Chapter 3: Mechanical Heart
Editor: Atlas Studios
Nevertheless, Yang Wei and Sheng Xu still introduced themselves.
What surprised Li Feng was that the two of them were quite well-known in their batch. However, there were only negative evaluations.
Yang Wei was ranked third from the bottom, while Sheng Xu was ranked second from the bottom.
As for Li Feng himself, ever since his defeat, even though he never showed his strength again, he was publicly recognized as the last place in the entire grade.
As the third year of high school was the golden period, one's strength would change everyday. However, since Li Feng had wasted a whole year, it was natural that no one would think highly of him.
"This team of ours is simply a useless team. Why do you still have the courage to enter the dungeon?" Li Feng couldn't help but sigh. Among the four of them, three of them were ranked last in the entire school grade.
Furthermore, getting into a dungeon was not an easy task. People would actually die in the dungeons. Every year, there would be a certain death rate among the graduating third-year students.
"What's there to be afraid of? Although we're weak, our families are rich. When the time comes, we can get some good stuff in and kill our way to a good rank."
Yang Wei said with a rich and arrogant tone.
"That's right. It's not considered cheating if we bring some magic cannons in. Anyway, we are here just to enhance our social status. Besides, we still have Qin Anran."
Sheng Xu sneered.
Qin Anran was ranked 13th in the cohort and had formidable strength. Why did she join this team then?
However, when Li Feng heard the tones of these two people, he basically understood why. After all, people always wanted to get close to the rich. He was a little envious.
"There's still a week's time. Do we need to familiarize ourselves with our team mates? If not, we might be thrown into a panic if something unexpected happens." At that moment, Qin Anran spoke.
"There's no need for that. You guys can do it. I still want to play games. This is the only condition for me to join the team." Li Feng refused.
"You have so little team spirit!" Yang Wei frowned and exclaimed unhappily. It was already good enough that they were willing to help Li Feng. Thus, they didn't expect him to not cooperate.
"It's not that I don't want to train with you guys. I'm just afraid that I'll hurt you," said Li Feng calmly. After saying that, he immediately left. After all, his RX Pursuer skill was too lethal.
The strength of the in-game Li Feng would carry over to real life as well. He usually took half a day to kill a Goblin. However, when the Goblin was attacked by the RX Pursuer, it would be on the verge of death.
"How arrogant."
"Forget it. Let him be. After all, we are not the main force of the team this time," said Sheng Xu calmly. Then, he looked at Qin Anran. "Sister Anran, this time, I will get you an Elementary-Grade battle armor. When the time comes, ordinary monsters will not be able to do anything to you."
"Alright!" Qin Anran's eyes lit up.
The Elementary-Grade battle armor was a good item that could greatly increase one's defensive power. This also greatly increased one's chances of survival in the dungeons.
However, the Elementary-Grade battle armor was too expensive. It would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan and was not something that ordinary people could afford.
"Hehe, when the time comes, I will also get a set of Elementary-Grade battle armor. Unfortunately, we lack Primary-Rank skill books. Otherwise, I would have wanted to get a few more," said Yang Wei with a faint smile.
This was the advantage of wealth. If not for the fact that the Primary-Rank skill books were too precious, he would have wanted to get one or two of them.
"Don't think too much. Having three sets of Elementary-Grade battle armor is already very extravagant. As for the Primary-Rank skill books, that depends on luck."
A smug smile appeared on Sheng Xu's face.
…
Li Feng didn't know what they were talking about behind his back. However, even if he knew, he didn't care.
If he could learn another powerful skill, even if he were to enter the dungeon alone, he would have sufficient confidence.
Over the next seven days, whether it was in school or at home, Li Feng was engrossed in leveling up. Moreover, the RX Pursuer skill consumed a lot of energy. After summoning the skill six times, he needed an hour to recover.
However, the efficiency of killing monsters was still more than ten times higher than before.
Ding! "Killed Goblin. Game character level raised to Level 10."
"The Sharpshooter skills you can extract are as follows:"
"Skill 1: Air Shot (Leaps into the air and fires at the enemies on the ground.)"
"Skill 2: M3 Flamethrower (Uses an M3 Flamethrower to spray flames at enemies, ignoring obstacles in the terrain.)"
"Skill 3 (Passive Skill): Mechanical Heart (Gives a Mechanical Heart, which reduces the consumption of Mechanical skills by 10%.)"
"I choose to extract Skill 3: Mechanical Heart." Li Feng was excited. After all, he hadn't expected such a perverse skill to appear at Level 10.
Soon, a mysterious force covered his heart as tadpole-like runes continuously spread throughout his heart.
Then, Li Feng impatiently opened his attribute panel.
Player: Li Feng
Class: Unchanged Class
Life Rank: Primary Rank
Strength: 5
Intelligence: 8
Speed: 7
Stamina: 4
Breathing Technique: Mechanical Heart
Skill: RX Pursuer
"This Mechanical Heart is actually a breathing technique." Li Feng's pupils were constricted. The Exorcism Breathing Technique had been replaced by the Mechanical Heart.
Without a doubt, the Mechanical Heart should be a special breathing technique used to activate a rare Class. Otherwise, it would not be so overbearing as to simply take over the Exorcism Breathing Technique.
"It looks like I'm going to become a Sorcerer."
This time, his intelligence had increased by two points. He was just one point away from reaching the requirements to change his Class. However, Li Feng had a headache.
A Sorcerer was a Class that required a lot of money. Thus, it was a difficult path for a pauper like him.
"Forget it. I'll choose a good university first. I'll take it one step at a time." Li Feng stretched lazily and looked at the calendar hanging on the door. He said in a daze, "Today seems to be the day of the Summer Dungeon Hunt."
In the third year of high school, there were very few classes. They either practiced breathing techniques at home or collected information about dungeons to prepare for them.
Over the past few days, he had spent most of his time at home and had almost forgotten about his team.
Thinking of this, he quickly washed his face and rushed to school.
When he arrived at school, Qin Anran and the rest were already waiting anxiously.
"What took you so long?" Sheng Xu reprimanded him unhappily.
"Sorry, I was too engrossed in my game and almost forgot about the dungeon," said Li Feng apologetically.
However, these words left Qin Anran and the rest speechless.
Such an important matter couldn't be compared to gaming. Qin Anran couldn't help but shake her head. It looked like the blow from a year ago was indeed too big for Li Feng.
"Li Feng, you said before that you have the ability to hurt me. I'm curious about how strong you are now. Why don't we spar?"
Yang Wei said excitedly.
He was still brooding over Li Feng's previous words.
"That's not good. We're about to enter the dungeon. If you get injured, it'll be a very troublesome matter later," said Li Feng, somewhat embarrassed.
"If I get injured?"
Yang Wei smiled in disdain and took out a rectangular box. "Look at this."
As soon as he finished speaking, the rectangular box transformed into a set of white armor that covered Yang Wei's body. He looked extremely majestic.
"It's the Elementary-Grade battle armor!" Li Feng's eyes lit up. He had heard of this before, but he didn't expect to see it with his own eyes today. This was the symbol of a tycoon.
"Hmph!"
Yang Wei raised his head slightly and said proudly, "Since you know about the Elementary-Grade battle armor, then you should be clear that you can't hurt me after I've worn this battle armor. Let's compete!"
