Chapter 68 - Dark Sword

Xu Lin and Xin Yu both appeared in my room. Xin Yu was holding a bag of potato chips I had just bought, eating them while smiling at me. Lu Xuehan sat awkwardly on the edge of my bed.

Xu Lin's beautiful face was flushed, truly reflecting her excited mood at that moment.

"Lin Fan, this is a groundbreaking achievement! You know, no one has ever managed to get purple epic equipment yet, but you got it all by yourself. You're definitely the first person in the world!"

I smiled and said to Xu Lin, "Sister Lin, stop praising me. I'll get arrogant."

"By the way, how did you get it?" Xu Lin puffed out her full chest. With her already feminine charm, this action was a bit much for me to handle.

"Stop looking! Hurry up and tell us how you got it!" Xin Yu plopped down on my bed, crossing her two fair arms over my shoulders. Her full, firm chest pressed against my arm, and her intimate manner made my ears burn slightly.

"You're impossible!" I gently pushed Xin Yu away, glancing at Lu Xuehan. Seeing that she wasn't angry, I seriously told everyone, "Last time, I did a series of quests on Wild Horse Plains and finally got a blue Warrior's gauntlet. But because that quest was completed, all the NPC monsters on Wild Horse Plains refreshed, and there were no suitable monsters for me to fight anymore. So, I found a small mountain path on the edge of the map. At the end of the path, there was an indiscriminate attacking Boss guarding the exit to another map."

Lu Xuehan and Xin Yu watched me with wide, beautiful eyes, waiting for the rest of the story. I picked up my water glass, took a sip, and continued, "The Boss was very powerful, and its magic had a paralyzing effect, paralyzing for two seconds every half minute. But I still spent over an hour defeating this Boss, using four sets of medium red potions. Relatively speaking, the harvest was also very good: three high-level pieces of equipment and a skill book. Currently, I've only checked the necklace's attributes; I haven't had time to look at the others."

Xu Lin pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "This time, you've really hit the jackpot! If Xue Han's healing effect increases by another 45%, she'll definitely be one of the top Priests in the world, and our chances of winning this Champion Challenge will be even greater!"

I nodded in agreement, "Exactly. The attributes of this necklace are extremely strong. Just the vitality alone adds 37 points, meaning Xue Han can have over 300 more health points than other Priests. It would probably take a long time for a low-attack Thief to kill her even if she just stood there."

At this point, I changed the subject and continued, "But have you considered that this necklace requires level 30? Do you think Xue Han can go from level 25 to level 30 in two days?"

The three beauties were stunned. I quickly smiled and explained, "It doesn't matter if we don't have this necklace during the challenge. Anyway, our overall strength is definitely among the top three in the main cities of Jiangsu and Shanghai, at least in terms of level, we have an absolute advantage!"

"Oh, right! Oh, right!" Xin Yu giggled, patting Lu Xuehan's shoulder beside her, and said, "How is our Little beauty Xue Han going to repay Lin Fan for this world's first purple necklace?"

Lu Xuehan just pursed her lips and smiled, not saying a word. It seemed she had already learned the best way to curb Xin Yu.

Xu Lin smiled and said, "Lin Fan, I estimate this purple necklace is worth at least 500,000 RMB. Unfortunately, I don't have that much capital right now, so let's convert it to 50,000 RMB. We'll make up the rest to you when we expand. In two days, I will transfer a total of over 80,000, including Murong Shanshan's previous money, into your personal account."

With 50,000 in hand all at once, I was overjoyed and didn't want to quibble. "Sister Lin, this purple necklace is for Xue Han's use, it's not actually sold for 500,000. 50,000 is enough for me. When we sell equipment we get in the future, we can calculate a 1/3 commission."

Xu Lin also didn't stand on ceremony, nodding and smiling, "That's good. Let's all go back to leveling up. The martial arts competition is in two days."

Everyone returned to their rooms. I called out to Lu Xuehan as she was leaving, "Xue Han, I'll trade the necklace to you when I return to the city."

Lu Xuehan nodded and smiled, "Lin Fan, thank you so much. I'll treat you to a meal another day."

As I was thinking about that meal, which I didn't know when I'd get to eat, I was about to put on my helmet, but Lu Xuehan suddenly turned around and said, "Also, thank you for the snacks..."

A blush spread across Lu Xuehan's fair, delicate face, making her incredibly charming.

I nodded, and Lu Xuehan entered her room. I quickly put on my helmet to check the two remaining pieces of equipment. I vaguely remembered there was also a sword. I hoped it was a top-tier sword!

After logging in, I appeared next to the cliff. Before I could even move, I heard a system message: You have been attacked by the Swamp Guardian, paralyzed for 2 seconds!

Hmm, this Boss has respawned?

A hidden rule in moons constant is that any Boss NPC will only drop its highest-grade equipment or skill book the first time it's defeated. If you defeat it again after it respawns, it will only drop equipment one grade lower. Also, my equipment durability was already less than half, which completely extinguished my idea and impulse to fight it again.

However, this Boss's respawn rate was quite fast; it respawned in less than 30 minutes. It gave me 2500 reputation points each time, which is not bad for farming reputation. Oh, speaking of farming reputation, I just remembered, didn't Murong Shanshan agree to farm reputation all night with me? It's almost 10 o'clock now, and she hasn't logged in. This isn't like her usual style.

Never mind, let's check the other two pieces of equipment first. First, that dark longsword—

sword of darkness (Blue Equipment)

Attack: 170-245

Strength: +28

Vitality: +24

Agility: +21

Required Level: 32

...Haha! I started laughing wildly in my heart. That Murong Shanshan won't be smug for long. I actually got a two-handed sword with even stronger attributes! Although it's also blue equipment, it's definitely one of the best greatswords currently! The only pity is that it requires level 32. I looked at my own level and realized I was already level 30! The Guardian's super high experience had directly brought me to level 30! It seems it's very possible to reach level 32 before the competition!

What was frustrating was that my current equipment was already tattered. If I fought the Guardian again, my equipment might be completely destroyed, which would be a net loss. Where could I get a set of top-tier equipment now?

It seems there's still equipment. Let me quickly check again...
