Chapter 18: Putting on airs doesn't work and instead gets X-ed

  Back on the road to Flame Canyon, because of ChaCha's addition, the shrinking potion had to be increased by one more share. Fortunately, the demand for this potion was not very large, so several people took a detour back to Holy Light City, Lin Yi and ChaCha replenished some potions, while Ding Qiang ran to the auction house to buy some materials.

  In a short time, the primary life potions and magic potions he threw into the auction house had been sold out by more than half, and at this moment, the gold coins on him had broken through the 300 mark, doubling from before.

  In his previous life, he had possessed three hundred gold coins, which was a matter of when he was at level thirty.

  But in this life, he had only risen to level 15 and yet had already reached such a state, which made him secretly pleased while also affirming the path he had chosen.

  He swept away the newly placed Hydrangea and Magic Bamboo, doubling their price, turned them all into potions and put them back on sale. Then he hired an NPC to set up a purchasing stall in the most crowded area, made a large sign that read "Buying Hydrangea and Magic Bamboo" and after that, he took ChaCha and LinYi towards Flame Gorge.

  ……

  Ding Qiang's successive sweeps and the large number of medicinal herbs that appeared soon fell into the eyes of those with ulterior motives.

  "Third sister, player-made potions have appeared in the auction house." Xiao Ai exclaimed loudly as she crouched in front of the auction house screen. As their guild's transfer student and life assistant, Xiao Ai was perfect for this task, since she didn't care much about levels and was always dazed and confused.

  "What? Someone has already rushed to the novice alchemist so quickly?" Green Tea Ice Cream, also known as San Jie in Xiao Ai's words, was stunned: "Do you know whose name it is?"

  "He's hiding his name." Xia Ai muttered.

  Soon, Green Tea Ice Cream reported this matter to Nangong Xiaoyue.

  In this workshop, Nangong Xiaoyue and Nangong Xiaoxiao are the eldest and second sisters, only in charge of upgrading. Matcha ice cream is responsible for the overall logistics support of the entire workshop. Several people have a clear division of labor, apparently preparing to make a big move in the game of God's Trace.

  "How much is collected, especially the magic potions." Nangong Xiaoyue quickly ordered, the amount of magic medicine consumed by the magicians during their training was too much, and the potions sold by the system were not only expensive but also had a long cooldown time, she had had enough.

  "Alright, got it." With a command from Matcha Ice Cream, Xiao Ai immediately sprang into action.

  Just then, Xia Ai gloomily discovered that the several bottles of magic potion she had seen just a moment before had vanished into thin air when she wanted to buy them, and were all swept away by someone.

  "All three sisters have been sold."

  "What?" Green tea ice cream was suddenly surprised: "Just wait there and pay attention to refresh at any time."

  "Oh."

  ……

  Just as Xiaoyi noticed the potion, other guilds also had players who knew about it. Some players would make magic potions, and this thing quickly spread throughout the game's major guilds.

  It was only the second day after the game's opening, and someone had already leveled up their alchemy to such a high level, stunning everyone once again.

  Now all major guilds have stopped at the second BOSS of Flame Canyon, although the first kill of the final BOSS of Flame Canyon is gone, this dungeon still needs to be taken down, and not only needs to be taken down, but also needs to become a dungeon that can be crushed at will.

  This is not because of anything else, but because next to the Valley of Eternal Flame, there will be a team instance - The Firelands, which is the first team instance for players and also a 25-man large-scale instance.

  But if the player's equipment is not up to par, then clearing this instance is simply a pipe dream.

  If small-scale copies are a manifestation of the strength of individual teams, then large-scale copies are undoubtedly the best proof of the strength of the entire guild. Being able to take down the first kill of the Flame Crest Canyon copy is something that every guild dreams of achieving.

  It can be said that Ding Qiang took down the first kill of Wild Boar King, took down the first kill of Flame Gorge, these big guilds didn't care, but if Ding Qiang took down the first kill of Flame Territory, these guilds would definitely go crazy.

  At this time, whoever can flatten the Flame Gorge Valley earlier will have enough time to accumulate more equipment. This CD-short life potion can greatly improve the tolerance rate of the copy, so after realizing the preciousness of this potion, various guilds took action one after another. For a while, the auction house was crowded with people, and everyone was waiting for the mysterious alchemist to appear again.

  In the minds of many, this alchemist must be a professional player who makes a living from his secondary job. Seeing his goods sell out so quickly, he will surely put up a second batch soon. After all, as time passes, it is believed that others will soon join him in sharing this market.

  But what shocked everyone was...

  Ten minutes passed and the magic potion did not appear.

  Twenty minutes have passed and the magic potion still hasn't appeared.

  Thirty minutes have passed...

  "What's with this alchemist? Where did he go?" The players in the auction house muttered to themselves.

  ……

  Achoo!

  In the midst of the raging flames gorge, Ding Qiang let out a big sneeze.

  Who's thinking of me again?

  He muttered to himself in his heart.

  Because of the equipment change, they have already cleared the instance once from just now to half an hour ago and are about to leave the copy to reset and come again.

  Just then, Cha Cha suddenly gave Ding Qiang a strange look...

  "Maple, those few people are not even a match for that Godly Reach show. Liu Tao's **** was guarded again." Lin Yi whispered: "Liu Tao is asking Tea to find you in the chat room to help him."

  Although he didn't know that the invincible Xiao Qiang was actually Ding Qiang, Liu Tao had his own small mind. He knew that if he spoke up, based on the other party's attitude towards him earlier, they would likely ignore him completely. So, he let Cha Cha speak up. With a beauty speaking up, how could a master like you possibly refuse?

  After walking a few steps, Cha Cha wanted to say something but hesitated, and finally stammered: "That... that... Brother Xiaojun who won't die..."

  "What's wrong?" Ding Qiang thought in his heart: You silly girl, how stupid are you? Why get involved in this matter?

  Facing this little girl, facing the little girl who will become his own woman in the future, even if he has a huge temper, Ding Qiang can't vent it out.

  "It's nothing, the weather is really great today." Chacha said, beating around the bush.

  "...Just as Ding Qiang let out a sigh of relief, Lin Yi suddenly spoke up beside him: "Big brother, Cha Cha wants me to ask for your help..."

  "Ah!" Ding Qiang raised his head, and Cha Cha's heart skipped a beat as she hastily shifted her gaze to another place.

  "Am I that scary?" Ding Qiang asked in a daze.

  "The aura of a master..." Lin Yima muttered.

  "Get out..."

  "What's going on here? Didn't Liu Tao and the others kill the BOSS? Why are they conflicting with that God Trace person now? Do you know?" Ding Qiang asked.

  "Damn, how would I know?" Lin Yi said speechlessly: "I've been with you all along."

  "Ask Tea Tea."

  "Come on, you two aren't strangers, just ask directly." Lin Yi muttered discontentedly.

  "What's with all this nonsense? Don't want to play the instance anymore, huh?" Ding Qiang threatened.

  "Damn it, you're my brother..." Lin Yi Yu was speechless.

  A moment later: "Tea doesn't know either, she was also pulled away as soon as she went online."

  "Ask someone who knows."

  "You..."

  "Copy..."

  "Depend on..."

  After a while, things were finally understood, but as soon as the situation was clarified, not only Ding Qiang, but also Lin Ye became angry.

  Things were simple, Liu Tao and his team kept trying to beat the BOSS, but they always got wiped out. One time when they were running back with their corpses, a few people from Shen Ji Da Ren Xiu happened to pass by, saw the BOSS, and since Liu Tao's team was all dead, those few people started killing the BOSS.

  When they were halfway through killing them, Liu Tao and several others came back to life.

  It doesn't matter actually, if you can't even fight yourself, are you going to stop others from fighting?

  It all went wrong because of one sentence from Liu Tao's sworn brother...

  "I heard that outdoor BOSS can drop blue equipment."

  As soon as Liu Tao heard that the BOSS could drop blue equipment, he immediately became excited. Seeing the BOSS's life getting lower and lower, finally, when the BOSS had only 10% of its life left, several people rushed up together, preparing to take down the Divine Trace first, and then snatch the BOSS.

  The heart is higher than the sky, but life is thinner than paper.

  The two sides were fundamentally not on the same level, and Shén Jì Dá Rén Xiù had long noticed these few sneaky guys. As they charged forward, two people rushed out of the Dá Rén Xiù team, and with a few swift knife strikes, instantly knocked down those guys.

  Then... Liu Tao yelled and shouted for people, even Chacha, who had just left the Newbie Village, was also dragged over by him.

  It turned out that the God Gifted People's Show had a lot of people, and after a few intense battles between the two sides, all the guys from Class 3 and 4 fell to the ground. After that, it was what Ding Qiang and Lin Yi knew...

  "Damn it!" Lin Yi cursed loudly after learning the whole story. The few people who were originally arguing with confidence and righteousness suddenly found themselves in an unexpected situation.

  Leaving the copy, and not returning immediately, he found a place with a mailbox nearby. Ding Qiang mailed back the shield that Shen Jie had just thrown away, saying that this shield was too hot to hold in his hands.

  After doing all this, he returned to his deputy position again.

  "Big brother, I'm calling you big brother now, Tea is begging me to let you help again." Lin Yi said with a sobbing tone halfway.

  He was speechless, Ding Qiang obviously knew Li Yan, but didn't know why he had to speak through him, and Cha Cha too, if you want to ask for help, can't you just open your mouth yourself, must go through him...

  After hesitating for a while, Lin Yi finally couldn't hold back: "Damn it, Qiangzi, you have to know your limits when pretending to be cool, how long are you going to keep up this act?"

  "Qiangzi?" Chacha knew that the extraordinary great general was Lin Yi, and when she heard him call the warrior beside him "Fengzi", she immediately reacted: "You are Ding Qiang?"

  "It was me." Ding Qiang said with a nod, giving Lin Yi a fierce stare for pretending to be unaware and whistling innocently beside him.

  "Then hurry up and help Liu Tao, he can't get up again, he's died twice already, we're all classmates..." Chacha continued to say foolishly.

  "Help? Didn't I help him?" Seeing ChaCha being so concerned about LiuTao's situation, DingQiang, who was already annoyed in his heart, said in a bad tone: "Just now, wasn't it me who went over there? You were all still lying down, only level 10, and you're learning from others to PK. Elder sister, do you know how much you weigh? And helping LiuTao, do you know the whole story? Do you know that just now LiuTao was shouting for you guys to help him, but he himself didn't revive once from start to finish until he saw me go over there and felt it wasn't dangerous, then he revived. Now why did he shout for so long without anyone helping him, have you thought about why no one helped?"

  "Wants to rob others, but can't win a fight, gets beaten and left for dead, shouts for help but doesn't revive, gets rescued but doesn't leave quickly, doesn't know their own weight and still wants to guard someone else's corpse. What does this mean? It refers to people like that."

  "Sorry," Ding Qiang said: "I am not his babysitter, nor do I have any interest in dealing with this matter."

  "You... you're so heartless." After being scolded by Ding Qiang, Cha Cha stomped her foot: "You're really annoying, I'm not going to talk to you anymore."

  After she finished speaking, with a swish, she suddenly went underground.

  Lin Yi opened his mouth and after a while said: "Was I talking too much just now?"

  "It's okay, it's not your fault. This girl is just stupid and was used by others without even realizing it. Ugh, damn it." Ding Qiang also felt very depressed. The situation was so obvious, everyone else could see it, but why couldn't this girl? In his past life, he hadn't thought she was this stupid either. In his past life, Li Yan wasn't just not stupid, she had a great talent for gaming too. Although they only played together for a short time, until he reincarnated, there were still people on the forum who remembered that beautiful female summoner who appeared like a shooting star.

  Ding Qiang was in a bad mood, and Lin Yi didn't dare to say more. The two people silently reset the copy and then entered it.
