In Jinling City, Wu Shaochen arrived at a tavern and sat down, ordering a table full of dishes. He had been playing Oracle for so long but had never eaten in the game, so he decided to experience it.
However, the food in the game was not cheaper than outside, in fact, it was even more expensive. This table of dishes cost about 1 gold coin, equivalent to around a thousand yuan. To be honest, Wu Shaochen had never eaten such expensive food outside.
But despite the high price, the taste was truly excellent, much better than outside. The food in the game was all-natural and unlike anything he had eaten before, made from various wild beasts that he had never seen outside. The meat of these beasts was incomparable to anything in the outside world.
Moreover, eating in the game wouldn’t make you gain weight, which was a huge temptation for players who loved to eat but feared gaining weight. No wonder the tavern was doing such good business.
At this moment, the entire tavern was packed, with both players and NPCs inside, though there were more players.
Some people played games not just for fighting monsters and leveling up, but to experience life.
One could only say, the time of the wealthy is beyond our understanding...
The first floor of the tavern was a hall, and the second floor had private rooms. Wu Shaochen, being alone, was too lazy to go to a private room and just sat in the hall.
The hall was noisy, with people eating, drinking, and bragging—it was a common scene in life. This was why many chose the expensive private rooms, as the hall was just too loud.
Wu Shaochen asked, and found out that the minimum spend for a private room was 10 gold coins, equivalent to ten thousand yuan, which was not affordable for the average person.
"Did you see the big fight at the entrance just now? It was amazing," a player in the hall discussed.
"Of course I saw it, it got my blood boiling. Dustless is incredible, taking on thousands alone and making Proud Heroes flee."
"Yeah, the people from Proud Heroes were too arrogant, they needed a good lesson, or they'd think Jinling City was theirs, blocking the entrance like that. I just want to say, Dustless did a great job."
"From now on, I'm a loyal fan of Dustless. If anyone dares to badmouth him, I'll get angry."
Wu Shaochen listened to their discussion and smiled slightly. At this moment, he looked as if he wasn’t wearing a mask, but in fact, he had just altered the form of the Dustless Mask.
Now, the Dustless Mask adhered to his face like a layer of skin, giving Wu Shaochen a different face. He had also specifically gone to a clothing shop to buy several sets of fashion items. These fashion items didn’t occupy equipment slots or have attributes, but they could replace the appearance of equipment, which was a favorite among many women, as the appearance of equipment was really too ugly.

With a new outfit and a new face, Wu Shaochen sat openly in the hall, and no one recognized him.
The skin transformed by the Dustless Mask was very stiff, not like disguise techniques that could completely change into another person, but Wu Shaochen was already very satisfied with it, as at least no one could see his real appearance.
While Wu Shaochen was eating heartily, a woman in white with a veil came to his table and sat down, speaking softly, "You're quite relaxed!"
"How did you know it was me?" Wu Shaochen asked in confusion, knowing that he had changed everything from head to toe.
"You appeared in a public venue, and naturally, there are many people secretly following you. No matter how you change, there won't be fewer people who know you," Su Muxue said.
"Uh, so it was all for nothing," Wu Shaochen said helplessly.
"Not really, at least those not constantly following you definitely can't recognize you, otherwise, you wouldn't be eating so peacefully," Su Muxue said seriously, looking at Wu Shaochen, whose original appearance was completely unrecognizable.
"Yeah, that's true. Next time I go out in the wild, I'll change my outfit again, and no one will recognize me," Wu Shaochen nodded.
Then he said to Su Muxue, "By the way, do you want to try some? The food here is quite good."
Looking at the messy table in front of her, Su Muxue shook her head and said, "I won't eat. I mainly came to thank you. The people from Proud Heroes have all withdrawn and are no longer targeting us."
"Well, as long as they've withdrawn. If not, I'd just go and beat them again," Wu Shaochen said indifferently.
"......"
"Only you can be so indifferent when facing Proud Heroes," Su Muxue shook her head.
"You guys should hurry and develop. Jinling City has tens of millions of players, Proud Heroes only have a few thousand. Everyone has a chance. Once you develop, you won't need to fear them," Wu Shaochen said.
"Yeah," Su Muxue nodded and said, "Anyway, thank you."
"Just mutual benefit..." Wu Shaochen said nonchalantly.
"Yeah," Su Muxue stood up and said, "I still have to take them to level up, so I'll leave first. Enjoy your meal."
Wu Shaochen waved his hand while eating, "Yeah, go ahead."
After Su Muxue left, Wu Shaochen continued to eat and drink, as he couldn't waste all the food he ordered. But just as he was eating, another voice came.
"Hello... can I sit here?"
Wu Shaochen looked up and his eyes lit up. Standing in front of him was a very beautiful woman.
In her twenties, with long hair draped over her shoulders, her eyes were a bit cold, and she stood there like an ice beauty.
"Feel free..." Wu Shaochen said.
"Thank you..."
The woman gently sat opposite Wu Shaochen, and after sitting down, she didn't speak, just stared straight at him.
"Why do you keep looking at me?" Wu Shaochen felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at...
The woman said, "Nothing, I'm just a bit curious about you."
……
"Curious about what? I'm just a normal man, I have everything a man should have, no missing arms or legs," Wu Shaochen said casually.
".........."
"We're all on the same starting line, how come you're so much stronger?"
The woman finally asked the question she had always wanted to know...
"Maybe because I'm the protagonist..." Wu Shaochen laughed.
"…...…"
"I'm Cold Moon, the president of Cold Moon Pavilion, can we add each other as friends?" The woman suddenly stood up and extended her hand.
"Cold Moon Pavilion?"
Wu Shaochen felt like he had heard of it, it seemed to be quite powerful in Jinling City.
"Alright."
Wu Shaochen nodded. He was currently alone in Jinling City, and might need their help in the future. The power of a guild should not be underestimated.
Moreover... having one more friend seemed like having one more person to rely on...
He then sent a friend request...
Soon, Wu Shaochen's friends list had one more person, Cold Moon: LV15 Archer.
Wu Shaochen was a bit surprised. He didn't expect this girl to already be level 15, which was beyond the standard of top players. As expected of the president of Cold Moon Pavilion.
