Virtual World: Conquering the World

Chapter 148: Spring and Autumn Chaotic Dance

After turning around, I found that in the pile of stones, the giant corpse of the Dark Ghost General was disappearing.  There was a small mountain of gold coins left behind, along with some equipment.  It would be great if there was a piece of level 85 Dark Gold Equipment dropped!

So, I put all the gold coins in my inventory, a total of 2148 pieces.  Just the gold coins alone were enough to make us rich!  Moreover, the Dark Ghost General's HP had leveled both me and Ling Xue.  I was now level 55 and Ling Xue was level 52.  When I opened the level rankings, I found that there were some changes.

Sunset City was where the experts gathered.  It was one out of eight Second Grade Main Cities in the Chinese Server, but Sunset City alone had six out of the top ten in the Chinese Server!  I had already caught up with my quick leveling, suppressing the second place Ghost Fire and almost catching up to Ling Yue.  It wouldn't take long before I took my place back as first in the Chinese Server.  There was no other way, the Dragon Whisperer's equipment and skills were too strong and with the Thousand Bladed Arrows while leveling, I couldn't stop myself from going fast.

Ling Xue came forward and reached out her little hand, "Little fool, give me half of the gold coins.  I'll give it to big sister"

I immediately traded over a thousand gold coins.

Ling Xue asked with a smile, "Hei, did you embezzle any?"

"No!"

"Then why is it exactly 1000?  Could it be that exactly 2000 gold coins were dropped?"

"Yes, your math is good."

"......"

Ling Xue looked at the equipment on the ground and said with a smile, "Let me see the equipment, alright?"

"As you wish!"

I said with a smile as Ling Xue had already picked up the equipment from the ground.  There was a sharp sword glowing with lightning that was in a cone shape.  There was lightning that flicker on the sword that clearly showed traces of lightning energy, showing off a powerful might!  There was also another golden shield that was covered in lightning that looked very powerful and had an ancient style to it!

There was nothing else other than that, the boss had only dropped these two pieces of equipment

Ling Xue shared the stats of the sword while smiling.

[Thunderclap Sword] (Dark Gold Equipment)

Attack: 320-395

Strength: +21

Vitality: +12

Agility: +12

Additional: Has a chance to affect enemies with paralysis and hit them hard.

Slots: 2

Required Level: 55

(Unappraised)

I was surprised, this really was a good sword!  The attack wasn't weak even before being appraised and the additional attack effect, if the rate was over 5%, then it would be very terrifying!

Ling Xue was filled with joy as she said, "Little fool~This sword's attack power is already higher than the Light Flow Sword before it's appraised"

I revealed a smile, "Of course.  The Light Flow Sword is a level 30 Gold Sword and this Thunderclap Sword is a level 55 Dark Gold Sword!  Not only is its attack power strong, even its additional effects are stronger!"

"Un!"

Ling Xue nodded before awkwardly looking up to me and saying, "But, you worked so hard to get this sword and if I take it, it really is a bit wrong"

"Yo!  Ling Xue can actually become embarrassed?"  Seeing the beautiful face of the little beauty, I couldn't help teasing her.

Ling Xue's face turned red and she angrily said, "Of course I'm not embarrassed!  You should just go and sell this sword!"

I took the Thunderclap Sword and tentatively asked, "If I sold this Thunderclap Sword, would you make me buy it back?"

"No"  Ling Xue said in an insincere voice.

"Really?"

"Really"

Ling Xue's beautiful face became even more tempting and I couldn't keep teasing her, so I said with a serious look, "Ling Xue, do you like this Thunderclap Sword?"

"No!"  Ling Xue shook her head, but then she looked at the glowing lightning around the Thunderclap Sword and said, "That lightning is so beautiful"

I couldn't help smiling as I traded the Thunderclap Sword to her, "Ling Xue, take it.  Consider it a late birthday present from me.  Don't you celebrate your birthday twice a year?  The Light Flow Sword is the first one and this Thunderclap Sword is the second one."

Ling Xue said in a low voice, "But I never gave you anything"

I couldn't help secretly laughing before thinking, "Do you need to give me anything?  As long as you stay with me, that is the greatest gift from the heavens!"

Of course, I didn't dare say this because I didn't know what Ling Xue was thinking and couldn't guess at it.

So I said, "When I think of something to ask you for, let's talk!"

Ling Xue nodded before saying with a smile, "Alright, then let's look at this shield!"

"Un."

There was lightning that flickered on the shield, so it might have a lightning attribute as well!

Ling Xue quickly pasted the stats of the shield and it was as I had expected.

[Thunderclap Rampart]  (Dark Gold Equipment)

Defense: 275

Strength: +17

Vitality: +12

Additional: There's a chance to reflect attacks dealing large lightning damage when this is equipped.

Required level: 55

(Unappraised)

I was surprised, such strong defense!

Ling Xue held the shield forward and said with a smile, "Come, you should take this!  I already received the Dark Gold Heavenly Flame Shield last time, so you should go and sell it this time!"

I took the shield and said, "No need to sell it, the Dragon Whisperer Job can equip it."

"What!?"

Ling Xue's enticing mouth opened wide and only after a while, she muttered, "Then last time when you got the Heavenly Flame Shield, why did you not even think about before giving it to me?"

I was surprised before quickly saying with a smile, "ThisI saw that you liked it and you wouldn't have let it end if I didn't give it to you."

Ling Xue had a rare moment of seriousness as she looked at me and asked in a soft voice, "Little fool, why are you this good to me?"

I was also surprised before I hesitantly said, "ThatI am a part of the Xue Yue Studio and your big sister is my boss, so of course I'm good to you.  It isn't easy to get fed in these times and for this, I would even jump into a moat if you wanted me too"

"Oh?  It's because of big sister"  Ling Xue revealed a disappointed look.

I wanted to explain, but there wasn't a need since Ling Xue had been playing since the beginning.

So I put the Thunderclap Rampart in my inventory and said, "Ling Xue, let's go back to the city.  It's already getting late and we haven't eaten all day, so we should go and get something to eat!"

"Un!"

Ling Xue nodded before being surprised.  It was like she was talking to someone on her communicator and after a few minutes, she turned back to say, "Little fool!  My classmates are in Sunset City and I need to lend them a few hundred gold coins.  You should come too to get to know them~"

I was surprised, "Do I need to get to know your classmates?"

"Of course!  You have to know all the people by my side.  Are you not afraid of other people having bad intentions?"  Ling Xue angrily said.

I could only give a nod, "Alright, then let's go after getting the equipment appraised!"

"Alright!"

Taking out a City Return Scroll, I returned to Sunset City the next moment and the White Bone Wilderness trip was finally over.

I rushed to the appraiser with an anxious feeling.  This Dark Gold Shield's requirement was level 55, so I could already equip it!

At the appraiser, there were several level 40 players appraising something.  One of the clerics named "Skilled Gynecologist" happily held a piece of cloth armour while laughing, "Wa, ha, ha!  It's a piece of Silver Equipment!  God, it's Silver Equipment that increases healing by 12%, I'm rich!  From this day forth, I will be the number one healer in Sunset City!"

The other people all said in a disdainful voice, "Hey, look at this kid!  Sword Flame's Purple Rhyme is a level 50 cleric and who knows how many pieces of Gold Equipment she has.  It would be good if you're healing is even 75% of hers!"

The cleric was embarrassed, "You heartless fellows, father won't level with you tomorrow!"

"Don't big brother Skilled!"

The group ran off, only looking at me and Ling Xue with surprised looks.

Ling Xue came forward and put the Thunderclap Sword on the table.  The appraiser was surprised before saying in a shocked voice, "Gods!  ThisThis is the legendary treasure!"

Ling Xue said with a smile, "Can you make the appraisal fee cheaper?"

"1500 gold coins, 1200 after the discount!"

"Alright!"

Ling Xue used her charm to get a discount again.  I was filled with envy before secretly tossing the Thunderclap Rampart to her and sending a private message, "Beauty Xue, please help me appraise this too!"

Ling Xue was speechless seeing this.  At the same time, the thunder around the sword lit up and the sharp sword's powerful stats were revealed.

[Thunderclap Sword] (Dark Gold Equipment)

Attack: 450-580

Strength: +32

Vitality: +28

Agility: +25

Additional: Has a chance to affect enemies with paralysis and hit them hard.

Slots: 2

Required Level: 55

I was stunned.  A piece of level 55 equipment could have this kind of attack power, it simply was too terrifying!  580 attack power was over 300 higher than the Light Flow Sword and there were two slots.

Ling Xue's mouth couldn't close from her happiness as she said with a smile, "I just need to level up three times and I can use this new weapon!  I'll go and hunt the skeletons tomorrow with big sister~"

I nodded and said with a smile, "That, help me appraise my shield too!"

Ling Xue revealed a smile and went back.  The appraiser was charmed by this little beauty and only asked for 1000 gold coins.

I gave Ling Xue 1000 gold coins and soon when the Thunderclap Rampart appeared in my hands again, there were new stats and a new thunder glow around the golden shield.

[Thunderclap Rampart]  (Dark Gold Equipment)

Defense: 420

Magic Defense: 180

Strength: +35

Vitality: +24

Agility: +22

Additional: There's a chance to reflect attacks dealing large lightning damage when this is equipped.

Required Level: 55

I held my breath as the stats of the shield didn't disappoint me!  It had a base 420 defense, turning me into one of the best iron shields in Sunset City!  The only one who could compete with me in terms of defense was Ling Xue with the Heavenly Flame Shield!  But, the Heavenly Flame Shield had a requirement of level 60, so it was too early and I had the Heavenly Flame Boots with the same name, so I would be even stronger at level 60!

So I quickly equipped the Thunderclap Shield and my stats changed.

Easily Angered Bookworm (Dragon Whisperer)

Level: 55

HP: 4200

Attack: 1105-1305 (Spear) 895-1020 (Bow)

Defense: 1160

Magic Defense: 400

Prestige: 2890

Luck: 0

With my attack at 1160, if I faced that arrogant Dark Ghost General with this defense, there wouldn't have been any problems with Qin Yun's healing!  Moreover, the Thunderclap Rampart increased my Magic Defense by 180, so my Magic Defense had reached a terrifying 400 points.  When it came to magician at the same level, I would be able to negate 50% of their damage and it would be even higher when facing lower level magicians!

With the best gear, it wouldn't be problem fighting a bunch of magicians alone when it came to PK!

My confidence suddenly surged!  After equipping the Thunderclap Rampart, the system adjusted the appearance of the shield.  The Thunderclap Rampart became a small thunder symbol that was on the armour over my arm.  Ling Xue's sword slashed over and the hidden Thunderclap Rampart appeared, releasing a bolt of lightning as it blew the sword away!

"Pa!"

Ling Xue was surprised as she lost 248 HP!

I couldn't help laughing and shaking Ling Xue by the shoulder as I said with a smile, "Hey!  Were you stunned by the lightning?"

Ling Xue snappily looked at me and said, "Go, my classmates are waiting outside.  After we trade the gold coins, we can go get some food.  I'm so hungry that I almost can't walk anymore"

I revealed a faint smile, "It's fine, I can just carry you downstairs!"

Ling Xue's face turned red, "In your dreams!"

When we came to the Sunset City square, there were a group of young men and women waiting.  There were three men and one woman.

Looking over, two of them were berserkers and were tall and strong, so they should be Ling Xue's students.  The other person was standing there with a sword and looked very handsome.  He was standing in a set of glowing silver armour and had a faint smile as he was stunned looking at Ling Xue.

Suddenly my heart skipped a beat!  This kid was very threatening to me!

I looked at his equipment and it could be considered good.  It should be a set of Silver Equipment.  A level 47 Swordsman named Spring and Autumn Chaotic Dance!

Beside Spring and Autumn Chaotic Dance was a lively young girl, a level 45 cleric named Jiangnan Small Bridge.  After seeing Ling Xue, Jiangnan Small Bridge ran over with a smile and said, "Xiao Xue, we finally found you in the game!  The core members of Xue Yue Studio really are busy!"

Ling Xue said with a giggle, "How so, it was Xiao Qiao who didn't come look for me!"

Jiangnan Small Bridge looked at me and revealed a surprised look before saying with a smile, "Xiao Xue, this should be Xue Yue Studio's Easily Angered Bookworm, right?  Hee, hee, he really is a handsome brother.  It's no wonder you didn't come back to the school to see us after going to the studio!"

Ling Xue's face turned red, "How so!"

I came forward and said, "Ling Xue, how about you introduce me to them?"
