Chapter 99: Skillbook â Rock Spikes
SpyingBlade again stuck to the lizard boss, his hooked blade flashing like a shadow. Ye Cangâs precise shot along with GreenDewâs magic missiles whistled through the air and ended its life.
âCongratulations. Youâve slain the Rock Lizard Boss â Olamus. Received 960 experience.â
Hearing the system message, everyone sighed in relief. The nearby FrozenCloud quickly intercepted Ye Cang who was making a break for the lizard bosses. FrozenBlood thought
not good
and also ran over. SpyingBlade was like a goalkeeper watching over the lizard corpses, he sheathed his weapon and made a Taichi gesture. âCome!â
âHumph~.â Ye Cang suddenly bypassed FrozenCloudâs charge and jumped over FrozenBloodâs sliding tackle. He sneered,
I wonât be intercepted every time.
He looked at SpyingBlade. This will decide victory or defeat!!!
A silhouette flew over. ThornyRose had charged over to intercept him, and tackled Ye Cang who was still in the air from jumping over FrozenBlood. She held onto him tightly as they hit the ground. SpyingBlade sighed in relief. The evil aura that guy had when he wanted to loot corpses was not normal. That sort of abnormal attachment, it made people break out in cold sweat.
NalanMoon stood in place, her head full of questions.
What happened? What are they doing?
She was unable to understand.
Little Ye Tian looked over and sighed.
Father has been intercepted, looks like his divine hand has been sealed again.
Due to Ye Cangâs brainwashing, she believed him without a doubt.
âCrazy old lady, release me!!â Ye Cang said looking at Lin Le who was running to the corpses. He reached out his hand trying to reach them.
ThornyRose was prepared this time. She tightly held onto his waist. However even like this, Ye Cangâs butt was like a worm, squirming around in her face.
NalanMoon sighed. Did they have to be so crazy every time. Zhang ZhengXiong looked at his own hand, why didnât he inherit the curse. He looked over at GreenDew. âIâm going to go loot the queen! Youâre not going to go stop me!? I wonât lose to my bro when to comes to being unlucky! Iâm really going to loot it!!!â
ââŠâ GreenDew glared at him.
Pitiful playboy.
Then she looked away, not giving him anymore attention.
Zhang ZhengXiong sighed. He looked into the light of the crystals, in thought.
Where are my lucky encountersâŠ
Lin Le indifferently looted the lizard bossâs corpse, grabbing a few things. Then he turned to the queen and looted a few more things. The whole thing seemed as leisurely as if he was taking a walk to second base, and then due to there being no third base, he went directly to home â in front of Ye Cang and ThornyRose. âBrother LilâWhite, Sister Rose, we got a heavy shoulder plate, a heavy belt, light leather gloves, a longsword, as well as a skillbook.â
ThornyRose released Ye Cang and took the equipment. The heavy shoulder, belt and longsword; three items which she really wanted, but she knew she could only have one of either the shoulder or belt. She decided to let him pick first. She looked towards Zhang ZhengXiong. âThe shoulders or the belt, which one do you pick?â
Zhang ZhengXiong decisively chose the shoulder plate, since he didnât have one yet. ThornyRose nodded, he didnât have one yet, while she had an excellent one. She swapped her belt with the new one she could barely equip. FrozenCloud didnât participate because she already had a masterwork quality belt.
Olamusâ Back (Masterwork â Rare)
Category: Heavy Shoulder
Requirements: 30 Constitution, 20 Strength
+6 Defence
+5 Constitution
+3 Strength
Olamusâ Rock Skin: Activate to reduce the damage of the next incoming attack by 20%. Cooldown: 1 hour.
ThornyRose sighed, it was really a top quality shoulder plate. It even had a damage reduction ability. However, this belt was also good, it had a fixed damage reduction. It couldnât even be compared to her old belt.
âI currently donât need the gloves.â Ye Cang sighed. He failed to loot again.
ThornyRose nodded. She let NalanMoon, FrozenCloud, FrozenBlood, and SpyingBlade roll for it. Lin Le currently didnât need new gloves, so he didnât even consider it. Moreover it would be a bit of a waste to give it to him. In the end, FrozenCloud got it.
All that was left was the longsword and the skillbook. They examined the skillbook.
Rock Spikes (2nd rank magic â Rare): Chant 3 lines (3 seconds), and cause three rock spikes to emerge in a target area. Each dealing 25 damage. Has a chance to knock up or stun on hit. Cose: 12 mana. Cooldown: 1 minute.
âThis skillbookâŠâ ThornyRose looked between GreenDew and Ye Cang, then sighed. âLetâs bid. Start at 3 gold.â
â3 gold.â NalanMoon was bidding for NalanBeauty who was a mage. Moreover, control skills were always in demand.
â4 gold.â ThornyRose wanted to get it for GreenDew. Afterall, she was a core member of her guild who was in the same town as her.
â6 gold.â Ye Cang directly and tyranically jumped the price.
âCan we pay in real money?â NalanMoon asked with a frown.
âFor items like this, itâs best to stick to using gold. After all, weâre not companions and weâre all from different backgrounds. Moreover, youâre not a mage, we canât give you priority.â ThornyRose also really wanted to pay in real money, but even then she might not be able to get it. That guy had too much gold. To bleed too much to get this, it wasnât practical nor was it worth it.
âPass.â NalanMoon nodded. She didnât complain. Not to mention that she wasnât a mage, this party had two spellcasters. Well one of them was a spellcaster that wasnât really a spellcaster.
â7 gold.â ThornyRose continued bidding.
â8 gold.â Ye Cang said, not letting up.
â9 gold.â ThornyRose said, clenching her teeth.
â10 gold.â Ye Cang shrugged indifferently. Afterall, he had money.
Little Ye Tian leaned over and whispered. âFather, go directly to 20 gold. After distributing the money, weâll only have pay 10 gold. If she can still bid after that, then let her have it. After all, if we pay out more than that, it wonât be worth it. There will be many skillbooks in the future. Although we have a lot, there will be a lot of uses for it in the next town. We should conserve as much as possible.â
Ye Cang thought of Little Ye Tianâs words, and faintly nodded.
ThornyRose furrowed her brows. She didnât know what that girl said. She had probably analyzed this skillbookâs market value, and had given him an accurate limit. She continued to bid. â11 gold.â
â20 gold.â Ye Cang retaliated.
What you get for biting my butt!
âYou!â ThornyRose resisted the urge to slap him. âPass.â
Ye Cang took the skillbook and gave her 10 gold to distribute to everyone. He only needed a few strong magics, after all, he wasnât an orthodox spellcaster. Moreover, magic to him was just a way to increase the number of things he could do in battle. Although this skill was not bad, but it would be better to save it for Nana, otherwise sheâd complain when she arrives. He put it away with a smile.
ThornyRose saw that he didnât immediately learn it.
What was he saving it for?
But she didnât ask. Finally, they bid for the brown longsword. In the end, she won it for 6 gold, and equipped it. Although it hurt her wallet, she was still somewhat satisfied. Mainly because this sword had a pretty good passive petrification ability, and it even gave defence. It was a rare defensive weapon.
TN: That battle took foreverâŠ
