Chapter 303: Gamble

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Swoosh!

—’Congratulations on leveling up to Level 32! You have received 5 Free Stat Points and 2 Fixed Stat Points.’

For two hours, Lin Jie and Wantless had been in the midst of mad demon farming. Lin Jie’s Bone Membrane Armor had immunity to Blood Toxin, coupled with Enchanted Scaly Armor, the Bloody Skeletons could only deal double-digits damage to him. After obtaining the Bloody Demonic Ring, Lin Jie could absorb back the entirety of the health points he had previously lost, allowing him to slay as many Demons as possible.

Wantless, on the other hand, was releasing Dark Venom with a sulk. When his damage output was unable to beat Lin Jie’s, despite him using up his bag full of Dark Powder, Wantless finally acknowledged the power of this Warrior that stood in front of him.

However, despite the presence of the two nature-defying experts, it still took them more than 2 hours to farm the thousands of Bloody Skeletons.

It was notable, though, to mention that because Wantless’ mission was to assassinate the 3 Raid Commanders, he did not obtain the Runestone of the Undead Language. All the Bloody Skeletons farmed were counted under Lin Jie, and the Runestone of the Undead Language count had reached 2408! This number was simply astounding. Even a guild that had been mingling in Midolhaar for some time could barely reach the last digit of Lin Jie’s count.

Wantless glanced at Lin Jie’s level-up glimmer before anxiously opening up the Rankings Board to ensure that he was still first. He then turned to Lin Jie and asked, “What’s your level now?”

“32, I am close to the first rank on the rankings board,” replied Lin Jie meaningfully.

“Close? Hmph, leveling up is harder than you think! You...” Wantless was about to safeguard his dignity as the number 1 ranked on the board, but he suddenly grew silent. Lin Jie’s Defense was insanely high, with a formidable AOE skill. He might really surpass him if he farmed continuously for several days.

“Oh? Shall we make a bet?”

“Bet? What do you want to bet?”

“It’s really easy! If I can surpass your grade within one week, then you will join my guild and aid me in one dungeon battle. As to which dungeon exactly, you won’t have to know,” said Lin Jie.

Wantless answered in a blink, “Deal! However, if you lose, you will be the cannon fodder and help me with the next map!”

“Deal!”

“Deal!”

The two looked at each other and smiled; confidence shone in both their eyes.

Wantless’ confidence originated from his powerful skill and uncomparable map developing skills. In his previous life, Ophadi had announced that there had been hundreds of training maps, with all of them being popular maps. Being the founder of the tabs, how could he not have kept a few authentic divine maps for himself? Moreover, the Wand that Wantless held, was [The Song of Opadi], just looking at the basic Stats, it might not be any different from Normal Dark Gold Shards. However, in Ophadi’s hands, they possessed a frightening 15% increase in all attributes.

Furthermore, Wantless’ Dark Venom, was the diving skill for map farming! Dark Venom’s damage might be average, however, it could be used continuously for up till a minute, with the coverage spanning far and wide. Just by purchasing some skills to reduce the cooldown period of previous equipment with gold coins, Dark Venom’s coverage could easily span across an average-sized cave.

Lin Jie’s confidence, on the other hand, came from—the Runestone of the Undead Language. The Runestone’s value had reached 2,408. With the value fully converted to experience points, it would probably be sufficient for him to reach Level 34! If he slew Blood Wizard Larek, it might even be possible for him to reach Level 35! Making such a bet, hehe, Wantless would be bound to break down when it was the mission deadline!

If he could get Wantless to join for the next Main Plot dungeon, it would make the process so much easier!

Lin Jie said, “The monsters are more or less gone, let’s prepare to head to the temple. There aren’t any stairs here, how are you planning to head up?”

Wantless glanced at the temple that was 200 yards above them and frowned. “It will be rather difficult as the temple is higher than I thought, and my Arcane Imitation will not provide me enough boost to reach. I heard that the most direct method to enter the temple was to kill the Potioneer, who is one of the three Raid Commanders. He is also the Boss that created the Flesh Beast. However, he can gather all 5 Flesh Beasts in his Enrage mode. Hence, in order to kill him, we would have to slay an additional 5 Flesh Beasts. This will take up too much time.”

Lin Jie pondered for a moment and said, “I have a solution, but I will need your cooperation...” In order to reach the highly situated temple, it was to either kill the Potioneer or... the other method would require some special techniques.

Upon listening to Lin Jie’s plan, Wantless had a tragic look on his face before finally agreeing to it.

“Okay, strip!”

Lin Jie and Wantless, two grown men, started stripping calmly while being in Blood Swamp, which was filled with skeletons. Of course, the Silver-Feathered Eagle was not kept in the bag as it had great use. While the two men were undressing, the Silver-Feathered Eagle surveilled the surroundings, preventing any assaults.

“You...” Lin Jie glanced at Wantless.

“Preference, preference.”

“You can’t be gay, right?”

“It is just a preference! I just fancy pink, pink represents purity, no?”

They glared at each other until Lin Jie could not bear to look anymore and turned his head, leaving a fuming Wantless clad in a pink shirt and pink tights.

Wantless was not gay. He just happened to have a genuine liking to such a ‘pure’ pink color. However, as a male, he definitely could not showcase such behavior. Hence, he had changed his inner clothing colors to pink, to display his pursuit for purity.

Of course, as a reborn person, Lin Jie knew of this. However, causing an expert like Ophadi to be awkward was also a pleasant thing to do.

“Get ready!” said Lin Jie seriously and activated the Feather Drop skill. Then, Broken Blade burst out with Blade Aura on the ground, using the resultant opposing force to boost him high up into the air. “Wantless!”

“Okay! Arcane Imitation, Tornado!”

Wantless scuttled and appeared in midair. He pointed his wand, and a powerful blast of wind exploded from it! His Arcane Imitation had not reached perfection. Thus, its low skill damage. However, the momentum and explosion that it emitted were still very powerful.

After activating the Feather Drop skill, Lin Jie’s body mass was many times lighter than Wantless, and he flew up in a Whoosh! Wantless’ speed of rising was comparatively slower, so he summoned an Arcane Chain that hooked on Lin Jie’s body!

Lin Jie was about 30 yards away from the temple! The Feather Drop skill diminished, and his body weight returned, which was about to cause him to start falling!

“Get up!”

Lin Jie grabbed onto the chain, and at the moment when Wantless was swinging up, he landed a punch onto Wantless’ buttocks with his increased Stats thanks to his equipment. Wantless let out a cry of pain and flew towards the temple and landed in a fluster.

Bam—

The chain was sliding frictionally against the temple’s ground, and Wantless grabbed onto it with a death hold. If he were to let go, Lin Jie would probably fall to his death! However, how much strength could a Mage have? Even when he was pulling with all his might, Lin Jie’s body was still gradually falling.

“Persevere, three more seconds!” Lin Jie looked at the cooldown time of the Feather Drop skill, while his body was gradually falling.

Mages’ strength stats were too trashy!

3, 2, 1!

Cooldown complete!

Feather Drop skill!

Lin Jie became light as a feather once again. Wantless let out a growl and pulled him up.

Dong—

Lin Jie landed face-first onto the ground and was in pain.

“That was a rather good plan you had.” Wantless praised while wearing his robe.

Lin Jie’s health bar refilled as he gulped the health potions. He looked intensely at the temple. Blood Wizard Larek, the highest Raid Commander of Blood Swamp, was inside!

“The Temple has a total of 12 rooms, and the Blood Wizard is in one of them,” said Wantless seriously. “We have a 12% chance of encountering the Blood Wizard in our first room. If we are unlucky, the room will spawn an army of 5 Boss-level Undead monsters. If we ignore them, the Blood Wizard will gain an additional Soul Link Skill and recover 2% of its health points every second when we are in battle.

“In other words, if we open a monster room, we will have to clear all of them.” Lin Jie waved and said, “Follow me, I know where the Blood Wizard is.”

Wantless was shocked. The Blood Wizard’s spawn location was random, how could he know?

However, after interacting for a period, he understood that this warrior was capable. Hence, he followed suit.

The Temple had a total of 12 rooms. Opening any wrong doors would double the time spent. If the Blood Wizard was in the 12th room, they would spend 12 times the duration to clear.

Lin Jie stood in front of a huge ancient door. The black gems encrusted in the door had carvings of Spirit Knights, Headless Corpses, and Hateful Undead. Just one glance was enough to send a shiver down the spine.

Lin Jie sniffed, and an intense wave of blood scent hit him. “Not this one, let’s go, the next one.”

Wantless was surprised. ‘Is it be possible to sniff out a Boss?’ However, he did not voice out his question in order to not appear stupid.

At the second door, the blood scent was twice as heavy!

Wantless nodded understandingly. ‘It should be this room! Such an intense blood scent it has to be this room.’

“Not this one, next.” Lin Jie continued.

Wantless. “...”

‘I have an image to uphold, I will not ask!’ Wantless thought to himself.

Lin Jie turned and asked, “Do you know why it wasn’t any of those rooms?”

Wantless felt weak in his knees as Lin Jie hit the bullseye with his question! He shook his head awkwardly while feeling helpless.

“It’s easy. It was stated in the Library’s <War Records> that Blood Wizard Larek was a Grand Mage and also the third City Leader of Sunshine City. This City Leader practiced the Wind Spells. Every morning, he would use the wind spells to clean up the mansion. Up to 80% of his time was spent immersed in the spring waters that were known as the ‘Fountain of Wind Spirit’.” Lin Jie spoke with composure.

Wantless’ eyes brightened up. “So once we feel the Wind Element, we will be able to locate the Blood Wizard?”

Lin Jie wiggled his fingers. “No, no, no, what I am saying is that... a City Leader that cleans his room daily must be a—clean freak!”

“Huh?” Wantless felt like he was cheated.

Lin Jie suddenly stopped in front of a door and sniffed, then he clapped and said, “It’s here! There isn’t any blood scent, open!”

Bang—

The door opened, and a bloody Lich appeared in their vision.

Blood Wizard • Larek!
