Zhan Yue Novel - Chapter 440

Chapter 440- Goodnight Shen Mingxuan

Night, I battled the Goblin army.

…

I ground until 11 and the number of red helmets in my bag finally neared 10 thousand. During this period I didn’t know how many goblins I had killed. With a “shua”, a golden rain descended from above and I leveled to 105. Apart from that, the number of Fire Gold Stones in my bag doubled and I had 7000 sets now. This should be enough for Ah Fei to use for a period of time.

At that moment, Wet July’s voice spread into the guild chat, “Damn, they are such bullies!”

“What happened Ah Shui?” I asked.

“Brother Seven!”

He said solemnly, “A few brothers and I entered Corpse King Ridge to scout but before we headed in Breaking Dawn stopped us and said that we didn’t have the rights to enter. Damn, they really are bullies! Breaking Dawn only have a small area there and they dare to look down on other guilds. They really are shameless!”

I sucked in a deep breath, “What is the situation at Corpse King Ridge now?”

Moonlight Firefly added, “They are fighting for land. The main territories have been occupied by Elements, Limitless and Winds of Battle. The rest are taken by With You, Breaking Dawn, For Dreams and Lingyan Pavilion. Among them, Lingyan Pavilion and For Dreams has the smallest area. As for other guilds, they were chased out before they even entered. That map is really small and not many people can fit inside.”

I frowned, “Fanchen, should we make a move tomorrow?”

“I am okay.”

Mundane Slaughter smiled, “In truth, I have been waiting for you to say that.”

I nodded, “That’s good, prepare to send the order. We have to gather by 9am. Tomorrow is a weekend so don’t tell me you aren’t free. We will head to Corpse King Ridge, don’t let all the skills end up in their hands!”

“Ok!”

Mundane Slaughter nodded, “That is the way, if not Winter Sun City will think that we have no presence.”

“En.”

I smiled, “How are the materials I needed, I am heading back right away.”

“Anytime.”

“Okay.

”

…

Thus, I crushed the City Return Scroll and headed back to Winter Sun City. I passed all the Fire Gold Stones to Ah Fei and he helped me to inscribe my Seven Star Blade, Heartstealer, Ashen White Helmet and Returning Essence Chestplate. A few minutes later, their inscription stats appeared in front of me–

Seven Star Blade inscription stats: Attack +600

Heartstealer inscription stats: Attack +600

Ashen White Helmet inscription stats: Health +6000

Returning Essence Chestplate inscription stats: Health +6000

…

Level 7 inscriptions were just so violent and it increased Attack by 1200 and health by 12000. My basic health was 95000 now and I was so tanky that I felt a little embarrassed.

After which, I came to the storage and obtained a large amount of level 3 and 4 poison materials. I stored them all and will deal with them later. Time to submit the quest. If the quest had a time limit then that would be a problem since the ten thousand helmets in my bag might devalue.

Thus, I used the Black Castle City Return Scroll and teleported in front of Blood Pond Hall.

I headed towards the official.

“July Wildfire you are back!” His voice was low and old.

I nodded, “Sir, I brought back many helmets, I hope you are satisfied.”

I handed over all the quest items and his mouth was about to touch the floor. His voice trembled, “So… So many… Did you destroy their cave?”

“Nope, they asked for this.”

“Very good, as expected from July Wildfire who saved Black Castle, come. these are rewards and the honor that belongs to you. I hope you continue to work hard and serve Black Castle!”

“Ding!”

System notification: Congratulations for completing the quest Blood Goblin Helmet (S Tier), as you exceeded the requirements, rewards have increased by 1030.5%, obtained the following rewards: 123.66% of current level, Charm+10, contribution points +10.305 million, gold +10305!

A golden light descended from above and I leveled up once more, level 106!

Moreover, the moment I leveled, the ancient bracelet shone bright and it shook. It actually evolved too!

“Ding!”

System notification: Congratulations, your Ancient Bracelet (Legendary Grade) has evolved to Ancient Bracelet (Legacy Grade)

…

I opened the equipment column and as expected, the stats increased by a large amount–

Ancient Bracelet (Legacy Grade)

Strength: +302

Stamina: +300

…

Although there weren’t new effects but the stats had all strengthened and its strength was at least 25% more. Moreover, the Swallow Soul was still there so I was at ease.

This time, my health was over 100 thousand and I could compare to the top heavy armored players! Moreover, when I was in Darkness Shura state, I had 500 thousand health and I became the tankiest player in game. I probably had more health than the top Paladins. Unfortunately, health was limited and I couldn’t transform permanently. If not I even suspected whether or not I could test a whole guild on my own.

Everything was settled, I gained a huge amount today!

I sucked in a deep breath and returned to Winter Sun City to refine poisons. Along with my Poison Refining Technique level increasing, I could refine many poisons at once. The channel time was also greatly reduced. Instantly, Throat Sealers and Heartloss Powders fell into my bag like it was raining. Not far away, Mundane Slaughter hugged his arms and rested on the stone lion at the side of Great Sage Hall. He looked on in anticipation.

“Make a few more, we will head to Corpse King Ridge tomorrow so if we get more poisons, we can poison those annoying idiots!” He said. It was obvious that he was referring to the big guilds as annoying idiots.

I made poisons while smiling, “The activity tomorrow is uncertain so don’t have high hopes. We are a pure Assassin guild and it is tough for us in a real battle. Moreover, Corpse King Ridge is a war zone so even with poisons we don’t have too large of an advantage. let’s hope that we can gain some space for us.”

“En.”

He nodded, “I think so too but if we want to enter, we will definitely cause chaos. Let’s just hope those large sized guilds give us some face.”

“I hope so.”

…

Right at that moment, a message came from Shen Mingxuan who I just added, “With You has been in Corpse King Ridge for ten hours, why isn’t Assassin Alliance there. Are you giving up? What are you doing? Without level 100 skills, how can you fight others!”

“Why are you more anxious than me!” I was speechless.

She laughed, “I am just worried that you aren’t reliable and Mundane Slaughter and Moonlight Firefly will kick you out. I also heard that Assassin Alliance isn’t stable, some people say that Mundane Slaughter wants to pull you down. Is that real or not?”

I was speechless, “Where did you hear that from? Obviously, it is fake, we are as close as brothers so why would he target me?”

“Scoff!”

She scoffed, “Weren’t Shi Shangfei and you brothers but he still targetted you?”

“That was because he was too flirty…”

“Pui pui pui, shameless!”

She said, “Okay, I asked what I should ask, goodbye!”

“What do you mean, who asked you to ask that?”

“What do you think?”

She glanced and said, “Apart from some girl that might still think about you, who else would care about your Assassin Alliance? Hehehe…”

“You are talking about… Lin Xi?”

“En.”

After hearing her say that, my heart started beating quickly. I said carefully, “When will Lin Xi forgive me?”

“How would I know!”

She was a little speechless, “Okay let’s not talk about it, I am going offline soon, is Assassin Alliance really giving up on the level 100 skillbooks?”

“No, we are attacking in the morning, that is our secret, please don’t spread it!”

“Spread your head, Assassin Alliance has Wet July, Ten Month Birth etc, your orders aren’t a secret anymore!”

“That is true…”

“You really are bad at teaching!” She smiled, “Okay I shall go train, you can continue as your Guild Leader.”

“Goodnight Shen Mingxuan.”

“Goodnight Lu Li.”

…

I continued to refine potions.

Night.

“Di!”

A message came from Ah Fei, “Brother! Supper is about to arrive, let’s eat crayfish?”

“Ah?”
