Chapter 19 – Darksnow (2/2)

Equipment Leaderboard (Others)

1 Python Armor Leather Armor

2 Earthen Boots Metal Armor

3 Chicken King’s Madness Necklace

…

Damn, five out of the top six items on the equipment leaderboard is with me!

Fatty had a smug grin on his face.

“What happened? Why aren’t you speaking? You didn’t die, did you?”

“F*ck you. Lord Fatty is the undying cockroach, how could I die so easily. Also, man, why is the system doing this? Wouldn’t the people who don’t want to be famous be troubled?”

“Who doesn’t want to get famous? Everyone’s doing everything they can to get on there. Ahh, fatty, you still on there?”

Fatty answered carefully, “Yeah… Why?”

“Level me up.”

Fatty refused resolutely, “Impossible.”

“Y-You, you’re too petty!”

Fatty replied with a false exclamation, “Yeah, everyone else knows that. You only JUST found out?”

Then he glanced at the leaderboard, “You didn’t even get on the leaderboard, and you’re saying that you want to become the number one of your class.

“T-That’s none of your business. Hmmph, regardless, you still have to take responsibility.”

“Whatever, I’m going to keep doing my mission.”

“Fatty, look up.”

“What?”

He looked up, then saw Darksnow appearing before him.

Fatty was shocked, “You ran that quickly?”

“I had to. It’s hard for me to get someone to carry me.”

Fatty reached out his hand, “Fine, I can farm with you, but I need payment.”

“How much?” Darksnow looked at him with a look of disdain.

“10 gold coins per hour. I need half of it as upfront payment.”

“You…” Darksnow was infuriated. At that period of time, players with several gold coins were already rather well off. No one else was a professional boss hunter like Fatty who managed to kill several bosses already.

“You have no money? Then scurry off,” Fatty waved. “You think you’re amazing just cause you’re a beauty? There’s no way I’m working for free!”

After the Skeletal Centurion was killed, the entrance to the third floor was already revealed. It was in the corner of the level’s central cavern.

When Darksnow saw Fatty enter the third floor without any hesitation, Darksnow grit her teeth. Technically, she was a rare beauty as well. Ever since she started playing the game, plenty of players had offered to farm with her, but she refused them all. She never expected that she would get rejected without any hesitation the first time she asks someone else to farm with her.

“Is this karma?” Darksnow didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Beep. There was an incoming chat request.

“Snowy, what’re you doing? Did you get your class enhancement yet? I already got mine,” the chat request was from Willowinthewinds, one of Darksnow’s friends. She was also the mage ranked nine on the leaderboard.

“Not yet. I got poisoned when I was going to kill a mob, so my level dropped,” Darksnow thought about it, then told Willowinthewinds what happened.

“Ahaha, that’s karma for you,” a smug chuckle sounded out from the other side of the chat.

“Do you want to die? I just wanted to see how he managed to level up so quickly,” Darksnow waved her fists.

“Haha, I’m more interested in seeing just who is so amazing as to resist the seduction of our beauty Darksnow.”

“Oh yeah, didn’t you already get your class enhancement? Come on over

“Oh wow, you’re evil. He merely refused to farm with you, and you want to kill him,” the other side replied with an exaggerated tone.

“Hmph, isn’t causing me to lose a level enough?” Darksnow put her hands on her hips. “I’ll definitely take revenge.”

“Alright, stop talking like you’re a resentful woman that was discarded by her own husband. I’ll go over and take a look, then help you do your class enhancement mission along the way. As for the guy, it wasn’t easy for him to reach Level 10. What’s more, you did try to steal his boss first.”

“Fine, fine fine. Come quickly, he went down to the third level. He’s probably going to kill the boss. Let’s hurry over to steal it.”

…

Fatty had no idea what happened after he went down to the third floor. Or rather, he had no interest in finding out. At that moment, he was nearly in tears due to the monsters chasing after him.

Skeletal Knight

Level: 20

Attack: 90 – 110

Defense: 80

HP: 900

Skill: Charge

Notes: A warrior who died on the battlefield. His inextinguishable soul of battle revived it, allowing it to become a spooky skeleton to wait for the chance to step onto the battlefield once more.

Knights, a class of high attack and high health beings, countered rogues. What’s more, since Fatty did not get his class enhancement yet, he lack a lot of abilities, which only brought him more suffering.

A half-rotten skeleton rode on top of an equally rotten skeletal horse. It held a lance in its hand, and wore a rotten set of armor as it rode behind Fatty and chased after him. These monsters were everywhere in the entirety of the third floor. It was fortunate the Fatty had put points into Dexterity, and was naturally rather agile. That was the only reason why he was often able to dodge the monster’s attack when he nearly gets killed.

Bang. He turned around and used Combo Attack on the horse.

-121

-108

-100

The skill shaved off a third of the Skeletal Knight’s health.

“Ooh, I need to attack the horse first!” Fatty suddenly understood. He immediately dashed underneath the skeletal horse and reached out with his dagger towards the horse’s legs.
