We all decided to set off from Ba Huang City and so I took Odelia from Dragon City to there.
âSha shaâ¦â
My footsteps rang through the forest as I stepped onto branches and fallen leaves. When I broke through the thick brush and vines, I appeared before Ba Huang City. Odelia raised her sword and looked at the city, âOh, Ba Huang City⦠itâs been awhile since I was last here. I vaguely remember that the barley ale here was pretty good.â
I said, âAs a girl you actually want to drink that badly?â
Odelia made a fist with Holy Domain Energy and circled it around. She looked at me and smiled wickedly, âYoungster, have you seen a woman this strong?â
I whistled, âDonât even try. Frost is much stronger than you.â
âWuâ¦â Odelia furrowed her elegant brows, âYou b*st*rd, just you wait. Iâll train to be even stronger than Frost. Then⦠then Iâll lead an army of thousands of soldiers to your Dragon City and kidnap your Goddess Frost. Then Iâll sell her off to become the wife of a barbarian bandit!â
I smiled, âWith Frostâs strength, that half beast half man barbarian wouldnât even be able to raise a finger before her, isnât that right?â
âHmph!â
Odelia couldnât respond. She bit her lip and said, âLetâs go and enter Ba Huang City. Did you say that you were bringing four other friends along? Donât think any more about it. That pretty student of the Hermit God is one of them right?â
âSmart!â
âHmph. I pray for the day you guys break up!â
âB*tchâ¦â
â¦â¦
I strode into Ba Huang Cityâs territory. The four girls were already standing on the north bridge. Wan Er stood at the very front, adorned in her elegant leather armor. Her beautiful face was as beautiful as the moon. She smiled with her arms crossed as she leaned against the marble railings of the bridge. Her long legs were only slightly hidden by fluttering cloth.
Qing Qian was completely clothed in a fiery red armor. She held the Divine Tier Dagger, Blade of Purgatory while her Cold Iron Blade Shield pet was beside her. It was her new Valkyrie Tier BOSS pet. She patted its head as she giggled, âHercules, you better work hard. Donât let Brother Xiao Yao look down on you!â
I smiled inwardly. So this Cold Iron Blade Shield was called âHerculesâ. That was just too amusing. It made me think of how the red spider tried to fight against the gods.
Dong Cheng Yue was wearing a brand new mage robe while she played with a fiery staff in one hand. Beside her was a Sabertooth Tiger. The tiger was a Saint Tier BOSS type pet. It was the reward she got from the Defend the City points. It was an extremely strong pet. If my Ancient Holy Tiger hadnât evolved, then this Saber Tooth Tiger may even be stronger.
Darling Duck leaned against a pillar and waved her staff as she smiled, âGuildmaster, why donât you try the feeling of my new Fifth advancement healing skill!â
As she said that, she waved her staff. âShua!â A soft green light fell upon my body. I was stunned. I felt a warm feeling spread throughout my body. Yup. This was the level 100 healer skillââMagic Reflect Shell. It let the person being protected ignore a certain amount of magic attacks. This also meant that in the upcoming battles, this [Magic Reflect Shell] was going to be the strongest enemy against mages!
Afterwards, Darling Duck waved her staff again. At that moment, a glowing battle axe symbol appeared below my feetââ
âDi!â
Battle Notification: The Player Darling Duck has cast the effect [Hundred Battles] on you. Your physical attack and magic attack have increased by 25.7%. It will last for four minutes and 21 seconds. Leveling the skill will increase the duration of the skill. It is also directly related with the healerâs healing ability!
â¦â¦
[Hundred Battles] was another main skill for fifth advancement healers. It also greatly increased the ability of healers as a support class. Now there was nothing that could sway the top position as a BUFFer.
I swung my Dragon Reservoir Sword and smiled, âYup. Looks like everyone has gotten a lot stronger. Letâs go and head towards Beast Spirit Valley. Iâll share the quest with you all!â
Very soon, I successfully shared the quest with everyone. The four girls all appeared in my team list. Wan Er smiled, âLetâs head out and finish this quest quickly!â
With a flip of her cloak, the beautiful little miss lead the way. Dong Cheng and Qing Qian followed close behind. I lead my horse and took the rear, protecting Darling Duck. Even though the five of us were extremely strong, that didnât mean we should be careless. There were enemies throughout the forest outside. [Zhan Long] was the biggest winner in the Dragon City Battle, but that also meant that we had made too big of a splash. There were at least thousands of people out there that wanted to shake our position. Wang Zhe Cheng, Not Ordinary, and Soaring Dragon all wanted Wan Er, Dong Cheng, Qing Qian and the other main [Zhan Long] members to lose 50 levels or more.
When we entered into the Ba Huang City Forest, we began to move more quickly. Odelia then raised her long sword and walked behind me. Her clear eyes were filled with caution as she watched for everything around us. Even though she was the most wanted assassin on the continent, Odelia still dared to walk into Ba Huang City. That truly requires a lot of courage. On the other hand, Ba Huang City stopped going after her. Angela had forgiven all of her crimes. Odelia on the other hand, continued her old habits. Even if she were to commit a crime in Ba Huang City, it would probably be looked over due to her help with Frostâs revival. Plus, Angela needed all the help she could find, and definitely wouldnât want to offend this Holy Domain expert. Compared to her father and her brotherâs techniques, Angela was much softer and kinder.
â¦â¦
Throughout the way, we met multiple groups of Ba Huang City players grinding levels in the forest. Quite a few of the males would stare at the girls in our group with adoration. Some of them even whistled. Most of them could recognize Cang Tong, Cang Yue, and Qing Qian as the top three beauties in [Zhan Long]!
In the Butterfly Forest, not far ahead of us, there was a group of ten players grinding levels. One of them was a level 97 Barbarian Knight who looked at us. He whistled and shouted, âIsnât that Cang Tong and Cang Yue? F*ck, right on time. The NPC beside them doesnât look bad either, she just has a smaller chest!â
As he said that, he blew another whistle. In that single moment, he had enraged the female assassin in our group!
âDie!â
Odelia grunted and stomped the ground. âPeng!â A shockwave rushed through the forest. In the blink of an eye, she appeared before the Barbarian Knight. Her thin body rammed the barbarian so hard that he cashed into the tree right across. She the rushed forward, pressing her blade into his throat. Odeliaâs eyes were extremely cold and she smiled, âIf you have the guts, why donât you repeat what you said. Whose chest is small?â
The knight was stunned, âThis NPC actually dares to attack players?â
Odelia raised her hand. Flames rose up, swallowing the knightâs pet wolf in a split second. All that was left was a pile of ash. Odelia then smiled, âHowâs that?â
The Barbarian trembled violently and said, âYour⦠your chest isnât small. Itâs enormous and fullâ¦â
âThatâs about right!â
Odelia took her sword back and nimbly dashed back to us. The frightened barbarian knight nearly went into shock. If this pretty NPC lost her temper, then he wouldâve already lost his little life.
I strode forward and said, âLetâs continue forward. No need to bother with her. Sheâs too embarrassingâ¦â
Odelia ran in front of us and strode to my side, âThese stupid men. How could they understand the little secrets deep in a womanâs heartâ¦â
I didnât say anything else. Wan Er burst out in laughter and said, âLetâs hurry up. We shouldnât attract too much attention. Otherwise, once we get into the Beast Spirit Valley, then maybe other guilds will try and ruin our quest.â
âOk!â
â¦â¦
After walking for around 50 minutes, we finally reached the border of Ba Huang Cityâs territory. We stood on a piece of land that had yet to be developed. Weeds grew in a thicket before us. The map had a bright red âBeast Spirit Valleyâ written boldly above it. After all, we were standing at the entrance of the valley. The steel fortress stood before us. It was around 3 meters tall. Dwarves stood at the top of the wall. Their crossbows were only 1 meter tall. Otherwise, the short archers wouldnât have been able to reach them.
âHalt!â
A voice came from inside the fort. We could see a battle axe being swung around in the air, but we couldnât see anyone. The person continued, âWho are you, to dare and trespass on dwarven territory. Announce yourselves!â
Odelia put her hands on her hips and laughed, âWell lookie here.Who is it. Do they dare to stand up and talk? I canât see youâ¦â
On the city wall, the dwarf carrying the battle axe was incredibly angry. He leapt off the wall. He looked to be around 1.2 meters. He angrily shook his fist, âIâm already standing. You d*mn*d human woman. You dare to slander me. Tell me your name or die a death of a thousand arrows!â
Odelia giggled, âMy full name is Odelia - Da Fu. Remember it well and report it back to your Dwarven King. He will remember me!â
The dwarven general was stunned, âAlright then, Iâll report it nowâ¦â
â¦â¦
Around ten minutes later, a group of dwarves rushed to the top of the city wall. Among them, there was one that wore a purple crown on his head. He walked over to the city wall and said, âOdelia is here?â
At the bottom of the wall, Odelia smiled and said, âYour majesty the Dwarven King, do you still remember me? I was the one who used 1000 gallons of Buckwheat Ale for your 100 swords!â
âYouâre really Odelia?â
The Dwarven Kingâs face turned into a mask of rage and he suddenly pulled out his sword and pointed at us, âRelease your arrows and kill them all!â
â¦â¦
âSou Sou Souâ¦â
Arrows fell like rain. I was stunned and immediately charged forward. Then, I crossed my swords in front of my chest. At the same time, I activated [King Domain] to protect everyone. I then reached out, grabbed Darling Duck and rushed backwards, yelling, âHurry up and get out of their range!â
After retreating a hundred meters, we were all safe.
âOdelia!â
I glared at the Holy Domain assassin behind me and said, âDo you want to explain yourself?â
Odelia shifted her eyes and stuck her chest out angrily, âThat group of dumb dwarves really are evil. Without another word they actually dare raise a hand against an old friend. They have no idea of what loyalty and justice is. I cannot allow them to live another day in this world. Let me kill them all!â
I glared, âCut the crap. Iâll go talk with them!â
â¦â¦
I raised my Dragon Reservoir Sword and urged my horse to the bottom of the city wall and shouted, âI am the Dragon Rider of Dragon City, a student of Frost. We came here to make a deal, however I do not know how my friend Odelia has offended your majesty.â
The Dwarven King coldly laughed, âOdelia, that despicable b*st*rd. She said that she was going to use 1000 gallons of Buckwheat Ale in exchange for our long swords. However, only the top layer of the Buckwheat Ale was top quality. Everything in it was fake crap. It made 274 of our dwarven warriors get food poisoning. They had diarrea day after day. They even grew thinner!â
I turned around and glared at Odelia.
She smiled and raised her hands, âThat year the continent was plagued with bad weather so the harvest wasnât good. You have to understand me, dearest oneâ¦â
I was speechless.
