Chapter 435: Hero
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Li Yi did not head straight back to the ice cave. Now that Yuria was gone, the danger to Akna has passed. Moreover, the ice cave did not spawn monsters so there was no need to keep watch at all times.
Li Yi took a glance around, searching for a place with water. He wanted to see if Silly Swan was nearby.
Behind the ice cave was a huge frozen lake. Li Yi saw a woman in black robes fishing by the shore.
“Oh right, what’s your name?”
Li Yi sent a message to Silly Swan.
After a brief moment, Silly Swan replied, “Is it necessary? I really don’t wanna say.”
“Why? Are you afraid that I might turn out to be your nemesis?”
“No, you just seem nice, how could you be my nemesis? It’s, it’s really not my nature to reveal my name to strangers.”
“I can’t just call you hey, right?”
“Whatever suits you. Hehe, come to think of it, I don’t think I know your name.”
“My name is Da... Darth Fondler,” Li Yi was about to say Dark Wing but had a quick change of heart. It would be more appropriate to use a fake name.
“Darth Fondler? That’s an indecent name...”
“Names are nothing. It’s a game, I just came up with what sprung to mind.”
“Okay...”
Li Yi was secretly observing Silly Swan while conversing with her. She was angling at a fantastic pace. She only threw her hook in and it has not been a few seconds before she pulled it back up, rarely making any wrong moves.
Undoubtedly, a Grandmaster-level Fishing Master.
Since he could not get her name, Li Yi felt dejected. He scratched his head to try and wrap his head around the situation. Finally, he came up with an idea.
He took out the Cursing Sect Outfit to put on. Once he turned into a Cursing Disciple, he grabbed a Purple Quality Fishing Rod and sluggishly walked towards Silly Swan.
He could use Trickery Ring to transform but the camp emblem would still be visible on his head. The camp emblem would not be shown when turned into a Cursing Disciple because he was now a monster. Li Yi asked, “Are there any fishes here?”
Silly Swan was focused on fishing when she heard him. She turned her head and screamed before diving into the water...
Li Yi was dumbfounded.
Was he that scary-looking?
Silly Swan had sunk to the bottom. The water temperature in the North Pole was extremely low. She would probably freeze to death soon.
“Lil’ Mermaid, go pull her up.”
Li Yi had summoned Mermaid Princess to rescue Silly Swan.
The cold may affect players but to a legendary creature like Mermaid Princess, it was nothing.
Mermaid Princess dived down the lake and quickly dragged Silly Swan out.
Silly Swan had only 213 HP left displayed on her head. If Mermaid Princess were slower by a split second, she would have been dead.
“Who, who are you?” Silly Swan’s voice trembled. She did not seem comfortable speaking to strangers, even her tone has changed.
Li Yi bowed, “I’m a Great Wizard of the Cursing Sect, U... Ulumuchi.”
“You’re not a player?”
“What’s a player?” Li Yi’s acting skill was quite polished.
“You’re not going to attack me, right?” Silly Swan was worried as she looked at the name displayed on Li Yi’s head. It was Cursing Sect High-ranking Clergy in dark red.
“I, Ulumuchi am in favor of peace and nature. I don’t attack anyone.”
Silly Swan patted her chest in relief, “That’s good, that’s good. The NPCs in this game are too human-like. I’m so stupid to keep messing this up.”
“Young lady, are there fishes here? I’m here to fish,” Li Yi waved the rod in his hand.
“Of course, there’s plenty.”
“Thank you,”
Li Yi walked forward and started to make fishing motions.
Silly Swan’s dainty and inviting body was on full display. Li Yi felt that she looked familiar but could not put his finger on it.
Silly Swan was captivated by Mermaid Princess, “Is this your mount? She’s so beautiful...”
“Yes, Lil’ Mermaid, sing us a song.”
If you got it, flaunt it. Li Yi was no different. Moreover, his Mermaid Princess mount was rarely shown to anyone. How could he let slip an opportunity to flaunt?
“Lalala...”
Mermaid Princess gently hummed a song. The tune was so melodious, it enchanted Silly Swan.
“She’ll be cold wearing so little.”
Silly Swan was concerned seeing Mermaid Princess in only a bra and mini skirt. She took out a garment from her backpack and gave it to Mermaid Princess.
Mermaid Princess smiled, “Thank you, kind soul.”
“Oh my, she she she...” Silly Swan was startled again. If it were not for Li Yi to holding onto her, she would have fallen into the lake again.
Silly Swan has not recovered from the shock as she mumbled to herself, “High IQ, even mounts have high IQ...”
Li Yi’s had another urge to flaunt, “Lil’ Mermaid, sing a better song, don’t just go lalala. It’s boring.”
“Mm mm... Ah ah mm mm... ah ah... mm mm... ah ah...”
Mermaid Princess began her singing again with a melodious tune. There were only two sounds, mm and ah. These two sounds combined sounded pretty much like the moans and groans of a pleasured woman. It did not leave much to the imagination.
Silly Swan was uncomfortable listening to it, not knowing where to place her hands. Li Yi could tell that she was feeling awkward, hence he ordered Mermaid Princess to stop. He chided, “I told you to sing a better song, why are you singing this?” Mermaid Princess’ answer immediately ruined the image Li Yi just established.
“Because it’s your favorite song.”
Silly Swan unconsciously moved away from Li Yi, hearing these words.
Li Yi was not fishing as fast as Silly Swan but the rod he has was a good one. Apart from the slower rate, the fishes he reeled in were about the same quality as Silly Swan’s.
Silly Swan took out her rod to fish and after a while, she asked, “Mr. Ulumuchi, what is your class?”
“I am a Summoner.”
“Then you must be good?”
Li Yi was proud, “No one in this world is able to defeat me.”
Silly Swan was excited, “Can you teach me your skill?”
Li Yi shook his head, “I would if you’re a Summoner, but you’re a Curse Priest.”
Silly Swan sighed, “Akna told me the same.”
“Why must you learn skills?”
“I’m seeking vengeance.”
Li Yi was filled with glee internally, “Can you tell me what happened? Perhaps... I can help you.”
Li Yi lured her in bit by bit, getting closer. “My nemesis is powerful, despicable, treacherous, vulgar, and vile, he killed so many times for no reason...” Silly Swan was hot with emotion, clenching her fists tight.
“What’s the name of your nemesis?”
“He’s called...”
Silly Swan shook her head and did not continue her sentence.
F*ck, Li Yi cursed within. Another dead end...
Silly Swan quivered, “I will not mention his name until I kill him. I’m not afraid of him, I really am not, definitely not, and will never be.”
Li Yi was speechless. If this was not fear, then terror did not exist in the world.
Silly Swan looked at the time and waved at Li Yi, “It’s getting late, I’m going offline now. Mr. Ulumuchi, goodbye.”
As Silly Swan’s figure gradually disappeared, Li Yi grew unhappy.
He played pretend for most of the day yet ended up without a clue...
Pretty Good Mood’s messages would come every once in a while. Li Yi was happy with the Light Conference dungeon progressing on smoothly.
Pretty Good Mood and his party were moving on swiftly due to two factors. One, they were at a high level, and their room for error has increased. If someone were to make a mistake, they would not be annihilated completely. Two, the strategy written by Li Yi was far beyond the standards of this stage. If they still failed at this dungeon, Li Yi’s rebirth was in vain.
These two factors added together helped Pretty Good Mood and his party to progress fairly quickly.
The hardest part about Light Conference dungeon was the last stage when the bosses’ HP dropped to 2% as all five of them would take turns to go berserk with Invincibility. It was the segment most prone to TPK and passing this segment would require endless attempts and coordination.
The reason why Li Yi had them level up for a month was because of this segment. He was different from anyone else. Others may think the last 2% segment was the hardest, but to him, as long as they could pull through to that stage, everything else would easily come into place.
Li Yi fished at the frozen lake for a bit but found it boring. He had Mermaid Princess dive down to search for treasures. In the end, only materials were found, not a single good item in sight.
He strolled back to Tuhrland, looking to have a drink with Ardahan.
The Tuhrs and giant mammothmen waged war almost daily. When Li Yi arrived at the clan, Ardahan’s arm was in a sling. He was covered with wounds.
Fortunately, this old man was not dead or else the Affinity between Li Yi and him would be reset.
Ardahan was having a despondent moment, “Buddy, it’d be great if you returned earlier.”
Today, the Tuhrs fought a losing battle, suffering great loss.
“The giant mammothmen invited an Aerial War God and came in strong on us, sigh.”
After listening to Ardahan’s woes, Li Yi came to a realization.
Aerial War God? It must be that Up Down Up Down Punch, right?
Well, the war between the two parties usually end up a tie but if a player participated, the situation would change.
It was then when a Tuhr scurried in, “Clan Leader, the giant mammothmen broke through the trap defense in front of the village.”
What? Are they planning to butcher the village?” Ardahan was shocked. He grabbed his bow and ran out without another word to Li Yi.
Outside Tuhr Village, Up Down Up Down Punch was riding a giant mammoth elephant charging towards the village.
Li Yi too joined in. He was currently a Tuhr, a Worshipped hero. If he were to look on while sitting on his backside, his Tuhrland Reputation Value would definitely drop.
Li Yi saw Up Down Up Down Punch from a distance but he did not prepare to meet the battle head-on. He released Violent Bear King and stood by to watch everything unfold.
“Roar roar.”
Violent Bear King let out two roars, rousing the dulled spirits of the Tuhrs.
“Bear king, bear king!”
The Tuhrs were overflowing with enthusiasm, causing their HP and ATK to skyrocket. It seemed to have a better effect than ecstasy as each one of them selflessly put their lives on the line and charged toward the giant mammothmen army...
