Chapter 114: Hyena

Charge was no doubt a preemptive trump card . Being a melee fighter without Charge was a total handicap!

I locked onto a nearby Crystal Crab and used Charge!

Whoos.h.!.+

As if four engines had been revved, I turned into a streak of lightning and shot out, instantly appearing before the Crystal Crab . Without the poor creature even realizing what was happening, a mark appeared above its head, signifying stunned state .

Pardon! Desperate Gambit!

Both skills were instantly cast and when I turned to disengage, I saw the Crystal Crab waving its huge pincers at the air, rippling out four gorgeous MISS messages .  

Tsk tsk . A one-second stun was just too amazing . It would let me kill mobs without getting damaged at all!

I finished the crab, calmed down, then ran to the edge of the forest to set up a tent .  Time to log out!

……

The other four were already waiting inside the workshop’s living room . Like before, Gui Guzi looked like he was going to an interview, Du Thirteen dressed like a hooligan, Beiming Xue was in a T-s.h.i.+rt and short skirt while I and Mamate just looked unremarkable, one wearing Jeanswest and the other, Semir .

“Where should we go for dinner?” I asked .

“Anywhere, going to a bar is more important tonight!”

“Okay . ”

And so we had dinner in a small roadside restaurant . When the sun set, and it was 7:30 pm in the evening, our group arrived at the only bar in the area: Hot Club . It was a bar with a youthful concept . Those who would come there were either students or people like us .

The inside lighting was dreamy and we saw a few charming girls sitting near the counter the moment we went in .

We found a table and took our seats . A waitress walked over and asked for our order .

Beiming Xue’s beautiful eyes swept over and she suddenly smiled . “Beauty, we’re not ordering anything yet . Can you come back in ten minutes?”

The waitress nodded . “Alright~”

“Lil Beiming, what are you planning?” I asked .

Beiming Xue immediately stood up and moved her seat to side beside me . She reached out and pointed with a finger . “Gui Guzi, Brother Thirteen, Mamate, go sit on the sofa in front of us . Let’s play a game!”

Du Thirteen asked, “What game?”

“Brain teasers . I’ll be with Lu Chen and you three will be another team . Each team will ask the other questions . Best of three . Whichever team loses will foot the bill . How about it? You up for it?”

Du Thirteen laughed . “Haha, Lil Beiming you’re seriously asking for it . Brain teasers are a cinch for someone who reads a ton of books like me!”

“Okay, let’s begin!”

Beiming Xue took out her cellphone and lightly slapped the table . Smiling with crafty eyes, she said, “First question . Please listen carefully . What is a man who is trusted to guard a woman's chast.i.ty without fail?”

Du Thirteen was shocked . His face turned grim .

Mamate said, “Is it someone h.o.m.os.e.xual or as.e.xual?”

Gui Guzi nodded continuously . “Mamate’s smart!”

Beiming Xue indifferently answered, “No, an eunuch!”

“d.a.m.n…”

Du Thirteen was angry . “My turn . Please listen carefully . A bear without a tail is called a tailless bear . What is a bear without a d.i.c.k called?”

Beiming Xue calmly answered, “Mother bear!”

“d.a.m.n…”

1:0!

Beiming Xue beamed and continued . “Second question . Please listen carefully . Brother Thirteen transmigrated to the North Pole and encountered a polar bear . How can he handle the polar bear without a weapon?”

Du Thirteen, Gui Guzi, and Mamate stared blankly .

Beiming Xue gently smiled . “He can pee out a sword…”

“d.a.m.n…”

They were about to go mad . Since it was their last chance, Du Thirteen stifled his anger and said with a clear voice . “Second question . Please listen carefully . After going to the toilet, do you use your left hand or your right hand to wipe your peepee?

Beiming Xue was immediately stunned and her face flushed red .

I smiled . “It’s better to use toilet paper…”

“Oh~no…”

They had been totally destroyed . Du Thirteen’s party suffered a 2:0 defeat .

We began to order . Beiming Xue wanted two gla.s.ses of fruit juice . I ordered two bottles of beer and some snacks . All this was billed to Du Thirteen . He was in charge of our workshop’s finances anyway so he should have quite a bit of money in his pockets .

Du Thirteen couldn’t accept his loss and wanted a rematch with Beiming Xue . I spoke out, “Your brain teasers are too vulgar, it’s better to chat about some pure things!”

Mamate nodded repeatedly . “Right, pure things!”

The three of them looked at me but I was also at a loss . I glanced at Beiming Xue and said a bit helplessly, “It seems like aside from Beiming, we don’t have anything beautiful and pure…”

……

As a result, the five of us played cards all the way until 9 pm .

My phone suddenly rang with my jingling ringtone . I checked the throbbing screen and found a familiar name on the screen, Wind Fantasy . It was Lin Yixin .

“What’s up, Beauty Yi?”

“Lu Chen, why didn’t I see you online tonight?”

“Oh, I went out with everyone to relax…”

“You’re taking a bath?”

“f.u.c.k, where the h.e.l.l did your mind wander off to? We’re at a bar! What’s up?”

“Nothing . ” Lin Yixin giggled . “I just wanted to remind you that you should quickly level up . Dominating Heaven Blade’s leveling really fast . If you let him get to Level 60 and the third promotion first, you’ll regret it…”

“Mn, I’ll be back soon!”

I hung up and discovered four pairs of eyes that were up to no good staring at me .

“f.u.c.k, why are you looking at me like that for?”

Beiming Xue smiled . “Lin Yixin?”

“Mn . ”

“You guys have a good relations.h.i.+p…”

“What’re you trying to say?”

Mamate rubbed his round belly and smiled like a deputy military adviser . “Your Highness, I saw a ton of people on the forums praising Wind Fantasy, Lin Yixin, saying that this girl had both brains and beauty . They also said something like ‘Whoever gets this girl will get the world’ . How about you work hard to get her so our plan of b.l.o.o.d.y Mercenaries revitalizing Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls can move up in schedule… In short, go get ‘em!”

I shot him a glance . “Do you really think a girl like Lin Yixin can be wooed that easily?”

Mamate shook his head .

I spread my hands and smiled . “That’s why you shouldn’t even think about it . It’s unrealistic, so we should be thinking about our future goals and objectives . ”

Mamate said, “I need to reach Rank 6 Armorsmithing as soon as possible . You’re also pus.h.i.+ng Rank 6 Cooking, right Lu Chen? Once both are Rank 6, our workshop’s funds won’t be a problem . ”

I nodded . “Then work hard . Let’s buy our workshop a dedicated car first . What do you think?”

Beiming Xue smiled happily . “Of course that’s great . If our workshop has its own car, we don’t need to squeeze in public transport and get taken advantage of by weird uncles…”

“ . . . ” We all turned into stone .

……

By the time we returned to the workshop, it was already 10 pm, but none of us were sleepy, so we all logged on and got ready to grind .

Swhoos.h.!.+

I appeared at Silverscale Coast and made my way out of the tent . My waist was sore and my back hurt . Not sleeping in a grave really made me feel unwell!

Let’s not rush to kill mobs . I’ll go head over to the NPC Scout Captain .  He had a hesitant expression yesterday, as though he wanted to say something . He definitely still had a quest to give me, else he wouldn’t have worn that expression . .

As expected, the moment I arrived, Dakara spread his hands and let out a loud laugh . “You’re here, young warrior! A few Savage Hyenas have recently appeared in Silverscale Coast’s forest area . Unlike your average hyenas, they have the power to tear through armor . These hyenas are a huge hindrance to our patrols and I hope you can help me out . Kill 500 Savage Hyenas and I will generously reward you!”

Ding~!

System Notice: Do you want to accept the quest [Savage Hyena]? (Current Quest Difficulty: B)

I accepted the quest and it appeared in my active quest list .

I opened the map and a dense expanse of red appeared in the nearby forest area . It was precisely the hyena territory . As long as I went there and killed 500 of them, reaching Level 60 shouldn’t be much of an issue by the time I turned in my quest .

The Ghost Ice Soul was suffused with a dim red color . This was the pa.s.sive effect of the Undead Energy skill . Even though Lin Yixin had Killer Wind Swordplay to boost her grinding speed, my Undead Energy gave me a boost in many places, whether it be crab, spearfish, or hyena . Undead Energy V offered an increase of 25%, it was nothing to scoff at!

I looked in my bag . There were 37 stacks of Fish Meat and then some, for a total of over 3700, easily enough to make a ton of Rank 6 Magic Consumables . The only thing left for me to do was to rush to Level 60!

I pa.s.sed through the forest filled with early morning mist . Distinct sounds of low yelps traveled to my ears . I had already entered hyena territory .

An agile feature suddenly pounced over before I had even taken a few steps . As I had predicted, it was a red-eyed dog covered in red and yellow spots . Its teeth were unusual, like steel knives hanging by its lips . Thick saliva dripped down its fangs—

Savage Hyena

Level: 65

Attack: 415~450

Defense: 340

HP: 6200

Skills: Rend

Introduction: Silverscale Coast’s mutated species, possesses strong attack power and fast recovery .

……

It’s still a Level 65 monster, no pressure!

I quickly moved out of the hyena’s attack range and struck it on the head!

“Awoo…”

With the appearance of a 765 damage number, the hyena no longer dared to underestimate me but my next move gave me an even bigger ecstasy . Ice Ray + Slayer Slash smashed into its head, causing even higher damage numbers to float—

894!

912!

My Dark Wasp followed up with a 3-hit Flurry . After my 6-second cooldown was over, I swiftly lashed out with Pardon and Desperate Gambit to end the Savage Hyena’s life!

Ding~!

System Notice: Congratulations, your skill Desperate Gambit has reached Rank 5!

……

“Haha, finally Rank 5!”

I opened the skill details . Desperate Gambit V increased attack damage by 50% and lowered the target’s Defense by 25% . Coupled with Pardon, it was the ultimate tool of murder!

I looked at the Savage Hyena on the floor . Death Plunder!

Pop!

A dog pelt appeared in my bag . It was a Rank 5 pelt .  Very nice, I’ll give it to Mamate when I’m back .

I cruised through the forest area of Silverscale Forest and killed all the way to 3 am, when I finally reached Level 60, a pillar of golden light was.h.i.+ng over me .

When I turned in my quest, I was Level 60 with 17% experience . Time to head back to the city and go to Frost Mound to receive my third-promotion quest!
