Chapter 171: I Hate You (1/2)
Swhoosh!
I appeared in Floating Ice City's inn. Immediately, as I came online, there was a series of bells ringing above Floating Ice City—
Ding~!
System Announcement: Guild “Flower Room” has officially declared war on “Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls”!
……
Ah, it appears that Spring Mud, Moon Shadow, and Night Sorrow had reached the nest of Flower Room after leaving our guild.
From when virtual games started to develop to now, there were so many gaming workshops, large and small, good and bad. For example, people like Li Le, had weak battle sense, mechanics, tactics, and game knowledge. But he had money, so he had no problems recruiting experts and starting his own gaming workshop.
Most of the gaming workshops relied on teamwork to make some money, but some workshops were bound to incur losses and be used for some young master to have fun. Flower Room was undoubtedly one of the latter. That I was certain of.
I didn’t say anything, and moved Flower Room into the enemy list. With our two guilds at war, our players would see each other as red in the wild. There would be no spoken words, just instant slaughter upon meeting!
I walked out of the inn and found Li Le and the others on the plaza by the eastern gate. There were about 40 players of them grouped together. Spring Mud, Moon Shadow, and Night Sorrow were standing proudly next to Li Le with respect and reverent expressions.
Li Le held a sword as he proudly walked forward and laughed. ”Today, Flower Room welcomes Spring Mud, Moon Shadow, and Night Sorrow into our midst. They have performed spectacularly in the Who Will Fight Me tournament. Now, the four of us are our brothers. How can we not get revenge for our brothers? Hmph, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls have done them wrong, so they can’t call our actions injustice!”
Spring Mud said, ”Leader, don't worry. We will turn Flower Room into an iron lion, we won’t disappoint you!”
Li Le nodded. ”The three of you managed to prop up Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls. Hmph, if not for you, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls would not have reached their current heights. As the saying goes, “After the cunning rabbit is dead, the dog is cooked”. From Water went overboard this time. Starting today, the three of you are elders of Flower Room. We will work together to create the legend of Flower Room and slaughter Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls to the last!”
”Alright!”
Having a parade was a glorious action. But having a parade on the eastern gate plaza looked like a monkey circus.
……
I repaired my armor, and then toured around the nearby stalls.
I looked inside my bag. I didn't have many potions and needed some more!
”Young hero, buy my potions! Our Lin's Shop is reputable. If you buy my potions, I’ll pay you ten for one fake!” a middle-aged man shouted at me.
I was helpless. ”Rank 4 potions are too weak. If I encounter a boss, I will die...”
”Damn, don't you know to put two into your mouth at the same time?” the man shouted.
I also spat blood. Two? I wasn't a GM, could I ignore the potion cooldown?
At this time, a sweet voice came from behind me—
”Hey, Lu Chen...”
I turned around and found Clear Perfume standing by the wall at a stall filled with all kinds of potions, including Rank 6 Health Potions! Everyone knew that these pots could restore 1500 HP in one gulp. They were even better than priests, and were absolutely necessary for fighting bosses or leveling up!
”Qingqing!”
I smiled and said, ”You are also selling here?”
”Yes, to get living expenses...”
I glanced at the Rank 6 Health Potions at the stall and said with a smile, ”It doesn't appear as simple as just for living expenses? Tsk tsk, more than three hundred bottles… Is Lin Yixin crazy? She likely hasn't leveled up and has been gathering herbs all this time. Otherwise, where could she have found so many high-rank herbs to make these potions?”
Clear Perfume smiled and nodded. ”Yes, Yiyi worked hard these days. She has been gathering herbs the entire night, and only went to sleep about an hour ago.”
I was slightly moved and said, ”Why is Yiyi working so hard? She needs money?”
”Yes, it appears so. Yiyi and I are splitting this fifty-fifty. She provides the herbs, I make potions and sell them. We each get half of the money...”
I smiled. ”Lin Yixin is a money miser, a gold fanatic...”
Clear Perfume burst into laughter. ”Yes, Yiyi is like you say!”
”Oh..” I stuck out my lips. ”Such a pity. Yiyi is awake at night and sleeps during the day. It’s hard to even meet her...”
Clear Perfume looked meaningfully at me and laughed softly, ”Stop that. It’s too easy if you really sincerely want to see Yiyi. I can make an appointment for you, and you can invite her to eat. She’ll be very happy~~!”
”Never mind. Money's been tight recently. I’ll ask her when I have money...”
”I look down at you!” Clear Perfume laughed. ”You don’t understand the feeling of holding the phone and waiting for a call.”
”What do you mean?”
”Nothing, are you going to buy potions? I’ll give you a discount since we’re buds, only 120% of the price!”
”...”
I looked at the potions at the stall and said, ”How much are you selling these potions for?”
”10 gold for 1! With my special discount, only 12 gold each!” Clear Perfume looked seriously at me and said clearly.
