I Live on the Land in Global Games

The opening of the battle arena in Qingshan City acted as the final catalyst, drawing everyone's attention back to Qingshan City. However, no one expected that just a week after the news spread, Qingshan City had successfully upgraded to a medium-sized city.

[The City-level Territory Competition has ended. Congratulations to Qingshan City for becoming the first medium-sized city on Deep Blue Star, with rewards including one set of unrestricted cross-border teleportation array blueprints, one gold, silver, and copper mine resource point each, and unlocked minting rights.]

[The evolution protection period for Deep Blue Star has ended, the Doomsday Game is officially offline, and the world lock is being lifted]

[Unlock successful, welcome Deep Blue Star as an official member of the Multiverse!]

At this moment, all players on Deep Blue Star, regardless of their location, immediately looked up to the sky.

Every change in the past had started in the sky.

But this time, after the announcement ended, they saw nothing out of the ordinary.

The envisioned scenario of alien creatures descending en masse and seizing Deep Blue Star didn't occur, and the quiet sky seemed to mock their unnecessary fears, much to the relief of many.

Perhaps what those foreign shopkeepers said was true: in the Multiverse, aside from the formal migration channels through the Evolution Center, others would only be considered outsiders, unable to gain recognition from the planets. Advancements would be affected, and at most, people would travel to other planets. However, if they wanted to advance professionally, their Mother Star was the best place, so large-scale private invasions and occupations of other worlds didn't exist in the Multiverse.

However, the players' sight had limits. In reality, at the moment the blockade was lifted, something had already descended stealthily.

As the population of Qingshan City broke through a hundred thousand and it upgraded to a medium-sized city, triggering a series of global notifications, Mu Ying was studying spells in the grassland of the former plantation.

Upon hearing her territory had won, before she could check the rewards, she felt an intense sense of crisis.

This sense of crisis came so suddenly that it made her hair stand on end, and for an instant, she almost wanted to enter her Small World to take refuge. But as soon as the thought arose, the sense of crisis intensified.

In the blink of an eye, she decided to trust her instincts. Her extraordinary perception had turned her intuition into a nearly prophetic ability to sense danger. Fortunately, according to her intuition, this danger didn't seem to be fatal.

If she couldn't take refuge in her Small World, then her only option was to stack up her defenses. Consequently, her body was clad in red thorny combat armor, and the defense level of her territory's protective shield was raised to the highest level 18.

Then she began casting the Stone Skin Technique.

But everything happened so fast, the spell had only just begun when a wave of malice washed over her.

And then… then her vision darkened, and a familiar silver-haired youth stood before her, erecting a silver energy shield.

As soon as the shield was up, Mu Ying felt the pace of the malevolent arrival slow considerably, as if the world outside the shield had slowed down.

Recently studying the Return True Word, Mu Ying sensed a familiar spatial force within the energy of the shield.

"Shi Yin!" Mu Ying called out happily and immediately stood by his side, "Don't worry, it might not even be able to break through my defenses! You just get me a little more prep time, and that's enough!"

This was Qingshan City after all, the place where her Guardian Armor was most effective. She was a Druid who was just one step away from legend, and with a freshly achieved legendary defensive power territory shield, even a Demigod's force couldn't kill her instantly.

Shi Yin completely trusted her and nodded, focusing on maintaining the space-time shield, and increasing the time difference to get her more time.

Mu Ying then quickly completed the Stone Skin Technique, casting it not only on herself but also on Shi Yin, followed by a full set of Group Attribute Enhancement, one after the other.

However, as soon as the malice reached the outskirts of the private plantation sub-camp, it was viciously repelled by a sudden force, and she wasn't sure if it was her imagination, but she thought she heard a scream.

"A nameless evil god dares to provoke the Elf Clan!"

At some point, in the sky above, there appeared an elf with an androgynous beauty, clad in sky-blue Elf Cloak, wielding a Longbow, with an expression of indifference.

The force that had just repelled the malice was, indeed, an Energy Arrow shot from his Longbow.

Mu Ying's sense of crisis had by now completely vanished, but she couldn't take her eyes off the elf in the sky.

That was...

In the blink of an eye, the figure was before them.

"Coronet," Mu Ying respectfully performed an elf greeting to the newcomer.

Indeed, this person was her adoptive father, one of the remaining gods with great divine power in the Multiverse, the Elf God King, Correlon.

Though she didn't feel that the blood connection between them proved anything, considering the help provided by sending Furris and the others from the Elf Clan, the funds in the Divine Ring, and the assistance he had just provided, she was more than willing to show her respect.

He might not be a hands-on and caring father, but he was indeed a protector for the Elf Clan.

Mu Ying felt a gentle strength settle upon her.

Shi Yin, on the other hand, felt an oppressive force weighing upon him, struggling to breathe under the strong presence of the other.

But soon, that force was gone.

When Mu Ying and Shi Yin looked up, the figure had vanished, leaving only a faint voice in the air, "The stench of fishy evil god that was here just now is dead."

Mu Ying suddenly remembered, she seemed to have once spoiled the plans of some sea-dwelling evil god. What was his name again? Something like the Koutao Fishman God Buri or the like?

But her adoptive father wouldn't have come just to save her, would he?

Given his protective nature, which extended to sheltering an entire race under his wings, it might be quite possible.

Wasn't it said that he was quite amorous, with many lovers and a slew of direct descendants? She had thought he was the playboy type who took nothing seriously, and while he certainly looked the part, why was he so aloof?

Mu Ying stroked her chin, wondering whether his aloofness meant he was satisfied with her as a daughter, or dissatisfied?

Ah, well, it didn't matter. Her "household registration" was at Deep Blue Star, far from Avando, and whether he was satisfied or not didn't really affect her. With so many sons and daughters, they certainly wouldn't miss just one more, and she didn't need to take herself too seriously.

She quickly brushed off the matter and turned to the young man who now stood a head taller than her, "Yin!"

"It seems the Divine King isn't too pleased with me," Shi Yin ruefully rubbed his head. Ah, it was a pity that he couldn't search on Baidu with his smartphone anymore to find out what to do when your father-in-law is displeased with you.

"It's fine, the Coronet might not be pleased with me either," Mu Ying waved dismissively, "At their level, they don't pay much attention to us."
