Chapter 517: Chapter 517

Lin Yi suddenly grew interested and looked at Frankie, having never seen what a Divine Artifact looked like.

He did not expect that Frankie, the City Lord, would have clues about a Divine Artifact, which was beyond Lin Yi’s expectations.

A Divine Artifact is virtually the pinnacle in this game, with each one being unique.

In the last game cycle, which ran for three years, the known Divine Artifacts could be counted on one hand, and there weren’t any Super Divine Artifacts, only in legend.

And this data is compiled from all the global battle zones together, not just a single battle zone!

Lin Yi did not expect to hear news about a Divine Artifact here and couldn’t help but curiously say:

"Why don’t you go ahead and tell me what clues about the Divine Artifact you have, and let me see if I’m interested."

"If I’m interested, I’ll consider whether to give up my current task."

Frankie was amused and annoyed by Lin Yi’s words and laughed, "Chosen One, do you really think we’re all fools?"

Lin Yi glanced at the players being blocked by the City Lord’s Mansion Guard on the street, then sneered at Frankie, "You have to understand that it’s you who needs my help, not me needing yours!"

"You can only gamble on whether I’ll keep my promise, not question the wisdom of both you and me."

Frankie looked at Lin Yi coldly, "With your reaction, I already know the answer."

Lin Yi looked at Frankie noncommittally, "So, you’re not planning to gamble?"

Frankie’s face darkened as he looked at Lin Yi, who smiled indifferently, "Well, see you later then."

Inwardly, he felt a little disappointed that he couldn’t extract any useful information from him.

But compared to the elusive clues of a Divine Artifact, Lin Yi cared more about this current task.

A task that Frankie was willing to gamble a Divine Artifact on—could its value be less than that of the Divine Artifact?

Thus, Lin Yi hesitated no more and turned to walk towards the coordinates given by the task.

Frankie stood where he was, watching Lin Yi leave, his thoughts unknown, expressions shifting, gaze flickering.

Meanwhile, the blocked players outside were all eagerly watching.

At this moment, most players believed that the arrival of the Floating City’s City Lord might be related to some hidden event.

This matter also stirred a heated discussion on the game’s forums.

Players from various battle zones joined the discussion, instantly sparking a nationwide debate.

Far away in the United States War Zone of the Western Great War, Satan J showed a profound expression upon hearing this:

"Feng Hua? It’s really you!"

At this moment, a deep voice sounded next to Satan J:

"Kid, from now on, you’re the new leader of our tribe."

"I hope from this moment, you will take up the mission to revitalize our tribe and awe the Hundred Races!"

Satan J’s expression turned solemn: "Satan will not betray the trust of the ancestors and will certainly lead our tribe back to the pinnacle, subduing the Hundred Races."

In a very secluded courtyard behind Ussuri City Lord’s Mansion, a few Lv48 Guards watched Lin Yi approaching, hurriedly bowing:

But Lin Yi ignored them and looked towards the inside of what seemed to have been an abandoned little courtyard for a long time.

Inside the courtyard, the ground was covered with a thick layer of fallen leaves;

The nearby rockery pool was also dirty and messy, even vaguely emitting a stench.

It was hard to imagine that within the splendid City Lord’s Mansion, there could be such a messy courtyard.

And looking at the omnipresent City Lord’s Mansion Guards, it was less believable that no one came to clean here, rather it seemed this might be a forbidden zone of Ussuri City.

Judging by the heavy guards, it’s not hard to guess that inside there must be some unknown secret.

Just as Lin Yi was about to step in, two guards suddenly blocked his way:

"Sorry, Lord Saint Master, the City Lord instructed that no one is allowed inside."

Lin Yi immediately found it amusing, "Not even me?"

The guard didn’t dare lift his head, bending over and continued to apologize: "Very sorry, Lord Saint Master, we are merely following orders."

Lin Yi sighed inwardly, realizing that his identity as the City Lord of Floating City was not invincible!

But even so, Lin Yi still wanted to test where the limits of these natives lay.

Lin Yi directly bypassed the two in front and said, "Today, I just want to see, if I want to enter, what can you do to stop me?"

Even Frankie, the City Lord who wished to tear him to pieces, couldn’t do anything to him.

Lin Yi didn’t believe these small fries would dare to defy the world and be more powerful than their City Lord?

As expected, when Lin Yi bypassed them and continued towards the courtyard, the two guards were at a loss:

Lin Yi ignored their shouts from behind, walking along the already yellowed corridor.

As Lin Yi moved, the wooden boards beneath his feet kept making a "creak" sound.

Everything was just as Lin Yi imagined; these people, though obedient to Frankie, still dared not offend him.

One of the guards said: "I’ll notify the City Lord, you guys keep watch here."

Lin Yi walked along the corridor and arrived in front of the courtyard. At this moment, in one corner of the courtyard grew a gigantic wutong tree, its leaves already withered, constantly falling with the wind.

As Lin Yi stepped in, a nameless sense of melancholy rose in his heart.

This feeling was akin to something very important about to leave him.

Yet Lin Yi was very clear that this was his first time here.

The feeling’s occurrence was quite inexplicable.

Soon after, Lin Yi turned to the small house beside him, as the coordinate indicated, the place to submit the task was inside.

Lin Yi walked to the door and just as he was about to push it open, Frankie’s voice suddenly sounded:

"Chosen One, you will regret this!"

Lin Yi heard this and snorted coldly. With a slight force in his hand, a long-sealed door slowly opened...

A beam of light shone into the room through the door Lin Yi opened.

A skeleton sitting in a chair inside the room suddenly had two small flames igniting in its deep-sunken eye sockets as the door opened.

At this moment, a gentle voice directly appeared in Lin Yi’s mind:

"Saint Master, I’ve finally waited for you."

Lin Yi looked at the skeleton standing up and bowing towards him, its information shown overhead was:

Forest’s Child: Druid

Lin Yi was immediately stunned by this designation.

In the last cycle, it seemed like he had never heard this name; is it a profession? Follow current novᴇls on novel~fire~net

However, Lin Yi quickly reacted, reminding himself of his purpose here, and respectfully asked the other, "Could you tell me, Senior Tomic, what should I do next?"
