Xu Sili returned to his bedroom. He ordered the maid to bring tea and snacks over. Then he sent everyone away and started to review today’s results. First, he called up the notifications. Previously at the Elementalist Academy, he only briefly glanced at it. He didn’t have time for a closer look.



[Ding~ Determined the occupation direction: Spiritual elementalist. Elemental affinity: Sound.]

[Ding~ Your experience value is full. Please level up as soon as possible.]

He could continue to level up! Xu Sili moved his mind and the upgrade button behind the experience bar was instantly lit up. The previous 1,367 accumulated experience points filled the experience bar. The empty slots filled up quickly and the numbers after it started to increase.

[Ding~ Your experience is full. Your personal level has risen from Lv 5 to Lv 6, all attributes +1, free points +10]

[Ding~ Your experience is full. Your personal level has risen from Lv 6 to Lv 7, all attributes +1, free points +10]

It took 1300 experience points to gain two levels. In the end, only 67 points were left.

Xu Sili looked at it and expertly added 10 free points to his physique.

[Personal level: Lv 7

Elemental Affinity: Sound]

After his physique broke through 30 points, Xu Sili clearly felt a warm current flowing quietly through his blood vessels, improving his physique. He got up and went to the mirror to take a look. The young man in the mirror had silver long hair that scattered over his shoulders. The face was handsome but looked a bit childish due to the baby fat. His skin was originally ivory white and looked sickly. Now his complexion was healthy.

Xu Sili slightly cocked his head. He felt the changes in his body. It seemed that after his physique value accumulated to a certain amount, he…

Grew up a little bit? Was it his illusion?

Xu Sili turned sideways and looked at the young man in the mirror. This body was created according to his data. He was already very thin at the time due to his illness. The game team seemed to retain this. His height…

Xu Sili was only 179 centimeters. This wasn’t short but it wasn’t particularly tall in the entertainment industry. His ideal height was 183 centimeters. It was a pity that he stopped growing as he got older and he could only regret it. Unexpectedly…

Could this body grow? Xu Sili felt some surprise. He was sure that he did grow a bit taller. It wasn’t very obvious but his trousers were indeed shorter.

He touched his chin and looked at the remaining 10 free points. Did he want to add them all to physique? He hesitated a moment but still didn’t do it. It was too obvious. He was only 18 right now and it was normal to grow taller. Then what if he grew 2-3 centimeters in one night?

Xu Sili shook his head and set his sights on other attributes. If he improved his strength attribute, would he grow muscles? He was too skinny right now and it didn’t look good at all. Purple eyes flickered and the young man became a bit distracted.

Speaking of a good body…

A tall figure unknowingly appeared before his eyes. Wide shoulders, a narrow waist and long legs wrapped in a tailored military uniform. He was tall and upright, with a shiver-inducing sense of power.

Xu Sili licked his lower lip. He couldn’t help being attracted to this man. This guy Si Sheng really grew to perfectly fit his aesthetics. It was a pity…

Xu Sili thought of the scene where he was shot on the throne and squinted. It wasn’t over yet! Hmph, sooner or later, he would let this guy kneel in front of him and kowtow to him.

The young man thought quietly while adding the remaining 10 free points to his spirit attribute. He only had 8 points in strength and adding 10 points probably wouldn’t cause a quantitative change. Therefore, he decided to upgrade another attribute related to spiritual talent first. Just after this addition, he felt his brain becoming clearer. At the same time, there was a rush of enlightenment in his heart.



Xu Sili closed his eyes and found that…

He could ‘see’ everything around him! It was a type of magic sense. He could see clearly within five meters but it was completely dim when it was beyond five meters. Xu Sili opened his eyes again. Was it his illusion?

He thought about it before opening a drawer and finding a few gems of the same size in red, blue and green. He mixed the stones together. Then he closed his eyes, took one gem and placed it in his palm, entering the mysterious state just now.

Red.

Xu Sili muttered silently in his heart. Then he opened his eyes to confirm it and found that it was indeed the color he had ‘seen’! He tried it a few more times and he was right every time!

Wow, what was this? Xu Sili was a bit surprised but unfortunately, no one was around. Besides, both Li Zhecheng and Janice were elementalists of the warrior type. Asking them might be useless. Forget it. He would ask when he saw Dean Justin next time.

This old guy knew he had a spiritual talent but didn’t invite him to train in the academy or send him any notes. He might not have time to go to the academy but he could read and study himself. Xu Sili secretly thought about it. He would find an opportunity to summon the old dean. Even if Dean Justin was busy, he could let Deputy Dean Chris come.

Just then, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Apart from Si Sheng, why were none of the powerful people he met so far above level 20? Li Zhecheng, Dean Justin, Deputy Dean Chris… all three were level 20. It felt a bit too much to be a coincidence.

Xu Sili touched his chin. What were the other people like? He took note of this strange point and thought that the next time he met someone strong, he would have to check their level. Then as his brain became clearer, another enlightenment came to mind.

Xu Sili hesitated. Then he tapped at the table with his fingers and sang softly. The gentle and peaceful melody was like a warm spring breeze blowing across the earth or a mother’s embrace. It gave people the most reassuring touch.

It was Roland’s Good Night Song.

During the incident at the mercenary town during the day, the situation was tense and he couldn’t understand it carefully. Now it was different. After singing this ballad again and adding magic, he felt things more deeply.

He didn’t need to sing at too loud a volume. As long as the sound element existed, his singing voice could be directly transmitted thanks to his magic. It even acted directly on the brain of the people who heard it. It was because there were sounds in the human body.

He had been singing indiscriminately during the day and now it was completely different thanks to the state he had just realized. He could perceive that the most powerful range of his singing was within 10 meters. Further outward, the power would weaken until it was almost nothing. As for within 5 meters…

Xu Sili closed his eyes. He ‘looked’ at everything around him and finally focused on the two ants on the ground. They seemed to be affected by his singing. They lay motionless on the ground, only their antennae shaking.

Xu Sili focused his thoughts and one of the ants suddenly woke up. It shook its head and approached its companion. It pushed its companion and found that its companion wasn’t moving. Then it directly lifted the ant and moved into the cracks in the floor tiles, disappearing from Xu Sili’s ‘vision’.

Xu Sili opened his eyes again, a small smile in them. If his intelligence attribute affected his magic value then his spirit attribute had other effects apart from increasing elemental damage! For example, just now, he could freely remove the skill from any target within his mental range.

In this way, he could prevent the situation where his own people were affected by his singing and everyone in range stopped moving without distinction, just like today in the mercenary town. This ability was so practical!

Xu Sili was a bit happy. He just tried it out and he didn’t expect to gain an unexpected harvest. After finishing the song and gaining +1 proficiency, he stopped singing.

Xu Sili got up and came to a wall. After the iris verification, a square door moved silently across the wall, revealing a dark room. There was a game cabin in the dark room. This was purchased by the old emperor through the Interstellar Alliance and was passed onto Snow Roland after his death. He could use this game cabin to connect to the Star Network. It was also the only device that could connect to the Star Network on Escher Star. The communicator on his wrist could connect with Arnauton on another planet but he couldn’t get on the Star Network.

According to Snow Roland’s memories, Xu Sili sat in the game cabin and followed the instructions. It felt a bit weird. Was he playing a holographic game inside a holographic game? What type of strange setting was this?

Xu Sili complained in his heart while putting on the helmet and laying down. It was activated and the door of the game cabin closed automatically. Xu Sili felt the darkness in front of his eyes before it soon became bright again.

“The Star Alliance Network welcomes you, His Majesty Roland.”

A pleasant female voice was heard in his ears. Xu Sili blinked. Okay, this was the screen name taken by the old emperor and was very real. Then Snow Roland would continue to use this name.

He looked around and found himself in a strange room. There was a bed and sofa and it was equipped with modern equipment. There was even a sense of technology. Was this the virtual space on the Star Network?

Xu Sili looked in the mirror and found that his avatar had the same appearance as Snow Roland. He shrugged and went to the sofa to sit down.

“Based on your purchase record, your holographic games list is as follows. Please make a choice.”



The electronic female voice was heard again and the cover images of several games appeared in front of Xu Sili’s eyes.

He glanced at them and a faint blush appeared on his face. They were all…

Um, less suitable games for children. They were also holographic! Fu*k, how could the old emperor play?

“I don’t want to play games,” Xu Sili said uncomfortably. “Remove these.”

“Yes, His Majesty Roland.”

Soon, the game cover pictures that made his eyes uncomfortable disappeared.

“What else can I do for you?” The female voice continued to ask.

“What’s your name?”

“Guide AI58462 here to serve you.”

“So you don’t have a name?”

“The number is my name, His Majesty Roland.”

Xu Sili touched his chin. “Then how about I give you one?”

The electronic female voice paused before obeying. “Then I will trouble you, His Majesty Roland.”

Xu Sili raised an eyebrow. He felt that the intelligence of this AI was quite high.

“Your number starts with 5. Then I will call you Xiao Wu. How about the Wu of dance? Are you a girl?” (5 = Wu in pinyin. The Wu character used in the name means dance.)

“His Majesty Roland, AIs are genderless.”

“Then why do you have a female voice?”

“This was set by the last His Majesty Roland.”

Okay, it was the old emperor. That terrible old man… thinking about the game covers he saw just now, Xu Sili was full of disgust. He couldn’t see it anymore!

“Do you have any other voices?” Xu Sili wondered.

“Yes, His Majesty Roland.”

Subsequently, the guide AI demonstrated several preset voices for Xu Sili, all of which were very pleasant. Xu Sili nitpicked over it before eventually choosing a childish male voice. In this way, he wouldn’t think about the old emperor at all.

“From now on, you will be called Xiao Wu. The Wu of one, two, three, four, five.”

“Okay, His Majesty Roland.”

His milky voice was too cute and Xu Sili couldn’t help saying, “Don’t call me His Majesty Roland. This is too long. Call me Brother.”



The guide AI stopped for a moment before saying, “Okay, Brother.”

Xu Sili was satisfied. He thought of his reason for going on the Star Network and hurriedly inquired, “Xiao Wu, do you know how to earn cosmic coins on the Star Network?”

Currently, his public support rate was too low and he couldn’t pay the alliance fee. If the news of the possible expulsion from the Interstellar Alliance leaked out, it would cause panic and perhaps a further drop in support rate. Thus, there was a high probability he had to solve this himself.

“Retrieving, please wait a minute.”

“After searching, I have found the information of 1,054,683 full-time and part-time jobs. All the information is listed based on salary from high to low.”

“Please provide more detailed job search requirements to facilitate Xiao Wu’s screening, Brother.”

Xu Sili heard this ‘Brother’ and felt it was particularly good. He had always wanted a younger brother or sister. It was a pity that his parents didn’t want to have any more children so he could only look at other people’s families. Now his craving was fulfilled.

He looked at the list of information in front of him and felt it was too big. “Xiao Wu, is there any job or way to earn 10 million cosmic coins in 29 days?”

“I am in the process of filtering it for you. Please wait a moment.” Soon, the list of information in front of Xu Sili started to shrink rapidly from tens of thousands of pages to only a few pages. “The screening is finished. Please check it, Brother.”

Xu Sili saw the refreshed interface and smiled. “Thank you, Xiao Wu.”

Then he took a closer look. Each page contained 10 pieces of information. They were basically all… wanted notices. The highest reward was for the leader of a star thieves group and it reached as high as one billion cosmic coins. If he could kill this leader, he would definitely become rich overnight.

In addition to him, the top rankings were also valuable. Unfortunately, Xu Sili didn’t even dare think about it. He was only level 7 and didn’t have any attack skills. What could he use to kill them? Could he take Si Sheng? This seemed… okay? According to the settings, Si Sheng should be one of the game’s top-ranked NPCs.

Xu Sili thought about it for a moment before soon driving the idea out of his mind. It was too dangerous. Moreover, the Roland Empire had no spaceships to go out. There was originally one but it was destroyed in the beast wave three years ago. Now they were trapped on the planet. Both people and things couldn’t get out.

Xu Sili shook his head and converged his scattered thoughts. “Xiao Wu, help me remove the wanted notice rewards.”

“Yes, Brother,” Xiao Wu obediently responded. The options decreased again. There were no wanted rewards and the top option became a raffle type event. This was also passed by Xu Sili. It wasn’t free to buy the raffle tickets. Now he had no money. How could he have the money to buy it? Then there was a reward for treasure…

Still no…

He read all of them and there was only one that slightly caught Xu Sili’s eyes. Someone was paying a high price to buy a variant plant called Snow Valley. Escher naturally didn’t have this plant but among the aid materials provided by the Interstellar Alliance was the common seed for this type of plant, the Black Valley. Black Valley was a very good food crop with a high yield. It was easy to feed others. Unfortunately, it wasn’t accustomed to Escher Star’s environment and it was later abandoned.

According to the purchaser, Snow Valley was a variant of Black Valley and was rare. He was acquiring it for research purposes. He was collecting 500 grams for 100,000 cosmic coins and he wanted as much as possible.

Xu Sili took note of the information. If he could grow Snow Valley and the output reached 50 kilograms then he would get 10 million cosmic coins! There were plant elementalists and the plant growth cycle was much faster. It was difficult to grow this variant plant within a month but it wasn’t completely hopeless. There was hope.

Xu Sili saved the contact information of the person who posted the information. Then he asked, “Xiao Wu, are there any singing competitions with a high prize money reward?”

“Retrieving…”

“There are 15 singing competitions currently taking place with prizes above 10 million cosmic coins. Five are still accepting registrations.”

Xu Sili’s eyes lit up. “Quick, give me the information about these five competitions.”

“Please wait a minute, Brother.”

Soon, the previous job information disappeared and several singing competition posters appeared. The moment he saw the competition requirements, the excitement in Xu Sili’s eyes disappeared. None of them would produce results within a month. This was normal. An ordinary variety show couldn’t end in a month, let alone this type of star making activity that required interaction with fans and audiences.

Xu Sili couldn’t help feeling a bit discouraged. Just then, a childish and positive voice sounded in his ears. “Brother, are you in a bad mood?”

“A little bit.”



“Is there anything I can do for you?”

Xu Sili smiled. He thought about it for a moment before saying, “Put on a song for me to listen to. It seems like I haven’t listened to music for a long time.”

“Okay, I am opening the interstellar music library for you.”

Then a new interface appeared in front of Xu Sili for him to choose. Xu Sili was too lazy. He collapsed on the sofa and thought about what else to do while casually saying, “You choose.”

This time, Xiao Wu paused for a long time. Then the cute voice was heard again. “I will play today’s recommended songs according to your balance?”

“Yes.” Xu Sili nodded.

“Okay, I will choose the music library recommended songs for today and use the random play mode.”

Soon, a leisurely song played and the voice of the guide AI disappeared. Xu Sili listened to the song and sang it gently. It was a very strange song. This voice didn’t belong to anyone he had heard in reality but… it was sung with sincerity.

Xu Sili carefully listened to the song before requesting for Xiao Wu to play it again. He asked, “Who sang this song?”

“Cool Breeze is the famous song by the new singer Yu Yang. It is written and composed by Yu Yang himself and it is also sung by him.”

A new singer? Xu Sili became interested and spent some time studying it. There were many music listening sites on the Star Network but the best one was the star music library of the Flanders Interstellar Federation, or StarTune for short.

The traffic for StarTune was huge with people uploading new songs almost every hour of the day. It was inconceivable how hot a song must be to stand out among the hundreds of millions of people. Yu Yang used the popularity of the song Clear Breeze to become a hot new singer.

In the interstellar age, there was great focus on copyright. To put it simply, listening to songs required money but the fee was very low. The price of listening to several songs was one coin. However, it was no match for the number of people! How many people were there in the entire Interstellar Alliance? As long as the quantity went up, there was no need to worry about making money.

Xu Sili was a bit envious. This was the type of overnight success he had previously thought about but it was basically impossible to replicate. People tended to only see the top of the pyramid and ignored the majority of those submerged below.

“Brother, do you want to make money by singing?” Xiao Wu wondered.

Xu Sili shook his head with a smile. Then he paused and spoke again. “I will try it. It would be nice to make some money. After all, I am poor now. I am a bit flustered about having no money in my hands.”

He had this idea so he inquired, “Xiao Wu, can I arrange music in this room?”

“Arrangement is possible. The Star Network has the most complete and realistic analog instruments in the universe. The game cabin has its own recording system and it can be used in immersive mode.”

“Then teach me how to operate it!”

Xu Sili cheered up. He came to life whenever he talked about music. So under the guidance of Xiao Wu, four songs were recorded in one go. They were original songs he hadn’t released previously because he wasn’t satisfied with them at the time. He was in a desperate situation so he could only try everything.

He was just about to upload them when Xu Sili hesitated and added the song Roland’s Good Night Song. This song wasn’t an original and the listening fee was much lower than an original song. Still, it was just used to make up the numbers and he didn’t have much hope for it.

Xu Sili was exhausted once he finished all of this. The usage time of the Star Network was limited. He had seriously overstayed his time and had been warned by Xiao Wu several times. Finally, Xiao Wu issued another warning and he said goodbye, withdrawing from the Star Network.

Xu Sili sat up from the game cabin and felt like he was in a trance. He was so tired. It wasn’t physical but he was mentally exhausted.

Xu Sili pressed a hand against his temples and left the dark room. He had people send dinner over and ate, drank and slept. It was only once he woke up that he felt alive again. The young man stared at the ceiling for a moment before glancing at the big clock on the wall. There was moonlight outside the window and the bedroom was bright. He hadn’t slept long. It was only 9 o’clock in the evening.

Xu Sili slowly sat up, raised his hand and rubbed it through his hair. Then he continued to lie down, wanting to sleep until dawn. Soon, the young man opened his eyes again and sat up. He suddenly remembered a very important thing—

He hadn’t taken a bath yet.

There seemed to be a big bath in Roland’s imperial palace? Xu Sili stared out the window and slightly smiled. Okay, take a bath! In addition to hard work, he should also enjoy life!
