44: The temptation of equipment, unexpected harvest
These two Shadow Poison Toads were very cunning; one hid in a burrow, while the other squatted at the entrance, blocking it.
If Liu Yang hadn't been sharp-eyed, he might not have found them.
If someone killed the one on top, and the second one ambushed them the moment they relaxed their guard, it would be extremely difficult to dodge.
The same applied to Liu Yang; no matter how fast his crossbow bolts were, there was still a cooldown period between attacks.
But this didn't faze him.
Liu Yang lightly leaped up and shot an arrow from high above.
Whoosh!
The arrow struck the Shadow Poison Toad directly and pierced straight into the burrow.
“You have pierced the body of the Shadow Poison Toad with an arrow, triggering the Second Kill skill. The Shadow Poison Toad self-destructs. The Shadow Poison Toad has died.”
“Congratulations on killing the Shadow Poison Toad. You have obtained phoenix flower x3, corrosion grass x2, nine-petal lily of the valley x2, and Spiritual Energy x1.”
“You have pierced the head of the Shadow Poison Toad with an arrow, triggering the Second Kill skill. The Shadow Poison Toad self-destructs. The Shadow Poison Toad has died.”
“Congratulations on killing the Shadow Poison Toad. You have obtained shadow poison toad skin x1, blood-sucking wood x4, chicken heart fruit x1, and Spiritual Energy x1.”
Killing two monsters with one arrow, a smile played on Liu Yang's lips.
He also understood that the drop rate for shadow poison toad skin wasn't 100% per monster, but the drop rate was still acceptable.
However, another question arose: why were all the herb-type materials dropped by poison-attributed monsters?
The Dungeon Corpse Cats were like this.
The Shadow Poison Toads were also like this.
And the scene of him instantly killing the two Shadow Poison Toads was witnessed by those watching the live stream, causing an instant uproar.
“Are these really Level 16 monsters?”
“Why do they feel similar to Level 6 ones?”
“No, Level 6 is already very powerful. It should be Level 3.”
“Could it be…”
“Based on my many years of gaming experience, the reason Da Lao is so powerful is largely related to his equipment.”
“Little fairy, quickly tell me, what level is Da Lao's equipment? He can wipe out two Level 16 monsters with one arrow?”
“Begging to buy awesome weapons and equipment, even if it means going bankrupt.”
“Little fairy, please help me ask Da Lao if his equipment is crafted from blueprints or dropped as finished products. If it's crafted, what's the selling price?”
“Little fairy, please help.”
“Little fairy, please help.”
The power of Liu Yang's single arrow made people think his equipment was incredibly powerful.
No one would know that he relied on the Second Kill skill.
And when Guan Ningyan saw everyone so covetous of Liu Yang's equipment, she instantly beamed with joy.
“I see many people want to know the attributes of Da Lao's equipment.”
“Coincidentally, Da Lao gave me a weapon for self-defense when I went out this morning.”
“Here, I can tell everyone in advance that this is an Excellent-grade weapon, and its attributes are very powerful.”
“I will list the specific information on the Auction House. Friends who want to know can go and check it out themselves.”
“Oh, right, just search for ‘Excellent Wind Spirit Crossbow’.”
And so.
Guan Ningyan switched to the Auction House page and listed the weapon.
“Auction House”
“Seller: Guan Ningyan.”
“Item for Trade: Excellent Wind Spirit Crossbow.”
“Requirement: auspicious grass x10.”
“Stock: 1.”
“Excellent Wind Spirit Crossbow: An excellent weapon for beginners. Fast firing speed, long range, powerful, easy to operate. With it, you can basically roam freely in the Initial Dungeon, except for a few specific targets.”
As Guan Ningyan listed the weapon, the crossbow's attributes were immediately displayed to everyone.
“Can roam freely in the Dungeon? Is that true or false?”
“Can the information displayed by the system be wrong? But the specifics still need to be verified personally.”
“Want, want, want, want, want, want… Desperately want.”
“Little fairy, please help ask Da Lao again, how much does this weapon sell for? Also, what about the matching arrows?”
Guan Ningyan was about to answer.
Suddenly, two notification sounds stunned her.
“New Constant Yui has traded with you. You have obtained auspicious grass x10.”
“New Constant Yui has traded with you. You have obtained auspicious grass x2.”
At the same time.
A private message, particularly conspicuous, flashed before Guan Ningyan.
The sender of the message was New Constant Yui.
“Hello, Miss Guan! Please forgive my presumptuousness in buying your weapon.”
“From the price you set, you should be satisfied with this transaction.”
“Therefore, I brazenly ask you to communicate with Liu-kun and trouble him to make some more arrows for me. I beg you.”
After clearly reading the content of the message, Guan Ningyan had only one thought at this moment.
A rich woman.
Definitely a rich woman.
From her conversation with Liu Yang last night, the materials he listed were extremely rare.
In his words, trading one crossbow for two items was a small profit, and for three items, it was a big profit.
Now, she had twelve auspicious grass thrown at her at once; she was practically rich.
If she hadn't remembered she was live-streaming, she would have jumped up with joy.
Realizing the timing wasn't right, she forced herself to calm down.
Then, with a normal expression, she replied to New Constant Yui.
“Hello, Sister Jieyi, I will talk to Da Lao about the arrows, but it might be a bit later.”
“Hmm, I understand. Liu-kun is currently in combat, so I will wait until he finishes.”
“That's good. Then let's end our chat here for now. We'll contact each other later.”
Ending the private chat and returning to the world channel, it had exploded again.
“Oh my goodness, why did the weapon disappear as soon as it was listed?”
“Yeah, I wanted to check it out too, but I didn't even see a shadow of the weapon.”
“Little fairy, don't take it down so quickly! Many people haven't seen it yet. Please list it again.”
Looking at the string of requests to re-list on the Auction House, Guan Ningyan said with a smile:
“I'm sorry, my friends, I really want to list it now, but I can't.”
“Because… because the weapon has already been bought.”
As soon as these words were spoken, people instantly became agitated.
“It sold so quickly? You're not lying to us, are you?”
“Did you set the price too low? Do you have any spares?”
“By the way, does anyone know what auspicious grass is? Where can I get it?”
“Is the Da Lao who bought the weapon here? Please tell everyone.”
“The little fairy said it was listed for everyone to see, so for you to suddenly buy it is a bit unreasonable.”
“Yeah, that's too selfish.”
Seeing everyone's comments getting more and more off-topic, Guan Ningyan quickly stepped in to mediate.
“Alright, regarding the weapon, when Da Lao has time, I'll ask him to craft another one and list it, and also ask him about the specific selling price.”
“Once I understand clearly, I will tell everyone.”
“So, please don't get excited, just wait patiently. Let's continue the live stream; Da Lao has already gone far.”
After speaking, Guan Ningyan no longer paid attention to the chat and went straight after Liu Yang.
In the time that followed.
Liu Yang focused on fighting monsters.
And Guan Ningyan diligently continued her live stream.
They had gone an unknown distance deeper.
They were still in the Shadow Poison Toad area, with no sign of passing through.
The prolonged combat had left Liu Yang feeling a bit mentally fatigued.
After killing the Shadow Poison Toad in front of him, he retreated slightly to rest.
“Alright, my friends, Da Lao is taking a break. I'm going to discuss something with him, so the live stream will be paused for a bit. See you later.”
Guan Ningyan seized the opportunity to turn off the live stream and excitedly pounced towards Liu Yang.
This is the first bonus chapter since the book started. I'm sorry, I've been a lazy fish. But my boss said not to update too quickly, so I couldn't help it.
But don't worry, once the new book period is over, I will speed up the updates.
Also, those who can see this are all old friends with a certain level of poison resistance. Here, I thank you all for your unwavering support, thank you!!!
