Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 357

Chapter 357 The Cracks Were Still There
The answer was naturally no. Actually, there were a lot of Red Dragon skills. All of them added up to about 10. However, single skills accounted for most of them, and single skills were not a threat to Xu You.

Therefore, the three skills that were threatening were the Red Dragon’s Claw, the Giant Dragon’s Tail, and the Blazing Flame Burning Heaven. Among them, the Blazing Flame Burning Heaven was the most threatening, followed by the Giant Dragon’s Tail, and finally the Red Dragon’s Claw. The three skills were all group skills. If Xu You didn’t leave his attack range in time, he would die.

However, as long as he thought of a way to dodge, these three skills would become no longer a threat. The current Xu You was like this. Then, all of the Red Dragon’s skills and attacks could not harm Xu You, so naturally, he would only be beaten up.

In the end, the red dragon could only collapse to the ground with endless unwillingness. At the same time, it closed its eyes filled with resentment. The battle that took more than 12 minutes had also ended.

After the Red Dragon died, he dropped the quest item [Horn of the Red Dragon]. There was also a piece of equipment that emitted a purple glow. It was an Epic grade equipment. However, Xu You temporarily didn’t have time to pay attention to it. After the battle ended and he left the state of “still water in his heart”, he felt dizzy. It was similar to the feeling he had when he finished beating Stone Giant Carlos.

“Will you be kicked off the line again? Then let me pick up the mission items first.” Xu You felt that he couldn’t stand it anymore. If he was kicked off the line and didn’t pick up any mission items, he would have to call again.

Fortunately, after shaking twice, the feeling of dizziness disappeared. He shook his head forcefully and Xu You finally stood firm. He closed his eyes and felt for a few seconds. He felt that he was fine, so he hurriedly picked up the thing that the red dragon had dropped.

The Red Dragon Horn was a quest item, so there was nothing to say, but the purple piece of equipment dropped was of the highest quality.

Wrist of Oregus (Epic): Wrist, Heavy Armor, Endurance +38, Strength +40, Agility +30, Critical Strike +35, Speed +40, Death Rate dropped, Pickup Binding, Equipment Requirement: LV50.

“Hey, your hard work has paid off. I’ve earned it now, haha.” After seeing the attributes of the equipment, Xu You smiled very satisfied. There was another piece of purple equipment. Even though it was the part of the wrist armor that had the least attributes, a Level 50 purple equipment was very precious.

“I wonder if this red dragon will drop any other equipment. Well, it looks like we’ll have to lead the team to fight a few times later.” Xu You quickly came up with the idea of a red dragon.

The red dragon Oregus would refresh. There was no doubt about that. Moreover, this cave was very hidden. No other players had discovered this red dragon yet. Otherwise, this cave would definitely be guarded by someone.

However, the truth was that apart from Xu You, no one else knew that there was a quasi-boss level monster that would drop purple equipment. Then Xu You could kill the Red Dragon Brush equipment repeatedly. There was no reason to let go of such a good opportunity, but now, he could not continue challenging the Red Dragon because Xu You knew that he needed to rest for a while.

As for why the duration of the battle was much shorter, he couldn’t come up with a conclusion. Perhaps he didn’t have enough rest today. After finishing everything, he went offline and had a good rest. This shouldn’t have happened, right?

After packing his belongings, Xu You summoned Flying Snow and flew to the camp in the Young Dragon Mountain Range. Then, he returned to City of Sunrise through the teleportation array.

Very quickly, Xu You arrived at the old man’s home again. This time, the old man couldn’t help but reveal a surprised expression when he saw Xu You. He took the initiative to ask, “Did you complete the mission?”

“Yes, this is the horn of the red dragon. Here!” Xu You handed over the mission items to Gudao.

Gudao took a look and became excited. He said incredulously, “It took you so little time to get the horn of the red dragon. I didn’t misjudge you!”

“Sir, you’re flattering me.” Xu You was still very modest.

“Alright, I’ll give you the 42nd Ring Quest now. Go to the Black Dragon’s nest, kill the Black Dragon there, and bring its eyeballs back!” Gudao looked very excited.

“It’s a dragon again. What exactly does this fellow want to do? Looks like an alchemist. Could it be an epic potion?” Xu You thought to himself and accepted the task.

“If you have the strength, complete the task I gave you as soon as possible. In the end, I won’t treat you unfairly!” Old Man Gudao stared at Xu You with his lifeless eyes and a strange smile on his face.

“I’ll try my best.” Xu You thought the same, but the current conditions did not allow him to do so. He could only wait until night. Seeing Old Man Gudao’s expression, Xu You’s back felt a little cold. This old man hid in this room all day long. His personality was too strange, and his temperament was also cold. He rarely saw such an NPC.

“Then you can go.”

Xu You nodded and left the old man’s house. He had had a lot of contact with the old man, and his people had become much darker. Xu You decided to complete this continuous hidden mission as soon as possible. After receiving the reward, he would withdraw. He would never see this old man again. He always felt that something was wrong with this old man.

After Xu You left, Old Man Gudao laughed nervously again, “I will succeed. I will definitely succeed!”

…

Chenxi villa.

“I’m back.” After returning to the small garden of the villa with the teleportation device, Xu You shouted loudly into the villa. The meaning was very obvious. Your man is back, quickly come out to welcome him.

However, there was no response. Xu You frowned and thought to himself, “Why hasn’t anyone responded? It’s already past 17 o’clock. It can’t be that they’re all offline, right?”

Thinking like this, Xu You opened his friend bar as he walked into the villa. He discovered that Xue Wuhen and the others were online, so where did they go? Did they all wear jewelry and go shopping?

“Wuhen, are you here?” Xu You shouted again, but he still didn’t respond until he walked into the hall of the villa.

“Welcome back.” Just as Xu You entered the hall of the villa, he suddenly heard the voices of all the ladies. Looking closely, he discovered that the ladies were standing at the table side by side. On the table were plates of exquisite snacks and dishes.

“You guys” Xu You was surprised at first. Didn’t the girls say “Welcome back” to him when he returned at noon?

But after seeing the things on the table, Xu You understood. A bright smile appeared on his face and he asked, “Did you cook all these dishes? Thank you for your hard work.”

“Of course not. It was Xiao Wu who did it alone. Because she was the only one who learned the sidelines of cooking, we were just going to buy ingredients to be thugs, so it was Xiao Wu who worked hard.” Xue Wuhen said with a smile.

“Yes, yes, the busiest one this afternoon is Sister Wu.” Zhao Xi nodded.

“That’s right, Youyou, you have to thank Xiao Wu.” Zhao Chen also smiled.

“No, Sister Wuhen, you guys have also helped a lot. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to do so much. You guys are also working very hard.” Qingwu hurriedly shook his head and explained.

Hearing this, Xu You smiled even more brightly. He walked to the chair beside the table and sat down, saying, “Since that’s the case, everyone, sit down and have a meal!”

Looking at the smiling Xu You, Xue Wuhen and the others exchanged glances. They realized that Xu You did not seem to be excited as they imagined. If it was in the past, Xu You would have giggled and ran over to take advantage of them.

“What’s wrong? Sit down.” Xu You urged.

This time, the women obediently sat down on the chairs. However, their beautiful eyes were all staring at Xu You, trying to see something. However, Xu You ignored their eyes and began to “sweep” the food on the table.

“Delicious!” Not long after, Xu You gave the girls a thumbs up and continued to sweep. If anyone saw Xu You eating, they would think that Xu You had returned from the refugee camp.

Seeing that the girls didn’t move, Xu You stopped his chopsticks and asked strangely, “Why aren’t you eating?”

Zhao Chen opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything. He turned his gaze to Xue Wuhen, and so did Qingwu and Zhao Xi. Seeing that, Xue Wuhen could only ask on behalf of the women, “Youyou, are you still angry?”

“What are you angry about?”

“Back in the underground prison …”

“Stop talking.” Hearing Xue Wuhen’s words, Xu You immediately interrupted Xue Wuhen’s words. His tone was slightly heavy, so Xue Wuhen did not dare to speak anymore.

After he blurted out, Xu You realized that he was excited, but he really didn’t want to bring up that matter again, so as not to make everyone unhappy.

Only when Xue Wuhen and the other girls looked at him pitifully did Xu You realize that there was a faint crack between him and them. To be exact, the crack should still be there. Needless to say, the reason was what happened in the underground prison instance dungeon three months ago.

Actually, after meeting again at noon, Xu You, Xue Wuhen, and the others escaped a little and didn’t dare to face each other. Otherwise, why would Xue Wuhen and the other girls rush back to their rooms, and why would Xu You run off to do missions alone?

Therefore, they had already known about the existence of the crack in their subconscious, but they didn’t dare to face it.

But now, things were placed on the table, and he had no choice but to face them. Furthermore, Xu You knew that if he didn’t do anything, this crack would become deeper and deeper, and eventually become a crack. That way, he would never be able to repair it again.

Hence, Xu You suddenly stood up and walked towards Xue Wuhen, who was closest to him.
