forget it. Even though it’s not as much as I thought, it’s still a shocking amount of wealth. One should learn to be content.
With the money, li xiaonian immediately went on a shopping spree.
Clothes, interstellar phone, and a pile of soul crystals to fill his stomach.
After settling all this, li xiaonian went straight to a high-end hotel and booked a top-notch room. Due to his status, he could only stay there for a month. Otherwise, he would have booked it for ten years in one go.
One of the reasons for living in a high-class area was that he did not lack money. Other than that, he did so to get in touch with the people at the top. If he was lucky, he might get to know one or two big shots, and through them, he could meet the Queen of the Holy Light.
He took out his interstellar phone, entered red fiend’s phone number, and sent a message. He sent his room number to the other party.
Everything was sorted out.
Li xiaonian pressed the service button.
A moment later, a sweet-looking cat waiter appeared. Hello, Sir. I’m your exclusive service staff, blue cat. For the next month, blue cat will serve you wholeheartedly.
With such a high room fee, they naturally enjoyed high-quality service.
blue cat, tell me, with my situation, is there any way for me to obtain permanent residence in holy light City? ”
The blue cat thought for a while and said,”Sir, to obtain permanent residence, you need to be a fifth rank warrior-general. If you meet this condition, it will be easy to obtain permanent residence.” Second, you have a relative who is living here. With the relative’s guarantee, you can write an application form and apply to the population administration. The success rate of the application is uncertain and depends on the situation. Third, you have a stable job here with a company or enterprise vouching for you. Such jobs are rare and the competition is very strong.”
Li xiaonian furrowed his brows and asked,’can’t we use money to solve it? For example, I can donate a sum of money to holy light City in exchange for permanent residence.”
“It was possible 160 years ago, but not now,” the blue cat explained.
“Why?”
The blue cat hesitated for a moment, but still answered truthfully, ” because of the influx of too many rich people, holy light City has become crowded. For this reason, Her Majesty the Queen has changed the rules. Her Majesty said that strength is everything. The outsiders that holy light City takes in are either strong enough or have a skill.
“Alright, I got it. You may leave.” Li xiaonian rubbed his head, feeling a headache.
The blue cat bowed slightly and left the room.
Li xiaonian lowered his head and looked at the shadow that was sealed in his chest. He muttered, if Xiao Ya didn’t possess the lightning rod, with it, there would at least be one more person to discuss.
A month seemed long, but it was actually very short.
Li xiaonian wanted to enter star field, but after some thought, he finally turned on his computer and searched for a job that would allow him to stay for a long time.
He set the condition as permanent residence rights and searched for handsome jobs.
[ aerospace: hiring Captain ]:
[ requirements: fourth level battle general, has a hundred years of work experience, skilled in crisis management, has a certain level of leadership, has a straightforward personality, and can work hard. ]

......
Li xiaonian scrolled through the screen. The more he looked, the darker his face became.
A job that could provide permanent residence rights required at least a hundred years of work experience. He was just a kid in his twenties, and he didn’t meet any of the requirements.
“What’s my specialty?”
Li xiaonian fell into deep thought.
After thinking about it, he suddenly realized that he was really a good-for-nothing.
forget it, forget it. My specialty should be gaming. I should just enter the game and earn a lot of domain coins.
Li xiaonian couldn’t help but sigh.
“Eh, no, playing games is also my specialty.”
Thinking of this, li xiaonian added the keyword ‘star field’ to the web search.
There was really a related job.
Li xiaonian completely ignored the gold-farming players and combat professions.
After a while, he finally found a job that was barely suitable for him.
[ breeze Guild: recruiting blacksmiths ]
[ requirements: beginner blacksmith or above ]
[ job requirement: submit three or more pieces of bronze equipment every month. The Guild will purchase them at market price. ]

“Basic blacksmith? with my current situation, I should be able to level up in a short time.”
It had been a year since he had entered star field.
In this one year, apart from blacksmithing, he was still blacksmithing. With Xiao Ya’s help and the help of his eye technique, he became more and more skilled in blacksmithing.
He could feel that he wasn’t far from being a beginner blacksmith.
Thinking of this, li xiaonian took out his interstellar mobile phone and dialed the other party’s contact information.
......
On the other side.
In a certain corner of holy light City, the headquarters of the breeze Guild.
Cai Jiaqi and the other members of the Guild were having a meeting.
Cai Jiaqi looked at the Guild’s latest report, and her expression became more and more gloomy. With a ‘bang’, the report slammed heavily on the table, and she couldn’t help but complain, what the hell is this? our breeze Guild has more than 800000 core members, with an average level of 60. There’s no need to talk about our overall strength. The key problem is that there are only 3009 pieces of bronze equipment among the 800000 people. Without sufficient equipment to support them, their development would be severely limited. This problem has been going on for dozens of years, and it still hasn’t been solved. Don’t just stand there and do nothing. Hurry up and think of a solution.”
Everyone’s faces turned bitter.
big sister, it’s not that we don’t work hard, but we really can’t do anything. We’ve recruited a lot of blacksmith apprentices, but we can’t recruit basic blacksmiths unless we put in a lot of money.
that’s right. A real blacksmith can earn a handsome return by forging two to three weapons every month. They don’t lack money at all, and they’re even more unwilling to join a guild and bear the restrictions.
At this moment ...
A short man raised his hand and said weakly, ” “Big sister, I contacted a beginner blacksmith before, but the conditions he offered were ridiculous. He asked for a monthly salary of 10000 domain coins, and we have to buy the equipment at market price. Not only that, but the other party also proposed that he must have a strong team of bodyguards to protect him 24 hours a day.”
pfft ... A monthly salary of 10000 domain coins. Is that guy crazy about money? with that money, he can directly buy equipment. Isn’t it good? ”
“Yaksha, among all the blacksmith apprentices we’ve trained, is there anyone with a little bit of talent that can advance to the beginner level?”
Yaksha’s mouth twitched. No. To put it bluntly, the blacksmith apprentices that breeze recruited are all crooked. They can only forge white equipment. There are very few equipment with good attributes.
As long as one put in enough time, they could basically reach the level of a blacksmith apprentice. However, it was definitely a huge threshold to become a standard blacksmith.
After all, a standard blacksmith not only needed sufficient strength, but also a huge amount of spiritual power. Perception was the most important.
With so many conditions, as long as one of them was not met, it would be impossible to remove the impurities from the refined iron.
......
Just as everyone was in the midst of an intense discussion.
Suddenly, the receptionist Le Le covered the microphone and ran into the meeting room excitedly. big sister, someone is calling to inquire about the blacksmith recruitment we posted on the recruitment website.
“Really?”
Cai Jiaqi was instantly excited.
The crowd couldn’t help but feel excited.
big sister, you have to be steady. It’s up to you whether the Guild can have an official blacksmith. If it’s possible, it doesn’t matter if you bleed a little. As long as we have enough high-end weapons, we can earn back the money we lost.
Caijiaqi nodded her head, indicating for everyone to be quiet.
“Hello, how are you?” Cai Jiaqi suppressed her excitement.
Hello, may I ask if the recruitment for holy light city’s internal recruitment network is true? if I join the breeze Guild, can you help me apply for permanent residence rights in holy light City? ” Li xiaonian made his appeal clear.
Permanent residence? An outsider?
It was good to be an outsider. The Guild just so happened to have two permanent residence slots.
After Cai Jiaqi calmed herself down, she said firmly,”That’s right. As long as you meet the requirements, we can help you settle the permanent residence rights in holy light City. May I ask where you are now? If you can, I hope you can come to the headquarters of the breeze Guild. We can discuss the specific treatment.”
Afraid that li xiaonian would run away, Cai Jiaqi hurriedly added,”We can arrange a car to pick you up.”
Li xiaonian was relieved to receive an affirmative answer.”It’s like this, I haven’t advanced to a basic blacksmith yet. I’ll definitely be able to advance in two months at the latest. Can you leave me a spot in your Guild’s recruitment? In addition, I will only be staying in holy light City for a month. Can you help me think of a way to increase my stay time?”
The call was on speaker mode, so dozens of people in the meeting room heard it.
Especially when li xiaonian showed that he wasn’t even a beginner blacksmith yet. Everyone was instantly stunned and looked at each other, muttering in low voices.
“I was happy for nothing. I didn’t expect him to be just an apprentice. He’s trying to get us to help him increase his stay in holy light City.”
“Liar, he’s definitely a liar.”
Cai Jiaqi’s face turned black, and she was a little indecisive. Covering the microphone, she looked at the Yaksha and said,”How credible are his words?”
Yaksha was a blacksmith apprentice himself. At the same time, he also managed the blacksmith apprentices in the Guild, so he was the most familiar with this aspect.
Yaksha said slowly, ” blacksmithing techniques are the same as cultivation. There are only success and failure. It seems that you are about to succeed, but you don’t know that it is still far away. The core of advancing to basic blacksmith is to remove one of the elemental impurities in refined iron. It needs to be done to the extreme, and the difficulty is very high. According to the current data, out of 10000 blacksmith apprentices, at most only one can advance to blacksmith.”
The meaning behind his words was obvious. The person who called was not trustworthy.
Advancing to a blacksmith was too difficult, so difficult that it made people flinch.
In the early stages of the game, many people were ambitious and wanted to raise their secondary profession to the highest level. They fantasized about counting money until their hands cramped.
In the end, after in-depth understanding, he had wasted five to six years, seven to eight years, and even decades before he finally gave up.
Sub-professions had low entry requirements, but the price was a huge waste of time.
Until now, the players who learned the sub-profession had become rational. They would only choose it after careful consideration. The number of people was more than a hundred times less than before.
After listening to the Yaksha’s explanation, Cai Jiaqi spoke into the microphone in an official tone,”Sir, I’m very sorry. Our Guild is recruiting a beginner blacksmith and above. You’re only a blacksmith apprentice, so you don’t meet the requirements.”
Beep, beep, beep ...
Li xiaonian’s heart sank when the call was hung up. “Are blacksmiths already so worthless? Well, since someone is willing to offer the benefits of living as a blacksmith, I don’t believe that I can’t ‘sell’ myself when I’m promoted to a blacksmith and put up the requirements for the job on the internet.”
Thinking of this ...
Li xiaonian eagerly entered the game.
Ding ...
The system said, [ you have entered the star field. Have a good time. ]
It was still the original blacksmith shop.
After a year of training, he was no longer a rookie.
Batch after batch of new people had already left netherworld village, heading to a wider area to develop.
“Little ya, I’m going to focus on forging a bronze weapon next. I’ll need your help.”
“Alright,” he said.
Suddenly, li xiaonian thought of something and said, ” “Little ya, I’ve already made a replacement for the shadow Star Card. There’s only 990 million star dollars in it. As a shareholder of the universe bank, isn’t this a little too little?”
“Only 990 million?”
“That shouldn’t be ...” Xiao Ya was stunned.
After saying this, Xiaoya fell silent.
After hearing Xiaoya’s tone, li xiaonian seemed to have thought of something. He said in a deep voice, ” Xiao Ya, tell me the truth. Is the previous Captain of the shadow still alive? ”
Xiao Ya had once said that only Xiao Ya and the previous owner knew about this Star Card. Since the balance of the star Card did not match, the only possibility was that the owner of the shadow was still alive. Otherwise, it would be inexcusable.
“I’m not sure,”
“......”
Xiaoya didn’t want to say more, and Li xiaonian felt a little sad.
To be honest, he didn’t know how to face his previous master.
Return the shadow?
He didn’t feel bad for returning the shadow, but he couldn’t bear to leave Xiao Ya. All these years, Xiao Ya had been by his side all the time. With her around, he felt at ease and had become dependent on her.
Apart from that, without Xiao Ya and a powerful helper, his growth speed would not be so efficient and fast.
Li xiaonian pondered for a long time.
Although he was reluctant, he could only smile bitterly. Xiao Ya, if you want to return to your original master, I won’t stop you. So, you don’t need to feel burdened.
After spending so much time with Xiao Ya, no matter how stupid he was, he could tell that Xiao Ya was not simple. Xiao Ya could not be just a simple intelligent program.
In addition, Xiao Ya had been with the original owner for more than a thousand years, while he had only been with Xiao Ya for a few years.
A melon that was forcefully twisted would not be sweet, especially since he had long treated Xiao Ya as a family member. He could not forcefully restrict Xiao Ya.
“I’m sorry, Captain.” Xiaoya said embarrassedly.
