Synopsis 1:Former CCG champion Xia Yao was accused by her peers of match-fixing and was banned from participating in any esports competitions for 3 years. To support herself, Xia Yao became a game ...
In the resurrection hall of the Perth Empire, the four players looked at each other with indescribable embarrassment on their faces.
It was so pathetic that their Black and White Wind Shadow was actually killed by a few individual players who hadn't even joined a guild?
What’s even more outrageous is that some of them don’t even know how they died!
"Aren't you an assassin? Why are you back?" The hunter who died first didn't know what happened next, so he had to ask his teammates.
The assassin glanced at the hunter and said in an unhappy tone: "I don't know!"
"Huh? You don't even know how you died?" The hunter who died first shortly after going up also looked unhappy. "I can't believe the guild leader took you all through the map for so long and got you several skill books, and this is the end? Tsk."
"What did you say! Say it again if you dare!" The assassin was so angry that he grabbed the hunter's collar and was about to fight.
Seeing this, the two mages who died later hurried over to rescue people.
"Stop arguing. What's the point of fighting among yourselves?" The female mage looked at the two of them and felt even more angry. But she had to hold it in, otherwise the whole team would be in chaos.
The male mage quickly tried to smooth things over, "Our captain's still here, right? Don't worry, everyone! He's got better equipment than any of us. He'll definitely be able to handle those tattered players!"
"That's right. Our main mission is to pull the monster over here. As long as the captain delivers the final blow to the monster, our mission is accomplished. Understood?"
The female mage stared at the assassin and the hunter, who then stopped fighting, shook their arms, found an empty spot and sat on the ground, ready to wait for good news from the captain.
Who knew that the next moment, the light of resurrection flashed, and then the light went out, and out walked... their captain!
"Captain, you..." The female mage opened her mouth slightly, realizing something.
"Captain, our mission..." The assassins and hunters were both young and inexperienced. They surrounded their captain and started asking questions, but were immediately signaled to shut up by the others.
The male knight Sword Demon King slowly lowered his head and touched his empty chest. His armor, which was one of the few black iron armors left at the time, actually fell out at the moment of his death!
The sinister look in his eyes suddenly intensified. He fiddled with the hem of his shirt, which was only left underneath, and lifted his eyelids to look around. Then, in a deep voice, he spoke word by word, "If the Vice President asks, just say we were ambushed and the monster was stolen. Remember, you are not allowed to say a single word about what happened today! Otherwise, don't blame me, the Sword Demon King, for being merciless."
"yes."
They joined the guild much later than the Sword Demon King, and were not as experienced or prestigious as the latter. Offending him would only bring disaster upon themselves, so they all spoke in unison with serious expressions.
Moonlight Lake.
Xia Yao gave the Bass Beast the final blow and successfully completed the mission.
The group cheered, happy that the mission was accomplished, and even more proud that they had dealt a heavy blow to the attacker.
Perhaps it was a rare opportunity for them to vent their anger, so Xia Yao did not stop them and let them have fun.
The Bass Beast is an elite monster and dropped a lot of materials. Xia Yao didn't need them, so she only picked up 5 bone grains for herself and then led everyone back the same way.
When they reached the bridge again, she and the math, physics, and chemistry students were already prepared to brave winds and waves, but they didn't encounter any strong winds in the valley until they had finished the whole journey.
"Strange, why is it not making noise now? Is it random?" Wushan scratched his head, confused.
"That wind is probably caused by the Bass Beast." Xia Yao thought for a moment and replied, "Whenever anyone approaches Moonlight Lake, it will use wind and waves to knock people off the bridge."
Then he recalled the group of people who attacked them. They had clean faces and were neatly dressed. They didn't look like they came from the bridge at all. So there was only one possibility: they used a private teleportation array.
A private teleportation array, Xia Yao sighed in her heart, what a group of rich and powerful people.
She memorized the IDs of those five people in her mind, and randomly picked the name of the male knight and searched in the search box. Oh, Xia Yao couldn't help but raise her eyebrows, it turned out to be the one from Black and White Wind Shadow.
Quite interesting.
She curled the corners of her lips. Wasn't it Bai Yexing, the vice-president of Black and White Wind Shadow, who had been sowing discord behind her back and causing her guild to become alienated from her?
It was the first time for Shulihua and Wushan Leng to come to the Scholars' Academy. They craned their necks to look at the slightly dilapidated building. For a moment, they didn't know whether to marvel at the mystery of the Scholars' Academy or the extraordinary exploration ability of Master Yinyao.
Xia Yao naturally didn't know what the others were thinking. Since she had accepted the task, she was the one who knocked on the door.
The door opened automatically, revealing the quaint main hall before them.
A female NPC named Ashaya walked out from behind the bookshelf with a smile. "So it was you who defeated the Beast of Bass. Well done, you did an excellent job. This is a small gift from me, please accept it."
As he spoke, each of them handed out a small wooden box. Wushan Leng couldn't wait to open it, but what was inside disappointed him greatly.
"Ah... Just 10 gold coins and a pair of boots..." He muttered softly.
He picked up several pairs of boots, but he had no use for them, so he sold them all at a low price.
Seeing this, Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry also nervously opened the wooden box, then breathed a sigh of relief: "Mine is okay, it contains ten bottles of potion."
They were all big bottles, containing red potions, blue potions, and purple potions for acceleration. If you bought them yourself, it would cost you more than 300 gold coins, so he made a profit.
As for Sandaofo and Erdaoliu, they each opened a mage skill book and 50,000 experience points, which are pretty good overall.
Finally it was Xia Yao's turn. Perhaps because she had chosen to take on the task herself, Xia Yao always felt that Ashaya's gaze at her was full of recognition and satisfaction?
But she was still a little nervous because she didn't know what was in the box that Ashaya gave her.
With anticipation and trepidation, under the burning gazes of the other four people, she slowly opened the lid of the box and saw a small ball of light?
"Wow, what is this?" Wushan Leng couldn't help but ask.
"It looks like some kind of incredible energy ball?" To be honest, I don't know much about math, physics or chemistry.
However, the pupils of Sandabutsu and Nidao Liu suddenly shrank. They looked at each other in surprise, and saw shock in each other's eyes.
[(Private Chat) San Dao Fo: Wow, no way, she actually got the talent?]
[(Private Chat) Dual Blade Style: What do you mean by "actually"? The power of the Renda boss is there, shouldn't he get it? (white eyes.jpg)]
[(Private chat) Sandaofo: Oh no, that's not what I meant. I meant, there are only 50 Talent Orbs in the entire server, and you opened the first one already. Wow, I'm jealous!]
[(Private Chat) Two-Way Flow: ...same bitterness]
Not knowing that the two people beside her had already become bored from chatting, Xia Yao slowly reached into the small wooden box and gently took out the ball of light.
When she touched the light ball, it immediately flew into the air. The light emitted by the ball became more and more dazzling, until finally it penetrated into her body with a whoosh. Xia Yao opened her eyes in shock.
System: [Congratulations, you have obtained the scholar talent [Poem of Life]]
[Poem of Life: When you receive a critical hit, dispel your negative status and restore 10% of your health. You will not die for the next 3 seconds. This effect can only be triggered once within 24 hours.]
Xia Yao:!
Golden medal of immunity from death!
And it doesn't require any magic reserves to be consumed!
What’s the difference between this and freeloading?
Xia Yao excitedly accepted the reward, not knowing that her name was once again posted by the system.
[Congratulations to player Yinyao for receiving her first talent reward! She was awarded the title "Follower of Talent"]
[Talented Follower: Permanently increase all attribute caps by 8%]
"Oh shit! There's a title reward!" Even the insider Sandao Fo was surprised.
“…Well, and all attributes are increased…” Erdao Liu felt that the word “sour chicken” was not enough to describe his current state. We were all human, so why was there such a big gap between us?
Many players around the world have also noticed Xia Yao's talent rewards.
What are talent rewards? I don't see where I can claim them.
[Is this a special mission? Please explain it to me.]
[I remember she had received a mission from the Scholars' House before. Could it be that?]
[Oh shit, I remember now! Fight the Bass Beast at Moonlight Lake!]
【? 】
[Oh my god! I got it at the Professional Hall! But I didn't go! Ahhhh, I'm going to team up and fight monsters right now! Hurry up and join me!]
「Well, although this may be a bit disheartening, I want to say that this mission is a one-time thing.」
【!!! 】
【Feeling like I missed out on 100 million! 】
[Hey guys, who lied to us back then, saying this monster would spawn? Hurry up and stand out, or I'll kill you!]
…
Before leaving the Scholar's House, Dean Ashaya gave Xia Yao another task - [Catch the Tulu people who are causing trouble outside the city (0/3)]
This mission can be done alone or in a team. She always takes convenience into consideration. Since she can do it alone, why bother to form a team?
Unfortunately, she had very little strength left and the system issued a fainting warning. She had no choice but to return to Ophelia's residence and use the excuse of using Aldridge's studio to stay for one night.
Perhaps because of her previous good performance, Ophelia happily agreed and even gave her the key to the studio.
"It takes a tremendous amount of energy to become an excellent enchanter. Since you have become my brother's apprentice, you can use his studio from now on. You don't need to ask me for help in the future."
Ophelia looked at her with hope on her face, which made Xia Yao, who had not done any subsequent enchanting tasks, feel a little uneasy.
It doesn’t matter, today is an exception, Xia Yao convinced herself. After going online tomorrow, she will go mining as soon as possible!
Just before logging off, Xia Yao suddenly noticed that the official had sent her an email, and the time displayed was 5 pm. At that time, she was fighting the giant turtle and did not notice the mailbox.
