19: Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, a pair of dogs and bitches

Night had completely fallen, and Xuanfu Base City was shrouded in a mysterious veil.

After careful consideration, Lin Ling decided to give Ji Mo a chance.

He couldn't always work alone; the path of job advancement was still long.

Many materials could only be obtained in dungeons or as event rewards; they couldn't be bought on the market, even with money.

And most of those dungeons and events required a team to participate, so he would eventually need a team of his own.

Over the past three years, although Lin Ling had only met Ji Mo once, he considered him a friend worth getting to know deeply.

Aside from his somewhat deadly mouth, there was basically nothing to criticize about him.

If he was willing to give up the Kunpeng Guild and form a team with him, then helping him level up wasn't out of the question.

Just five minutes later, Lin Ling received a call from Ji Mo.

"Brother Lin, Xuanfu Base City airspace is under control."

"They said a foreign Grand Magus appeared today, so my plane can't enter the city."

"How about this, you wait for me at the square outside the North High-Speed Rail Station."

As soon as the call connected, Ji Mo's voice came through impatiently.

"You're here so fast?" Lin Ling was a little surprised.

"Hehe! You'll know when you get here, bro's upgraded his gear."

"Let me tell you, if it weren't for the fact that killing monsters with hot weapons doesn't give experience, I'd probably be Five-turn by now."

"Hurry up and come, hurry up and come, I'll enjoy the night view of Xiao first, if I go down, I'll be surrounded."

Beep beep beep…

Ji Mo hung up the phone directly after saying his snarky remark.

Lin Ling rubbed his nose; that guy was always so full of himself.

He put on his helmet, started the motorcycle, and headed north.

The North High-Speed Rail Station was outside Xuanfu Base City, so to reach it, one had to pass through the North Gate.

But as soon as Lin Ling arrived at the North Gate, he found that there were many vehicles ahead, and the driving speed had become very slow.

At this moment, there were also two other riders on motorcycles beside him.

Lin Ling was on the far left, and the figure in the middle was clearly a Miss. She was wearing a blue mage robe but carried a blue priest's staff on her back.

This was clearly a Miss Priestess. From her curves and long legs, she should be considered a beauty.

Her ride was also a domestic off-road vehicle worth tens of thousands of yuan.

Next to this woman, a retro Indian Roadmaster was far more eye-catching.

The two clearly knew each other; although they wore helmets, the Roadmaster kept talking to the woman in the middle.

Even in July, the weather, even in the north, was unusually hot and stuffy.

The cool breeze that finally appeared at night was completely blocked by the helmet.

Seeing that the traffic ahead wasn't moving, the female archer-priest in the middle suddenly took off her helmet, revealing a head of long hair like a black waterfall.

Although this woman's looks couldn't compare to Zhou Mengyan after her successful awakening, she was definitely a beauty.

Lin Ling glanced at her and then focused his gaze on the rider on the far side.

This person was slender and short, no more than 1.7 meters tall.

Noticing Lin Ling's gaze, he immediately took off his helmet, revealing a rather delicate face, with a thumb-thick gold chain around his neck that was particularly dazzling.

"Youran, don't be angry. I really have nothing with that Miss just now. She just saw my car was nice and wanted a ride."

The boy said to the beauty beside him, then suddenly saw Lin Ling. When he scanned the "white gear" on Lin Ling's body and the domestic off-road motorcycle he was riding, a look of superiority immediately appeared on his face.

"Hello, friend, my name is Wang Zifan, a Level 6 Assassin with A-grade talent. Are you interested in leveling up together? Don't look at me as an Assassin; it only takes 10 seconds to kill a Mage."

When he mentioned his A-grade talent, Wang Zifan couldn't help but raise his chin, his pride completely undisguised.

It was no wonder, really; several thousand people participated in the awakening in Xuanfu Base City today, and according to statistics, only about twenty people had A-grade or higher talent.

Moreover, a powerful Assassin was crucial for a team. In many special dungeons, the importance of an Assassin even surpassed that of a Warrior.

An Assassin with A-grade talent was already considered a top-tier Assassin.

Out of politeness, Lin Ling nodded, lifted his visor, and said, "Thanks, no need."

However, what Lin Ling didn't expect was that the woman looked at Lin Ling with a curious expression.

"Hello, I'm Jiang Youran from Xuanfu No. 1 Middle School, a Level 7 Priestess with A+ grade talent. Handsome, have we met before? Are you interested in getting to know each other? If fate allows, we can level up together. My heals are very strong, you know."

Lin Ling was a little speechless; he hadn't even taken off his helmet, so why was this woman so enthusiastic about him?

However, he had heard of Jiang Youran; she was the school beauty of No. 2 Middle School and had once applied for the Ya Zi Reserve Team but failed the assessment.

Jiang Youran seemed to be facing Lin Ling, but her eyes were always on Wang Zifan.

Lin Ling instantly understood; this woman clearly wanted to use him to annoy Wang Zifan.

Lin Ling had no interest in such women.

He nodded slightly again and pulled down his visor.

This scene immediately made Wang Zifan's face darken. He didn't know if he was angry that Lin Ling ignored Jiang Youran, or if he was annoyed that Jiang Youran was flirting with Lin Ling.

He shouted at Lin Ling, "Brother, your Level 1 white gear looks really cool tonight! I'll give you fifty thousand for it, sell it to me."

As these words left his mouth, Wang Zifan's face was full of mockery.

Lin Ling didn't look back, slightly twisted the throttle, and drove forward.

Wang Zifan saw that he was ignoring him and couldn't help but smirk.

"Brother, what's wrong? Not selling for fifty thousand? How about a hundred thousand? Two hundred thousand?"

"Brother, are you selling or not? If not, I'll add more. If you are, then never mind."

Hearing his words, Jiang Youran immediately burst into laughter, swaying like a flower.

"Oh, you're so naughty! Don't bully the little brother. Maybe he's a life-skill professional; it's quite difficult to get a full set of Level 1 white gear."

Her words seemed to be a dissuasion, but they were full of sarcasm.

Wang Zifan became even more smug, stretching his neck and shouting at Lin Ling, "Brother, do you want to level up with us? I'll show you what a high-level player is."

"Brother, don't be scared."

The cars in front suddenly sped up, and the congestion eased. Lin Ling, suppressing his speechlessness, turned his head and glanced at the two of them, his eyes clearly looking at two idiots.

These two were truly a pair of "Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chick," a perfect match of scoundrels.

With a roar of the engine, Lin Ling's car instantly drove out of the North City Gate.

"Honey, what was that look?" Jiang Youran cooed.

Wang Zifan's face immediately darkened: "Let's go, chase him! How dare he look down on us? Today, I'll let him know what a master is."

The two said this and quickly chased after Lin Ling, and soon they saw Lin Ling's figure.

It wasn't that they were fast, but that Lin Ling had already parked his car by the square outside the high-speed rail station.

"Boy, why are you loitering in the square instead of leveling up? Want to try my Roadmaster, brother? See it? Retro version, the bare car alone costs over 300,000."

Wang Zifan came up to Lin Ling, patted his ride, and said proudly.

He had already decided that as long as Lin Ling dared to touch his car, he would definitely extort a hefty sum from this poor guy.

However, Lin Ling didn't even acknowledge him; he was currently looking towards the center of the square.

Wang Zifan was about to get angry when his arm was suddenly tugged by Jiang Youran.

He turned around and realized that there were quite a few people gathered in the square at the moment, a dense crowd seemingly watching something.

Wang Zifan couldn't help but look curiously into the square, and the next second, both he and Jiang Youran's eyes lit up simultaneously.

A white hover car was suspended two meters above the ground, and a golden-haired boy leaped directly out of the car door.

"See that? A G-model hover car, fifteen million a piece."

"Wow, that golden-haired boy is so handsome."

"I wish I could know someone like that."

A chorus of envious voices immediately arose from the crowd.
