Since the system became my girlfriend

"Good brother! No need for further words! Let's set off!" After Su Rui called him "big brother," the city lord of Daril patted him on the shoulder.

"Is it just the two of us?" Su Rui asked.

“No! I have already had Ryan assemble the troops!” said Lord Daryl, Ryan being his high-ranking warlord.

"Well... alright..." Now that things had come to this, Su Rui knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, it would be useless. Moreover, he also wanted to avenge Marshal Salo, so he joined Lord Daril's team.

When Su Rui and Daryl left the city lord's mansion, a large group of soldiers had already gathered at the gate.

"Let's go!" With a wave of his hand, Lord Daryl set off.

"Holy crap! What is the city lord going to do?!"

"So many troops? Are they on a mission?"

"Who knows! Let's follow them and see!"

"Look! There's actually a player inside!"

"Holy crap! Could it be that a hidden quest has been triggered?!"

"A hidden mission? Possibly!"

"With so many soldiers mobilized and the involvement of Lord Dalier, this mission must be extraordinary!"

……

Unlike the Royal City, Xuanwu City is a proper main city with hundreds of thousands of players. The city is so crowded that it's practically shoulder to shoulder. With so many players gathered here, how could it not attract attention when so many soldiers swagger out of the city?

Moreover, these players quickly discovered Su Rui among the NPCs, and everyone immediately began to suspect that Su Rui had accepted some hidden quest, and it had to be a high-level hidden quest.

However, only Su Rui himself knew that he had no hidden missions and there would be no special rewards for this expedition. He and Lord Daril had only one purpose for this operation: to avenge the death of Marshal Salo!

The army quickly left Xuanwu City. The players dared not get too close, but many followed far behind.

Just as the army was leaving the city, Su Rui's friend list suddenly started flashing. He opened it and found a message from Tang Seng, who loves Pantene shampoo.

"What's wrong?" Su Rui asked.

"Brother, did you get some awesome mission?" Tang Seng asked.

"Why are you suddenly asking this?" Su Rui asked.

"Hey, with such a commotion, it's hard not to see it!" Tang Seng said with a smile.

"There's really no mission. You guys probably just came along to watch the show." Su Rui wasn't lying.

"Is that so? Shall we go take a look?" Tang Seng asked on behalf of the other members of the mercenary group. They had all received the news and knew that this matter was mostly related to Su Rui.

“Come on over if you want to watch. There shouldn’t be any danger, but there won’t be any benefits either. If you want to watch the show, come on over. If you’re not interested, then just go and level up.” Su Rui said.

"Let's go take a look then. After all, such a wonderful plot is probably not common!" Tang Seng said, referring to his Pantene shampoo.

"Okay, but don't get too close, or you might get accidentally hurt!" Su Rui cautioned.

"No problem!" Tang Seng nodded, then suddenly asked, "By the way, my brother, why did you change your name?"

Su Rui's name has now changed from "It's Me" to "It's Me Salo," so anyone who has him as a friend can find out by looking at their friend list.

"I did a mission, so I added my surname to the end of my name," Su Rui explained.

"Wow! Is that even possible?" Tang Seng, after a moment of stunned silence, exclaimed.

"Who knows? I discovered it by accident." Su Rui didn't go into the details of the mission.

"Can you hide it? After all, this isn't the name you chose when you entered the game; it was imposed by the system. Shouldn't it be the same as the title?" Tang Seng, who loves Pantene shampoo, said.

"Huh? I'll give it a try!" Su Rui hadn't really thought about this before, but now that Tang Seng reminded him, he immediately opened his attribute panel.

"Hide!" Sure enough, Su Rui actually found the hidden button after his name.

After selecting to hide the file extension, Su Rui's name returned to normal.

"Big Brother!" Su Rui called out to Lord Daril after concealing his name.

"What's wrong, brother?" Lord Daryl turned around, his expression unchanged, as if Su Rui hiding his suffix name would not have any effect on him.

"Big brother, do you see anything different about me?" Su Rui asked.

"No? What's wrong?" Lord Daryl asked.

"It's alright! Let's keep going!" Su Rui smiled, it seemed that disabling the file extension wouldn't have any effect.

However, Su Rui did not give up trying. Since the file extension had an option to be turned off, it should be effective. So Su Rui started walking towards the back of the line.

"Young Marshal!"

"Young Marshal!"

The soldiers at the front of the column had seen Su Rui before, so they all saluted him. But when Su Rui walked to the back of the column, although the soldiers still saluted him, their form of address changed.

"My Lord Count!"

"Your Excellency..."

"Hmm?!" Su Rui frowned. Although these soldiers were respectful to him, you could tell that their respect was not genuine. This was completely different from the soldiers who had called him "Young Marshal" before.

"Could it be..." Su Rui's mind raced, and soon he figured out the difference.

It was obvious that when Su Rui chose to display his suffix name, the soldiers and ordinary NPCs could immediately tell that he was Salo's adopted son, and then transferred their respect and worship for Salo to him.

However, this admiration and worship were mostly concentrated among the lower-ranking soldiers and ordinary NPCs. The bureaucrats and generals were not very interested in Su Rui's identity as the son of Salo.

If Su Rui chooses to disable his name extension, the NPCs who have met him before and know his identity as the Son of Salo will treat him the same as before, and his behavior will not change because he hides his name extension.

However, those NPCs who didn't know that Su Rui was Salo's adopted son wouldn't immediately treat him as Salo's son after meeting him; they would only treat him as the Earl.

After figuring this out, Su Rui decided to temporarily disable the suffix, otherwise he would attract too much attention when he went out.
