Chapter 254 - 254 Lan Xingxing

254 Lan Xingxing

This room was a prison.

She was locked up here, obviously because she was captured.

Perhaps those bandits saw that she was pretty, so they did not kill her like the others. Instead, they locked her up here.

“Hello, we’re not bad people. We chased away the bandits. Are you alright?”

Lu Yufan asked.

The girl stood up and walked to them.

“Really?”

She let out a very sweet and weak voice.

“Yeah.”

Lu Yufan gave her a friendly smile.

Chu Bai took out another key and opened the door.

“Thank you.”

The young girl walked out and bowed to them.

[Mysterious girl. Level: 40. Grade: Dark Demon boss. HP: 1,200,000. She was captured by bandits in the forest.]

Chu Bai was stunned.

Such a young NPC actually had the strength of a level 40 dark demon boss. It was really amazing.

One had to know that only the people from the Heavenly Fire Sect who attempted to assassinate him had this strength.

Logically speaking, she should not have been captured, but there was nothing she could do. The three leaders of these mountain bandits all had the strength of a celestial beast, so she naturally was not a match for them.

“Are you alright?”

Lu Yufan asked.

She was originally very afraid, but when she saw so many beautiful girls here, her wariness almost disappeared in an instant.

They were definitely not bad people.

“Yes, I’m fine. Thank you.”

The young girl replied in a weak voice, and then she became dignified again.

“You were captured by them, right?”

“Yes.” The girl nodded.

At the thought of this, her eyes turned red.

“I… I originally hired a mercenary group to go somewhere else, but when I passed by here today, I met those mountain bandits. All the members of the mercenary group were killed by them, and I was also locked up by them. I thought… I thought I was dead for sure. Thank you, thank you so much.”

After saying that, she cried and wiped her tears.

It was obvious that she was really afraid.

Although she might not be weak, she was still young, after all. Perhaps she had not experienced too many things, so she was especially afraid.

“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid.”

Lu Yufan then looked at Chu Bai.

“Bring her out first. We’ll talk about it later,” Chu Bai said.

This girl did not seem to be that simple. What kind of mission could she trigger?

Then, they walked out together.

A few girls surrounded her.

They learned that her name was Lan Xingxing.

The girls were chatting with her to make her feel less afraid.

“Let’s go back to Tianhua City.”

Chu Bai said.

“Alright.”

Originally, they could have crushed their return scrolls, but since they had an NPC with them, they had no choice but to walk back together.

After returning to Tianhua City, Lu Yufan and Long Mengyi continued to take care of her.

They returned to the Five Moons Chamber of Commerce together.

Everyone gave a pile of equipment and items to Jiang Qianyue.

Chu Bai brought Lil Xue’er and Little Demon to have a feast.

They were quite tired today. After eating, Chu Bai put them into the corresponding space and returned to the Five Moons Chamber of Commerce.

In the chamber of commerce.

Lan Xingxing was already quite familiar with everyone.

Long Mengyi, Lil Cutie, Lu Yufan, Ming Yue, and Yao Yao were all there, chatting with Lan Xingxing.

The others either went offline or went to grind levels.

Seeing Chu Bai walk in, Ming Yue stood up and called out to him.

“Big Brother.”

Yao Yao called out sweetly.

Lan Xingxing looked at Chu Bai curiously.

During the conversation, she also learned that this person was their leader.

He seemed quite capable.

“Mhm.”

Chu Bai nodded and took out the Guardian Necklace, handing it to Ming Yue.

“Help me appraise it.”

“Alright.”

Ming Yue did not hesitate.

Now that she had celestial-level appraisal skills, there was no problem in appraising celestial-grade equipment.

Soon, a purple light flashed.

“It’s done.”

Ming Yue handed it to Chu Bai.

There was also a large pile of equipment which was all in Jiang Qianyue’s hands. She had either already appraised them or would appraise them when she had the time.

Chu Bai then looked at the attributes of the Guardian Necklace.

[Guardian Necklace. Grade: Celestial. Usage Level: 0. Usage requirement: Any class. A rather powerful necklace with a defensive ability. Attributes: Spirit +100, Mana +200, Magic attack power +100.]

[Passive skill—Protection: Resists 1,000 fixed damage when attacked.]

Chu Bai was speechless.

F*ck!

He finally understood why when he attacked this boss, the damage was always 1,000 points lower than normal.

It was because the boss had worn this Guardian Necklace that could block 1,000 damage!

This was so fierce!

This was because the conversion of defense in Fate was done using the simplest addition and deduction.

1,000 defense points meant 1,000 damage!

Therefore, in the later stages of the game, the effect of defense would not be that great unless one’s defense was really exaggerated.

Generally speaking, in the later stages, the stronger the equipment was, the more it relied on the percentage damage reduction effect.

However, in the early and middle stages of the game, high defense was extremely useful.

The attributes of this Guardian Necklace were obviously attributes that belonged to mages.

However, this passive skill, Protection, was simply too useful to Chu Bai.

It was equivalent to providing him with 1,000 points of defense!

Coincidentally, he did not have any defense. This Guardian Necklace could provide a fixed defense of 1,000 damage per attack!

He was extremely thrilled right now!

Now, most players were at level 30 and had gold equipment in their hands. Their attack power was generally over 1,000.

The weaker ones should not have such attack power.

Now that Chu Bai was equipped with this Guardian Necklace, everything was basically back to when his defense was very high.

It was very difficult for ordinary players to break through his defense, or perhaps they barely broke through his defense.

Skills could indeed break through the defense.

However, Chu Bai had a high HP.

Therefore, this Guardian Necklace was a piece of equipment that Chu Bai desperately needed!

It felt good.

This time, his weakness of not having any defense was basically made up.

In addition to the Source of Recovery, his high HP and his fault tolerance rate were directly filled.

As for magic attack power, it was not of much use to him, but the increase in mana was very useful.

The damage of Double Phoenix Flight would be very explosive.

Chu Bai immediately equipped the necklace.
