Chapter 21: Old Man’s Favor

Just as he logged in the game, Lu Yang’s mailbox ringtone constantly played . He opened to take a look and found that it was a message from the Twilight Old Man .

“Brother, can I ask you a favor? I have yet to acquire all the materials you require, but I’m trying to conquer a dungeon here . Can you give me the shield ahead of time?”

Lu Yang did not expect that Twilight Old Man will put down his body to ask him for help . This was the boss of a guild of 30,000 members . In the future, he would become a well-known commander of the nation war . Yet he himself asked for help .

“What’s the matter?” Lu Yang returned a message .

In a dungeon, the Twilight Old Man fought the boss of the first level for the third time . The vice president, Alcoholic Coolbreeze said, “Boss, we can’t fight this way . Without a good shield, I can’t act as the MT at all . ”

MT refers to Shield professions or Shield Knight, who are the main players that are able to sustain the agro from a monster when conquering a dungeon .

“I know that . But I can’t buy it, since Lu Yang has yet to come online . What happened to Dominator’s side, till how much did they conquer?” The old man said .

Alcoholic Coolbreeze said, “He had already fought the second level dungeon boss . ”

“Damn it . ” Twilight Old Man couldn’t help but swore and said, “No wonder this grandson didn’t steal a shield from me this morning . He had already beaten the first boss . ”

“Boss, we can’t let Dominator conquer the first dungeon . This achievement will be announced in the whole game . The impact this will have on the future recruitment of players will be too great . ”

“I know . ” Twilight Old Man was also worried, but he couldn’t help it . At this moment every major guild was trying to grab the first achievement . As long as there was a shield out, he would send his men to find and buy it . Being able to meet Lu Yang was very lucky .

While he was worried, he received a message from Lu Yang that he had logged in .

{{Brother, you are finally online . }} Twilight Old Man called excitedly .

{{Is something wrong?}} Lu Yang asked .

{{Don’t mention it . }} Twilight Old Man hurriedly told about the setbacks he met in his quest of conquering the dungeon .

{{Who knew the dungeons of <Second World> are so damn difficult . our 20 most elite players can’t even kill the first boss of a normal level 3 dungeon . You say how tough it is?}} The old man said .

Lu Yang did not feel it to be unexpected . <Second World> was designed in such a way in order to not allow players to level up quickly . This was also to reduce the depreciation time of equipment . On one hand to restrict the production of equipment and on the other hand, to improve the difficulty of dungeons . A normal level 3 dungeon not only required 20 players to work together, but also required a certain equipment base, especially the main force MT . One can’t simply clear a dungeon with the lack of proper equipment .

{{I can give you the shield first . I’ll be at No . 7 Hotel in Dongcheng District, you can meet me here . }} Lu Yang said, he believed that the old man would not renege on his own words .

Twilight Old Man was still worried about Lu Yang’s disagreement . He had been worried about using money as a guarantee to make him agree . But he felt that Lu Yang was not a person who cared about money . If he used money to convince him, Lu Yang would definitely disagree, but he was afraid that his words would not be enough to make Lu Yang agree . He didn’t think that Lu Yang believed in his character so much . He agreed with no need of a collateral .

{{My brother, thank you for your help this time around . I owe you a big favor . If you need this brother’s assistance in the future, I will do my best to help . }} Twilight Old Man said .

Lu Yang wanted to hear this sentence . He said, {{Alright, I will note it down . }}

{{Just wait for me there, I’ll send someone right away . }} Twilight Old Man turned to his vice chairman, Alcoholic Coolbreeze, and said, “Go to the No . 7 Hotel in Dongcheng District . Lu Yang will be there . He agreed to give us the shield first . ”

“Great, I will go . ” Alcoholic Coolbreeze activated a Return Scroll and flew back to the main city .

Return scrolls were rare items . It was not sold by the system and could only be obtained occasionally from the drop of small group of monsters . The destination place the Return scrolls returns to was not decided by the player but the system designate it at the birthplace square as a default .

It was only two minutes from the square to the No . 7 Hotel in Dongcheng District . Before long, Lu Yang saw a young man running up to him . He remembered that this man was the player who followed behind Twilight Old Man in the morning .

“Master, I’m coming . ” Alcoholic Coolbreeze shouted .

Lu Yang beckoned, waiting for the other party to come near . He asked, “You are Alcoholic Coolbreeze?”

“Yes, it’s me, Twilight boss sent me here . ”

As he spoke, Lu Yang sent out a transaction application . He saw the other party’s name was correct and put the young dragon shield on it .

Alcoholic Coolbreeze’s eyes widened as he saw the attributes of the dragon shield . He quickly accepted the transaction and said, “Master, thank you very much . With this shield, we can finally hope to conquer the dungeon . ”

Lu Yang smiled and said, “I wish you success . ”

“Thank you for your kind words . ” Alcoholic Coolbreeze quickly rushed back to the dungeon after leaving his thanks .

Lu Yang sent away Alcoholic Coolbreeze and opened his interface . In the game friend search column, he entered the helmet code he bought for Xiao Liang .

Originally this helmet code was for the convenience of players to find each other . They did not expect that many players in order to meet new friends would randomly input helmet codes . In the end, this function had become a new friend software .

After entering the code “0019852476”, Lu Yang saw a name called the Black Armor Warrior .

“This brat is still the same . ” Lu Yang thought and smiled . Xiao Liang had used the exact same name in his previous life .

At this time, Xiao Liang had already dashed to the monsters’ area outside of the main city and joined the troop of kill stealing players . In the second day of the game, not only the quantity of players in the level 1 wild monster area did not decrease, instead it had increased a lot .

As an ambitious young man, when Xiao Liang heard that the game was going to be released, he fantasized about his future . He secretly vowed that if he got a game helmet, he would work hard to level up . And if he had the gam e helmet, he would be a golden expert .

But now, looking at the level 1 monster area on the map, there were four platers standing on the green grass on every square meter . Just a monster alone was suffering from six to seven wooden sword cuts simultaneously . Not only one had to fight the monster but must desperately rely on luck to get the last hit . If he fought from far away, he wouldn’t be able to hit it . If he couldn’t hit it, he wouldn’t be able to kill it . To level up by a level, he needed to kill hundreds of these wild monsters . As he thought about it, Xiao Liang mood became depressed .

“Why is it so difficult?” Xiao Liang gloomily opened the ranking list . As he saw that the top player named Lu Yang had reached level 4, he gave out a sigh .

“Sigh, I really want to know how did this person levelled up so fast . ” Xiao Liang thought .

At this moment, a friend request notification appeared, and this player’s name was Lu Yang .

Xiao Liang looked at the names of the two players and found that they were exactly the same . He hurried to confirm them and called excitedly, {{Boss, is that you who are the first in the ranking list?}}

Lu Yang smiled and replied, {{Of course . }}
