Chapter 42 The Blessing of Wind

After a "ding," the screen displayed an explanation for the reward.

The system announced: Player Qian Li Zui has eliminated a total of 400 PK points in wanted missions.

This was an extraordinary and outstanding achievement, one that only Gu Fei could accomplish. The system clarified in parentheses: the corresponding PK points deducted when washing PK are not included in the statistics.

If it weren't for washing PK, no one would even do wanted missions, not even in Moonlit City. Who else could accumulate 400 PK points besides Gu Fei, who treated wanted missions as a primary form of entertainment?

Finally, the prize was announced: Blessing of Wind.

Gu Fei had reason to believe that many pieces of equipment were hidden within these wanted missions, all bearing the ridiculously cliché name "Wind Chaser." But cliché it may be, he still had to check out the newly acquired equipment.

The Blessing was a necklace.

Stats: HP +60, Max HP +35%...

These stats were exactly the same as the Wind Chaser Boots' movement +60 and movement speed +35% in terms of data, fully demonstrating that they were a series of products.

The relationship between HP and Constitution was fundamentally the same as the relationship between movement and Agility.

Mages had weak HP growth, at 0.85. The initial HP was 85, and for every point of Constitution added, HP increased by 0.85. Gu Fei was now level 40, and besides the automatic 40 points from leveling up, he hadn't added any Constitution. His total HP was 119. When equipped with Eddie's Emblem, he gained another 6 points of Constitution, bringing his total HP to 124. Parallel World never displayed decimal points, and whether they were involved in combat calculations was something that needed to be studied by experts like You Ge, a game theory expert, mathematician, and scientist.

Now, with the Blessing of Wind equipped, Gu Fei's maximum HP could reach 248. It had directly doubled, and even a fool knew that the Blessing of Wind, like the Wind Chaser Boots, was an incredible item.

Unfortunately, Gu Fei didn't really care for it. As a character who hadn't truly died in the game yet, Gu Fei didn't place much importance on a lack of HP. He was more troubled by a lack of mana. It would have been great if this item increased mana. Gu Fei murmured to himself, looking at the necklace in his hand.

As for HP... basically, no one could hurt Gu Fei. What was the point of having a lot of HP? Thinking this, Gu Fei accepted another mission and went out again.

Of course, he had to try out the new equipment. Gu Fei put on the Blessing of Wind, but the sudden surge in HP didn't bring any noticeable changes. It's useless, useless, Gu Fei thought, shaking his head as he headed toward his target.

Nothing else happened that night until Gu Fei logged off. The next day, Gu Fei logged in earlier than usual. First, he was attracted to the PK-happy criminals in Moonlit City, and second, he wanted to check on what was happening with Mang Mang as early as possible.

He logged in and opened his friend list. Seeing that Fireball, Yuezuka Tsukiko, and others were online, he quickly sent them messages and learned that they were all well and that nothing had happened. Fireball even tried to invite Gu Fei over, claiming that they had discovered three extremely hot girls and were generously inviting Gu Fei to enjoy them together. Gu Fei declined with a sweat-soaked brow.

After that, he naturally focused on completing wanted missions. After doing a few, it was almost seven o'clock, and Han Jia Gongzi sent a message summoning him. He went to the dungeon entrance to gather.

Today, there was naturally no tension like yesterday. Everyone stared half-dead at the Sword of No Oath on the steps. Sword of No Oath originally wanted to say a few more words, but after seeing the scene, he decided to give up. He turned around and simply went to negotiate with the NPCs, quickly earning the players' praise.

The players continued on their way. The headcount had been checked by Dao Ying Nian Hua and the mercenary团 leaders before seven o'clock. Moonlit City was indeed a city of trouble. Even though they had only stayed for two days, many incidents had occurred. Most of them involved players from different mercenary团 fighting over leveling spots.

Because the players from the Zongheng Sihai guild couldn't register in other main cities during the mission, and would return to Cloud City upon death, Sword of No Oath and other leaders repeatedly told everyone to keep a low profile and forget that they were the number one guild in Cloud City. Looking at the situation now, the effect was good. Many players from other mercenary团 had suffered injuries, but Zongheng Sihai had no losses. Sword of No Oath and the others secretly smiled.

Those Cloud City players who had been bullied while leveling felt a sense of camaraderie and complained about the violent residents of Moonlit City, reminiscing about the good life in Cloud City. In short, they couldn't stand being in this place for even a minute longer.

People always like to compare. During the exchange, these players began to compare who had suffered the greatest losses in Moonlit City. After comparing, Yuezuka Tsukiko's "Great Hunt" mercenary团 took the lead. Of their 40 members, 22 had died and lost levels in the past two days. Whether in terms of proportion or total number, they were the best.

"Bro, you're strong. How many fights did you get into?" someone exclaimed. Most other players just had small friction over leveling areas, and at most, one or two would die. Some would even retreat as soon as they saw red names. Dying five or six times meant they had been in five or six conflicts over two days, which was already quite difficult. But Yuezuka Tsukiko's team had managed to lose 22 people. Following that logic, they must have been in 22 conflicts, which was incredible.

Yuezuka Tsukiko was not only good at being sneaky, but also good at boasting. He put on an indifferent face and said, "It's nothing, just a little friction with the Ten Guild Alliance here."

Everyone was moved, but quickly began to laugh at Yuezuka Tsukiko's bragging.

The Ten Guild Alliance of Moonlit City was well-known, even to players who hadn't come to Moonlit City. This was currently the largest player group in the game. Although it consisted of ten guilds, it was essentially a large guild with over 4,000 members. Top guilds like Cloud City's Zongheng Sihai, with 750 members, could only call themselves small in comparison. Yuezuka Tsukiko's small mercenary团 of 40 members had conflicts with them, yet they could still safely leave Moonlit City. No one would believe that.

"Whatever, don't believe me then," Yuezuka Tsukiko said, waving his hand without forcing the issue.

The players scattered with laughter, and the topic ended there. Along the road outside the city, the group gradually entered a small village. Gu Fei became excited and said to the five members of the elite team, "This is Nightglow Village!! My quest chain was completed here."

"Oh, this is the village you mentioned where half the villagers are werewolves?" You Ge quickly took out his notebook to gather information on the ground.

"Yes, yes!" Gu Fei pulled You Ge to the edge of the group, pointing at the NPCs by the road, wanting to point out one of the werewolves for You Ge to see. When Gu Fei first came to Nightglow Village with the quest, the ordinary villagers and the werewolf villagers treated him very differently. To this day, he still remembered some of the human-like werewolf villagers. But as he pointed them out one by one, he couldn't find the werewolf villagers he had in mind. You Ge was about to start recording in his notebook, but Gu Fei was humming and hawing, not saying anything. You Ge looked up at him strangely when someone suddenly jumped in front of them with a "hey."

"Little Rain..." Gu Fei greeted.

Rain in June also seemed excited and said to Gu Fei, "We're back in this village again!"

"Yeah!" Gu Fei replied, his eyes continuing to search around.

"Do you remember the secrets of this village?" Rain in June said mysteriously.

"What secrets?" Gu Fei asked, surprised.

Rain in June leaned in and whispered in his ear, "There are werewolves!"

Gu Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He realized he had fallen into Rain in June's intelligence trap again. In some ways, Rain in June was as scary as Han Jia Gongzi. Because how profound or how simple a person's thoughts were, those who hadn't reached their level might not be able to comprehend them. Gu Fei felt that he was closer to Han Jia Gongzi, but very, very far away from Rain in June.

"What, you don't remember?" Rain in June used her intelligence to assess Gu Fei. Seeing that Gu Fei hadn't said anything for a long time, she asked.

"I remember, I remember. I'm just trying to find a werewolf," Gu Fei said.

"If you want to find a werewolf, look for me!" Rain in June patted her chest.

"Huh?" Gu Fei was puzzled.

Then Rain in June took out her quest notebook from her pocket and turned to the Nightglow Village chapter in the Moonlit City section, specifically the werewolf distribution section.

"Uh, coordinate xxxx, xxxx! Villager Finn, werewolf," Rain in June muttered, looking at her feet and stepping on the coordinates, deviating from the direction the team was heading.

After a few steps, Rain in June had already stood on the coordinates she had recorded, but after looking around, she walked around in circles. There were no villagers in this coordinate area at all.

"Ah... what's going on?" Rain in June's pure eyes flickered with confusion.

"Look at the next one!" The kind-hearted Gu Fei pointed to the next one recorded in her notebook.

"Coordinate xxxx, xxxx. Villager Sami, werewolf," Rain in June muttered to herself as she started stepping on the coordinates again, but ended up in another empty area.

"Ah ah!" Rain in June didn't wait for Gu Fei to speak and went straight to the next one. This time, there was someone in the coordinate area, but it wasn't the werewolf villager that Rain in June had recorded. Rain in June spoke to this NPC five times, but the NPC insisted his name was Lied, not Kundi as Rain in June had recorded in her notebook.

"Did I... remember it all wrong?" Rain in June scratched her head. As someone who often made mistakes, she didn't have much confidence in herself.

"Probably not," Gu Fei said.

"Then what's going on?"

"It seems like the werewolves are all gone," Gu Fei said.

"The werewolves are all gone?" You Ge, who had been following the two of them, repeated.
