Hu Die Lan
Chapter 67 The Final Reward
With the Wolf King's Tooth in hand, Gu Fei visited the tall and mighty werewolf again.
"I've already taken care of him," Gu Fei said, handing over the Wolf King's Tooth. "He was using this to transform into a werewolf and deceive you all."
The large werewolf took it and examined it, exclaiming in surprise, "The Werewolf Lord! No wonder he had such power."
"Luckily, luckily..." Gu Fei said. He hadn't really witnessed the Werewolf Lord's power. He might have had a chance last night in the church, but the guy ran away as soon as he got injured.
"You've helped us and haven't exposed our identities. We're very grateful," the large werewolf said. "To avoid similar chaos, would you mind entrusting this Wolf King's Tooth to us?"
"Sure," Gu Fei confirmed.
"To express our gratitude..." The large werewolf turned and rummaged under his bed. Gu Fei's heart sank. The village chief at least kept his item in a cabinet, but this werewolf just tossed it under the bed? What could it possibly be?
When the werewolf turned back around, Gu Fei's eyes lit up.
The werewolf was holding a sword. The blade had a purplish hue, but it was shrouded in a layer of black light. Visually speaking, it looked like a top-tier item.
The werewolf offered it, and Gu Fei took it.
Dark Night Luster Sword.
The stats made Gu Fei jump in surprise. This sword not only had high physical attack power, but it also possessed magical attack power, even higher than the staff that July had given him.
Staves were primarily focused on magical attack power and would only list a symbolic physical attack. But weapons like swords, daggers, and knives never symbolically listed any magical attack. This sword not only had magical attack, but it was also very high.
Looking further down, there were two more lines of data: Sword Coefficient 170%, Magic Coefficient 170%.
Further down: Critical Hit Chance 10%, Critical Hit Damage 10%; Agility +20, Intelligence +20, Attack Speed +20%, Skill: Dark Night Luster (Requirements not met, unable to use).
A top-tier item, absolutely top-tier! Even if Gu Fei was a noob when it came to games, he could tell how powerful this sword was from the added attributes.
Sword Demon's Frost Memories was the most impressive weapon he had seen so far, but it paled in comparison to this sword.
No matter how strong Frost Memories was, it was just a gold-tier equipment, while this Dark Night Luster Sword was a purple-tier equipment.
Purple-tier equipment was the strongest single-attribute equipment in Parallel World. Only green-tier equipment could surpass purple-tier equipment. But green-tier equipment were all sets, and they had to be collected and their hidden attributes activated to unleash their full power. In terms of a single item, they were still inferior to purple-tier equipment.
"Look! Look at my sword!" Gu Fei excitedly shoved the sword into Xiao Yu's hands for her to admire.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Xiao Yu shouted as she looked at it, finally asking, "Sword coefficient, magic coefficient, what do those mean?"
"I don't know!" Gu Fei said. "But they must be amazing."
"Why?"
"Because I've never seen those words on a weapon before." Gu Fei took out Baptism of Fire and checked it again. There were definitely no "coefficient" words.
"So awesome!" Xiao Yu returned the sword to Gu Fei. "I want to do a quest like that too."
"There will be opportunities!" Gu Fei patted Xiao Yu.
"I've finished all my quests," Xiao Yu said. The two of them left the room together. As soon as they stepped outside the door, a white light enveloped Gu Fei.
"What's going on!" Xiao Yu was shocked and drew her axe.
"Don't panic!" Gu Fei quickly shouted. "It's okay, I just leveled up."
"Why would you level up for no reason?" Xiao Yu asked.
Gu Fei glanced at the system message. Just as he stepped out of the werewolf's room, the system informed Gu Fei: Quest chain "Eddie's Usury" completed, completion rate 95%, received experience and gold. The experience directly leveled Gu Fei up to level 31.
"So much experience!" Gu Fei was dumbfounded. The rewards for this quest chain were too generous. Counting the silver plating on the village chief's Baptism of Fire that increased its attributes, it was like getting four pieces of equipment. He didn't expect so much experience at the end. But the money wasn't much. Gu Fei looked at his wallet and only got 50 gold coins.
"Of course there's a lot..." Ye Xiaowu, who was far away, looked at Gu Fei's surprised expression and smiled wryly. Completing a high-level quest chain across so many levels, it would be strange if the experience wasn't enough to level up. Also, the final two rewards of the quest, the magic proficiency, sword coefficient, and magic coefficient, were attributes that had not yet been released in the low-end equipment provided to low-level players. But Gu Fei had already obtained high-end equipment through the quest chain and possessed them. Ye Xiaowu was completely speechless.
What made him even more depressed was Gu Fei's depressed expression when he received the Moonlight Spirit Robe. At that time, Ye Xiaowu really wanted to pull out his sword and stab him. This guy actually disliked even that. Fortunately, Gu Fei's expression of joy later when he got the Dark Night Luster Sword balanced Ye Xiaowu out a lot.
"Let's go back!" Xiao Yu said.
"Go back where?"
"To Yun Duan City! I'm calling Kang Shi Fu," Xiao Yu said.
"Wait, don't be in such a hurry," Gu Fei said. "It's rare to travel three hours to such a distant main city. Let's look around! Don't you want to see if there are any quests here?"
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up. "That makes sense."
"It's best to accept a quest that requires you to go back to Yun Duan City to complete, so it won't be a wasted trip," Gu Fei said eloquently, making Xiao Yu nod repeatedly. Finally, she decided, "That's right, I've decided to stay in Nightglow City for a few more days. If you want to leave, leave first. You don't have to wait for me."
"I'm a little tired. I'll log off after we enter the city," Gu Fei said.
The two of them left Nightglow Village and headed towards Moonlight City.
The players in the Moonlight City area were just as fierce as they showed in the leveling areas. In the short distance from Nightglow Village to Moonlight City, they had already seen four or five groups fighting, and they were fighting fiercely, to the death. Gu Fei and Xiao Yu carefully bypassed them, fearing that they would accidentally get involved.
Gu Fei was still carrying a PK lawsuit. From the time he logged in in Yun Duan City and started running until now, almost ten hours had passed, and there were still twenty hours before he could clear his name. It was somewhat dangerous to enter the city at this time, but Gu Fei couldn't care less. This quest chain was basically mental labor. Xiao Yu didn't help much except for doing some physical work. Gu Fei had racked his brains for so long and felt more tired than fighting monsters for an afternoon. At this time, he was single-mindedly thinking about logging off and resting.
After entering Moonlight City, he said goodbye to Xiao Yu and asked a player for directions to the nearest safe logout zone.
Upon learning that Gu Fei was from another main city, the player was greatly shocked. After giving Gu Fei directions, he turned to Gu Fei and asked him to describe in detail how to get there.
"It's impossible to survive in Moonlight City. It's too chaotic. All day long, it's fighting and killing. No one levels up even at level 30. Everyone's PK-ing all day long!"
"Why?" Gu Fei asked, puzzled.
"Level 30 experience is accumulated a lot! Think about it, if you're at 30.5 experience right now, and someone cuts you down, the loss is equivalent to falling from 29 to 25. That's a huge loss. Now everyone is afraid of taking this loss, and they don't dare to level up. Then, they're afraid that others will level up and surpass them, so they just keep cutting each other all day long in a vicious cycle," the player explained.
"There's such a thing," Gu Fei said, stunned.
"Ah, there's no other way. People don't dare to level up, so they all grind their life skills. The life skill level of Moonlight City players is very high. If you want to make some equipment or get some medicine, then you didn't come here for nothing," the player said, finally asking, "By the way, I forgot to ask you, what's the name of your city?"
"Yun Duan City," Gu Fei said.
"Damn, Yun Duan City, the city where the melee mage comes from?" the player exclaimed.
"Melee mage?"
"You don't know? The number one on the PK wanted list right now, code name 27149. A mage who adds all his points to agility and plays melee, super awesome. A small thief was killed by him in three strikes and lost eight levels, damn, so awesome. This kind of person should come to our Moonlight City to develop, he would definitely be able to suppress it."
Gu Fei remained calm on the surface. In his heart, he was very emotional. He thought about how his kung fu in reality had no place to be displayed, but in the game, he only used a small fraction of it and caused such a stir, admired by thousands. Kung fu is ultimately used for fighting. Only in this battlefield-like world can it earn the greatest respect.
Gu Fei was lost in thought about kung fu, but the person was staring at Gu Fei's clothes in a daze.
"You were saying that the nearest safe logout zone is this way, right?" Gu Fei said, pointing to the street ahead.
"That's right."
"I'll go first, see you again if we have the chance," Gu Fei said goodbye to the person.
"See you," the other person nodded.
Gu Fei stepped onto the street. The person watched Gu Fei's back and opened his mercenary channel: "I found a fat sheep."
"How fat?" someone asked in the channel.
"A black mage robe, have you ever seen one?" the person said.
"What attributes?"
"I haven't identified it..." the person replied.
"Damn, isn't your Identification skill level 8 already?"
"Damn, there's always someone better, haven't you heard of that? Level 8 isn't the top level," the person replied.
"If you've trained your Identification skill so high, you're probably not a small character. Can we afford to provoke him?"
"Don't worry! No problem. This person came from another main city for some reason. He's alone. If we don't gank him, who will we gank? Hurry up, he's going to the logout zone to log off."
"Which line is he taking?"
"Line C!"
"Damn, isn't that still far away?"
"Then hurry up, I'll follow him first." The person entered stealth mode and slowly followed behind Gu Fei.

Accident! I thought I updated at noon, but now I found out I didn't... Maybe the connection dropped during the upload or something... I'm making up for it now.
