, Nuanjun has long decided, and desperately wants it, no matter how Night Ghost treats me, I want to be with him."

"Father, Night Ghost’s strength is clear to all, you also admire him. Such a person, don’t you trust him?"

"Sigh! I am afraid. I am afraid..." The Grand Marshal seemed to struggle with his words.

"You’re afraid that your daughter will be bullied?" Nuanjun asked, her large, plum-blossom eyes pure and her voice melodious, "What reason would he have to bully your daughter? How could someone like him, a Son of Heaven and Earth, do such a thing? I wouldn’t believe it, even if I had to die."

"I’m afraid you’ll suffer!" The Grand Marshal finally voiced his concerns.

"Suffer? Father, has your daughter not suffered, being confined here for 14 years?"

"The flowers and delicious food in this mansion may seem appealing, but to me, they are gray, lifeless objects!"

"Sigh, Nuanjun, you’re too young. You haven’t yet felt the malice that comes from the outside world."

"Even though I am young, I am not immature. Father, you noticed this long ago, didn’t you? I am a Spiritual Body and dreamt of that figure these past few days. I felt a call from the depths."

"He, is destined to be mine. And I, am also destined to be his."

"Father, I can assure you, you will not find another man like Night Ghost. When you think you’ve found him, Night Ghost... will have already ascended to godhood."

"All of this, are they just dreams?" The Grand Marshal’s face was a mix of emotions.

"Indeed, are you refusing your daughter to follow a future god, Father?"

...

After instructing Lin Luo to do as she pleased, Chu You set off for the Grand Marshal Mansion, his eyes filled with pondering and astonishment.

This hidden Hero NPC was truly formidable, managing to advance the interaction with players in such a short time. Within himself, Chu You knew that the current situation was definitely the result of Nuanjun independently unlocking the prerequisites.

Moreover, Chu You had a faint feeling that regardless of who it was, if a player entered the Grand Marshal Mansion and encountered this hidden Hero NPC, she would automatically awaken her independent program and, unbeknown to the player, interact with ’-level’ NPCs related to her, ultimately unlocking the prerequisites.

Of course, this would only happen when players are unable to fulfill the prerequisites, a top-tier NPC would judge and start the independent unlocking program.

Such hidden Hero NPCs are extremely rare!

In retrospect, he had underestimated Nuanjun! Reflecting on previous events, the more Chu You thought, the stranger it seemed. Because in either his previous life or this one, he had never heard of an NPC with characteristics like Nuanjun, such as discussing the Main World, Chu You’s real world!

This raises an unavoidable question, the main brain!

One thing that can be confirmed is that Nuanjun’s NPC privilege level must be extremely outrageous.

Such an exceptional NPC, accidentally met by himself!

Chu You didn’t feel extremely excited about this because, from his past life, he knew that NPCs with strong self-determination, although they indeed have unique attributes, are hard to control, since one can hardly distinguish whether their intelligence is superior to that of humans.

As for Nuanjun, who could mention NPCs in the Main World, the level of her intelligence is apparent and absolutely outrageous!

With these complex feelings, Chu You robustly stepped into the Grand Marshal Mansion.

...

"Night Ghost, let’s take a seat inside!" Grand Marshal didn’t look well at this time, his facial expression indecipherable whether he was worried or simply being his usual self.

"As a father, I must ask you once more, what are your feelings towards Nuanjun?" Grand Marshal asked first.

"Grand Marshal, with everything that has happened, I will say it all."

"Firstly, as for Nuanjun’s spiritual body, only someone like me can help her grow more thoroughly. This benefits her, myself, and you. As for the power, I’ve shown you, it’s just the tip of the iceberg!" Chu You turned his head after finishing speaking. As he looked at the Grand Marshal again, there seemed to be an endless depth in his eyes.

"Secondly, I am very fond of this young lady, Nuanjun. I will not let her be wronged in any way. My wings are large enough to shield her from any malice!"

"How can I believe you?" When Grand Marshal voiced this question, there was a clear sense of softening. Chu You knew it was time to stoke the fire!
