Chapter 228 He said he wanted to reach level 9.
Chapter 228 He said he wanted to reach level 9.
Chen You reappeared in the main square of Qianguang City, where the area was still bustling with people.
He didn't rush to act; he started to plan in his mind.
The anniversary celebration will last for seven days in total.
If I take them to do it once a day, at most, there will only be six chances left.
Even if Chen You is blessed with incredible luck, setting off fireworks every day and getting mythical blueprints every time, he can only get a maximum of six items.
Three people, six pieces of equipment, not even enough to complete a set.
Moreover, the equipment that dropped—such as warrior plate armor and archer leather armor—was something even a cultivator like him couldn't wear.
No matter how you look at it, you're not losing out at all.
He opened his backpack and his eyes fell on a pile of bright red cylinders.
[Celebration Commemorative Cannon Salute]
Quantity: 31
After that, you need to accompany those three "working guys" to do it once a day, which will consume six.
I can secretly solo the remaining twenty-five.
After more than twenty tries, I should be able to collect a complete set, right?
He suppressed his excitement, opened the map, and was just about to use the automatic route finding function.
A crisp system notification sounded in my ear.
[Ding! You have a new message. Please check it.]
A bad feeling rose in Chen You's heart, and he opened the message.
[Moon Arrow]: We are ready and can begin at any time.
Immediately afterwards, another system notification appeared.
Player "Moon Arrow" invites you to join the team.
Chen You: "..."
He subconsciously looked around; the square was packed with people, and he couldn't tell who was who at all.
But he always had this feeling that those three people, Salos, Oro, and this Moon Arrow, were definitely in some corner, staring intently at him with an eight-times scope.
They were afraid that he, the hen that lays golden eggs, would secretly slip away and lay an egg himself.
There's no escaping it now.
Chen You sighed and resignedly clicked "accept invitation."
The familiar four-person team has been formed again.
There was a moment of silence in the team chat, as if everyone was waiting for Chen You to speak.
It was Oro who couldn't contain himself the first; his voice, with its distinctive Roman divine accent, seemed to be right next to his ear.
[Aurora]: Immortal Pioneer, do you have any other plans for the future?
Chen You's eyelids twitched involuntarily.
These people are really... they really have no manners at all!
Taking you guys through one dungeon run wasn't enough, you want to pry into my private schedule?
He thought for a moment and replied, "Nothing special is planned."
This statement is very watertight, meaning "it might happen, or it might not."
But Oro clearly had no intention of giving up so easily.
【Auro】: That's right.
He seemed to be carefully choosing his words, trying to make his speech sound less utilitarian.
【Aurora】: We, the Roman gods, also have an ancient and mysterious ritual that allows us to briefly gather good fortune through special altars and prayers.
[Auro]: I think that if we can combine your abilities, perhaps... it will have unexpected and wonderful effects.
Chen You's eyelid twitched.
Good grief, are they planning to graft my "metaphysical" abilities onto their own rituals?
This ability to fill in the blanks is truly something else.
Before he could reply, Salos's rugged avatar lit up.
[Salos]: Yes, yes, yes! We Titans have it too! Our rituals are simpler, mainly... uh, just putting some wreaths around the altar or something, it's not troublesome at all!
"puff--"
Chen You almost choked.
Arrange...arrange flower wreaths?
Dude, are your Titan rituals really that hardcore?
Is this a prayer for blessings or a funeral procession?
He could even picture the scene: himself standing in the middle, surrounded by a circle of wreaths, with Salos and Auro chanting prayers for divine gear.
I can't be the only one getting all the profits!
That's outrageous!
Chen You felt a throbbing sensation in his temples.
He couldn't help himself and almost typed a string of question marks in the team chat.
These Protoss people have no shame when it comes to equipment.
No, I can't keep getting entangled with them.
[Chen You]: Sorry, I just remembered that I need to reach level 90 before the newbie protection period ends, and I'm running out of time.
This reason is irrefutable.
In any game, "leveling up" is the most legitimate and unquestionable reason.
Sure enough, the team chat fell silent.
Saros and Auro stopped thinking when they saw the message, "I want to reach level 90 before the newbie protection period ends."
Chen You ignored them and went straight to the entrance of the [Ten Thousand Fox Cave] instance.
Perfect timing! During the anniversary event, all dungeons offer experience bonuses, and the rewards for running Destruction Mode are incredibly high.
He ignored the other three members of the team and went straight into the dungeon.
A few minutes later, Chen You came out of the Ten Thousand Fox Cave and ran to the Tomb of a Thousand Lights.
A few minutes later, a golden light shot up from his body and surrounded him, lingering for a long time.
Familiar upgrade effects.
[Ding! Congratulations! Your level has increased to LV23 (Sixth Level of Qi Refining)!]
At the same time, a cold, impersonal system message popped up in the team chat.
[Team]: Player "Chen You" has reached level 23.
This message stood out starkly in the team chat.
The channel was deathly silent.
A good ten seconds or so passed.
[Salos]: ...
【Moon Arrow】:......
[Aurora]: ...
A few more seconds passed.
[Salos]: ? ? ?
[Salos]: So... I leveled up??
Saros's words were filled with disbelief.
These level 90+ players can spend days grinding in the most dangerous maps and still not gain more than 1% experience.
In their minds, it would take at least half a month to advance from level 20 to level 1.
And this level 22 guy in front of me, how long has it been, and he's already leveled up again?
Is this reasonable?
This is unreasonable!
【Aurora】: Is the anniversary experience bonus really that terrifying?
Oro was also deeply confused.
Only Moon Arrow seemed to have thought of something.
[Moon Arrow]: Perhaps... this is his true way of leveling up. Destruction mode, world first kill, both come with massive experience rewards.
Her analysis made Salos and Oro even more silent.
Is it possible that being lucky enough makes even gaining experience so easy?
The previously mentioned newbie protection period until level 90 seems to be more than a joke.
But if he really can, then what have I been doing all these past few centuries?
The leaders of the three major races, the three players standing at the pinnacle of this world, all began to question their existence.
Looking at the chat history in the team channel, Chen You always felt like he was being spied on.
You three experts, why do you look like idle young men and women squatting by the roadside doing nothing?
What's with staring at me like that?!
You want to find out more about me?
He thought for a moment, then slowly typed a line of text into the channel.
[Chen You]: Um... Shouldn't you guys be in charge of pioneering the [Road to the King]?
[Chen You]: So free... you've already finished the game?
