Chapter 704: Chatting With the Female Tycoon


Translator: Halcyon Translations Editor: Halcyon Translations

Lu Li suddenly realized that it was a Dwarf who had given him this item and almost laughed out loud .

Dwarves were small and players often joked that they could only attack their knees . A Dwarf Thief could rarely attack the back of a tall target, so they had to find other weak areas .

In fact, the Thief didn't actually have to specifically attack the back . As long as the attack was coming from behind, it would work . Asking a tall Night Elf like Lu Li to attack the back of the knee was a little difficult .

The second effect was much more normal .

Bloody Slaughter was a standard aggressive effect, but was a bit more straightforward and brutal . It used 20% of your own HP to take away 40% of your target's HP . The conversion would be completed instantaneously and was unaffected by Attack and Defence stats .

The only downside was that this skill couldn't kill a player . If your target was below 40% HP, you couldn't instantly kill them as they would be left with at least 1% HP .

Even so, Lu Li was already content . Dawn wouldn't allow more damage, as this would break the game's balance .

It wasn't clear what item Water Fairy had received, but based on her expression, it must have been good .



Lu Li discovered that Water Fairy laughed often but didn't smile very much . Most players also didn't dare to look directly at her face, which was why she had acquired this reputation of being a cold goddess .

When she laughed, her lips curled and her eyes closed slightly . The rays of sunshine landing on her face allowed Lu Li to clearly see the smile of the female tycoon appreciating her equipment .

"What are you looking at?" Water Fairy asked when she noticed Lu Li's gaze .

"I've noticed that you're pretty good looking," Lu Li answered honestly . Instead of looking away, he stared right at her, like he had nothing to lose .

"Pft, how would you know what looks good and what doesn't?" Water Fairy mocked .

The man standing in front of her was the most insensitive person she knew . When he transformed into a normal person, or acted like a normal person, it was just to gain a girl's favor…

But then again, if Lu Li was a normal person, he would be affected by her beauty . She probably wouldn't be so close to him otherwise .

"My sister is very attractive," Lu Li said in a triumphant tone .



"Why don't you talk about the three landladies that you live with?" Water Fairy asked, then stared at Lu Li for a moment and continued, "You poached them from our guild . Don't you know that the law still prefers monogamous relationships? Which one are you going to pick?"

"Please, we're just renting a house together…"

Lu Li was sweating . These were the landladies she was talking about; she didn't need to be so vulgar .


"You're the owner of a big guild now . Why are you still renting a house?" Water Fairy asked . The two of them stepped out of the town and quickly arrived at a place where level 45 Black Bears spawned . While they trained together, they kept on chatting .

"Because I had to pay for my sister's treatment," Lu Li answered . He thought about it for a moment and if it weren't for his sister's illness, he would have solved the house issue . Lu Xin was someone who was particularly valued at home .

"What about now?" Water Fairy asked while observing Lu Li's movements . She and Lu Li both often stole tricks from others by watching them .

If Lu Li was paying attention carefully, he would have noticed that Water Fairy had embarked on a completely different path from his previous life . She should have taken the path of winning by relying on good equipment and attack speed . However, she had now been influenced by Lu Li, and was slowly copying Lu Li's style . She took priority in attaining a high degree of Skill Completion, with only a minor focus on attack speed .

However, even if she did decide the take the path of her previous life, she could probably still be an expert . With that being said, if she went up against another evenly-equipped player, the gap would be clearly shown .

"I still need to pay you back . If we do well in the league, then I'll almost be there . I should be able to buy a house next year, but I'm actually living quite comfortably right now," Lu Li said then added, "Xin Xin really likes the current situation . "

"You don't have to rush to return my money . You can use it first; I'm not worried about your ability to repay me," Water Fairy said .

"I don't like owing other people money," Lu Li refused as he shook his head, even though he knew that Water Fairy was sincere and she didn't need the money either .

"It's up to you . If there were three beautiful women living with me, I wouldn't want to move either," Water Fairy joked .

Upon hearing this, Lu Li decided to change the topic .

"Does your guild have any thoughts on this league? It looks like the size of this competition will be a bit small . "

Drizzle Court had a lackluster performance in the first competition because they hadn't paid attention .

In fact, no guild expected the first competition to have such a strong influence . It almost overturned the entire gaming circle, set countless records and improved the industry as a whole .

The biggest beneficiaries of the first competition were Seventh Heaven and Blood Red War Flag, followed by Glory Capital, who were the favorites of this one .

"You should participate," Water Fairy suggested casually . She didn't seem to care much about it .

"We plan to fully prepare ourselves . This is our first event as a guild, and plus, there might not be any major competitions after this one for a while . "

Lu Li didn't mention anything about the fact that the league had already gone international . The next league had already begun their global campaign . The national team had gathered major club experts from different countries all over the world .

"You won the Shadow Cup and stole the limelight of the Magic Cup . Now, you want to compete in the League . "

Water Fairy didn't really understand Lu Li . Even though Ruling Sword was in the building phase, they didn't need to be so aggressive .

The Chinese game circles often lived a philosophy of being tastefully ordinary to ensure long term survival .

"If I said that the league would go international, would you believe me?" Lu Li couldn't explicitly talk about it, so he vaguely referenced it . There were many games that went international, but because of the short life of virtual reality games, none had reached this milestone yet .

"You really think quite highly of Dawn . "

Water Fairy shook her head disapprovingly, but she was actually uncertain about Lu Li's words .

"Oh yeah, Xin Xin and I want to return to Jiangnan," Lu Li mentioned, not wanting to say much else . If Drizzle Court wasn't too keen on participating in the League, then that would mean one less opponent for Ruling Sword .
