"Are these people so free?" Xu Feng exclaimed in astonishment when his notification inbox had 99 plus messages.
If the number wasn't capped at 99, Xu Feng was positive that the messages were about to reach four digits.
So many of the messages were representatives of the guild, with most of them asking if he wanted to join their guild.
As long as he agreed, the position of an outer elder and a high salary was guaranteed.
'Do I look like a naive person to them?' Xu Feng nearly wanted to laugh at these so-called generous offers.
An outer elder position and high salary might sound attractive to the unaware folks, but he knew very well this was nothing but an offer to become a slave of their guild.
Without any hesitation, Xu Feng directly filtered out the guild invitation. He would be a legit retard to join another guild and work his ass, only to end up being a disposal tool.
Sure enough, after filtering such an invitation, the message inbox cleared up tremendously, with only around 30-something left.
Upon the sender, there were some familiar usernames that he hadn't seen in a while during the first post that OneManMedia had posted about him.
Names such as Lotus Lime, and Crimson Rose, with the former even having sent him a private message before. It was just a pity that their message was so ambiguous that he decided to ignore it in the end.
Additionally, he was surprised to see Herald Fist sending him a message as well.
"Even my dearest fat sheep wants to communicate with me. How nice." Xu Feng mumbled, clearly remembering the fool who paid him an astronomical value for some of his potions. Toward such a wealthy customer, he was more than ready to entertain them a little bit.
However, it still wasn't the time yet for him to respond to them.
He had just arrived in the city, so how could he spend his time responding to their messages?
Merely, he simply highlighted the ones that he would focus on and turned off notification sounds in his inbox.
With that done, Xu Feng felt as if the world had become a bit clearer.
As he glanced around the scenery, he noticed that the bustling liveliness seemed to be absent. It was a sharp contrast of scenery according to his memory of the past timeline.
The Star Falls City was supposedly not just a visual and cultural marvel but also a hub of resources and opportunities, making it a prime destination for players seeking to enhance their gear and skills.
'It seems like the city hasn't been able to discover those rich ores.' Xu Feng deduced.
The lore behind the city was that a meteorite had unseemingly crashed here, supposedly promptly a land of richness, and resulted in this city being constructed.
However, after years of zero luck in finding valuable ores, with the meteorite itself having been taken by the higher nobles already, the city's management became lukewarm. Even the traffic of regular NPC was somewhat rare.
It was a pity that Xu Feng hadn't paid much attention to Star Falls City in his past timeline, resulting in him only having superficial information and knowledge.
If he knew the sources of the ores that subsequently appeared, bolstering the city to a new height, Xu Feng would have been exhilarated by now.
Unfortunately, he wasn't someone with a super brain that could memorize every tiny little detail, even if it was like 10 years ago.
"After I unseal this pendant, I should make my way to the library and research the history." He mumbled, glancing at the sky that was starting to have the moon appear.
Maybe the only reason why the city hadn't been abandoned was because of the beautiful night scenery of the moon glistening at the city.
Nevertheless, Xu Feng quickly found the highest standing point which had the moonlight shining brightly.
Shortly after, Xu Feng arrived at the prime location and held the Mirage Pendant, allowing the moon to bask in it.
He then proceeded to call out his in-game name, Lin Feng three times. The system doesn't know his real name, Xu Feng, so it would have been incorrect to call this name out.
A few seconds later, the pendant began to glow softly under the moonlight, its magical energy pulsating. A warm light enveloped Xu Feng, and he felt a subtle shift in his appearance and identity, albeit it reverted back to his original aura almost instantaneously.
System: The Mirage Pendant has been successfully unsealed. You can now use its power to change your identification and appearance at will!
'Success.' Xu Feng thought, truly taken aback by the simplicity.
Even with the system and Sandy's reassurance of the unsealing, Xu Feng still found it somewhat baffling. He had thought there would be some obstacles during the process, or some random troublemakers interrupting.
However, that was truly him overthinking stuff.
Only a person with terrible luck would constantly encounter troubles.
