Online Game: The King of the New World - Chapter 67
Chapter 67 Zhao Chen’s Lack of Confidence
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, In these three days, Between noon and evening, Xu You and his team had been staying in the ordinary Cave of East Sea. He played again and again until the number of times he had used up that day. The rest of the time, Xu You was practicing leveling with his online teammates. Although this kind of game was a bit monotonous, the five of them were extremely happy to see their equipment updated yesterday and replaced them today.
As a result, apart from exchanging all the equipment on Xu You’s body for green equipment, his level had also risen to LV17. Qing Wu and the others were also doing the same. However, their levels weren’t as high as Xu You’s, but they had also risen to LV16.
“No … I’m Tilluna … Queen, how could I … be defeated by … you guys!” Alright, it’s this line again. The author here strongly condemns the inertia of the game designers. As the final boss of the instance dungeon, Tilluna actually designed only one line for her. No wonder the Queen is so resentful.
Alright, cut the crap. Team Xu You killed Queen Tilluna very easily again. In the past three days, they had brushed the instance dungeon to the point of vomiting. The Queen was tired of listening to this line. However, every time the boss fell to the ground and dropped two pieces of green equipment, everyone would be very excited.
“Get out of the way, get out of the way, let me see!” Zhao Chen was a long-range output. After the battle, she was relatively far away from the boss. She was the most impatient and would rush to the front of the corpse to look at the equipment at the fastest speed every time she finished fighting the boss.
However, it wasn’t just her. Even after killing the Queen, Xu You would immediately approach the corpse and see what had fallen. He was very coveted for the necklace the orc warriors had won back then, but even though Zhao Xi, the Red Hand Party leader, hadn’t touched the necklace again.
This was the last time today, and also the ninth time in three days that an ordinary-grade East China Sea cave had been opened. However, after defeating Queen Tilluna eight times, she had never dropped the top-grade necklace in green-the Secondary Strength Necklace. This was Xu You’s last hope, because he had already decided to start trying to open a desolate and difficult-grade East China Sea cave tomorrow.
Right now, Xu You’s equipment was completely new. Apart from the accessories, this was also the reason why they were so interested in the ordinary-grade East China Sea Caves. It was up to Zhao Xi’s face to determine whose equipment the last two items were and whether they were still useful or not.
“Ah! That’s great, one of them is a ring!” Zhao Chen pushed aside Xu You, who was also excited, and saw a green ring lying on the ground.
“What are you so excited about? What if that’s not a ring you can use?” Xu You said decisively. Although he, Qingwu, and Buqu both had a blue ring, each player could wear two rings. Therefore, the three of them had their own needs. As a result, everyone looked at Zhao Xi and asked Zhao Xi to look at her stats. Then, they would send out the ring. At that time, they would know whose ring it belonged to.
Zhao Xi was also very excited. This was the second time she had dropped the orc warrior’s necklace when she was captain. The first time was the orc warrior’s necklace, but now it was the second time. Whose ring would it be? It depended on her hand again. Therefore, being captain not only needed to have a good face, but also a good hand.
Zhao Xi took a deep breath before picking up the equipment. However, when she saw the attributes of the ring, her delicate little face became excited. However, she was still excited. She did not forget to send out the information about the ring for everyone to share.
Enamel Ring (Excellent): Ring, Endurance +3, Intelligence +3, Spirit +3, Pickup Binding, Equipment Requirement: LV16.
“Ah!!! Great, little sister, I love you so much.” Zhao Chen immediately cheered.
“It’s actually a magic ring, alas.” The orc warrior shook his head. Actually, even if he took out a Physics Ring, he would not compete with Xu You. After all, he had an incomparably precious necklace.
“How can this be?” This was Qingwu’s voice filled with disappointment.
“Why …” In the end, it was Xu You. He was the most disappointed because the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. He had originally hoped to lose a necklace, but if it was his ring, then it would be fine. As long as it was his, the problem was not.
“Captain, don’t be greedy. Your weapon has already envied us to death!” Seeing Xu You’s appearance, Zhao Chen said, “Attack.” In fact, the effect was to comfort him.
“As an outstanding game player, my thirst for equipment is endless!” .
“I don’t care if you have any limits. Go and make way for a place. I want to roll dice with Little Xi and decide on the ownership of the ring!” Zhao Chen pushed Xu You to the side and started to roll dice with his sister. This kind of game system was set up to be boring and could be used for entertainment. In case of a dispute, it could solve the problem. However, determining the ownership of the equipment was the most important role of the dice. As long as the number of dice points was large, the equipment would belong to whoever rolled the dice.
On the other hand, Xu You and Unyielding believed that this method was unscientific. It was entirely based on character. Therefore, when they had a dispute over equipment, they would use stone scissors and cloth to decide.
However, this time, it was none of Xu You’s business with the orc warriors. Zhao Chen and Zhao Xi gathered together and discussed for a while before they started to roll the dice. (Please don’t ask me where the dice came from. Anyway, it was given by the system!) The dice was six-sided like the real dice, but the six-sided numbers were randomly chosen from 1 to 100. This was also what Xu You thought was unscientific. However, Ke was unscientific. The two sisters had already decided on the ownership of the ring.
Zhao Chen was 78, and Zhao Xi was 79. Zhao Xi had a lot of points and successfully won the green ring. This made Xu You gloat incomparably. However, Zhao Chen did not show a look of disappointment. In any case, the two sisters were the same.
After Zhao Xi got the ring, she couldn’t wait to put it on. As a result, Zhao Xi’s healing had already reached 400 HP. Of course, it wasn’t just the ring, but the entire set of green equipment.
Of course, Xu You and the others had over 400 HP. Among them, Xu You had 490 HP, Qing Wu had 440 HP, and the unyielding warriors had 700 HP as tanks. At the very least, they were Zhao Chen, with only 350 HP.
Apart from HP, other attributes had also increased dramatically, but why did he take out HP alone? It was precisely because he wanted to open up the Dilemma Grade East China Sea Cave that his HP was a hard target. Without a certain HP, he might not even be able to withstand a single Boss skill. Then, he would forget about other things.
Xu You saw that everyone’s mood had almost adjusted. He was prepared to summarize some of the experiences and lessons he had learned in the past few days in fighting against ordinary-grade East China Sea caves, As the leader of the team, this was something he had to do. He coughed dryly a few times and attracted the attention of his teammates before saying, “Everyone, in these past few days, we have been carrying out the fearless spirit of not fearing hardship or fatigue. Unity is strength, and we are honest in front of and behind.”
“Stop! Stop! Stop! What are you talking about? Can you get straight to the point?” Zhao Chen had only listened for a while before he could not continue listening. This was not the final speech at the XX Conference.
Xu You was interrupted by Zhao Chen and forgot about the long-prepared summary. He couldn’t help but curse in his heart. It was rare for him to be able to speak as a “leader”. Zhao Chen, what are you doing? Do you still not give face to the leader? Is the summing-up still going on? Is everyone still working? Is the unit still creating excellence? Is society still progressing? Is the country rich or not …
“Hehe, Brother Wuyou, you look like an angry daughter-in-law right now. Alright, if you have something to say, just say it.” Qingwu couldn’t help but laugh when he saw Xu You’s embarrassed and aggrieved expression.
Hearing this, Xu You glared at the troublemaker Zhao Chen fiercely, causing the latter’s eyes to turn pale. He then said, “We’ve been brushing the instance dungeon non-stop these past few days. The effect is still very good, but now our equipment can hardly be upgraded by attacking an ordinary-grade East China Sea cave. I think it’s time for us to increase the difficulty!”
“Are you saying that we are going to the East China Sea Cave, which is at the level of difficulty in opening up the wilderness?” Qing Wu first guessed what Xu You was thinking.
“Yes! I’ve decided that from tomorrow onwards, I won’t fight an ordinary level of difficulty. Instead, I’ll fight a Donghai Cave at the difficulty level!” Xu You nodded.
“Can we … do it?” Zhao Chen was a little scared when he heard this, and Zhao Xi looked at Xu You timidly.
“Why not? I said you don’t have confidence in yourself, in us?” Xu You looked at Zhao Chen and said.
Zhao Chen couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw Xu You looking at her with a gaze filled with hatred for steel. He whispered, “I’m just asking. It’s not like I don’t have confidence.”
“Regardless of whether you have confidence or not, we are going to open up the Hard-level Cave of East Sea tomorrow. Didn’t you hear the announcement yesterday? The last Hard-level instance dungeon, the Barren Mine, has been cleared by the players. It’s time for us to go fight.” Xu You said resolutely.
“Why must we follow those experts? Can’t we play with ours?” Zhao Chen whispered.
“I’m too lazy to talk nonsense with you. It’s good to remember to go online on time tomorrow. We won’t start leveling tonight. Everyone, rest well and prepare for tomorrow’s opening up!” Xu You said unhappily.
“But I” Zhao Chen still wanted to say something, but Xu You’s figure gradually faded away and disappeared. He dared to go offline.
“Alright, Sister Chen, it’s not bad to experience the difficulty level East Sea Cave. Moreover, Brother Wuyou said that there are good equipment there, and his Holy Light Impact Set has also fallen in the difficulty level East Sea Cave!” Qing Wu could not help but console Zhao Chen when she saw his somewhat aggrieved expression.
“That’s right, that’s right. I’ve been wanting to fight for a long time now!” The orc warrior said cheerfully and went offline to rest.
“That’s what I said, but I’m a little scared.” Zhao Chen’s voice was so low that he couldn’t hear it anymore.
“It doesn’t matter. You have to have confidence in yourself!” Qingwu encouraged.
“Alright, I will work hard.” Qingwu had already comforted her, and Zhao Chen could only say that.
Seeing this, Qingwu also went offline, leaving only Zhao Chen and Zhao Xi behind.
“Little Xi, do you have confidence in tomorrow’s Kaihuang?” Zhao Chen couldn’t help but ask his sister. She felt that Zhao Xi could understand her feelings.
“I don’t know. I haven’t fought yet, but Brother Wuyou and the others are so powerful. There shouldn’t be a problem.” Zhao Xi thought for a while before replying.
“Then do you think you can do well?” Zhao Chen asked again.
“I’m a little scared, but Big Sister Wu and Big Brother Wuyou believe me so much. I will do well!” Zhao Xi encouraged herself. Her role was too important, but after a few days of training, her treatment, consciousness, and movement were already very skilled. She felt that she could do a good job.
Moreover, it doesn’t matter if she doesn’t do it well. Just do your best. Don’t put too much pressure on yourself, because that will only make things worse. She is their teammate, how can she disappoint them? She still clearly remembered what Big Brother Wuyou had told her that day.
‘”But, but I’m afraid” Zhao Chen muttered. A trace of timidity appeared on his face. She heard that difficulty-level instance dungeons were no longer as easy to fight as ordinary-level ones. That was the stage for experts. How could a player like her, who was halfway home, do a good job?
“Why are you afraid? Didn’t sister do well before?” Zhao Xi was puzzled.
“No! Previously, you didn’t know … I was just afraid that if I didn’t do well, I would implicate you, implicate everyone!” Zhao Chen suddenly said excitedly. Then, he covered his face with both hands, preventing his sister from seeing his weak expression.
Actually, her heart wasn’t as strong as it seemed.
