As for the necklace I planned to give to Qin Yun, it was worthy of being a Level 80 Dark Gold – grade necklace —
[Nature Goddess' Blessing] (Dark Gold – grade)
Intelligence: + 50
Stamina: + 42
Agility: + 30
Strength: + 24
Passive: Increases user's healing by 40%. Effect stacks
Level Requirement: 80
… …
I couldn't help but smile when I saw the necklace's stats. This kind of stats should be good enough. The max it gave was 50 Intelligence. The more Intelligence a priest had, the better their healing abilities would be. The higher the Intelligence, the better. Also, the higher the Intelligence, the more HP the Retribution would deal...
Therefore, I sent a message to Ling Xue and Qin Yun: "Are you free?
Come to the plaza to get your equipment! "
Ling Xue immediately replied, "Okay, I'll be there soon!"
Qin Yun said, "We're going back to the city to reorganize. We'll be there soon."
In the end, the three beauties, Yun of Snow Moon, and Ling Yue all came. She said with a smile, "Scholar fought another boss?
It's a pity that there's only Ling Xue and Qin Yun's equipment, not mine … "
I glanced at her. "You're wearing a full set of Dark Gold – grade equipment. Do you still need me to get equipment for you?"
After saying this, I threw the Undead Slash skill book to Ling Xue. The little beauty was in high spirits and said with a smile, "Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you..."
I said with a smile, "No need, thank you. If you get a Dragon Speaker skill book, remember to give it to me."
"Yes yes yes!"
Then I traded the Dark Gold – grade necklace to Qin Yun. I said with a smile, "This equipment's level is a bit high. You can equip it after you reach Level 80."
Qin Yun accepted the equipment and smiled. "Thank you, Scholar!"
I yawned and said, "Continue, I'm going to sleep. I'm sleepy."
Ling Yue hurriedly said, "Don't be in a hurry to sleep. I ordered food from the hotel at noon and it will be delivered soon. We'll go offline immediately. You can sleep after lunch."
"Oh, okay!"
The girls went back to work, and I went to the warehouse to store the Shadow Song metal armor. Then, I went to Scholar's Little Store. Everything was normal, and the funds in my bank account were slowly accumulating. Although this amount of money wasn't as large as the Ling Corporation, it was still good enough for me.
I put all the top-tier equipment I had just obtained on the shelves. All of them had a time limit of half a month. The Gold-grade Oath Shield had a starting price of 2000 RMB, and the buyout price was 50000 RMB. Anyone with enough money could buy it for 50k RMB. As for the Dark Gold – grade Blood Throat Dagger, it had a starting price of 20000 RMB, and the buyout price was 1 million RMB. To be honest, I couldn't help but blush when the price reached 1 million RMB.
The best equipment I wanted to sell this time was the Level 80 Dark Gold – grade Soul-Splitting Battle Axe. Without hesitation, I put it up for sale at 100k RMB and a buyout price of 2 million. I didn't have to worry about not being able to sell this powerful equipment anyway. Moreover, I could cancel the transaction a few days later if the price wasn't to my liking. I was the owner of this shop after all, so I had the final say.
The phrase "final right of explanation" was simply too shameful, because it meant that everything that was said could be overturned to justify itself. This phrase could be said to be something that unscrupulous businessmen had to learn.
As for the Frost Bones set, I put it up for sale at a starting price of 50k RMB and a buyout price of 80k RMB. The transaction would last for a week, so it wasn't very expensive. The Frost Bones set was a top-tier set after all, and I was only selling it at 80k RMB because I wanted to sell it at a low profit rate. Otherwise, I would've sold it for 200k RMB.
As for the rest of the equipment, I handed them over to the shop manager and asked him to appraise them based on their stats. This way, I could save myself some trouble.
After everything was done, I logged off.
The girls were already chatting happily in the workshop's living room. When I appeared, Bing Cha immediately said with a smile, "Congratulations, handsome Scholar, you leveled up twice overnight!"
I glanced at Ling Xue. "I'm Level 77 …"
Ling Xue immediately blushed. "So what?"
I glared at her. "Did you forget what we said?"
Ling Xue couldn't help but smile. She whispered, "We'll talk about it tonight!"
My heart skipped a beat. Tonight? Okay, okay...
After dinner, I went back to my room and fell into a deep sleep.
… …
I didn't wake up until 7 pm. When I got out of bed, the girls of the workshop were waiting for me to eat dinner together.
I washed up and sat down on the sofa. Ling Yue said with a smile, "Scholar, we went to the Death Mines again in the afternoon. Hoho, we got a lot of experience, and we killed a Dark Gold – grade gnoll boss at the end. It dropped a Dark Gold – grade leather armor and a Gold-grade wristguard ~ ~"
I chuckled. "Congratulations!
Oh right, Ling Yue, what's your Magic Attack? "
Ling Yue blinked and said with a smile, "What, you want to know more about me?"
I couldn't help but smile. "Nothing. I just wanted to know what the current top mage players' Attack power is like."
"Oh?"
Ling Yue smiled meaningfully and said, "Yes, my Magic Attack was originally 1504, but I bought a Dark Gold – grade wristguard this afternoon, so my Magic Attack is about 1540. Not bad, right?"
I nodded. "Very strong. The number one mage of China is none other than you. After you reach Level 80 and equip the Icebreaking Robe and the Staff of Ice and Fire, your Magic Attack will be amazing!"
Ling Yue pursed her lips and smiled. "Come on.
No matter how high a mage's Magic Attack is, they can still one-shot a warrior like you... "
"No, as long as a mage controls the distance, and makes full use of Blink and Mage Shield, they still have a chance," I comforted.
"But the problem is that there aren't many mages who can compete with you in terms of mechanical skill. Even the top-tier mages in China have less than a 30% chance of winning against you, don't you think so, Snow?"
Ling Xue took a sip of tea and said frankly, "Scholar is as strong as a monster. There's no need to compare yourself to him. The top melee players in China are Hellfire and Seven-star Lamp, and Dummy is the ninth class!
(In Spirit of Grief, there are eight main classes). "
I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Are you praising me, Ling Xue?"
"Hehe, feel for yourself!"
At this time, Qin Yun said with a smile, "We accepted a shareable quest with a difficulty of 1500. It's very challenging, and the maximum number of players is 10. Scholar, come with us after you finish eating, okay?"
Thinking that my quest was over, I nodded and said, "No problem, but give me 10 minutes first. I'll finish today's quest first!"
"Mn, okay!"
So after dinner, I went online and ran into the palace. In the distance, the bounty officer was standing there, and a few players were accepting quests next to him. Bounty hunter quests refreshed based on a player's Reputation, but most of them didn't have any quests, and the occasional quests weren't very high in rank. As for this Feather Moon Ruins quest, it was opened because of the quest scroll inside the silver chest.
I went next to the bounty officer and took out the Dark Archon's head.
The bounty officer was slightly surprised and then said, "Young warrior, your courage surprises me. Come, this is your reward. May the light of Queen Anne be with you!"
Ding ~!
System Notice: Congratulations, you have completed the quest [Feather Moon Ruins]. You have gained 4,500,000 EXP, 3000 gold, 4000 Reputation, and quest reward [Undead Water Pouch]!
… …
Hmm?
Undead Water Pouch?
What's that?
I was surprised and immediately opened my bag. I found a gray bag in the corner of my bag. I took it out and was immediately overjoyed — [Undead Water Bag] (Dark Gold – grade): A container used by undead to store their life force. After use, it can increase the user's bag space by 400 slots. This type of item can only be used once.
… …
So it was a good item to increase the space in my bag. With this Undead Water Bag, I wouldn't have to worry about running back and forth with too many equipment. In the future, as long as it was an equipment, I would pick it up.
So, I clicked to use the Undead Water Pouch. The pouch immediately embedded into my armor, and my bag space instantly became 500 slots!
Overjoyed, I immediately went to the potion shop and replenished a large amount of Mana Potions. This way, our party wouldn't have to worry about potions.
I looked at the shop and was shocked to find that the Gold-grade Oath Shield had already been sold. 50000 Snowflake Silver entered my account!
The Dark Gold – grade Blood Throat Dagger was already sold at 170,000, and the Soul-Splitting Axe was even sold at an astronomical price of 570,000!
In other words, I definitely had 170,000 + 570,000 in my account right now!
I was rich! I couldn't stop smiling. When I arrived at the plaza, the girls looked at me with disdain. Ling Xue said to her older sister, "He must have sold some equipment at a sky-high price. Otherwise, he wouldn't be smiling like that …"
I desperately suppressed my smile and waved my hand. "It's nothing, I didn't get rich. Let's keep a low profile. Tomorrow's dinner is on me. You guys can choose any hotel you want, hahahaha …"
Bing Cha couldn't help but laugh. "Damn, you're still saying you didn't get rich? Never mind, let's go eat at that five-star international hotel tomorrow. We'll make Scholar Poor!"
Ling Yue smiled. "With Scholar Little Shop's financial resources, I'm afraid we won't be able to make Scholar Poor even if we eat as much as we can. That being said, it's a good thing that we'll have dinner tomorrow, hehe!"
I glanced at the girls' levels and noticed that they were leveling up really quickly. It looked like they had been grinding hard for the past two days without any delay. On the Level Ranking Board, everyone was desperately trying to reach Level 80. White Cloud City was filled with talented players, and the names of the ten most outstanding players were shining brightly on the Level Ranking Board. 1. Frivolous Scholar, Level 77 Dragon Speaker, 2. Windy Snow, Level 75 Swordsman, 3. Breeze Touches the Moon, Level 74 Mage
4. Zi Yun 'er Level 73 Priest
5. Hellfire Level 73 Tempest Warrior
6. Seven-star Lamp Level 72 Dark Swordsman
7. Sword Fire Ghostflame Level 72 Dark Mage
8. Chrysanthemum Daohana Level 72 Soul Sorcerer
9. Battle Soul Proud Heaven Level 71 Berserker
10. Battle Soul Iron Wing Level 71 Mage
… …
I was still far ahead of the others, and the twins had taken second and third place after Seven-star Lamp had lost four levels. Hellfire had also leveled up twice in one night, but it was clear that it wouldn't be easy for him to catch up to me.
At the moment, it looked like my first place was pretty stable. As long as I continued to grind mobs, I would definitely be the first person to reach Level 80 and undergo the second class promotion. Therefore, I laughed and said, "Ling Xue, what leveling map did you choose today? Why are you so secretive about it? Why don't you tell me?"
Ling Xue smiled. "This is a quest map that I spent 4000 gold coins to unlock. You're lucky this time. Consider it your reward for last night's hard work …"
I was stunned for a moment before replying in disappointment, "That's it?"
"Yeah!
You won't regret it once you get there! "
After that, Ling Xue created a party of her own and pulled everyone into it. All eight members of Xue Yue Studio were present. Then, Ling Xue called two helpers. One of them was Jiang Nan's little Qiao, and the other was a quiet looking little girl. She was Ling Xue's classmate, the Level 57 priest "Dreamseeker".
I was a bit speechless. This time, she really brought three healers just to be on the safe side.
Ling Xue said with a smile, "This quest has a difficulty of 1500. Everyone, be prepared to die. If you don't die, you'll definitely have a great harvest tonight!"
After that, Ling Xue shared the quest in the party channel —
[Upwind Plains] (Current Quest Difficulty: 1500)
Description: Activate the teleportation formation and enter Upwind Plains. Please kill all the monsters in Upwind Plains, including the Flame Tiger King, Violent Thunder Tiger King, Nether Tiger King, and Adamantine Tiger King. Bring their heads back to the bounty officer!
… …
Both the girls and I were caught off guard. Ling Xue looked at our expressions and smiled proudly. "What do you think?
We have to kill three bosses in one quest. Amazing, right?
Just these three bosses alone have already determined that this mission will be filled with passion! "
Little Qiao of Jiangnan pursed her lips and smiled. "Yes, yes, yes. That's great. Originally, I would definitely not want to do such a mission. However, there are too many experts in this team today. Sister Shusheng and Sister Ling Yue are here. There's also the number one Priest, Sister Zi Yun 'er. Hehe, just this powerful lineup alone is enough to make me feel very excited, hoho ~ ~"
Dreamseeker also giggled. "Yeah, yeah, I'm so nervous to see so many legendary experts …"
Ling Xue smiled. "Don't be nervous. You'll get used to it. These people are our people. Aren't you all members of Snow Moon?"
Jiang Nan's little Qiao nodded. "Mn. In that case, can we depart now?
Where is our destination? "
Ling Xue raised her sword and said in high spirits, "Come with me!"
And so, a group of people left the city in a grandiose manner. This formation was indeed powerful. In this ten-man party, 9 of them were top-notch beauties. This formation was as spectacular as an emperor choosing his concubines. As for my role, yep, of course I wasn't a eunuch. At most, I could be considered an imperial bodyguard!
The passersby looked at us in astonishment and whispered, "Holy shit, Snow Moon's management is out leveling. Quick, turn on the recording system and follow us!"
However, Ling Xue led us straight through Moonlight Forest. An hour later, we found a hexagram magic formation in the depths of the forest. We stepped onto it, and in a flash of white light, we were teleported to the legendary Upwind Plains!
