Looking at the Liu-named player trying to squeeze into the crowd, Gu Xi shook his head.

Each person has their own ambitions, some things cannot be forced.

Anyway, he plans to stay here, empty out all the books in the Library before considering anything else.

But Gu Xi never expected today would be an unlucky day.

The number of recruits needed in Ancestor City is just too many, and all the remaining six platforms are crowded with players wanting to sign up.

Even the Forbidden Book Area is packed, it seems there’s no way to settle down and copy books today.

Gu Xi sighed helplessly, he hadn’t even opened the gates of Death City to let Eve and others out.

He just sent a message to Eve through the special Mirror on his left hand.

After that, Gu Xi had no intention of staying at the Library any longer.

With some rare free time today, Gu Xi plans to explore Ancestor City while pondering.

It’s been one and a half months since he came to Ancestor City.

Apart from the Library and the Barracks, the only place Gu Xi has visited is the train station.

Previously, busy with book copying, Gu Xi didn’t feel anything.

Now that he has free time, Gu Xi feels a bit empty.

Having finally come to Ancestor City and even lived here for several years, if someone asked him about fun places in Ancestor City and he couldn’t answer, that would be awkward.

With rare free time today, Gu Xi simply decides to go out for a stroll.

So, after confirming that the Library wouldn’t settle down today, Gu Xi turned and went down the mountain. When he reached the spot where the Holy Silver Evil Coffin was parked, Gu Xi didn’t activate it.

Instead, he released the Evil Coffin inside it.

The outer layer of the Silver Coffin remained in place.

Sitting back on the Evil Coffin, Gu Xi felt that nothing was going smoothly.

As the Evil Coffin started, he was almost blown away by the wind.

Fortunately, Gu Xi’s Power and agility had been well-enhanced.

The effects of the Fitness Skill were obvious, and no matter how strong the wind, Gu Xi could still hold steady.

"Go ahead, let’s first head to what they call Cafeteria No. 3 and taste some of Ancestor City’s specialty foods."

Pointing in the direction against the wind, Gu Xi gave instructions.

At this moment, the more Gu Xi thought, the more he regretted.

Being in Ancestor City, he hadn’t gone out to explore, even the food was brought from Yalidov, Ancestor City’s specialty foods, he only heard about through conversations with other players at the Library.

He hadn’t really tasted much.

No telling how much good stuff he missed out on these days.

As Gu Xi pointed the way, he thought about these things.

When he rounded a hill, he saw a small tavern not far away.

Unlike large buildings like the Library or Barracks occupying an entire hilltop, the tavern in front shared the hilltop with buildings like the Cafeteria, Inn, Stable, and Flying Point.

Cafeteria No. 3, which Gu Xi wanted to visit, was located halfway up the hill.

The reason Gu Xi first noticed the small tavern was entirely because the tavern, built on the mountaintop, had red lanterns hanging high, drawing everyone’s attention.

Needless to say, the people at this small tavern had put some thought into this.

Turning at the corner of this mountain, the tavern was the first thing one would see.

"No wonder they said this small tavern is very conspicuous, didn’t expect it to be this eye-catching."

Gu Xi muttered, then steered the Evil Coffin towards that direction.

At the same time, Gu Xi noticed, unlike the large buildings of the Barracks or Library, the path up the mountain here was accessible for mounts.

Gu Xi even saw many horses and elephants at the mountain’s base.

Obviously, this was meant for guests not having to walk.

If the arriving guests didn’t have mounts, they would find a way to use mounts to transport the guests up.

Seeing Gu Xi riding the Evil Coffin approaching, several players quickly made way for him.

"This way, guest, are you here for drinks, meals, or perhaps lodging?"

"I’m here for a meal..."

Before Gu Xi could finish, the leading player guided him in another direction.

"You must be heading for Cafeteria No. 3 for a good meal.

You can’t go wrong with Cafeteria No. 3.

I’m not boasting, every day I lead people at the mountain’s base, when rushing up the mountain, I may not walk much, but coming down I always stop by Cafeteria No. 3 to catch the aroma.

Sometimes, even if I don’t eat at Cafeteria No. 3, just smelling it from outside feels satisfying.

If the guest wants a good meal, Master Wu at Cafeteria No. 3 is the best choice.

He’s a Level 15 professional chef, a top-grade chef.

He was specifically invited back from outside by Cafeteria No. 3 as an expert.

Of course, if you prefer something simpler, Master Niu and Master Kang are experts too.

Particularly Master Kang, originally a top-tier Swordsman.

He can extract meat from a cow without the cow dying."

The guiding player quickly explained the circumstances of the master chefs.

His vivid descriptions made Gu Xi almost drool.

Of course, there’s not much to talk about regarding food; after a few words, the conversation shifted to the Outer City District.

"You’re talking about the things over at the Library.

I’ve heard of that issue.

Let me tell you, it’s not that simple afterwards..."

Listening to this player’s hushed rumors, Gu Xi also gathered some intelligence.

No wonder they say taverns are likely to produce intelligence organizations.

Even outside the tavern, a player guiding people could speak so much; let alone the professionals inside.

From this person’s mouth, Gu Xi learned some details not available from the Library.

It turns out the sudden organization to the Outer City District was due to a high-level player living in Ancestor City just reaching Level 30.

Now it’s clear to all that if this Creation succeeds, Ancestor City can connect to the real world.

This is a monumental achievement.

It’s an achievement that brings billions of players back from the depths of the game to the real world.

Previously, with only one Level 30 player, there were no options.

So naturally, there was no problem.

Now with two Level 30 players, the situation is different.

The newly reached Level 30 player also wants this achievement.

In order to gain support from Ancestor City’s Elder Council, he organized this Outer City District exploration.

On one hand, to showcase his strength to the Elder Council, on the other hand, he might genuinely intend to search for something in the Outer City District.

At this point, the guiding player lowered his voice.

"What happened this time has spread up there, but nobody dares to act recklessly right now. Creation is the most important, they wouldn’t dare to expend us cannon fodder at this time.

So if you’re interested, you might want to tag along to the Outer City District. There are some good things there."
