I Live on the Land in Global Games-Chapter 391 - 383: The Old Mother Lord

Edwin had come with Xie Sen, and I’m not sure how the two of them met, but it looked like they were quite capable now.

"Hehe, I didn’t expect to eat big again so soon! I think I’m falling in love with Qingshan Town!" Edwin was very happy.

Since he was a guest today, Sister Mu Ying decided not to tease him. His love was not for Qingshan Town; he was just in love with eating for free.

Xie Sen also congratulated Sister Mu Ying and after chatting for a bit, she found out that the tree house Edwin bought was very close to Xie Sen’s, and that’s how they became neighbors and friends.

It wasn’t long before the members of the Luoxia Team arrived. Xiao Xi looked at the beautiful meadow and the lush plants in the distance, her eyes filled with intense envy.

Her plantation had been buried by heavy snow.

But her mother had already bought her a small plot of land in the private sub-camp planting area of Qingshan Town, and one day, she too hoped to become a great Druid like Sister Mu Ying.

Once everyone had arrived, Sister Mu Ying didn’t say much. Her thorny magic wand appeared in her hand, and she tapped it lightly on a few long tables and the grilling area by the bonfire. Food on the dinner plates began hopping onto the grill on their own, and cooked food automatically fell onto empty plates.

If you wanted to eat something, you could just help yourself without needing to grill it yourself.

The whole lamb at the bonfire was the same. If someone wanted some, they just had to walk up with a plate, and a knife would jump up, slicing succulent pieces of grilled lamb onto the plate.

Finally, with her magic wand pointed towards the sky, a fireworks magic spell exploded saying, "The party starts!"

This feat was an eye-opener for everyone.

Even the knowledgeable Priestess Granny and Clan Leader Ned had never seen anything like it.

No profession had spells that were so flexible and convenient for daily life.

But then again, each trialist had some unique and bizarre abilities from the Ten Thousand Worlds Trial.

Seeing the food cook itself, no one thought the preparation by Sister Mu Ying alone was troublesome anymore.

Sister Mu Ying didn’t show any sign of being the host; after setting off the fireworks to announce the start of the evening, she was ready to eat and drink.

She was hungry as she had been preparing these things for a while!

She grabbed an empty plate and went from one table to another, filling her plate with meat, then grabbed a glass of sparkling water and found a couch-like chair to unceremoniously snuggle in and began to savor the delicious grilled meat.

It was wonderful—having delicious food and fun drinks, accompanied by a lively crowd.

The seats were very close together, and Sister Mu Ying blended perfectly into the crowd.

Her relaxation also affected everyone else; it felt more like a casual gathering where everyone came to eat and drink rather than a formal celebration hosted by the Lord. Everyone wore smiles on their faces, lingering among the delicacies and chatting about the latest gossip.

The bonfire cast a warm glow on everyone’s faces, just like the atmosphere of the entire party.

Of course, Sister Mu Ying could not escape being asked about how she dealt with the Vampire. At that moment, she was in a good mood and willing to share, so she began telling the story.

"It started on a dark and stormy night, the day I concocted a poison that could counteract the Blood Crow..."

Sister Mu Ying narrated the whole incident from her perspective, glossing over some details about her abilities and the Soft Bones Potion.

During the story, some of the players who were involved also came forward to add their parts, which enriched the whole narrative.

However, after listening, many felt somewhat uneasy.

"Mu Ying, I thought you had been on a rampage, dealing with all the vampires. Now, it seems like it was all sneak attacks?" Edwin thought it through from another perspective; if he were a vampire, he would be infuriated even in death.

"Rampage? Do you have any misunderstandings about druids or about my level?"

Mu Ying didn’t want to pretend to be more than she was and didn’t forget to motivate these excellent crops of her territory: "My attack power is just enough to keep me alive; I still rely on strategies targeting their weaknesses to kill the enemy. If one thing had gone wrong this time, it would have led to endless trouble. If one day there is a threat to the territory, and I just lie down and issue a territory mission, it would be great if you could handle it! Fighting and killing is not really what druids do; planting flowers and grass is my real job. I’ll leave this wish to you all to fulfill!"

We believe in you, my foot!

None of the players believed her explanation.

Even though she now looked like an ordinary girl, huddled in a chair without any airs of a lord, no one dared to underestimate her.

When had there been trouble in the territory that she hadn’t been at the forefront?

Even if druids’ attack power is lacking, that is only in front of those of equal or higher level.

But now, Mu Ying’s name is permanently fixed at the top of the global level rankings; there is no one on her level, let alone anyone higher!

"Lord, we shouldn’t be so self-deprecating. I think the way you stealthily kill vampires is much more powerful than doing it openly. After all, in doing so, they not only suffer physical injuries but I suspect they also suffer great mental distress before dying; it’s a very painful way to die," Lu You couldn’t help saying.

Those few vampires probably doubted their life choices just before dying.

"Yeah, yeah, your way of handling things is so prudent, so reassuring!"

"After all, with you in our territory, being cautious also means being responsible for the safety of everyone’s life and property, which is way better than those foolhardy brutes. You ought to have a bit more confidence in yourself."

...

Mu Ying was utterly confused; somehow, the conversation had turned to everyone comforting her and encouraging her to regain confidence.

Why hadn’t her ’crops’ been inspired to grow stronger?

She felt her words weren’t straightforward enough: "Don’t worry, I have plenty of confidence. But since most of you are the elites of the territory, you also need to push a bit harder to help me achieve a life where I can just rely on you all to take care of everything!"

"Rely on us?" Liu Luoluo shook her head: "Haven’t you realized that you’re a lord who constantly worries like an old mother?"

Mu Ying almost thought there was something wrong with her ears.

What?

She was so wise, so powerful, so dashing; how could she be related to an old mother?

Seeing her unwilling to accept it, Liu Luoluo continued, "You handle all the dangers yourself, and you only issue a mission when it’s safe enough, calling everyone up. Do you know that not a single person has died in the collective tasks you’ve initiated so far? Do you know what everyone privately calls the territory missions?"

Mu Ying shook her head.

"They call them money-picking missions, welfare missions because doing territory missions is safer than hunting outside, and the returns are higher. It’s a sure gain without any loss."

Mu Ying: "..."

So her territory missions were that popular?
