Chapter 67: Chapter 64 Claire? Selvia
Blood Rose Studio, a famous beauty studio in China, with legal representative Zhou Qing, game ID: Bloodrose Rosa, headquartered on Green Lake Park Road, Shendong City. A non-profit organization. Being a non-profit means they’re just playing for fun and never intended to make money.
Yet sometimes, the less you care about the god of wealth, the more they shamelessly come knocking, licking the boots of the beauties. Therefore, the advertising endorsement income of their studio is eye-wateringly high. Under their wing are several low-level gold farming studios in Shendong City, dedicated to grinding gold for the beauties.
The selling point of Blood Rose Studio is simple—pretty professional gamers, balancing idol status with skill. Thus, Bloodrose Rosa firmly implemented the strategy of focusing on skillful beauties. If there’s any regret, it would be that the studio hasn’t produced a super beauty player of global fame like Star Guild’s Bu Feiyan.
One from their ranks could suppress a group from Bloodrose, and that’s truly a vexing matter.
With the global launch of Heroic Creation Era, Blood Rose Studio, of course, switched all their operations to the new game immediately.
With a whole bunch of subordinate gold farming studios supporting them, they went for the high-end path without hesitation. What’s high-end? Magic is high-end! And undoubtedly, the high-end magic lies within the neutral power of the Mage Academy of the Seven Cities Alliance. However, joining it is a mystery. Not wanting to waste time, Blood Rose Studio went the nun route.
Clergy are categorized into upper, middle, and lower tiers—rural priests, and the priests and bishops of the church are nowhere near the same level. But within the church’s various clerical systems, there’s a special and important one, nuns! For men, they are ascetics.
Nuns are the most devout believers who devote their whole being to God, often selected from orphaned girls without relatives. They rarely participate in any charitable activities and lead a life that, to ordinary people, seems almost prisoner-like. But it’s because of this lifestyle that they have the time and energy for spiritual practice. Although their powers might not be the strongest due to innate limitations, without a doubt their overall standard symbolizes the high-end level of the church. Compared to ascetics, who, as men, have many more temptations to overcome in the process of cultivation, ascetics are truly not on par with nuns.
There are two types of nuns: lifelong nuns and fostered nuns; only lifelong nuns can learn the highest-end Divine Arts and be closest to God. Fostered nuns are the young girls who were put under the church’s care by sailors and soldiers who might perish at any time, just to get a meal and do odd jobs.
Since day one of server launch, Blood Rose targeted the Holy Mother Monastery. The Lionheart Empire has many such monasteries, but Bloodrose set her sights on the one in Saint Paul Port, mainly aiming at the massive commercial capabilities of the empire’s largest seaport. Bloodrose’s ambition is to monopolize Saint Paul Port!
The whole studio, a bunch of beauties with both brains and bravery, made significant progress in their strategy for the monastery. Several senior executives of the studio have successfully infiltrated the monastery and become externs. Entry to the monastery means learning high-end Divine Arts not available in regular Skill Books, and hiring special heroes, like Nuns, who are difficult for ordinary people to recruit. Of course, more secrets await their discovery.
Naturally, the cost of becoming an extern is the prohibition of leaving at will, living a nun-like prisoner’s life. For players, this is absolutely a grueling issue, but for the beauties, not so much.
And it was just three days ago that a member named Bloodrose Qiqi discovered a magical pamphlet in a gap in the library’s brick wall. This was no coincidence but an inevitability; the work of the studio’s members within the monastery was to thoroughly search for mechanisms, secret doors, and hidden quests.
Whose secret from which era was exposed in this pamphlet!
—”Desire is innate and comes from the depths of the heart. Suppressing it forcefully leads to a twisted mind and wandering down the wrong path. Desires need to be released in an appropriate way!”
The content was so explosive it made all the female players of the Blood Rose Studio blush with embarrassment!
Being the ‘big sister’, Bloodrose didn’t care about any heretical nonsense. She made a decisive call: “Develop it fully!”
So, the entire studio followed the instructions in the pamphlet, coming to the storage room, the only place in the monastery where they wouldn’t be disturbed, to secretly conduct rituals every game night. The rituals had been going on for one game month, which is three days in reality. These three days had been tough on the beauties, as they took turns with little rest. After all, the player’s powers were too weak, making the rituals intense and time-consuming.
…….
Now, all their spellcasting rituals were witnessed by Da Fei. This feeling was like peeping at girls showering in the women’s restroom, very thrilling and exciting! But with such a crucial operation and so much effort spent, Da Fei couldn’t afford any unexpected setbacks by letting them ruin it. He was torn.
As for going out and greeting them? Shit, a man like me would be a sure target for disposal, right? Don’t be foolish! Not to mention, to them, a regular player like me with tens of thousands of fans and wealth, I’m just nothing.
Soon, a lookout player came in to report at the door: “They’re coming for inspection!”
Everyone immediately stopped the ritual, covered the Array with random objects, and quietly left the room.
There must be a ghost! After they left, Da Fei cautiously came out from his hiding spot, ready to uncover the objects and examine the Array on the ground but thought better of it. At the end of the day, these things required a quest item to handle, right? He didn’t understand it and couldn’t achieve anything anyway. Big studios and high-end players have their ways of playing, without disrupting the order.
Another new day began.
The backyard buzzed with activity, and some female workers began to move in and out of the storage room. Da Fei was even more careful, hiding in the shadows, not daring to make the slightest noise.
The carriage sounds started, and the old lady came again.
“Anna, is this something you dropped?”
“No, I don’t have such a thing.”
“Shariel, is this something you dropped?”
“No, Lady Tabia.”
Another day without any findings, the old woman returned home. Da Fei started to feel anxious; deep down, there’s always a hint of unease towards an uncertain target. At night, the female gamers of Bloodrose stealthily came again, and judging from their practiced manner, it seemed like they were here every day?
Another in-game day passed, and the old woman still had no findings. Although only three days have passed in the game and just an afternoon in reality, Da Fei was beginning to feel restless. At night, the beauties came and went again.
Endure!
On the fourth day, the old woman still hadn’t found anything. But it seemed like the female gamers had made significant progress; the Array they surrounded burst into a dazzling pink radiance!
The beauties cheered in the darkness: “Success is near! Tomorrow night will surely be a success!”
“Great, everyone should head back and replenish your Mana. Tomorrow night we’ll settle it in one go!”
Holy crap! What are you girls up to, don’t mess up my operation. The thought of the high-end players certainly scheming something big, likely involving projects worth millions, and his own progress—despite being a Master—being stalled, twisted feelings of envy, jealousy, and hatred filled Da Fei’s heart!
On the fifth day, the long-awaited miracle finally happened!
“Claire, is this something you dropped?”
“!!!”
The old woman, excited and thrilled, said, “Claire? This must be something you dropped, right? Come here, come to this side, I found it here! Come and recognize it!”
Made it inside! The old woman dragged in a beautiful, blonde Little Nun dressed in a white Nun Robe! As she entered the door, still dazed, the whole dim storeroom seemed to fill with radiance, and the golden glow beneath her feet proclaimed that she was indeed a Hero!
Found her! Finally found her! She’s really a Hero! In that instant, Da Fei was so excited he almost leaped out from his hiding spot!
As soon as she entered, the old woman immediately whispered into the still-recovering Little Nun’s ear: “Selvia?”
The Little Nun nodded in shock.
Oh yeah! Fully confirmed! Tears streamed down Da Fei’s face! A nun in a white robe, ah, she must hold a high Divine Position! Her strength is definitely outstanding! It’s really been worth watching over her these many days and nights!
The old woman let out a long sigh of relief and quietly handed the flute to her, whispering, “This is yours, quickly keep it safe. It’s not convenient to speak now, come here quietly tonight, without letting anyone notice. Someone important wants to meet you to discuss something critical! No matter who you see or what you talk about, don’t be shocked, you got it?”
The Little Nun’s eyes blazed with an impassioned light as she nodded emphatically.
The old woman chuckled, “Alright, go back to your tasks quickly!” After saying that, she laughed heartily while pushing the Little Nun out the door, shouting, “Let’s all pull together, guys!”
Da Fei also heaved a long sigh of relief. From her recent expression, she might think her father is still alive? If so, I can avoid the most troublesome step of hiring a hero and just kidnap her directly! The reason for warning her not to be surprised was of course for fear a man suddenly appearing would cause her to scream.
Da Fei looked forward to the arrival of the evening with great anticipation!
Damn it! When will she come tonight? What kind of mess are those girl gamers up to this evening? If they bump into each other, won’t it ruin everything?
Caught in a tangled mess of thoughts, evening arrived. And the worst-case scenario finally happened; those damn Bloodrose women couldn’t wait and came over as soon as it got dark! They even arrived earlier than the previous nights!
—Ah pfft! Da Fei sprayed a mouthful of blood! I even bought a bag last year!
