Chapter Thirty-Eight Do Well Yourself

  "The fox, the details of the dark wings have been investigated."

  "A human archer, level 14, with pretty ordinary equipment, should be a player who's relatively lucky."

  "Is it just luck? The Flame Lord was also brought down by him leading a team, is that just luck too?"

  "So you mean he's an expert?"

  "Not an ordinary player at all, I suspect the server's first Glorious Event was his handiwork."

  "Are you saying that the one who killed the Wild Boar King is him?"

  "Hmm, although he didn't announce his name, did you notice that the system's censorship words are two."

  "Dark Wings!"

  "Regardless of whether my guess is right or wrong, you continue gathering information and make sure to build a good relationship with him first."

  "Good."

  ……

  Li Yi hailed a taxi and headed for Chu Nan's mansion.

  He didn't go online today because of Chu Nan's birthday party. As one of the invited guests, he naturally had to attend.

  Sitting in a taxi, Li Yi couldn't help but secretly sigh at the huge difference between his past and present lives.

  In my past life, I seemed to be alone all the time. Except for graduation reunions, it seems like I haven't been in touch with any of my classmates.

  The taxi stopped and Li Yi got out of the car and walked into the luxurious mansion in front of him.

  This is his first time coming to Chu Nan's home.

  The luxurious living room was crowded with people, each dressed in their finest attire, showcasing their status.

  "Li Yi, over here!"

  Yao Li was the first to see him and waved at him.

  The Chu family specially set aside a living room for entertaining Chu Nan's classmates.

  Many students came, both boys and girls, with a number of at least over a hundred, sitting in the room making a big noise.

  "You've joined your dad's company? That was quick, I haven't found a job yet."

  "Envy, jealousy and hatred! Reincarnation is indeed a subject of study. When will you help your brothers?"

  "Do you know what Lili is doing? She opened a store selling Gu Long perfume and became the boss."

  "Really? I didn't notice it when we were in school, and I've never seen her wear perfume either..."

  Although it's not long after graduation, when classmates get together, the most talked-about topic has already evolved from casual chat to life goals.

  Some people found a good job, some became big bosses, and some made a fortune. All of these have become objects for mutual comparison.

  As expected, once people step into society, their innocence can never be found again.

  Li Yi sat in a corner and chatted with Yao Li.

  They both play God games, and naturally their conversation topics are also related to the game.

  "Hey, isn't this Li Yitong, the big professional gamer? I heard you've been making a fortune playing games lately? You've earned several thousand already?"

  Just as the two were chatting enthusiastically, Hu Dezhi swaggered over and sat down.

  Li Yi's face suddenly sank.

  Hu Dezhi was a classmate of his, and the two had a bad relationship since they were in school. Hu Dezhi liked to form cliques and be the leader of the hoodlums, and he could manipulate all the classmates in the class, but Li Yi never gave him face.

  Two people had a fight, and that time Hu Dezhi brought two people, but as a result, Li Yi was cleaned up by himself. This matter made Hu Dezhi lose face in school, in order to regain his reputation, he found several young hooligans who wanted to teach Li Yi a lesson, but unexpectedly, those young people were all mixed with Chen Yang, the young people not only did not move against Li Yi, but also told "Yang Ge" about it when they returned.

  Then disaster came to Hu Dezhong, Chen Yang 'invited' him out to talk every now and then, each time talking him into a swollen face, finally the kid had no choice but to apologize and treat him to dinner, only then was the matter settled.

  After that, the two of them didn't have any contact at all, and it was like they were from different worlds, never interacting with each other until the day they died.

  What does Hu Dezheng mean by jumping out now?

  "It's all right." Li Yi said calmly.

  "Haha, I heard that Li Da Wanjia made a lot of money in the game. Come on, tell us old classmates, how much did you make?"

  Hu Dezheng's legs were raised in a heroic posture, and he took out a box of soft Chinese cigarettes and handed one to Li Yi.

  "Have you smoked this before? Want to try one?"

  "Excuse me for disturbing you, please go outside to smoke." The servant of the Chu family ran over and gestured for Hu Dezhi to go outside to smoke.

  "I won't smoke for now."

  Hu Dezheng coughed awkwardly several times, and several classmates behind him burst out laughing.

  At a glance at Hu De Zhi's manner, Li Yi understood that this guy was specially running over to show off in front of himself.

  Everyone has graduated and is no longer a student. The rules of school don't apply in society anymore.

  "I've been doing some business with my old man recently, and in just half a month I've earned over 9,000 yuan. Oh dear, I'm so tired, I don't even want to do it anymore."

  Hudz's voice was very loud, and as soon as he shouted, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

  Everyone's eyes turned over, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

  Hu Dezhong was even more pleased.

  "It's just a small business, so I hope everyone will support it, and thank you for your attention."

  Hu Dezheng said as he handed out business cards to everyone, Li Yi also received one, which read: Dezheng Clothing Exclusive Store, General Manager: Hu Dezheng.

  "Li Da, tell us, how much money have you made from playing games? Haha."

  Looking around, many people are showing a mocking expression towards themselves, apparently they all want to see their own joke.

  Li Yiwu sighed slightly, wondering how she hadn't noticed their selfishness when they were in school.

  "Not much, just earned tens of millions in half a month."

  Li Yi took out a crystal card (a bank card with a display number) and swiped it in front of Hu Dezhi.

  The number 156322 is clearly displayed above.

  "Huh? Is this for real?" Hu De Zhi's smile was somewhat forced.

  "Has Li Yi arrived?"

  Just then, Chu Nan walked in and saw Li Yi, handing him a crystal card.

  "This is a reward of 100,000 yuan from my brother for your first kill. This is a universal card that can be used anywhere. You two chat first, I'll go entertain the guests and come back later."

  The living room is silent as a cicada in autumn.

  Li Y's classmates, except for Chu Nan whose family is relatively wealthy, are mostly from ordinary families. For them, being able to find a job with a monthly income of over 10,000 yuan is already very impressive.

  Hu Dezhi's face turned extremely ugly. He had originally wanted to mock Li Yi, but he didn't expect that his own little capital wasn't even enough for the other person's spare change...

  "No matter what we do, it's all for a better life. Comparing with each other is nothing, but belittling others and elevating oneself, what can you gain from that? I'm just an ordinary gamer, not stealing or robbing, enjoying the process. You looking down on me doesn't matter, because I don't need your approval. I just do my best for myself."

  Li Yi took out a quaintly-shaped crescent moon dagger and placed it on the table along with the 100,000 crystal card.

  "This is a gift I gave to Chu Nan, sorry everyone, I have something else to attend to, I'll go play games now."

  Li Yixiao left with a swagger.

  A knowledgeable classmate picked up the dagger and examined it carefully, exclaiming: "This is a genuine Late Qing Dynasty Mongolian dagger, with an official price of 280,000 yuan."
