Chapter 163 Acquaintances Meet
With that, the gang of villagers looked around vigilantly, not daring to stop anyone with a weapon, uniformed attire, or give-outs that they were cultivators.
Instead, they focused on searching for mortals instead.
And soon enough, they saw a jolly fellow walking down the street while whistling and talking in glee for heaven knows what.
"Hahaha!... After turning in that many Bone-Tail Leaves, my mission reward this time is pretty big. And soon enough, I\'ll finally be able to get enough pill resources to turn my 11-year-old Juju into a cultivator. Hahahahahaha... She will be so happy!"
The joyful fellow whistled and spoke to himself merrily until the gang appeared before him.
"Erm... excuse me... can you tell me where I can find the Town Lord?" Village Chief Yangku asked, making the jolly fellow stop dead in his tracks.
Blink. Blink.
"Boss Chu?"
The man stared at them for a moment before suddenly smiling as if understanding their needs: "If it were before, I would tell you to go to the Town lord\'s mansion. But he wouldn\'t be there.”
Not there? Then where would he be?
“He\'s always at one of the Park buildings... Ah! You must be looking for him to enter the realms, right?... Well, say no more! If you want to have a better connection and know where Boss Chu is at every turn, then you should go to the Registration office first and register yourselves.”
“Really?... You aren\'t lying to brush us off, right?”
“No way! Trust me. Once that\'s done, I guarantee you that you\'ll see people who will even answer your questions for you, telling you exactly where he is. You know what? Since I\'m happy and free, I\'ll take you to the Registration building myself! Come on, follow me!.. But first, are you cultivators?"
“...”
.
Realms?
Registration Hall?
How come they couldn\'t understand a word this person spoke?
The gang was speechless while following the strange, overly excited mortal.
And from him, they learned that Cultivators could register in the Registration buildings to access all Realms, while Mortals only registered in the Mission Hall for missions and some perks in the mission hall.
After all, the Mortal/F-Class sector in the Mission Hall also had its very own cinema and little fun activities too. The only difference was that the activities there were designed for mortals, and one could watch it as one watching regular TV.
The confused gang entered, registered with their private savings, and stepped out of the building more confused than before.
But before they could make heads or tails of what was going on, they suddenly saw a post that drew their attention.
It appeared that someone was currently walking on the streets alongside the town lord.
And from the message, it looked like they were going to some bizarre hall to enter something called Snakes & Ladders?
.
Hello? What the hell was all this?
The village men were so confused and didn\'t even know how to use their Cards properly.
Luckily, The Town lord seems to be popular.
So the moment they went to the online platform, that was the first thing they saw.
During the entire card process, they asked the Jolly fellow from earlier if this was Wenji Town. And indeed, it looked like they had come to the right place.
This Town Lord must be the one who took after his grandfather.
Now, seeing how much the town has improved, they were very convinced that this young man must be a very powerful one too.
After all, they had never seen or heard of any transformations like this.
They just assumed that maybe this young Lord enlisted the service of several reputational Worldly designers to remodel the Town into its current appearance. And to them who needed help, all this showcased the Town Lord\'s power and strength.
Now, their main priority should be convincing him to come to their aid.
Of course they didn\'t know the Town Lord\'s attitude yet.
So they dared not rely on their former relationship or use that to coerce the Town Lord to help them.
Who knew if he would feel offended instead?
No. They decided first to lay out their motives, coming as open as they could.
This would also prove their seriousness showing the many they had to pay for his service. And if that didn\'t work, then and only then would they bring out their relationship with the former Town lord as well as plead and beg on their knees with all their might.
Sigh... They hoped that this new Town Lord was similar to his grandfather. It would make things a lot easier.
With that, they looked at the information on their Cards and felt their blood boil with anxiety and sheer determination.
"Village Chief, we must hurry up if we want to catch the Town Lord."
"Then what are we waiting for? Quickly. Quickly. Follow the Map!"

...
Like so, the gang of villagers fled the scene as fast as they could until they finally arrived at the Viewing & Simulation Hall.
Of course, the building was a sight to behold itself, but they didn\'t have the time to marvel at all the wonders within it.
What to do? What to do?
Should they go to the dark side (cinema) or go towards the light instead?
They were instantly perplexed and panicked.
But just when all hope seemed lost, Chu Che and his gang suddenly stepped into the Hall. And Lucky for the old fellows, Old Fru instantly recognized the village head.
"Village Chief Yangku?"
Yangku, who heard his name, suddenly turned around only to see someone he didn\'t know.
He looked at Old Fru deeply, with his thoughts all on his face.
Excuse me... but who are you?
