285: Chapter 285 Professional Services of a Top-Tier Team
This time, Arrow of the Moon didn't reply instantly.
After a while, just as Chen You was thinking about whether to send it again, a party invitation popped up.
[Player "Arrow of the Moon" has invited you to join the party. Do you accept?]
Chen You casually clicked accept.
The party list appeared on the left side of the interface.
[Leader]: Arrow of the Moon (LV91)
[Member]: Salos (LV92)
[Member]: Oro (LV91)
[Member]: Chen You (LV32)
[Party][Salos]: Am I seeing things? Brother Chen, weren't you just level 27 yesterday?
[Party][Oro]: Level 32... Is this really not a bug?
Arrow of the Moon didn't speak, but seeing this scene, she was equally shocked and speechless.
[Party][Salos]: Brother Chen, level with us. Did you find some hidden experience bug?
Salos's eagerness could be felt even through the screen.
Chen You was currently slumped on the sofa in the Supreme Tower, too lazy to even lift his eyelids, replying weakly.
[Party][Chen You]: What bug? I just farmed monsters. I'm exhausted. If any of you are free, open the dungeon.
Salos and Oro replied almost simultaneously.
[Party][Salos]: I'll go open it!
[Party][Oro]: Going now!
However, before they could move, Arrow of the Moon also sent a message.
[Party][Arrow of the Moon]: I've already arrived. Opening it now.
Salos and Oro both cursed in the channel at the same time.
[Party][Salos]: Arrow of the Moon, you scheming woman, did you go there in advance?
[Party][Oro]: Despicable! Didn't we agree to research the dungeon strategy together?
Arrow of the Moon ignored them completely and sent the dungeon invitation directly.
As the white light faded, Chen You's figure appeared at the entrance of the anniversary dungeon, "Colorful Land."
It was still a dreamlike rainbow scene.
Chen You's face was slightly pale, with faint dark circles under his eyes; he truly looked as if he had been "drained" by some mysterious power.
Salos and the other two gathered around, and seeing Chen You like this, their hearts skipped a beat.
"Brother Chen, you..."
Salos was so shocked his eyes nearly popped out, "How can you be so lacking in moderation!"
Chen You: "..."
Oro shook his head with a solemn expression: "Brother Chen must have overdrawn his future blessings and used some forbidden metaphysical secret technique to end up like this."
Chen You opened his mouth, wanting to explain that he was simply tired from playing games.
But seeing the "I understand, I totally understand, don't force yourself" expressions on the three of them, he silently swallowed his words.
Forget it, let it be.
Chen You followed their lead and sighed, "No matter, I'll have to rely on you guys to kill the monsters."
"No problem! You can even lie down and take a nap!" Salos guaranteed, patting his chest.
Then, as if remembering something, he suddenly pulled something out of his backpack.
*Clang!*
A massive wheelchair, emitting a dark-gold luster and wrapped in thick animal skins, appeared on the grass.
[Rest of the Macho Man Β· Myriad Beast Throne]
No attribute bonuses, Movement Speed -10%.
However, it greatly increases energy recovery speed and can be used in combat.
"Come, Brother Chen, sit in this!" Salos said with a face full of pride, "This is a treasure I dug up from a ruin. Although it doesn't add attributes, it's truly comfortable to sit in."
"I usually can't bear to take it out."
Seeing this, Oro's eyes twitched slightly, and he cursed Salos for being shameless in his heart.
Not to be outdone, he fished out an exquisite crystal bottle from his robes, containing a milky-white liquid.
"This is the 'Holy Light Baptism Undiluted Liquid' passed down secretly by the Oracle Church. Although it's no longer useful for people of our level, for a level thirty player, it's a divine medicine for strengthening the foundation and restoring mental energy."
"Brother Chen, drink a bottle first to calm your nerves."
Chen You looked at the throne and the divine medicine before him and fell into deep thought.
He felt that he didn't look like a player right now, but rather like a paralyzed old master being served by several filial sons.
"Alright then." Chen You wasn't polite either and plopped down onto the throne.
Not to mention, although the Titan race's aesthetics were wild, this chair was indeed ergonomic; the ring of soft fur wrapped his back snugly.
He took the Holy Light Baptism Undiluted Liquid and took a sip.
Not bad, it was strawberry flavored.
Arrow of the Moon stood to the side, watching the two guild leaders fawning like lackeys.
She had originally wanted to maintain her cold and aloof persona, but in the end, she only silently slid a sachet engraved with runes from her sleeve and hung it on the throne's armrest.
"Made from Moon Goddess Grass, it can soothe the mind." She was concise, but the tips of her ears were slightly red.
Chen You leaned back in the chair and waved his hand: "Let's go!"
"Wait a moment!"
Salos suddenly reached out to stop everyone, his expression as serious as if he were attending his own funeral.
"How so?" Chen You raised an eyebrow.
"Brother Chen, I've summarized the lessons from the previous two times," Salos analyzed solemnly.
"Last time, we only offered sacrifices to the heavens after finishing the boss, which was like mending the fold after the sheep were stolen. That's why we didn't get the equipment we wanted."
Hearing this, Oro nodded in deep agreement: "Salos has a point."
Arrow of the Moon held her longbow, a flash of agreement also appearing in her cold eyes: "Then what do you mean?"
"Sacrifice to the heavens first, then start the fight!" Salos said forcefully.
Chen You: "?"
For the next ten minutes, Chen You witnessed what was called a "Grand Exhibition of Mental Hospital Behavior by Top Experts."
Salos cleared a large area at the dungeon entrance, took off his shirt, revealing pectoral muscles thick enough to crush a fly, and began to perform a set of bizarre moves called "Blessing Fist."
Every punch thrown carried the roar of the Titan God Clan, even blowing away the rainbow grass in the vicinity.
"What exactly is he trying to do?" Chen You asked Arrow of the Moon in a low voice.
"He's trying to communicate with the Titan Ancestral Spirits to forcibly lock down the 'luck' of this area," Arrow of the Moon replied expressionlessly, and then she moved as well.
She slowly walked under a candy tree, barefoot, closed her eyes, pressed her palms together, and began chanting.
A cold radiance rose from the top of her head, turning into a crescent moon that dyed everything around them silver-white.
"This is 'Embrace of the Moon Goddess,' it's said to be able to purify negative influences in the surroundings."
As Oro explained, he pulled out a stack of colorful tortoise shells and bone tiles from his pocket.
He laid out a massive hexagram array on the ground and then shut himself inside it.
Shaking a golden bamboo tube in his hand, he muttered to himself like a madman:
"Great luck... it must be great luck... if nothing good drops again, I'll swallow this tube..."
Chen You sat on the throne, holding that bottle of Holy Light Baptism Undiluted Liquid, falling into a long silence.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart; it was truly a miracle that these people could live to level ninety-something.
