The Game of Global Mining

Chapter 597 446: Moss's Assistance

The black cat jumped onto the windowsill and suddenly saw Moss with a gentleman's top hat and monocle. However, he was obviously full of spirit, completely different from the previously decrepit Moss.

"Tom, transform into a human!"

The next moment, Tom changed into the appearance of an old man in a black robe once again.

Moss's expression changed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, the window closed, and the curtains were drawn.

"Old buddy, the four main cities are all hunting you down."

Tom couldn't speak in human form, so Chun didn't know how to respond. He could only convey his helplessness with a shrug of his hands.

He then sat down nonchalantly, assuming a posture of listening attentively.

Moss also sat down, sighed with emotion, and smiled: "Old buddy, it's been a long time, hasn't it? Ten days ago? But it feels like half a century has passed. Ten days ago, I submitted an immigration application to the Culture Immigration Department managed by Miss Fafnir. Normally, the process is very complicated, and no city is willing to let anyone leave. So, I told Miss Fafnir that my health was failing, and my days were numbered. As a result, the immigration application was quickly approved, and they immediately contacted a passing cruise ship from the Golden Empire to pick me up. A farewell ceremony was held at the dock, and I was sent on the ship that very day..."

Chun nodded repeatedly.

Moss sighed: "To think that in my life, I only realized I was a Jewelry Grandmaster at the last moment, but my ultimate value was only to provide an immigration talent performance to the empire's cultural ambassador. It's truly disheartening when I think about it. That night, I dreamed a long dream, where I returned to my youth, a time when the legend of the Sage summoning the Angel God and Fishman God to defeat the evil Bone Dragon and protect the pioneer camp was spread. I knew it was you, old buddy! Your glorious deeds inspired me once again, and I took pride in knowing you!"

"I felt I couldn't continue being an ordinary gemstone craftsman, so I began studying to become a Mage in Gem City. Although the tuition was expensive, I worked on processing jewelry to support myself while persevering. I knew I was of mediocre aptitude, so I refused all social interactions, knowing that these social engagements seemed useful but actually were not. I even repeated a grade for 10 years... Finally, when I awoke from my great dream, I suddenly discovered I possessed powerful magic power, and my body had become strong through years of tempering, no longer an old man on the verge of death! Everything in the dream was my real life! I couldn't even distinguish which life was real, attributing it to a miracle; I was granted a second life!"

Only then did Chun understand; it turned out that the plot after the crossing was loaded as "dreaming," so the two lives did not conflict with each other. However, Moss was still too modest; someone who could realize a Jewelry Grandmaster could never be considered mediocre. Achieving something in the Mage domain was inevitable.

Moss's expression became solemn again: "In the end, I didn't even have time to be amazed by my new life before I heard the news that you had harmed the Black Iron Guardian God, which I absolutely disagreed with. I wanted to investigate the truth, so I joined the Empire's Secret Service as a spy—of course, this isn't something I joined impulsively, but rather something laid out in my dreams for over a decade; my love for the empire is undoubted. Although the empire has shown too many flaws and chronic issues, loving her means striving to save her, which is my sacred duty as a spy!"

Chun could only applaud!

Moss continued: "Actually, during my studies in Gem City in the dream, I already learned that the decadent nobles and demons reached various agreements, and the interests involved were so massive that even the empire didn't know how to handle them. Of course, I don't know what to do either, but you, old buddy, you know, don't you?"

I only want the City Beauty, what do I know!

Chun could only helplessly shrug again.

Moss laughed: "But you are taking action! I am willing to join your action, and I will fully aid you!"

This is exactly what I wanted to hear!

Chun gave a thumbs-up with both hands!

Moss exclaimed excitedly: "Are you going to Gem City soon, trying to avoid the surveillance of the four major cities, right?"

Chun nodded.

Moss waved his hand, and a suitcase appeared on the table, then opened: "How about it?"

Chun gave another thumbs-up!

Moss smiled: "Good, then let's move. I've spent too much time studying in Gem City; I'm very familiar with it. There's a Green Olive Tavern, where I rented a place as a student. I'm familiar with the owner and the staff there, so I'll continue renting a room on the tavern's second floor. You can come to me anytime if you need help!"

Chun gave another thumbs-up!

"Tom, turn back into a cat and get in the suitcase."

...

At this moment, Moore anxiously guarded a cabin with a blank screen, wondering how long this would last.

Finally, the screen lit up!

Moore was ecstatic, finally awake, and in a room on the first floor.

Before he could check the attributes of the Soul Artifact, he found a note on him: "Midnight Moore, your performance was excellent, I have to go out to attend to some matters. You have free time now, and I've paid a month's rent for the apartment, so feel free to use it."

What! Moss left? Went to operate with Brother Chun's Little Demon? Didn't take me? Am I too weak?

However, having free time feels even better, like having parents away from home for a month!

Moore excitedly checked the attributes of the Soul Artifact, and his immediate reaction was one of shock! Divine Artifact-level! Both are Divine Artifact-level!!

Brother Chun actually gave away Divine Artifacts! Such a grand gesture is simply astounding. With these two Divine Artifacts, my rank will probably… jump to 12th place?

But upon closer inspection of the attributes and design of the Soul Artifact, the more he looked, the more it seemed off!

In any case, take a sip of wine and continue sleeping.

Enter the Nightmare state and equip the Moonlight Gauze!

Then, Moore was practically stunned as if struck by lightning, to the point where he almost blinded himself! This was more explosive than running with Moonlight Gauze while waving, at least that was a white gauze; this one is transparent! Moreover, this also meant he could only look for female clients...

Moore immediately recalled the first three days when the server opened, Brother Chun wearing this outfit jumping from the Count's Mansion. So, is this Brother Chun's path of development? Does Brother Chun like to go to the tavern to find dancing girls, so this equipment is meant for finding dancers?

Anyway, it's just a game, so let's go for it!

...

Chun felt the journey was smooth inside the luggage, indeed having assistance from a well-placed and mysterious NPC is beneficial.

When the luggage was opened again, it was already by the window on the second floor of a tavern.

Moss sighed: "This is where I stayed during my student days. I will now prepare some magic items to help us solve our communication issues. So, old buddy, go familiarize yourself with the surrounding area first."

"Meow!"

Originally, Moore provided several patient names from Gem City, but those were not Chun's immediate concern. Chun needed to search the whole city to find areas related to Andariel.

And this area, Chun's first thought was Gem City's Underground City, the place where the Dark Soul Witch had taken him last time. It was also where he fought demons with Eve in the spatial rift.
