Chapter 851 - Ethereal! (2/2)

Like a fish returning to the sea or a bird entering the mountains, he was free!

“Meow~” cried Blackie scornfully after taking over the ‘responsibility’ of dissing Bai Xiaofei.

“No hurry, we should handle matters one by one, right? You can’t force what’s not meant to happen. We should leave it to fate.” Bai Xiaofei ignored Blackie’s reminder that he still had business to do and flashed a smile at Huskie. “How about a meal first?”

Huskie immediately jumped. When it came to eating, he was definitely a dog of action!

Open Field City was one of the many border cities in Ethereal. Unlike the small nations and dukedoms, empires like Ethereal paid great attention to the construction of their border cities. While they might not be as prosperous as the inland cities, their army was definitely among the best.

Bai Xiaofei got to experience this for himself.

“Where are you from?”

After a long queue at the gate registration, it was finally his turn. Those who came to Open Field City for the first time had to get a temporary entry certificate and hang it on them at any time. Otherwise, they would be driven out by the patrols. The identity of a puppet master did not let one bypass this rule.

Rather, it was precisely because one was a puppet master that they needed to be strictly investigated!

One hundred ordinary people could not cause a fuss as big as a Proficient Rank puppet master could. Therefore, the so-called privilege did not exist in border cities.

“Starnet graduate.” Bai Xiaofei realized that this was the only thing he could say after some thought. If he said that he came out of the mountains, he would probably be arrested for trying to cause trouble…

Ugh, but I really came out of the mountains!!

“Oh? You’re from the miracle generation, huh? This little brother has a promising future. Present your proof.” The guard’s tone instantly softened.

However, his request struck Bai Xiaofei dumb. Proof?! What proof?!

“Be nice, little brother. Don’t tell me that you don’t have a graduate certificate. I remember that the Starnet graduation this year wasn’t long ago. I received quite a few graduates some time ago, their certificates are all new.” The guard re-examined Bai Xiaofei with doubt in his eyes. There was more than one case where people made up a good background to pass.

Speaking of graduate certificates… Bai Xiaofei really didn’t have one. He slipped out before the ceremony and forgot about it!

Bai Xiaofei thought hard. After some struggling, his eyes lit up. Big Bro, I did not want to show off. You forced me!

He took out the Starnet Brilliance. The faint fluctuation on it made the guard’s eyes widen.

“This… this is…” he stuttered as he stared at the little token.

“Well, you are not mistaken, it is a Starnet Brilliance. Should be enough to prove my identity.” Bai Xiaofei flashed two rows of white teeth.

Showing off was not good, but it felt… really cool!!!
