Chapter 640: Broadback War Elephan (1/2)
Bang, bang...
Someone was knocking on my door furiously, and I subsequently heard Murong Mingyue yell at me like a bossy older sister, ”Get up already! Hmph, someone said that he would be working really hard last night, but Luo River God of the Capital somehow managed to become the first player to complete her sixth class promotion! She even got a 3-star Outstanding Heaven-grade staff out of it! Great, just great! Hurry up and haul your lazy ass off the bed! It’s time to eat lunch…”
I groggily got up from my bed, put on my clothes, and opened the door. I was startled when a fist almost collided with my face as Murong Mingyue had intended to knock on my door again. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and caught her fist with my hand before asking, ”What is it… What’s the big deal about the first player to get her sixth class promotion? So what if it’s a Heaven-grade staff? I have no use for it anyway…”
Murong Mingyue looked at me bitterly and muttered, “But I do…”
I glanced at her and said, ”That’s not advantageous to me in the least. You wouldn’t give me a single cent even if I gave you a Heaven-grade staff. Why the hell do I care…”
”Hmph, you brat!”
At this moment, He Yi spoke up, ”Alright, cut it out you two. Go wash up so that we can head out for lunch. Lu Chen, work hard and become the first warrior to complete his sixth class promotion. In the end, a warrior’s leveling speed can’t be compared with a mage’s, so it’s fine.”
I nodded my head before rushing to the washroom to wash up.
Finally, the first sixth class promotion player! This was the beginning of a new era! I wondered what skills Luo River God of the Capital had learned now that she had finished promotion. She must have grown even more powerful!
Furthermore, the second Heaven-grade item had finally appeared in the China server, and it was a Heaven-grade weapon at that! The mysterious Heaven-grade items had finally started appearing in the server. This was a good thing!
……
We quickly scarfed our lunch down, eager to return back to the game. Wasting no time, we went online immediately after returning back to the workshop.
I continued grinding so I could reach Level 150 and attain my sixth class promotion. Meanwhile, Beiming Xue decided to equip her Dragonbone String and train her Purgatory Thunder Beast. He Yi also continued to grind so that she could equip the Blade of the Earthen Soul at Level 145.
Swhoosh!
I could well imagine how many players would end up bidding on those sets when they hit the market. I’m sure that even players from other cities would come and bid on them! Every guild was trying to create their own ace warriors and this Level 135 Roland Equipment Set would definitely tick most of those boxes. This was especially true for rich players like Pillar of the Nation, Roaming Dragon, and Li Le. Buying super equipment to recruit players was a commonly-used tactic of theirs.
Next on my to-do-list was to find a good map to grind in! After thinking about it for a while, I decided that the map that Lin Yixin had brought me to last time, the one that was in the middle of the Dragonbone Mountain Range was a decent map to grind in. With my current stats and the Phantom Wolf King, I could sweep through it without breaking a single sweat. I reckoned that I would be able to reach Level 150 in less than three hours!
If so, I should get a mount in advance. I grinned happily as I reopened the auction house interface. I clicked on the Mount Pet Egg filter and set the level range filter to between 130 to 150.
After I clicked on the search button, nearly a hundred mount eggs appeared on the results page. The best of the bunch was a Ghost Wolf, a Level 135 Spirit Rank mount, but it was being sold at an utterly ridiculous price! My eyes widened in shock as I exclaimed, ”What the heck, what a rip-off! They’re asking for 900000 RMB?! I’m definitely not paying that amount!”
I continued scrolling through the list of Mount Pet Eggs until I decided on one which had decent stats and was decently priced.

……
This war elephant was gigantic, incredibly eye-catching and fulfilled all my Requirements! Furthermore, this Level 125 Dark Gold Rank Mount Pet Egg only cost 250 gold coins. What a steal!
I instantly bought out the Mount Pet Egg and a ”ding” rang out as the Broadback Elephant Mount Pet Egg appeared in my inventory. I scratched my head in confusion as I tried to figure out why an elephant, a mammal, would be able to lay eggs. Forget it! Only a dumbass would bother thinking too deeply about the game’s design.
I left the city and headed past the Sky Mountain Range and entered the Undead Region. Sky City sure had a large quantity and variety of mobs. There were no lack of Corpse Eaters, Cave Devils, and Corrosive Worms in the Undead Region which was extremely advantageous to me. I brandished my sword and charged into the horde of mobs. I then proceeded to aggro a large bunch of them into the groove of a triangular stone wall before I started my killing spree.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Burning Blade Slash, Thousand Ice Slash, and my other skills exploded into the group of monsters and I noticed that my Silver Dragon Storm and Cyan Netherworld Divine Dragon were proccing much more frequently. Perhaps this was due to my higher level, but the monsters started dropping like flies as they were ravaged by this skill.
Awooo!
The Phantom Wolf King raised its head proudly and howled. Brandishing its claws, it landed a swift smack on a Corpse Eater’s head. Turning around swiftly, it unleashed Claw of the Storm readily amidst a group of mobs. I took control over the Phantom Wolf King and released Purgatory Storm every two minutes. I grinned in satisfaction as the tornado wreaked havoc among a group of mobs, effectively killing many of them.
I also constantly repositioned myself to protect the little wolf. Even though its health regen was very high, it couldn’t drink potions or use recovery skills like Tenacity of the Dead. Moreover, I wasn’t a tamer, so I couldn’t use the ”Comfort” skill to swiftly heal it. This was the only way I could prevent it from dying.
