BXBX NOVEL Chapter 242 - Level 22
Most importantly, the Midsummer gained a mass of equipment rather than lose any.
Not only the items dropped by the deaths of the Midsummer were regained but also the items dropped by the Wild Wolf Gang were beyond count.
It was because too many players of the Wild Wolf Gang were killed, whose bags were filled with a lot of equipment gained in the first floor of the underground palace.
“Midsummer Guild! Just wait and see! This is not over! We won’t let you get away with this!”
The players of the Wild Wolf Gang were grumpy. Even though they were killed and lying on the ground, they still kept clamoring. They didn’t talk tough and go back to the city for regen until a group of players of the elite squad of the Midsummer Guild trampled on their corpses.
“Okay. Leave the site then.”
Xiao Feng happened to forge the last entry-level equipment into an iron piece. Upon hearing that, he stood up and said. At the same time, he started to strike the buff skills at himself instead of the lost Orc General.
Almost maxed out by Xiao Feng, the lost Orc General was constantly in the prime status with the help of various buff skills or health points. If any players came to hit the Orc General, they would find that the boss had become many times stronger and be aced without knowing the reason.
The effect was rather prominent under the health point adding and skill striking of Xiao Feng over the past half an hour.
Not only the proficiency of his several skills was greatly enhanced but also the petrified gem at the top of the damaged Sage Staff gave off a gleam of light faintly.
Besides, Xiao Feng finally knew that what effect savvy could bring to the skill proficiency positively. That was, one point of savvy could increase the speed of skill experience point acquisition by 0.1.
For instance, every time you used the skill, you would increase your skill proficiency by one point. However, when you had 5 points of savvy, the increased skill proficiency would be 1.5 points per time, which meant that after using two skills, the skill proficiency would be increased by three points.
Human had the gift of increased savvy, which was embodied on that. It was a good gift indeed.
One minute later, when the lost Orc General played by Xiao Feng for half an hour lost the buff effect, Xiao Feng killed it quickly.
Because Xiao Feng’s buff effect was too crazy, which worked the same on the creeps, and it was a boss, the sharply enhanced property made him feel the remarkability of his buff effect for the first time. As a result, he didn’t kill it until the duration time of his buff effect ended.
“Everybody out! Back to the city.”
In the grand underground grave, Liu Qiangwei gave an order to the elite squad.
All the elite squad members, including Midsummer Lily, were surprised. They thought that the president of the guild occupied the map in a big way to pass the instance zones here. However, they were ordered to retreat after getting rid of the other players.
Yet, Liu Qiangwei held absolute prestige in the Midsummer Guild, so after she gave the order, the other members still retreated despite confusion.
Very soon, apart from the wandering Undead Soul Creeps, there was no one on the first floor of the underground palace.
Nevertheless, Xiao Feng showed himself soon after the players of the Midsummer Guild left. Having found no traces of other players, he started to kill creeps without any delay.
It took him less than 10 minutes to clear off all the creeps on the first floor of the underground palace. Then he entered the second floor and continued to creep constantly.
Xiao Feng planned to leave the space marker on the third floor of the underground palace. With the first floor and second floor as the natural barrier, even if other players found the grand underground grave, they would not break through down here.
Xiao Feng was not going to kill the creeps on the first floor of the underground palace and intended to leave them as the hindrance to block other players. In future if he came to the grand underground grave, he would creep on the third floor. If the creeps were not enough, it would be convenient for him to retreat from the third floor to the second floor. In this way, he didn’t need to kill all the creeps on the previous floor if he wanted to enter the next floor. Instead, he could directly retreat.
The creeps on the second floor of the underground palace were rather tough to handle, which were at least level-30 elite creeps. And bosses were even everywhere, which were not weaker than those in the Jungle of Trapped Beast and scattered in a highly dense manner. Even though Xiao Feng was endowed with the remarkable property of Divine Power, it was not easy for him to kill them. His health bar kept fluctuating.
However, Xiao Feng was familiar with the map. It would be fine if he was careful enough. It was not dangerous for him anyway.
“Hey! Congratulations! You’ve reached level 22, and gotten 1 free attribute point to allot.”
It took Xiao Feng more than one hour to kill all the creeps on the second floor of the underground palace, but he did harvest a lot, including a full bag of equipment, materials and golden coins. Apart from that, the massively gained experience points made Xiao Feng reach level 22.
This level-up speed was unsurpassable, thus rendering Xiao Feng absolutely Top 1 on the Leaderboard.
After reaching the third floor and leaving the space marker, Xiao Feng logged off. As it was time for dinner, he didn’t hurry to creep on the third floor of the underground palace.
“Brother Xiao, I am stuck in the quest of killing boss. When you log on later, help me with that.”
Xiao Feng just walked out of the room when he happened to meet Qian Duoduo who also logged off. She immediately said to Xiao Feng.
“Okay. Did you inform Liu Qiangwei to learn the forging skill?” Xiao Feng nodded his head and asked.
“I’ve told her to but her savvy was too low to trigger the quest. But…” Qian Duoduo shook her head and said with an embarrassed face.
“But what?” Xiao Feng said confusedly while walking downstairs, puzzling whether he should get some equipment for Liu Qiangwei to enhance her savvy.
“But I find that Liu Qiangwei is too merciless. She aimed at the dwarf NPC by persuading him into going to the encampment of the Midsummer Guild by guaranteeing him a lot of benefits, including an exclusive workshop and numerous equipment forging. I feel that the dwarf NPC was intrigued. If she gained enough favor from the NPC, she may really be able to get him.” Following Xiao Feng, Qian Duoduo said in an admiring tone.
Xiao Feng hedged and the corner of his eyes twitched. Liu Qiangwei wanted to make Master Di join her guild? How ambitious!
“If she makes it, after the guild encampment is upgraded to a certain scale and opened to all the players, she will attract numerous players by the exclusive forging skill. Only the transmission fee can earn her a great fortune!” Qian Duoduo continued saying in an extremely admiring tone.
Xiao Feng was convinced and speechless. He didn’t expect that Liu Qiangwei was so crafty.
“Master… Miss Duoduo, your dinners are served.”
Ning Keke, wearing the black and white maiden dress, was presenting the plates on the table. Upon seeing Xiao Feng and Qian Duoduo, she hastened to welcome them. With the white apron neckline, her white and big bosoms were rather outstanding. She glanced at Xiao Feng in secret and then hurried to lower her head, still acting like a timid rabbit.
“Where is Ling?” Xiao Feng sat down nearby and asked randomly.
Qian Duoduo took a look at the amazingly grown breasts of Ning Keke unhappily and then sat down next to Xiao Feng in a depressed look.
“Highness Ling is still playing games… No, she is doing homework…” Ning Keke is obviously not good at lying. Her face blushed at once and her head was even lowered. She wished she could bury her face into her breasts.
“Tell her to come for dinner.” Xiao Feng shook his head with a headache.
“Yes, Master.”
Ning Keke was relieved with a sigh and left the dining room to go upstairs. Yet, she was in a hurry and almost fell down. Luckily, she was in time to hold the stairs but she was terrified with a pale face and kept patting her chest, which made her stunning breasts shaking constantly.
“Brother Xiao, you are having a nosebleed.” Qian Duoduo said in a cold voice.
“Hum. Hum.”
Xiao Feng hastened to withdraw his eyesight and touched his nose. Nothing was found. Then in a hurry, he just lowered his head to eat his meal.
Liu Qiangwei also arrived. Her luxury car stopped outside the villa. Then she came to the dining room and started to have supper. It was then that Xiao Feng realized that Ning Keke made a meal for five persons. He didn’t know when Liu Qiangwei informed Ning Keke.
“We encountered some trouble when clearing the site today.”
Liu Qiangwei said to Xiao Feng after having a small spoonful of porridge elegantly and beautifully
“What trouble? I thought you had cleared the site.” Xiao Feng said confusedly while biting the fried egg.
“It was a small guild that discovered the grand underground grave. I killed them all and sent them back to city.” Liu Qiangwei flipped her hair and said in a calm voice, as if taking down a small guild was an insignificant matter for her.
“Small guild? Any subsequent trouble?” Xiao Feng asked. To his surprise, it was a small guild rather than some players of unspecified characters that discovered the grand underground grave.
“The small guild is close to the Glory Guild. Because of that, the president of the Glory Guild contacted me and exerted pressure on me on behalf of the Glory Guild, demanding that I should apologize.” Liu Qiangwei said in a calm voice and told Xiao Feng what had happened this afternoon.
Of course, given her character, it was impossible for her to make an apology.
“Glory Guild? Brother Nine of Glory? Noted.”
Xiao Feng nodded his head. He knew what Liu Qiangwei meant and didn’t say much. Likewise, Liu Qiangwei didn’t ask much and continued to have the porridge spoonful by spoonful in a beautiful manner.
“Hum!”
Ling also went downstairs soon. She seemed to be in a good mood but upon seeing Liu Qiangwei, she immediately pulled a long face and flipper her golden twin-tail long hair. In a sulk, she started to have her dinner angrily.
Liu Qiangwei’s charisma was fatal attraction towards any men as well as the strongest threat to any women.
Xiao Feng was the first one to finish the dinner. After stretching himself, he returned to his room and logged on. He intended to continue his quests on the third floor of the underground palace but unexpectedly, Si Yejing also logged on and sent a message to Xiao Feng.
Xiao Feng had to give up the third floor of the underground palace and activated the space ring to return to the second floor of the Jungle of Trapped Beast to go on with exploration with Si Yejing who was waiting for him.
