“3！”
I raised three fingers. Strictly speaking, they were three skeletal fingers with flesh and blood on them.
Gui Guzi stared at the great enemy in front of him. Once he revived, his corpse would immediately stand up. Wind Fantasy, on the other hand, stood ten meters away without a care. He seemed to be waiting for us to revive. He didn't care that two Night Creatures were working together.
“2！”
I held my breath and prepared to click on the revive interface.
“1！”
Revive!
Gui Guzi was a kind person, so he resurrected with me. The two of us drank a health potion at almost the same time and charged toward Wind Fantasy in two different directions!
"Ha...?"
Wind Fantasy seemed to be mocking Gui Guzi. Suddenly, he charged straight at Gui Guzi, his white robes fluttering in the wind. The glowing longsword in his hand was intimidating, and he took the initiative to attack Gui Guzi.
"Hmph, hit me?
Come on — hah! "
Gui Guzi was a proud person and didn't back down in the slightest.
Wind Fantasy was very daring. He feinted and tricked Gui Guzi into attacking. Then, he turned around and slid past the other's spear. At the same time, his sword slashed across Gui Guzi's neck. His movements were smooth like flowing water. He had the demeanor of a master.
Crack!
The silver sword cut across Gui Guzi's neck, and a huge damage number rose above his head — 558!
It was a critical hit!
Thump!
Gui Guzi fell to his knees with a dazed expression. He died again!
At the same time, killing intent descended on Wind Fantasy before he could turn around. It was my fierce Slayer Slash. I pounced like a cheetah, my green blade wrapped in a layer of green light.
Wind Fantasy was caught off guard and could only be hit. Slayer Slash pressed heavily against his shoulder.
Puchi!
Blood splattered everywhere, staining my white battle robe red. Without waiting for him to recover, I rushed forward and swung my sword. Like a venomous snake, the blade of my sword drilled into his chest!
“327！”
“221！”
With two consecutive attacks, I was able to display my speed and attack power to the fullest. Fans of the book also loved to read: "."
Wind Fantasy's HP was emptied. He slowly fell down and lost a level.
… …
"Hmph, motherf * cker … it hurts!"
Gui Guzi revived, walked up and kicked Wind Fantasy's corpse. He said unwillingly, "Sinks into Sand, let's camp his corpse. This person is the highest level player in Floating Ice City. Even after dropping a level to 25, he's still number one. Let's camp him for a day and night. Let's see if he can still be number one!"
I couldn't help but laugh. I patted his shoulder and said, "You stay here, I'm going to level up. Also, even if I camp his corpse, I can't guarantee that I'll be able to kill him …"
I wasn't being humble. Gui Guzi and I had just barely managed to kill this person by teaming up with him. If I fought him one-on-one, my chances of winning might not even be over 50%!
I looked at my levels. I had dropped to Level 22, and Gui Guzi had dropped to Level 21. Both of them were out of Floating Ice City's Heavenly Ranking. The ground was littered with corpses. The dozen or so Mad Dragon members had all died here. The first on the Heavenly Ranking, Wind Fantasy, had also been killed here. Frost Mound was the territory of the Night Creatures. As expected, there was a storm of blood.
Looking at Sentinel Leader Fark's corpse, Gui Guzi said, "Non-boss NPCs like this can only revive after 24 hours. We definitely won't be able to receive a quest today."
"Really?"
I smiled slightly and did not say anything. I turned and entered Frost Mound. I replenished my potions and repaired my equipment. Then, I walked alone on the icy path into the forest.
No matter what, I had to get to Level 25 first. If I could equip the Weeping Fire Blade and Cyanfire Cloak, I believed that I would not be inferior to Wind Fantasy in direct combat.
I found a leveling spot at the edge of the graveyard. Level 25 Bone Spear Night Creature. Its Attack was not great, but it gave a lot of experience. In a situation where there were no quests to do, it could be leveled.
"Cluck cluck..."
A neutral creature appeared in front of me — Wild Chicken. It was a Level 20 Wild Chicken with very low Attack and HP. I killed it with two slashes and its corpse collapsed to the ground. I walked forward and used Undead Plunder!
"Ding!"
System Notice: Congratulations, you have obtained an egg (Quality 4)!
There was nothing else. I ate the raw egg and recovered 4 points of Satiety. This was far worse than Xinran's Oatmeal Bread.
I raised my hand and used Summon Undead!
"Hiss hiss..."
The Wild Chicken on the ground struggled to stand up. It was a gorgeous Wild Chicken Skeleton. It had already become a Level 10 Demonic Servant. Its Attributes had been greatly reduced. This Summon Undead skill was really useless.
I continued to grind. After killing skeletons for more than four hours, I barely reached Level 24. At this time, Du Thirteen sent me a message: "Lu Chen, I'm Level 17. Fast enough, right?
We've been grinding for more than ten hours. It's time to log off, eat something, and rest! "
"Alright, I'll log off immediately!"
I sprinted all the way back to Frost Mound. The corpses of the Mad Dragon guild members had resurrected and left. Wind Fantasy was nowhere to be seen. He was now Level 27, still far ahead of us.
When I entered the graveyard, I found Gui Guzi digging a grave. He smiled darkly at me. "Home from work?"
My heart skipped a beat and I said with a smile, "Yes!
You're going home too? "
"Yes, good night. Sweet dreams!"
"..."
After I logged off, I noticed that it was already past three in the afternoon of the next day. However, I still felt refreshed, as if I had turned into Ultraman after being poisoned with meth. My body was full of energy. Of course, when I stood up, I still felt a little dizzy, which confirmed that this body was still human. Book fans loved to read:
After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I followed Du Thirteen to the restaurant downstairs. I ordered a bottle of Erguotou and cooked a few side dishes. This was a Hunan restaurant, and the food was delicious. The boss was a young woman around thirty years old. She had a slender waist and a large butt. When she walked, she was very sexy. In Du Thirteen's words, she was "out of the water". Therefore, this was a place where Du Thirteen and I often came to have fun.
Thirteen drained his cup in one gulp, his eyebrows furrowed like he'd been shot. He stared at the Lady Boss's butt and said with a smile, "Lu Chen, there have been quite a few girls interested in you over the years, but why haven't you taken a liking to any of them?
Take Tan Xue from the Foreign Languages Department as an example. At the time, she was clearly interested in you. "
"Tan Xue, who is Tan Xue?" I drained my cup and asked in confusion.
"Fuck..." Du Thirteen glared at me and said, "In the third year of university, it snowed heavily in Suzhou. She sent you a message saying, 'It's snowing outside. It's so beautiful, let's go watch the snow together.'
Think about it, what did you reply... "
I thought for a moment. "What did I reply?
I forgot... "
"Fuck..." Du Thirteen slapped the table with a look of exasperation. "You replied: Only an idiot would go out on such a cold day!"
"Fuck!" I slapped the table. "There's such a thing?!"
Du Thirteen toasted me and said sincerely, "You're not young anymore. You should find a woman to accompany you a long time ago. Look at me, I'm doing great …"
"Good what?"
I smiled. "Are you trying to say that you're flirting with other women? From Suzhou to Shanghai, there are women calling your name in every corner of the world?"
Du Thirteen stilled. "Fuck, you know?
Yes, that's it. How can you not have a girlfriend? "
I shook my head and smiled faintly. "Forget it, those are not suitable for me. Book fans like to read."
"Not suitable?
You don't like her, do you? "
Du Thirteen was helpless. "Tan Xue was the beauty of the Foreign Languages Department. If you don't even like her, I don't know what you like..."
As he spoke, he seemed to think of something and his eyes lit up. He said, "Yes, a woman like He Yi is the best in the world, but... brother, can you control a woman like that?"
I looked out the window and murmured, "I never thought about those things..."
Du Thirteen stared at me. A moment later, he shook his head. "Forget it, you are just like Tan Xue said back then. You are a block of wood, a block of wood that will never change!"
I smiled. "I can live well without a woman. Let's talk about our future development plans?"
Du Thirteen was interested. "Yes, I am almost Level 20. When I reach Level 25, I will learn a subclass. What do you think I should do?
Potioneering, Lumbering, Gathering, Forging, Tailoring? "
"Up to you. The important thing is to make money."
"Forging will be profitable in the later stages. I will learn Forging."
"Yes!"
Du Thirteen smiled, full of longing. He said, "Lu Chen, when our levels are high, it is time to raise our flag and form our own guild!"
"Yes!"
I clenched my fists and said, "Create a new guild, ignore all justice, rules, and popularity. We will kill tyrannical guilds like Mad Dragon, and sweep away all the forces in Floating Ice City!"
"Haha, I have the same idea!"
Du Thirteen was excited. "Boss, two more bottles of Erguotou!"
