Chapter 648: Solo

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fatty’s family was facing some problems.

It was not anything too serious, just that one of his elders had fallen ill and they needed a lot of money.

In their past life, Fatty went around trying to borrow money, but he still could not get enough to pay for those exorbitant medical fees. In the end, Fatty’s second younger brother resorted to armed robbery but was caught and sentenced to jail.

At the time, Fatty regretted it immensely. He kept wailing that it was his fault his younger brother ended up like that. Later, Fatty’s younger brother had his wits beaten out of him while behind bars, and he needed a lot of money for his treatment too. That was why Fatty had no choice but to look for Li Yi again and ask for money.

Just then, Li Yi had just made it into the God Wars’ preliminaries. His victory would determine if he could live with Qian’er from then on.

Back then, Li Yi told Fatty, “Give me a few days, until I finish the competition!”

Back then, Li Yi did not explain it clearly to Fatty. He did not tell Fatty that he did not have money either, and by ‘a few days’, he meant that after the competition, he would sell the Emperor Equipment Set he spent several hard years collecting.

Fatty was anxious to treat his brother, but Li Yi could not hold off his matters with Qian’er either. Just like that, the two brothers officially split up…

It was all a mess, but at the very bottom of it, it all came down to money. In the past life, however, forget several millions, Li Yi could not even afford seven hundred thousands.

This life was not like the past one, though. In this life, Fatty himself had earned quite a decent sum, and with the sum Li Yi gave him on top of that, he was fairly confident that the tragedy from the previous life would not repeat itself again.

A few days later, Fatty called him and told him that his elder’s condition had stabilized. His tone was full of gratitude to Li Yi.

That was another problem resolved after a long time, so Li Yi felt as though a load had been lifted from his back. He was feeling so pleased that he even hummed as he ran quests in the game.

There was no shortcut when it came to increasing one’s Territory Level; the only way was to accumulate a vast amount of EXP. Right now, Li Yi was stronger than Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut in that he knew how to use Territory Release, whereas Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut did not. Fluttering Snow Purple Water Chestnut was stronger than him in that she had a very high Territory Level. According to Li Yi’s estimates, it was at least more than 30 levels.

If she could move freely within her Territory, it must mean that her Territory Level was at least twice that of Li Yi’s.

Sister Windcloud Nine entered the Pantheon Ruins and spent a whole ten days in there before finally emerging.

She managed to fix her half a Tuhr Sacred Sword, but this time, her good luck did not kick in. Sister Windcloud Nine failed to learn Territory Power.

“It’s way too hard. It’s really, really dark inside, so dark I couldn’t even see my own fingers. But I kept feeling like there were countless eyes just spying on me…”

Sister Windcloud Nine described the Pantheon Ruins in detail, scaring even her husband, Brother Windcloud Nine. In the end, it was Queen Jiao who did not hesitate to reveal the truth.

“Dark, my foot! The Pantheon Ruins are just littered with bones on the floor. Nine-nine, were you too afraid to open your eyes that you wandered around in the dark for ten days?”

Sister Windcloud Nine’s face turned beet-red, and she covered her face as she hid behind Brother Windcloud Nine. It was obvious that Queen Jiao had guessed right.

Brother Windcloud Nine sighed. “You wasted a perfectly good chance, sigh…”

“Sorry, darling.”

“What’s the point of apologizing? As punishment, massage my back for ten minutes.”

“Oh, okay…”

Inside the Soul Gate Instance Dungeon itself, Sister Windcloud Nine waved her little fists and started to massage Brother Windcloud Nine’s back.

“What a man!”

“So masculine!”

“Gah, I’m so jealous!”

Their party members could not help but gasp in admiration.

Li Yi did not run dungeons with his party, because recently, he was still doing quests. Still, he had nearly completed all the quests available across the three continents, and other than the daily quests, he could no longer find any new quests to do.

Since he had been doing too many quests lately, Li Yi obtained a new achievement, ‘Man of Steel’, which came with a reward of 10 STR points.

If he continued to do more, he would receive the title of ‘God-like Man’ and 300 STR points. However, that would take even longer. He would need to do 100 quests a day for five years to accomplish that.

Li Yi was pretty sure he did not have the resolve to do 100 quests a day for five years, so he could only wonder about it, not like he was actually going to do it.

That day, Li Yi ran to the Newbie Village area to do more quests. Thanks to Fengxi’s departure, the Newbie Village was now a pure land where little newbies ran around without a care or worry in the world. They no longer had to worry about being killed.

Soon after he turned in his quest, Confused Fox sent him a message.

“Lil Bro, we got a problem…”

“What’s the matter?”

“We were in the middle of a dungeon when Brother Windcloud Nine suddenly logged off mid-battle. And then Sister Windcloud Nine started crying, but when we asked her why, she wouldn’t tell us. She just keeps crying, sigh… w-what do we do now?”

“He suddenly logged off? Why’s Sister Nine crying? Did something happen in real life?”

“I don’t know either. I asked around, but no one knows Brother Nine’s number, and all Sister Nine can do now is cry. Just listen…”

“Weeeep…”

“…”

“I’ll come have a look…”

Li Yi teleported back to the city and used a teleportation door to reach Dragonbone Waste.

He summoned Onyxia and made a mad dash for the dungeon, but by the time he reached the dungeon entrance, Confused Fox had sent him another message.

“Lil Bro, Brother Nine’s back online, and Sister Nine’s smiling through her tears. It’s all alright now…”

“What did you say?”

“I said it’s all fine now. Brother Nine’s back online, and Sister Nine’s all cheered up. We’re starting the dungeon again. Sorry, Lil Bro, there’s one extra member in the party now, so I’m kicking you out now!”

Before Li Yi could reply, he received the system notification: [The party leader Confused Fox has asked you to leave the party…]

Li Yi was at an utter loss for words.

What on earth was that?”

“Bro, wanna try the Dark Paladin Instance Dungeon?”

Li Yi walked around the area and was so bored that he randomly called out to an Invincible Continent player.

“I just reached Level 100 but I don’t have any equipment or skills. No one wants me.”

“Come join my party.”

Li Yi offered the Wizard called Carefree Happy a party request.

The party system dictated that more than one member was required to form a party. If it was just one person, they would not be able to start a party. This was also why Li Yi needed another member, because unless he got another, he would not be able to start a party.

Carefree Happy was extremely excited. “Thanks, Big Bro. Where are the others?”

“There aren’t any others, it’s just the two of us.”

As Li Yi replied, he walked into the Dark Paladin Party-level Instance Dungeon.

“What? You wanna fight a 500-man Party-level Instance Dungeon with only two people? Are you for real?”

Carefree Happy was so angry that his face turned red. He cursed loudly and then left Li Yi’s party.

Li Yi was already inside the dungeon, so Carefree Happy’s dropping out did not affect him in the slightest. Since the party had been established, it would continue to exist until he died.

“Happy, whose party did you join?”

“An idiot Archer with a rotten old yellow bow. He said he was gonna fight a 500-man dungeon with two people, well, f*ck him!”

“You’re the idiot here, that was Dark Wing!”

Carefree Happy was stunned. “W-W-W-What?”

“That was Dark Wing, the Invincible Continent’s Number One Archer! You… You’re such a retard!”

When he heard what his friend said, Carefree Happy finally reacted and immediately called out in the Region Channel, hoping to rejoin the party.

Li Yi saw his call and gave Carefree Happy a party request.

“G-G-Great G-G-God, t-t-t-thank you…” Carefree Happy was stammering.

“It’s fine, I haven’t started fighting yet, so you can still make it in time.”

“Thanks! Oh yeah, Great God, my friends are online too, can we let them in as well?”

“Okay, I’ll give you the right. Add them in yourself.”

[Carefree Happy added Living the Life to the party…]

[Carefree Happy added Simple Life to the party…]

[Carefree Happy added Second String to the party…]

[Carefree Happy added Villager Ay to the party…]

[Carefree Happy added Qian Mengru to the party…]

[Carefree Happy added…]

“Stop, stop, stop…”

Li Yi canceled Carefree Happy’s right to add members.

“Bro, how many friends do you have?”

“Cough, not many. All of these people joined because they admire you, Great God.”

“…”

“That’s enough, we don’t need anymore.”

A bunch of players with ‘exaggerated’ equipment walked into the dungeon and immediately started squawking when they saw Li Yi, as though Li Yi was a monkey in the zoo…

Their equipment was exaggerated in that some of these players had the best Gold Quality equipment, others had White Quality equipment, or Blue, or Green, or a mix of the above. They had everything except Purple Quality equipment, of which they did not have a single item…

Li Yi could not help but shake his head. ‘This bunch of players hasn’t gotten far at all, they’re somehow even worse than I was in the previous life.’

“Great God, will we do?”

A shy young girl walked up to him. “Great God, my name is Qian Mengru, and I’m eighteen this year. I don’t have a boyfriend…”

“I’m Simple Life, a Violent Warrior and in terms of lifestyle class, I’m an Intermediate-level Ironsmith.”

“I…”

Like a class of students reporting their attendance to the teacher, each of them tried to introduce themselves, exasperating Li Yi.

He understood exactly how these players felt. It was clear that they were not doing too well, so they wanted to network with him.

“Don’t worry, everyone, just send me a friend request. We could start a party again next time.”

“You’re too kind, Great God!”

“Great God, I love you…”

The players cheered loudly.

“Alright, you can stop flattering me now. We’re gonna start fighting soon.”

He did not give them any pre-battle instructions at all. Instead, Li Yi took his Orange Quality Bow and ran straight for the Bloodseeker.

The Dark Paladin Instance Dungeon only had one boss, so they just had to beat that to pass.

Should he teach these players the battle strategy? By the time he did, the dungeon’s cooldown would have reset. Yes, Li Yi knew how to defeat many dungeons, but even he could not instantly forge a party with zero experience into a team of elites.

What he was trying to do now was very simple. He was going to kill the Bloodseeker boss all by himself.

“You guys can just stand by and watch. There’s no need to help.”

Li Yi warned them and threw a Hunt Target at the Bloodseeker before drawing his Powered-up Arrow. He then repeated this five times.”

After his latest bout of training, his Territory Skill, Infinite Burst, could now be stacked five times over.

“Tch-psh-bish-tst-pst-brrrr—”

Decuple Powered-up Arrow!

The Spinning Arrow flew at the Bloodseeker, engulfed in flames, aiming straight for its chest.

“Smack!”

He dealt over ten million in damage with one blow!
