Chapter 39 Chapter38- You're Leveling a Bit Slowly
Silverglow,
In a room of a certain inn.
John tried on the robe and trousers Emma and White Feather had bought for him.
"Hmm, not bad, they fit pretty well."
White Feather looked him, remarked, "It's a pity that both of these are newbie Equip, only level 1, without attribute bonuses... But you can wear them for now, later we will take you to the Trade Association for a proper one."
John chuckled, "There's no need for all that, level 1 Equip is pretty good. At least it covers me, hahaha."
An hour ago, the three of them arrived at this inn in Silverglow.
It was only after they arrived here that the two ladys discovered that beneath John's cloak, he wore only a ragged prisoner's uniform, leaving him nearly naked.
This caused John quite a bit of embarrassment, but the two girls didn't say anything and directly bought him a set of newbie Equip, avoiding the embarrassment of John accidentally exposing himself.
White Feather crossed her arms, saying pensively,
"I still can't believe that you, without a single piece of Equip on, could defeat The Devil Corpse. It's just unreasonable."
Emma nodded in agreement,
"Yeah, normally powerful players either rely on rare talents or skills, or powerful weapons and Equip... John, you don't have any Equip, could it be that your attributes are already that powerful?"
John chuckled and said to them,
"I have to keep that a secret. If you knew too much about me, it would only be detrimental and bring no benefit to you at your current level..."
Upon thinking it over, John felt that he indeed should get some suitable Equip.
After all, in this game, Equip provided a significant boost to a character.
If he managed to get some, his strength would undoubtedly increase significantly.
The urgency to improve his strength came from his knowledge of a major secret about this gaming event after successfully defeating The Devil and escaping the temple.
This secret involved gods, implicated entities of very high rank, and even determined the future of the real world...
Just learning of this secret could cause a normal player to drop dead instantly.
Therefore, John had to find a way to investigate this secret, he still had many things to do.
Enhancing his own strength was also because John wanted to have everything within his control.
As long as he was strong enough, he could prevent anything bad from happening!
John looked at White Feather and Emma and suddenly spoke,
"Both of you are at level 49 now? It seems you'll reach level 50 soon."
Upon hearing John say this, Emma responded with a mixture of pride and excitement,
"Yeah, Johnny, White Feather and I have been working hard at leveling up!"
"I've heard that many expert players haven't reached our level yet!"
John patted Emma's head, smiling,
"Very impressive. But you're right, even a top player like Blue Sea or Adam is only at level 49, there's hardly anyone in the game above level 50..."
Emma cut him off, correcting him with a serious look,
"Johnny, you're wrong, it's not that there aren't any players above level 50, the 'Anonymous Player' on the leaderboard has already reached level 50 a while ago."
John laughed, "Right, right, you're correct, I misspoke."
At this point, White Feather spoke up,
"Thanks to Emma, our leveling journey has been very smooth. I'm just riding on her coattails... her ability as a Hellfire Mage for leveling up is just too strong, especially for grinding mobs."
Emma said, "Sis, you don't need to be so modest. If it weren't for your class as a Silver Knight, we wouldn't have been able to get so many suitable leveling quests! Not to mention the amount of Silver Tears you've provided..."
John watched the two women praising each other and spoke,
"I know both of you are great, really great... Then, I'll take you two for leveling up, with the aim to get you both to level 50 by the end of the day!"
White Feather and Emma were both taken aback.
White Feather said, "Boss, you're not joking with us, are you?"
"What do you mean?" John was a little confused.
Why would him offering to level them up sound like a joke?
Emma explained, "Johnny, we know you're amazing, but even you can't just make up stuff!"
"To level up from 49 to 50, we need a total of 50 million Exp points! White Feather and I only recently reached level 49, and we have about 1 million Exp points each. No matter how hard we farm today, we can't possibly reach level 50!"
White Feather also chimed in,
"Yeah, Galewind, even with the boost from Silver Tears and hunting the highest XP monsters, we only get 5,000 XP per monster... We've calculated that if we level up diligently, we might reach level 50 within a week..."
"This pace is already very fast, possibly even faster than some full-time expert players."
Hearing White Feather's explanation, John chuckled and shook his head.
"You're saying it's fast, but that's only relatively fast compared to regular players."
"With me, leveling up won't be a problem. Although I can't guarantee that I can always assist you, getting you both to level 50 as soon as possible is quite important..."
"Your leveling up is slow now because the 'Silver Tears' you're using aren't good enough."
"White Feather, take out the 'Silver Tears' you're currently using and let me have a look."
White Feather and Emma exchanged glances.
It was the first time they had heard someone say they were leveling slowly.
But both of them trusted John implicitly, so if he asked them to take out the Silver Tears, they would do so.
White Feather took out a bottle of "Silver Tears" from her inventory and placed it on the table.
John picked it up and looked at it, shaking his head and saying,
"These are all Uncommon 'Silver Tears', they only grant 3 times the original XP. No wonder your leveling up is somewhat slow..."
This left White Feather and Emma a bit surprised.
White Feather smiled wryly, "Boss, these Uncommon 'Silver Tears' are already hard for us to come by, we can't afford any higher quality for now."
John asked, "Didn't you make a lot of money from auctioning the 'Ancient Parchment'? Why are you short on money?"
Faced with John's question, White Feather stammered, seemingly finding it hard to speak.
Seeing this, Emma stepped in, "White Feather has her own needs for money, Johnny, we can't spend all our money in the game, right?"
John nodded.
He didn't care about how White Feather and Emma spent their money.
After all, it was their private property and none of his business.
"Well then, use this for your next leveling up."
With that, John took out a bottle of "Silver Tears" from his inventory.
Upon seeing this "Silver Tears", both women couldn't help but scream.
Because what was in front of them was a Legendary "Silver Tear"!
...
Outside a room in the inn, a couple happened to be passing by.
They clearly heard the screams of two young girls coming from the room.
Immediately after, a man's voice came from inside the room:
"Shh! Keep it down, don't let others hear."
The couple was instantly stunned.
The male player looked at his girlfriend and commented, "Wow, that's a guy with two girls, a real player! Impressive!"
The female player gave him a look and said,
"What they do in their own room and with how many girls is none of your business. What, are you envious of him?"
The male player chuckled, "Of course not, I have you and that's enough."
Having said that, he hugged his girlfriend and they continued up the stairs.
...
Inside the room.
"I've seen this before, at the auction!" Emma covered her mouth, lowering her voice in astonishment.
Of course, Emma remembered this item.
Back then, Blue Sea had spent a lot of money to buy just ten drops.
It's worth quite a fortune!
