Chapter 90: Guide Creation
Zhao Kai's intense stare and his belief that Xu Feng knew the reason was overbearing, to say the least.
"Come on, Feng. You already revealed a lot, so what's the harm in telling me the reason?" Zhao Kai pouted, attempting to flash a genuine smile again.
"..."
With a soft sigh, Xu Feng knew he had to explain when the latter was playing rogue.
It was obvious he wouldn't stop asking until he received an answer.
Plus, to save himself from the disgusting sight, he decided to explain, hoping that he wouldn't be scared out of his wits.
"Any monsters that are 20 levels above us would have danger signs to warn players off. But it's just an indication, and not really accurate since the system doesn't take a player's skills and other things into account." Xu Feng explained while carefully examining the expression of Zhao Kai.
Luckily, it seemed like Zhao Kai was still the same, showing a completely nonchalant behavior.
"Oh, so it's just stronger monsters. Phew, I thought it was some big conspiracy or secret with the way you were acting." Zhao Kai shrugged, feeling relieved.
"Since that's the case, then it means we might return here sooner or later to tackle the danger zones." He added, grinning wickedly.
'Sure enough, he's a tank despite trying to not act like one.' Xu Feng concluded inwardly. Only those who choose tanks class are extremely eager to fight dangerous monsters above their capability to test their combat skills.
However, Xu Feng was still surprised to see the changes in Zhao Kai's behavior compared to the ones he knew in the past.
He seemed more carefree and relaxed, clearly enjoying the environment of the Divine World. Nevertheless, it wasn't a bad thing to be free of the pressure.
At the very least, Xu Feng didn't plan on divulging much of his schemes and things he was plotting to Zhao Kai.
There was no need to make him feel pressured. Instead, he could just enjoy the Divine World without knowing much.
"Hey, Kai, if I ask you to do something for me in the Divine World, will you help me?" Xu Feng turned to him and asked solemnly.
Surprised by the sudden serious talk, Zhao Kai understood it was not a casual question, given he was even calling him by his first name.
Despite that, it didn't take a second before Zhao Kai flashed a determined expression as he clenched his fist. "Heh, we're brothers, so what's the point of asking? Just tell me what to do!"
"Sure, then kill all those 200 monster parts!" Xu Feng laughed heartily and patted his shoulder.
Meanwhile, Zhao Kai nearly choked on his own saliva, feeling like he had been deceived and trolled by Xu Feng.
"How can you expect me to kill them all by myself?" He shouted in agony, chasing after Xu Feng, who had already activated the teleportation.
With a swoosh, the two vanished from the village and appeared at the entrance of the Verdant Valley.
"Phew, thank the lord that they didn't teleport us in the middle of a minefield." Zhao Kai wiped off the non-existent sweat from his forehead as he breathed a sigh of relief.
The horror of being sent into the center of a sea of monsters while being unprepared was unimaginable.
"The game isn't that harsh," Xu Feng twitched his brows, wondering just what kind of nonsense he was thinking. If the game really made such a design, then who would dare to take a teleporter?
"Well, what are we going to do? Start hunting for monsters?" Zhao Kai questioned, seemingly itching to test his new equipment.
However, Xu Feng shook his head and said, "No, you should return to Oakwood Town and stock up on food. We're going to need to utilize your Gluttony Skill to complete this mission."
"Oho, are you paying for the food?" Zhao Kai rubbed his hands together and smiled maliciously, creating a somewhat creepy appearance.
"You are even more greedy than me." Xu Feng rolled his eyes but still threw a sack of pouches filled with money toward him.
As Zhao Kai grabbed the pouch, he subtly recognized it. "Wait, isn't this the pouch we snatched from those ambushers?"
"Correction, they were given to us by them for their wrongdoings. We are law-abiding citizens after all."
"Yes, it was a gift. My mistake. How can we be robbers?"
"Mhmm, so what are you waiting here for? A cookie?" Xu Feng glared fiercely.
"Hahaha, I'll be right back~" Zhao Kai laughed merrily as he quickly dashed off.
While he was at a far distance, Xu Feng made sure to tell him to message back once he returned.
With a simple wave in response from Zhao Kai, he slowly disappeared from the vicinity, and Xu Feng promptly took a seat on a nearby rock.
"Alright, time to write a guide." Xu Feng stretched his arms as he began writing two different sets of guides.
One guide was basic with not much detail but just enough for them to get through. The other guide was a more extensive one, along with the boss' pattern and strategy to tackle.
These two guides were naturally the ones Xu Feng planned on selling for a fortune, given the hot commodity the Scorched Caverns were currently being discussed.
Time slowly passed by, and Xu Feng finished the creation of the basic guide, namely: Introduction of the Scorched Caverns dungeon guide.
'Now how much should I charge?' Xu Feng rubbed his chin and pondered.
It can't be sold for too cheap, lest others might suspect it to be a garbage guide, but it also cannot be too expensive either.
After all, this basic guide was meant to be the real hot seller to average players compared to the other extensive guide that he had yet to create.
Fixing his glasses, Xu Feng decided to wait a while on the price tag and resumed working on the extensive guide.
"It's time to get even more rich and influential." He exclaimed, feeling more motivated than ever.
