Chapter 41: First Death (1)
"Hey, have you guys heard? Jade Sea Pavilion started fighting with Life At First Sight again yesterday. Rumour has it that Life At First Sight even sent Nine Ballads out this time around. Alas, the great god Quiet And Steadfast dealt with her in a second."
"What the f*ck! Quiet And Steadfast is really too OP!1 I chanced upon Nine Ballads in Frosty Wind Forest the last time I was there doing a quest, she was hunting monsters and, due to my carelessness, she killed obliterated me with an AOE attack. I brought my brothers along with me later on to exact revenge, but she still killed us all. That woman is really a damn pervert!"
"In that case, are you saying that Quiet And Steadfast is an even bigger pervert than her?"
"I heard differently pared to what you guys are talking about. From what I know, the reason why Quiet And Steadfast could finish off Nine Ballads like that was because an ugly monster trolled Nine Ballads beforehand… Well, that ugly monster is the very same player whom Jade Sea Pavilion recently admitted into their guild. She's also the one who everyone deems to be the ugliest player in the history of this game!"
"I know about that ugly monster! Don't think she's a nobody just because she's ugly! She's pretty awesome. Tell me, are you willing to incur the wrath of White Cloud Temple's Sect Leader, Song Yuqing's disciple? If so, then you better be careful when she es looking for revenge with all of White Cloud Temple's NPCs backing her!"
"Jade Sea Pavilion really is getting more and more perverted! Do you think that Life At First Sight still stands a chance against them?"
"Well, that's hard to say. I've got a friend who's an executive in Life At First Sight, he said that Life At First Sight seems to be negotiating an alliance with Sovereign's Descent. Jade Sea Pavilion has held the title of being the number one guild for so long, it's not surprising for them to have long since incurred the displeasure of many guilds."
"Oh yeah, looks like we're gonna have another good show to watch!"
Shen Jingbin was leaning against the counter in a tavern as she waited for the shopkeeper to gather the medicines she needed.
Thus far, she'd been relying on her martial arts abilities from real life as a foundation for her bat abilities in the game. However, that battle with Nine Ballads last night had made her realise that her own underlying strength, that she'd been so proud of, didn't really count for much. It was all down to pure dumb luck that she managed to dodge Nine Ballad's attack yesterday. If she were to pare their martial prowess alone, Nine Ballads would probably be on par with her. Shen Jingbin had merely used the surrounding terrain to her advantage to catch her opponent off guard.
However, as the saying goes: there's always another mountain. There might e a day when she encounters someone whose true martial prowess and level outclassed hers. When that time es, wouldn't she only be able to wait for her death? Hence, she had to prepare life-saving items for herself.
When talking about life-saving items in the game, if it wasn't large health potions, then it'd be the legendary Grandmaster Apothecary who could refine Shen Nong's secret medicine.
Based on the rumours that she'd heard, there was a Grandmaster Apothecary NPC in this tavern called "Number One Tavern
