Chapter 6: The days of the past became slow
As he descended the stairs, Masuo saw his grandmother—her surname was Surente. She was a Hischer with long ears, just like the mother of the Lin family girl, both being members of the Longerxi family. The Hischer people are a very traditional ethnic group, and Masuo also found his grandmother to be a very old-fashioned person. His grandfather, Pandekin, worked on the Moon and rarely returned home throughout the year. Most of the time, his grandmother managed the inn called Xicui Zhuang, and even the kittens had to call her "madam."

His grandfather, Pandekin, worked on the Moon and rarely returned home throughout the year. Most of the time, his grandmother managed the inn called Xicui Zhuang, and even the kittens had to call her "madam."
Thus, Maso slipped up to the second floor, used the key given to him by the young lady to open the door, and saw a pair of young ladies sleeping on the bed, while a blanket had already been laid out on the floor, where the kitten comfortably sprawled on top of it
Of course, Maso, in this role within the game, is unaware of this; therefore, he only received a prompt—"Dear player, your recent kill has shifted your faction towards chaos by 4 points"
However, it is not entirely the elders' fault. When my mother left home, she had already had a fierce argument with my grandmother. The moment she sent the kittens over was another earth-shattering event. Masuo felt that the only means of communication between mother and daughter might be through explosive arrows and chainsaw swords.
After a considerable amount of time, a halfling, still bearing a crossbow bolt in his abdomen, crawled up from the embankment of Dock 6. Just as he struggled to stand upright, a crossbow bolt emerged from the darkness, piercing through the long curtain of rain and embedding itself in the halfling's forehead—this time, the Lady Luck whom the halfling revered could no longer assist him, and the lifeless halfling rolled into the sea
However, this has nothing to do with the kitten. Although the elder is somewhat old-fashioned, they are at least a kind elder. The kitten's childhood expenses for food and clothing were all covered by the elder. Nowadays, although the kitten sleeps in the attic, it is only fitting—during this peak tourist season when guest rooms are always fully booked, even grandmother herself sleeps in the basement.
Thus, Masuo dashed into the bathhouse— the game’s bathhouse is divided into male and female sections, so Masuo quickly jumped into the pool water
Maso slapped his face forcefully, splashing rainwater everywhere
Aunt Sophie should not be qualified to receive the grand gifts from those cat nobility, so the only possibility is her unborn child, who now, that limping child... has such qualifications
Near Paronster, there is a volcano in the sea, which is why this city is rich in geothermal hot springs. After soaking for a while, Maso found that his cold had miraculously healed.
You have finally returned; just now, those two young girls were communicating with me, asking whether you had returned to the hotel. The team leader, still half alive, was drinking beer when he saw Masuo enter, and he said with a smile
"Yes, how do you know?" The cat blinked, somewhat curious about its elder's information-gathering abilities
Finally, push the body and the box into the water together
... ...
... ...
The heavy rain will dilute the bloodstains left by the deceased; the stone-slabbed ground of the coastal district will not leave any footprints; in order to prevent hair from being left behind, Masuo even tied a cloth strip around his tail. ... Approaching the body of the deceased human, Masuo took out a dagger and cut open the right sleeve of the human's robe. On the right arm of this corpse, Masuo saw a tattoo of two crossed long swords.
Little Poem, you should remember that the Lin family girl mentioned that they were classmates with him, so I looked up the list of classmates from the girls' childhood. You know this is all publicly available information from the school, so I can responsibly tell you that the little cat is named Masuo. In the screen, the expressionless Guo Jing said this as he picked up his coffee cup and took a sip, "Masuo from the Sophie family underwent gene completion therapy at the public hospital in Pit No. 1 half a month ago..." The expressionless Guo Jing continued, "Masuo from the Sophie family underwent gene completion therapy at the public hospital in Pit No. 1 half a month ago... The treatment cost was extremely high, and I find it hard to imagine that Aunt Sophie, who burst through the door, has such financial capability; it is possible that the money came from the kitten's grandmother.
Under the dripping eaves, standing in front of the stone garbage bin, Masuo threw the cloth strip wrapped around the tail and the waterproof tarpaulin into the bin, then pulled out the wooden stopper of the incendiary glue and poured this flammable substance into the garbage bin
The president said they are in position, there is no way around it, after all, we are the Sixth Elite Team, we will get used to it... Wait a moment, extra. " Xu Xiaoshi furrowed her brows as she called out to her friend who was putting the gaming helmet on his head, "Don't go causing trouble for that cat brat... You should know what I mean, right
I heard that you went to the Eastern Continent
Indeed, just thinking about if my legs couldn't move, I would have gone mad long ago. As for what identity this kitten might have, Guo Longtao could only sigh in the end, "Xiao Shi, our speculations are unlikely to yield any results even by the next stage of civilization, so I will check the weather conditions online. By the way, Xiao Shi, have the supplies for the wilderness instance arrived?"
I have heard of this; it seems that due to this genetic defect, the child must grow up without any changes in body size before surgery can be performed... It is truly hard for this child. At this point, Xu Xiaoshi suddenly felt a sense of pity for that kitten. A child who cannot run around since childhood and can only watch must find it quite difficult to remain so optimistic and cheerful.
Understood. Guo Jing nodded vigorously and said, "Moreover, I have no intention of pursuing those two young girls, so why bother creating trouble for him and myself? As the saying goes, safety first."
Madam
... ...
"... ... Sophie’s Margo, Sophie’s Margo ... ..." Xu Xiaoshi suddenly laughed, "So it turns out that Aunt Sophie’s child, no wonder their appearance looks somewhat familiar."
"Lao Tiao, what do you think about the origins of the shamans that the two young ladies from the Lin family brought over?" Xu Xiaoshi was currently editing her team data while glancing at the expressionless face of her close friend Guo Jing, also known as Lao Tiao.
As the screen went dark, the young man in his home at the Moon One crater turned his attention to the photo frame in his hand. After silently observing the six young men and women in the photo, who were either standing, sitting, or squatting, for a long time, a sigh escaped his lips
Indeed. Grandmother raised her eyebrows, as if recalling something, and sighed with a smile: "That's fine, but I must remind you not to forget the breakfast meeting time next time. Hurry up and go eat."
"Well, boss lady, I am going to have a meal." The kitten nodded and then maneuvered the floating recliner towards the dining hall. There is a saying that goes well, in the vastness of heaven and earth, eating is the most important.
The elder's words brought a sense of warmth to the kitten's heart—this is what an elder is like, though stern, yet also kind: "It's nothing, I am my mother's child, and also a descendant of you and grandfather. Choosing to inherit the bloodline is nothing special; it just adds a bit of difficulty during the upgrade."
It may seem inconspicuous, but Masuo knows that this is the identification proof of an infiltrator from the Guerrilla Knights Corps—this tattoo is made with special pigments and is extremely difficult to forge, and the combat records also indicate that this individual is a genuine infiltrator from the Guerrilla Knights.
I had Xu Hua inquire about Ming En. The elder replied with a smile and then added another question: "Are you the chosen heir of the bloodline"
Hmm," the kitten's grandmother smiled, but then frowned and said, "However, I must say, if you are to live in the Eastern Continent, it is actually best not to choose bloodline inheritance. I believe you should understand why.
Indeed, although the public identity of this little creature's grandfather appears intimidating, Aunt Sophie broke free from it many years ago... Extra, do you still remember that New Year's banquet?" Xu Xiaoshi calmly shook her finger at her close friend on the screen, saying, "I believe there is something very unusual about this little kitten's background.
Xu Hua is a cyborg attendant in the hotel, serving as the leader among those cyborg attendants. She has a good relationship with a cyborg girl named Mao Zai, who has a somewhat eccentric personality and beautiful short flaxen hair: "Yes, it was Xu Hua who informed me about Ming Mei's communication message."
Due to this assassination, Maso's faction value is currently neutral (-4) and his compassion for good is at 100. The Thieves' Guild is not merely a group of pickpockets; their scope of work ranges from burglary to conspiracy and assassination. In summary, they engage in all manner of wrongdoing, thus Maso's goodness value has not suffered any loss.
"Hmm, Masuo, I heard from Xu Hua that the Lin family girls have let you into the game, right?" At this moment, the elder, dressed in a white bathrobe, was flipping through the virtual screen in front of him while looking at Masuo and asking.
In the game, good and evil, order and chaos are opposing forces, and there is also a neutral faction. The player's faction value fluctuates between 1000 and -1000, with values above 500 indicating a good and lawful faction, values from 499 to 100 representing sympathetic good/sympathetic lawful, values from 99 to -99 indicating a neutral faction, values from -100 to -499 leaning towards evil and chaos, and values below -500 signifying that one is thoroughly evil or chaotic.
Stay calm! Stay calm! Stay calm!
Indeed, his identity is so public that I doubt he can keep it from those fellows in the guild for long. " Putting down his coffee cup, Guo Jing said, "Some of those fellows have even better connections than we do.
Once again reviewing the battle records, Masuo shook his head helplessly. He reached out to close the eyes of this member of the guerrilla cavalry, then glanced around before walking towards the city gate in the darkness
"Nonsense, how could I forget? When we were young, before the annual banquet had started, we secretly slipped into the backyard and saw Aunt Sophie with her big belly... that scene, I think I will remember for a lifetime." Guo Jing reclined on the backrest of the lounge chair, reminiscing as a young man in pajamas. He clearly remembered that in the private living room of the backyard, there was a large group of little cat people attending the annual banquet, all bowing to her... There were no greetings; those little cat people simply bowed in respect. Hundreds of little cat people, holding high status and identity, silently paid their respects to a woman of Earth.

Indeed, I find it strange as well. If this kitten truly comes from a wealthy and noble background, why has it only received treatment for its legs today? Moreover, I believe that the proprietress of Xicui Manor, although strict, is fundamentally a good person who likes children. The last time we visited, my younger brother received quite a bit of her care; she is someone who genuinely enjoys the company of children.
Of course, Xu Xiaoshi has said countless times that this cannot be blamed on him; it can only be attributed to Xu Xiaoshi's father, who was particularly literary in his youth. In order to make his descendants more aesthetically pleasing, he did not hesitate to make genetic adjustments, resulting in the female doctor from Tershan overdoing it.
Ah, ah-choo! The kitten sneezed—having been exposed to the wind and rain for a long time, it caught a cold. "I will go take a hot shower right away... Ah-choo!" Masuo looked at his commander with an embarrassed expression, "Help me with Ming En... Ah-choo!"
The warrior's half-life, that is the name in the game, but in reality, he is called Xu Xiaoshi. His appearance is quite poetic, a young beauty with red lips and white teeth, yet such beauty seems inappropriate for a man.
Offline, Masuo stretched lazily and then made an effort to support his body with both hands as he crawled onto the floating lounge chair by the bed. While operating the lounge chair to take him downstairs, he began to organize the memories in his mind. At this moment, the game had just begun, and the average level of players was around 3. Players below level 10 cannot leave their starting town area—if they venture too far into the wilderness, they will encounter an endless sea of fog. No matter how far anyone moves towards the fog, as soon as they turn around, they will immediately see the gate of their starting town.

Arriving at the corpse of the half-orc, Masuo dragged the body to the edge of the harbor pier, reattached the single-handed hammer to his waist, then untied the bag hanging from the end of the rope and placed it along with the broken small box into the large box, subsequently using the rope to bind the clasp of the large box and the half-orc's corpse together
After taking a shower, he dried himself off and put on his robe. Upon returning to the tavern hall, he found no trace of his companion, only a note left behind. The note stated that his companion had logged off and urged him to rest after his shower. It reminded him that there would be a team event at 4 PM on the second afternoon of game time and to remember to participate
Watching the kitten continuously sneeze, Ban Tiao Ming laughed heartily and took over what Masuo wanted to say, "I will talk to them, you should go take a hot shower first, the bathhouse is just behind."
However, Xu Xiaoshi is also grateful that his father is merely a special literature enthusiast, unlike Guo Jia's father, who became mired in the quagmire of martial arts novels in his youth and could not extricate himself—because Xu Xiaoshi has had a close friend named Guo Jing since childhood, who has an average appearance, a blank expression, and remains single to this day
Meanwhile, Moon Crater No. 1, Xu's Residence
Watching the flames rise completely, the kitten wearing linen underwear ran all the way back to the tavern from before
Understood
"Go online... Oh, right." Xu Xiaoshi sighed, wiped his face, and adjusted his mood as he looked at his friend on the screen. "Longtao, find the president and tell him our terms."
The kitten certainly remembers the disappointment and helplessness that was difficult to conceal on the elder's face when it answered "no" back then. However, fortunately, this time there is no need to disappoint the elder: "Yes, it is a matter of bloodline inheritance"
It is quite simple for players to make the Endless Mist Sea disappear; they only need to reach level 10 and complete the final quest in the novice area—after the first advancement, the Endless Mist Sea will vanish. Of course, this disappearance applies only to players who have completed the quest, while those who have not will still be obstructed by the Endless Mist Sea.
This is truly tragic. One must understand that a hero without a lady is not a hero at all, but merely a supporting character. Therefore, Xiao Shi and her friends affectionately refer to the young man from the Guo family as a supporting character—until the day he has a lady, then it will not be too late to call him a hero.
