Chapter 412: Greedy Ellie

“Feng Yun’s skills are indeed not bad, but he has too many skills, not specialized. Also, his buffs would overlap with other jobs,” said Lin Jie as he shook his head. “The Mark of Truth, which enhances Critical Hit by 3%, overlaps with the Bandit’s group skill [Assassin]. The skill which enhances Endurance by 5% overlaps with Priests’ Power Word Toughen... To sum it up, other jobs can do what he can do too.”

Mixed Breathless nodded his head knowingly. “I see.”

Dejected Night chuckled and told Lin Jie, “Breathless was originally kicked out from a guild and had no place to go, so I befriended him. Now, I am just recalling memories from this familiar sight, let’s go.”

The four of them looked at Feng Yun’s corpse lying on the ground and left. Some people were destined to become the sacrifice of conflicts, such as Feng Yun, it was inevitable. If Lin Jie did not destroy him now and allowed the Zerg Queen Artherga to grow, the Zerg army would become a powerful enemy to Lin Jie.

Meanwhile, the Brotherhood members that had come to support Mixed Breathless and Dejected Night were distributed a Level 30 Gold item each, they were extremely elated. The EXP lost could not even be compared with the gain of a Gold item with superb attributes! Once many of the players, who had left the Brotherhood, learned about that, they all wanted to join back the organization again to receive a Gold item as compensation.

“Those who can’t share hardships have no qualifications to share the joy,” said Dejected Night angrily as he rejected those people.

“Here, this is the mission item.” Mixed Breathless took out a dirty slip of paper. From the unreadable handwriting, one could still make out the word “Mona”. It was also the key mission item. That was dropped after the Boss was killed, so it belonged to Mixed Breathless’ mission item, other people were unable to pick it up.

Including Mixed Breathless’ item, everyone already had two clues.

The third Boss—Grand Commander•Mona was the strongest single Boss in Holy Light Temple. He did not have the ability to summon monsters like other Bosses—the battling style of Mona was to fight alone and singlehandedly battle player’s teams.

Mona’s job was the hidden branch of Paladins, “Royal Knight”. The players’ attributes would decrease by 20% if one did not have a nobility status! Also, Mona’s attributes would also increase explosively, where even the MT would not be able to endure his attacks. With just two stabs of his spear, the MT would instantly be killed! Such a formidable ability allowed Mona to become the first place in the “Top Hundred Powerful Boss Leaderboard” for a period of time!

The background story of Mona was the following: after he had been brainwashed, he had been sent into the Death Training Camp to kill all his comrades in the same batch, which trained with him. Finally, his memories were sealed, and he became the Royal Knight, which was invincible. He was even self-proclaimed that he was the king of the Knighthood and was submerged within the delusion all day. The only way to defeat him was to “awaken his memory”.

Of course, there was another method that was to use the Holy Light Corrosive Potion, which Yatasha had given to Lin Jie. That was the secret weapon, which would definitely be kept and not used until the last moment!

...

A day later.

All members of Savage Blade were absorbed in farming the missions of the town. The number of collected clues regarding Mona, which included diaries, items, toys of his childhood, weapons he had used before, and so on, also increased. Of course, the most important one was still the Character Card, which Lin Jie had, he had directly brought along Mona’s mother.

—World Announcement (Calling-out from player Character Z): The elite team of Twilight Transmigration guild has successfully killed the second Boss Shadow Queen! The video has already been uploaded to the official website, all players are welcome to take reference from it.

Whoosh!

That announcement was like a bomb! Everyone was shocked. Twilight Transmigration had become famous after killing Guardian Eller, but many people still thought that that guild was just lucky. However, being able to kill the second Boss too, it couldn’t only be luck, could it?

That was skill!

Also, the astonishing bet between Twilight Transmigration and Brotherhood had also become the hottest topic. Unexpectedly, Character Z had changed the wager of Codename Lone Wolf to “Savage Blade will willingly join Twilight Transmigration” and not that of Codename Lone Wolf giving his position up. However, Character Z was also afraid of Lin Jie finding trouble with them, so he just changed the wager to 300,000 gold coins, it had been increased by a total of three times!

To that change, Lin Jie did not express his opinion as Character Z was willing to raise the wager, he did not mind either.

At the City of Light.

Dumb Fox, Ghost Eyes, Heaven Plume, and Inksnow were walking beside Lin Jie. Dumb Fox’s eyes gleamed as he said, “Brother Lone Wolf, Twilight Transmigration has already cleared the second Boss and uploaded the video, that’s disadvantageous to us.”

Lin Jie smiled as he replied, “They have uploaded the video of them killing Guardian Eller for quite a few days already, was there a third team that cleared it?”

“Uh...”

“No,” answered Inksnow. “Logically speaking, once one has grasped the walkthrough video of a Boss and researched it by analyzing the battling method, it would not be hard to clear it. Twilight Transmigration’s battling method was indeed a little money-consuming, scrolls, potions, and precious channeling materials were used as if they did not cost money. However, these could all be imitated, unless—”

Legend looked at Inksnow with approval, not only was she strong but also meticulous in her thinking, she was indeed the best candidate to be the team’s core. ‘The Legendary beautiful MT in my previous life, not recruiting her to become my teammate, is really a waste...’

“You’re right as the key to passing the dungeon is not those mentioned just now, but in another item, that special item is the core to clearing the Boss.”

Naturally, the special item meant “Fragment of Faith”. Without the Fragment of Faith, anyone would be wiped out by the despicable infinite loop of Holy Light Baptism and Holy Thunderstorm.

“I have called you here to show you some things. Actually, the Main Plot Dungeon of War of Light dungeon-group is only the beginning of the game. The system is trying to change our fixed mindset of many traditional games through this dungeon. For example, the first dungeon required teamwork. The second dungeon required perseverance. The third dungeon requires the utilization of clues.” Lin Jie showed the items that Savage Blade’s members had gathered, which included a rusted hoe, dirty and smelly underwear, and etc... Those were all items Mona had used before.

These items were temporarily still “illegal”. Just like how in real life, a contract that was not legally enforceable would not be recognized, Lin Jie had to appraise them. Only then could they be useful.

In the City of Light, there were many special NPCs. Those NPCs’ actions were weird, their personalities differed, and they even frequently beat up players. Such abnormal behavior, all the more displayed their uniqueness.

Greedy Ellie was one of them.

She was a small girl with gold hair and blue eyes. She had twin ponytails and sat in front of the book store with a stall set up. As long as one gave her money, one would trigger a conversation. She would give the player a mission to find a book, but afterward, when the player brought back the book, the girl would pretend not to know that she had given such a mission. Not only would she not give the mission rewards, but she would also persuade one to leave.

“Sigh, annoying uncle, you don’t know what Ellie wants at all, I don’t like you! Scram, scram!” When the five of them reached, Ellie’s whole face was red with anger as she chased a player away. That player was none other than Ophadi Wantless, who took joy in discovering missions.

“F*ck you, I have searched books for you for a month, but you have the same expression every day. I don’t believe that I can’t find out that hidden mission on you!” said Wantless ferociously.

NPC Ellie’s behavior made it clear that she did have a hidden mission. Wantless had already stayed there for one month, coming to find books for Ellie every day. Unfortunately, he had made no progress and did not even obtain anything.

Ellie sat on her seat, angrily, murmuring, “No one knows what Ellie wants, boohoo...”

Lin Jie coughed dryly before going up and taking out a silver coin. “Hello young lady, how about uncle treating you some lollipop?” he asked.

“Money?” Ellie’s eyes lit up, and she snatched the silver coin away. Her huge eyes blinked as she used a cute voice to say, “Uncle, can you help me find a book?”

Ding~

—’Do you accept the mission [Loli’s Request]?’

Lin Jie’s mouth twitched, she really knew how to adapt quickly. In Lin Jie’s previous life, he had called himself a big brother, so the name of the mission had been [Little Sister’s Request]. Now that he had claimed to be an uncle, she had changed the name to loli.

“It’s you. F*ck, this is infuriating. I have no idea how to trigger the hidden mission of this NPC. I advise you not to try as it’s just wasting money, I’ve already wasted 10 gold coins on the NPC in this month,” Wantless warned Lin Jie out of goodwill as he saw Lin Jie.

Wantless had been giving money to activate the mission on a daily basis before entering the book shop to complete the mission—he had already spent 10 gold coins! It really was a surprisingly large sum of money spent once the total expenditure was calculated. Wantless started to reconsider if he should give up on that NPC.

Lin Jie patted Wantless’ shoulder in a thoughtful manner before stepping foot into the book shop.

“What do you want?” asked the book shop owner smilingly. He was an old Mage who had a long beard and wore spectacles.

[The New Age History]: 30 silver coins.

[City of Light Biography]: 50 silver coins.

[Embarrassing Records of City Leader Caesar]: 1 gold coin.

The book shop was filled with many different types of books that were all priced at 30 silver coins and above. One really would not be able to afford to read books without money, how could poor people be able to buy the books?

Lin Jie directly pulled the list to the last column and bought a book named “The New Age History Deluxe Version], its price was actually 150 gold coins! If converted to cash, it would be 15,000, it was simply snatching money. The content of that book was exactly the same as the 30 silver coins one. The only difference was—it was all written by gold ink, which was melted gold. Thus, once the book was flipped open, it would shine with golden light, showing how extremely extravagant it was.

He passed the book to Ellie, and she hugged the book in delight and jumped with joy. She smiled sweetly and said, “Thank you, uncle, Ellie really likes you!”

As she spoke, Ellie flipped open the book, took out a small carving knife, and immediately started to scrape gold powder with her eyes beaming with greediness.

Wantless spurted out a mouth of blood. “Greedy Ellie-Greedy Ellie... F*ck! Which normal person would be so idiotic as to spend 150 gold coins to buy a book? I was finding it strange why a girl who was illiterate would love history books, so it was to scrape gold.”

“Ellie, help uncle out.” Lin Jie said the word “uncle” shamelessly and then threw out all of the items related to “Mona” out. “Could you appraise the owner of these items?”

Ellie’s real identity was the best Appraiser of City of Light! One could find her to identify the many items with weird descriptions. However, the fee was very expensive, and one still had to complete the prelude mission.

Ellie waved her hand and said, “No problem! The appraisal fee is 300 gold coins.”

Lin Jie nodded his head and took a step back before saying with a serious tone, “Three guild leaders, I have to remind you that only by making use of every detail in the game can the clues be found, such as these items. If they are not appraised, then they will not be able to be used.”

“I understand, yes. I’ve learned something new, let me pay the 300 gold coins.”

“Fox, there’s no need for you to do it, let me.”

“Cough, you will pay, I’ll just look at you pay.”

The three guild leaders understood the hint, and hurriedly took out their money. Inksnow nearly dropped her jaw as she saw what happened while standing at the side. Her eyes were full of disdain as she stared at them. Codename Lone Wolf was as thick-skinned as in the rumors, wasn’t it obvious that he wanted the three guild leaders to pay the money?

In the end, each of them forked out 100 gold coins—that was not a small sum of money, it was a total of $10,000! That was the salary of a normal person for two to three months!

Ellie’s eyes narrowed from the happiness of accepting the gold coins. She then gladly grabbed the item and touched it. She nodded her head and said, “These are all the belongings of a middle-aged man named Mona.”

Everyone was stunned. “That’s it? Is there any evidence that can prove it?”

Ellie raised her brows. “My words are the best evidence! I’ve finished appraising, bye-bye!”

300 gold coins for a sentence, Ellie was that willful!
