Seeing the stats for the Hidden Dragon Armor, Wan Er couldnât keep her jaw closed. Finally, she smiled and said, âSeeing as [Thousand Layer Cliff] is such a thick armor, then pig should let me use him to grind my blades. Darling Duck can heal you. All I have to do is cut down your health 200 times and weâll be able to raise your defense by 200%. Add that on with your [Wall of Dou Qi] youâll have at least 50,000 defense. Do you have any idea what that means?â
Qing Qian smiled, âThat would be⦠A person would need a godly weapon that has a shield break capability in order to break Xiao Yaoâs defense. Besides, their shield break would have to at least surpass 30%. Otherwise, itâd be pointless to use it. The currently top players have a base attack of around 5000. Their equipment and skills bring that to 3 times at least. So they would have at least 20,000 defense. If their weapons donât have a shield break ability, then their attack wouldnât be nearly as high as Brother Xiao Yaoâs defenseâ¦â
Wan Er looked at her own dagger and smiled, âThankfully I doâ¦â
Qing Qian also glanced at her own Blade of Hell and smiled, My weapon also has around 40% shield breakâ¦â
Dong Cheng swung her staff and said, âI on the other hand donât. But with magic attack, no matter how high his defense is, heâd still cry out in painâ¦â
I was speechless.
â¦â¦
I raised my Dragon Reservoir Sword. âKa Cha!â I cut down Ming Junâs head. With that the quest notified that I had completed the portion. All I had to do was bring it to Frost and report back to her. And so, I put Ming Junâs head into the bag and said, âLetâs go. We need to go to Dragon City to report on the quest. This is an SSS Tier main quest and we luckily got our hands on Divine Tier and Saint Tier equipments.â
âYup, letâs go!â
Our team of five returned back. Outside of the Beast Spirit Valley, Fox was still leading his grinding team. We waved to them and then turned around to head to Dragon City. After half an hour of travel, we reached the walls. From a distance, the city walls invoked a sense of nostalgia. The laborers were smelting iron. On top of that, there were ten black cannons that were being slowly carted into the city.
âLord Dragon Rider!â
Qing Luo raised her long sword and smiled, âLooks like youâve already finished the task that Lady Frost gave you. Have we received permission to use the Beast Spirit Valley?â
I nodded, âYup, whatâs with those cannons?â
âOh? Those black cannons are the legendary Black Crystal Cannons. They were shipped from the Zhe Yuan City.â
âAh?â I was stunned, âWe have relations with Zhe Yuan City?â
âYes. We originally didnât, but since Lady Odelia has friends in Zhe Yuan City, Lady Frost spent a lot of resources to buy these ten Black Crystal Cannons. Plus the shipping cost, we spent a total of 400,000 Gold. On the good side, we got that gold from Ba Huang City.â
âSo it was like thatâ¦â I smiled, â Looks like Odelia still has some use for Dragon City.â
âOf course. Let me take you and your friends to go meet Lady Frost!â
âAlright!â
Qing Luo took our five man team up to Dragon City. When we were within the cityâs plaza, we saw a group of Dragon City soldiers training new recruits. Each one carried a longsword and roared as they funneled Dou Qi into their weapons. Afterwards, they whooped. The soldier morale was pretty good. Frost stood on a deck above the training grounds. She watched the new trainees and smiled, âThe graduates of the Academy of Ba Huang City really are good. All of them have reached the Earth level. If they can materialize their Dou Qi then weâll have a chance against the Hybrid Demons. Plus itâs free⦠they all came with a set of armor and a sword. Every month, each one gets 2G, and they donât spend more than 10G each. So affordable. I really want ten thousand of them. Too bad Angela isnât willing to give moreâ¦â¦â
When I heard her say that, I nearly spat out blood. I walked over and said, âFrost, weâre back!â
âYup.â
Frost turned around and smiled, âLi Xiao Yao, you must be bringing good news, right?â
I nodded. I pulled out Ming Junâs head and said, âThis is the commander of the barbarians in the Beast Spirit Valley. Heâs already been killed. Right now, we have permission to mine in the tunnels. Send people down there anytime!â
Frost grinned, âOk. I knew it, you wouldnât let me down. Having you in Dragon City really is our good fortune!â
I nodded with a smile, âYup. Do you have anything else?â
âNot at the moment. Here, this is your reward!â
âDing!â
System Notification: Congratulations, youâve completed the SSS Tier Quest [Beast Spirit Valley Mines], Youâve received the reward: Level Experience 40%, Charm+10, Gold+20000, Furthermore youâve received the reward item: [Thousand League Moonlight] (Saint Tier BOSS Mount)!
â¦â¦
âOh? A Saint Tier mount?â
I laughed. My luck today was pretty good. This quest wasnât even a main quest, and yet I was still able to get such a good mount? I took the mount egg out to take a look. It was pure white, and a white battle horse was carved into the surface. Yup, a white horse was in it. This was a dream mount for all players. From my memory, Zhao Yun and Zhou Yu, the most heroic of all heroes all rode on white horses. Of course, Liu Beiâs horse was also white. Even though the Liu Bei who rode it wasnât very strong.
âWhat, Pig did you get something? Looks at that happy face.â Wan Er smiled.
I raised the pet egg and said, âThousand League Moonlight, a Saint Tier BOSS level mount. Heâs a godly mount that can gallop for a thousand leagues under the moonlight. Itâs stats cannot be much worse than my Flying Scythe War Horseâsâ¦â
Wan Er bit her lip and said, âToo bad. Weâre assassins, so we canât ride mounts. Otherwise⦠wu wu, If only I knew at first, then I wouldâve chosen to be a swordsman insteadâ¦â
I hugged her thin shoulders and said, âDonât be regretful. Assassins can use [Camouflage], and you have the number one attack output. To have lots you must first learn to give up!â
Qing Qian then said, âNo matter what, Brother Xiao Yaoâs Flying Scythe War Horse is better. We should sell this pet egg. Or should we do something else?â
Without another thought I said, âLetâs give it to someone else. Who in [Zhan Long] needs it the most.â
As I said that, I opened up the conversation log and asked, âThat⦠I want to ask. Li Mu, Wang Jian, Old K, Bai Qi, Matcha, what are the mounts are you guys using?â
Li Mu said, âI have a black Valkyrie Tier BOSS mount. Wang Jian that youngster spent 50,000RMB to buy a Saint Tier not BOSS level Hundred League Smoke. Old K and Bai Qi are both using Valkyrie Tier Purple Chestnut Horses. As for Matchaâs mount⦠Eh, I donât know what it is at the moment. I donât think she has a mountâ¦â
I smiled, âMatcha, come on out. Are you using a mount right now?â
Matcha hesitantly said, âBoss, just this morning, I got a gold tier MountââMixed Breed Pale Moon. The stats arenât bad, but of course it canât match with the mounts that the others boughtâ¦â
I was a little speechless, âYup, alright then⦠wait for me at Ba Huang Cityâs North Gate. I just finished a quest and obtained a Thousand League Moonlight mount egg. Iâll give it to you. Youâre one of our people in the [Zhan Long] office. I need to take more care of you!â
âHuh? Really? Whatâs its level?â
âItâs a Saint Tier Level BOSS mount!â
âYes yes!! Thank you BOSS! I love you to death!!â
âHurry up and get over here then!â
âAlright!â
â¦â¦
âShua!â
The City Return Scroll took me right back to Ba Huang Cityâs North Plaza. Not long after, the beautiful Matchaâs figure appeared in a teleportation circle. She carried a shining sword in one hand and was dressed in armor. Her pale white cloak fluttered in the wind. She was a level 105 Knight, and was one of the top knights in [Zhan Long]. At the same time, Matcha brought another girl with her. It was a level 84 young female knight. Her equipment looked to be pretty good. She carried a flaming halberd with her. She looked at me with a grin. Xi Yao Ge Jing, if that wasnât my sister Li Meng Yao, who else would it be.
âBrother!â
Li Meng Yao walked forward and and acted cute, âYouâre giving the Thousand League Moonlight to Sister Macha, then what are you getting me⦠Iâm almost level 100 too. When are you going to give me a mount that runs fast?â
I smiled and rubbed her hair, âWork hard on grinding your levels. Only then will I give you one. Rushing from Level 84 to 100 will take at least half a month. Donât worry, I will definitely get my cute sister a mount!â
Li Meng Yao smiled, âAlright. Look at how nervous you are. Iâm just testing you. Iâll get my own mount. No way am I some kind of wimp that has to rely on her brother. I want to become brotherâs right hand!â
âYup, thatâs my little sister!â
As I finished talking, I took out the Thousand League Moonlight and handed it to Matcha. I almost didnât want to let go of it. It took her half a second to think of biting her finger to create a blood contract with her mount. In the next moment, a silver light flashed. A white battle horse slowly walked out of the dust and raised its head to whinnie. It was incredibly beautiful with a mane of shining hair. Matcha leapt onto the horse and excitedly cried out, âWoah, my health increased to 40,000⦠Even my attack power and defense power have increasedâ¦â
I walked forward and pet the Thousand League Moonlight and smiled, âJust the name is incredibly nice. Yup, this mount can last you until level 140 to level 150. I believe that this Thousand League Moonlight will become the dream mount of [Zhan Long].â
âYupâ¦â¦â
Matcha nodded with a blush.
I was a little stunned, âMatcha, whyâs your face so red?â
Li Meng Yao softly knocked my shoulder and said, âBrother, you idiot. Your hand is on Matchaâs leg. It must feel pretty nice right?â
I looked down. Matchaâs leg was across the horseâs back. There wasnât any armor wrapped around it. Just the thin muslin from the female armor. The feeling really was nice⦠I quickly took my hand off and apologized, âIâm sorry Matcha⦠It wasnât on purpose⦠That⦠Iâll leave first!â
Motherf*cker, thankfully I didnât let Wan Er see that. Otherwise, the jealous little miss wonât let me off easily.
Matcha on the other hand smiled to her Thousand League Moonlight and said âBoss is so terrifying, how are you going to pick up girls after this?â
I turned around and said, âWho said I was picking people upâ¦â
âOh?â Macha blinked a few times, âThat, boss, how far have you gone with Wan Er?â
I said, âEh⦠I havenât gotten that far. That isâ¦â
âHave you kissed?â
âThatâ¦â
âLooks like you have. Have you gone in bed yet?â
âNo!â
âHe he, you still have time to do that! Song Han said that females must have a big chest in order to sell their cutenessâ¦â Matcha giggled, âBoss, why donât you even dare look me in the eye?â
I glared at her, âIf you dare play more jokes on the guildmaster, then Iâll throw a flying kickâ¦â
âHmph, alright then. Thatâs right, BOSS. The beautiful Dong Cheng said that you guys are now living together in the university. Song Han said that heâs coming over tonight to steal some food. Why donât you make some preparations. Itâs already ten at night. Shall we come over to eat some hot pot? Howâs that?â
âThen come. Just bring your own ingredientsâ¦â
âYup yup!â
