Bang!! "
With a shattering sound, the huge Deadwood Elite turned into a series of data fragments and disappeared into the air. At the same time, a treasure chest that emitted a faint glow appeared in front of Fangzheng.
Fangzheng opened the treasure chest and touched it ….
"It's a shield."
Fangzheng raised the shield in his hand and waved it at everyone. He then looked at Qingye.
"It's yours."
"Eh … Eh eh eh!?"
Qingye screamed when she saw the shield that Fangzheng handed over. She stared at Fangzheng anxiously with her eyes wide open.
"But, but, but … I didn't do anything … I just helped Miss Black Cat and Miss Asuna block the mobs. Mr. Fangzheng, you can have this shield …."
"I use a two-handed sword, so this shield is useless to me. Esther and Lestia can't use it either. You're the only one here who uses a shield. "
"But …."
Qingye looked at Lestia and Esther with a troubled expression, then turned to Black Cat for help. Black Cat shook her head.
"I prefer a scimitar …. A shield is a burden to me."
"Then …."
Hearing the black cat's answer, Qingye looked at Asuna again, but this time before she could speak, Fangzheng interrupted her.
"She's not in a party, so she can't get the equipment."
"…."
Asuna snorted and turned her head away when she heard Fangzheng's words.
"Then … I'll accept it. Thank you, Mr. Fangzheng."
"You're welcome."
Fangzheng opened his inventory and handed the shield to Qingye. He waved his hand.
"Although your skills aren't the best among us, you have a good foundation. If you don't have enough skills, you can make up for it with equipment.
However, looking at Fangzheng's back, Lestia shook her head slightly and whispered to Esther.
"Esther, this is the eighth time Master has opened the Deadwood Elite chest, right?"
"Yes."
"… But there's still no two-handed greatsword … .Our equipment is almost complete, but Master still hasn't looted anything …."
"… Cough cough."
Fangzheng coughed, interrupting the whispers of the two behind him. Don't open the wound and pour salt on it, okay? It would have been fine if his luck was bad and he couldn't get anything good. However, he had looted eight times in a row, and all he got were other people's equipment. A rapier, a longsword, a leather armour, a pair of boots …. Fangzheng had originally thought that it would be his turn this time.
In the end, it was a shield...
Am I born to do good deeds?
This reminded Fangzheng of the time when he played World of Warcraft in his previous life. As a Hunter, he always looted Mage equipment, and he could almost gather a full set in a single dungeon run. Because of this, the Mage girls in his party even jokingly called him the Mage's Friend.
mmp！
Next time, I'll let Esther loot it. That girl is a fair European from head to toe, she should be able to loot something good ….
Esther and Lestia were both using the rare blue weapons from the Deadwood Elite chest, but only Fangzheng was still using the ordinary grey weapon. Well, this two-handed greatsword was something Fangzheng had to buy from a Blacksmith in the Town of Beginnings because he couldn't loot any equipment ….
Otherwise, he would only be able to fight elites with a beginner weapon. That would be too embarrassing.
"Alright, let's talk business."
After handing the shield to Greenleaf, Fangzheng coughed and pulled the topic back. He looked at the three girls in front of him seriously and said, "You can make your choice now.
"Now you can make a choice. Do you want to join my team or leave?"
"I want to join."
Black Cat was the first to raise her hand. Then, she smiled evilly.
"I can feel the entanglement of fate between us. This is the fate of our past lives …. We are destined to meet here, so let us follow this fate and fight together!"
"I …. Can I really join?"
Compared to Black Cat, who was full of confidence, Greenleaf was terrified. She held the shield in her hand like a wandering puppy on the street, confused and uneasy.
"I don't have the strength of Miss Black Cat and Miss Asuna …."
"Everyone has their own strengths, and I don't only need warriors like them."
Fangzheng waved his hand.
"I plan to form a guild when we have enough people, but now … we don't even have the minimum number of people. You should know that not everyone in a guild can fight. We need a lot of talents, and your performance just now was far better than you imagined. As long as you're willing to work hard, you'll definitely make progress."
"Then …. I'm willing!"
Hearing this, Greenleaf also made up her mind and nodded firmly.
As for the rest ….
"…."
Fangzheng looked at Asuna, who avoided Fangzheng's gaze. But in the end, she gritted her teeth and said, "I'm willing to join."
"I'm willing to join."
"You're welcome to join."
Hearing Asuna's answer, the corners of Fangzheng's mouth slightly curled up, revealing a strange smile.
"But I have to say something first. I think everyone knows that our goal is to clear the 100th floor and leave this world. To achieve this, we need to put in a lot of effort …. I'm sure you can understand this."
"Of …. Of course."
Although they didn't know why Fangzheng said this, the three still nodded. Seeing their reactions, Fangzheng's smile became more and more "enthusiastic".
"So, next, I will conduct a series of training for you to ensure that you have enough strength to face the challenges. The process may be a little difficult. Are you willing to accept it?"
"I'm willing!"
This time, Asuna was the first to answer. She raised her head and stared at Fangzheng.
"As long as I can become stronger, I'll do anything!"
Very good, sister, this is what you said.
Hearing Asuna's answer, Fangzheng shrugged.
"Don't say things like that, Miss Asuna. I hope you won't regret it."
"I won't regret it."
Asuna obviously didn't listen to Fangzheng's advice. She clenched her fists and bit her lips.
"I want to become stronger, to become even stronger. I will never admit defeat to this world, to this game!"
"Very good."
Hearing this, Fangzheng slightly narrowed his eyes and revealed a strange smile.
"I hope so."
Asuna was indeed very confident. In her opinion, she had already survived the most difficult days in the wilderness, so what could be more difficult than this?
But soon, Fangzheng used his actions to tell her that she was too naive.
In fact, Fangzheng's training only focused on one thing, and that was leveling up.
In this game, a player's HP was only linked to their level, which meant that the higher their level, the more HP they would have, and the higher the tolerance for mistakes. Others might be insta-killed by the boss with one slash, but you could survive two slashes. Don't underestimate the difference between two slashes. It could be the difference between one step to hell and one step to heaven.
And from that day onwards, Asuna's nightmares …/./11 _ 11604/
