[Public Chat] Bluegreen-Clad: I hereby declare that I have no other woman apart from Flowing Light. Many thanks for the Matchless members who have spoken for Flowing Light today. I've kicked Baby520 out of the League of Strong Families. If someone follows Baby520's example and insults Flowing Light, I'll definitely make him or her suffer.
Bluegreen-Clad's words sparked a heated discussion in the game. His quick reaction deeply impressed members of the Matchless, who had not liked him very much before.
[Public Chat] Soft-heartedness is a Disease: Bluegreen-Clad, you're a real man. I'm impressed. Now all members of the League of Strong Families are my brothers.
[Public Chat] Half a Cup of Lovesickness: Flowing Light, your husband is awesome. [Heart Eyes] No wonder they envy you and attack you here.
Zheng Xiaoguang exclaimed secretly, Bluegreen-Clad is always so awesome. "No wonder so many female players get crazy for him. Well, looks like it'll be hard being his wife."
As Bluegreen-Clad promised her to take care of everything, Zheng Xiaoguang did not ask him any question about how he would honor his promise. Bluegreen-Clad seemed to be content with her att.i.tude. He even put her on his own team and took her to gain levels together.
"I'm just a level 80 doctor and clearly not well-matched to a G.o.d-like player who has the highest level in the game. I should focus on gaining levels for myself now", Zheng Xiaoguang sighed and then followed Bluegreen-Clad's team to upgrade herself.
Both Bluegreen-Clad and Blooming Pear Tree were level 100 players, but the former had acc.u.mulated more experience than the latter. Now Bluegreen-Clad had enough experience to upgrade to level 105, and his teammates were all around level 100. They needed to go to regions suitable for level 100 players to gain levels fast, but it was too hard for Flowing Light to gain levels there since monsters there were above level 100. Given this, Bluegreen-Clad led his team to a region of level 90 monsters.
It was quite awkward for them to gain levels here. A level 80 player like Flowing Light and a level 100 player like Bluegreen-Clad were only able to acc.u.mulate half of the experience points they got here. Despite that, the teammates who were above level 95 just followed Bluegreen-Clad to this region and did not say anything for the sake of their friends.h.i.+p in the beginning.
An hour later, someone started to complain.
[Team] Son of Heaven: Hey, boss, are we going to slay level 90 monsters here all day? Now we're about to reach level 100. For us, double experience here is the same as the regular experience we gain at a level 100 region. Why do we have to waste our time like this?
[Team Captain] Bluegreen-Clad: We'll leave when Flowing Light reaches level 90.
One hour had pa.s.sed, and Flowing Light was only level 82.
[Team] Son of Heaven: Sigh, come on, boss. Why do you act like Cloud Top after getting married? Do you guys really think that you need to pamper your wives like that? If you continue to do so, you'll become someone like Cloud Top someday.
Son of Heaven was a warrior. A warrior was good at fighting one-on-one battles but had limited attack range. A magician, like Bluegreen-Clad, was able to cause Area Effect Damage to slay all monsters on the screen at once. Given this, Son of Heaven was busy running around and pulling monsters to a spot for Bluegreen-Clad all the time. Every time he came back to the spot, he would see Flowing Light say with Bluegreen-Clad, doing nothing.
Son of Heaven could acc.u.mulate only half of the experience points he got in this level 90 region, and there was a member on his team who did nothing. He roughly calculated and found out that during the past hour, he had acc.u.mulated even less than half of the experience points he could get in a region suitable for him.
[Team Captain] Bluegreen-Clad: You guys can withdraw from the team and go to level 100 regions to gain levels. I'll take Flowing Light to a level 80 region.
Bluegreen-Clad was clear that his teammates were not satisfied with the experience points they got here, but he really wanted to help Flowing Light to gain levels fast. Although he had promised to protect her, he could not be online all the time. Sometimes, Flowing Light had to rely on herself.
[Team] Flowing Light: I'll withdraw from the team.
She knew what Son of Heaven meant. Her big brother Blooming Pear Tree did not like Cloud Top, the gang boss of the Sacred Temple, and his wife Saori because every time he gained levels and slew monsters together with them, Saori would just stay idle all the time.
Cloud Top was an archer from Flying Island. As an archer was good at long-range attacks, a warrior like Blooming Pear Tree had to stay in the front slaying monsters. Saori was the doctor of the team, but she only refilled blood for her husband and herself. Most of the time, she just stayed still as if she was away from the keyboard. As a result, Blooming Pear Tree had to rely on his own equipment to protect himself, such as "Blissful Pills" (red pills used to refill blood).
As the teammates of Blooming Pear Tree and Cloud Top were all highly skilled, they were able to gain levels without the help of Saori. Although they were quite dissatisfied with her performance, they never said anything.
One day when they had been fighting a powerful monster together, Blooming Pear Tree had gotten killed by the monster. Blooming Pear Tree asked Saori to bring him back to life, but Cloud Top asked Blooming Pear Tree to resurrect himself with his Revival Talisman as Saori was away from the keyboard and watching TV at that moment.
Blooming Pear Tree flared up. If it had not been for the fact that he had consumed all his Revival Talismans for this week, he would have never asked that useless doctor Saori to help him. That Saori did not know when to help her teammates to add blood. He kicked Saori out of the team and added Flowing Light to the team to save him.
Although Flowing Light's level was lower than that of Saori and could not add as much blood as Saori did, the team slew monsters faster than before (This was because the team members did not have to pause to take their red pills). In the end, after they slaying a powerful enemy, they unlocked a level 80 doctor's sword.
The team thought that they should give this sword to Flowing Light although she was still at level 75, as she was well versed in positioning and helped the team a lot more than that Saori did. They checked the contributions and confirmed this judgment.
Right at this moment, Saori was back. She coaxed and pestered her husband, Sacred TempleメCloud Top, trying to get the sword. Flowing Light thought that she just came here to help her big brother and that sword's level was too high for her, so she persuaded her big brother to give it to Sacred TempleメCloud Top. After this incident, Blooming Pear Tree refused to team up with that couple again. It was probably also because of this that he chose to ally himself with the League of Strong Families instead of the Sacred Temple.
Flowing Light did not like that Saori either and would never want to become someone like her. She had tried to pull some monsters for Bluegreen-Clad under "Moonlight①" right after she had been added to his team, but she nearly got herself killed since her character was too fragile. As her level was low and her equipment was not very good, no matter how hard she tried to refill blood for herself, she could hardly succeed. Upon seeing that, Bluegreen-Clad forbade her from going out to pull monsters anymore and asked her to stay with him.
Zheng Xiaoguang felt uneasy to stay idle. Upon seeing that Son of Heaven compared her to Saori, she felt that she could not stay here anymore. She did not want to be a burden for Bluegreen-Clad. She was never a shameless person.
[Team Captain] Bluegreen-Clad: Stay here. Let them leave. I'll take you to gain levels.
[Team] Flowing Light: No, thanks. I have my regular team. They're calling me now. You and Son of Heaven can leave for level 100 regions.
[Team Captain] Bluegreen-Clad: Okay.
With these words, the character Bluegreen-Clad stood up, slew the last group of monsters nearby and then threw 10 Double Orders and 10 Captain Orders to Flowing Light.
s.h.i.+ny Sky gave every player 5 double-experience hours every week. Apart from that, a player could also use a Double Order, a piece of equipment bought from the shop, to give himself or herself one more double-experience hour. A Captain Order, also a piece of equipment bought from the shop, could increase all the team members' experience points by 20% within one hour, but only a team captain was able to use Captain Orders. A player could use these two kinds of equipment for a limited number of times a week.
[Team] Flowing Light: Uhm, I don't need them. My big brother has given me lots of Double Orders.
Blooming Pear Tree had given her a lot of equipment, but as she had been busy with gaining levels for his big brother and she had not consumed those things yet.
[Team Captain] Bluegreen-Clad: Give them back to him. Use the equipment I gave you.
Note:
①Moonlight: Moonlight is a doctor skill, which gives a player a protective cover. This cover can absorb and reduce damage for the player.
