“I’ll do it…” Gu Fei said reluctantly. Yu Tian Shen Ming's monster-luring skills were undoubtedly top-notch. If he went to the front, what would be left for him? Wouldn't he just have to follow the girls and cast spells? How boring would that be? How monotonous? How utterly lacking in skill?

But Yu Tian Shen Ming was eager to repay the favor and insisted on doing it. Gu Fei repeatedly said that he loved luring monsters, but Yu Tian Shen Ming took it as mere politeness. As the two argued, Piao Liu was extremely anxious. He had spent all night yesterday researching the level 50 training area in Cloud City, testing from one corner to another. Finally, he had selected a spot where he could estimate Gu Fei's spell damage, but then Yu Tian Shen Ming had appeared out of nowhere, causing him great frustration.

“You two stop arguing. Just go lure them together,” Piao Liu said, trying to smooth things over. As long as Gu Fei lured the monsters, his goal could be achieved.

This suggestion could have been accepted immediately if anyone else had made it, but because it was Piao Liu who spoke, Yu Tian Shen Ming glared and said, “What do you mean? Can’t I handle it alone? Do you think I don’t know how to play an archer?”

“Of course not,” Piao Liu quickly replied. He swore to the heavens that he had absolutely no intention of mocking Yu Tian Shen Ming this time.

Unfortunately, that was how Yu Tian Shen Ming interpreted it. He angrily roared at Gu Fei, “Qian Li, step aside! I’ll lure all the monsters here!”

Helpless, Gu Fei could only retreat to the side, offering a wry smile to Piao Liu.

Piao Liu felt so frustrated he wanted to vomit blood. He truly regretted trying to mediate, as it had only made Yu Tian Shen Ming more determined and forceful. So much for the wisdom of the ages; even the wisest can make mistakes.

But then he thought that there would be plenty of time in the future. Yu Tian Shen Ming wouldn't be in the party luring monsters every day, and he would eventually see Gu Fei's spell damage. Piao Liu immediately felt relieved and said with a smile, “Then let's begin!”

The new training spot was indeed much easier than yesterday's. Even if Gu Fei and Piao Liu, with their super-high spell damage, didn't attack, the girls could still reduce the monsters to a pathetic state. Sometimes, with a burst of good luck, they would all deal maximum spell damage and wipe them out completely.

Gu Fei threw a few spells into the circle, feeling utterly bored. He was completely dispensable! And he had to eat fruit after every four waves, which was so annoying. Just as he was feeling down, Luo Luo approached him. Gu Fei looked at her very warily. “What?”

“Look how nervous you are,” Luo Luo said with a smile, raising her hand to cast a healing spell. Gu Fei reached out and pressed her hand down. “Don’t waste it. Use it where it’s most needed…”

“You’re holding my hand,” Luo Luo said.

Gu Fei smiled and withdrew his hand. He didn't feel embarrassed. He had intentionally held Luo Luo's hand to stop her from casting the healing spell. In this day and age, what did it matter if a man and woman touched hands? Only those with something to hide would care.

Luo Luo was about to say something with a half-smile when she suddenly heard Gu Fei shout, “Who’s over there?”

“What?” Luo Luo looked back, but saw nothing.

“Someone’s behind the tree,” Gu Fei said as he walked towards it. His presence in the training party wasn't affecting anything anyway.

Luo Luo looked in the direction Gu Fei was pointing. There was only a tree a few hundred meters away.

“There’s no one there,” Luo Luo muttered as she followed. She was also feeling like a nonentity today. Luring monsters 10 levels higher than oneself was usually quite dangerous. Yesterday, Liu Xia had relied on Luo Luo's healing spells. But today, the monster-lurers were all experts, and they were ranged attackers. Luo Luo stared at them intently, but didn't see a single opportunity to use her spells. Bored, she had tried to tease Gu Fei, but was stopped. Sigh, it was all caused by boredom.

As the two ran towards the big tree, one in front of the other, the others glanced over. But they quickly turned back as if nothing had happened, each with an ambiguous smile on their face, pretending they hadn't seen anything.

“Wait for me!” Luo Luo was still calling out.

Gu Fei stopped. “What are you doing here?”

“What if there’s danger?” Luo Luo said.

“That's why I'm asking what you're doing here,” Gu Fei said. The talk of danger wasn't just scaremongering. Everyone knew that there was a group of people in Cloud City who PKed to steal equipment. Now everyone preferred to team up for training rather than training solo. It had to be said that they were partly responsible for this.

“I’m here to use healing spells on you!” Luo Luo said with a smile.

Helpless, Gu Fei let her be and slowed down to match Luo Luo's speed. The two slowly arrived at the tree. They saw half a body sticking out from behind the tree, lying on the ground with its back to them. Judging from the long hair over the shoulders and the figure, it was clearly a woman.

So, what he had seen earlier was just the fleeting glimpse of this person falling to the ground. Gu Fei muttered to himself, while Luo Luo had already bent down and patted the person's shoulder, saying, "Hello?" She then leaned over to look at the person's face and said to Gu Fei, "It's a beautiful woman. You have sharp eyes."

"..."

"Hey, what's wrong? Wake up!" The beauty didn't react to the pats, and Luo Luo became a little anxious. She grabbed her shoulder and shook her hard twice.

The body was turned over, and Gu Fei froze as soon as he saw the person's face.

Mang Mang de Mang Mang, the female devil who made countless people in Yueye City grind their teeth. Liu Xia and the others had been forced to leave their homes, mostly because of her.

When Gu Fei and the others left Yueye City, the all-out war between the Qianchen guild and the other guilds in Yueye City had only just begun. Gu Fei hadn't cared about what happened afterward. Now, more than a month had passed, and the sudden appearance of Mang Mang de Mang Mang here made Gu Fei suddenly want to know what the final outcome of that war had been.

After being shaken so violently by Luo Luo, Mang Mang de Mang Mang finally opened her eyes. She looked confused at first, but gradually came to her senses. She sat up from the ground and looked at the two of them. "You..."

"You... were you asleep?" Luo Luo looked speechless. She thought something had happened to this girl.

Mang Mang de Mang Mang nodded. "I haven't logged off for too long. I wanted to rest behind the tree, but I accidentally fell asleep."

"What are you doing?" Luo Luo asked strangely.

"I'm looking for Cloud City. Is this near Cloud City? Are you players from Cloud City? Great, I've finally met someone." Mang Mang de Mang Mang stood up from the ground with a look of surprise. She first spoke to Luo Luo, but when she said "you," her gaze subconsciously shifted towards Gu Fei. Once it landed on Gu Fei, it didn't move away. It lingered on him for a long time.

The black mask, the black mage robe, the purple longsword with a black halo...

Such a figure was an indelible memory for Mang Mang de Mang Mang.

However, Gu Fei wasn't wearing a mask at this time, and he had put away the Dark Night Flowing Light Sword the moment he recognized her. Mang Mang de Mang Mang couldn't make a judgment based on just one piece of clothing. After all, black mage robes were no longer rare.

Gu Fei didn't say anything, just listened to Luo Luo talking to her. "Are you going to Cloud City?"

Mang Mang de Mang Mang finally shifted her gaze from Gu Fei and nodded to Luo Luo. "Yes, I came from Yueye City. I don't know the way. After passing the Wulong Mountains, I didn't know which way to go. I've been wandering around this area for a long time and haven't met anyone. I'm only level 30, so I don't dare to go anywhere recklessly. Luckily, I met you."

"Ah, you're only level 30..." Luo Luo exclaimed. "This is a level 50 training area!"

"Yes, so I don't dare to move. I have to be careful with every step. I haven't recorded my location in the safe zone of Cloud City yet. If I die, I'll be sent back to Yueye City," Mang Mang de Mang Mang said.

Currently, the average player level was between 38 and 40. Level 30 was basically a new player who hadn't been in the game for many days. Mang Mang de Mang Mang was also a veteran player from the open beta. She was already level 30 a month ago, and she was still level 30 now. The outcome of the war in Yueye City was already obvious. She hadn't been able to level up even once in a month. It seemed that Mang Mang de Mang Mang had been having a very hard time.

She looked like she hadn't logged off for a long time. Her eyes were red and her face was haggard. Luo Luo felt very sympathetic and took Mang Mang de Mang Mang's hand, saying, "We're training over there. You can come with us. We'll take you with us when we return to the city later."

"Thank you so much," Mang Mang de Mang Mang nodded.

Just as they were about to set off, they suddenly heard a voice shout, "There she is!"

The three of them looked in the direction of the voice and saw several people running down the hillside, heading straight for them.

Mang Mang de Mang Mang's face turned pale. She sighed and said, "They're here for me."

"Who are they?" Luo Luo's gossip soul was burning at all times.

"They're probably people from Yueye City who want to kill me... I have a lot of enemies. They've been chasing me ever since our guild was defeated. I didn't expect them to chase me all the way here," Mang Mang de Mang Mang said.

Luo Luo looked at Gu Fei, asking him to make the decision. After all, if they were going to help, Gu Fei would definitely be the one to take action. She, as a priest, couldn't play any decisive role.

But Gu Fei didn't react for a long time. To help those in need was a chance that Gu Fei had been looking forward to for a long time. But the facts were always so ironic. Why did Mang Mang de Mang Mang need help... This woman wasn't a good character either, although she looked quite miserable right now. Right, didn't she have a husband? Where was that guy called Yin Yue?

While Gu Fei was still hesitating, the people running down the hillside had already rushed up to them. They paused when they saw the three of them.

"It's you?" One of them and Luo Luo spoke at the same time.

Gu Fei looked up and scanned them. Damn, these guys weren't good people either.

The one in the lead was Bu Xiao, who had disappeared for a while.
