Chapter 178: I Have a Fangirl Now?

Afterward,

Yu Qingcang brought Lu Ran to the Tiandao Alliance Headquarters in the Imperial Capital.

He specifically arranged a room for Lu Ran.

Although it wasn't as luxurious as Lu Ran's mansion in Black Fire City, in the Imperial Capital, where every inch of land is precious, Lu Ran's treatment at the Tiandao Alliance even surpassed that of many official members and high-level professionals.

"The competition doesn't start until tomorrow morning, so you still have plenty of time today, Lu Ran. You can explore the Imperial Capital as you wish," Yu Qingcang told Lu Ran.

Lu Ran instinctively looked at Liu Xinxin and the others.

Liu Xinxin immediately saw through Lu Ran's thoughts and said with a smile, "You've been leveling up intensely during this period, with almost no personal space. Now that you have the chance, go out and explore. We won't follow you. The Imperial Capital is vast; you'll have plenty to see."

Ye Hongyi added, "That's right. After the Hundred Cities League concludes, there will only be five days left until the National War begins. You'll need to prepare for battle then, so you won't have much time to wander around. Consider today your day off."

Lu Ran actually did want to go out and play.

It was his first time in the Imperial Capital, and he was quite looking forward to the legendary city.

But...

Lu Ran glanced at Nanasheng, who was silently standing by, and asked, "What about her?"

Nanasheng instinctively looked at Lu Ran.

Her first thought was that she wanted to go out with Lu Ran! She didn't want to stay here alone.

However, Yu Qingcang shook his head.

He said, "Don't bring Nanasheng along. The Imperial Capital's environment is complex, and if Nanasheng's identity is exposed, it could be troublesome to handle. Moreover, Nanasheng caused a stir in the Imperial Capital before, and now many people are secretly investigating her whereabouts. If they meet, it will likely lead to a direct fight."

Therefore, it was better for Nanasheng to stay at the Tiandao Alliance.

After Yu Qingcang finished speaking, he looked at Nanasheng, but Nanasheng's gaze remained fixed on Lu Ran.

Nanasheng didn't care what anyone else said; she only listened to Lu Ran's decision.

"President Yu is right. In that case, Nanasheng, wait for me at the Tiandao Alliance Headquarters. I'll go out for a walk and clear my head," Lu Ran said.

A hint of sadness and disappointment flashed in Nanasheng's eyes, but she didn't say much.

She just nodded, indicating that she understood.

Subsequently,

Lu Ran left the Tiandao Alliance Headquarters alone.

In the room, only the four presidents and Nanasheng remained.

Yu Qingcang glanced at Nanasheng and mused aloud, "Neil and a group of professionals from Eagle Nation are dead, but the question is, who is the mysterious person who provided intelligence to the Tiandao Alliance? Why did they know about the movements in Kunlun Death Valley, and why did they relay the information to the Tiandao Alliance?"

Lei Tai said carelessly, "What's so strange about that? Some high-level professionals like to explore and go to places others don't frequent. Besides, the entrance to Death Valley is not a Forbidden Area, so it's normal for other professionals to appear. It's also reasonable that they happened to discover the professionals from Eagle Nation. As a Dragon Xia person, it's perfectly normal to report anomalies to the Tiandao Alliance."

Initially,

Yu Qingcang thought the same.

But having been in a high position for a long time, he always felt that things weren't that simple!

"It is a bit strange, but not worth paying attention to. Since the other party reported the whereabouts of Neil and the others, it means they are one of us. There's no need for excessive investigation," even Liu Xinxin said.

So, the matter was temporarily dropped.

On the other side,

Lu Ran excitedly arrived on the street.

The scenery of the Imperial Capital was vastly different from a small city like Black Fire City.

Both the width of the streets and the buildings were much more prosperous than Black Fire City.

Lu Ran, having nothing to do, wandered around and suddenly stopped in front of a building.

The reason he stopped there

was because above the building, there was a signboard with a huge professional symbol next to it, which was clearly the symbol of an Undead Mage!

"Undead Mage Guild..."

Lu Ran muttered.

There's a guild like this? What kind of guild is this? It can't be all Undead Mages, can it? Then how would such a guild form a party to clear dungeons?

No healers, no melee, no support, and not even a tank class to absorb damage!

Lu Ran was curious and wondered if he should go inside and take a look.

Everywhere he looked, it seemed like everyone going in and out were indeed Undead Mages?

And just as Lu Ran was craning his neck and looking around at the entrance,

someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder from behind and asked suspiciously, "What are you doing, you sneaky fellow?"

Lu Ran was startled.

He turned his head to look.

He saw a girl with two small bone-like hair ornaments on her head, about his age.

But she was petite, wearing a short skirt, with watery large eyes, youthful, lively, and playful; she was a cute girl.

Moreover, the other party also seemed to be an Undead Mage.

He could see the Undead Mage professional emblem on her chest.

"I'm just wandering around. What kind of guild is this Undead Mage Guild? I've never heard of it. But naming a guild after a profession, isn't that a bit too high-profile?" Lu Ran asked curiously.

He didn't expect that.

After hearing him, the girl burst out laughing.

"You really are a country bumpkin! This 'guild' is not that 'guild'. This isn't a normal guild, but a professional alliance guild. The Undead Mages registered here all have their own guilds," the girl explained.

Lu Ran wasn't stupid and immediately understood.

He asked, "So, it's like an organization belonging to the Undead Mage profession, not a regular guild."

"That's right. Besides Undead Mages, every profession, except for hidden professions, even rare professions, has its own Alliance Guild," the girl said.

"You're an Undead Mage too. Have you joined this Alliance Guild?" Lu Ran asked.

"No, it's not that simple. To be registered in the Undead Mage Guild, you need to complete a series of tasks inside. Of course, the rewards for those tasks are very generous, it's just that some are quite difficult. After completing them, you can not only get rich rewards but also join Necromancer Alliance Guild and enjoy some welfare benefits," the girl explained.

Unfortunately,

Lu Ran had no interest in this.

According to the girl's description,

this thing was essentially a mercenary task platform, directly affiliated with Undead Mages, which would regularly issue some low-difficulty but richly rewarded Delegation tasks as benefits.

This was also a welfare method for various professional alliance guilds.

The purpose was to gather high-level combatants from various professions.

"Before, there was no Undead Mage Guild established in the Imperial Capital. The reason we have this honor is because of my idol, that mysterious Undead Mage expert! We're all basking in his glory. Now, the status of Undead Mages in the country is rising," the girl said with longing.

Lu Ran was stunned.

A mysterious Undead Mage expert, she wouldn't be talking about me, would she?

"It's just a shame, I don't know how old that Undead Mage expert is. He's my dream guy. If he's old, then never mind," the girl pouted and said.

"What if he's young, or around your age? What would you do?" Lu Ran instinctively asked.

"Hmm... I'd give birth to his monkeys!" the girl said playfully.

Pfft!

Lu Ran almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.

I didn't expect it, but I have a fangirl now?

"Oh, by the way, my name is Cong Yu. What's yours?" The girl, without suspicion, extended a hand and asked.

"Lu Ran." Lu Ran extended a hand and clasped the girl's slightly cool, boneless small hand.
