Game Overlord: Conqueror of Worlds

Chapter 55: Go Out for a Walk

After completing the energy distribution room, Leon did not stop. He raised his hand and directed the seawater sphere not far away into the energy distribution room.

Actually, the seawater sphere was initially prepared for energy distribution purposes. Even though Leon had found Greenvine with shadow properties, without shadow soul mercury as an intermediary, there would still be a certain amount of energy loss every time it was transmitted.

Once all the seawater was directed into the energy distribution room, the seawater, previously divided into three layers, was immediately separated. The outermost layer of shadow soul mist was quickly expelled from the energy distribution room, leaving it only to envelop the outside and be absorbed by the leaves outside. After circulating once, it was expelled again through the roots.

As for the shadow soul mercury, it merged into the space beneath the temple. Though the space wasn't large, it managed to hold all the shadow soul mercury without causing any disturbances.

The core part, which was the semi-solidified jelly, had completely disappeared into the giant urn.

It was precisely because the giant urn had devoured this jelly-like existence that it obediently spat out the energy transferred inside, sometimes even spitting out energy strands tinted with gold or silver.

Being able to do this was already quite good for Leon. The seawater he had just directed in had raised the energy storage limit by 1000, and at the same time, replenished a full 3700 units of shadow attribute energy. The remaining part would rely on Leon’s gradual accumulation over time.

However, with this portion of energy, it had already laid a solid foundation for Leon's Azure Dragon construction.

Leon planned to start his first construction once the shadow attribute energy reached 5000. With enough energy support, he could build several key structures for the Necropolis Fortress in one go.

What was left was just gathering some materials and doing the construction, after which everything would become much easier.

With this plan in mind, Leon didn’t rush to act. This trip to the Storm Isles had consumed too much of his effort, but of course, there were also some excellent gains.

Now was the time for Leon to relax a little. Before, he didn’t have sufficient connections, and even if he got something valuable, he wouldn’t know where to exchange it for resources. But now, things were different. He had a good place to go.

Leaving the virtual world, Leon returned to the real Sun City. His first action was to open the map and look for the bar Lucian Yorren had taken him to last time.

Lucian had mentioned when leaving last time that this bar was unique to Sun City and only allowed Lv3 and above players to enter.

Of course, players who had been proven to have the potential to reach Lv3 were sometimes allowed to enter the bar and have a drink.

Additionally, this bar was also a private meeting and trading place for Lv3 and above players. If someone didn’t want to sell their good items at a low price in the market, they could come here, have a drink, and post a notice to see if anyone was willing to trade.

However, there was a catch to trading here — there was no universal equivalent, and the owner charged high brokerage fees because they had to ensure the safety and fairness of each customer. Otherwise, a fight between Lv3 players would be a big problem for Sun City.

None of this was an issue for Leon. Ever since Lucian had brought him in last time and he registered his game name, Leon had qualified to enter this bar.

His future path was clear; as long as he didn’t die, he would be the sixth Lv4 player in Sun City.

However, in recent days, Leon had been busy with his Azure Dragon and doing other things in the game, leaving no time to go to the bar for a drink. Up until now, he hadn’t entered the bar even once and had even forgotten the route Lucian had taken him last time.

Fortunately, the city’s map was constantly being updated, and the world’s technology wasn’t just confined to the game. In the real world, maps were just as easily accessible.

After pulling up the map, Leon quickly located the bar’s position. The map instantly confirmed that Leon had permission to enter this bar and then provided directions to get there.

Unlike Lucian Yorren, who could teleport instantly, Leon, still at Lv0, could only use the real-world teleportation gate to get to a location and then take a flying car or walk the rest of the way.

Leon, however, was in a good mood. He didn’t see himself as a strong Lv4 player and instead treated today as a rare day off. While transferring through the teleportation gate, Leon even wandered around the nearby forum to check if there was any news for the day.

After that, Leon didn’t take a flying car to the bar but instead opened the map and walked there himself.

Walking among the tall buildings of Sun City, the sunlight shining on Leon made him feel that all his hard work over these past days had been worth it. This was the kind of life he wanted to continue living, forever.

Time flew by as he walked under the sun. With the map’s guidance, and since Leon wasn’t directionally challenged, he quickly arrived at the bar where Lucian Yorren had taken him last time.

Although the interior of the bar had looked quite old and shabby that day, the exterior was still very modern. The 300-story skyscraper was clearly of the latest design.

Numerous vehicles were parked around the skyscraper, and Leon didn’t recognize a single one of their logos. From what he could tell, his parents’ life savings wouldn’t be enough to buy the door of one of these cars.

But of course, Leon wasn’t concerned with cars. He walked straight to the main entrance of the building, and before he got close, the door opened for him.

At the same time, a voice sounded in his ear: “Welcome, Vermilion Oak Giant. Due to your level, you can only rest in the lobby on the first floor, and we ask for your understanding. However, all services have been made available to you. If you need assistance, please contact a staff member.”

This didn’t surprise Leon. Lucian had already mentioned that this bar catered to all Lv3 and above players, and they all had their private meeting rooms in this building. Those who came to the bar for drinks were typically players with Lv3 potential.

Leon’s advantage over those players was that he had been proven to have Lv4 potential, so the services he received were more extensive.

After entering the bar, Leon walked directly to the bar counter and said, “Give me a drink... what was that drink Lucian treated me to last time?”

The bartender glanced at Leon and casually replied, “Oh, you mean Soul Drunk. One drink costs the equivalent of one unit of resources. What do you plan to use to pay?”

Leon stood there, dumbfounded for a while, then finally took out one unit of sulfur and placed it on the bar. The bartender smiled, took it, and placed a glass of wine in front of Leon.

“The sulfur quality isn’t bad, but next time, it’s better to use magical mercury for exchange. It’ll be more beneficial for you.”
