Chapter 205 Counting Harvest
A few hours later, as tiny particles of light gathered, the three of them were resurrected in North Wind Castle.

This ancient teleportation array is heavily guarded by the most elite and reliable tiefling soldiers arranged by Medoraash. They are also aware of the magical power of these "Starfallers" and are not surprised by their "resurrection". As long as the players do not violate the rules, these soldiers will pretend not to see it.

As experienced "public servants", Mantou and Singo are even familiar with the soldiers guarding the resurrection points.

"Hey, Kairon, are you on duty today?"

The tiefling guard called "Kaylon" nodded politely in response.

"Fortunately, today is another normal day, and there are no strange or bizarre starfalls."

Kairon sighed inwardly.

He was quite thankful for meeting normal players, as no one knew what they would see here. Last time, a player walked out of the magic circle naked in broad daylight without any hesitation. The body that had no "holy light" in the eyes of the tiefling was exposed in front of him, which was simply unbearable to look at!

Whenever he thought of that scene, his hand holding the spear would tremble slightly.

If it weren't for the regulations, he would have shot that immoral guy to death.

However, light particles gathered in the magic circle and formed unrestrained and open flesh in mid-air, which represented the most primitive pursuit of freedom by mankind and also made the expressions of the tiefling guards become hideous and distorted.

Above the player’s head is still the familiar ID — [Wings of Freedom], and he is respected as Brother Holy Light by the majority of beta test players.

Due to the peculiarities of the druid's wilderness form, Brother Light often transforms into a giant bear and charges into the front lines of various battlefields. Death is commonplace to him, which also makes him unilaterally know these stationed guards.

"I heard that the NPCs here are all highly intelligent. It should be beneficial to build good relationships with them."

He thought so in his heart.

Just like that, Brother Shengguang, who was not covered by a single leaf, waved "friendly" to the guards.

"Hey, it's you again, long time no see."

Chiron's face was suddenly covered with a layer of haze, and his expression was gritting his teeth. In his view, this was a naked provocation, literally.

"Restrain yourself. Don't be tempted to stab him to death."

"But this Falling Star really deserves to die—"

Looking at Brother Holy Light who was confused and scratching his head in the distance, the tiefling guard's hand holding the spear trembled slightly as he thought so.

Mantou and the other two had already been impatient to return to the temporary base and began to count the results of the battle.

Due to the death penalty, Mantou, who had previously accumulated less experience, dropped directly to level three, while Singo and Tiansheng Zhan Kuang still barely maintained at level four.

But this punishment is nothing to them.

After all, professional players who are able to participate in high-level battles are by no means comparable to most ordinary players who are just slacking off.

At this moment, Mantou's backpack was already full of precious white dragon scales. The characteristic of [Thin Ancestral Dragon Bloodline] appeared on his panel, his basic attribute panel was greatly improved, and he also gained the unprecedented ability of [Transform into a Dragon].

He even received a reward for a hidden mission.

Hidden Mission: [Explore the Midnight Demon Tower]

Investigate the truth about the Midnight Demon Tower (1/1)

This tower is located deep in the Khalkha Mountains and is one of the horror legends circulating in the North. Many adventurers want to find the treasure in it, but they all become food for the monsters in the tower, and are even transformed into half-human, half-dragon monsters, wandering in the tower and making shrill wails.

Reward: 1000xp
Passive feature: [Black Tower Explorer]

Skill Proficiency: Insight +1 Investigation +1 Perception +1
Mantou was very happy, his face full of joy of harvest. "Damn, we made a fortune this time!"

Tiansheng Zhan Kuang rubbed his bald head until it was shiny: "Hehe, our death was not in vain, especially the steamed buns, we made a lot of money."

Singo suddenly reminded: "Hasn't your video been updated for a long time?"

"Ah, update?"

"If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. I've been busy playing games lately. The last update seemed to be a month ago?"

Mantou slapped his forehead and smiled embarrassedly.

He could already imagine that the comments were filled with friendly greetings like "lock Mantou up in the small dark room" and "send him a razor blade", and cold sweat immediately broke out on his forehead.

What's wrong with that?
He is just a creator who wants to play games freely!
Singo patted his shoulder and said calmly, "Isn't this dungeon a good resource? You can also show off your new abilities."

Mantou was surprised and asked, "Do it now? Don't you want to monopolize the resources of the dungeon?"

Singo didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I still have some self-awareness. The difficulty of this dungeon is simply not something we can solve independently. You know, the NPCs in this game are ridiculously intelligent, almost the same as in the real world. We were just lucky this time. Next time, the wizard will be prepared and use all kinds of advanced spells. It won't be easy to defeat us."

"Okay, I'll cut it out tonight."

Mantou scratched his head and said quite easily.

However, he found that the hand that was patting his shoulder stayed there the whole time, and the force was getting stronger and stronger, pinching him so hard that it hurt.

Singo said quietly, "Do you still remember those fifteen gold coins?"

"Damn it, don't hit someone in the face!"

"I'll just pay you back!"

After spending all his fortune to pay off his debts and tearfully mortgaging all his dragon scales to Singo, Mantou finally escaped from his clutches and stayed up all night to finish editing the video.

He released this video at three in the morning, and the title was quite catchy.

Who is the one who is haunting the mysterious black tower when howling at night? The beast wizard transforms his own daughter. Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality? --- All in "Erezegai Diary Issue 8: Exploring the Midnight Demon Tower"

Mantou's previous videos attracted a lot of traffic. In addition to those old fans, they also attracted nearly 100,000 players who were interested in the game. Although there was no update for a long time, as soon as the video was released, many fans clicked in, and there were also passers-by who were attracted by the shocking title.

"True. The missing people have returned!"

"Mantou finally came back to life?"

"It's been a month! Do you know how much I have been waiting for this month?"

"Please don't misunderstand me. Let me clarify: Mantou is not dead. I just locked him up in a small dark room and tortured him severely. I just had a great time and I'm letting him out now. Please be informed."

"Hahahaha, the brother in front is so perverted."

"Mantou is dead. Burn paper for small matters, summon his spirit for small matters, and dig up his grave for big matters. If you see him again, he is just pretending to be dead."

Mantou’s nasty face appeared on the screen again.

"Welcome to the long-awaited eighth issue of "Erezegai Diary", I am Mantou."
