Chapter 802: We’re Rich

Translator: alyschu

The muscles on Blue Sky Scar’s face twitched as Candlelight Shadow slowly moved forward. He was sitting on a black Dragonscale Warhorse and his sword was clad in flames. It seemed like Candlelight Shadow’s equipment had improved significantly. Moreover, the cyan swords that circled protectively around him indicated that he was in his Great Earth Transformation state.

......

Candlelight Shadow looked at Lin Yixin before smiling "Beauty Lin, I respect you for saving us with your God’s Tear during the Nation Wars. However, could you not be so biased?"

Lin Yixin giggled and said, "I’m not biased. I just can’t stand to see others bully my Little Cheat. What, you got a problem with that?"

Candlelight Shadow gritted his teeth in frustration before saying, "God’s Tear is a forbidden skill so you can’t use that anymore. Why make an enemy of me? Do you really think that you are a match for my Outer Flame?"

Candlelight Shadow raised a hand as a blazing flame hovered in the center of his palm. It was his Divine General Skill, Outer Flame. Having an active Divine General Skill made Candlelight Shadow much stronger than Lin Yixin currently.

Purple Marquis charged forward and swung his sword, releasing three consecutive waves of sword energy at the head of Candlelight Shadow’s mount. Candlelight Shadow was forced to take a few steps back from the impact of the attack and even lost 50k HP. Purple Marquis’s gaze turned chilly as he said, "I’ll slaughter anyone who dares to threaten our guild leader! So what if you have a Divine General Skill! Come at us if you dare, Candlelight Shadow! I’m not afraid of you!"

"Fuck, what arrogance!"

Tempest Shadow raised his spear and shouted, "Candlelight Shadow, let me kill this asshole!"

Candlelight Shadow remained calm as he said, "Stand back. You’re not on the same level as he is."

Candlelight Shadow turned to look at Lin Yixin and said, "Beauty Lin, you have my respect. I implore you to understand us. Hmph, a few hours ago Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls eliminated a thousand of Candle Dragon First Seed players. I, Candlelight Shadow must have revenge for my brothers and sisters! I will make Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls pay with their lives for what they did!"

Lin Yixin raised a delicate eyebrow and giggled. "Attack then. After all, we’re all rivals here, aren’t we? Didn’t Candle Dragon also declare war on Snowy Cathaya? Are you not attacking because you don’t feel fully confident of winning? Is it because your six allies, Hall of Immortality, Rose of the Holy Domain, Throne Seeker, Thunder, Wings of Awakening and Silver Soul have not arrived yet?"

"The audacity!"

Candlelight Shadow turned red with fury. Lin Yixin had cleverly hit the nail on the head. Candlelight Shadow was a ruthless person and would definitely not bother to uphold righteousness. He did not make any rash moves because he was not certain of victory. Otherwise, he would have attacked Snowy Cathaya a long time ago.

......

At this moment, the clanging of swords rang out from the side. Soon after, a Level 153 magic knight sprinted toward us before tumbling to the ground and shouted, "Fuck! That lass is too powerful!"

Before he could climb to his feet, he was engulfed by a fire dragon from behind. It was a high-level mage’s Fire Dragon Spell.

Bang, bang, bang!

Stranger of Three Lifetimes walked over with her staff in hand as Eyes Like Water, the tamer Lasting and other guild members followed closely behind her. Blazing Hot Lips has finally arrived.

"That person was... a player from Hall of Immortality..." Transient Smoke and Clouds muttered. He lifted his head suddenly and turned to Stranger of Three Lifetimes before shouting, "What’s the meaning of this! How dare you attack your comrades just as the Northern Alliance is entering Nine Tigers Soul Suppressing Tower! Blazing Hot Lips has no sense of morality or justice!"

Stranger of Three Lifetimes blushed red before shouting, "Pooh! How dare you slander me! Hall of Immortality ambushed Blazing Hot Lips’ main party and even killed two of my priests! They should thank the heavens and the earth that I did not dig up the graves of their ancestors as revenge! How dare you speak about morality and justice to me! Which of you morons from the Avengers understand the meaning of justice and morality?"

Candlelight Shadow’s mouth started to twitch but he remained silent. He was clearly a man of actions, not words. Lin Yixin and Stranger of Three Lifetimes were clever ladies after all. They would never lose in a battle of words.

......

At this moment, God’s Dance shouted, "Candlelight Shadow, Vienna’s Sorrow is here!"

"What? Vienna?!"

Candlelight Shadow’s gaze turned cold as he gazed to the south. True enough, Vienna’s Sorrow was leading a large group of Hero City players this way. There were many of them and all of them were elites.

Clang!

Candlelight Shadow unsheathed his sword and growled, "Candle Dragon listen to me! Stop fighting with Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls for now and come with me! Our opponents have arrived! It’s time for Candle Dragon to shine! Attack!"

Candlelight Shadow, Blue Sky Scar, Tempest Shadow and the rest charged toward Vienna’s Sorrow and his troops. Vienna’s Sorrow brandished his sword and did the same while shouting, "Comrades, attack! The Chinese are battling against Heavenstealing Tiger! Eliminate them and take the very first Tiger Soul Essence for ourselves!"

Candlelight Shadow swung his sword and shot a crescent wave of sword energy into the crowd. "Trying to steal the Heavenstealing Tiger from us? Dream on!"

......

If memory serves me well, Candle Dragon suffered greatly during the battle at Eternal Love City. Three of Candle Dragon’s core members had been killed by Vienna’s Sorrow resulting in their great enmity with Heroes Alliance. Although Candle Dragon was settling their personal vendetta, they had also relieved our troubles. While Candle Dragon kept Heroes Alliance busy, Ancient Sword Dreaming Souls could fully concentrate on killing the boss.

"Attack!"

Vienna’s Sorrow brandished his sword and killed three Candle Dragon players in one go. Candlelight Shadow charged in from the side and slammed into the man. Vienna’s Sorrow was forced back by the impact and lost a huge chunk of his health. After that, Candlelight Shadow stretched his hand out as flames flew out and exploded among a group of enemies. Unleashing his Outer Flame, raging flames descended from heaven and enveloped an area of 20 by 60 yards. Heroes Alliance players dropped like flies and many retreated swiftly to avoid being hit.

"Great job!"

Blue Scar Sky laughed loudly before brandishing his sword as a sword energy circled around him. The moment Outer Flame was unleashed, Candle Dragon gained the upper hand over Heroes Alliance solely because Candlelight Shadow was a Divine General.

Vienna’s Sorrow retreated quickly but calmly. Pointing his sword forward, he growled, "Fire your Shock Arrows!"

Pchhtt!

Arrows whistled through the air and successfully stunned the frontmost Viper Dragoons. Vienna’s Sorrow raised his hand and shouted, "Unleash Galaxy Storm and eliminate them!"

Boom, boom, boom!

Galaxy Storm rained down on a group of Candle Dragon players, one-shotting a dozen riders at the forefront. The powerful attacks left many Candle Dragon players stupefied as they did not expect for the players of Heroes Alliance to be this powerful. Moreover, there were at least a thousand of them!

......

While Candle Dragon was busy dealing with Heroes Alliance, we continued attacking the Heavenstealing Tiger. Every time its head glowed, I would deliver Magic Piercing Punch to it and interrupt its attempt to use Heavenstealing Technique. This put our players at ease so they could concentrate on encircling the boss and killing it quickly.

I turned around and was shocked by the battle situation between Candle Dragon and Heroes Alliance. Vienna’s Sorrow’s troops were extremely powerful. In addition to that, there were many of them.

Stranger of Three Lifetimes gripped her staff and said, "Omigosh, when did Heroes Alliance get such a powerful mage team? Didn’t the series of traps prevent players from using Leap and Flash? How did so many of their mages pass through those traps..."

Lin Yixin replied, "Simple. They activated their Magic Shields and forced their way through. I highly doubt that all of them possess the mechanical skills to pass through the series of traps. Even Zi Chuanyu had to crawl and roll through those traps, let alone those bunch of players."

Zi Chuanyu rubbed his nose awkwardly and said, "Guild leader, could you not mock me so harshly? I’ll treat you to dinner..."

Lin Yixin giggled and replied, "There’s no need for that. Little Cheat will pay for my meals!"

Zi Chuanyu and Purple Marquis were left stumped for words.

......

At this moment, Heavenstealing Tiger gave out a loud growl. That was the final straw! After taking thousands of hits, he had only a sliver of health left and was in imminent danger.

"Time to gain some EXP!"

Li Chengfeng laughed loudly as a group of players unleashed their skills all at once. Dragonbone Flurry, Burning Blade Slash, Purgatory of Ice and Magma and other skills exploded at the Heavenstealing Tiger at the same time.

Awoo, awoo, awoo...

The battered and bruised Heavenstealing Tiger gave out a pitiful cry and collapsed. Everyone’s eyes lit up as the ground was instantly littered with stones and equipment.

Dashing forward, I quickly picked up the dropped items and presented all five of them for everyone to see.

Sword of True Crimson (Earth-grade, Outstanding★★★★): Attack 1200~1450, Strength +200, Stamina +215. Increases user’s attack by 40%. Outstanding Property: Improves blood circulation, increasing user’s HP regeneration by 150%. Level Requirement: 155

Necklace of Compassion (Earth-grade, Outstanding★★★). Intelligence +190, Stamina +200. Increases user’s Magic Attack by 35%. Outstanding Property: Pity, increases user’s healing power by 40%. Level Requirement: 155

Cyan Wings Wristguards (Earth-grade, Outstanding★★★★). Agility +120, Stamina +190. Increases user’s Agility by 20%. Outstanding Property: Cyan Wings. When activated, user’s movement speed will increase by 70% for 60 seconds. Level Requirement: 155

Cyan Wings Ring (Spirit-grade, Outstanding★★). Agility +175, Stamina +180. Increases user’s melee attack power by 15%. Outstanding Property: Cyan Wings. When activated, user’s movement speed will increase by 30% for 60 seconds. Level Requirement: 155

The last item was a Purple Gold–grade staff. We were considered lucky to have obtained three Earth-grade, one Spirit-grade and one Purple Gold–grade item from an Immortal Rank boss. It was a pity that I did not get the last hit in. Otherwise, it may have very well dropped Immortal-grade equipment, or at least Heaven-grade. After all, my 54 Luck was nothing to sneeze at.

Sword of True Crimson had the highest Attack so I gave it to Chaos Moon. Necklace of Compassion went to Moonlight Stone, Cyan Wings Wristguards went to Beiming Xue and the Cyan Wings Ring went to Cute Little Naughty. Each piece of equipment had found its owner.

......

"Where are all the items that Heavenstealing Tiger stole..." Xu Yang ran over to us huffing and puffing like an angry bull. "My armor! Where is it..."

I glanced to the side and nudged the sack like stomach of the Heavenstealing Tiger with my feet. "Perhaps, it’s somewhere in there..."

"Oh?"

𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

Xu Yang’s eyes lit up as he swiftly opened the stomach up and was instantly greeted by a ton of glittering equipment.

......

"Goddammit! We’re rich..."

Gui Guzi, Li Chengfeng, High Fighting Spirits and the rest stared at Xu Yang as saliva dripped from their mouths.
