Chapter 922: 978, Sunday Sanctuary (16) Visiting Jenny
As for the mysterious behind-the-scenes boss, Shepherd in the Clouds and Frost Red Tea both made guesses.
Su Yu was also unsure if their guesses were correct, so he planned to visit Jenny to see if he could obtain some useful information.
30 minutes later, inside Jenny’s home.
Jenny lived in a house next to the matron’s.
As Su Yu entered the home, he found the interior decor to be very elegant. Not only was the furniture exquisite and beautiful, but there were also many lovely sculptures on the furniture, clearly indicating a wealthy household.
“Adventurer, what brings you to me?” Taking Su Yu into the living room, Jenny watched him with a smile.
Originally, she had no intention of seeing Su Yu, not just him, but any adventurer for that matter.
However, when she saw the box of cake that Su Yu was holding, which was made by Aunt Susan, she immediately welcomed him in.
This type of cake was her favorite, and she felt uncomfortable if she didn’t have a piece every day.
How did this adventurer know she liked this kind of cake?
Su Yu smiled as he placed the cake on the living room table.
As for how he knew Jenny liked it, of course, he had asked the villagers with a hefty sum!
“I’ve come to express my gratitude,” Su Yu said earnestly. “Without your map, we certainly would not have had such a high yield, so I specifically came to thank you.”
“You’re welcome, it was merely a mutually beneficial arrangement,” Jenny said, picking up a piece of cake and eagerly taking a bite.
Wow, so sweet, it felt like her heart was melting.
If this were in the Evo Game, Su Yu would definitely be able to see “[Jenny]favorability +10” on the game log.
Su Yu continued, “However, we won’t stay in the village for too long. The day after tomorrow, we will be taken out of the village by God.”
“Is that so?” Jenny looked at Su Yu, feeling somewhat reluctant to see him go.
It wasn’t that she had taken a liking to Su Yu, but the presence of these adventurers was quite interesting to her.
Once the adventurers left, the village would return to its quiet state, then again to endless loneliness.
As Jenny was lost in her thoughts, Su Yu asked in a soft voice, “We will leave the day after tomorrow, but there are many things I am unclear about from my visit to Sun Village. Can you answer some questions for me?”
“Ask away, for the sake of the cake,” Jenny said, finishing her first piece and picking up another.
“First of all,” Su Yu got straight to the point, “why does God require us to sacrifice so many fish?”
“This…” Jenny froze, cake poised at her lips.
“What, is it inconvenient to say?”
“It’s not that it’s inconvenient, but I also don’t know,” Jenny replied with an apologetic smile.
“Just yesterday, God suddenly issued a divine mandate for a large number of fish as sacrifices, and even said they would send you 50 adventurers to help. The specific reason wasn’t given by God.”
“I see,” Su Yu nodded.
But he quickly raised another question, “Did God often issue such divine mandates before? I mean the ones requiring offerings as sacrifices.”
“Hmm… no,” Jenny thought for a moment and shook her head. “Today, I heard from the matron that this is the first time since the founding of the village that God has specifically requested sacrifices.
In the past, God only accepted offerings and dispensed blessings based on the number of offerings, never asking for sacrifices, only this time is an exception.”
“Is that so?” Su Yu furrowed his brows.
Where there are abnormalities, there must be demons, the first in 800 years, there must be a problem here.
So, he continued to inquire, “Jenny, do you know if God has any enemies? Or is there any power that could threaten God?”
“Enemies?” Jenny also furrowed her brows, a look of confusion on her face. “God is God, where would there be enemies? God never has enemies.
Also, have you finished with your questions?”
At this point, Jenny clearly became impatient. She felt Su Yu’s questions were all rather unenlightening.
“Alright then, I’ll ask one last question,” Su Yu raised her hands in surrender.
“You… ask away.”
Su Yu threw out her last question, “There have been a lot of Flaming Fin Fish appearing in the lake recently. This afternoon alone, we encountered three. Do you know why they are showing up in such large numbers?”
“This… I don’t know either.”
“Then could you help me look into it tomorrow? As a thank you, I’ll bring over Aunt Susan’s cake tomorrow evening.”
“Alright, for the sake of the cake,” Jenny thought for a moment but ultimately nodded in agreement.
…
Having said that, Su Yu bid goodbye to Jenny and left her home.
Although Jenny hadn’t revealed much information, Su Yu still felt the trip had been worthwhile.
Some of the information Jenny provided was quite useful after all.
After returning to their base, Su Yu exchanged information with Zhong Feng and the others before quickly going to sleep.
A night without words.
…
…
Early the next day, as dawn was just breaking, Su Yu and her companions arrived at the altar to the north of the village.
They were there to exchange for “Fireproof Stones.”
However, there had been a significant change on the leaderboard behind the altar.
Last night, they had only seen one adventurer’s name in red. Over the course of a single night, the number of red names had risen to eight!
Frost Red Tea sighed softly as she looked at the leaderboard, “Ah, the seven adventurers who died all went fishing in the lake last night. I was watching from the docks the whole time.”
Su Yu asked, “Frost Red Tea, were they the only seven who went into the lake and died there? Or were there many people who entered the lake, and these seven were just the unluckiest ones who perished?”
“Only those seven went into the lake,” Frost Red Tea confirmed. “The death rate is 100%, and several of them were Seventh Order.”
Frost Red Tea pointed at a few of the red names on the leaderboard.
Out of the eight red names, four belonged to Seventh Order legends, who were well-known and influential figures on Skru Star.
It had been unexpected that they would meet their end in this little backwater.
“Tsk tsk,” Su Yu shook her head.
Luckily, they had heeded the fisherman’s advice not to go into the lake, otherwise…
“But there are changes to this leaderboard,” Zhong Feng pointed to a few new names on the leaderboard. “These seem to be new additions to the secret realm. It seems that this realm’s limit isn’t 50 people but can hold 50 people.”
The number of names on the leaderboard had now risen to 58, including the eight who had died; the rest, the 50 survivors, had their names in beige.
Among these 50 survivors, there were eight names Su Yu and the others hadn’t seen yesterday, likely those who had joined the secret realm just this morning.
It seemed that new participants could keep joining the secret realm until there were 50 survivors.
Also, the compensation for those entering the secret realm had increased to 300 Red Shell Coins.
“Let’s not fret over it,” Su Yu turned around, distributing the newly exchanged Fireproof Stones to everyone. “Let’s get going, everyone. Be on high alert, and let’s hope we have a good haul today!
Also, there are dangers everywhere in the secret realm, so be cautious!”
“Let’s go!”
“Good luck!”
Everyone moved on from the deaths of the other adventurers, focusing on hunting and fishing as they were supposed to do.
Hopefully, everything would go smoothly today!
