Virtual World: Conquering the World

Chapter 142: Happy Little Bread

I traded the over 300 flour to Ling Xue.  The little beauty looked up and silently calculated it, "547 flour and with your 314, un, that's a total of 861 packs of flour.  It should be enough!"

After this, Ling Xue said with an excited look, "Let's go!  We'll collect the next ingredient, salt!"

I couldn't help being surprised, "Salt?  Where can you get that?"

Ling Xue said with a smile, "Dead Wood Coast!"

"Dead Wood Coast, isn't that the territory of the Scarlet Eyed Sand Alligator?"

"Right, but we're not going to the same place as before.  There's a territory of fishmen there and I read that these fishmen like to collect salt condensed from seawater like treasure!  Let's go!  Let's talk about it once we get there, it's already getting late, so I don't want to stay up too late!"

I gave a nod and followed Ling Xue out of the city.  This time we didn't go to the Cool Breeze Forest, but the Dead Wood Coast!

There were quite a few players leveling at night and we saw quite a few players working hard along the way.  Several level 40 players were surrounding a single level 30 sea turtle and there were more than ten level 30 players being chased around the woods by a level 40 wolf.  In short, it was very lively.  Ling Xue cut down a wolf with a single single slash and those players were dead set on following Ling Xue, so we could only take this group of noobs.

Not long after, we arrived by the sunny coast.  In the distance, the level 60 elite Scarlet Eyed Sand Alligators were bathing in the sun.  We didn't take the initiative to approach them since it was already night time, so we didn't have time to level.  I didn't care about staying up late, but this girl Ling Xue wasn't willing to stay up late unless it was urgent.

After bypassing the territory of the Scarlet Eyes Sand Alligators, we didn't go forward that long before we saw a bunch of fishmen swimming around in the shallow waters!

I directly used the Star Eyes and the stats of the fishmen appeared.

[Fishman Guard]  (Normal Monster)

Level: 65

Attack: 520-650

Defense: 120

HP: 8500

Attack type: Throw.  Deals 25% less damage to heavy armour.

I shared the stats of these fishmen with Ling Xue and she said with a smile, "A good level 65 monster, we should start.  Look over there, if we don't take care of the fishmen, we won't be able to obtain the salt buried in the sand!"

Looking into the distance, I saw that among the Fishman Guards, there were several large bumps in the sand.  The things inside were definitely the things that we were looking for!

So I went forward and quickly hit the scaled head of a Fishman Guard!

"Wu, wu, wu"

The fishman shook his head in a funny manner as a 2786 damage figure appeared above its head.  With just 120 defense, they were like vegetables in front of me!

After another Sweeping Away Thousand Soldiers, the Fishman Guard gave a pitiful wail before falling.  It was very stingy, only dropping several silver coins which really was too poor!

To the side, Ling Xue opened her mouth in surprise, "Little fool, you actually instant killed a level 65 monster!  Isn't your attack power just too abnormal!  Let me see your stats!"

I revealed a smile and shared my stats with Ling Xue.

Easily Angered Bookworm (Dragon Whisperer)

Level: 53

HP: 3920

Attack: 1058-1263

Defense: 740

Magic defense: 220

Prestige: 2890

Luck: 0

Ling Xue blinked those beautiful eyes before muttering, "It really is abnormal, it's actually 1263 attack.  Wu, wu, wu, it's much higher than mine"

I said, "Little girl, let me see your stats too?"

Ling Xue nodded before with a flash of light, Ling Xue's stats appeared in front of me.

Gentle Breeze Flying Snow (Swordswoman)

Level: 50

HP: 3450

Attack: 670-765

Defense: 850

Magic defense: 120

Prestige: 8560

Luck: 0

I couldn't help smiling.  Ling Xue's attack really was a bit nooby, she was a swordsman who added everything into strength!  But thinking about it, Ling Xue's attack had already reached the peak of the current level.  After all, her level 30 Gold Light Flow Sword couldn't match my level 55 Dark Gold Roaring Flame Spear.  Moreover, swordman only had 10 star growth rate for strength, so naturally they couldn't compare to my Hidden Job with its 12 star growth rate.

So I said, "Ling Xue, test the monsters' attack power!"

Ling Xue nodded and the beautiful figure flew out like the wind.  She immediately pulled in several Fishman Guards that gathered around her, throwing their low spears at her which only dealt damage in the tens.

"Po!"

A spear hit Ling Xue's shoulder and there was a sudden burst of red light.  The shield on Ling Xue's shoulder expanded until it became a giant fire red shield in front of the little beauty, blocking off all the attacks of the fishmen!

I suddenly couldn't help understanding.  Ling Xue had a swordsman shield, it was no wonder her defense was that terrifying.  It was even higher than mine!

With a flash of the Light Flow Sword, Ling Xue was already attacking.  She used the Sweeping Away Thousand Soldiers to take half the fishman's HP.  When she released the Water Moon Slash, there was a large sword glow that suddenly flew out and burst out in four different directions with Ling Xue at the center!

"Shua, shua!"

Ling Xue's sword energy fell onto the fishmen and dealt over 2000 HP to each of them.  Not only that, after the sword energy had been shot out, it had tracked the monsters in less than a second before dealing this kind of terrifying damage!

"Ao, ao"

After the fishmen had been hit by Ling Xue's sword energy a third time, they were killed!

I was stunned seeing this.  I thought that my damage was higher than Ling Xue, but now with this terrifying sword energy skill, Ling Xue's damage was actually the king of group battles!

In less than two minutes, the corpses of several fishmen fell at the feet of the little beauty.  Ling Xue even carefully picked up the few silver coins they dropped.  It seemed like she really was a diligent and thrifty little girl.

I came forward to ask ,"Ling Xue, that glow just now, was that the Unrestrained Sword Energy?"

Ling Xue nodded with a smile, "Un, this skill is very useful.  I just go alone with full potions when I level and I level quite quickly!  Un, the Unrestrained Sword Energy is already intermediate level and has a 6% chance of triggering.  So when it reaches high level, it should be around 10% and it'll be even more powerful!"

I couldn't help being surprised, "This skill is too broken!"

Ling Xue revealed a faint smile before pointing at the bump on the side and saying, "Start working~~"

After that, she used the Light Flow Sword to dig and after a few times, it revealed the sand underneath.

[Salt] (Quality 35): Edible salt.

I quickly started collecting and in just a few minutes, the two of us finished digging up all the surrounding piles of sand.  When we gathered it all together, there were 1405 piles of salt which would be enough for a while!

Ling Xue put the salt in her bag and gave a confident smile, "Alright, next is the final thing we have to collect tonight, milk!"

I couldn't help being surprised, "MilkWill that be very hard to collect?"

Ling Xue said, "It is a bit difficult.  You have to kill a buffalo that isn't low level to get it to drop.  Ai, it would be good if there were some premade milk"

I couldn't help saying, "Then look for Zi Yue"

Ling Xue immediately filled with killing intent, "Idiot, what did you say?!"

I immediately regretted it, "That, nothing.  Ling Xue, your teeth really are white"

"Humph!"

The beauty angrily glared at me as she said, "Let's go, we'll kill the buffalo!  It's in the forest in front!"

I cautiously followed beside her and carefully said, "Ling Xue, why are you so angry?"

Ling Xue glared at me and said, "Didn't you say last time that my figure couldn't compare to Zi Yue's?"

"Yes, what about it?"  I looked over at the little beauty's impressive white waves under her armour and my heartbeat couldn't help jumping to 300.

Ling Xue didn't want to pursue this and after glaring at me, she said, "This fellow, you keep being polite with me"

I immediately vowed, "Where!  I'm not that person!"

Ling Xue found this funny as she said in a teasing voice, "What kind of person are you?"

Seeing that she wanted to eat me, I didn't answer and just stared at her.

Ling Xue didn't have this idea and said in a speechless voice, "Don't look at me like this, I'll be embarrassed"

When the little beauty was embarrassed, there was a giant buffalo that appeared that was the goal of this time!

[Jungle Buffalo]  (Elite Monster)

Level: 75

Attack: 650-880

Defense: 450

HP: 50000

Attack type: Heavy hit, deals 10% more damage.

I couldn't help being surprised, "Such strong stats!  Getting the milk really isn't easy!"

Ling Xue said with a smile, "Don't say that.  Let's go together, this monster can already break through my defense!"

I nodded and charged forward with the Roaring Flame Spear, sending out a Shield Break Slash.

"2894!"

My strongest skill didn't disappoint.  With another Ice Wind Thorn, another 2206 damage was dealt.  Then with the Sweeping Away Thousand Soldiers and the Whirlwind Slash, my four skills had dealt 10000 damage to the buffalo in ten seconds!

Ling Xue was stunned by this.  At the same time, the buffalo's horn hit my abdomen and I was sent flying far away, while losing 847 HP!

Ling Xue immediately came forward and dealt 2175 damage to the buffalo with a Water Moon Slash, while also sending out the Profound Ice Sword Energy!

"Hong!"

The powerful Profound Ice Sword Energy fell with a powerful glow.  The buffalo let out a wail as it was stunned by the Profound Ice Sword Energy, being unable to move at all.

I went forward again and used another round of fierce attacks.

Just like this, with the two of us working together, it was much safer and we didn't use as many potions.

"Moo"

The buffalo gave a painful wail before falling.

I quickly came forward and picked up the gold coins it dropped, as well as an item which was like cheese that splattered on the ground.  When I picked it up, it turned into bottles of milk.

"Ding~!"

System notification: You have gathered [Fresh Milk] x135!

I couldn't help laughing, "It really is a cow, not bad!  A single cow dropped 135 milk, we just need to kill around ten of them."

Ling Xue nodded with a happy smile, "Un!"

So we quickly killed another one and took around three minutes to take care of it, but this one only gave 37 bottles of milk.  I took the milk and said, "It seems like this cow wasn't filled with milk, we have to pick carefully before attacking."

Ling Xue looked up at me like she found this to be funny and asked, "Then how can you tell?"

I proved it with my actions and fell down to look before pulling in the next mob.

Ling Xue's face turned red and she immediately pulled me up by the neck, "Idiot!  Don't lie on the ground looking at the monsters.  Wu, wu, wu, so embarrassing~~"

I accepted her advice and said, "Alright, since you don't like it, I won't look."

Then the two of us took care of another cow, but this time there wasn't a single bottle of milk!

I was filled with rage, "Damn, I didn't see clearly, but this is a male cow!"

Ling Xue was shaking with laughter before patting my shoulder, "Alright, alright.  It doesn't matter if it's male or female, let's kill them all.  Anyway, the experience from these Elite Monsters aren't that bad!"

I nodded before continuing to kill the mobs.

Because there was a difference in quality of milk and there were bulls mixed in, there was only an average of around 50 bottles of milk that dropped each time.

But it was a good thing that the experience of these Elite Monsters were tempting, so the two of us happily killed them.

Finally around 1, we finally gathered a thousand bottles of milk.  Ling Xue announced, "Alright, let's stop here tonight!  I'm going to make the bread, do you want to watch?"

I nodded with a smile, "Alright!  I'll go with you!  Once you're done making the bread, let's log off together."

Ling Xue nodded with a sweet smile, "Un."

So Ling Xue started making the bread.  She didn't need any items and just needed the materials before using magic.  Each bread took 100 flour, 100 salt, and 100 milk.  After ten seconds, the first bread appeared and Ling Xue directly threw it to me with a smile, "Eat it, don't be polite!  It's freshly baked!"

After the deal, the bread appeared in front of me.

[Magic Bread] (Level 1) x100:

When not in combat, it restores 500 HP and 1000 MP over ten seconds.

I couldn't help being surprised, this really was something good!

Ling Xue spent a while making the bread and quite a few bread appeared in her inventory.  Each set of ingredients made 100 pieces of bread and each inventory space could only take 100 pieces.  So 800 pieces of wheat made 800 pieces of bread and Ling Xue generously gave me 200 of them.

She said while laughing, "This is your fee for getting the ingredients with me tonight.  Un, I'll leave some for big sister since her mana consumption as a magician is just too high!"

I gave a nod, "Un, let's log off and rest early!"
