Chapter 38: Horrible

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After walking out of the forest, a group of people appeared in front of Lin Shuang. Hundreds of people marched into the forest valiantly. Their ID was Wolf Warrior XXX. It seemed that a guild had mobilized to kill monsters.

Walking in the middle of the crowd was a burly man with a curly beard. He looked like Zhang Fei! A huge axe rested on his shoulder, and his eyes were like copper bells.

A few words floated above his head: Wolf Warrior Blood Rain. There was also an eye-catching note: Guild Master of Wolf Warrior. He was the guild master of Wolf Warrior.

Lin Shuang looked at the vast crowd and suddenly had an idea. Didn’t he just happen to want to sell equipment? Such a large guild lacked equipment the most.

Although there were many people in this group, most of the players only had two or three pieces of equipment. Many of them were even wearing cloth clothes distributed for newbies. At a glance, it was really a tragic sight.

Lin Shuang walked straight towards Wolf Warrior Blood Rain. At this moment, this thick black man was talking loudly to a player beside him.

“Hello, I’m The Returnee. Can I talk to you?”

Lin Shuang greeted him with a smile.

Wolf Warrior Blood Rain turned around and sized up Lin Shuang. He saw that Lin Shuang’s equipment was quite extraordinary and his level was as high as Level 14. This was extremely rare in the entire Juxiang City! He hurriedly said respectfully, “Brother, you are…”

Lin Shuang smiled. “Who I am isn’t important, but I want to make a deal with you.”

“A deal?” Wolf Warrior Blood Rain asked curiously.

“That’s right. Does your esteemed guild plan to purchase equipment in bulk?” Lin Shuang asked him.

Wolf Warrior Blood Rain said, “Of course, but equipment is too difficult to drop now. Look at my brothers. Many of them are still naked, but I have no choice! If I could buy it, I would definitely be willing to buy it! Brother, you want to sell equipment? Let me see. I’ll buy as many as you have!” Wolf Warrior Blood Rain’s words were rather heroic.

“Really?” As Lin Shuang spoke, he took out a pile of equipment from his backpack. The pile was as tall as a small mountain. There were knives, spears, clubs, armor, leather armor, and magic robes.

Wolf Warrior Blood Rain’s eyes immediately widened like light bulbs, and his mouth couldn’t close.

“I have about 120 pieces of equipment here. All of them are above Green-grade. You can take all of them. This is not a small sum. You know, according to the current market, an ordinary Green equipment is worth at least a few thousand yuan. Not to mention that I have many top-grade Purple equipment here. It’s worth tens of thousands of yuan.”

Only then did Wolf Warrior Blood Rain recover from his shock. He sized Lin Shuang up again. After confirming that Lin Shuang was not an NPC selling equipment, he asked in a shocked tone, “Brother, you… are too exaggerated. Where did you get so much equipment? This is too ridiculous! The equipment of our entire guild combined is probably only comparable to the ones in your hands!”

“Hehe, I’m just a little lucky!” Lin Shuang smiled and waved his hand. He was not afraid that these people would revolt when they saw that he had so much equipment in his hands. With his current health and defense, these players in front of him could not break through his defense!

“Oh my god! Brother, your luck is extraordinary.” Wolf Warrior Blood Rain said enviously.

This is the benefit of a SSS-grade luck talent. Lin Shuang thought to himself and said, “How is it? Brother, do you want it?”

“This…” Wolf Warrior Blood Rain said hesitantly, “Brother, it’s not that I don’t want to buy it. It’s just that your quantity is too large. Let’s set a time and trade offline! The main reason is that even if our entire guild takes out our gold coins, we might not be able to afford your equipment!”

“Alright, that’s true!” Lin Shuang shook his head helplessly. He could only exchange contact details with Blood Rain. He walked into Juxiang City and went straight to the tavern.

Xu Ni was still sitting in his usual seat, holding a cup of inferior ale and drinking by himself. Lin Shuang walked over with the Blue Longan he had just ordered and sat opposite Xu Ni.

Xu Ni was drunk and his cheeks were red. He glanced at Lin Shuang and smiled. “How is it, adventurer? How’s the mission I gave you? Hmm… your strength has improved. You can go to the Valley of Gods now. I’m not in a hurry. It’s fine if you bring me the Fragment of God later.”

“Is this the Fragment of God you’re talking about?” Lin Shuang said as he placed the Fragment of God on the table.

As soon as Xu Ni saw the colorful fragment, his eyes widened. He looked at Lin Shuang in surprise. He picked up the fragment and looked at it repeatedly for a long time. “Oh my god! This is really the Fragment of God! Adventurer, you… you actually brought it back, and in such a short period of time…”

“It’s nothing. For us adventurers, completing the mission given by our employer in time is the greatest honor!” Lin Shuang said indifferently.

“Hmm…” Xu Ni nodded and said, “Adventurer, I have to admit that you did give me a surprise! To be honest, I asked you to bring back the Fragment of God just to make you retreat! But you really brought it back! I can also study this fragment. It seems to be hiding some secrets…”

Lin Shuang was moved. “Lord Xu Ni, how much do you know about this fragment? Can you tell me?”

Xu Ni glanced at Lin Shuang and resumed his previous cold tone. “This is the fragment left behind by the God Clan. The God Clan are said to be creatures from higher planes. They can’t land in our world directly. They have to build some kind of powerful Teleportation Gate. This fragment seems to be specially used to build Teleportation Gates. I still have to study the specifics.”

At this moment, after hearing what Xu Ni said, Lin Shuang’s heart trembled violently. Sure enough, this fragment was closely related to the God Clan’s invasion of Earth five years later!

It was actually a fragment used to build a Teleportation Gate. In other words, the God Clan were currently building a Teleportation Gate. Moreover, five years later, the construction was completed and the full invasion began.

Thinking about it, Lin Shuang felt cold sweat break out on his back. The God Clan were already moving quietly! No, he had to hurry up. He could not let the tragedy of his previous life repeat itself. At the very least, this mission had let him know that the God Clan had relied on the Teleportation Gate to descend to the mortal world.

Next, he focused on searching in this direction.

“I still have to study the secret of this fragment. Hmm… It’s quite interesting…” As Xu Ni spoke, he focused all his attention on the fragment.

“Lord Xu Ni, the City Lord’s request…” Lin Shuang reminded him.

Xu Ni glanced at Lin Shuang, sighed, and said, “Alright, I’ll go with you. I really don’t want to see that guy, but since I promised you, I can’t go back on my word.”
