……

This full set of leather armour had really good defense, it was almost around four hundred.  For an assassin or an archer, this was definitely a set of level 45 armour that could save their lives!

Moreover, the most valuable thing was that this set increased attack power.  Whether it was the assassin or the archer Job, they all increased agility to increase their crit rate, which caused them to lack in attack power.  This created a situation where the assassins and archers were only able to deal with cloth armoured classes.  Now that this set of leather armour actually increased attack by 15%, it was like I could give them coal on a snowy day and change their paths!

Other than this, the 50% increase to backstab success rate confirmed that this was a broken set for assassins.  Backstab was the ultimate killing skill for assassins, it could increase attack power by 100%, but the accuracy was less than 50%.  With this 50% increase, having a 75% chance of succeeding with a backstab was very amazing!

So I appraised the three other sets and lost a large amount of appraisal fees, losing over four thousand gold coins.  It was a good thing that these equipment were certain to sell, so I didn’t need to worry.

When I reached the square, I called out, “Ultimate level 45 archer and assassin equipment, selling the full set!  There is only a single set, highest bidder wins!”

When I put out the Outcast Set, I didn’t put a price and let the players see their stats.

In less than a few seconds, I was already surrounded by countless assassins and archers.  Especially at this moment, this Job that moved without being seen moved at a speed that was shocking!

Seeing the stats of the Outcast Set, a bunch of assassins started drooling.  Some people even gave up directly, “Damn!  Such a good set, it would cost at least twenty thousand gold coins.  I don’t have that much money, so I can only stare at it……”

As expected, when people started calling out prices, it went from one thousand gold coins to forty thousand gold coins.  Un, the current exchange rate meant that forty thousand gold coins was equal to sixty thousand RMB, this was already a high price!

So I decided to sell that set.  This set sold for this much, it was already at the level of a person’s yearly wage which really satisfied me.

After selling the first set, seeing the assassin players who were sad from not being able to buy the set, I had achieved the goal that I wanted.  I shouted out, “There’s still three more sets!  I’ll sell them here in half an hour!  The classmates that don’t have fifty thousand gold coins can go and make some instant noodles!”

After that, I sent a message to Ling Xue and logged off!

……

It was already very late when I logged off.  I heard my stomach growling when I took off my helmet, so I quickly went into the kitchen and took out the dishes that Qin Yun had prepared before throwing them in the microwave.  When I was filling the bowls with rice, Ling Xue came out of her room.

When I looked up, I was shocked.  Ling Xue was only wearing a green t-shirt that held her peaks high up.  There was a white pair of shorts that revealed the snow white legs.  The attractive and tempting figure of this young girl was revealed and it was beautiful!

Ling Xue came up in front of me and stared at me as she said, “What are you looking at?  I’m so hungry……”

I gave her a bowl of rice and said with a smile, “Ling Xue, your figure’s not bad!”

Ling Xue gave a proud smile and modestly said, “It’s alright!”

Then we gathered around the small coffee table, eating the food while praising Qin Yun’s cooking.

“Little fool……”

“Un?  What is it, little girl?”

“Un, big sister Qin Yun is so gentle and cooks this well, would you……”  Ling Xue stopped there.

I said with a smile, “Would I?”

Ling Xue bit her red lips and made up her mind, “Would you like her?”

I was stunned, “Why are you mentioning this?  For now, I won’t.  What, little girl, do you have an opinion?”

Ling Xue’s face turned red and she angrily said, “Why are you calling me little girl!”

“Then you’re calling me little fool, but I’m a very intelligent person……”

“I’ll call you what I want, what do you care!”  Ling Xue said in an unreasonable voice.

“Then I like calling you little girl!”

I looked over and my tone softened as I said, “I like seeing your unreasonable appearance……”

Ling Xue was angrily panting before she said, “Then, whatever you want……”

After eating for a few minutes, Ling Xue then said, “After you log on, help me get some material to make bread with.  Un, it shouldn’t take that long.”

“Material for making bread?  What is your skill level?  What level of bread can you make?”

Ling Xue said, “It’s only first grade bread right now.  I can’t increase the skill level without any materials.”

“Then, what materials does the first grade bread need?”

“Flour, milk, and salt!”  Ling Xue said with a smile.

I nodded, “Alright, after we log on, just wait ten minutes for me!”

“Un!”

Not long after, we finished eating and cleaned up the dishes before going back to our rooms to log on.

When I appeared, in the place that I had just logged off half an hour ago, there were many people who wanted to buy the Outcast Se that had appeared.  They all had red faces as they roared, “Where did that person selling the set go?  Quickly bring him over!  Father gathered all these gold coins, is he not going to show up?”

Visit readel.me for extra chapters.

When I appeared, several players surrounded me and said, “Brother, you’re finally back.  How many Outcast Sets do you have?”

I immediately shouted, “Level 45 ultimate assassin and archer set, selling full set, highest bidder wins!  There aren’t that many of them, so everyone please make your bids!”

This time, there were many more players.  Quite a few assassin and archer players had come after hearing the rumours, so the price of these sets had greatly increased!

In the end, the three Outcast Sets were sold respectively for sixty thousand gold coins, seventy thousand gold coins, and one hundred and ten thousand gold coins.  Of course. the person who paid one hundred and ten thousand gold coins had his head kicked in.

Like this, there were two hundred and forty thousand gold coins that appeared in my inventory.  Adding in the forty thousand I got for the first set, I had two hundred and eighty thousand gold coins in my inventory!

Looking at the exchange rate that was constantly changing, with the current price of 1.52, each gold coin could be exchanged for a dollar fifty two cents.  So I immediately exchanged the two hundred and eight thousand gold coins, leaving behind only a few thousand to buy potions with.  Just like this, there was four hundred and twenty thousand RMB that entered my account and adding in the money that was already in there, I already had around six hundred thousand gold coins!

I never thought that I would make this much money in less than a month playing a game.  Un, it seemed like I could buy a home and get a wife soon.

After a moment of joy, I looked at my level which was level 53 and 97% EXP.  I had already returned to the top three on the China rankings, being right in third place.  There were the level 55 Ling Yue and Ghost Fire in front of me.  Like this, all three of the top level players were from Xue Yue which really was good for advertising the guild!

Right now the White Bone Wilderness wasn’t public information yet and I was most likely the only person who had been there.  All the elite skeletons on the map had already been killed by me, so it would take several hours before they respawned.  There would also certainly be a boss in the depths of the White Bone Wilderness and I definitely couldn’t kill it alone.  It was fine, I’ll bring the girls from the studio over with me tomorrow!

So I immediately sent Ling Xue a message, “Ok, I’m done.  Where are we meeting?”

Ling Xue replied, “I’m on the east gate’s bridge, come over here!”

I immediately opened the party system and pulled Ling Xue into my team.  When I came out of the town and stepped onto the bridge, I saw the little swordswoman beauty waiting for me with a smile on her face.

Ling Xue said, “Did you see the Spirit of Grief official website?”

I saw her mysterious appearance and shook my head, “I didn’t.  I was busy with the game, so I didn’t have time to look……”

Ling Xue snappily said, “You don’t care about such a big piece of news, you really are something.  Forget it, I’ll be kindhearted enough to tell you!  When the first player reaches level 60, the first grade main city will be opened.  Other than that, the game will host a group PK event three days later called the King’s Return.”

“Group match?”

“Un, it’s five people to form a team and it will decide the king of the first grade main city.  Moreover, the prizes are very good.  It’s said that each member of the first place team will receive three levels and a lucky draw chance.  They might even obtain a piece of Dark Gold Equipment or a skill book!”

I was shocked, “What?  The prizes are that good!”

Ling Xue nodded with a smile, “Right.  So we need to increase our levels as soon as possible and then when the main city opens, it’s best if we can take first place in one of the two main cities that will open on the Chinese Server!  It would be a shame if someone else took the good prizes away!”

My heart surged with excitement, “Of course!  Our studio can put out five people, they won’t be that bad!”

Ling Xue revealed a faint smile, “Un, then first help me get the material for the bread!  Un, let’s first collect the wheat for the flour!”

I was a bit surprised, “Wheat?  Flour?”

“Un, let’s go.  You’ll know once we get there!”

So with Ling Xue leading the way, we headed into the Cool Breeze Forest.  As we gradually headed deeper, the monsters reached a terrifying level 70.  It was a good thing that it wasn’t hard for me and Ling Xue with our stats and these monsters only came out alone, so they were easy to kill.

After stabbing a Bloodthirsty Bear, I asked, “Ling Xue, there’s no high experience monster to fight here in the mountains, so could it be that we’re here for a date?  It’s not romantic at all!  Be careful!  There’s the poop of a bear over there, don’t step on it!”

Ling Xue moved back several steps before snappily saying, “Of course it’s not a date, che!  A date with you……We’re here to look for the wheat.”

“What?  Wheat?  Your wheat is in this kind of primitive forest?”

Ling Xue revealed a smile before excitedly saying, “If I say there is, there is, you don’t need to care!  Then again, there’s some wild wheat growing here and I’ve searched a long time to find this place online!  It even cost me a thousand forum coins!  Of course, we’re getting wild wheat because you can’t harvest the wheat in the farms, so players can only go into the wild.”

The beautiful girl raised her sword and said with an excited smile, “Little fool, look, there really is a bunch of wheat there!”

I looked up and as expected, in the direction that Ling Xue was pointing, there were mature ears of wheat.  It was really strange that it wasn’t eaten by the birds in this forest.

Ling Xue pulled me over and we saw the wheat dancing in the wind.

[Mature Wheat]  (Quality 25)

Can be used to make flour.

……

Ling Xue said with a smile, “Stop standing there, get to work!  This wheat doesn’t need a harvest skill to collect, so you just need to collect this wheat!”

I nodded and reached out as a “ding” sound rang out.

System notification: Congratulations, you have received wheat x25!

It turned out that the 25 quality meant 25 pieces of wheat!  There was a bunch of wheat in front of me, but this design fit the game.  A ear of wheat gave 25 pieces, if it was less, I really don’t know how long it would take me to harvest.

So I started working.  After around half an hour, we collected all the wheat in this forest and I had over 3000 pieces of wheat in my inventory.  Each 100 piece took up a single slot, so it used over 30 slots.

The little beauty Ling Xue was faster, gathering 5000 pieces of wheat in this short period of time!

“Let’s go back to the city.  We can go to the Sunset City workshop to process this wheat!”

Ling Xue used a City Return Scroll after this and I followed her.  The two of use appeared in Sunset City and spent several minutes to go to the workshop in the south, but we found a few NPCs that were grinding the wheat.

Ling Xue said with a smile, “Little fool, change the wheat into flour for me.  Quickly~”

I gave a nod and talked to the boss, choosing to process the wheat.  I found that each 10 pieces of wheat was a single bag of flour and it would cost 1 silver coin to process it.  I had obtained 300 bags of flower and only spent 30 gold coins to make it.
