Tianfu Province.
Xiui City.
"Got it! Smooth journey!"
ng Xiaochuan replied to his New Zealand girlfriend, then put down his phone.
He reflected on his experiences during this period and felt a bit dazed.
Am I really getting married?
Just yesterday, he was a typical single guy, always dreading the annual trip ho for the New Year.
There's only one reason for that - being urged to get married.
He went on many blind dates but still remained alone.
Because nowadays, marriage is a "market," a place where money dictates the rules while emotions are just a facade.
And he was over thirty, with a diocre job, couldn't afford a house, and didn't even have a driver's license.
Who would bother to give him a second glance?
But then Zhang Tiantian appeared.
ng Xiaochuan was very certain that even without understanding the Azure lotus path, Zhang Tiantian would still marry him.
She didn't want a house, a car, or any betrothal gifts, and was eleven years younger than him.
eting her turned marriage from "hard" mode to "easy" mode.
So why not?
ng Xiaochuan chuckled, "Brothers in the national server, I guess I'm relieving so of the pressure from the competition for you."
However, compared to before, the competition pressure has significantly decreased.
He learned through the internet that in recent years a substantial number of foreign won have married into Great Xia.
Although the official haven't published the exact numbers, estimates suggest no less than 5 million, with so dia even claiming over 10 million.
This has caused a significant impact on the marriage market, genuinely driving the prices down.
Previously, if a man didn't own a house, he wouldn't even qualify to enter the marriage market; now the number of won insisting on buying a house has dropped considerably.
In a way, it aligns well with the principles of the market economy.
Supply determines price; as the supply increases, the price naturally falls.
ng Xiaochuan picked up the phone again, hesitating whether to call his family to inform them now or wait until after he and Zhang Tiantian had registered their marriage.
"Hmm—"
The phone suddenly buzzed.
A ssage popped up on the screen.
ng Xiaochuan glanced at it and couldn't help but exclaim, "What the heck!"
It was a pop-up from Penguin Interactive: "Mr. Ghost is having a barbecue at the Sea of Death Black Sand. Want to know more? Co to Penguin Interactive."
The pop-up was incredibly attention-grabbing, and ng Xiaochuan imdiately clicked on it, seeing Yang Fan's first post under his Ghost identity.
At that mont, the likes on the post had already reached an astonishing 57 million-plus, with comnts surpassing the 2 million mark.
ng Xiaochuan looked at the picture, first noticing the unique environnt filled with black sand, then seeing the barbecue grill, and finally paying attention to a patch of black in the corner of the photo.
But there was no sign of Mr. Ghost.
He watched carefully for a while, unable to make heads or tails of it.
But he understood that this picture was definitely not simple, and he couldn't figure it out because he lacked the knowledge, but there were definitely people who could.
ng Xiaochuan first clicked on the comnts and found them full of expressions of respect like "kneel to the big shot" or "bow to the big shot."
As there were too many comnts, he couldn't be bothered to scroll through them all.
He searched for a while and quickly found a rather professional analysis.
"First point.
"As everyone knows, the environnt of the Black Sand Sea is extrely harsh, with strong winds blowing all year round, wind speeds rarely less than thirty ters per second, equivalent to a level 12 typhoon.
"And it's not just any typhoon because it's filled with hard black sand; ordinary people without protective clothing would have their clothes and flesh stripped away by countless black sand, leaving only a pockmarked skeleton.
"So having a barbecue in the Black Sand Sea is the romance reserved for super strong individuals.
"I am certain that the Iron Fist Race guest who killed the Warrior Level Corpse Control Monster in Guangren City of Dongli Kingdom couldn't accomplish this.
"So to those seeing this, please join in saluting the top-tier strong of our Canglan Civilization."
ng Xiaochuan muttered "Aweso" under his breath and continued reading.
"Second point.
"Next, let's look at the flas beneath the barbecue grill.
"Ordinary barbecues use charcoal, which burns with a red fla, but the fla in the picture is light blue, which is obviously not ordinary.
"I extracted the fla image and magnified it, then used intelligent AI repair and made a rather astonishing discovery.
"The fla seems to have many strange patterns; no, perhaps using 'manifested marks of supernatural power' to describe them would be more accurate and professional.
"Attachnt image.
"From the image above, we can see that the pattern shapes are highly similar, so this is a supernatural fla containing great power.
"I've seen at least a hundred kinds of supernatural flas but none with such characteristics, possibly making it the unique top-tier fla of the Canglan Civilization.
"I think if an ordinary person were to touch this fla, their entire arm would probably be completely disintegrated.
"I can only say that a big shot is a big shot, always containing extre luxury in modesty."
ng Xiaochuan smacked his lips and felt he had greatly broadened his horizons.
"Third point.
"Given that the barbecue flas are already incredibly impressive, the ingredients surely cannot be overlooked.
"I believe one thing is certain, this black at strip is a thousand percent from a very powerful Primordial Monster.
"Ordinary superpower users in front of such monsters would likely only beco ingredients themselves.
"Yet such a powerful monster was placed on the barbecue grill by Mr. Ghost.
