93: Chapter 93 The Little Priestess Gives Out Benefits, Drop Rate Permanently Increased

The green light had not yet dispersed.

On and off the earthen slope, everyone's gaze was fixed on the little girl in Ling Xi's arms.

Lin Yueyao had just finished calling out "Father" and "Mother" when those deer-like eyes, identical to Ling Xi's, blinked, and her gaze fell upon the Elf Scepter in the Great Elder's hand.

The next second.

Buzz—

That emerald-green scepter of the Great Priestess, as if pulled by some force, flew directly from the Great Elder's palm and landed steadily in Lin Yueyao's small hand.

The entire area fell silent.

"She grabbed it!"

"She's holding the scepter right after being born?"

"This is way too ridiculous!"

Lin Chen, holding the dragon egg, had eyes that lit up.

"Little Sister is so amazing!"

Lin Yueyao's little hand was soft and chubby, and she held the scepter that was much longer than she was without any effort. The nature crystal nucleus at the top of the scepter suddenly lit up, and ripples of green light surged outward.

Immediately after.

Lin Yueyao waved the scepter with a babyish flair.

Boom!

A server-wide announcement popped up right in everyone's faces!

[Server Announcement: Great Priestess of the Elves, Lin Yueyao, has officially issued the Secret Realm's Blessing]

[From today until 30 days later, the drop rate for all difficulty levels of the Elf Secret Realm's dungeons is increased by 10%]

[Registered players in Luofeng Village, Fengyu Village, and Shiti Village permanently gain Agility +5%]

[The price of Elf Race herbs and nature equipment in the Luofeng Village trading area is permanently reduced by 10%]

As soon as the announcement came out.

The entire miracle was completely blown away!

"Drop rate increased by another 10%?!"

"And for all difficulties in the Secret Realm?"

"Holy crap! The Elf Secret Realm was already lucrative, and now it's even better?"

"You could probably pick up an extra piece of blue gear every ten runs!"

The local players of Luofeng Village were stunned for a moment, and then a layer of faint green light lit up above everyone's heads simultaneously.

[You have received a permanent blessing: Agility +5%]

Archer players were the first to be ecstatic.

"It really increased!"

"My attack speed is faster!"

"Movement speed went up too, holy shit, and it's permanent!"

Assassin players were jumping for joy.

"A permanent agility buff! Who will be able to catch me now!"

The world channel was smoking with jealousy.

"Why is it Luofeng Village again!"

"A permanent 5% agility! This is better than a piece of blue gear!"

"My eyes are turning red with envy!"

But before they could finish being jealous, the Elf trading area exploded as well.

"The prices dropped!"

"All Elf herbs have dropped by 10%!"

"Nature Shortbows, Vine Armor, Moon-patterned Bracers—everything is cheaper!"

A lifestyle player rushed to a stall clutching a herb basket, his hands shaking.

"moonlight grass that was twenty maple coins a set yesterday is eighteen today!"

"Buy it! Buy it all!"

On the other side, several Archer players preparing to charge into the Secret Realm had gone crazy.

"Stop looking! Get in line first!"

"A whole month of 10% extra drop rate—who's logging off until they've farmed till they puke!"

"Go, go, go!"

In less than fifteen minutes, the crowd in front of the Elf Secret Realm entrance had multiplied several times over.

The queue, which was already so long you couldn't see the end, instantly filled the open space outside the Oak Forest.

"Let me in first!"

"Queue up! Stop pushing!"

"My five-man party is ready, give me a number quickly!"

Surrounding players shouted as they shoved forward, nearly knocking over the wooden fence in front of the entrance.

Lin Chen's small face stiffened, and with a wave of his hand, a screen of Power of Rules pressed down.

[Automatic queuing has been enabled for the Elf Secret Realm entrance]

[Line-cutters will be moved back 100 positions]

Several beams of golden light descended, and the players who were trying to sneak forward were instantly thrown to the back of the line.

The surrounding area immediately became orderly.

"I'll queue! I'll queue, alright!"

"Even if I have to wait until dark, I'm going to farm today!"

At this time, the Great Elder of the Elf Clan could no longer suppress the excitement on his face.

He knelt on both knees and raised his hands high, his voice echoing across the entire slope.

"The Elf Clan respectfully obeys the Great Priestess's decree!"

"From this day forward, all management rights, rule adjustment rights, and reward distribution rights for the Elf Secret Realm are transferred to the control of Great Priestess Lin Yueyao!"

"The entire Elf Clan will obey unconditionally!"

Boom!

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding players felt their scalps tingle again.

"Everything is transferred?"

"It's not joint management anymore; it's all given to her!"

"Controlling a race's Secret Realm right after birth—is this what an epic grade NPC is like?"

As soon as the Great Elder finished speaking, all the Elf Clan elders, priests, guards, and merchants behind him knelt in unison.

"We respectfully obey the Great Priestess's decree!"

"We respectfully obey the Great Priestess's decree!"

The voices rose wave after wave.

Ling Xi held Lin Yueyao, her eyes full of tenderness.

Lin Zhe stood nearby, his expression calm.

But before his eyes, the Elf Secret Realm's rule panel had completely lit up.

Just then, a system notification sounded again.

[Ding! The Elf Clan's authority has been completely bound]

[The host's Power of Rules has increased]

[Current Power of Rules: 89%]

Golden patterns flickered slightly in Lin Zhe's eyes.

It went up again.

And this time, it wasn't just the authority that increased.

The interests of the Elf Clan, the Elf Secret Realm, and Luofeng Village were now completely tied together.

The players below were still going wild.

The first batch of people to rush into the Elf Secret Realm began spamming screenshots in the world channel in less than half an hour.

"It dropped! I got a blue gear!"

"Elf Swiftshadow Bracers! I farmed for seven days and didn't get them, but they dropped on my first run today!"

"My party got two blue items in one go!"

"It really has doubled; the Secret Realm's output today is absolutely insane!"

More and more news poured out.

Someone dropped blue agility boots.

Someone got a Nature Ring.

There was even an Archer who obtained the Elf Lightfeather Cloak they had been desperately seeking; they were so excited they sent a dozen exclamation marks in the channel.

In the trading area, the Elf merchants were selling like crazy.

"moonlight grass is gone! Bring up the next cart quickly!"

"Only three Nature Shortbows left, those in the back stop pushing!"

"Why is today's stock selling so fast!"

An Elf Pharmacist holding an empty medicine box was completely stunned.

"How long has it been, and we've already sold out two rounds?"

The players nearby, their eyes already red, shoved more maple coins over.

"Stop talking! Restock!"

Just after noon, the production statistics for the Elf Secret Realm were spontaneously posted to the channel by players.

"It's almost double compared to yesterday!"

"With today's drop rate, it's practically like snatching equipment!"

"Her Highness Lin Yueyao is incredible!"

On the slope, Lin Yueyao held the scepter, her little face pink and chubby. As if she knew everyone was praising her, she gently shook the head of the scepter in her hand.

Immediately, another circle of soft green light spread out.

The surrounding players instantly went even crazier.

"Aaaah, the little priestess looked at me!"

"Too cute!"

"Who can resist this!"

Lin Chen leaned over holding the dragon egg and whispered, "Sister, as soon as you came out, you were even better at giving things out than Big Brother."

Lin Yueyao blinked, humped in a milky voice, and leaned closer to Lin Zhe while holding the scepter.

Lin Zhe raised his hand and gently touched her small hand.

The surrounding cheers, trading sounds, queuing noises, and screen-spamming continued to blend into one loud clamor.

And further away.

On the Official Road to the east, the sound of Royal Carriage wheels was faintly approaching again.

Behind the clouds to the north, a dragon qi even heavier than before was slowly pressing down.

Outside the forest to the west, an exceptionally cold wisp of malice had appeared.
