Chapter 84: F*ck you Kelly

“I can’t do this anymore. He has lost more experience than he has gained. He had dropped a level and a half in the three Instance Dungeons I’ve brought him into. How are we supposed to continue playing?”

“You can’t be serious...”

“Is he your friend? I’m kicking him out if he’s not.”

“Don’t.”

How could the infamous grand commander in his past life perish in a five men beginner Normal-Level Instance Dungeon?

Li Yi told Chen Yang to record down the situation inside the Instance Dungeon and send it to him. However, as Li Yi watched the recording, he felt so hopeless that his nose was almost warped. ¹

Chen Yang was screaming at the top of his lungs in the video. He was telling Pretty Good Mood to stop running around and attacking freely and he should just stay behind him. Pretty Good Mood was doing fine until more monsters started to appear. Then, he’d start to panic and would either send himself to death by running into the monsters or miraculously drawing in the monsters. The most frustrating thing was that he would get himself lost in this simple Frost Labyrinth Instance Dungeon where one would just need to run straight ahead while going back to his corpse. Ultimately, he encountered a monster alone and died multiple times.

His mistakes far surpassed what a noob would do. This... This was literally a scrub!

If it were not for Li Yi recognizing how Pretty Good Mood looked like, he would not have linked this scrub in front of his eyes based on his performance in the Instance Dungeon to the ultimate commander who commanded thousands of players in his past life.

‘I didn’t mess up, did I?’ Even Li Yi had started to doubt himself.

As compared to Pretty Good Mood, Li Yi’s eyes glowed as he witnessed One Big Bun’s agile reaction. He knew how to fight and would solve any abnormal problems that arose on his own. He was the complete opposite of the clumsy Pretty Good Mood.

“You won’t need to do anything else for the next few days after finishing the five-man Instance Dungeon. All you need to do is to continue leading them.” Li Yi sent a recorded message to Chen Yang.

“People will die, Brother Yi.”

“I’ll give you a gold-quality ring which gives you +20 INT.”

“Leave it to me, Brother Yi.”

...

Li Yi had finished designing the Guild’s Map and started building it.

The Guild’s Map was an independent map and players were able to enter it by using the Guild Return City Stone directly or telling the guild’s ID to the guild manager located in the city.

The Guild’s Map had many buildings such as treasure shops, training field, meeting hall, battle car workshop and so on. Each building had its own unique feature and the benefits of these buildings would expand as the guild leveled up.

Li Yi had activated the training field feature for the rest of the guild members. This way, all guild members could go to the training field and obtain the 1.5x EXP buff for free from the NPC.

It was finally settled.

As Li Yi, who was standing in the training field, was about to announce the training field to every guild member, a dwarfish figure appeared at the entrance of the Guild’s Map before disappearing instantly.

Someone was there!

Li Yi activated his Innate Skill Sensory and instantly locked down on that person. He then shot out two arrows with his quickest speed and set down a Freezing Trap below him.

Thud! Thud!

The numbers -93 and -130 appeared and the Dwarf Thief’s sneak status was instantly dispelled, revealing his figure.

“Death Cloak!”

The Dwarf Thief’s reaction was rather quick as he immediately used Death Cloak the moment his sneak status was broken. Then he sneaked into the shadows once more...

Li Yi could no longer sense the presence of the Dwarf Thief via Sensory.

‘Did he escape?’

Li Yi frowned. The Guild’s Map was created just a moment ago and there were already people coming in to survey the surroundings. This was definitely not a good sign.

‘Damn it. I didn’t even manage to see his face clearly!’

Regardless if one was a guild member or not, any player could enter the Guild’s Map through the guild manager if the player knew the guild’s ID.

It would be fine if someone had accidentally entered the place. However, it would be troublesome if it was a spy from another guild as guild wars were inevitable.

If there were any grudges between guilds, they could request a guild war to fight against each other. The most straightforward way was to go to the opponent’s Guild’s Map, destroy their buildings and kill their guild manager in the meeting hall.

One would require money to rebuild and the losses would be massive. Hence, all guild managers would design their Guild’s Map with extreme care so that the loss would be reduced as much as possible.

Although outsiders were not able to destroy the buildings without requesting a guild war beforehand, they would be at a disadvantage if the spy intended to survey the Guild’s Map’s geography.

Suddenly, Li Yi thought of something. Guild wars would not be possible if both guilds were less than Level 3...

He had forgotten about this as he did not join a guild for a long time in his past life. He sweated... He was so worried that he’d read too much into the situation.

...

The Dwarf Thief that had taken two arrows from Li Yi was sweating bullets as well.

“What the f*ck man. The Guild’s Map is truly terrifying. There’s an incredible Archer inside it and I almost died from his attacks...”

“Square Inch, why are you still not in the Guild’s Map?” The Dwarf Thief received a message.

Square Inch the Dwarf Thief shook his head crazily and said, “Why should I enter that place. There’s a monster inside and it’s too dangerous. I’m not taking that 1.5x EXP buff.”

“... Which ID did you enter?”

“998. The one that you told me.”

“Idiot. What I told you was 988.”

“Damn. I missed a number.”

...

Li Yi followed the NPC soldiers and patrolled around Shattered Frost City seven times and had finally finished his daily quests.

Li Yi occasionally captured a few players who had illegally placed stalls and had yet to meet any red players in the city ever since he became a patrol guard.

The quest’s Completion Rate was not high and the rate was rather slow.

“Hey handsome passerby, do you need any special services?”

Li Yi could not help himself but turn his head towards the source of the seductive voice.

The Equipment Reinforcement Master Kelly smiled with her eyes closed as she asked him.

Kelly was a unique NPC. She was known as the raging Kelly by the players as she was always angry from day to night. However, she was not always in this state. There would be a day or two in a month where her personality would turn extremely charming and it was only in this period players were able to obtain quests from her.

Kelly’s quest was simple. She would gift a player a Reinforcement Stone and allow them to reinforce any item a player wished via the reinforcement furnace beside her. The reinforcement rate would be hundred percent and players would be able to bring their own reinforcement stones to reinforce their equipment through Kelly upon completing the quest.

“Alright.”

Li Yi went forward and accepted Kelly’s quest since he had nothing better to do.

Li Yi took the Reinforcement Stone from her and placed his Frost Longbow into the reinforcement furnace.

The furnace glowed in seven colors and the reinforcement furnace opened up as it cracked.

[Congratulations, You’ve successfully reinforced your Frost Longbow to +1]

[Frost Longbow+1 (gold quality)]

[Equipment Level: Level 15]

[ATK 20~60]

[Crit Rate increased by 2%]

[Shooting range increased by 10 yards]

[Special effect: Your attack has a certain chance of freezing the target]

[Note: Ordas’ favorite longbow, which has a name Arethena carved on it.]

[The drop rate is 0.01%]

...

Reinforcement was successful to +1 and the Frost Longbow’s ATK had increased by 5.

Li Yi quickly got onto his horse, rushed to the inventory and took out 100 pieces of Reinforcement Stones that he had collected.

He currently had two gold quality bows, which were the Frost longbow and Fire Longbow which was sent by Jiaojiao respectively.

Naturally, the Fire Longbow was better in terms of ATK but without a doubt, the Frost Longbow was the better choice when it came to additional attributes.

Not only did it have a freezing effect, but it also increased the range by 10 yards.

Li Yi preferred using the Fire Longbow when he was fighting against monsters but he would without a doubt use the Frost Longbow when it came to PKing. However, since the Frost Longbow had a weak ATK, he could not kill people most of the time. Take the Dwarf Thief who had managed to escape from the Guild’s Map for example. He would have killed him instantly if its attack was slightly higher.

The players would only require one Reinforcement Stone to reinforce the equipment to +1 and two Reinforcement Stones to +2. In a similar manner, the highest that equipment could be reinforced was +16. However, when the reinforcement to an equipment which was higher than +10 failed, the equipment would instantly shatter.

Li Yi placed 100 Reinforcement Stones into the reinforcement furnace and selected the reinforcement option.

[Congratulations, You’ve successfully reinforced your Frost Longbow to +2]

[Congratulations, You’ve successfully reinforced your Frost Longbow to +3]

[You’ve failed to reinforce your Frost Longbow. Reinforcement level has dropped by 1 level...]

[Congratulations, You’ve successfully reinforced your Frost Longbow to +3]

[You’ve failed to reinforce your Frost Longbow. Reinforcement level has dropped by 1 level...]

[Congratulations, You’ve successfully reinforced your Frost Longbow to +3]

...

“Hey handsome passerby, do you need any special services?”

Kelly who was just beside him was calling out to the players who were passing by seductively and had completely ignored Li Yi’s presence.

In reality, Li Yi was not the only one who was standing beside the reinforcement furnace as there were dozens other more crowding around the reinforcement furnace, trying to reinforce their equipment.

“F*ck your mum Kelly!”

“F*cking Kelly!”

“F*ck me. My reinforced +7 ring had dropped down to 0.”

“F*cking hell. My +11 shoes had shattered. F*ck you Kelly...”

It was a sea of people bawling here and there...

The success rate of reinforcement was extremely low and this had caused many players to hate or love Kelly. Those who had successfully reinforced their equipment was beyond ecstatic and their mood turned around very quickly after they had spent a ton of money and the equipment had shattered in the end.

“F*ck. I’m still very unlucky!”

Li Yi had exhausted 100 Reinforcement Stones and spent 500 Gold Coins and yet his Frost Longbow had returned to its prime state.

He did not even manage to enhance to +4...

“Give me back my gold-colored necklace!”

An Orc Warrior player was so angry that he gave into his emotions as he rushed towards Kelly while waving his giant sword.

Kelly placed her fair leg onto the Orc player’s head and sent him flying tens of meters away. Then, the player dropped to the ground and stopped breathing.

“Hey handsome passerby, do you need any special services?”

“Idiot.” Li Yi sighed hopelessly.

Unique NPCs such as Kelly were all elite level. Any player in their Level 20s would be looking for death if they wanted to do anything to Kelly.

Perhaps everyone was stunned by Kelly’s kick as the players who were jeering in broad daylight became quiet as they continued reinforcing their equipment silently.

“One last time. This is the last time. I refuse to believe that...”

Li Yi’s gambling habit surfaced once more as he took out another 100 Reinforcement Stones and threw it into the reinforcement furnace.

[Congratulations, You’ve successfully reinforced your Frost Longbow to +1]

[You’ve failed to reinforce your Frost Longbow. Reinforcement level has dropped by 1 level...]

Just as Li Yi ran out of tears as he wept, the God Creator Guild Master Confused Fox sent Li Yi a message.

“Are you interested in joining an Instance Dungeon?”

“Which Instance Dungeon?”

“A 50 man party Instance Dungeon, the Molten Furnace.”

Li Yi was slightly shocked as he asked. “When?”

“Now!”
