I logged off at around 4 in the afternoon, ate a quick box lunch with Wan Er and Dong Cheng Yue and then returned to the dorm to go online. Everyone was ready to go and wanted to take advantage of the experience of the SS rank quest!
……
“Swoosh!”
Afternoon, around 5 p.m: I spawned in the Green Grain Valley when I signed online. Feng Hua had already left from the room and I had no reason to stay so I used my Return Scroll to go back to Ba Huang City!
I invited Wolf, Old K, Fox, Matcha and the rest into the party until Zhan Long’s 7 core members were all in the party. We all met up at the Northern Market Area. At the same time, I messaged Wan Er, “Miss, where is the starting point of the quest?”
Wan Er answered, “At the junction of Jiu Li City, Fan Shu City and Ba Huang City. It is called Cruel Leaf Valley. Specific coordinates: Jiu Li City (47882, 90182). The monsters’ levels there are pretty high–at least Lv 60. Be careful and don’t rush. It should be fine if you arrive in about an hour.”
I replied, “Ah, I understand. See you at Cruel Leaf Valley!”
“Yup!”
……
I turned around and looked at the Zhan Long Studio’s members. I told everyone, “Let’s verify again: all the equipment is repaired, full on potions, pardon cards and sealing cards. We got them all?”
Wolf nodded, “Don’t worry brother Xiao Yao, I already checked.”
Matcha held her sword, walked over to me and smiled, “Boss, could this SS-rank quest raise my level to 45ish?”
I looked at her. She was already Lv 39. While planning ahead, I said, “Definitely possible. Once we enter the zone for the quest, Matcha will stand in the back. Don’t get near any monsters. Your level is the lowest, so be a good ‘experience baby’ again.”
“Ah! Let’s go?”
“Let’s go!”
The seven of us left the city together. Dong Cheng Lei was up front, opening up a path. In his hands was a battle axe covered in golden flames; his entire body had a golden hue. This set of equipment caused Old K a great deal of jealousy, since both of them were second promotion berserkers. However, Old K’s items were completely overwhelmed by Dong Cheng Lei’s, but there was nothing he could do about it. We started with nothing. Dong Cheng Yue spent RMB to gear up Dong Cheng Lei. There was no comparison.
“Brother Xiao Yao?”
Dong Cheng Lei smiled in a simple manner, “Is Yue Er, that little brat, coming along with us as well?”
I nodded my head, “Yea. Dong Cheng, Wan Er and Yuzi Chengshuo. Those 3 are together. We will meet at the quest location. What’s up Lei? Is there a problem?”
Dong Cheng Lei rubbed his head and smiled, “Nothing. However, my dad told me to protect my younger sister. This time the quest is so dangerous, I will protect her well. She is my only sister; I can’t let her suffer any injuries.”
I couldn’t help but smile, “Good, that’s the spirit Lei. Don’t worry, we will all protect Dong Cheng Yue. Unless we all die, no monster will even touch a strand of her hair!”
Matcha was flying in the air, with a deadpan expression, “Boss really likes to use figure of speech……”
I didn’t respond. Raising my hand, with a sharp sound, I drew Frost Rain Sword. In a lowered voice, I said, “There will be a lot of monsters on the road and we can’t suffer any losses. Old K, Ah Lei, Wolf, the 3 of you will follow me to the front. We will open up a path. Matcha and Fox protect Darling!”
“Yes!”
Inside of the Ba Huang Forest, there were many different types of monsters. On the road, there were Lv 30-55 monsters with some rare Elite Monsters mixed. You could only encounter Elite Monsters in Green Qilin Abyss and Fire Stone Canyon zones. Otherwise, Elite Monsters wouldn’t be so valuable in experience and drops.
“Slash!”
