At noon, we went to the same cafe and ordered fast food. We needed to finish our meal quickly and then go back to grind. I was Level 142, and Lin Yixin was Level 139. We were both about to hit Level 150 because Level 150 was a huge turning point. Not only was it the moment fighters would get mounts and pets, but it was also the moment their own realms would increase. As for what realm it was, the official information didn't clearly state it. Players would have to figure it out for themselves.
… …
It was noon, and the cafe was quite busy. Groups of people were eating together. Lin Yixin and I were eating with our heads lowered. When I looked up, I noticed that she was also sneaking glances at me.
"What are you looking at?" I asked with a smile. "Do you want me to feed you?"
Lin Yixin blushed. "No!"
"Then why don't you eat already?"
"Mn!"
It was at this moment a few students behind me started chatting. Their enunciations were clear and perfect with a Suzhou accent — "Hey, did you guys hear? The people from Room 209, 211, and 213 of the Construction Engineering Department have all joined Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls. Everyone else is reading as normal:!"
"Eh?
Didn't they create their own trash guild?
How did they join Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls? "
"I don't know. Their guild leader somehow joined Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls and became the eighth subguild of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls. What the hell …"
"Tsk tsk, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls has always been strict when it comes to accepting new members. I didn't think they would accept these people. Remember the vicious fight last month? These people participated in it!"
"Yeah, they're a bunch of black sheep!"
"Yeah …"
… …
I couldn't help but frown when I heard the words of the students behind me. "Fuck, are they talking about Waste and Burn?"
"Waste and Burn?" Lin Yixin was surprised.
"Yes, it's a guild I just joined this morning. It's because I'm interested in a tactician in Waste and Burn, and I want to make him the number one tactician in the China server. That's why I added the guild to the eighth subguild."
"Oh, you're interested in their tactician?" Lin Yixin smiled meaningfully at me.
I glared at her. "Don't overthink it. That tactician is a man, not a girl. Why would I abuse my power to do something so despicable …"
Lin Yixin chuckled. "That's hard to say …"
Seeing that I couldn't restrain her any longer, I immediately took out a beautiful DLS-TT from my pocket and shook it. "Take a good look, I've been saving this all this time. Yiyi, if you dare to be arrogant again, I'll use it on you sooner or later!"
Lin Yixin's face immediately turned as red as a ripe apple. She waved her chopsticks at me and said, "Do you want to die, Lu Chen? Hmph, you're dreaming if you think you can use it on me. Everyone else, read it normally:!"
I said, "If you think it's not enough, I can go buy another dozen …"
Lin Yixin finally compromised. "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, okay?"
"Yes."
"That's right. You've taken in Waste and Burn, but didn't you check the quality of the guild?
Based on what I've heard from the players behind me, Waste and Burn doesn't seem to be a very righteous guild. Don't tell me you don't have any thoughts about this?
Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls has established itself in Sky City because of our tough style and our principle of not bullying the strong. Don't ruin the image and reputation of our guild because of an eighth guild. "
"Mn, I got it. Don't worry, I can handle this!"
"Mn, let's eat!"
… …
After we finished eating, I sent Lin Yixin back to school and quickly returned to the workshop. I was ready to go online and grind!
Swhoosh!
We appeared in Sky Forest and crawled out of the tent. The system notified me that my Hunger bar had dropped below 50%, so I took out a piece of venison from my bag. This thing could instantly restore 10% of my Hunger bar, and most players relied on it to fill their stomachs ever since they leveled up. I ate five pieces of venison in a row and filled my stomach. At the same time, Lin Yixin also crawled out of the tent and said, "Let's go. Our destination is Dragonbone Mountain Range!"
“OK！”
Lin Yixin didn't summon her mount. She probably didn't want to upset me, so she simply walked side by side with me. We looked more like a couple sightseeing in the forest than adventurers. The Sky Obsidian Greedy Wolf scuttled back and forth in a lively manner. Lin Yixin's Ice Fox was an adult, but it was still only the size of a kitten. It climbed up its beautiful master's arm and perched on Lin Yixin's shoulder. Its beautiful fur fluttered slightly in the wind, and it was surrounded by an intimidating aura of ice. Once this thing reached adulthood, its ice attack would be terrifying, and it was also one of the reasons Lin Yixin was able to level up so quickly. The other book friends looked at it normally:
I flipped through the system information for a while before saying, "Fuck, more than half of Dragonbone Mountain Range is occupied by players. We need to climb to 20% of the peak before we can grind mobs without worry. However, we won't run into any NPCs or receive any quests there, so our leveling speed will be greatly reduced."
Lin Yixin smiled, and two beautiful dimples appeared on her beautiful cheeks. "Um … I know a leveling spot that I've always wanted to go, but I couldn't find a strong party member. Since you're here today, let's go together. It's a leveling spot where you can accept repeated quests …"
"Ah?
Why didn't you tell me about such a good place before? "
"I was afraid that you'd bring all of Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls there. That map can only hold 5 to 10 people, and with our DPS, it'll be easy to grind there!"
"Alright, we'll talk when we get there. Yiyi, you lead the team!"
"Mn!"
After I promoted Lin Yixin to the party leader, she immediately activated Bombshell. Right now, Bombshell's effect was at 80%, the maximum value of the skill. Even so, this 80% increase was still very impressive. This was especially true for my current stats. After the 80% increase, my base Attack was 6210, and it was only a matter of time before my actual Attack exceeded 10000. Even my max HP had risen to over 53000, and my base Defense was 7317. Tsk tsk, with these stats, I wouldn't have to struggle even if I grinded Level 160 shadow-rank mobs.
… …
After we reached the foot of Dragonbone Mountain Range, Lin Yixin and I tacitly hid our names and equipment luster. This way, we would look no different from ordinary players with unique equipment. At the same time, I pulled up the Soul Suppressing Cloak and covered my face and eyes. This was the Asura King's distinguishing feature, and it would be easy for people to stare at me if I were to reveal it.
Lin Yixin also hid her beautiful face under her battle robes and followed closely behind me. There were just too many people here, and if anyone discovered that she was the Fruit Knife Goddess, she would have a hard time dealing with all the requests for a selfie or a body hug. Fans of the book also loved to read: "The Fruit Knife Goddess".
It wasn't long before a Level 117 barbarian magic knight riding a wild boar came up to us. He raised his spear and shouted, "Hey, two friends. You're not in a party?
How about you team up with me to kill the Level 127 Hill Porcupines at the waist of the mountain?
The experience is great, and it'll help you reach Level 130 sooner! "
I couldn't help but think, "I'm already Level 142. Should I go back to Level 130?"
Lin Yixin burst into a giggle before replying in a sweet voice, "It's fine. Big bro and I are going to the mountains to gather herbs. We're not leveling. Thank you for the invitation …"
"Oh?" The barbarian magic knight wasn't particularly intelligent, so he nodded and said, "Then I won't bother you anymore."
I put an arm around Lin Yixin's shoulder and said with a smile, "Yo, my good little sister …"
"Fuck!"
Lin Yixin bumped me lightly with her shoulder. "Why do you sound like Ximen Qing?"
I replied, "Don't talk nonsense. Let's go to the leveling spot you mentioned!"
"Mn."
… …
The two of them followed the mountain path for nearly half an hour. Finally, they arrived at an area near the top of the mountain. The monsters here were all Level 145-plus shadow-rank monsters. The higher they were, the more EXP they gave, and the more ferocious they were. Players below Level 125 basically had no hope against these monsters.
"We're almost there …"
Lin Yixin smiled and pointed to the front. "Look, it's at the entrance of that valley!"
"Whoa whoa, quest, quest!" I gripped the Cyan Netherworld Sword and ran like crazy.
When I reached the top of the hill, I was shocked by what I saw. It was a wide valley filled with undead mobs of all sizes, and the Corrosive Worms made up the majority of them. These strange creatures had three legs, moved incredibly fast, and attacked people with their sharp teeth. Their mouths were closed, and once they opened their mouths, their mouths would be bigger than their heads. Their heads were triangular, and they looked like venomous snakes. They were extremely vicious, and they were triangular in shape.
I approached one of them and waved my hand. Its stats immediately appeared in front of me — [Corrosive Worm] (Ancient) Level: 160 Attack: 2100 ~ 2550 Defense: 2750 HP: 190000 Skills: [Devour], [Rend], [Corrosive Poison] Introduction: An anomaly of the purgatory. These Corrosive Worms are born from corpses, and they have extremely sharp fangs. They are the backbone of the Night Creature army, and their numbers are astonishing...
I looked up and saw an ocean of Corrosive Worms. Moreover, there was a very disgusting big worm flying around in the sky, dropping a ton of Corrosive Worms, Corpse Eaters, Cave Devils and more. It looked like the Night Creature army was preparing for an attack, and they were using the peak of Dragonbone Mountain Range as their entry point. These Night Creatures were getting smarter and smarter. That being said, these worms … Is this the amount that Lin Yixin said would be enough for 5 to 10 people to grind?
In my opinion, even if a thousand people were to come here, they would most likely be drowned by the sea of insects.
"Hey, stop looking. Let's accept the quest first," Lin Yixin said.
"Mn. Where are the NPCs?"
"Over there!"
The two of us quickly circled to the other side of the valley. To my surprise, there was a temporary camp made of stone behind a giant boulder. There were almost a hundred NPCs guarding the camp, and one of them was a scout captain with a big beard. He was standing there with a greatsword in his hand, gulping down a huge mouthful of wine from a wine bottle. Then, he laughed heartily. "Hahahaha, adventurers from afar, do you want more gold?
How long has it been since you touched a woman's breasts?
Hahaha, come, kill 1000 Dark Worms, and you will get 1000 gold. With gold, the women will take off their clothes and crawl into your tent, hahahahaha … "
