Fantasy

Chapter 18

Gu Xian’s figure was against the light, the cloth robe was soft which outlined his sturdy body. The dappled light effect shone on his figure was like a layer of glowing aura around him, making him look so immortal and immaculate.

He was that MoWeiZheSan ah….. Wen Zhi’s heart was thumping faster as she stared at him.

Resisting the loud pounding of her heart, she gave a dry chuckle as a greeting without admitting or denying that she was upselling items and continue managing her sales.

However, the person in front of her kept staring at her, and she couldn’t ignore the gaze, making her feel uncomfortable all over again.

Turning her eyes to glance at Gu Xian who was behind her, she saw that the NPCs for learning some life skills were located not far away.

So he was here to learn a skill?

“You’re here to learn skills too?” She replied belatedly: “What a coincidence.”

Gu Xian didn’t reply and just stood there staring at her, his cold gaze had a strong meaning of inspection.

Wen Zhi thought to herself that she was just doing business, did he have to stare at her with such a gaze? She didn’t steal anything.

It was almost time to get offline, she had to hurry. Without caring so much about him, she continues placing items for sale.

Suddenly, a trade request appeared in front of her. Wen Zhi paused for a second, and glanced at Gu Xian before agreeing to the trade.

A few moments later, a sum of gold entered the transaction box and she hesitated for a moment before asking: “This is?”

Why was he giving her money? It wasn’t a small amount but that probably that’s all he had so far.

“Buy all you can get so that other players don’t have a choice.” Gu Xian replied.

“Oh huh?”

Wen Zhi took a moment to realise that Gu Xian was asking her to buy everything at a cheaper price and resell it at a higher cost.

He was the same as before in the Heavenly Dream. During that time, he was not only the number one in terms of combat power in the entire server but he was also one of the best in terms of equipment and wealth. When she was doing business, he would give her all his money to buy out all the items whose prices were within a 20% range higher than her own, so that she could monopolize the market.

She didn’t expect this scene to be repeated again but then Gu Xian also didn’t know who she was, so why would he do that?

Her confusion didn’t last long before Gu Xian explained to her: “The money earned from it, you’ll have to share with me proportionally.”

Heh, he’s really very smart. He couldn’t make his own consumables and equipment so he ended up targeting her. Yet she still wanted to rely on him for levelling so it’s kind of mutually beneficial for now.

Wen Zhi hastily agreed to the transaction and nodded her head in affirmation.

After the golds had transferred into her account, a system announcement appeared at the top of the chat.

[Congratulation to players: BaiLuQingYa1, the first male player in the world server to have sex with 100 different female NPCs. Rewards: 2000 gold coins, 200 reputations, and the title (Hundred Refinement Make Steel).]

Soon the world server was buzzing with discussion:

FengChuangZuoXi2: Holy shit, 100 of them! God, is your kidney okay.

DongFangBuBai3: No way, that’s too fast! Brother, did you shoot in seconds?

TieZhangNaiShangPiao4: All I wanted to say was, damn awesome! Dick exploded?

(T/N: 屌爆了 had two meanings, one was the slang for awesome another literal translation will be dick exploded.)

BoDaJingShen5: We are the same species but the gap is wide… I’ve only slept with 30 of them and I already feel like I’m going to die from over-releasing.

…………

Seeing the username, Wen Zhi’s heart stuttered, it couldn’t be the one she knew right?!

There was also a player called BaiLuQingYa in Heavenly Dream which was a deadly river to Gu Xian and the president of their rival guild.

If this person was really the BaiLuQingYa in Heavenly Dream, when they were to meet in the open world after level 60, it’s going to be another bloody encounter.

She glanced at Gu Xian and the man before her looked calm. He didn’t seem to be concerned with that username?

A great god had the reason to be the great god, look at him, he was so calm and totally composed.

A short moment later, the system announcement lit up again:

[Congratulation to players: BaiLuQingYa, ShiRenYouYun6, LanDeQuMing7, XiaoXiaoMiaoMi8, for completing the first kill in the world server for Daphne! Rewards: 1000 gold coins and 100 reputations. ]

Wen Zhi stared at the announcement and thought to herself that it didn’t take them too long to kill the BOSS after the love-making quest. It seems that there were also monsters to be killed even if they were on the sex quest route and it might be relatively easier instead.

No wonder they levelled up so fast!

However, it was useless to be envious of their fast levelling as she won’t choose such a route to level up herself.

After watching the world chat channel buzz for a while, Wen Zhi continued to sell her stuff.

Only when all the items were placed on sale then did she go offline contentedly.

The reason why there was a compulsory offline setting in the Desolate Forest of Demons was for the sack of the players. Although the game pod had enough fluid to keep the player’s vital signs normal, their brain needed to rest and their body needed to move.

After 168 hours of playing, it was mandatory for the players to go offline to catch up on their sleep. This allowed their brains to rest while restoring their bodies’ coordination functions, and it was one of the game’s humane manifestations.

For a while, Wen Zhi thought about the team who designed this game must be gods as the details were very well thought out. Even the pranks and various evil quests were simply well planned that making her ticked with annoyances.
