Chapter 538: Chapter 538

Binhai City, inside a coffee shop on Binnan Street called ’Slow Down’

Yu Na held a warm cup of coffee, looking through the large floor-to-ceiling window at the white street outside, feeling a myriad of emotions in her heart.

Since she started playing the game, it seemed like it had been a long time since she had sat so leisurely, enjoying a relaxed life . Get full chapters from novel fire.net

Suddenly, the bell on the coffee shop door rang:

The servers inside the coffee shop said in unison:

"Welcome to Slow Down Coffee Shop."

A man pushed open the door and walked in, and immediately a server approached to inquire:

"May I ask how many in your party, sir?"

"I’m looking for someone."

The man stood at the door scanning the room, while Yu Na was staring blankly at the scenery outside the window.

Suddenly, a figure sat down opposite Yu Na:

"What are you thinking about, so deeply lost in thought?"

Yu Na, startled, turned her head to see a handsome man smiling at her.

Yu Na looked at the newcomer:

"I was wondering what kind of person our Feng Hua would be in real life."

At this moment, a server approached and asked:

"Sir, may I get you anything?"

Lin Yi casually replied:

"Just a cup of hot water, thank you."

Even though Lin Yi only asked for a free cup of hot water, the server still smiled and said:

"Alright, it will be just a moment."

After sitting down, Lin Yi checked the time and said to the woman in front of him:

"You have half an hour left, so go ahead, what did you want to see me about?"

Just then, the server brought over a cup of hot water, which Lin Yi took with both hands:

Yu Na, tilting her head, looked at the man who was a legend in the game with a mischievous smile:

"Is this how you respond to an invitation from a beautiful woman in real life?"

Lin Yi shrugged nonchalantly, pointing to the time on his watch:

"You’ve already used up two minutes."

Yu Na was taken aback and then retorted:

"You know you’re not very gentlemanly, right?"

"I’ve been waiting here for more than half an hour for you, alright?"

Lin Yi remained unfazed and said:

"You still have 27 minutes."

Yu Na couldn’t help but roll her eyes:

"Alright, let’s get to the point."

"I want to join your Mercenary Corps, does Feng Hua dare to accept me?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi was stunned and couldn’t quite believe it:

Yu Na smiled slightly:

"Do I look like I’m joking?"

Lin Yi’s brow suddenly furrowed as a Saintess from the Goryeo Battle Zone suddenly expressed the desire to join his Mercenary Corps in the Hua Country War Zone.

If he hadn’t had some prior interactions with Yuna, Lin Yi would have immediately turned her down.

Because whether she was sincere or had ulterior motives, Lin Yi’s perception of Goryeo people, including their players, wasn’t very fond.

Then Lin Yi suddenly remembered something:

"Was the massacre at Tuckery Village your doing?"

But Yu Na, as if anticipating Lin Yi would ask this question, admitted directly:

"That’s right, it was me."

She showed no intention of hiding it.

Lin Yi’s brow furrowed again:

Those were living people!

If this woman in front of him knew that she was killing living, breathing people, would she still be so calm?

But to Lin Yi’s surprise, Yu Na remained composed and said:

"Have you ever thought that if I didn’t do this, you wouldn’t have received that task."

"And if you didn’t receive that task, then the hidden mission in Ussuri City wouldn’t have been triggered."

"As the Demon Race is about to arrive, exchanging the lives of a group of ordinary people for the divine return of a Divine Level powerhouse, which is more worthwhile?"

Lin Yi suddenly widened his eyes, looking at Yu Na, unexpectedly at a loss for words.

And just then, Yu Na continued:

"Moreover, this task also involves the resurrection of Goryeo’s Evil God. If I didn’t do this, someone else would have, and those people wouldn’t have escaped death either."

"If someone else did it, do you think besides me, who else would leave you that [Evil Soul]?"

Lin Yi was suddenly stunned!

Because he never expected that such a seemingly simple task involved so many things.

Then Lin Yi suddenly grasped a key point:

"You said that the [Evil Soul] is related to Goryeo’s Evil God?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Na did not conceal anything:

"Currently, Cui Dongxu from Goryeo is trying to resurrect Goryeo’s Guardian God, the Evil God."

"The energy inside the [Evil Soul] can help the Evil God break the seal."

"Additionally, I’ll give you one more piece of information: the He Clan is also secretly trying to rescue the Orochi God."

"Ultimately, no matter who succeeds, it would be most detrimental to you all."

Finishing these words, Yu Na took a sip of coffee and gently put it down:

"Now do you still think it was wrong for me to kill them?"

Lin Yi suddenly thought of something:

"How did you know it was me who received that task?"

"And if the person who took the task wasn’t me, wouldn’t you have left the [Evil Soul]?"

Yu Na chuckled softly:

"But there are no ’what-ifs’ in this world."

Actually, Yu Na’s words were quite clear, if it wasn’t Lin Yi who took on this task, then she probably wouldn’t have left the [Evil Soul].

But the fact was: it was Lin Yi who accepted the task, and she left it behind, that’s the result.

Lin Yi knew there wasn’t much point in dwelling on it, so he returned to the main topic:

"Why do you want to join my Mercenary Corps?"

When the national war opens, each battle zone’s players have one chance to change their battle zone, just one.

From what she said, this Yu Na was planning to switch to the Hua Country?

Lin Yi found it hard to believe.

Given Yuna’s reputation in Goryeo, why would she need to make a good living in the Hua Country War Zone?

Then Yu Na briefed about what had happened recently, and Lin Yi listened to her offhanded narration with a face full of shock, if what she said was true.

Then Lin Yi somewhat understood her reason for making this decision.

However, to be prudent, Lin Yi didn’t immediately agree but said he would consider it for two days.

As Lin Yi was about to get up and leave, Yu Na suddenly called out to him:

Lin Yi paused, seeing Yu Na, who had just been talking so casually and calmly, suddenly showing an awkward expression.

Under Lin Yi’s gaze, Yu Na hesitated for a moment but then gathered the courage to say:

"Could you lend me a hundred thousand?"

Lin Yi was momentarily caught off guard, and after saying this Yu Na seemed to have come to terms with it, speaking calmly:

"All my and my father’s assets are frozen in the He Clan, this money is to buy a gaming pod."

"Once I have money, I’ll certainly..."

Before Yu Na could finish, Lin Yi suddenly took out a card and placed it on the table:

"This is the living allowance my girlfriend gave me, it has three hundred thousand on it, you can use it, no rush to pay back."

Then Lin Yi went to the cashier to settle the bill, waved at Yu Na:

"I’ll head off first then."

Yu Na stood up and looked at Lin Yi’s departing figure, her eyes slightly red, and said:

Just as he reached the door, Qin Yao suddenly turned around and came to Yu Na’s table:

"Find a place to settle down soon and then log into the game. There’s a Mercenary Corps task tonight."

Yu Na’s beautiful eyes suddenly widened as she looked at Lin Yi:

Lin Yi chuckled and said:

"I hope you can adapt to our Hua Country life."

With that, Lin Yi left the coffee shop and got into a parked car by the roadside.

Ouyang Hao, who was driving, leaned on the car window, looking at the girl in the coffee shop and said:

"Boss Feng, who is she? She even made you specifically come over."

Lin Yi looked at the woman still staring at the card in a daze and smiled:

"Our new teammate, let’s go back."

"Oh, a new teammate!"

Initially, Ouyang Hao didn’t respond but then started the car.

But shortly after driving off, a sudden exclamation came from inside the car:

"What? New teammate!"
