Chapter 19 – Darksnow (1/2)
“Motherf*cker, I knew something was up!” Fatty cursed, then turned Frostfang around and slashed it towards the newcomer instead of the boss.
When Fatty was searching for the entrance to the third floor, he already felt something amiss. It was as if someone else was also on the second floor. However, he did not show it on his face. Instead, he waited patiently. At the same time, the other person was clearly very patient as well, only choosing to appear when Fatty was just about to kill the boss.
Bang. Sizzle. Two sounds arose, one from the other person’s attack on the boss and one from Fatty’s attack on the person.
-164
A red number rose up. That person’s expression drastically changed, clearly not anticipating Fatty to have such high attack that a normal attack took away more than half of her health.
She frantically chugged down potions and retreated, while trying to use the dense group of skeletal lancers to avoid Fatty’s attack. However, Fatty was clearly more experienced. He swiftly moved and blocked off her path of retreat, forcing her into the skeletal lancer group.
“Stop!” That person was a pretty girl with a curvy body, full at the places where should be, and thin in the other places. She was wearing a common leather armor that revealed her beautiful legs outside. She had a worried expression on her face as she chugged down potions and screamed for Fatty to stop.
“How could there be something so nice as me stopping when you want me to?” Fatty muttered and applied Poison Fang on her, then turned around to use Combo Attack on the boss. Then, he turned back and used Appraisal on the girl. He did all three almost simultaneously, including handling attacking the boss, flawlessly.
Darksnow
Magic Apprentice
Level 10
“W-What’s wrong with you? I already said stop!” Darksnow turned completely green after getting poisoned, and that included even her iris.
“G-give me the antidote!” Darksnow repeatedly chugged down potions. Yet, even though Poison Fang dealt a respectable amount of damage, it wasn’t really much use against players. After all, it’s not like Fatty could poison someone for a few hours until they die, so Darksnow was clearly too worried about dying.
“Give me the antidote!” Darksnow was worried sick as she watched her health drop little by little
“You want the antidote?” Fatty pretended to search around his inventory for a while, then suddenly called out. “Oh, I just remembered, I don’t have the antidote!”
“You…” Darksnow was brought to tears as she watched her health creep lower. What’s more, since health potions had a cooldown time and the ones that she used were merely small red potions, it wasn’t enough to counteract the effects of the poison at all.
“Don’t worry, you won’t die,” Fatty said calmly and casually sliced away at the Skeletal Centurion.
“Ahh, phew, it stopped. My health finally stopped dropping,” Darksnow’s health bar finally stopped dropping when it reached less than 10%. She patted her perky breasts and let out a long sigh of relief.
“W-What’s with that look?” The moment Darksnow looked up, she immediately saw Fatty’s look of pity, which only caused her to get angry. She clenched her fists, and just as she wanted to say something, she felt a bit of pain on her back, then her remaining health vanished.
The moment Darksnow fell down, she saw a skeleton holding a lance crackle towards her with its empty sockets.
Whoosh.
At the same time, Fatty also killed the Skeletal Centurion, causing it to drop a small pile of items.
“Ahh, so pitiful,” Fatty sighed as he quickly picked the drops up.
However, there was still no Skeletal Spark. I guess the Skeletal Centurion isn’t high level enough. I’m can only go and kill the boss on the third floor. I wonder what it is, could it be a Skeletal Chiliarch?
Ding.
System Notification: Darksnow has sent you a friend request. Would you like to accept?
Fatty twitched his mouth, then chose to accept, causing a voice chat window to surface.
“Damn fatty, it’s all your fault. You caused me to drop a level, so I have to farm to level 10 again. Sob, now the reward for the first person to get their class enhancement is gone!”
Fatty was speechless. “How is it my fault that you dropped a level? It’s not like I killed you.”
“I don’t care. If it wasn’t because you poisoned me, I wouldn’t have lost so much health. And if I didn’t lose so much health, I wouldn’t have gotten killed by a small mob. You have to take responsibility.”
Fatty twitched. “I’m still too young. I don’t want to get married so early.”
“Die damn fatty! Wait, ahh, you’re called Money Grubber?”
“Yeah, don’t you already know that?”
“Oh, oh. You’re the former number one in rankings. C’mon, how about bringing me along to farm. No matter what, you’re responsible for me dropping a level, right?”
“What ranking?”
“You don’t even know about the rankings? It’s the Level Leaderboard, which shows the top hundred players with the highest levels. There is a leaderboard for each region, while there’s a world leaderboard for all the servers. You were once the number one of the Chinese region one and the global one, but your name isn’t even in the top ten now. Ahh, you can’t actually be the first player to reach level 10, right?”
“I once had so much glory? How do you check out the leaderboards?”
“Ugh. Alright. Check out your status board. There’s a green button with “ranking” on it. Just click on that.”
Fatty found the green button that Darksnow talked about, then clicked on it.
Leaderboard (CN)

1 Fierce Dragon TheTalent 10 Mage
2 TheFugitive 10 Rogue
3 West Gate BlowingSnow 10 Warrior

7 Crescent Moon 10 Archer
8 Cutelittlebunny 10 Archer
9 Willowinthewinds 10 Knight
10 Iamcocky 10 Warrior
…
Warrior was the most predominant class on the leaderboard. That was inevitable, after all, they had the highest attack in the beginning. Meanwhile, classes like Priests had pretty much negligible attack, and they can only level through others carrying them, making it extremely difficult.
Who the heck is TheFugitive, he actually stole my spot and made me second?
Fatty saw another button on the side, so he clicked on it
