Chapter 620 - No Egg? Don’t Blame Gravity! (1/2)
”Is something wrong…”
Inside the Netherspirit's Claw's League channel, a feeble voice moaned. ”Big boss, we just let the Fallen Angels take over Black Flame Valley? Yesterday, I promised my girlfriend that I will let her ride on the Black Flame Steed in three days' time, boss.”
Just as he was done talking, someone refuted, ”Damn you John. I still remember that you had just gifted your girlfriend a Snow Martes a few days ago. I think it has not even hatched yet and now you want to gift her another Pet Egg?”
”Err… that one huh. No point bringing it up since it is in the past already…” John replied and sighed. ”You know what, the one I cherish the most right now is my beautiful dear Little Sisi. She is the real eastern beauty, noble and elegant. Only Black Flame Steed, the most noble beast, can compare to her…”
Before John could finish talking, people in the League channel started throwing up.
”Oh please, can you don't always use such sickening and disgusting words? For every girlfriend you had, you had always praised them highly as if there are no better woman in the world already.”
”Yeah…”
”Often times when we saw you shopping with your girlfriend, we always see you with a different girl. If not because the girl hugged you, we would have thought that you were shopping with your mother.”
”Hahaha!”
”You are so mean.”
The League channel was suddenly filled with laughter and John was angry for being teased. The laughing stopped when Netherclaw started to speak and switched the topic back to the Black Flame Valley.
”Fallen Angels' League Master came to visit us personally already. Do you think I can still reject him?”
”What's the problem of rejecting him? He is a League Master and so you are. Why do we have to listen to his requests?” John asked, disgruntled.
”Reject him?”
Netherclaw smiled mockingly. ”I hope I can too, but you all have failed to live up to my expectations, so what can I do?”
”Ah…”
The group of people did not understand what Netherclaw was trying to imply.
After a few seconds, Netherclaw huffed coldly. ”Still don't understand?”
”Hmph, the third phase had just ended and you all haven't even looked at your own results… There are fifty Field Commanders in our League and only thirty-four got into the top ten thousand list. Including me and Snowmelt, who are in the top hundred… plus the other seventeen comrades, we Netherspirit's Claw only have fifty-three people advancing to phase four.”
Netherclaw stopped for a while, and continued talking even more furiously.
”Fallen Angels still got the first ranking despite having to handle other things in phase three.”
”Except for this, Fallen Angels has eight people in the top one hundred list!”
”And! Fallen Angels has one hundred and sixty something people inside the top ten thousand list!”
Netherclaw was getting more furious as he talked. One could actually sense sadness within his anger. In the end…
”You guys always think you are very good right? What can you say this time? Let me tell you all, for those who didn't advance into the top ten thousand list, don't you dare brag again. And John… you bastard, your pace of changing girlfriend is even faster than your level grinding. I can't imagine you still request from me when you are not even in the top ten thousand list.”
”Uh…”
John was scolded and immediately shrank away.
”From now onwards, I hope that every one of us can speed up our leveling pace and hit Tier 6 as soon as possible… The Currency Exchange System is going to be released soon. By then, don't tell me Netherspirit's Claw can't even capture a city in the Underworld! It will be embarrassing if that happens!” Netherclaw unleashed his rage through that announcement.
”…”
”So… what about Black Flame Valley?”
After the League channel fell in silence for a while, John carefully whispered Netherclaw, ”When the City System is released, our League will need to invest a huge amount of money, right? After all, the building cost for a city is four hundred million gold coins… how do we get so many gold coins?”
”What are you trying to say?” Netherclaw asked back.
When John heard Netherclaw's question, he smirked and said, ”I heard that Fallen Angels farmed at least thirty Black Flame Pet Eggs yesterday. According to the current market price, they are worth at least five million gold coins…”
”Stupid, do you think Qin Ruo wants the Black Flame Valley just for money?” Netherclaw's reply startled John. John then replied after a moment, ”What is he looking for if not money?”
”If he wanted to earn money, he can just go to the Underworld and farm Liches. The drops from a single Lich are more worthy than a group of people farming in Black Flame Valley for a whole day.”
”Ah.”
John was in disbelief. ”Farming Liches? It is not that easy.” From John's perspective, the Lich was a rare monster in the Underworld. It was hard to find and even harder to kill.
Netherclaw moaned silently as he was lazy to explain to John. John was just a normal Tier 5 player, he couldn't understand how strong a Champion was and what the name Winter Demon implied.
Netherclaw then said, ”Regarding Black Flame Valley, Fallen Angels must have another objective. But since they have taken over it and I had already promised Qin Ruo, let's just not bring this up anymore. What's more… Qin Ruo doesn't even need to participate in the phase four competition. He is the only one in the top hundred list who had advanced to the very last stage in phase three. Since he is guarding Black Flame Valley personally now, I think let's just not mess with him at this moment.”
”Oh.”
One could tell Netherclaw's intolerance from his words. John could sense that and so, he did not continue asking anymore.
”…”
Black Flame Valley
Many Tier 5 players from Fallen Angels were able to control the Black Flame Steed farming points easily and at the same time, they could still watch the exciting phase four competition that was currently in progress.
Phase Four's small party competition…
