Chapter 1612: Innocent
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Since they couldn’t call people to come, then would they simply be beaten?
Who would want to be hit like that for no reason? That was why everyone went offline almost instantaneously.
As long as someone took the lead, others would follow suit. They all quickly went offline and
concealed themselves.
As for what they would do after they went back online, they hadn’t thought about that. No one sent any information at all to report on the situation. Perhaps those people innocently thought that after that little beating, it was all over.
Lu Li didn’t partic.i.p.ate in this a.s.sault; he simply didn’t need to play a part himself.
He and Water Fairy didn’t stay to watch the show. With Her Tears there, Lu Li wasn’t really worried. However, he knew that this altercation wasn’t over. It was Drizzle Court’s reaction that would be the problem that Great Wave had to deal with.
Lu Li didn’t sympathise with the other side’s way of thinking. Everyone had to make amends for their own behaviour.
Great Wave’s people were really a little too arrogant. If they hadn’t encountered Lu Li and Water Fairy, they would still be bullying their poor victims.
“Don’t pay attention to these people. Quick, just hand in the quest. There’s a real chance you’ll get Skill Points,” Lu Li urged.
“What are you doing? Why are you so excited? It’s not you getting Skill Points,” Water Fairy said, certainly not losing her judgement because of her antic.i.p.ation. She still thought Lu Li was a bit impatient, and even more nervous than her.
“Uh…” Lu Li froze up a bit, not knowing what he should say.
Alas, his heart was really burnt out. It was completely different to what the walkthrough described. Why was reality and what he envisioned with the walkthrough so different?
Lu Li had no choice but to pin his hopes on Skill Points.
The two appeared before the Ram Racing Master. The Female Tyc.o.o.n lined up to hand in the quest, while Lu Li followed at the back, waiting for the result.
“Wow, Skill Points! I got Skill Points!”
This wasn’t Water Fairy. The person right at the front had seemed to have received Skill Points, and on the spot, he jumped up and down in excitement.
Lu Li had a look. That person was male, and the person next to him was also male. They looked like they were only hugging, but definitely not kissing. That would just be too nauseating.
One after another went on up, receiving their quest reward.
Different levelled players had different expectations for their reward. For those in the most difficult situation, if they could gain a few gold, they wouldn’t feel like struggling in this Ram Race was all for nothing. If they could receive a piece of Dark Gold equipment with decent attributes, then they really might just jump for joy right then and there.
However, elite players were only interested in the few top rewards.
At Lu Li and Water Fairy’s level, it was probably only Skill Points that would excite.
No Skill Points were given out, all the way until Water Fairy’s turn. Her originally calm mood became more and more unstable as anxiety flooded into her beautiful eyes. Every now and then, she would crane her neck to see roughly what time it would be before her turn.
Lu Li could only comfort her softly, letting her know that there was only a small chance of getting Skill Points, and even if she didn’t receive one, she shouldn’t worry too much.
However, hearing this only stirred her up more.
Fortunately, the Ram Racing Master was going through his job efficiently, confirming the players’ details and rank, and giving out the reward. Very soon, it was Water Fairy’s turn.
“Child, you did extremely well. In a fierce compet.i.tion, you were the champion of the ram race. Now, here’s a reward. I hope you have fun at Brewfest,” Neill Ramstein said with a face full of fatigue, although he tried his best to show a professional smile.
“Thank you, master,” Water Fairy said, thanking him with great politeness.
Afterwards, she was rigid for a bit. When she was receiving the reward the System gave, Lu Li was waiting with his neck stretched.
Water Fairy’s expression was first dazed, as if she had heard something she didn’t believe in. After that, she felt a pleasant surprise like the previous player. In fact, she was even more excited.
Skill Points were also very precious to normal players, but they had much potential. If they added a piece of equipment, it would increase their power by a substantial amount.
However, for Water Fairy, it difficult to find equipment that could considerably increase her power. It was only these Skill Points that could noticeably improve her strength.
Without being able to help herself, she went and hugged those around her that she knew well.
The Female Tyc.o.o.n wasn’t the most flexible. If there wasn’t anyone around her that she knew well, she would really look like a pervert.
As luck would have it, Lu Li was in the category of people she knew well. Although he was a male, when Water Fairy went on hugging, she didn’t care about it at all. Maybe in her subconscious, she was wanting to get closer to Lu Li.
Lu Li was so happy in his heart, but on the outside, he looked like he had been really flattered.
Water Fairy thought about how she had unexpectedly gotten this one in a million chance of a Skill Point. Even Lu Li didn’t receive one; he was really too pitiful. In expressing her own happiness and giving comfort to Lu Li, she decided to do something.
She gave a fragrant kiss to Lu Li’s old face.
Very few people were able to enjoy this sort of treatment. Even less people would have this chance after their mother pa.s.sed away.
It looked as if Lu Li had been shocked by the buoyancy of that soft, warm, hug he had just received. It was only at this time that he came back to his senses. He turned, looking to hug some of his own people, but it was just at this time that Water Fairy came close.
In a moment, both Lu Li and Water Fairy felt that something incomprehensible had touched their lips.
People near them looked at them, their eyes filled with envy.
What Water Fairy was wearing today was a whole set of fas.h.i.+onable hunter’s clothes. On her face was a uniquely-shaped mask that looked like a b.u.t.terfly. Apart from her lovely, gentle eyes, her pink, moisturised lips were also particularly alluring.
Everyone wasn’t sure if they should be envying the girl who had received a Skill Point as a reward, or envying the boy who was with her.
The people around them were all nervous for them. They were joined by the lips, but they weren’t moving. What was going on? Some of the guys were itching to kick Lu Li away.
“You, what are you doing?”
This was Water Fairy’s reaction, pus.h.i.+ng away Lu Li. And Lu Li, being pushed away, had an innocent, but alarmed look on his face.
Water Fairy was immediately at a loss for words.
