Chapter 12: How Dare You!

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

“How can you have such a thing?” Tang Jing was extremely shocked. He could not figure out why Xu Fan would have a dungeon pass that only the children of aristocratic families had.

“A friend gave it to me. It’s hard to reject his kindness.” Xu Fan’s face was full of mischief, and everyone around him wanted to beat him up.

Tang Jing was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He originally wanted to use his superiority as a member of an aristocratic family to suppress him, but he did not expect to be countered by Xu Fan.

Coincidentally, his sister was not around this time, and no one could smooth things over for him. Tang Jing was extremely embarrassed now, and he wished he could find a hole to hide in.

“No. 035, Xu Fan, No. 038, Tang Jing!”

The person calling the number on the other side of the instance dungeon shouted at the top of his lungs and even called Xu Fan and Tang Jing together.

Tang Jing had no choice but to follow Xu Fan into the dungeon despite his unwillingness.

Due to the small number of people, even those who entered the dungeon together were separated by a certain distance.

This dungeon was called Desolate Sick Village, and the iconic monster was the Plague Ghost. Although it sounded mysterious, they were actually just a group of zombies infected with a strange disease. Its specialty was its slow movement speed, but there were many of them. As long as the level was suitable, this was the most convenient place to gain experience.

As soon as he landed, Tang Jing looked around for his teammates. After all, this wasn’t a newbie dungeon. Even the slow-moving Plague Ghosts could put a player in a tough fight alone. However, he did not expect that the first person Tang Jing found was actually Xu Fan, who had already reunited with his teammates.

Of course, he didn’t know about the artifact spirit. He was just curious about how Xu Fan managed to find his two teammates in such a short time. But he had no choice. He was courting death by acting alone in such a place. Now that he had a ready-made bodyguard, Tang Jing could not let him go. At most, he would follow Xu Fan first. Even if he lost some experience, it would not be too late to make up for it after finding a teammate.

Thinking of this, Tang Jing crawled out of the bushes and moved toward Xu Fan with a very awkward expression.

It looked like Xu Fan was discussing tactics with his teammates. He recognized the tall and slender Ming Shu, but what about the white-haired girl beside her? Where did Xu Fan find such a young and beautiful teammate?

No, the problem was the girl’s appearance. For her to be able to enter this instance dungeon, it meant that she was at least level 15. But looking at her appearance, she was at most fifteen or sixteen years old.

What was going on? Could it be that this little girl was a one-in-a-million peerless genius?

In other words, although she looked very young, she was actually an adult.

Damn, this is too unreasonable. Why does Xu Fan have to take all the good things?

“You also have to pay attention to your speed. Although Plague Ghosts have low HP, they have an undying characteristic. In order to truly kill him, he had to make sure that the head or the heart was broken.” As Tang Jing approached, he heard Xu Fan’s words.

As expected, he was explaining to the two girls how to clear this dungeon.

To be honest, Xu Fan’s knowledge and familiarity with the dungeon’s mechanism and the monster’s abilities were far beyond his reach. If he hadn’t awakened his blacksmith profession, someone like Xu Fan would have become a true genius and a peerless prodigy.

Unfortunately, there was something called fate. At the thought of this, Tang Jing couldn’t help but smile faintly.

At this moment, Xu Fan’s last sentence was transmitted over: “Finally, to stimulate your fighting spirit, I’ll add another reward. Whoever kills more monsters in five minutes will get the right to kiss.”

Are you crazy? Xu Fan, is your brain okay? It was one thing for them to spend so much effort to kill monsters for you, but you didn’t even give them experience.

What did he say? The reward was the right to kiss?

Kiss my ass! Who cares about your kiss?

On the other side, Ming Shu could no longer suppress her excitement and pulled out her sword. Chi Luo, who was beside her, did the same. She raised her staff high and waved it eagerly.

What the hell! Am I crazy or are you guys crazy? Tang Jing looked at the scene in front of him and felt that his worldview was about to be shattered.

He knew that Xu Fan was very popular with women. It was the same when he was in school. He didn’t know what was going on, but this fellow seemed to be more mature than his peers. He was also knowledgeable and always had some strange ideas. Many girls in the school followed him around all day, almost treating him as a star.

But he was a blacksmith!

After awakening his profession, those guys who liked to pester Xu Fan and chat about everything disappeared. Because everyone knew that there was almost no future in life professions. After entering society, everyone still looked at your strength.

A blacksmith could at most guarantee that he would not starve to death. In most cases, he could not even improve his living standards. How could he possibly take care of the women around him?

But now, not only did he have a beauty by his side, but he also had two at once! They were even willing to kill monsters for him for a kiss.

Xu Fan, how dare you?

Most importantly, the two women beside Xu Fan were very strong! He had seen Ming Shu’s strength before, and this time, she seemed to be much stronger than before.

After Chi Luo, who was beside Xu Fan, attacked once, Tang Jing fell into self-doubt.

They were both Mages, but when Chi Luo fought, she looked completely different from the Mages who only knew how to hide behind the team and cast spells. Compared to the Mages, she looked more like a Berserker. She took the lead and was even ahead of Ming Shu.

She raised his long-handled staff high up in the air and smashed it onto the ground like a giant hammer. The blood magic shockwave that was triggered even sent enemies within a dozen meters away.

Cone-shaped blood crystals appeared beside each of the enemies that were sent flying. It was very similar to the skill used by the blood-red sandworm.

Then, she stood still and stabbed her staff into the ground in front of her. With a wave of her left hand, an extremely powerful shock wave was released.

Spellcasting without a staff! Was this really a skill that a Mage of her age should have mastered?

Even Tang Jing, who was also a Mage, was stunned by her actions.
