[Online Gaming] Love You 59 Seconds Chapter 3
Apr 18, 2017
Proofreader: Jesse
Wu Han Ying listlessly looked at the speakers commenting and saw that the Da Suan person was still energetically cracking up some one sided cursing. After awhile it looked like some people were getting impatient, so they spoke up for Love You 59 Seconds. The two sides were getting into a heated argument and kept pushing each other's speakers up, but Love You 59 Seconds still did not say anything.
{Speaker}[Qian Qian Junzi]: Bangzhu!!!!!!
{Speaker}[Mo Shan Xi]: Damn it! Lao Da (Boss), why did you throw the guild leader position to me?? Where did you go Lao Da? Don't scare us like this!
{Speaker}[Wo Ben Chunjie]: ...Bangzhu ran away?! =.=
{Speaker}[Qian Qian Junzi]: Bangzhu (guild leader), where are you?
{Speaker}[Yao Yue]: Bangzhu is on my team...playing chess...
{Speaker][Mo Shan Xi]: Tie him up and bring him to me!
Wu Han Ying took the money to go buy restoration pills and then he just stood swinging in Da Li since he was not in the mood to kill monsters in Cangshan. Wu Han Ying looked at the speakers spamming the whole [World] chat and noticed the cursing had lessen, but now more and more people had been calling Bangzhu Bangzhu like a mantra.
After reading those lines for a while, he realized he didn't understand what they were talking about, so he decided to move Little Wudang and teleport to Suzhou. Seeing that it was now 10 o'clock, Wu Han Ying thought he should team up with others to clear Tricyclic Dungeon. If his luck was good he might be able to pick up a deity scroll*.
[T/N: deity scroll- equipment blueprint - like a piece of scroll that is needed for crafting weapons, gear and/or accessories. When you're at a higher level in this game, it's always better to craft your own equipment because those will have a higher attack power than the ones you buy at the stores. Some equipment might not be available in stores and you have to craft your own. I think for this game, level 60 or above you have to craft your own equipment.]
The F1* weapon is the easiest one to craft. A diety scroll can be obtained in two ways: you can exchange 1,888 game points for three scrolls, or it can be obtained by doing the Tricyclic Dungeon. Wu Han Ying had once obtained a deity scroll from doing the Tricyclic Dungeon before but unfortunately he made a mistake. Now he was at a level 49 and only had two deity scrolls in his inventory...
[T/N: F1 - can be seen as white level, the most standard power in all equipment levels. Of course equipment ranges from level 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, etc. until max level like 120 I think at this time in the novel; but each equipment is divided into color: white, green, blue, purple, and orange (ranging from basic to rare)]
It was not that he did not have the 1,888 game points, but before when he did the dungeon Wu Han Ying's inventory was stuffed with restoration pills, bread buns and some equipments dropped by the monsters; really there was no space left. At the time he did not know the use of the deity scroll that was occupying space in his bag, so the result was he immediately looked left and right and proceeded to sell it to the NPC...
Later on his roommate told him that the scrolls were very useful, so he had to enter Tricyclic Dungeon to hopefully find it again.
At 10 pm not many people wanted to do the Tricyclic Dungeon, most of them were teaming up to fight against the Sect's Villains. Little Wudang ran to Suzhou and headed over to the dungeon gathering point but was stunned to find that not even one soul was around. She had no choice but to accept a daily quest and go to the nearby field to plant some wheat which has a short collection time. After Little Wudang planted the wheat she ran back to the dungeons gathering place and sat on the floor to meditate back some blood while she was waiting for others to form a party with her.
[T/N: Most people who play MMORPG must be familiar with meditation; it's where the character just needs to stand and not move, every thirty seconds or so the HP and MP bar will automatically fill up little by little. In this game, by meditating your HP points will be continuously refilled and at a faster rate]
After waiting for five minutes the system notified Wu Han Ying that the wheat was ready to be collected. So he moved Little Wudang to collect them and when she returned to the dungeons gathering place there were two more people on the map.
Wu Han Ying was a bit surprised that the male Wudang meditating in the area was actually Love You 59 Seconds with a male character holding a fan running and jumping two laps around him. Suddenly the the character with the fan jumped onto Love You 59 Seconds body twice and then stopped, but less than a minute later he began to jump again.
Wu Han Ying did not know what the man with the fan was trying to do, but he realized the character jumping had started to make him feel a bit dizzy. He thought that it was just like a flea hopping around on its host.
Little Wudang sat back down to resume filling up her blood bar when a chat box popped up on the top of the man with the fan, "Damn you! Come back and clean up the mess. You gave up being guild leader to me and ran away!"
Love You 59 Seconds was sitting still on the ground meditating, the other person continued to jump around endlessly. Wu Han Ying thought that his eyes must be perplexing when suddenly the man with the fan turned into a big yellow duck with a "pop" sound. The other person did not react and the duck continued jumping around and then started shaking its body left and right.
{Nearby}[Mo Shan Xi]: !!!
{Nearby}[Mo Shan Xi]: ...Lao Da, since when have you had such a sense of humor?
Wu Han Ying looked at the yellow duck and felt that it was a bit funny. It was not even the slightest bit adorable, actually it was very ugly especially the eyes.
He was still giggling to himself when he noticed the flashing notification in the party chat box; it was an invitation from a female level 45 Murong with the name "Summer Night Star".
He clicked on accept and quickly entered the party of two. Wu Han Ying looked at the screen, but he could not find Summer Night Star. Even when he maneuvered Little Wudang to move two steps he still did not see her. He was about to cursor his mouse over the name to find out where she was at when one more person was added to the party, it was Love You 59 Seconds.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Murong Sect's Villains is happening right now, want to go? No one is doing Tricyclic right now so the drop rate might be low.
{Nearby}[Mo Shan Xi]: My Bangzhu, you want to run away again? Where can you go with a group of two level 40+ members? {Translator Input: He means Wu Han Ying's level 49 character and level 45 Summer Night Star; with low level characters there are not that many dungeons for them to do. I would say one or two and it would take forever for them to level up T.T this game is VERY HARD to level up and the monsters in this game are not easy to kill. =.=}
Wu Han Ying saw that Summer Night Star did not say anything, so he typed in his reply.
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: I'm ok with anything
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Um
After Love You 59 Seconds typed out his reply he summoned his mount by half-bending and rubbing his hands together. After his mount appeared he sent out the follow request.
{Translator Input: If you're in a team in this game you can chose to follow the leader and you don't have to move your character, it will automatically follow wherever the leader goes. And of course, the leader can send out the follow request to the members and have them accept to follow; it's a very convenient function, just make sure your leader is not an ass, so they won't take you to places that the monsters are too high for you to handle, you might get killed and it's not a happy thing to happen}
Wu Han Ying clicked accept and Little Wudang was immediately being dragged to the teleport portal and a little after that she was being teleported to Murong Sect. Standing at the Murong teleport portal was a little girl wearing fashionable Murong clothing.
Love You 59 Seconds returned the leadership back to Summer Night Star after they arrived. Wu Han Ying then received a follow request from Summer Night Star. After he accepted Little Wudang was being dragged into Murong Villa.
As he watched Little Wudang trying to run on her feet to keep up, Wu Han Ying realized that riding a horse was so much faster than running on foot. He could not help but sigh.
After being dragged into the center of Murong Villa a lot of small green dots suddenly appeared on the map.
"Jiang Tan, you're also at Murong?" Wu Han Ying asked as he spotted a familiar Pyromancer riding a large lion standing by other people.
"Hey, aren't you doing Tricyclic? Why did you come here?" Jiang Tan glanced over at Wu Han Ying's screen.
"No one is at Tricyclic." Wu Han Ying saw Summer Night Star haul on her track. He was thinking it was a bit strange and asked, "What're you doing here?"
"Waiting for the next spawning*. Fuck, don't tell me you came here to kill steal the Villains?" Jiang Tan looked at the screen and saw the team of three people.
[T/N: Spawn - game slang - the next wave of monster/boss to be appeared.]
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Wait for a moment a new spawning is coming
Wu Han Ying read the line and realized it was true, they were here to kill steal.
"We've been waiting for such a long time. Don't be so ruthless like that." Jiang Tan shouted out and then said, "You're in a three person team?"
"Can a party of three not participate?" asked the puzzled Wu Han Ying.
"There's a level 90 in your team and you're just a level 40+. Don't you think there is a huge gap between your levels?" Jiang Tan moved the mouse over to look at each member's level, "Isn't that Love You 59 Seconds?"
"Yeah."
Little Wudang was still in following mode but was not in motion so Wu Han Ying stared at the screen with nothing to do. He suddenly remembered that he needed to submit his report by tomorrow afternoon and he still had not printed it out. So he minimized the game window and sent the word doc of the report over to the USB.
Right when he finished copying the report to the USB, the life was scared out of Wu Han Ying because he heard a loud "bang". Jiang Tan who was sitting next to him slapped his mouse quite hard.
"Man, what's your problem." The other roommates were also shocked.
Jiang Tan said angrily, "I did not get it! I've been waiting for such a long time, yet I still could not get it!"
Wu Han Ying maximized the Tian Long Ba Bu game window and when he looked at the screen he understood what Jiang Tan meant. Little Wudang was being teleported into Murong Sect's Villain party quest and standing next to her was Summer Night Star, but Love You 59 Seconds was nowhere to be seen.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Wudang, come here.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: You can't gain experience standing too far away.
Wu Han Ying opened the region map and saw Love You 59 Seconds, he clicked on the name and then ran all the way over to the character.
