After learning about the use of the Wine God’s Cup, Da Fei eagerly found the beautiful garrison general Daelir to express his desire to meet Silena. Given Da Fei’s current friendly relationship with Silena, meeting shouldn’t be difficult.

But General Daelir shook her head and said, "Warrior, Lord Silena will not comment on other gods, let alone the Wine God, who is a Neutral God and unrelated to our battlefield situation. Therefore, I cannot inform you."

What the heck! This made Da Fei frustrated: "Then can the garrison commander provide some information related to the Wine God? Or at least give some hints about the use of this cup?"

The garrison general smiled bitterly and said, "Even Lord Silena isn’t convenient to comment on other gods, so as junior priests, we dare not say much. Please forgive us, warrior."

Da Fei frowned! Since Hilda has already given a hint to find the Wisdom Ancient Tree, it must know. Ultimately, my relationship with them isn’t strong enough. If I were her close friend, we’d have nothing left unsaid. Forget the trifles about the Wine God, we could even chat about Zeus getting involved with his sister-in-law!

Looks like earning more merit to improve prestige is the key. Da Fei then said, "I apologize for my presumptuousness. I think I will wait until I’ve settled the various battlefields before asking again."

The garrison general nodded: "A piece of bad news for you, warrior. The Demon Army’s reconnaissance and probing against our Cold Jade Space have become increasingly frequent. It is very likely to become the next new battlefield. Please prepare for it."

Da Fei raised an eyebrow: "When will the war start?"

The garrison general shook her head: "Not sure, it may depend on the situation in other battlefields. Also, the 8 former priests under your command are working hard to regain their skills. When the war comes, they should be helpful."

Da Fei nodded: "Understood, but I will do my best to prevent the flames of war from reaching here."

For this hidden high-end scene in Cold Jade City with the existence of the god Silena, Da Fei doesn’t want the current players to enter in large numbers. Especially Japanese players who already possess the Power of the Wine God. Although it’s gratifying to see the progress of these 8 priests, the remaining dozen who have fallen far behind are even more worrying for Da Fei.

In any case, while there’s time, I’ll head to the Holy Forest to complete the Forest Hermit’s task.

As the scene changed, Da Fei was transported to the Holy Forest. At this time, the little South Korean beauty was nowhere to be seen, which was fine since it probably wasn’t her anyway. It’s said that professional players’ daily routines are usually managed by their substitute team members, especially those more famous.

Da Fei arrived at the Forest Hermit’s cabin. The hermit, pleasantly surprised, said, "For a warrior who frequently creates extraordinary achievements, completing this task was expected, but to have completed the collection task in such a short time and successfully elevated arrow skills to God-level exceeds my expectations!"

Da Fei laughed: "This is all thanks to the teacher’s guidance! In fact, I’ve earned far more than 100 merit medals. I wonder if the extra medals can, um, be accepted by you, teacher?"

The Forest Hermit laughed: "Extra merits should indeed earn extra rewards, but the collected medals are meant to be broken down for materials to make tools; the better the quality of the medals, the higher grade the tools. Every 100 additional medals allow for making an extra set of tools, so my extra reward can only be making a few more tools for you."

Da Fei exclaimed: "What use do I have for so many sets of tools?"

The Forest Hermit laughed: "Of course, they are for your deputy officer or followers to use. This way, you can set up a production line workshop."

Oh my gosh! Setting up a medal factory! I love it! Da Fei joyfully said, "Then I’ll trouble the teacher!"

——System Prompt: You have exceeded the task requirements of the Forest Hermit’s medal-making skill test task "Collect 100 Demon Clan Military Rank Medals." You submitted "Spider Demon Lord Medal" ×1, "Spider Demon Captain’s Badge" ×1, "High-level Demon Governor’s Medal" ×67, "Mid-level Demon Governor’s Medal" ×87, "Demon Governor’s Medal" ×104, "Demon Captain Medal" ×237 Demon Clan Medals.

Looking at this pile of medals, the sense of achievement in Da Fei’s heart was beyond words! This is the result of repeatedly wiping out Japanese players en masse! I just want to know, how did they carry so many medals on them!?

The Forest Hermit laughed and sighed: "We can make so many sets of tools, but breaking down and making so many medals certainly requires time. I’ll first give you the teaching material reward, and you can come to receive the tools a week from now."

——System Prompt: You have obtained the life skill textbook "Medal Making Textbook," which contains recipes for manufacturing various medals.

——Medal Making Skill: A skill for using resources and magic materials to craft medal ornaments, requiring the strategic treasure "Medal Making Tools Box." Successfully manufacturing a medal will increase the creator’s relevant attribute rewards slightly. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Flipping through this silver-covered book, Da Fei’s heart raced as he asked, "Why are the tools a strategic treasure?"

The Hermit chuckled: "Of course, otherwise how would you have your workshop workers help you make medals? After all, to date, heroes have always been born on battlefields, there’s no precedent for them coming out of factories. However, even so, the progress of your subordinates making medals can never be compared to yours. In short, this skill requires a significant investment of time, energy, and stamina. I personally do not recommend busy warriors learning this skill, but you can let a vice hero learn it."

Da Fei nodded: "I understand now!" Vice hero, huh? Who’s more idle?

The Hermit smiled: "Alright, I’m about to start breaking down the materials. Is there anything else the warrior would like to ask?"

Huh? The Hermit is quite enthusiastic! Da Fei’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly took out the Wine God’s Cup and asked, "Could the teacher tell me information related to the Wine God?"

You are neither a god nor a priest. Our relationship is so good; you should at least give me a hint, right?

The Hermit was taken aback, then smiled wryly and said, "If the warrior wishes to ask about alchemy treasure-making, I can answer that, but I’m afraid I can’t help you with this question."

What the hell! You’re the Hermit who can elevate my skill limits! Da Fei said anxiously, "Teacher, can’t you give a little information?"

The Hermit smiled wryly and said, "Expertise has its own specializations. I really don’t know. Perhaps you should ask the Unicorn King? He’s a creature from the age of myths and surely knows more about gods than I do."

Da Fei raised an eyebrow, "Thank you, teacher, for the guidance."

The Hermit nodded, "Find me in a week." Then he turned and went into the house.

"Yes, teacher!"

Da Fei hurried back to the Forest Holy Lake, where the shimmering lake surface still remained, and where the Unicorn King, surrounded by beauties, was still exuding a lively aura.

As Da Fei approached, the Unicorn King once again greeted him proactively, "Welcome, my comrade. Are you here to review the battlefield situation on our side? Please rest assured, warrior, we have already begun to fully purify the lands and waters once polluted by the Sate Clan."

What the hell! Is it possible to forget comradeship? I have shadows. Da Fei laughed and said, "That puts my mind at ease. I’m here to ask about the God of Wine. Can you provide some information?" After speaking, Da Fei once again took out the Wine God’s Cup.

"The God of Wine?" The Unicorn King snorted loudly, looking displeased, "If he weren’t Zeus’s son, he wouldn’t be much different from a Demon God."

What the hell! There’s actually a topic here! Da Fei said excitedly, "Please, tell me more!"

The Unicorn King sneered and said, "Why do you want to know so much?"

It’s getting more interesting! But seeing the Unicorn King is clearly unhappy with him, then—

Da Fei immediately said, "I was attacked by the Wine God Domain, so I wanted to investigate. After all, the presence of a god is critical to the development of the battlefield."

The Unicorn King snorted, "Just a wine bag and he dares show up on the battlefield? My friend, you worry too much."

Da Fei continued to probe, "It seems you have some opinions about him?"

The Unicorn King snorted coldly, "He and I share one thing in common: neither of us lacks beautiful girls around us! The difference is, I symbolize strength, sanctity, and beauty. And he? Symbolizes debauchery, decadence, chaos. His existence tramples on beautiful girls! Of course, I can’t stand him!"

Oh my God! Sanctity, beauty! Such shameless things you dare to say! However, the clues have been dug to this point, so of course, I should exploit his temperament further!

Da Fei said joyfully, "I can’t stand him either. I was thinking of giving him a little trouble. Do you have any advice?"

The Unicorn King couldn’t help but smile, "Are you sure you want to give him some trouble?"

Da Fei nodded, "Exactly, but not right now; I need to prepare."

The Unicorn King said gladly, "Alright, then prepare some strong liquor, the stronger the better. Once you’re ready, I’ll teach you what to do."

It’s a deal! Oh my God, truly a teacher among three! In his excitement, Da Fei continued to confirm, "But he’s a god after all. Can I be his match?"

The Unicorn King sneered, "He’s drunk into a puddle of mud all year round; how could he have time to fight mortals? I’ll send you to his altar. Smash his altar, making him unable to receive the mortal tributes of wine—that’s the biggest trouble for him. I believe a warrior who single-handedly stands against the Sate Clan can surely handle this! Alright then, get ready. I’m already a bit impatient."

Da Fei laughed, "Alright, I take my leave now!"

Who would’ve thought that the matter of the God of Wine would have such a lead! Da Fei couldn’t help but sigh at the importance of networking; even in a game, it’s the same.

But wait! Da Fei suddenly remembered something: wasn’t my purpose to investigate the God of Wine to form a connection and elevate my dancers into higher-level fighters? Wasn’t I not here to fight? I just met a god, and I’m about to start a fight—isn’t this crazy?

No, no! This matter requires careful consideration, and I need to ask for Lord Silena’s opinion. (To be continued.
