Chapter 562: Queen Jiao’s in Action
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“The Number One Archer God, Dark Wing of the Invincible Continent is heartless...”
Black Autumn really did not go back against her word. The moment Li Yi left; she immediately shouted in the World Channel.
“All the Invincible Continent’s trash Archer, Dark Wing is good at is in bullying the weak. He stole an egg from a lady and is generally a despicable, shameless scumbag...”
Autumn Love’s announcement was not too big of a deal. However, the temper of the chick that went by the name Fluttering Rain Purple Water Chestnut flared the moment she saw someone mentioning Dark Wing. She had already been absent from the World Channel for nearly two days, but now, she was back to spamming the channel.
Despite that, Li Yi could not hear their words, as he had closed his World Channel tab a while back. Furthermore, even if he did hear their shouts, it would not matter as he would just let them be. They could scold him all they wanted, but he would still continue playing and continue to have fun.
After visiting his home at Shattered Frost City and retrieving the Purple Quality equipment and the precious materials within it, he headed to the Auction House to sell them off.
He had really cleared out his stock this time. Aside from the ingredients he required for refining medicine, not a single item was left in his stock as they had all been sold off.
Not a single trash equipment could be found within Li Yi’s stock of equipment, and since they were all great equipment, he had no difficulty in selling them. Very quickly, the equipment that he had displayed on auction were quickly sold.
After selling his equipment, Li Yi purchased medicinal ingredients en-masse, without sparing any thought to profit. As long as the ingredient could aid him in raising his Apothecary Mastery, he would buy them regardless of their price. Additionally, since he was purchasing them in bulk, he had caused quite a rise in the prices of medicinal ingredients.
Once that was done, Li Yi locked himself inside his house. With Onyxia and Mermaid Princess as his companions, he initiated the grind for his mastery level and poured in all his attention to rush it.
The stock of equipment that was comparable to an ocean had been depleted, and Li Yi’s Apothecary Mastery had successfully risen to 9,999,999 out of 10,000,000. He was just one point away from attaining Legendary-level Apothecarist status.
The problem with it was that the last point could not be attained just by refining normal potions. Unless Li Yi could achieve a breakthrough and refine a Legendary-level potion or discover a formula for refining Legendary potions, he would never attain that final point, regardless of what he did.
Li Yi reserved some of the medicine that he refined for himself and auctioned the rest of it at the Auction House.
“Purchasing Resurrection Stones, Resurrection Talismans, and Mysterious Eggs in bulk! Name your price if you have them on you and message me all you want! Money isn’t a problem!”
For the past few days, Li Yi did not do any quests. If he was not refining medicine, he would be lounging at the Auction House. Collecting ingredients and selling equipment had made him busy beyond measure, and even after he had sold out his equipment, he was using his excess money to purchase resurrection tools and Mysterious Eggs in bulk.
As of now, the five pets that Li Yi currently had on him were able to satisfy his needs. However, once the level cap was removed and the level threshold was increased, the five pets that he owned would slowly become obsolete. Due to this, he decided to purchase as many Mysterious Eggs he could.
The drop rate of Mysterious Egg was extremely low, and for Archers or Summoners, that item was even more valuable than Resurrection Stones as it would decide whether they’ll attain an end-game pet or not.
Li Yi seized the opportunity to stockpile the necessary equipment before the level cap was removed so that when the time came, he could proceed unhindered.
Though Li Yi was not as rich as Brother Windcloud Nine or Tyrant Sword King the Fifth, what he had was eight years’ worth of game experience from his past life. Things such as the worth of an item and the inflation or deflation of an item were still fresh within his mind. Plus, this knowledge was something that Brother Windcloud Nine and the likes of him would never obtain, and it was the greatest boon that came with Li Yi’s new life.
Li Yi was not lacking money as just by relying solely on his familiarity with the game’s item prices, he had made a killing by selling and buying items in the Auction House.
On one particular day, just as Li Yi was buying items in the Auction House, he heard a ‘ding’. It was a Summoning Order that came from Queen Jiao.
Li Yi flinched for a moment before clicking accept.
Li Yi appeared within a chamber of the royal palace, and it was the room that he brought Autumn Love to the last time.
There were two players within the chambers, one of which was Jiaojiao who pulled him over, and the other was Ouyang Qian.
Li Yi found it peculiar.
“Lil Yi’zi, come here, let me introduce you to her.”
Jiaojiao made a huge fuss in calling Li Yi over, and then she patted Ouyang Qian’s shoulder. “This is my homie, Ouyang Qian, and from this day forth, she is our Vice Military Advisor. The reason I called you over is to inform you of this fact.”
“What homie? What Vice Military Advisor?” Li Yi was thrown into confusion by Jiaojiao’s words.
Ouyang Qian suddenly broke into a grin, and with one hand clasping Jiaojiao’s slender hand, she nodded at Li Yi. “Hello, Guild Master.”
“Huh?” Li Yi was even more perplexed now.
“Lil Qian has defected to our nation. From this day forth, she is an official member of Little Drunk Cat. All hail our new Vice Military Advisor! So, what do you think, Lil Yi’zi?”
“Defected to our nation?”
“Yep, I’ve already defected to your nation.”
Ouyang Qian showed the Invincible Continent’s emblem on her hand to Li Yi, which was a mighty little fist, an insignia of Jiaojiao’s own design. Additionally, the fist was actually Jiaojiao’s.
Li Yi was dumbfounded...
Never in his wildest dreams would he have imagined Ouyang Qian betraying her own nation by her own volition.
Li Yi decided to prod, “Did you come here all by yourself?”
Jiaojiao pouted her lips in irritation. “Tch, it was I, Jiaojiao who brought her over.”
“You? You were the one who brought B-Big...Qian’er over?” Due to his panic, Li Yi nearly called her Big-tits Qian.
“Right on, ten points for your answer.”
System Notification: [Invincible Jiaojiao has added Ouyang Qian into Little Drunk Cat Guild.]
Jiaojiao pumped her fist at Li Yi. “Lil Yi’zi, aren’t you going to give her a position?”
“Who’re you calling Lil Yi’zi? Call me Brother Yi.” Li Yi flashed an angry glare at Jiaojiao before giving Ouyang Qian the position of ‘Vice Guild Master’.
Ouyang Qian politely extended her hand to Li Yi. “I’ll be in your care from now on.”
Li Yi put on a smile and shook her hand.
Li Yi shifted his gaze slightly to the side, and he caught Jiaojiao making plenty of weird expressions at him. The smugness plastered across her face smelled like a plot to Li Yi...
“I have some business to attend to. So. I’m going to log off now. Bye my wife, see you tonight.”
Ouyang Qian kissed Jiaojiao’s cheek and logged out.
Li Yi was speechless...
Jiaojiao heaved a huge sigh. “Finally, it wasn’t easy to convince her you know?”
Li Yi gave a thumbs-up to Jiaojiao.
...
The battles within Conquer were still going on. Fortunately, there was a benefit to the dungeon, whereby the dungeon could be reset whenever the players wanted, and it was not decided by the system.
Little Elf from the Magical Realm was still embroiled in the tough battle against the gatekeeper boss. Li Yi could not aid her whatsoever as he was totally oblivious to the gatekeeper boss. He was oblivious to the extent that he did not even know how the boss looked, even now.
“I’ve already taken out 90% of its health. I think with a few more tries, I could definitely make it through.” Little Elf from the Magical Realm took the initiative to message Li Yi about her current progress.
Li Yi sent over three of the Resurrection Stones he had collected to her.
“If you really can’t do it, try using this...”
Resurrection Stones were extremely scarce, and after half a month of collecting them, Li Yi had only gotten three pieces. Now that he had gifted all the ones he purchased to Little Elf from the Magical Realm; he was left with only one last stone.
While Little Elf from the Magical Realm was giving it her all in her efforts to achieve the first kill of Conquer, Li Yi was constantly making preparations for the final Party-level Dungeon of the Light and Darkness Instances, Soul Gate.
His daily activities consisted of auctioning items, and aside from that, he did nothing else.
The Dog-skin Plaster, Old Green did not disappoint Li Yi. Using the techniques that Li Yi had taught him, the guy had already killed Arthur over ten times and had even forced him to drop two exquisite magic equipment. Arthur was so mad that he had mobilized his entire guild to hunt down Old Green, and as of now, the two parties were now engaged in a ‘Dog-skin Plaster’ war.
May 26th, Sunny.
On that day, two major events occurred.
The first was the Western Continent’s Throne-claiming War. It had officially begun.
The second was regarding Apple’s newest handphone, the iDream, and it had been officially announced...
When Jiaojiao read about the news, she was so surprised that she gaped so widely that even an egg could fit into her tiny mouth.
“Impossible! How can this be? It’s been what... five years since Apple last sold a new phone? Why would they suddenly... this is impossible!”
“Would you finally believe me now?”
“I don’t believe you! And I never will, even if you beat me to death... This is so unreal...”
Jiaojiao had no words for the matter though, as that was the reality that was presented right in front of her.
Not long after the Western Continent’s war, the Southern Continent’s Throne-claiming battle began as well.
Unlike the war in his previous life, the Throne-claiming War of the Southern Continent this time was between the guilds, Arthur’s Empire and Assembled Gods.
Arthur’s Empire had suffered major losses from the previous wars and had lost a large fraction of elite members. Furthermore, there was also a huge number of players who chose to join Assembled Gods, which was an extremely low-profile guild. Despite that, it was filled to the brim with expert players, and the likes of Amber Sword Heart, Alex, and yellow-robed Priest Ah Ye were all from the guild.
While the other two major continents were ensnared in a Throne-claiming War, Li Yi headed to the Western Continent alone. Following that, Queen Jiao issued a King’s Order and gathered her troops to charge into the Southern Continent.
Li Yi was aiding Brother Windcloud Nine’s ascension to the throne, whereas Jiaojiao was sabotaging Arthur’s attempt at the throne.
Arthur was nothing but small fry, but the force that backed him was not to be underestimated. Fluttering Snow Alliance had already designated the Southern Continent as their base of development, and now that Jiaojiao was present, they were sure to give her a brutal fight.
It was not as if Li Yi did not want to go to the Southern Continent, it was just that he was unsure whether Brother Windcloud Nine could handle it. Faced with two options, Li Yi was forced to pick one of them, and he chose Brother Windcloud Nine.
Becoming Emperor was no easy task. Strong as Iron Alliance might be, they were only unbeatable in the Invincible Continent. However, when it came to the major cities that were located in other major continents, they were still far from being invincible.
“Brother Nine, how’s the situation there? Have you made it into their Celestial Capital?” While making his way there, Li Yi sent an inquiry to Brother Windcloud Nine via mail.
“The tank strategy you taught me is pretty darn effective. Haha, we’ve already entered the capital, whereas Night Moon and her army are still circling outside the capital.
“Okay, that’s good. Notify me immediately if there are any changes in the situation.”
“Rest assured!”
...
In order to secure Brother Windcloud Nine’s ascension, Li Yi sent over the Dark Contract Scroll with the Spirit King sealed within it to Brother Windcloud Nine. However, he did not expect the scroll to be sent back to him not long after. Brother Windcloud Nine returned it with the excuse that he had an even greater secret weapon than the scroll.
Li Yi was quite curious as to what that ‘secret weapon’ of Brother Windcloud Nine’s was.
“Onyxia! Full speed ahead! Your target, the Celestial Capital of the Western Continent!”
“Roar—”
With a low groan, Onyxia accelerated onward.
