Apr 18, 2017
Proofreader: Jesse
After clearing the monsters for more than 10 minutes, Love You 59 Seconds said it was good enough and quickly kicked Xiang Zuo Kan and Qian Qian Junzi out of the team; then he opened the following function and dragged Xiao Wu. out of Mo Ya Cave.
{Nearby}[Xiang Zuo Kan]: !!!!
{Nearby}[Xiang Zuo Kan]: You actually T* me!! {Translator Input: T - internet slang for to kick; short for "Tī"}
Wu Han Ying was only able to read those two lines before being dragged away by Love You 59 Seconds, he was being taken all the way to the Suzhou Pet trainer NPC.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Wait a minute; let me check the growth rate
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Ok
Xiao Wu. waited on the side as he saw Love You 59 Seconds recalling the blue Crocodile and then after a few seconds he received a team chat message.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: We can go now
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Ok
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: What about the Crocodile?
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Just a common type
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Will find a better one another day
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Not good?
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Eh eh eh, then what about this one?
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Are you going to discard it?
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Discard
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Don't
Wu Han Ying hurriedly typed out his message on the keyboard fearing that Love You 59 Seconds would sell it to the NPC. After all he spent money on it, how could he just take it along for a few minutes and then sell it off to the NPC? It was such a waste.
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: I can take it along with me
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Don't discard it
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Wait for a bit
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Ok
With that said Love You 59 Seconds rubbed his hands together and then disappeared. Wu Han Ying moved his cursor over the other man's avatar and saw that he was in the teleportation process before arriving at Luoyang.
Less than two minutes later he heard a loud "ding" from the system notification, at the bottom it said that Love You 59 Seconds request a trade. Right then he saw the big Wudang was standing next to him again.
After opening the trading menu, Wu Han Ying saw there was a mutant Crocodile on the list.
Although it was not his first time trading, Wu Han Ying still got 囧囧 as he struggled with it for more than five minutes. Don't be quick to call him stupid, the system kept saying he failed to trade at every turn.
Finally after the trade successfully went through, he opened his pet tab and saw a blue Crocodile wagging its tail in the pet list; it's still unnamed and it's a mutant Crocodile.
Xiao Wu. then summoned the Crocodile. When the blue Crocodile appeared on the screen he looked at it closely, it's true that this kind of Crocodile's appearance is not easy on the eyes and it has a very weird walking posture. However, Wu Han Ying quite liked it; he mumbled to himself for half a day and finally came up with the name "Blue Skin Calcium"...
The crocodile's level was still low, so it had a low blood bar. Wu Han Ying opened the pet's information tab and took a look. He immediately recognized the Blood Sacrifice skill, it's the two chicken claws...and the other skill in there he wasn't familiar with.
Blue Skin Calcium stood swaying its body left and right next to him as he looked into his skill lot, one is the two chicken claws and the the other one looked like a puppy paw; when he moved his mouse over it, the name appeared as Advance Ice Burst.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: You can first take this one along
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Blood Sacrifice can be used to restore your mana bar {this mana bar is used for using skills, like I had explained in previous chapters Emei's are like a magician; and magicians are useless without the mana/magic bar}, just make sure to buy a lot of meat for it
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: This I know
The last time he saw the two chicken claws, he deliberately looked it up online; Blood Sacrifice skill is the ability to convert a fraction of the pet's blood bar into the player's mana points and then the player uses meat to restore the pet's blood bar. The Blood Sacrifice skill is an excellent one to have because the meat to restore the pet's blood is so much cheaper than the player's mana potion and the mana points being restored from it is higher than using the potion. But Wu Han Ying only clicked his tongue, to think up of such a thing, it's really cruel...
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: What's Ice Burst?
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: It's useless to other people
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: You can use it for running away
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Give it a try next time
The corner of Wu Han Ying's mouth twitched, his Shifu was being very thoughtful, he even prepared an escape route for him, really...
{Guild}[Love You 59 Seconds]: 7777
{Guild}[Love You 59 Seconds]: I'm going + {this "+" in this game means "who else"; so whoever is coming will say +1, +2, etc... as in "me too" or "me three" if you're familiar with the chatting world of abbreviation}
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Lao Da, didn't you say you won't go =.=
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: Didn't you say earlier don't do it
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: To level up your Crocodile
{Team}[Xiao Wu.]: =口=
When they arrived at the Chess Tournament in Suzhou, there was no one around. Xiao Wu. brought the Crocodile along and accepted the quest, then waited on the side. A little while later, a few guild members joined the team.
When high level accounts take lower level accounts to play chess, it is true that lower level accounts don't receive any experience; however, to level up the pets, playing chess is the best option. When in the chess board the pet will not be killed, so that along with double experience received at the entrance, after killing 200 chess pieces and one final BOSS it is easy to say the pet will raise up a few levels.
When they entered the chess tournament, Love You 59 Seconds did a trade request; he sent over two items, saying it is x2 experience and told him to use it. Wu Han Ying did not understand what he meant, but followed his words and consumed them all. Yuan Bao Shop {name of an NPC in the game, nothing important ^^} is selling x2 experience pills and x2 experience for the pets, so with double x2 experience the pet will receive x4 experience; leveling up a few levels is not going to be that difficult.
After they finished the chess tournament, Love You 59 Seconds logged out, saying that he has something to do.
Xiao Wu. said farewell to his Shifu, before thinking there is no other activity that he wants to do. Looking at his level 50 Blue Skin Calcium, its blood bar was greater than his previous squirrel pet. Then he thought about going back to do the Tricyclic since he wanted to try out the Emei's healing skill.
He went to the Tricyclic place to wait for a while, but no one came; it wasn't that surprising because there are not that many players at level 52 who want to go for F2.
{Translator Input: This dungeon is divided into levels from Easy (F1), Hard (F2), Challenge (F3). For this dungeon, F2 is from levels 52-61. Since this game is very hard to level up, most people don't go beyond level 30, so it makes sense that not many people are gathering at the meeting place. For those higher level players, they probably played the game when it was first published and more than likely played with their friends. Since the game has been released for so many years, it's rare to find a noob (like in Xiao Wu's case), so most people have their own solid team to help them out when they make a small account ^^}
He waited for another 15 minutes before someone finally sent over a team invitation, Xiao Wu. immediately accepted. He waited a little longer since the team only had 4 people. It was common knowledge that lower level players need to have a full team of 6 people to be able to finish this party quest, or they will fail; unlike a team of higher level players, where as long as they meet the minimum requirement of three people, they can easily clear the party quest in no time.
Maybe the wait for more players was too long; the system notified Wu Han Ying that the leader had left the team and Xiao Wu. suddenly became the new leader.
Wu Han Ying was shocked for a moment, he only cleared this dungeon a few times before; letting him be the leader for this dungeon is likely to wipe out his whole team. He realized that there wasn't even one good candidate to assign the leadership over to. He contemplated the situation for quite some time, when the team tab suddenly started flashing, indicating that someone was requesting to join the team.
Wu Han Ying saw the request and immediately accepted it which meant his team was now full with six people. However, once he opened the team tab to take a look, there were three Emeis in the team: Xiao Wu. level 53, one female level 55 and another male level 52. The rest consisted of Murong, Tianshan, and Voodoo (Xing Su).
{Team}[TEN]: Go in
Wu Han Ying 囧囧 looked at the team layout, he was once in a "chopper" team, without an Emei. {Translator Input: chopper team - a team without an Emei, mostly consists of higher levels with high damage and high defense classes, more details in the following paragraphs} Fortunately, their team had all Mingjiao {Pyromancer}, Shaolin, and Xiaoyao {Minstrel}; their attacks had high damages, so it was not that hard to clear this dungeon. However, he had never played with a team like this one. Even though their team had many Emeis, doing Tricyclic with one Emei is enough, more than that is a bit too many. Without Mingjiao and Shaolin, they can try their best to go through the dungeon, but without Xiaoyao, it would be very difficult to fight off Ge Rong {The last BOSS} of this dungeon.
{Translator Input: Let me explain a bit here.
The team he used to be in consisted of Mingjiao, Shaolin and Xiaoyao, they are classes with high damages where their attack is very high per hit; they can kill one monster per hit or two monsters per hit. Not to mention Shaolin and Mingjiao have higher HP, they can be the ones to attract the monsters to them; while the Xiaoyao with high attack rates will take the job of finishing the monsters off. And Xiao Wu at that time was a Wudang, even with a low level attack, he has others to cover it up for him, so it was more like he just sits there and plays LOL he didn't really have to do much attacking.
The team he is in right now consists of 3 Emeis, a Murong, a Tianshan and a Voodoo. The Murong and Voodoo are by default very weak classes, they don't have high damage and their defense is low too. As for the Tianshan, it has high damage but its defense is moderate, so far the Tianshan is the strongest one in this team as of right now; and the Tianshan's job is not to be the one attracting the monsters, this class's job is to kill the monsters. The three Emeis are useless, since Emei has super low HP and at the 50s level their healing skill is not that great either. So the Emeis are usually the first ones to die if they are not being protected by other classes. All and all, this team is meant to die soon, that's why Wu Han Ying felt like crying XDDDD}

Internet Slang Corner:
T/Tī/踢 - to kick; in game slang, it's faster to write abbreviation when you're ingame so you won't waste your time on typing and can focus on attacking the boss in the dungeon. My recommendation: Remember this letter for this story only ^^
