Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 78 The Little Loli's Immortal Guardian

The mass deaths of players and NPCs in Dragon Mall have finally drawn attention.

"Where's Daodao? It used to come out for a stroll every day, but it hasn't been seen for several days now. Quickly check if anything has happened at the company that we don't know about recently. Also, take some time to check if Daodao's original body is still there?"

The middle-aged man, with a large belly and a furrowed brow, was worried because Daodao had suddenly disappeared during the last important company meeting. He didn't know what had happened, and there had been no response to his attempts to contact him. Now, he hadn't been able to see Daodao for several days. The middle-aged man was worried and finally had no choice but to take the last measure.

Daodao's true form is firmly sealed beneath the company. Besides being heavily guarded, there are many mechanisms that even a middle-aged person would struggle to open. Only the original founders of the company know about these mechanisms. Daodao usually appears in the company, and they don't often visit Daodao's true form. However, Daodao hasn't appeared for several days in a row, which makes them suspect that Daodao's true form might have been stolen. If this possibility is confirmed, then things will be very serious.

"Remember to hurry. The Dragon Mall issue wasn't part of the original plan we gave Daodao. Now that problems have arisen and players are starting to protest, we need to contact Daodao as soon as possible to understand the cause and effect of the matter and then discuss a solution!"

The middle-aged man tapped the table, and the company's vice president sitting in front of him nodded, got up, and left to get on with his business.

The middle-aged man was left alone in the office. He rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache coming on. Everything in the game depended on Daodao, but Daodao had nothing to do with them. To be honest, they were just the first ones to find Daodao, nothing more. There was no connection between them, and Daodao didn't ask for anything. So Daodao could leave at any time. Once it left, the large company that had been built up with it would collapse instantly, and all the effort he had put into it would vanish in an instant.

"The consequences are truly terrifying... So, Daodao, please don't do anything foolish..."

The middle-aged man closed his eyes, concealing the complex emotions within them. He muttered that the past few days had indeed been too abnormal, and that he should wait for the results before making any further comments.

[Can I Return at Dusk: Are all the people at the game company dead?! Can anyone step forward and explain to me what my account did to bother you? Yesterday I died 80 times! My account, which was level 320, plummeted to level 173. A minor bump or scratch—a scrape in real life—kills me in the game! Can anyone explain this to me? What happened to the promise of everything being realistic? Did you eat that up?]

[I don't even know what to say: Sigh~ I'm really disappointed with this game. Levels aren't a big deal, I'm not high level, but I recently had amazing luck and got a high-grade, growth-type spirit weapon. I was planning to rely on it to level up and dominate the game, but the spirit weapon dropped on my first death! Now it's probably in someone else's pocket. Give me back my spirit weapon!!!]

[Artsy Gentleman: Um, just passing through Dragon Soul City, just checking things out. Is the problem really that serious? I think we should take precautions early, so that something like this doesn't happen to me. Just thinking about it is terrifying!]

[Tea Leaf: Upstairs, I can tell you the situation is much more serious than that. Many people have already been reduced to level zero with no stats, their accounts are basically useless now. It's unclear how the game company will handle this, but I'm truly disappointed with this game. Also, you should prepare yourself!]

On a gaming forum, someone started a thread specifically to discuss this matter. After clicking in, you'll find that much of the content in the thread is quite negative, and many people are very emotional and cannot be calmed down.

[Lian Tangwei: Just wanted to remind everyone, if you have time, hurry up and log into the game, things have taken a turn for the better!!!]

Those who were closely following the situation quickly entered the game and learned about the progress of the events through repeated deaths and respawns.

"Search—search immediately! Don't miss anything suspicious!!"

Soldiers in armor surrounded the compound and quickly began a search.

Yu Liu and Zi Yu were driven out of the house by the soldiers and stood in the courtyard watching them search inch by inch.

"Did you enter the city earlier?"

The leading soldier, holding a thick stack of books, asked with a serious expression.

"Yes, what's the problem?"

Ziyu didn't get angry when he was being interrogated; he just nodded calmly, his expression unchanged.

“You…” The leading soldier hesitated. He probably had some impression of Ziyu, but he couldn’t remember him at the moment.

"When did you enter the city? Have you noticed anything unusual during your two days in the city?"

In the end, the soldier overcame his unease and continued questioning.

After answering each question, the leading soldier finished recording the answers and waited for his men to finish searching before leaving with his men.

Two days had passed since he entered the Dragon Mall. Ziyu quickly fulfilled his promise and bought a large courtyard house on the second day as a temporary residence.

Hey, are you guys alright?

After the soldiers left, a small head peeked out from the courtyard gate. It was a boy who looked to be a little over ten years old. He was looking at Yu Liu and Zi Yu with a worried expression.

"What could we possibly be doing? These soldiers are only after bad guys. We're not bad guys," Yu Liu said with amusement. These soldiers were all at the Qi Refining stage, just beginning their cultivation journey, while she and Zi Yu were already at the level of ancestral masters. Why would they be afraid of these few soldiers?

Thinking of this, Yu Liu glanced at Zi Yu, but she didn't quite understand his thoughts.

The Second World is a vast continent. Before this, Ziyu had always been content with his lot and never stayed anywhere. Now that he has entered the Dragon Mall, he has actually bought a large mansion. I wonder what he is planning to do.

"It's good that you're alright. I heard that these soldiers arrested people because of the bad luck that's been happening to many people in the city these past few days. Apparently, the city lord's son has also had a lot of bad luck these past few days. Today, he was scratched on the head by the spirit bird he keeps at home. Despite being given all sorts of elixirs and medicines, he hasn't shown any signs of waking up. Some doctors have even said that he won't wake up. That's why the city lord is so anxious. He vowed to find the source of this trouble. Now, he's even closed the city gates. I also heard that the city lord has sent a Nascent Soul stage cultivator to oversee the situation. No one is allowed to leave the city without his permission!"
