Chapter 64: Who Is the Lucky Cat?
Two people looked at the introductions of the two skill books and fell into silence.
"Really strong."
After a long while, Xiao Feng managed to utter a sentence.
"Hmm..."
Xing Yun Miao had no idea what to say.
These two skills are the strongest for their professions, with a cooldown of up to seven days.
Their effect is undeniable—basically a full-screen instant kill!
"Too bad the mana cost is too high; we can't use it now," Xiao Feng said regretfully.
His is a bit better—2000 mana can be gathered quickly.
Xing Yun Miao's requires 5000 mana, which might not be reachable even at level 100.
"We'll learn it first; it'll surely be useful later," Xing Yun Miao said.
Both books are bound; not learning them still takes up inventory space.
The two used the skill books on the spot, adding the powerful skill to their skill bars.
"It's over, the inventory is full—let's head back to the main city."
Xiao Feng found his inventory couldn't hold the large amount of items dropped by Dai Fei'ona.
The loot previously obtained from the Abyss hasn't been stored yet; this pile of gear can only be temporarily tossed into the shared bag.
But Xing Yun Miao frowned and asked, "Can we return to the main city now?"
They looked around.
Most of Stone Town had been destroyed, and many NPCs had died.
Although mainly caused by Dai Fei'ona, Xiao Feng's later Gale Technique and Meteor Technique also caused some damage to the surroundings, not knowing if they'd be wanted.
The two were somewhat uncertain.
Just then, the frightened townsfolk in the distance also came to their senses.
Several badly wounded town militiamen ran up to Xiao Feng and Xing Yun Miao, gratefully saying, "Two brave warriors, although we don't know what just happened, we still want to thank you for saving us!"
"The evil female mage has been slain by the two brave warriors; we will jointly petition the City Lord for you to receive commendation!"
Xiao Feng was delighted upon hearing that.
Looks like we won't be wanted!
Moreover, the militiamen who previously had a bad attitude toward him have become much friendlier.
Clearly, doing good deeds still brings rewards!
"Let's go, back to the city."
After chatting a few words with the town NPCs, Xiao Feng and Xing Yun Miao crushed the Return City Scroll and directly returned to Storm City.
……
"Move, move, don't block the way!"
The patrol soldiers of Storm City were still as arrogant as ever.
Xiao Feng had long been accustomed to ignoring them.
The two headed straight to the market district, ran to the warehouse, stored various valuables, and also took out the items from the shared bag, allocating them to Xiao Feng.
This trip to Stone Town, although they didn't complete the second advancement, the gains were still extremely rich.
Both of their levels broke through the 80 mark, and the third advancement is not far off.
Xing Yun Miao tidied up her inventory and told Xiao Feng, "Dai Fei'ona is dead; I'm heading back to Moon City to change class first—let's play together again if we get the chance!"
Xiao Feng nodded and said, "Go ahead; I should also accompany a friend to the Moon Temple later. Speak well of me before your Archbishop—maybe he'll let me in and help me achieve the second advancement."
After several hours of team battles, his attitude toward Xing Yun Miao improved considerably; he no longer annoyed her as before.
After all, without this teammate's help, he would struggle to defeat so many powerful bosses in a row.
"No problem, I'm off now—see you~"
Xing Yun Miao left the party, bade him farewell, and departed Storm City.
Xiao Feng took various Epic Equipment that neither he nor his roommate could use and made a trip to the auction house.
Each piece of equipment was assigned a starting price according to its level and thrown to the system for listing.
As for Legendary and Mythic gear, he worried that players currently lack enough gold to afford them, so he didn't list them to avoid wasting listing fees.
Last time the items he listed on the auction house sold out; totaling the gold, his inventory now holds a cumulative 2.5 million gold!
"With so much money and nowhere to spend it myself, I should try to sell it..."
At this stage, players' main gold expenditures are on equipment and Blood Magic Potions.
For someone like him who needs neither Blood Magic Potions nor equipment, keeping just a few ten thousand gold is more than enough; hoarding too much risks loss if the gold depreciates.
"With 2.5 million gold and a Garrison Construction Order, we can pull off another big deal..."
Less than 24 hours had passed since the last cash inflow, yet he didn't expect to earn another big sum so quickly!
"Myriad Heavens" is practically a place where you carry a sack and pick up money!
Xiao Feng secretly gloated.
"Contact Old Li, sell the stuff, then go offline to rest a bit. After playing so long, I'm hungry..."
It's been about 36 hours since the server opened; in the real world, nearly four hours have passed, and it's already evening.
After logging off to eat and relieve myself, the in-game time will be about the next day.
The garrison defense battle in the Myriad Heavens campaign will likely start around then—perfect timing to log in and help them defend the city!
"Old Li..."
Xiao Feng opened his friend list and placed a call to Li Li.
As soon as he opened Li Li's profile, a flood of voice messages blasted him deafeningly.
Holy crap! Old Xiao, you're awesome—you can even take down a 200‑level mythic boss!
Quick, tell us what top‑tier divine gear dropped!
If you have a priest, definitely save one for me!!
Wait! What the hell, you're actually grinding the boss with a girl and didn't bring us!
This brother can't do it!
Speak up! Who is Xing Yun Miao? I want to duel her!
We agreed to be single together, but you secretly got a girlfriend—really hurts the feelings!
Hey hey hey, at least reply—picking up girls shouldn't keep you busy this long!
A string of voice messages started from when we just killed Dai Fei'ona, the latest one is from 1 minute ago.
Xiao Feng laughed and cried, quickly replied: "Just a regular teammate; we happened to hit the boss while doing a quest together. What are you guys up to? I got you some skill books and gear—come get them from the Stormwind City warehouse yourself."
"Damn! You finally bothered to reply! Stormwind City, right? We're coming right away—tell Xing Yun Miao not to leave; Old Zhang and I want to meet the sister‑in‑law!" Li Li replied instantly.
"Little brother, if you don't want it, don't come; if you spout nonsense again, I won't even give you a copper coin!" Xiao Feng said angrily.
"Uh, I was wrong, I was wrong, Xiao Feng bro, wait a sec, we'll be right away!" Seeing his tone turn bad, Li Li instantly wimped out.
"What an idiot..."
Xiao Feng said helplessly.
He went through his friend list once; he still had quite a few messages left.
Besides roommates Li Li and Zhang Fan, Zhan Tian and Gao Cai Shen also sent inquiries.
Mainly because Xiao Feng killed a 200‑level mythic boss, they all know such bosses always drop a land‑construction token, and they wanted to ask whether it could be transferred.
Originally Xiao Feng planned to have Li Li help find a buyer, but seeing Gao Cai Shen speak up first, he simply replied directly to that big boss's message.
"Boss Gao, I was busy just now and didn't reply in time—really sorry." Xiao Feng sent an opening line.
The other side quickly replied, "Understood, understood, after just killing a boss it's always like this—we need to distribute the loot first."
"Hmm, Boss Gao just said you want to act as an agent to sell my land‑construction token, right?" Xiao Feng got straight to the point.
Gao Qian, Gao Cai Shen laughed heartily and said: "Yes, Xiao Feng, you should know that our Treasure Merchant Association plans to stay long in the Realms. Now in the early game, to increase influence we must collect some valuable items to sell, to raise our fame. Everyone knows the preciousness of the land‑construction token; this one of yours should be the third in the game, very valuable. As long as you, Xiao Feng, hand it over to us for auction, we won't charge any fee."
