123 Fighting Water Fairy Part 2 (1/2)

Lu Li took out the ‘Shadow Cloak’ skill book from his backpack and showed it to Water Fairy.

Her face was suddenly shocked and she quickly swallowed.

“Are you willing to sell it me?”

“Yep!”

“Why would you want to sell such a good skill book to me?”

This was too good to be true; Water Fairy didn’t dare to believe it.

In Dawn, less than 10 people would end up learning Shadow Cloak. Water Fairy had been trying to buy this skill book for a long time, but had been unsuccessful so far. She didn’t think that would ever find it, let alone in the hands of Lu Li.

Lu Li laughed at this scene.

The answer was self-evident and as Water Fairy realized this, her eyes widened.

“You actually found two copies of ‘Shadow Cloak’!”

Three, silly girl!

Lu Li was actually quite proud of this, even if his face didn’t show it. He shook the skill book in his hands and said, “If you want it, name your price. I’ll sell it if you name an appropriate one. I can’t really be bothered to take it to the Exchange Hall.”

“One hundred gold!” Water Fairy hesitated for a moment before declaring her price.

When Lu Li first entered the game, he had been incredibly lucky and had managed to find a Mage crowd-control skill book – ‘Frost Nova’. At the time, he had sold it for 20 gold, but the value of gold was $1500:1. The 20 gold he had earned translated to $30,000.

Now, the exchange rate of gold was $300:1. If Water Fairy payed 100 gold, then the value of ‘Shadow Cloak’ and ‘Frost Nova’ would be the same.

However, the price that she had named reflected her sincerity. Lu Li could have pushed to get a little more, but he didn’t do so. Instead, he directly traded the skill book to her.

“100 is fine by me. Just give it to Moonlight. It’ll be tonight’s ante.”

“Thank you so much; I’ll buy you a meal one day if you’re free.”

Water Fairy nodded happily as she grinned. Her whole face seemed to radiate with joy.

She was the kind of person that people couldn’t take their eyes off, but she had a cold demeanor, so most people kept their distance. However, in this moment, her true personality had been revealed. Who would have thought that she had such a pure smile?

“Alright, if there are no other questions, we should get started.”

The more-experienced Moonlight couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed for him.

This guy deserved to be single for the rest of his life!

Water Fairy nodded and began to paint something onto her dagger.

Lu Li couldn’t help but watch her and sigh. This was a benefit of being a tycoon; she had already started to use poisons.

He had Pick-Pocketed poison from the Undead Herbalist, but had already used it to fight a Boss. Later, he tried to look for poisons in the Exchange Hall but couldn’t find any. He didn’t know if Water Fairy had found hers, or if it had been produced by her guild members.

If it had been produced by Drizzle Court guild players, he could potentially ask about purchasing some after the PVP. For now, he would just forget about it; there was no way she would give him some before the fight.

Lu Li spent a gold coin to construct a common room that was used in Thief vs. Thief battles, before telling Water Fairy the room password.

Before long, the two of them appeared in the competition room.

This map was similar to one that Lu Li was in before; it was just a small circular platform.

Lu Li and Water Fairy made eye contact one last time before almost simultaneously going into Stealth. The two of them immediately lost track of each other, but the arena wasn’t very big. Eventually, they were bound to run into one another.

Lu Li’s footsteps were light, as he floated about.

It wasn’t long before Water Fairy should have been near where he was originally. Lu Li carefully tried to sense any movement in the air. His brain was simulating the field like a net, attempting to sift out any irregularities.

In his previous life, Lu Li also needed to be sneaky, so his Stealthing-ability was very natural.
