“$200 for an hour, f*ck…” The Knight was about to swear, but once his eye came into contact with the cold stare of Shadow Chaser, he immediately shut his mouth. “Erm, my bad, it was a slip of the tongue.”

Shadow Chaser seemed to be getting a bit fed up.

“Hmph, scram if you don’t have money. As if I would want to help you.” Moon Scar•Shadow Chaser’s attitude instantly did a 180-degree turn. “Who would have thought that she was not only quite beautiful, but also this tough? Are violent women getting popular these days?” Xiao Yu could not help but comment secretly.

Actually, $200 was not much, as the items in the game were becoming more and more expensive. Level 30-40 Excellent-grade equipment could sell for a few hundred of dollars in the Auction House. However, to a level 10+ player, it was obvious he was still unable to accept spending that much money.

However, Moon Scar•Shadow Chaser continued speaking. “It’s obvious that you two are noobs that don’t know anything. Just take a look around. The number of Mercenaries at my level can be counted on one hand. One hour is enough for me to help you complete the job-changing mission and help you raise your level by two or three.”

The Knight was still unconvinced. “If I had $200, why wouldn’t I hire a few Adventurers to help us raise our level? Even maximum level Adventurers could be hired.”

“You’re right, but the question is: how many levels can you raise in one hour?”

“That…” The Knight was instantly speechless as he really did not know.

“Let me tell you. Currently, the fastest Adventurer could help you raise your level by one at most because there is the punishment mechanism. When high-level players level up with low-level players, most of the EXP go to the high-level player, so the both of you would only be able to get a little bit of EXP. It might even be slower than you training by yourselves.

“However, it’s different if you find Mercenaries, as they are not counted and would only take 20% of the total EXP. Most of the EXP would still go to the Adventurer, thus I could totally help you raise three to five levels in an hour easily. I could also help you do the job-changing mission, but can high-level Adventurers help you? You should know that job-changing missions are very important because although it’s not hard to pass them, it’s difficult to do well in them. You know that there are numerous types of Devils that a Warlock could summon, and the battle strength of each one is completely different. Also, there is a huge difference between a Void Devil and Abyss Devil. Therefore, if you go and do the mission yourself, you could summon a Void Walker at most, or you might even just summon an Imp. However, with my help, you could at least summon a Devil Guardian—even a Berserker Devil or Devil Knight is possible.”

After she finished speaking, those two were speechless, but Moon Scar•Shadow Chaser continued yet again, “However, just by looking at the both of you, you don’t seem like those that are willing to spend a few hundred dollars to summon a powerful Devil, so don’t waste my freaking time. Go and talk to those guys there. They’re cheap, you can hire them with just a few bucks.” She pointed at the Mercenaries that were around level 10 at the side.

Then she ignored the both of them after she finished speaking.

Indeed, she was a professional gamer. Xiao Yu thought that it was easy to determine that she was a professional gamer because he himself was one, so he was very clear of the personalities of those types of people. They would do as they were requested if hired with money, so it would not be difficult to deal with them. Not only would she not become a problem, she might even be of assistance.

The Warlock still decided to hire a level 11 Druid Mercenary in the end by spending only tens of silver coins. Considering that Druids could transform into bears to tank monsters and even heal people, it was counted as quite the good choice.

After they left, Xiao Yu took the glass of wine in his hand and walked towards Moon Scar•Shadow Chaser. “Hello, beautiful lady. Can I treat you to a drink?” said Xiao Yu with a native Darnassus accent. This was the Night Elf language.
