393 Change in Progress (1/2)

Happy, who had experience in playing World of Martial Arts in his previous life, felt that many subtle changes had happened. They seemed to be insignificant, but they were changing the direction of the game in an intangible manner.

Happy had intentionally invited Pomelo into Mu Clan when the clan was initially built and supported him so that he became the best Grand Herbalist in Mu Clan. The clan's never-ending supply of wealth allowed them to create the first herbalist who did not lack money. In one month, Pomelo was at least two levels above all herbalists in the game, a grade two herbalist.

Heartless Iron was the best Forgemaster in Mu Clan. While he was not the best in terms of his level in the game and could not be considered among the top ranks, in the refinement trend that Kind Tycoon stirred up, Heartless Iron revealed his outstanding abilities, and his fame rose half a year earlier than what Happy expected.

Medicinal pills were used much earlier, and the trend of refinement also erupted much earlier than it did in Happy's previous life.

Yao Hua of Fox Cave died earlier, and the resources of the royal mausoleum were limited by a certain someone. The game right then was heading toward an unknown direction because of some unknown force.

Life and Death Realm had appeared ahead of schedule, and the hero invitation for the final battle against Light Summit were all official signs that the game was progressing off the course from what Happy knew!

It was something no one sensed except Happy.

He did not know whether this divergence was good or bad though.

The other martial artists in World of Martial Arts, however, only knew that the hero invitation was sent to all heroes in the game to fight against Light Summit, and it would help them create an incredibly great fortuitous event.

Some TV stations began to madly broadcast the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber to increase their viewership ratings.

Various martial artists began to make preparations for the final battle against Light Summit. They could not be lacking in terms of their equipment, weapons, medicinal pills, or martial arts.

That was something that all normal martial artists prepared, however. Those who were slightly smarter would prepare some unique items such as traps, poison, antidotes, even stronger recovery pills, along with some items that could be used in unexpected situations!

At that moment, a handful of people who had a lot of resources also entered private schools and used up a lot of money to increase their Comprehension or went to the commission shop to buy medicinal pills that could increase their Affinity. Since the game was launched, many people could prove that players who had high Affinity and Comprehension would catch the eyes of great masters in the game and some were fortunate enough to inherit their skills.

Happy was no exception. He put a request to buy sacred medicine that could increase his attribute as well as Small Reversion Pills in the commission shop. Then, he trained and continued to increase his qi just like usual to reach Life and Death Realm.

Black Willow Mountain Manor, which was outside Vast Martial City, was a forbidden ground for many players, because it had three people whose abilities had reached Moksha Realm: Manor Master, Second Manor Master, and Third Manor Master. They were incredibly powerful, and they liked to do things such as rob houses and plunder villages. The players who wandered into the area often never returned.

But that was a pretty good training spot for Happy.

Most of the members of Black Willow Mountain Manor had reached Life and Death Realm, so if he ventured slightly deeper into the area, he was able to find a group of black-robed people equipped with soft body armor. Happy only needed to carefully handle three of them before throwing knives at them from behind. At the same time, he could also increase the levels of his high-tier lightness skill, Swimming Dragon, and Shadowless Knife.

Over a few days, Happy threw an uncountable amount of throwing knives. He was probably beyond tens of thousands. While increasing the level of his hidden weapon technique intermittently, he managed to push it to the eighth realm, so his progress could be considered to be pretty good.

However, his throwing knives only split into two, and the damage was not enough. It could not even reach two thousand.

Happy flashed past the tall walls of the grand manor to the sound of cries of surprise. He stopped on the roof of the main hall of Black Willow Mountain Manor and immediately saw nearly one hundred big men dressed in black soft body armor and carrying scimitars. They surrounded him with with fierce looks after coming out from the gate, the left and right wings, and inside the courtyard.

”How dare you?!”

”Who dares invade Black Willow Mountain Manor?!”

A loud, mighty, and furious roar rang through the air, and it made even more men in charge of protecting the manor to surge over from all directions.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!
