Chapter 837: Chapter 525: Carn Joins the Team
‘Looks like the non-stop update of version 2.1 was triggered by her…’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
‘What’s going on with Little Northern? Is my urging not enough? How could she be overtaken like this… Next ti I see her, I’ll have to educate her properly.’
Sunny Xiaoyu suppressed the shock in her heart and carefully looked at the black-hatted gentleman before her. Besides the golden na “Jack Spett” above his head, which symbolized a heavyweight NPC, she couldn’t see any other information.
At the sa ti, the deep black “certain death” danger level indicated by the panel made her shiver.
“As expected of ‘The Chosen One of the Version’ Mr. Jack… An NPC whose popularity has remained high from the beta until now, he gives an even more terrifying feeling than Mage Carn.”
Sunny Xiaoyu couldn’t help but think.
“If the sisters from ‘Little Silver Fox’ knew I was standing in front of Jack right now, they would probably go crazy, right?”
Sunny Xiaoyu laughed inwardly.
She hadn’t expected her luck to improve so much after the 2.0 version update… First, the guild she founded, “Little Silver Fox,” was noticed by the consortium behind the “Chuxi” guild, receiving substantial support. With the resource backing, the number of mbers hit a new high, and the reputation further fernted.
Even Sunny Xiaoyu herself beca a Transcendent of the magic path due to an accident, and later completed an “A-level hidden series task” in the Byron Kingdom, allowing her to advance to the Mid Sequence.
Her appearance also underwent a 180-degree transformation during that mission. The character she originally crafted beca history.
Luckily, her current look isn’t bad either, thought Sunny Xiaoyu, happy to be a cute girl.
A few days ago, she even t Mage Carn by chance, and because of an inadvertent gesture, gained the favor of this high-ranking NPC… That excitent hadn’t faded when she was brought to the Circus’s base that players dream of…
Brought before Mr. Jack!
Sunny Xiaoyu was sure this would be another huge opportunity for her!
Chen Lun pretended not to notice the subtle expression of the female player and turned around, introducing to everyone with a smile:
“Mage Carn will be part of the team from now on. He and I are both Saints, and you should give him the respect he deserves.”
“This Highness of the magic path… is now part of the Circus?!”
Frey and Akebin, mbers of the Golden Cup Council, exchanged glances, finding it hard to believe. They knew well what a high-ranking mber represented in the Mystic Realm; ordinary Transcendent organizations couldn’t possibly host a Saint.
Even the Generous Council, one of the Righteous God Churches, apart from the Speaker, only had nine Governing Officers.
The previously unknown “Circus” has developed rapidly within three years, now housing two high-ranking mbers! This strength would rank them among the top ten Transcendent forces within the Empire, apart from the Seven Gods Church!
Even more shocking…
The conversation between Mr. Jack and Mage Carn didn’t avoid anyone; they ntioned “following and traveling for fifty years”… This ant the Highness of Carn before them obeyed Mr. Jack!
Even Noah, Maggie, and Golov quickly understood it, showing proud and expectant smiles.
“Mage Carn, please co in.”
Chen Lun put on his hat again and gestured invitingly inward.
The old mage nodded slightly, carrying a large canvas backpack, and followed Chen Lun along the path. Sunny Xiaoyu also followed closely at Carn’s signal.

Dinner was prepared by Floey as usual.
After all, it was to welco a high-ranking mber, hence the respect and courtesy were necessary; such a warm reception was considered grand.
Mage Carn was very satisfied with this; he frequently toasted Floey at the table, expressing that this dinner was the highest standard banquet he’d enjoyed in nearly a hundred years.
The mbers of the Circus were extrely surprised, not expecting such high praise from the Saint himself… Even Floey smiled sincerely and toasted the old mage back.
Yet Chen Lun, sitting at the main seat, laughed secretly.
The so-called “nearly a hundred years” of this old sycophant was likely spent either trapped in a painting or researching in the teor Tower, with no ti for a hot al…
The last al probably dated back to escaping the Mural World, gnawing on that rock-hard sandwich on the tower’s attic.
“Thank you all for your enthusiasm. Given the circumstances, as an old man, I should present you all with so eting gifts…”
Mage Carn smiled slightly, the wrinkles on his face gathered together.
He rummaged through his backpack and took out a dozen palm-sized mini stone carvings, arranging them on the table… All of these stone carvings depicted a mature woman, albeit with different expressions and postures.
“These are small items I made in my spare ti. They are all Transcendent objects inscribed with several different Dharma Seals and permanent spells… They have functions such as cleaning, lighting, healing, blowing wind, and producing water. They are not powerful items but are quite convenient to use.”
“Thank you for the gifts, Mage Carn.”
Chen Lun thanked him appropriately.
He glanced at the statues, unsurprisingly, they were all of Ms. Fleurette’s “figurines.”
He secretly praised the old fellow for his craftsmanship, thinking those mages who specialized in carving should take a leaf out of his book. They usually sculpted so bizarre and ugly stuff.
Subsequently, Chen Lun instructed Connie to distribute these statues to each of the officers. Monts later, everyone at the table was playing with a mini statue, expressing their thanks to the old mage.
Connie returned to her seat, also happily and curiously examining her mini statue. She couldn’t help but praise:
“It’s beautiful! And it has so many magical functions… Mage Carn is so creative!”
“It’s just so small tricks.”
Carn wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth with a napkin, smiling as he spoke.
Connie then asked:
“May I know who this beautiful lady is?”
Looking into her curious eyes, Carn spoke proudly:
“This is my teacher, Ms. Fleurette.”
The old mage expected another round of complints but found the scene gradually grew quiet, surprisingly dead silent. Everyone looked at the statue in their hands and then at him, showing strange expressions.
Carn’s old face turned red, but fortunately, his white hair and beard covered the awkwardness. He took a sip from his wine glass, coughed twice, and expressed that he was full.
Chen Lun noticed his dilemma and suggested a walk in the chapel area to discuss magic knowledge.
Carn readily agreed.
After the two high-ranking mbers left, the crowd erupted. Connie and Maggie, the two ladies, couldn’t wait to chat, showing surprised expressions.
Golov, Barton, and Morey, however, kept straight faces, not daring to gossip about Mage Carn privately, out of reverence for the high-ranking mber.
Except for Antonio and Noah, who were focused on eating, Sunny Xiaoyu at the far corner of the guest table remained silently enjoying the delicious food, her eyes full of amazent…
“So this is the daily life of Circus mbers? So warm… Miss Floey cooks, completing this table full of delicious food all by herself, each dish tastes wonderful… Additionally, I didn’t expect Mage Carn to have a secret crush on his teacher! Is this the love of high-ranking mbers…”
Her thoughts were intricate, but she quickly smiled to herself.
Nonchalantly opening the chatbox, Sunny Xiaoyu shared the recording of her participation in the Circus dinner to the guild channel of “Little Silver Fox.”
Before long, the originally quiet channel exploded.
“——Wow! I saw Mr. Jack! How has this man gotten even more handso? Could he be the ‘God of Handsoness and Growth,’ getting more handso over ti?!”
“——Hahaha (laughing to tears)”
“——Where is this? Why are all these high-ranking mbers of the Circus here…”
“——The atmosphere is great! Is this a fan-made realistic animation? But it’s too realistic…”
“——President Xiaoyu! Honestly, where are you right now?!”
ssages popped up like an eruption, and the sisters in the guild were stunned by the video, continuously asking how their president managed to enter the Circus and have dinner with Jack.
Sunny Xiaoyu’s mouth curved up, occasionally responding to them.
Seeing her guild sisters’ surprise and envy, she felt indescribably happy.
