Chapter 27: Forest Wood: Mentality Collapse!
“Green, what’s wrong?”
Unparalleled Plume noticed Green Collar’s abnormality and couldn’t help but ask.
“It’s… it’s nothing. It’s just that the Deity asked me if I still wanted to accept equipment. I’m thinking about it.”
“Yes! Of course! If our guild wants to develop, such a small number of people is definitely not enough! Moreover, the server has just opened. Most of the players don’t even have proper equipment on them. Of course, we can’t let go of this opportunity to develop!”
Unparalleled Plume was excited. “Have you forgotten what our goal is? To establish the largest Potion Guild in the entire server! With this equipment, our guild’s development speed can greatly increase! When the guild’s strength increases, we can obtain more resources to develop. If this continues, we will only become stronger and stronger!”
Green Collar nodded and made another trip to collect more than 100 pieces of equipment from Lin Bei. However, compared to the last time, there was only Iron and Bronze equipment this time. However, for the current Azure Plume Guild, it was enough!
“Do you think… the Deity’s talent is related to drops?”
Green Collar glanced at Unparalleled Plume and whispered.
“That’s very likely! Good maneuvers will only affect the leveling speed, but they won’t affect the drop rate of equipment. Moreover, the quality of these equipment is quite good. Under normal circ.u.mstances, you have to kill a bunch of lord-tier Bosses to obtain them. Therefore, I’m guessing that the talent of the Deity is related to the drop rate!”
Unparalleled Plume’s eyes sparkled and she said excitedly, “This is a powerful talent! If we can pull him into our guild, coupled with your talent, Green, we won’t have to worry about becoming stronger. Moreover, Deity’s maneuvers are also powerful; they are simply perfect!”
“Green, you have to hurry up. Think of a way to set a trap for him to join our guild!”
“Okay, I’ll try.”
…
On the other side, Lin Bei had already left Gloomy Jungle and was walking towards the Fishermen’s Bay in the east of Holy Light Village.
He was now Level 9 and had regained the number one position on the leaderboard from the player called Forest Wood.
Along the way, he took out the potions he had gotten from Green Collar and drank them all.
[You have used the Novice Underwater Breathing Potion. During the effective period, you can breathe freely in the water. Duration: 8.]
[You have used the Novice Resilience Potion. You have obtained 100% Critical Hit Immunity. Duration: 8.]
[You have used the Novice Movement Speed Potion” and received a 20% increase in speed. Duration: 8.]
[You have used the Novice Night Vision Potion and obtained night vision. Duration: 8.]
[You have used Novice Leap Potion. Leap +10. Duration: 8.]
[You have used the Novice Stealth Potion. After leaving the battle, you will enter Stealth state. Duration: 8.]
[You have used the Novice Eagle Eye Potion. All Critical Hit rates +10%. Duration: 8.]
[You have used the Novice Slowdown Potion. Attack has a 20% deceleration effect. Duration: 8.]
Eight bottles of potions, eight permanent Buffs!
This was especially true for the Novice Resilience Potion, which only lasted for 10 seconds. However, because of his talent bonus, the duration was directly permanent! It gave him a permanent damage reduction bonus!
In addition, the permanent Stealth was also very powerful!
When he left the battle, he could enter into the Stealth mode. It was simply a divine-level ability to kill and rob!
One had to know that an ordinary a.s.sa.s.sin’s Stealth skill could only last for 30 seconds at Level 1. Moreover, the cooldown time was as long as 3 minutes. It was very useless. However, Lin Bei was different. Not only did he have permanent Stealth, but he also did not need to waste potential points. If other a.s.sa.s.sins knew about this, they would probably curse, right?
“This Inner Peace fella. d.a.m.n you!”
Outside the novice village that was an unknown distance away from the Holy Light Village, Forest Wood looked at the skeleton soldiers slowly getting up from the ma.s.s grave and had a mental breakdown.
He had entered the game as soon as the server was released, so that he could s.n.a.t.c.h the first place on Heavenly Might’s Leveling-Up Leaderboard and obtain the most mysterious reward!
For this, he even spent a lot of money to hire a group of thugs to help him kill monsters and level up!
All he needed to do was kill all the monsters. His leveling speed was naturally ridiculously fast!
Moreover, he had broken several leveling-up records of Apollo because of this!
In his opinion, the first place on the leaderboard rankings was definitely his!
However, a dog had appeared!
That person, Inner Peace, was simply non-human! His leveling speed was so abstract that it made people doubt life!
Not only that, but this guy even went offline for two hours!
Initially, he thought that he was going to win, but who knew that this b.a.s.t.a.r.d would come online half an hour ago!
Yes, half an hour!
In just half an hour, he fell to second place again!
Not only did the other party return to first place, but he even surpa.s.sed him by one level!
It was ridiculous!
“d.a.m.n, if this isn’t cheating, what is? Is this leveling speed something a human can achieve?”
Forest Wood cursed, “Could it be that this guy has a talent that increases experience by a hundred times? Otherwise, why is he so much faster than me?”
[Your level ranking has dropped to third place!]
[Your level ranking has dropped to fourth place!]
[…]
Soon, a series of System notifications rang in his ears. Then, he suddenly realized that his ranking on the leaderboard had fallen to 21st!
“d.a.m.n, what the h.e.l.l!”
Forest Wood opened the leaderboard and saw that among the 20 people in front of him, other than the number one who was Inner Peace, there was a Azure Plume logo behind the names of the others!
“Did Azure Plume’s men take drugs? They’re so ferocious!”
Forest Wood shut up.
He had spent millions of Ocean Blue coins on this compet.i.tion, but now? He felt like a clown!
Suddenly, he received an unfamiliar private message.
Brother Chicken Is Big’s place was huge. “Brother, are you selling your account? I’ll buy it at a high price!”
Forest Wood frowned. “Not for sale!”
Brother Chicken Iis Big: “We can rent it too. We need a batch of high-level accounts above Level 5. We’ll rent it for 10,000 dollars a day. What do you think?”
Ten thousand a day?!
Forest Wood glanced at his ranking on the leaderboard and then at the dozens of accounts that helped him farm monsters and level up. His eyes lit up and he replied, “Alright, deal!”
“How many accounts do you have?”
“Including mine, there are a total of 40! All of them are above Level 6!”
“That’s great! Wait for my news and we’ll trade immediately!”
Brother Chicken Is Big was very excited. He said to Flying Dragon in the Sky, who was beside him, “Boss, it’s done! He has 40 accounts! And they are at least Level 6!”
“Really? That’s great! Quickly contact the players from those two professional teams! Let’s trade offline!”
Flying Dragon in the Sky’s eyes lit up and he logged off excitedly.
“Hmph, Combat Priest? Who do you think you are! I’ll kill you!”
…
“Achoo!”
Eh, that’s strange. Why did I sneeze? Did someone miss me?
However, the scenery by the sea was really good.
Lin Bei looked at the Fishermen’s Bay under the setting sun with a satisfied expression.
