Chapter 129: Winnie’s Apprenticeship?
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This time, Sun Conqueror’s equipment was almost perfect. He had also gained high combat power. After all, the equipment he received from nightmare mode were great!
After clearing this dungeon, although Sun Conqueror’s overall combat power had decreased, his individual combat power had increased significantly.
Before leaving the dungeon, Sun Conqueror kindly asked Li Yi about the details of clearing this dungeon. In any case, everyone had seen the entire process. Li Yi did not hide anything and told him about the flaws in the building. He also told him that he had to immediately kill the monster the moment it opened.
Sun Conqueror understood what he meant but was still shocked by the loopholes in this game.
If there was not any loopholes the game created, it would have been impossible to achieve the win.
Once again, everyone exclaimed at the wonders of Divine Revelation. Moreover, everyone made a promise to each other that they would not reveal this mechanism before others discovered it.
This way, Sun Conqueror could take advantage of this loophole for a few more times.
Although they would lose a lot of manpower, to them, it was no big deal to lower their levels by 2 levels. They wanted to develop in the long term and not pursue this short-term success as a powerful guild.
They could level up again, but having perfect equipment was incomparable.
Li Yi only silently nodded his head and did not say anything else.
He knew that he could not tell them what was about to happen, or what was about to not happen, in fact.
He could only advise them not to raid dungeons too quickly and come back when everyone reaches level 25. He also told them about the skills they needed to resist the Heroic Spirit boss’s final skill.
Although there were not many skills of this type, if they had the money, they could buy four or five skill books. For now, money was not a problem for the Scorching Sun Guild.
The wealth they obtained from this dungeon raid was enough for them to buy more than five!
After everyone agreed to hide this secret, everyone left the dungeon together.
Among them, Winnie had also promised everyone not to reveal this secret. She did not speak the entire time. Her gaze had been secretly watching Li Yi. Her gaze was no longer as naive as it was at the beginning. Instead, there were some indescribable complicated emotions to it.
When everyone returned to the square, they were immediately surrounded by countless players.
Everyone surrounded them to ask them about the mechanics in the dungeon.
When everyone was distracted, Li Yi and Clutch King had managed to slipp away.
Sun Conqueror, Sun Express, and the others were left at a loss. Although they had seen this scene before, it was not to the extent of them immediately dashing away from the first sight of other players.
“How exactly did you clear the dungeon?”
“Can you share the data of the boss inside?”
“Is there a video of the dungeon gameplay? I’ll pay a high price for it.”
“Where’s Carefree Dream? Where is my idol?”
Sun Conqueror looked at everything haphazardly going on in from of him and told everyone he had no comment before he squeezed out of the crowd and escaped.
“No comment?”
“They’re lying. Don’t tell me they want to keep the dungeon secrets for themselves?”
“If they don’t want to talk about it, what can you do? If you have the ability, go and clear the dungeon yourself.”
“That’s right, the dungeon is right there. Go on then.”
“Eh, shouldn’t there be more than ten people in the dungeon? How come there are only a few people who came out?”
“There were a lot of people who came out earlier, and they were all demoted.”
“How do you know about demoting?”
“I saw it with my own eyes. I saw someone that was originally level 22 when he entered, but after he came out, he dropped to level 20.”
“Oh my gosh losing two levels in a row is scary.”
“No wonder he didn’t want to share anything. The cost of clearing this dungeon is a lot.”
“I’m afraid several members of the Scorching Sun Guild has already dropped a few levels.”
“Looks like we can’t challenge the nightmare mode that casually.”
“Let’s go level up first. I guess we can’t touch this dungeon unless we’re level 25 or above.”
“Sigh, what a pity.”
After Sun Conqueror left, the members of Proud Guild listened to every word of this information and disappeared into the shadows.
On the other hand, Li Yi and Clutch King, who had just come out, ran towards Li Yi’s shop. Before they came out, they contacted Snow Chaser, who had come out in advance, to meet at the shop so that they would not be seen by others.
Li Yi was now a big star, and if he ran into fans like Winnie again, it would cause the both of them a huge headache.
When they saw Snow Chaser — who sat quietly at the shop’s entrance — the two of them quickly went up to greet her.
When they came over, Snow Chaser oddly pointed behind them and asked, “Why is she here?”
The two of them turned their heads in confusion.
Turns out, it was Winnie that stood behind them grinning from cheek to cheek.
“Kid, you’re really haunting me. Why haven’t you left yet after finishing this dungeon?”
Clutch King pointed at Winnie anxiously. After saying this, he felt that he had been too rude, so he withdrew his hand. Clutch King now had a grudge against Winnie. If it had not been for Li Yi protecting her, she could’ve have been the sacrifice instead of Snow Chaser.
Snow Chaser would not have dropped levels either.
It was not like Clutch King could put all his hatred on Li Yi, so he directed some onto Winnie as well.
Winnie hesitated for a moment, then bowed to Li Yi.
“I want to be strong. Please teach me how to be strong, master!”
“Master?!”
Clutch King and Snow Chaser were both stunned as they said the same thing. Li Yi, on the other hand, almost dropped whatever was in his hand at that moment.
“Winnie, I didn’t agree to be your master, and in this game, you have to rely on yourself to become stronger.”
After hearing Li Yi’s words, Winnie began to think about her own path.
The reason why she came to play divine Revelation was because of her sister’s invitation. After coming to Divine Revelation, she really liked the scenery here, so she stayed. Plus, she was completely uninterested in fighting.
The reason was that every time there was a battle, she only needed to watch from the side and let others work for her. She was a beauty that did not need to fight.
Her sister was the one that told her this, and that was why she had gone down that path.
Before playing Divine Revelation, she was a fan for a famous idol. As long as she finds a new idol to fawn over, she would follow him around everywhere.
Her philosophy was that the person she follows must be the strongest.
After playing Divine Revelation, she began to follow Li Yi because she knew that Li Yi was number one on the leaderboard and the first clear of the dungeon.
As for who Li Yi was, she did not care what he liked as long as he was the strongest.
However, after meeting Li Yi, her perception on things started to change.
When she saw Li Yi leading the team, she was attracted by his rationality and calmness.
When she saw Li Yi smiling at her and giving her the potions, she was attracted by his gentleness and consideration.
When she saw Li Yi standing in front of the boss without any fear, she was attracted by his bravery.
However, these things were not what changed her.
What really changed her was when Li Yi raised his shield in front of her, and had been forced back by the lightning pillar.
It was when Snow Chaser had offered herself and Li Yi had been unable to catch Snow Chaser; he had looked so helpless.
It was when Clutch King had berated and scolded Li Yi’ he had been rendered speechless and powerless.
When those scenes played out, she finally understood that this powerful man who was seen as almighty could also be helpless.
Maybe it was at that moment that she wanted to help this man.
It was this thought that made her want to become stronger.
