After a round of effective communication, Li Aozi used his fame as a big streamer and credit guarantees to promise many benefits to this future Abyssal God master, eventually winning their trust.

The Invincible Tyrannosaurus Warrior, no, at Li Aozi's insistence, changed back to their original normal ID——Choosing a Day to Die, also known as Little Mo, formally got persuaded by Li Aozi to join the group chat.

Li Aozi announced externally that his team possessed the top Martial Artist, top Mage, top Support, second-rate Healer, and top Alchemy Expert in the national server, along with three Professional Brothers and the singles' tournament winner and runner-up, adding the arena's thousand-kill-qualified himself, making anyone tempted by such a team.

In reality, from his team, the only active members were Caramel Snail and himself, plus Little Mo, a newcomer.

But that didn't stop him from dazzling the amateur player Little Mo, talking about how 'we are an elite team, usually not recruiting outsiders', and 'I see you might be the new hope for the Fiery Summer players', getting him all fired up. Little Mo promptly took the funds provided by Li Aozi and decisively abandoned the most precious exploration time to complete the acquisition task.

Only this time, Li Aozi's target wasn't jewelry materials.

Little Mo set off with the funds given by Li Aozi, but Caramel Snail was still full of confusion.

"Truly General, I always feel like you've become a different person."

Caramel Snail scratched his head:

"In the past, you seemed approachable but were actually quite aloof, never talking more than necessary. But now you're incredibly enthusiastic in your interactions, almost like an old friend of mine..."

"Old friend?" Li Aozi laughed, "Are you talking about Li Aozi?"

"Yeah, but you're not as handsome as he is, uh, that's not what I mean. But Truly General, your character's face design really isn't very good-looking, no offense, just being honest, you know?"

"People do change. Whether for better or worse, it's all about adapting to the environment, that's what makes a person truly alive."

During the waiting period, Li Aozi and Caramel Snail would casually chat at the Strange Hotel, clearly more approachable in interactions compared to the previously silent and unsociable Truly General.

Strange Hotel is an overly mixed place, home to all sorts of people from various walks of life, discussing some quite sensational topics. However, under the watchful eye of the Overlord, nobody dared to cause trouble here.

Given these preconditions, Li Aozi couldn't find a more suitable place in a short time, so he chose to clarify things here.

Without much effort, he uncovered the entire experience of Caramel Snail.

"So, you just mentioned how Glina has no friends, nobody cares about her, even her mother doesn't care if she lives or dies, and that got Glina into tears?"

Li Aozi was quite surprised:

"It's hard to believe that a woman over six hundred years old would cry over such trivial matters. What exactly did you say that was so hurtful?"

"I didn't say much," Caramel Snail was very aggrieved. "After playing games for so many years, who hasn't been verbally attacked? Even a girl shouldn't be so fragile. Besides, according to the settings, Glina's age should be collectively older than a few of us. She should look youthful enough to be my grandmother."

"Hmm, this seems rather unusual. From your description, I feel her personality has undergone a massive change. In the Layer Abyss, this woman acted ambitious and scheming, proficient in lies and performances. But in front of you, she behaves like a minor lacking maternal protection, like a young cub."

Li Aozi nodded, resting his chin in thought:

"If she's acting, her purpose is merely to arouse your sympathy—but as you described, she died shortly after crying."

"It's not possible I nagged her to death, right?" Caramel Snail said with guilt.

"It has nothing to do with that, you need not feel guilty," Li Aozi said candidly. "It should all be due to her mother."

Caramel Snail pondered:

"You mean Redd Gold? I saw someone posting her suggestive pictures in the forum, quite pretty."

"Just so-so, not a trick of photography. There's a scar on her leg, sometimes she speaks with a lisp, very boundary-less, nine times out of ten, she walks out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a smile. I don't like women who act like thugs."

"Why do you know so much..." Caramel Snail teased. "Have you lived with her?"

"Let's not talk about that now." Li Aozi lifted his gaze towards Caramel Snail. "Take me to Glina's burial site first."

"Mm, follow me."

Just as the two stood up, Li Aozi suddenly noticed in the corner, a group silently setting down their glasses, with one person by the window using a glass to refract their gaze, observing him and Caramel Snail.

Clearly, they seemed to have overheard quite a bit of content.

Li Aozi wasn't concerned since with the Cognition Filter in play, these NPCs shouldn't hear any important information.

Guided by Caramel Snail, they soon left the town. Only then did Li Aozi realize that the coastal town named Victorley wasn't small at all, its coverage could officially be considered a mid-sized city, capable of accommodating a population of 5 million.

Additionally, with the presence of Strange Hotel, this independent city-state obviously became a fishy mix, a hub city with swift population flow.

"Niu, you've got really good luck, this place is quite close to the Narrative Civilization. If the Underwater Abyss Port weren't closed, its usual traffic would be five times what it is now."

Li Aozi remarked sharply.

"Eh, really? I just randomly found a safe place to settle down. If this place is nice, I can call Long Yuqiong and the others here later."

"Mm, actually the most suitable port should be Alemani Island. But that's still a bit far from us, going there... isn't worthwhile."

Li Aozi casually told a little lie.

The Alemani Island in the Floating Sea, while seemingly far from here, actually had an accessible route. However, in his impression, this place is not a no-man's-land.

In the future, the 8th episode of the Narrative——"Endless Garden" colonization Pioneer Group, for certain reasons, arrives at Alemani Island. Here, rich resources and fertile volcanic land will attract countless people to settle, becoming a land of hope and dreams.

Until the main story of version 6.0——"Choosing a Day to Die" unfolds here, indirectly triggering an unprecedented Border Abyss Catastrophe.

Compared to the little fuss of Lievice's antics, and the few billion people in trouble, the catastrophic impact from "Choosing a Day to Die", which directly led to version 14.0——"Void Garden" plot, compelled countless players to finally let go of all grudges, collectively diving into Zhou Yuan, storming into the Void's homeland for punitive revenge.
