Chapter 734 – Holy Dragon Cauldron (1/2)
Chapter 734 - Holy Dragon Cauldron
This time everyone was pressing their luck. We had logged on at midnight and it was already noon of the second time, yet nobody had logged off. It was a though everyone had a fire in their hearts and didn’t feel tired at all. It was probably because they were playing in another country. Besides, the resources in the Stone Forest map were extremely fertile. Besides the Purple Spirit Grass and Stone monsters, there were actually Level 1 and Level 12 mine deposits that spawned all across here. We picked some while we were there. Old K and the others all had skills in mining. Just during this map, they were able to level up their mining to Level 12. The country battles were near at hand, and in our eyes picking everything wasn’t plundering their resources, rather just us gaining an advantage by striking first. These mines will eventually become powerful toolsin the chinese server.
Moon City’s ambition was clear. Smile had lead his team of players to “step” into Tian Ling City. While they may have said that Moon City wasn’t there to attack Tian Ling City, I’m afraid that even Smile and Hand of Waterloo don’t believe in those words. Seeing as we'll end up fighting each other anyway, then there's no need to pretend. Attack first or else be attacked!
……
In the middle of our journey, everyone logged off to eat some food, go to the bathroom and what not. It was three in the afternoon. We logged back into the game and the twenty horsemen of Zhan Long contained to clear the Stone Forest map. It was large enough for several thousand players to farm for over 24 hours. Unfortunately for us, we brought too few people with us and can't clear the map by ourselves. Even though each one of them can hold off ten at once, there were still only forty of us. And so, we picked out the more dense areas with monsters, mine deposits and herbs and didn't step foot on any of the more open spaces. Matches on the other hand flapped her wings and flew into the forest to look for more stone mounts. Whatever we can bring with us, we have to do what we can to make sure it doesn't fall into the hands of the Moon City players. I was especially cautious about the stats that the stone mounts presented. Matcha was like me and understood what I was thinking. And so, she spent her focus on finding those mounts.
Still, we had too few people and there was no way that we could hear the entire map. As soon as one of Moon City’s main guilds find this Stone Forest Map, then the Stone Mounts were as good as gone.
We continued like this all the way until five in the afternoon. Finally, we had cleared out most of the Stone Forest map and we had basically completed our map of Moon City. If we launched an attack from Tian Ling City, then even though we don’t know much about the map on the way here, we’ll know everything about the enemy’s territory. At least we’ll be very familiar and won’t be easily ambushed.
Of course, while a man can plan, the real job is up to fate. When the battle actually breaks out, who knows what will happen?
……
“Bother Xiao Yao, careful!”
Qing Qian flapped her wings and flew into the sky with her dagger raised. She climbed onto a tree that was dozens of meters tall and said, “The players from Breezy Plains have finally come. Its [Dawn]. Hand of Waterloo is personally leading the army. It looks.. It looks like there are at least a thousand horsemen. I saw it on the Moon City Forums. [Zhan Long], [Legend], and [Hero’s Mound] have all caught their attention. [Dawn] isn’t the only guild, even the [Thunder God] guild is starting to move. The [Thunder God] guildmaster Smile is leading around three thousand players into Moon Valley to chase after Fang Ge Que and Enchanted Painting. Hand of Waterloo is leading a thousand horsemen to scout out Stone Forest. Behind him are another five thousand. This time, Hand of Waterloo is going all out.”
I pondered for a moment and looked at everyone before saying, “Brothers, are you tired now? If you are, how about we just go back to our city.”
Li Mu raised his sword and shook his head, “Not at all! This is a rare opportunity. If we don’t spend three days and three nights here, then how could we say to leave? Haha, what does everyone else think?”
Dancing Forest raised her bow and smiled, “That does sound interesting. Seeing as we spent seven to eight hours to get here, then we shouldn’t go back so easily…. Moon Valley and Stone Forest have such vast maps, we won’t necessarily run into their main forces. Let’s continue walking around and see what other goodies we can get?”
I nodded, “Then how about this, we’ll continue grinding levels until ten at night. After that, everyone log off to take a break and eat some dinner. Then, get some rest. Everyone log on tomorrow at ten in the morning and we’ll continue to draft a map of Moon City.”
Everyone nodded. Old K raised his battle axe and smiled, “Then where do we go now? How about we set up an ambush here and give our French friends a little surprise?”
I gaped at him, “You want forty people to ambush a thousand man cavalry?”
Wan Er grinned, “You’re thinking too much. Let’s go and head south of the Stone Forest. Let’s go and see what map is over there! Li Xiao Yao’s alchemy and medicine skills have almost reached Level 13. If we can gather some more of that Purple Spirit Grass and rush it to Level 13, then we’ll get OP medicines! This is a great opportunity, we can’t lose out on it.”
“Yes!”
……
We continued forward. On the way, our players attacked every LV 1 Stone Tiger so that we could seal it. We kept this up until we finished all 200+ of our pet seal stones. After that, we killed all of the LV 1 Stone Tigers that we saw. We weren’t going to leave a single one for the [Dawn] players. Normally, the first time that a map is spawned is when the highest spawn rate for BOSSes and Lvl 1 pets was. After that first spawn, the chances of it spawning again are dramatically decreased. Killing the Lvl 1 Tiger is just to pull the carpet out from underneath them.
We continued killing monsters, picking herbs, and mining materials as we advanced forward. When we reached the border of the Stone Forest, we finally heard a “Ding!”When I was about to use up all of my Alchemy Pots, the system notified me: Congratulations, you’ve leveled up your alchemy skill! Since you are the first player to achieve Level 13 in Alchemy, you have received a special reward——[Holy Dragon Cauldron] (Vice God Item)!
“Huh?”
I widened my eyes. At first I thought that I had gotten it wrong. What’s a Vice God Item? Logically speaking, this game has also reached Level 150. There shouldn’t be any godly items that are released yet, right?!
I quickly opened up my bag and found a bright glowing cauldron, resting in the corner of my bag. I pulled it out and placed it in my hand. I could feel a soft godly aura floating around my hand. Wan Er had seen the same thing on the same. She was extremely clever and had already guessed it, “This… This is the reward for Leveling up to 13?”
“Yup.”
“What are its stats?”
I reached out and waved my hand over it, sharing the stats for everyone to see in the sky. Everyone was stunned——
