Chapter Fourteen: The Fallen Warrior Long Wu

  This move was beyond everyone's expectations.

  I was even more shocked, "Sister Qiūyǔ, you can also equip this cloak! And you need to ensure your agility points for accuracy too!"

  "You need to hit more, you little devil with pure power! As for you, don't compete with me anymore. You followed me with one move of Qiankun, and we're even now."

  "How much does that skill book cost?!"

  "Stop talking nonsense, just take it if you want it."

  After she finished speaking, she directly activated gift-giving mode, and I was left with no choice.

  "Practice hard and try to level up quickly! I'm a bit sleepy, so I'll log off first. IceIce, and those two little ghosts, I'll go ahead and leave."

  The three of us old men were quite embarrassed, and were actually teased by a beautiful young lady with the two words "little devil".

  We also said goodbye to her, and she immediately took out a return scroll, tore it apart and returned to the city.

  Cappuccino patted me on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Fei, you have such a great sister, that's really fortunate."

  I felt a bit awkward, "Actually, we just met today too."

  "It's just fate, I guess, like how we can see each other today." Yīng Yuè Wú Yōu said.

  "Right, I was so busy fighting monsters just now, I forgot to ask where everyone is from."

  "Hello, I am from Tianjin..."

  My eyes widened in surprise, "Are you from Tianjin too?"

  "Oh, fellow countryman!"

  Bing Yu couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, "Nuo Gege, you're really silly, you can't even tell the accent of your own hometown!"

  "It's not that I'm stupid, it's just that this kid's Mandarin is too standard, I thought he was from Beijing."

  "Hey, Nuo Ge, which district are you from?"

  Hexi District, Xiaohaidi.

  "Oh? What a coincidence! I'm also from Hexi District, but I live on the south building side."

  "It's okay, it's not too far. Let's just focus on leveling up this week and forget about it. Next week, let's find some time to meet up, just the two of us, and have a drink together."

  "It's settled then."

  Bing Yu pretended to be angry, "Nuo Gege, you're here again, stinky drunkard!"

  Cappuccino smiled helplessly, "I'm a professional player, I've been playing games for seven years. From the time of 'Faith' to now. Ice is my wife in the game, we've been playing together for four years. She was a student at a nursing school before, after graduation she followed me and became a professional player. We met three years ago while playing a game."

  "Non-ge (brother), I've taken a look at your skills and character, would you be interested in joining our team?"

  I was taken aback for a moment, "Are you guys also a group of friends here to have fun?"

  "Uh, our team is currently ranked 35th in the Chinese server's guild rankings. We don't have many people, just over a thousand or so, and basically everyone was friends from that game three years ago. Now the whole team has moved to 'Holy War', we're not seeking to dominate the entire server, as long as everyone is happy playing together, can earn some money, and has enough to eat and drink, that's all that matters. Oh yeah, our guild name is 'Reincarnation'."

  Bingyu Wuyou also took the opportunity to tempt me, "Fei Ge, do you want to come to our team? There are many beautiful MM in our team!"

  I smiled faintly, "How about this, I'm not in a position to respond right now. Can you give me a week's time?"

  Cappuccino nodded, "This is no problem. Even if you can't come to the cycle after a week, we can still be brothers on the road, right, Xiao Fei?"

  Have to say, Cappuccino is quite eloquent.

  We said goodbye to each other. The three of them walked along the main road, heading to another village to meet up with their team. As for me, I continued to grind monsters because I was still missing one task item.

  The last task prop was also very face-saving, and after brushing four Blazing Mountain Goats, I got it. Seeing that there was no one around, I immediately took out the Unsealing Stone, took out the Flame Cloak that Du Lianqiu had transferred to me, and slapped the Unsealing Stone on it!

  The seal stone emitted a dazzling light, and I was overjoyed. It seems that the hidden properties of this cloak are not bad!

  But what made me depressed was that the surface of the seal stone cracked quickly and then shattered with a "crack"!

  "Ding Dong!" System Prompt: "Your Bronze Equipment [Blazing Cloak] unsealing failed, please re-unseal it!"

  "GRD system, failed to unseal? Well, that's a failure then! Do you dare return the unsealing stone to me? That was bought with money!"

  Still feeling depressed, I had to take out another unsealing stone and slap it on there. This time, I wasn't disappointed. After a burst of colorful light, the equipment's seal attribute was finally lifted.

  Inferno Cloak

  Rank: Bronze

  Equipment Type: Physical Cloak

  Level: 15

  Basic Attributes:

  Physical Defense +40

  Magic Defense +60

  Evasion +60

  Additional points:

  Strength + 10

  Agility +15

  Unseal Properties:

  Movement speed +0.2 m/s

  ……

  Although this attribute seems inconspicuous, it is actually not. To know that when flying a kite, escaping, chasing and even walking, the movement acceleration property increases by a little bit, often has a positive promotional effect on the outcome, so there is no doubt that this unsealing is very worthwhile, despite the cost of four gold coins. However, I have some resentment, I still need two-thirds level experience to wear it.

  Hehe, no big deal, I'll just stay up till noon today and then go back home for a nap!

  Back in town, I took the task props directly to find Old Man Ilgno. The old man was delighted to see these sheepskins and said to me, "Young man, thank you so much! This winter my old legs will definitely not be cold! You wait for five minutes, I'll go find tailor Port, and when I come back, I'll give you a gift!"

  After finishing speaking, he went directly to the armor shop.

  A gift? I couldn't help but feel excited, could it be that they're giving me a powerful weapon? Best would be if they gave me a bow, and not too high of a quality either, bronze level is fine. That way, when I go to kill some BOSS, it'll be much easier.

  I didn't forget YY's kung fu, I went to the grocery store to replenish my supplies, including red medicine water, blue medicine water and iron arrow.

  After buying these things, I returned to the place where I met Ilgno old man. The old man was already standing there with a smile, and surprisingly, he still held a red defensive gear that was entwined with flames.

  My heart is racing, in "Holy War", the probability of getting equipment from tasks is very low, basically around 10%. My luck is not bad, so far I have received three tasks and two of them actually gave me equipment, just nice.

  "Young man, this leather pants is made from the most resilient skin of Flamehorn Goat, consider it a gift from this old bones to you. I hope you wear it and join our anti-demon army, drive those damned demons out of Seyno, out of Illinoida continent!"

  "Ding Dong!" System Prompt: "You have completed the task [Warm Woolen Leg Warmers], the system rewards you with 40,000 experience points, 120 reputation points, and obtains the task reward equipment [Sheepskin Leg Guards]!"

  I casually took the shin guard from Grandpa Illinois' hand, and a thick sense of weight also pressed down on my hands. I looked carefully, and the whole person was almost crazy with joy.

  Shin guard

  Rank: Bronze

  Equipment Type: Leather Armor

  Rank: Unlimited

  Basic Attributes:

  Physical Defense +65

  Magic Defense +65

  Additional points:

  Strength + 7

  Agility +9

  Constitution +7

  Additional Attributes:

  Blood +200

  ……

  "This equipment is really great, no need to use levels or unlock, the attributes are so high, it's completely tailored for someone like me who just lost my job!"

  I put on this equipment without hesitation and took a very handsome look at my own attributes.

  Not ordinary

  Race: Human

  Occupation: Apprentice Thief

  Level: 14

  Blood Volume: 1670

  Physical Attack: 1042~1127

  Physical Defense: 184

  Magic Defense: 159

  Critical Hit Rate: 1%

  Reputation value: 400

  Lucky value: 0

  ……

  After seeing this attribute, I immediately took a look at my own experience bar, which is now 14th level 75%, just 25% away from wearing the Flame Cloak, and the attributes will definitely go crazy again!

  Without saying another word, I quickly thanked the lovely old man and then wandered around the village. With my level increased, I'm sure to get noticed by NPCs who previously ignored me, and then quests will be easily available.

  But contrary to my wishes, this time I surprisingly didn't find a single NPC with a quest!

  These days, why is it so hard to take on a task?!

  However, just as I was dejectedly heading towards the village center to send a telegram, I found that under the crooked neck of the big locust tree in front of me, there was actually a shabbily dressed vagrant lying there!

  This vagabond wore a suit of tattered armor, with several holes in his boots, and two big toes sticking out. He looked quite comical. However, this man's appearance was not bad at all. Although he had a messy beard, he had a full and round face, with dense sword-like eyebrows under a pair of bright and spirited eyes!

  On his forehead was written a line of small words - [The Fallen Warrior Dragon Wu]!

  Long Wu, this name sounds very oriental! It's worth noting that the style of "Holy War" belongs to a Western fantasy-based online game, and most of the NPCs have Western names. However, "Holy War" also incorporates some Eastern elements, and the only NPC I'm familiar with is the natural goddess Luo Yu, who was once Tian Ge's spirit and later gained divine status, evolving into an ultimate deity, playing a crucial role in the main god system of "Holy War".

  So, in my opinion, any NPC with an oriental flavor in this game can absolutely bring good luck to the player!

  So I immediately walked up to this down-and-out warrior named Long Wu, and the closer I got, the thicker the smell of alcohol and body odor became. I immediately turned my perception to zero and acted like nothing was wrong as I walked past him.

  Unexpectedly, before I could speak, this big brother looked me up and down and said, "Young man, I'll ask you, what is the most taboo thing for people who drink?"

  This absurd question has got me all tangled up, I scratched my head, "Being disturbed by others?"

  "Not true!"

  "No money to buy wine?"

  "Not right either!"

  "No snacks!"

  "Idiot! Even more unreliable!" He picked up the broken wine jug on the ground and poured the wine into a cracked bowl.

  I suddenly realized, "Is it because there is no suitable wine container!"

  "Hey! You little scamp is quite perceptive, isn't he? I'm asking you, are you brave enough to help me with something?"

  I'm secretly delighted, it's a done deal!
