Chapter 1319: Chapter 582: Threaten My Little Linzi? You’re Worthy?_3

He and Xia Hongyao didn’t expect that a player was hiding behind a large tree. The other player came out and cast a huge Fireball at High Ponytail. Could Xia Hongyao let that slide?

Obviously, she’d slay him!

An infuriating experience that even Phoenix ten years later still wanted to flip tables over, but to Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao, it meant nothing. They collected the treasure chest and continued on their way.

The meeting place they agreed upon with Tang Keke was the crossroads at Crow Ridge, but upon arrival, they saw no one.

Lin Da Hungry Man: Where is everyone? Didn’t you say you had arrived?

Tang Keke: Yes.

Lin Da Hungry Man: Then why don’t I see anyone?

Tang Keke: You’re here?

Lin Da Hungry Man: Yep!

Tang Keke: ???

Crouching in a bush, Tang Keke craned her neck to look around and apart from two NPCs armored from head to toe, she saw nothing.

Wait a minute,

Could one of them be Lin Baici?

But that equipment...

Lin Baici apparently thought of the same thing and lifted his faceplate.

His and Xia Hongyao’s equipment both came from drops in the Cathedral of Holy Light. From Level 40 to Level 50, they had gotten several sets of this suit dubbed the Crusaders of Holy Light.

"Big Cousin!"

Shouting, Tang Keke ran out, and upon reaching them, she couldn’t help but admire Lin Baici up and down. With Big Cousin wearing this suit, he simply looked too cool.

It was irresistibly attractive.

"Tell me the situation!"

Lin Baici tossed a cloth robe to Tang Keke.

This girl was currently only in her underwear, having been stripped of all her gear.

Fortunately, in this game, one could not take off their underwear.

Tang Keke checked the gear level and cried, "I need to be at least Level 40 to wear it, and I’m not there yet!"

"Then you’ll have to buy some yourself!"

Lin Baici traded Tang Keke ten Gold Coins and after she explained the general situation about the bandit gang, Lin Baici leaped onto his Mount: "You should stay out of it, be careful not to get killed again. We’ll handle it!"

"They have more than twenty people!"

Tang Keke worried.

"Heh, the two of us are more than enough!"

Lin Baici spurred his mount.

Tang Keke wanted to follow, but her legs couldn’t catch up with the speed of the Mounts, and in a blink, they were out of sight.

...

At the entrance to the Thorn Valley, Deng Ziyu was bored to death and yawning.

Robbery was quite shameless, but one had to admit, unearned gains were delightful.

The 40-something sales director couldn’t stand the high-intensity leveling, and he neither liked nor was good at playing games.

As the saying goes, money talks. If he didn’t want to grind monsters or undertake quests and yet didn’t want to be left behind, he had to pay for others to lead him.

Where would the money come from?

Either by mining and gathering herbs around the world or by slaying monsters.

The director wanted to avoid both. After discovering that robbing others didn’t decrease achievement points, he began to rob travelers at the Thorn Valley entrance.

"After two or three more hits, we’ll move out, switch spots, and continue," the director said as he looked at a map, pondering the next target.

"Director, if we keep doing this, won’t someone come for revenge?"

Wang Xiao didn’t want to engage in robbery, but since all the colleagues from the same 4S shop were doing it, it would be awkward for him to be the only one abstaining.

Without companions in this unfamiliar game,

life could be quite miserable.

"Don’t worry, if you die in the game, you lose all your achievement points. Who would PK for someone else?"

The director was very calm: "Our group should be the largest around!"

"That’s our advantage, we must use it!"

The director also gathered a few outsiders who wanted freebies to look more imposing.

Truth be told, the presence of over twenty players standing there did have a deterrent effect.

"Director, there are two people on horseback coming over!"

Deng Ziyu shouted.

"On horseback?"

The director looked up: "Such fancy gear, probably NPC, right?"

"Everyone, hide and stand by!"

The director was no fool; NPC or player, with gear that good, it was better not to provoke them.

Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao reined in their horses, stopping at the entrance.

"There!"

Xia Hongyao pointed with her War Hammer towards three o’clock.

"Come out!"

Lin Baici commanded.

"Damn, they seem like they’re here for revenge!"

Wang Xiao worried.

"Just two people, what revenge could they get?"

Deng Ziyu sneered: "Could they beat twenty people?"

The director stood up: "Are you players?"

"You robbed my friend’s money!"

Xia Hongyao accused.

"Oh, this is a misunderstanding!"

The director smiled: "It’s just a game. Everyone makes their living by their abilities, right? If robbery wasn’t allowed, we’d be punished, wouldn’t we?"

"Silver-tongued!"

Xia Hongyao scorned.

"However much money we took, we’ll pay back double!"

The director smiled genially: "May I ask how to address you two?"

"Director, why are you being so humble?"

Deng Ziyu came over, discontent in her tone: "These two are so well-equipped and even have Mounts, it’s a fat catch to rob!"

The director glanced at Deng Ziyu and thought, no wonder her sales performance was poor: except for her figure, she was good for nothing.

Twenty to two, could you win?

You could win!

But players with such gear must be pros.

In this game, pros are valuable, and the director wanted to cultivate relationships, paving the way for the future.

"Aren’t you guys robbing others?"

Xia Hongyao was a little confused; she had thought it would lead to a tense face-off and a fight would break out after a few words of arguing, but the other party was amiable, offering a settlement, and even doubling it.

"Everyone has hard times."

The director offered a bitter smile.

High Ponytail turned to consult Lin Baici: "What should we do?"
