85: Chapter 85 The Wandering Merchant Qiao Liu
Keisi roared in pain, then lunged fiercely at Ah Li.
"Watch out!" Jiang He shouted a warning.
Ah Li let out a cold snort and nimbly dodged the attack to the side.
Then, she quickened her pace, running circles around Keisi while launching magic orbs one after another.
It left Keisi dizzy and disoriented for a moment.
Jiang He was left dumbfounded by this scene.
So, his worry was completely unnecessary?
Ah Li was practically crushing the boss!
The key was that she had tactics, right? She even knew how to kite?
Is… is this really still a pet?
How does she feel more agile-minded than a player?
At this moment, Jiang He's blood was also ignited.
He started running alongside Ah Li, circling Keisi and casting Blood Speech Technique.
But the next second, he saw the gap between them.
Keisi suddenly lunged forward; Jiang He didn't even have time to react before he was kicked flying.
His HP instantly dropped to zero.
[Ding, player death detected. Would you like to recharge 1 yuan to revive on the spot?]
"Damn it, recharge."
Fortunately, his recharge function triggered in time, otherwise he really would have been "dying while trying to look cool."
After that, he didn't dare to rush forward impulsively again.
Throughout the entire battle, Keisi had barely touched Ah Li.
It was completely as if she was leading him by the nose while beating him.
Jiang He suddenly felt a bit embarrassed, so he rolled up his sleeves and shouted, "Go, Ah Li!"
At this moment, it seemed he couldn't help with anything other than cheering her on!
While running, Ah Li saw her master cheering her on, and she flashed a sweet smile while winking at Jiang He.
This made Jiang He shudder all over.
He thought to himself: Ah Li is way too good at flirting, right? If he didn't know that Ah Li was a fox demon, this single wink would probably have turned him into a simp on the spot.
The battle lasted for 20 minutes.
Keisi fell down in resentment and unwillingness.
[Congratulations to player Jiang He for killing the Lord-level BOSS, Plague Lord. Rewards: Experience, Gold Coins, BOSS Treasure Chest.]
Looking at the ground, there was a pile of equipment, gems, and game currency.
Ah Li wiped the sweat from her forehead, walked over, and said with a smile, "Master, the monster has been slain."
Jiang He gave a thumbs up: "Awesome!"
At this moment, he had countless questions in his heart.
Why were Ah Li and Keisi the same level of BOSS?
And the opponent's attack power was much higher than Ah Li's?
Yet during the battle, Ah Li completely dominated him?
He asked with confusion.
Ah Li covered her mouth and giggled as she explained.
Upon hearing this, Jiang He was greatly shocked.
It turned out that there were also level divisions among monsters.
But it wasn't the level division on the surface.
First, monsters were divided by quality: Normal, Lord-level, Perfect-level, Legendary-level, and God-level.
And this was just a simple quality distinction; there was something even more inconceivable.
When a monster breaks through to a certain level, it is no longer purely about looking at the surface HP and attack power.
They will advance again.
According to Ah Li, it is Reincarnation.
For example, a Reincarnation Level 1 Normal monster.
Its HP might only be 200, and its attack might only be 100.
But when facing a Level 100, God-level quality BOSS, it could still easily kill it.
Hearing these words, Jiang He felt his head was in a chaotic mess.
According to this theory.
All the BOSSes he had encountered so far were trash?
They couldn't even beat a Level 1 Reincarnation Normal monster?
Then what about them as players? What should they do?
Ah Li saw Jiang He's confusion and chuckled: "Master, don't worry. You humans can naturally reincarnate as well, it's just very difficult."
After saying that, Ah Li's expression changed slightly, and her eyes drifted into the distance as she said:
"He was once an 80-Reincarnation Priest, invincible across the entire Immortal Domain Continent. Sigh..."
"An 80-Reincarnation Priest?" Jiang He nearly dropped his jaw.
The amount of information today was too huge.
This was crucial information; he had to notify Li Dabiao.
Let the country prepare as soon as possible; the levels of players and monsters were simply not as simple as they appeared on the surface.
The difficulties they might face later would be even greater than imagined.
"Who's there!"
Suddenly, Ah Li glanced sharply behind a tree to the side, simultaneously launching a magic orb.
Boom.
"Ouch..."
"Cough, cough..."
A man in a black robe walked out.
He was still using his hands to constantly pat the dust off his body.
"Don't, don't attack. I'm not a bad guy."
This attire?
Jiang He was too familiar with it!
He immediately ran over and asked: "Qiao San? Or Qiao Wu?"
The man in black frowned: "You know my third brother and fifth brother?"
Hearing this, Jiang He rubbed his eyes.
He took a closer look.
[Wandering Merchant · Qiao Liu]
Jiang He was speechless. What kind of weird organization was this?
First there was three, then five, and now here comes six?
"No, how many siblings are you exactly?"
Qiao Liu was clearly displeased, patting the dust off his body: "What siblings? I am me. You guys are too rude. I was just passing by this place, and you didn't even ask before just starting to fight?"
As he spoke, Qiao Liu gave Ah Li an annoyed glare.
"Haha... it's all a misunderstanding. Alright, let's get started!" Jiang He laughed.
Every time he met these Qiao brothers, something good happened.
"Start what? I said I was just passing by."
"..."
Jiang He was confused. How was this Qiao Liu different from the previous two?
His attitude was clearly unfriendly.
"Uh... aren't you a wandering merchant? Don't you want to sell me something? Your third brother said I have the aptitude of a Child of Fortune."
"Bullshit. My third brother is famous for spouting nonsense. You believe his words?"
Jiang He was speechless and didn't intend to waste any more words.
"Fine, fine, fine. I'll just ask, do you have anything to sell?"
"Not selling. I only do business based on whether I like a person; I never do business with those I don't click with. You kid... heh."
"WTF? What do you mean by 'heh'?"
"Heh means you're not worthy."
"Damn it, I don't care. I must buy something from you today. Hurry up and open your backpack for me to see."
Jiang He felt extremely insulted.
He had actually been rejected by an NPC?
Qiao Liu frowned and turned to leave.
At this moment, Jiang He hugged him from behind: "Brother Six, don't go. Just sell me a little bit."
"Hmph, my items are very expensive. You can't afford them."
"Bullshit. I'm the richest person in the entire Chang'an City. If I can't afford it, then you can't do business."
At this moment, the corners of Qiao Liu's mouth under the black mask curled up.
He secretly rejoiced in his heart: As expected, when doing business, you have to keep your posture high. In the past, he acted like a grandson, begging and pleading for players to buy things, but no one paid him any attention?
Now that he had adopted this "I won't do business with you" attitude.
As a result... business came, didn't it?
Boo hoo... Third Brother, Fifth Brother, your little brother has succeeded.
He suppressed his excitement, turned around, and snorted: "Alright, seeing as you are begging like this, I'll grant you a little favor."
The next second, he waved his hand.
A dazzling array of items appeared before Jiang He.
Jiang He gulped hard.
He had countless doubts in his heart: What exactly is the background of this group of wandering merchants? How do they all have so many treasures in their backpacks?
If he were to rob their backpacks?
Wouldn't that be...
Suddenly, his eyes locked onto a certain area, and his pupils constricted instantly.
