The consequences of letting such a villain go unchecked could be quite serious.


On top of that, they still didn’t know what his plans were.


Why did he plant such a frost element into the Princess’ body?


Facing such a dangerous person, the priority was, of course, to find him.


Therefore, issuing a wanted notice was also one of the things they had to do.


No matter what, Princess Alice’s illness had finally come to an end, she had already recovered.


Though, a bad feeling seemed to be lingering in the hearts of these NPCs.


At this time, Princess Alice opened her mouth and said, “Young warrior, you have successfully found Sir Rhine to create the fire spirit potion and cure my illness. Come, this is your reward.”


The Princess raised her hand lightly, and a golden light entered Lu Yuan’s body.


[Congratulations to the player for completing the sole mission, Cure the Princess!]


[Obtained 3,000 EXP! Obtained 50 gold coins! Obtained 50 reputation points! Obtained a mysterious gift from the Princess!]


Finally!


After such a complicated mission, the reward was finally here!


Lu Yuan felt warmth as the golden light flashed, and the EXP he received allowed him to successfully level up to level 12.


However, all this was not very important.


The most important thing was the mysterious gift that the Princess had given him.


Lu Yuan opened his backpack, and sure enough, he saw a token lying quietly in his bag.


[The Princess’ Command]


[Description]: Players can purchase any piece of land in the city without any restrictions.


In the game, after one’s reputation reached a certain level, with a certain amount of reputation points and gold coins, one could buy a piece of land from the real estate management office in the city.


However, the locations of the land that players could buy were restricted, and some strategic locations were not available for players.


The locations that were open for purchase were usually not the best.


More or less, they were a little remote.


But now, after Lu Yuan obtained the Princess’ Command, he could buy land outside the scope of the initial supply for players. Therefore, Lu Yuan could choose to buy a piece of land in the most prime location!


Anyone who understood real estate would understand the value of such freedom.


This was also why Lu Yuan had spent so much effort to complete this complicated mission.


After all, it was a gift from the Princess, who was much more generous than Solaka.


After accepting the Princess’ reward, Princess Alice smiled at Lu Yuan and continued, “Young man, I admire your courage and wisdom. I wonder if you have enough courage to face the apostle of Hernas?”


[Alice has issued you the sole hidden mission — Face the Apostle!]


[Mission Requirement]: The appearance of the apostle of Hernas has made Alice feel uneasy, so she hopes that a brave person can investigate and find the apostle.


[Mission Reward]: 3,500 EXP, 70 gold coins, 70 reputation points, a self-selected treasure chest (purple), the Princess’ mysterious gift!


[Mission Failure] : No punishment


[Mission Duration] : No restrictions


After seeing the mission notification, Lu Yuan decisively accepted the mission.


There was no time limit, and there was no punishment for mission failure.


It was a waste to reject this mission. Moreover, it was a sole hidden mission.


If he did not accept it, he would be an idiot.


Alice smiled in relief. “As expected, I did not misjudge you. You have enough courage. Then, I will be anticipating the good news. Alright, it’s time for me to rest. Everyone, please leave.”


After Lu Yuan accepted the mission, the Princess also gave the order for the guests to leave.


Hence, Rhine and Lu Yuan had no choice but to leave first.


After leaving the Princess’ mansion, the first thing Lu Yuan wanted to do was, of course, to buy the real estate.


Soon, Lu Yuan rushed over to the real estate management office in the outer city.


For the time being, there were no players here.


This was because the purchase of real estate required a lot of reputation points.


Lu Yuan walked in and started a conversation.


“I want to buy real estate.”


The real estate manager was a fat man with a chubby face. He looked at Lu Yuan with squinting eyes, as if he had some disdain.


He was probably thinking “nowadays, any poor person can come over to buy real estate”.


Lu Yuan could not help but roll his eyes at this NPC. This NPC was such a snob.


However, he was an NPC after all. He still had to perform according to his duties.


A 3D image of Amber City appeared in front of Lu Yuan.


On it was the locations where one could buy real estate, as well as the reputation points and gold coins required.


Fortunately, Lu Yuan had received a lot of reputation points from his previous missions, and he had accumulated almost 1,000 gold coins.


It would cost at least 500 gold coins and over 100 reputation points to buy any real estate.


For many players, it was not something that they could achieve at the moment, and thus, it was only natural that no one would come to buy real estate.


On the map, there were many gray locations which indicated that they could not be bought by players.


This was the restriction.


Lu Yuan immediately showed the token given by the Princess.


“Please open all the property rights.”


The fat manager saw the token and could not help but tremble in fear.


“So you came with the Princess’ decree. Many apologies for the disrespect.”


His attitude was completely contrary to his previous performance. Now, he was a bootlick.


With this, Lu Yuan saw that on the map in front of him, all the properties lit up.


The purchase restrictions were lifted.


Lu Yuan could not help but be pleasantly surprised. So the function of the token was true.


Then, he quickly chose a real estate location.


The location he chose was very good. It was located on the main road of the transportation hub.


To the south, it was close to the teleportation array, which made travel convenient.


To the north, it was close to the city gates, and thus leaving the city to train was also quite convenient.


To the west, there was a business center, making shopping easy.


To the east were the Knights’ Training Grounds and the Mages’ Guild.


This kind of exceptionally favorable geographical advantage was simply too great.


Thus, Lu Yuan quickly decided on it.


Because he had the token given by the princess, the price of the real estate was not that expensive anymore.


Instead, they were very low: 1,000 gold coins and 200 reputation points!


After all this time, Lu Yuan had already collected more than that.


So he could just buy the place straight away.


“Sir, your taste is really good! The geographical location of this place is really good! If it were me, I would want to buy a piece of land in this location too.”


The fat manager said with a flattering tone, which was completely different from his disdainful attitude a few moments ago.


Lu Yuan pursed his lips and ignored him. Although the manager’s bootlicking manner made him feel a little impatient, his words did make him feel pleased.


No wonder so many people liked to be bootlicked by others.


“Alright, how long will it take to settle the procedures?”


Lu Yuan proceeded to pay and was instantly penniless. All the accumulated assets he had earned from before had been used up in an instant.


The real estate manager was also beaming from ear to ear, the smile so big his entire face was piled with wrinkles.


“Immediately, sir, immediately!”
