Chapter 78: Anxious
Specially Treating All Dissent should not be back for a while.
After this battle, he should realize the absolute gap in attributes. Additionally, since his battle boots were lost, without the Special Skill of Speed, he basically had no chance of competing with Starry.
However, it was quite surprising that Zane was able to use Charge.
According to official announcements, Charge could only be learned from Skill Books before level 50.
It seems he wasn’t the only one to discover Charge.
Unfortunately, he couldn’t use it yet because he hadn’t switched classes, and he didn’t know if Starry would be able to successfully change classes or if she could learn it after that…
Moreover, these people’s reactions were truly too fast!
From how he dodged the first Ice Moon Slash, it was evident, as well as the operation of blocking Frost Claw with their pet.
If it weren’t for the equipment overpowering him, it would be hard to say who would win.
And in the national server, there were definitely no shortage of such players.
It was just the fourth day since launch.
The overall strength of Yunshui City was only at a mid-lower level in the entire national server.
The Human Race had 5 frontline cities, the Beast Race had 3, and the Elf Race also had 3.
Once they reached level 50, the frontline cities would be opened, and thereafter, the three races would converge to resist the Dark Faction; things would become even more chaotic then.
Zane was not arrogant enough to think he could always stay ahead; it was best to use the existing advantages to gather more resources at the start, not just for himself, but his teammates also needed to strengthen to face future situations.
…
“Cute Orange, have you thought about which combat class you want to choose?” While Starry chopped at the Stone Man, Zane and Cute Orange sat on a rock, enjoying the scenery.
Though he felt a bit ashamed to say it, Cute Orange could only cause trouble if she went up.
So the two shamelessly acted as experience babies.
“Is there a class that can make money?”
“Make money? High-level support classes should be able to collect gold, right? Like Priests, Minstrels are very needed in wild teams.”
“Hmm… then I’ll choose Minstrel! You have to take me to level up! Otherwise, no one will want me.”
“Who said before that they wouldn’t let others carry them?”
“Ah! Can’t you give girls a little face?”
…
After a short time, Cute Orange logged off, reportedly because her mother was very strict.
They agreed to grind again tomorrow morning.
However, despite defeating so many Stone Men, they didn’t find a Spirit Stone; if it were that easy to find, others would have already become level 4 Alchemists.
The monsters in this area had also been nearly cleared.
No equipment dropped, but experience increased by nearly 50%, so he should be able to level up tomorrow.
By the way, Star Cat had already leveled up to 16, and her attributes had undergone a qualitative leap!
Returning to town, it was time to find Alna to learn new skills! Almost forgot about this.
…
Walking into the mansion easily, he swaggered in amidst the frightened eyes and murmurs of the guard.
“Why is the young lady sneaking out again? If the general finds out, it will be the end!”
Pushing open the door, Alna looked outside through the window with a worried expression.
Well, a lively girl was almost turning into a melancholic one.
“Ahem, Alna, I’m here to see you!” Zane waved his hand naturally.
That voice was… “Zane Brother!” Alna exclaimed excitedly.
“Shh, be quieter!”
She chuckled, “It’s fine, I told them to stand outside because they were too annoying.”
“That’s good.” Zane almost got scared to death.
“Zane Brother, did you come this time for something? Did you get the Holy Essence Water?”
“Can’t I come see the adorable Alna if there’s nothing going on?” Zane inexplicably wanted to tease.
“…” Alna was speechless, her sparkling eyes fixed on Zane.
Zane felt his face blush under her stare, “Alright, I do have something.”
“Holyflower Village has completely fallen under the territory of the Death Knight, including the Fountain of Life, which has also been seriously polluted.”
Alna’s expression darkened at this, “Is that so…”
“But,” Zane said proudly, “after we defeated the Death Knight, we used the Wishcaster, which is that move of yours—Fiery Wish—to purify a lot of the spring water and brought it back.”
“What? You defeated the Death Knight?”
“I can only say it was a narrow victory… There were various factors involved. After getting the Holy Essence Water, I gave it to Zen to help with making the Holy Spring Brew, the brewing master from Oceanview Village. He’s quite famous; you should know him.”
Alna’s expression stiffened.
“What’s wrong?”
She suddenly became anxious, “Zen is definitely a full-fledged drunkard! Giving him the Holy Essence Water means it’ll be gone for sure! Why didn’t you come to find me first after getting the Holy Essence Water!”
“Ah??” Zane was dumbfounded.
“I can also make the Holy Spring Brew!” Alna declared with conviction.
“…”
…
On the way to Oceanview Village…
Zane transformed into a Gray Wolf, racing swiftly with Starry on his back.
To explain why.
If Alna’s guess was correct, Zen was currently happily drinking and singing!
“But earlier I heard him say he needed to double his efforts tonight…” Zane was unwilling to believe it.
“That was deliberately said for you to hear; this is his usual trick.” Alna seemed to recall something.
“Don’t worry, I still have 49 barrels of Holy Essence Water!” Zane produced the barrels of spring water.
She looked surprised, “Zane Brother… have you dug out the Fountain of Life?”
“This… was instinctive… let’s not talk about that now, can you use these to make Holy Spring Brew?”
Alna pondered for a moment, shook her head, “I still lack one thing—Rain Grass; it’s very difficult to preserve. Once it’s uprooted, it will spoil in less than an hour.”
“No way, I just picked 3 pieces of grass for Zen this afternoon.”
“Three?! That’s way too much; the flavor of Rain Grass is very strong, you only need to cut a little bit! He definitely won’t be making just Holy Spring Brew!”
Like a bolt from the blue!
Zane’s complexion paled; that old man was toying with him. “Then I’m going over now!” Saying that, he quickly crushed the Return Scroll.
“Zane…” Alna lowered her outstretched right hand and sighed in disappointment.
If that old guy drinks all the wine, it would be terrible! After all, the Rain Grass was picked at the risk of being instantly killed by the Deep Sea Giant!
Zane was in a hurry; he could only pray that he would drink slowly.
The wolf raced, oh, no need for a goad; Starry sat on the wolf’s back anxiously.
…
The physique of wolves cannot be generalized; in a fit of extreme anger, Zane reached Oceanview Village in just 3 minutes.
He headed straight for Zen’s hut.
Before he even opened the door, the aroma of wine filled the entire corridor.
Even just inhaling a breath of air, the rich fragrance felt intoxicating, as if one would get drunk just from breathing.
Golden goblets of wine worth tens of thousands, exquisite dishes worth thousands of coins.
At the door, two drunkards were heard conversing.
They even know how to share? Zane’s anger flared, that old guy!
He pushed the door open, and the sweet scent almost intoxicated Starry.
Shaking his head, forcing himself to calm down, he looked at the stone table in the yard, where cups of fine wine were arranged in a pattern.
Two stone benches had already found their owners.
Sitting on the left was Zen, shaking his wine glass, his face flushed as he comfortably said, “Brother, how is this Holy Spring Brew?”
“Ha ha! I haven’t tasted this flavor in half a year!” In the moonlight, the figure on the right was shadowed by the wall, making it hard to see their true appearance.
