Chapter 224 Log Off

“Haha! Silver Dagger! Great!”

While she was searching for the spoils of war, Si Yejing suddenly burst out laughing without any gentleness or restraint that a beautiful campus belle should have.

Because it was such a delightful harvest for her. A level-20 silver dagger happened to be what she needed, so she immediately took it with excitement and showed the property to Xiao Feng proudly.

Xiao Feng just ignored her. How dare she flaunt a silver weapon in front of him? After all, he had gained an artifact weapon, though the basic property indicator of the artifact was lower than that of her silver weapon.

After 10 minutes, the piled-up bones and equipment were all gone after the page was refreshed.

Xiao Feng withdrew his eyes regretfully. There were too many creeps that the dropped equipment was repeated. They couldn’t clean up the whole battlefield in time. At least a few pieces of silver equipment were left out.

However, they did harvest a lot. They had obtained four silver equipment, 19 rare equipment, including Si Yejing’s silver dagger. In terms of value, these spoils of war were worth at least thousands of golden coins, which equaled to more than 100,000 dollars in real world. It was more than what an ordinary player could earn for one year.

“Go! Let’s go on!”

Si Yejing couldn’t wait to say with glittering eyes. While seeing her experience points increased by a lot and getting a fabulous weapon, she was even more determined to stay with Xiao Feng.

It was such a good deal! Only by pulling some creeps, she could have her experience bar increased by 20% to 30% and acquire numerous golden coins and equipment. It was a dream life!

Xiao Feng didn’t bother talking with her. Obviously, he couldn’t get rid of her, so he had to head towards the grand underground grave with her.

Si Yejing had been to the grand underground grave with Xiao Feng before so she was familiar with the place. Through their cooperation, the efficiency of pulling creeps and wiping creeps was increased, mainly because Si Yejing was hardworking. It seemed that she was eager to show her value so Xiao Feng felt rather at ease.

“Hey! Congratulations! You have been upgraded to Level 21 and gained one unallocated attribute point.

With a sound effect, a beam of white light was cast on Xiao Feng, which indicated that Xiao Feng’s experience bar of Level 20 had been full and he was finally upgraded to Level 21.

“Let’s call it a day.”

Xiao Feng added the attribute point to the spirit and said after checking the time.

It was almost time for breakfast. Yesterday, he didn’t make it to breakfast. If he didn’t log off now, Ling might have an issue with him.

The creeps on the first floor of the underground palace were not all cleaned up by Xiao Feng, some of which were still hiding in the corner, let alone going onto the second floor. Yet, Si Yejing was still quite satisfied, because she had increased her experience points by a half for teaming up with Xiao Feng. Now she had surpassed Liu Qiangwei and become the new Top 2 on the Leaderboard.

Moreover, she found a piece of golden equipment and put it into her bag in secret without even being noticed by Xiao Feng, which made her so rejoiced. The golden equipment was the leather of Level 30, which was valuable whether she kept it for her own use or just sold it.

“Okay.”

Hearing what Xiao Feng said, Si Yejing also stopped rummaging among the equipment piles and said with a nod of agreement. After all, the equipment of the level above silver was taken by her. She obtained the equipment selectively based on the radiating light. Otherwise, the piled-up equipment was just too much for her to get.

After sorting out his bag, Xiao Feng chose the original underground route rather than going back home, because he still planned to gain levels by coming to the underground palace next time when he logged on.

Having retreated from the game world and taken off his game helmet, he opened his eyes. He was in his own bedroom again. Xiao Feng looked around and found no trace of Ling sneaking onto his bed. It seemed that she finally grew up.

However, just when this thought was conceived, he heard someone turn the doorknob from the door and immediately looked to the direction.

He happened to see a pair of bright and beautiful blue eyes through the door slot. The owner of the blue eyes obviously found that Xiao Feng had got up so she instantly appeared flurried. With the sound of bang, she slammed the door when it was slightly opened. Then the sound of hurried footsteps came from the corridor. She had fled away.

It was Ling for sure.

Xiao Feng shook his head. Then he got up and washed himself. Today, he didn’t log off at the meal time. He didn’t expect to see Ling try to sneak into his room by chance.

Faced with Ling’s obsession, Xiao Feng didn’t know whether it was good or not.

As he had sworn to take care of Ling, Xiao Feng surely hoped that she could be attached to him so that their relationship would be harmonious enough.

However, on the other hand, Xiao Feng was the one responsible for the death of Ling’s father, Xia Guangwei. Every time he thought of this, Xiao Feng couldn’t help clenching his fists with a deep sense of guilt and self-accusation.

Xia Guangwei was not the one behind the scheme, which Xiao Feng had known since the day when he hounded Xia Guangwei to death. However, Xiao Feng’s interrogating manner was rather ruthless, which could be proven by the way he treated the private detective sent by Liu Qiangwei on the day or the way he treated Liu Qiangwei.

He was merciless, indifferent and brutal. So was Xia Guangwei. Otherwise, he wouldn’t choose to leap to his own death under the compulsion of Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng was silent. He washed his face with the cold water and rubbed his face forcibly before he left his room.

He felt so sorry and guilty for Ling. No matter how Ling felt for him, emotionally attached, disliking or repelling, he would look after Ling as always.

He would do that at all cost! Even his life!

“Master, the porridge is well served for you.”

Downstairs, Ning Keke who was still wearing the black and white maiden suit had placed the breakfast on the table. After she saw Xiao Feng, she said to him with her rosy cheeks and didn’t dare to look into his eyes.

Ling was sitting on the chair and swaying her feet idly. She was not tall enough to reach the ground.

She seemed to have forgotten the embarrassment she felt for being found to sneak into Xiao Feng’s room. She was looking over Xiao Feng and Ning Keke with sharp eyes and seemed to find something.

Xiao Feng just ignored her and sat down on the chair to have breakfast. Meanwhile, he started to ponder over what he was going to do after logging on later. Master Di Wuya was supposed to finish his ring of immortal equipment within today. It was time that he should go to fetch it.

Besides, Xiao Feng thought of one thing. Master Di Wuya was hailed as the strongest blacksmith in the empire. Maybe he could ask this man to help repair the damaged Sage Staff. Now the Sage Staff was an artifact indeed, but its basic property was of too low level. It was dissatisfactory for Xiao Feng. If it could be well repaired, it would be greatly enhanced then.

At the same time, Xiao Feng wondered that it was time for him to do the main task. He had left out the progress of many main tasks for the sake of gaining levels before. On second thought, the Dark Legion would take some action now. After he passed the first floor and second floor of the underground palace, and further gained an advantage over the other players on the Leaderboard in terms of level, he should proceed with the main tasks. After all, these were more important.

“Em, Brother Xiao, you are awake.”

Before Xiao Feng finished his slice of bread, Qian Duoduo also got downstairs in pajama while yawning. Her pajama and hair were both messy, which showed that she didn’t sleep well last night.

However, Xiao Feng guessed that it was probably related with the damaged Sage Staff, so he just left her alone. After checking the calendar, he noticed that today was the date when the owner of the Treasure Pavilion held the auction on a weekly basis. Apparently, Qian Duoduo had spent the whole night for promotion in order to auction the damaged Sage Staff in the event.

It was conceivable that the sensation of auctioning an artifact must be greater than that of auctioning the token of a guild at the first auction event of the Treasure Pavilion.

This was an artifact, not a random weapon! The guild token could drop by killing the level-30 ordinary wild boss while the artifact could only drop by slaying the faerie-level boss. Undoubtedly, the artifact was rather rare and it was much harder to kill a faerie-level boss than ordinary bosses. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be only three artifacts in the server and all of them were owned by Xiao Feng.

After the players were upgraded to certain levels, the drop of the guild tokens was no longer rarely seen. Basically, the guild tokens dropped every day. Hence, the top 10 guilds on the guild list of the various theaters each had a name, which indicated that there had been a lot of successfully established guilds by far.

Yet, on the Leaderboard of the server, only Xiao Feng had the artifact, so the value gap between the artifact and the guild token was quite prominent.

Even though the damaged Sage Staff was not as powerful as other equipment of the same level due to its property, it was categorized as an artifact in terms of type. Just because of its type of an artifact, plenty of players would scramble for it so hard.

The advertising effect of the artifact on the Leaderboard was even greater. It would definitely gain tremendous fame for the owner himself, the guild or affiliation!

Therefore, it was predictable that the occasion of this auction would absolutely exceed that of the first auction in the Treasure Pavilion. Without doubt, auctioning an artifact would create a great sensation in the whole Huaxia District, or even the whole server. By then the players of various theaters would show concern for this unprecedented auction!

Meanwhile, it would win much more fame for the Treasure Pavilion. After this auction, the Treasure Pavilion would become even more famous, which explained why Xiao Feng didn’t reject Qian Duoduo’s request. He wanted to give a chance for the Treasure Pavilion to shoot to fame again.
