Chapter 130: Loli Powers

As such, Arena sets are extremely powerful, especially when in player-versus-player (PVP). Most sets had effects such as stun duration reduction and elemental resistances. In PVP battles, every single second mattered, and even a split second could turn the tide of battle or mess up one’s combos and tactics.

Obviously, Arena sets weren’t that easy to obtain. Using Level 20 equipment as an example, a Level 20 Epic piece cost over a hundred Battle Medals, which was no small amount at all. Drako Yau had to win exactly 100 consecutive fights, which racked up his victory and win streak rewards, just for barely over a thousand medals!

Seeing Scaredyface’s flushed cheeks, Drako Yau smiled and asked, ‘How many matches have you fought?’

‘This is my first match…’ Scaredyface lowered her head till it reached her bountiful chest. Although she was a young maiden, she was already starting to manifest signs of curviness. 

‘Oh? Let me give you a set of equipment then.’

The next moment, Drako Yau vanished from the spot—he surrendered!

‘Woah!!!’

Everyone burst into uproar and stood from their seats. The invincible Mask surrendered to a little girl?

Still startled, Scaredyface heard the system’s voice.

‘Congratulations, you have defeated player ??? and ended his win streak. You will receive half of his Battle Medals for ending his win streak.’ (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Scaredyface checked her item bag in befuddlement: over 500 Battle Medals! It was enough for a whole set of Level 20 Epic gear which could last her till Level 30!

Drako Yau left the Arena and hurried back to the inn.

Noticing his Battle Medal count had gone from over a thousand to around 500, he didn’t regret it at all. Though Battle Medals were very useful, favours had to be repaid. If Scaredyface hadn’t foolishly waited for him outside Blazing Cave, it was very likely that he would’ve died from bleeding after the fight with the Fire Crystal Master.

After entering his room, Drako Yau immediately fell asleep the moment he touched his bed without even taking off his mask.

He had experienced way too much in the hundred battles, and it placed a heavy burden on him, especially the mind because it wasn’t healed by the system. Fighting high-intensity battles one after another while getting used to his different states and forces in his body had worn out his mind.

Right now, he was an arrow which had reached the end of its flight.

At the same time, rumours were being spread on the official forums.

‘Even Heroes Fall for Womanly Charms: The Woman Who Subdued Mask!’

‘The Undefeatable Is a Lolicon?’

‘All Hail Lolis, Moe Shall Conquer the World!’

The incident, later named ‘The Hundred Win Incident’, provided a good topic for chit-chatting and gossiping over meals.

Apart from Mask’s breathtaking performance, others such as Windstrider, Fei Yeung, and Mister Unfettered all entered the spotlight. After all, Mask was simply way too overpowered. The others were by no means weak at all.

The world wasn’t blind enough to not give them credit. Those players who put up a good fight were all targets of heated recruitment.

There were over a hundred guilds in Real World, but only a dozen or so were considered first-rate guilds.

Fei Yeung the tormentor specialist joined Dark World, a guild ranked among the middle echelon of first-rate guilds. It was rumoured he joined Dark World because he had his eyes set on a girl in the guild.

Mister Unfettered was as free as always, rejecting every single attempt of recruitment and continued to play the game as a lone wolf. However, he no longer appeared in Yoda, but instead in Empyreon. The name ‘Mask’ was now directly associated with Yoda, and plenty of players regarded Mask as Yoda’s representative, which only served to infuriate Mister Unfettered further. Still, he never considered the reason why Drako Yau was respected; it wasn’t purely because of strength, but also Mask’s admirable courage when the city needed someone to make a stand during the Siege.

Windstrider was also sought after by many guilds. Sky Dominion even offered him a monthly salary of 5000 gold coins in an attempt to recruit him.

As more and more players joined Real World, the exchange rate between gold coins and real life currency continued to rocket upwards. It reached 1 gold coin for 15 dollars at one point, but it had now settled down at 1:10. Economists estimated that 1:10 was a stable rate which wouldn’t change unless something groundbreaking occurred.

Five thousand gold coins a month equated 50,000 dollars in real life—it was a lot more than what most white collar workers get these days. Sky Dominion had clearly shown that they were willing to pay top dollars for Windstrider. Even so, Windstrider rejected their offer and ended up joining Yoda’s Howl of the Tempest Wolves.

It was a surprising decision. Howl of the Tempest Wolves wasn’t even considered a first-rate guild and was second line at best. The guild’s average level was barely Level 15 when most first-rate guilds were at Level 20 and approaching Level 25.

As such, many found Windstrider’s decision unwise. However, when people started digging into the guild which managed to recruit the sought-after ranger, information and news started trickling out to the public.

Zephyrwolf: owner of the mysterious pet, demon wolf king, he led the army of Yoda during the Siege.

Idyllic Poet the ‘Pyromage’: once the centre of attention in Terrafirm, she was renowned for her strength and beauty, mostly the latter.

Danting the Magic Swordsman: a powerful player with a hidden class and a long win streak under his belt.

These three names were already rather astounding. Counting Windstrider in, the four of them would all receive specialised training in any first-rate guild, yet they all gathered in a petty second line guild. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});

Another vital information soon floated to the surface: Mask was on friendly terms with Howl of the Tempest Wolves. Once the information was made public, everyone finally understood why Windstrider joined the small guild.

Mask was the one who defeated him, so it wasn’t a surprise for him to submit to Mask. It also explained why Danting surrendered to Mask back in the Arena. Everything made sense all at once, and everyone regarded Howl of the Tempest Wolves as a first-rate guild overnight.

While the guild stood at the bottom of the pecking order among first-rate guilds, it was still ranked as one of the powerhouses in the game nonetheless. Applications to join the guild flooded in, almost scaring Zephyrwolf. Anyways, as Zephyrwolf never bothered with administration matters, Dogsnout who had always taken over had a pale face as he looked at the pile of applications.

Thankfully, Idyllic Poet offered her assistance. She used to manage internal matters for Age of Scholars, not to mention that her job in real life was management-related as well. With her help, things started to settle down.
