Chapter 71: Pen tube and ink tube
At this time, Bing Cha walked out. Seeing the beautiful scenery in the living room, she said with a snappy smile, “Stop playing you two! Bookworm, quickly log on. The Xue Yue Studio"s production players need 5000 gold coins and our money collection people have collected less than five hundred, so we can only rely on ourselves. Director Ling is already in the Hero Memorial Park, go and earn money with her!”
I gave a nod. Generally speaking, to a gaming studio, collecting money was something essential. Although it was a bit boring, thinking about being with a beauty like Ling Yue, it was actually quite enjoyable. Not to mention the fact that the skeletons in the Hero Memorial Park were higher level than me, so I could level while collecting money.
So I directly walked over and said to Zi Yue and Summer, “You two, go and level! You stay in one room, you can play at night if you want to play…..”
Zi Yue"s face turned red, “We didn"t……”
Summer said, “Zi Yue and I won"t play anymore. Just having a pen tube without the ink tube, we can"t write anything! Big brother Bookworm, do you want to help…..”
I instantly felt awkward. Bing Cha speechlessly said, “Summer, go to your room now! I really can"t take you!”
Summer laughed and slapped Zi Yue"s little b.u.t.t as she said, “Come, come. Let"s go level, we won"t log off unless we reach level 38!”
The two girls quickly rushed into their rooms. Bing Cha gave me a helpless smile, “Don"t mind them, those two girls are always like this….”
I said, “This is also good.”
“Oh? It"s like this…..”
Bing Cha"s smile had a deeper meaning.
I took out a bottle of c.o.ke from the fridge and returned to my room. I drank it while looking at the «Spirit of Grief» website. I found that the level ranking had changed again and I had fallen to eighth in China. The country was filled with great characters and I had been stepped over when I wasn"t paying attention!
I immediately logged on and appeared in Sunset City.
I looked into my inventory and after exchanging 2000 gold coins, I only had over 900 left. But with my current attack power, as well as my powerful Star Chasing Bow and High Level Thousand Bladed Arrows, I could be considered the ultimate money earning machine. 5000 gold coins weren"t anything for me.
Spending a few dozen gold coins to fix my equipment and filling up on potions and arrows, I left the city through the east gate. I hid my name and as long as no one fought with me, I could keep myself hidden without anyone trying to cause trouble with me.
After half an hour, I arrived at the Hero Memorial Park. Looking into the distance, there was a beautiful female mage using the Scarlet Flame Sea to play with a group of skeletons, looking like she was enjoying herself.
So I directly ran over and used two Thousand Bladed Arrows to clear out the low HP monsters. When Ling Yue saw me, she immediately pulled me into her party. What surprised me was that there were three other Xue Yue players who were only level 20.
As if seeing my thoughts, Ling Yue said with a faint smile, “They"re here to pick up the equipment and gold coins, that way we can focus on killing monsters…..”
I gave a nod. This was best, otherwise we would have to waste half the time picking up the gold coins. After all, with the coins falling onto the uneven cemetery ground, it was hard to dig them out.
After that, Zi Yue, Summer, and Bing Cha all logged on.
Summer and Zi Yue willingly came to Hero Memorial Park, following behind me to sweep the monsters, also taking quite a bit of the experience. Ling Xue and Bign Cha, these two swordswomen chose to level alone. Bing Cha had already changed Jobs, as well as having several Silver Equipment, not dragging far behind Ling Xue.
I found the dagger that Fated Bloodthirster had dropped and gave it to Zi Yue. The dagger was glowing, with waves of light flowing over it.
[Stalker] (Silver Equipment - Dagger)
Attack: 85-140
Agility: +15
Vitality: +9
Additional Stat: Increases user"s agility by 2%.
Required Level: 30
Seeing the powerful attack, Zi Yue couldn"t help being filled with joy as she gave a pa.s.sionate hug.
“Bookworm, how do you want me to thank you? Just tell me what you want and I"ll try my best to satisfy~” Zi Yue asked with a smile.
I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, the temptation was not small!
In the end, Ling Yue not far away looked over with her beautiful eyes and I felt a chill on my back. I immediately righteously declined Zi Yue"s beautiful intentions.
However, when Zi Yue revealed the stats of the dagger in the team chat, Ling Yue revealed a happy smile. After all, with Zi Yue, this a.s.sa.s.sin girl"s attack power increased, it increased the power of our studio which is definitely a good thing.
After an entire afternoon, until it was around seven at night, we kept killing monsters to level. The Spirit of Grief distribution of experience was well balanced, with me gaining over 90% experience with me dealing the majority of the damage. Zi Yue and Summer didn"t steal that much experience and I already reached level 43. As for Ling Yue who kept leveling the whole time, she was already level 45, being the top of China.
The girls counted the gold coins in their inventory. Ling Yue"s side collected a total of 3147 gold coins and my side"s Summer collected 1784 gold coins while Zi Yue collected 1180 gold coins. Zi Yue was clumsy, so I was already grateful that she could collect this much.
So, the 5000 gold coins required by the Blue Star Company was collected. Ling Yue ordered a trustworthy staff member to transport these gold coins. These 5000 gold coins were already worth 20000 RMB, it wasn"t a small number for me at least.
When I mentioned the matter of the Ancient Ghost Temple with Ling Yue, she happily agreed. After that, I was responsible for contacting Sword Flame"s Purple Rhyme. After all, Sword Flame"s people were close to me, so Ling Yue already silently accepted that I was the leader of Sword Flame.
Looking at my friend screen, I saw the Purple Rhyme had already reached level 40. It was very likely she was the first cleric to change Jobs, after all, clerics leveled slowly. A level 30 cleric could already be considered a treasure and a level 40 cleric with High Level Skills could be considered a country"s treasure.
The country treasure girl asked me with a laugh, “Why do you only think of me when you need something?”
I said, “There"s a lot of pressure to level….That"s right, has your cure reached High Level?”
Purple Rhyme said, “I already trained it this afternoon and my Prepared Resurrection has already reached High Level. Now I can keep it up for two hours!”
I was a bit surprised, “That powerful! How did you increase the Prepared Resurrection proficiency?”
Purple Rhyme gave a soft laugh as she said, “It"s very simple. I was at the Sunset City gate and brought a bag of blue potions, casting Prepared Resurrection for every player that pa.s.sed! They all treated me like Lei Feng…..”
[TL Note: Lei Feng is a member of the People"s Liberation Army who was regarded as a selfless and modest person.]
I was very speechless, “Keep going, perhaps you"ll be able to make money later!”
Purple Rhyme gave a snappy laugh, “It"s fine already. Some people contacted me today and they would pay me 1 gold coin per person I used the Prepared Resurrection on, but I felt it was too little, so I ignored them…..”
I revealed a smile, “Eat your dinner early. When you log on later, we"ll go to the Ancient Ghost Temple"s fifth floor!”
“Un, alright!”
