“Ding!”

System Notification: Congratulations, you reached rank Grade One Dragonhorse General, attack +62%!

……

A bell rang across my ears. After getting the 2.4 million points, I actually reached Dragonhorse General in the morning. The moment my rank increased, a third silver star appeared at my collar. Finally, I had three silver stars. If I got promoted once more, I would be Side General and have one gold star. That would be similar to the generals at Winter Sun City.

I was slightly emotional. I looked at the attack buffs and was pumped up. 62% increase. As someone that relied on attack speed and attack, I was one of the biggest beneficiaries. After all, Assassins chased absolute attack and the higher the attack was, lifesteal and critical strike damage would increase too. As long as the equipment was good enough, I was unkillable.

Unless, the enemy controlled me.

I raised my head and my senior sister looked at me. I said, “Senior Sister, you agreed… Dragon type skill?”

“Of course.”

She smiled, “Remember, I am going to teach you something from White Dragon Technique and Source White Dragon allowed it. White Dragon Technique is a top technique and Source White Dragon says that only the head of Dragon Region can train it. As for you, you are my junior brother. So, I am just teaching you a small branch technique, I hope you don’t look down on it.

“Why would I?”

I smiled and was excited. I thought that it would be a basic dragon technique but it was actually from Source White Dragon. In the next moment, a skill landed in my interface. Although it was only one--

Prison Dragon Break (SS Grade): Use White Dragon Power to break through all negative effects. Obtain 30% Attack and defence increase for the next five seconds and be immune to all negative effects. Cooldown of 12 seconds, required level: 120, conditions: Jing Yun Yue’s trust, required gold: 80000.

……

When I looked at the skill, I felt like my head was about to explode. This was such an overpowered skill! It could negate all negative effects and could also raise attack and defence for five seconds. So overpowered!

One could say that this alone increased my survivability to a whole new level. Especially when facing Yanshi Stargazer, he would probably cry next time!

Although this skill was graded as an SS Grade skill but it was similar to SSS Grade god techniques. Moreover, the learning requirements were strict, one of them was senior sister’s trust… I was the only one on the server that could learn it. The only thing was it consumed a lot of gold, 80 thousand. With the current gold prices, it was similar to 20 thousand RMB. That was still okay.

“Seems like Dragon Region lacks money.”

I touched my nose and learned it. Senior Sister smiled, “I told you that Dongxing Province didn’t give us any gold, they just provided resources. We still need items and gear so we can only trade with human merchants. That needs money. It isn’t that I am conning you, I am just too poor…”

I nodded and smiled, “No worries, I don’t lack money temporarily.”

“En.”

……

Prison Dragon Break appeared in my skill column. I took a few steps back and when I used it, I felt like my body was covered in saint dragon energy. I stood up and a rumbling sound spread out from my legs. White Dragon Energy wrapped around me to cleanse all negative buffs. At the same time, a diagram flashed which was immunity to all control spells for five seconds.

A little strong. It looked average but it was a god skill for mechanical players. After stepping into Blazing Sun Realm, my brain changed. My mind was much clearer and I could control everything. My reaction speed was getting faster and faster and I felt like I was on the level of T0 players. So I just lacked some understanding of the game.

That wasn’t tough. I could comprehend it on my own and Lin Xi could even teach me.

At that moment, a message came from Lin Xi, “Lu Li are you doing a quest? Are you busy?”

“I just finished a quest and am free, why?”

“Great!”

She smiled, “Ruyi just got an SSS Grade quest that needs five people. Come, meet at Winter Sun City!”

“Ok--”

I used the City Return Scroll and appeared on the Winter Sun City square. Not far away, Lin Xi, Shen Mingxuan and Gu Ruyi stood beside the shop and were talking. It was rare to see the three beauties together so many guy players were glancing over. Most of them could only look like that and very rarely could someone shamelessly get into With You like me.

“I am here!”

I walked forwards and asked, “What quest did Ruyi get?”

“From my teacher.” She said.

“Oh?”

I was stunned, “Dragon Mage’s teacher?”

‘Right!”

“That should be quite amazing!” I rubbed my palms.

Lin Xi laughed, “Share with you!”

A light flashed and the quest details appeared. When I confirmed it, a bell rang---

“Ding!”

System Notification: You accepted main quest Ice Frost Curse’s Page (SSS Grade)!

Content: Head towards Northern Frost Forest, search for a frost cavern in the east and enter it. Defeat all enemies and bring back the page of the curse. Quest can be shared with one more player.

……

“Curse…”

I frowned, “Cruses appeared so early on?”

“Right---”

She smiled, “But this is just a quest, I don’t think I can learn curses. Just treat it like a normal SSS Grade quest, don’t think too much.”

I rolled my eyes, “Ruyi really knows how to be a downer, I am thinking for you okay?”

She smiled, “But you know my personality, if it is mine then it is, if not then I won’t think too much, everything is up to fate---”

I looked at her, “No wonder your ID is Follow Heart, so apt.”

Shen Mingxuan laughed and then hugged her waist, “Ruyi is a good girl, she does what we ask her to do, that is what Follow Heart truly means. But you already have Lin Xi, don’t think about Ruyi, only I can enjoy…”

At that point, Ruyi lightly tapped Mingxuan’s hands that had reached her chest and her face flushed red, “What are you doing to me!?”

Mingxuan started to play around. The two beauties were teasing one another and it was an interesting sight. It was much better to look at than when Ah Fei and I dissed one another.

Lin Xi smiled, “Okay stop it, the quest isn’t done yet? There are four of us, we need 5. Who else should we ask?”

“Based on Job, we lack a healer or Paladin or Musician. Jobs with recovery and support abilities are okay.” Mingxuan said.

“En…”

Lin Xi smiled, “Then call Light Lotus, Spirit Zither Musicians not only got good Buffs and can heal too. With Lu Li’s Paladin skills, our healing is enough. Ruyi and Mingxuan’s firepower makes it a perfect formation---”

“En.”

I nodded, “But if we face a boss, Lin Xi take a step back and let Light Lotus buff me. I will tank. As for why, you will know when the time comes.”

“Oh?”

She smiled, “Okay, I will support you then!”

“En en!”

A few minutes later, Light Lotus was here. She held an orange pipa and was in an exquisite robe. She looked like a fairy and smiled, “Is there space for me?”

“Yes yes yes.”

Lin Xi shared the quest with her and she smiled, “Do we need to prepare anything?”

“Just bring enough items.”

Mingxuan said, “With Lin Xi and Lu Li here, the three of us can slack.”

Light Lotus burst out laughing, “Okay, I love such a party!”

“Prepare to head out!”

Lin Xi looked at the map, “It is quite far. We can teleport to the north wall and then head past the Pioneer Ocean to arrive at the Frost Cavern.”

“En!”

Everyone nodded and then teleported together to the north wall. A white light flashed and I saw the tall walls. It was covered in a layer of snow and there were snowflakes in the sky. It was similar to the weather in Dragon region. Winter had arrived in game.
