Chapter 386 Change in Tactics
After logging off, I began feeling hot all over. I sat up on the bed and numbly looked at my arm. Using my Yi Hai, I could see the aura surging through my arteries, but I kept feeling as though I couldn’t control this energy, a feeling that I never had before. Could it be that relentlessly battling in the game caused my energy to go out of control.
My arm suddenly shook fiercely as the white aura swirled around and scattered. I took a deep breath and forcefully suppressed the violent aura, allowing my body to calm down. I turned around and looked at the other bed. Glasses Bro was still in the game twitching. He should be in a very intense battle right now, but with his skills, he probably wouldn’t last the first 24 hours before he’s gets killed. That thought made me feel a little better.
After taking a quick cold shower, I called Wan Er. She was currently in the game and her voice sounded rushed: “Li Xiao Yao, you’re offline?”
“Yeah, Zhan Long is currently regrouping. Wan Er, do you and Dong Cheng have time to get offline and get something to eat?”
“Wait for me, the Fort Yuan Ling BOSS is really strong. Give us 5 minutes. We’ll log off when we finish the BOSS.
“Okay, I’ll wait at the entrance.”
“Okay!”
……
After waiting outside the girl’s dorms for awhile, Wan Er and Dong Cheng finally came down. Tang Qi also meandered over from the boy’s dorm in the 7th building. He was carrying four cups of milk tea over and he laughed, saying, “Here, drink some first! Everyone has been working hard!”
I took the milk tea cups and distributed them amongst the two girls, then asked, “What’s the situation like in Fan Shu City? It’s pretty fun battling against the NPC army right?”
Wan Er nodded and said, “In terms of obtaining equipments, Fan Shu players are getting it easy. There are at least 10 Valkyrie Tier BOSSES in Fort Yuan Ling, and over 30 Emperor Tier BOSSes. It’s only been 7 hours, and we’ve already killed five Emperor Tier BOSSes and two Valkyrie Tier ones. The only problem is that we’ve also suffered great losses. The NPCs’ levels are just too high. Sometimes, they’re practically crushing us. If it wasn’t for the Fan Shu City NPC army helping us battle, we might’ve already been annihilated….”
I was stunned, “You’ve already killed two Valkyrie Tier BOSSes? How come you’re so lucky…. You must’ve gotten quite a few high quality equipment right?”
Dong Cheng giggled, “Actually, Q-Sword only got a Valkyrie Tier armor and Wan Er got a Superior Valkyrie Tier dagger that has an attack that’s a little higher than your Cold Iron Sword. Now, all of her normal attacks deal at least 3000 damage. It’s so overpowering it’s scary…”
I was speechless. When I finally recovered I said, “Wow, I should hide whenever I see Wan Er from now on…..”
Wan Er shook her fist and said, “Why do you need to hide from me!”
I laughed and took a step back before asking, “Wan Er, what should we eat?”
“Let’s eat some western food, it’ll be faster.”
“Alright! Dong Cheng’s paying!”
Stunned, Dong Cheng opened her small mouth, “Why am I paying? Isn’t Sister* the one who usually freeloads?”
TL Note: She referring to herself
I pointed at Tang Qi, “Because you’re bringing this one!”
Dong Cheng gritted her teeth, “Tang Qi! You…”
Tang Qi quickly smiled apologetically, “Miss, I’ll do anything to pay you back. Just don’t get angry. I can’t win against Li Xiao Yao, so we can’t offend him right now…..”
Dong Cheng glared at me with her beautiful eyes, then grabbed my arm and said, “What do you mean by ‘we’? I’m with Brother Xiao Yao, you’re on your own…..”
Tang Qi facepalmed, “Damn, why do I get this urge to kill myself. Why don’t we go eat already. Otherwise, I’m afraid a poisonous energy will attack my heart and kill me.”
……
Going into the school dining hall, we filled the table up with steaks and salads amongst other things.
Tang Qi stared at me as I sat next to Wan Er. I couldn’t help but smile, “Tang Qi, you bastard, what are you looking at? Do you want to eat me up or something?”
Tang Qi was speechless. Finally, he said, “No way, I can’t even defeat you…”
Wan Er rubbed her lips and smiled, “I heard that the Tang sect in Si Chuan is an expert in poisons. You wouldn’t feed Li Xiao Yao any poison to kill him, would you?”
Tang Qi’s face turned green, “No way……. Definitely not? I’m not that kind of person….”
I smiled, “Wan Er, don’t worry. Using poison is enough to land him 50 years in prison!”
“That…..” Tang Qi grinned and said, “Why don’t we just happily eat. All this talk is making me sweat. Look, I was born under the red flag and I’m a beautiful young man who lived a happy childhood, how could I ever do something like that? Unless Li Xiao Yao does something to miss Dong Cheng, I would never do something like that….”
