Chapter 56: Hao Ran's Gentle and Carefree Upgrade

  Ding! System Prompt: Player Hao Ran requests a call with you...

  Gu Ting had heard or seen this name several times before, either defending himself on the forum or supporting him, and was also one of his biggest clients who bought his equipment.

  Upon answering the call, a calm voice came from the other end: "Gu Ting, hello! I'm Yang Yu Xuan. Nice to talk to you."

  Gu Ting asked curiously, "How do you know my name?"

  "You may not recognize me, but I've known you since before we started playing this game," Hao Ran's gentle and carefree voice replied.

  "I don't understand. You knew me before we played the game? I don't think I have any friends as wealthy as you," Gu Ting said.

  "Indeed, we're not exactly friends. The reason I've been supporting you in the game is because someone asked me to help you out. Unfortunately, you're much stronger than me, so you barely need my assistance," Hao Ran continued.

  "I'm calling you today for three reasons. Firstly, I hope you'll treat her well and not let her suffer any grievances. If you do, our Hao Qi Long Store's people won't forgive you. Secondly, do you still have that equipment you sold last time? I want it all, 150 million, and I'm willing to pay top dollar for the Qin Wu set. Thirdly, next time you get a Building Order, please consider selling it to me first. My price will definitely be higher than Miss's."

  Gu Ting listened to Hao Ran's words and couldn't help but laugh: "The last two things are negotiable, but I really don't know who 'she' is, so I don't know how to treat her well."

  Hao Ran sighed, "I'll tell you another time. Anyway, take care, and don't let anyone bully you in the game."

  As Gu Ting continued to kill monsters, his pet, Xiao Qi Lin, leveled up rapidly. Its appearance changed, with its white fur mixed with some red, making it look even more stylish.

  Xiao Qi Lin's introduction also changed from "Young Qi Lin" to: "Originally a heavenly guest, now accompanying you on your journey. Ancient divine beast Qi Lin, growth period."

  At level 20, Xiao Qi Lin could already kill monsters below level 20 with ease (of course, it was also because it didn't have any skills yet).

  Gu Ting looked at the package containing the Meng Chi egg and saw that it had also changed: "Ancient fierce beast Meng Chi, not hatched. Hatching conditions: absorb 100,000 residual souls... Current absorption count: 7,800/100,000..."

  Looking at these changes, Gu Ting felt relieved. He had been worried about how to hatch the Meng Chi egg, but now he just needed to let it absorb more residual souls.

  Gu Ting continued to kill monsters with Xiao Qi Lin, and after half a day of effort, Xiao Qi Lin reached level 50, while the Meng Chi egg was only short of 10,000 residual souls from hatching.

  Just as Gu Ting was enjoying himself, the system prompt sounded: "Your game time is up... Please log off within 30 minutes!"
