The morning light streamed through the curtains and onto the floor of the room. Bexia held Christine, who was barely clothed, feeling both satisfied and amazed by the previous night's madness. Perhaps due to their abundant vitality, Bexia had continued his craziness until dawn, only releasing Christine when she was completely exhausted. Seeing her tired face, Bexia was filled with love and indulgence, and he held her tighter in his arms.
Feeling Christine's smooth skin, Bexia couldn't help but recall the events of the previous night. Christine wasn't as "capable" as she had claimed, at least during the later part of the night when she begged for mercy. But Bexia, who was deceived, didn't just let her off the hook so easily. Furthermore, it seemed that he had an excess of energy, as he felt mentally excited and his body showed no signs of fatigue.
If it weren't for his sympathy towards Christine, Bexia could have fought for a whole day and night! After all, that kind of feeling was simply irresistible to a novice like him!
Taking a greedy sniff of the fragrance on Christine's body, Bexia pulled her into his arms and then closed his eyes, logging into the virtual world.
"Welcome back, Master!" came the voice of Xiaobing. Bexia had returned to the dilapidated mansion.
"Even though it's not my first time here, this realistic feeling is truly astonishing!" Bexia clenched his fist and glanced around the courtyard. The current level of decay was already at eighty-one percent. If it reached ninety-nine percent, it would no longer belong to him.
Bexia had also learned some information: obtaining an independent residence in the virtual world was not easy and held great value. Therefore, he didn't plan on abandoning this inexplicably acquired mansion. As for how to reduce its degree of decay, it was simple: it only required spending dimensional coins to repair the buildings and take care of the plants. In the end, it all came down to money.
Opening the interface of the mansion, the conditions for reducing the degree of decay were listed densely. Every single condition required tens of thousands of dimensional coins, and some even reached the million mark. On top of that, the total amount required to solve all the conditions at once was a whopping ten million.
It should be noted that solving them all at once came with a discount. Otherwise, it would be impossible to resolve the issue of the mansion's decay without twelve million dimensional coins.
"Speaking of which, how does one earn money quickly in this virtual world?" Bexia looked at the intelligent sprite Xiaobing sitting on his shoulder and decided to ask her since she was supposed to be his assistant.
"Master, there are many ways to earn dimensional coins in the virtual world. Among them, completing missions and challenging monsters are the fastest ways to earn them. However, it is not guaranteed that every mission will come with a high reward. Challenging monsters, on the other hand, requires strong strength; otherwise, it would be a suicide mission."
"Considering Master's current strength, I recommend looking for powerful monster lords to challenge. After defeating them, you will receive plenty of rewards, which can be sold for a large amount of dimensional coins!"
"But where can I find these monsters?!"
"Master, you are currently in your own territory, which is a safe zone protected by the rules of the virtual world. There can't be any monsters here, only when you leave the safe zone and enter the wild area will monsters appear."
"It's my fault!" Bexia touched his nose, awkwardly smiled, and looked at his almost neglected manor. He opened the virtual image and found the way out.
"Do you need to open the mini-map, Master?" Xiao Bing suddenly asked.
"Yes, open it!" Bexia nodded. This mini-map was a virtual network world function that provided simple information about the real area. It could only be displayed after exploring it personally. Otherwise, it would show a black fog.
"Hint: You have entered the 'Eternal Tree Sea' area!"
"Hint: This area is recommended for levels 50 to 70. Please be aware of your own safety!"
As soon as Bexia stepped out of the manor, two voices from the virtual network world sounded. He glanced at the mini-map and then opened the mini-map about the 'Eternal Tree Sea' area. He found that his mini-map had a very detailed description, even clear divisions of each area. It also marked some local specialties and types of monsters, and even their weaknesses were clearly written.
"Xiao Bing, are the mini-maps always this detailed?" Bexia had read about the introduction of the mini-maps, so he asked Xiao Bing this question.
"The mini-maps cannot be this detailed. This kind of marking needs to be done by the user themselves!" Xiao Bing replied.
"Not only is the level maxed out, even the mini-map is marked in such detail. It's as if someone has used this account before, and then upgraded everything to the limit, and then I inherited this account." Bexia pondered. Wasn't it said that soul auras couldn't be identical? But why did his obtained account look like this as soon as he entered? And the virtual network world confirmed that this was not a bug, and all the data was normal.
With this account, Bexia had a lot of questions popping up in his mind, but the headache was that even if he wanted to find the root cause of the problem, he had no clue where to start.
"Never mind! It doesn't matter to me anyway." Bexia shook his head, temporarily letting go of some thoughts, and then scanned his surroundings.
Bexia was shocked by the scenery outside at first glance. Everywhere his eyes fell, there were brightly colored flowers, and the air was filled with the fragrant scent of flowers. With a gentle breeze, the entire flower sea swayed like a magnificent wave.
There were also many one-foot-sized colorful butterflies fluttering among them. Occasionally, small people the size of a palm could be seen emerging from the flowers. Bexia immediately checked his mini-map.
Area name: 'Flower Grand Canyon', located in the eastern side of the 'Eternal Tree Sea', belongs to the middle section area. This area is mainly inhabited by neutral flower fairies and colorful butterflies. The area level is around LV60, equivalent to champions and monarchs in the outside world.
The special product of the colorful butterflies is the Seven-colored Cotton, a rare resource in the virtual network world. It can be used to make clothing and props, and is quite valuable.
The flower fairies, on the other hand, have their special product: the Hundred Flowers Dew brewed from the dew collected from flowers. It is a rare type of healing item, also of high value, and it tastes particularly good. This was emphasized in the marking.
While Bexia was carefully examining the various markings on the mini-map, his appearance had already attracted the attention of numerous flower fairies and colorful butterflies. As the master of the Flower Grand Canyon, the two species of beings immediately noticed Bexia and curiously gathered around him.
