บท 23: Yin body
Alex tied up her long red hair into a tight bun as she eyed Liam from top to bottom.
Every time her gaze fell on him, it was clear to her that she was in a game. No real man could possibly look like that!
Though she herself was quite appealing, with a slender body and soft curves, the person in front of her was in a completely different league.
With his looks, he could be a top model in the real world earning six figures.
But except for his appearance and perhaps that special quest he received, nothing else was really that special about him, not to mention the arrogant attitude he wore all the time as if he was better than everybody else.
Alex highly doubted that the person deserved all this attention and the ass-kissing which Rey was shamelessly doing. For all she knew, this guy was probably just a fake wannabe.
"So? Do you agree or not? We will be rolling for equipment drops and skill book drops impartially." She repeated her words again, stressing each of them.
Liam chuckled wryly. Why would he care about the drops from a beginner's dungeon?
"That's fine with me. I don't need any pieces of equipment. We can roll for skill books. But I do have one single condition."
"If there are any material drops or unique drops, I will be taking it."
Hmmm… Alex stared him down, raising her brow at him.
Just because he said what he said, she couldn't help but feel that there were going to be unique drops or some special quest items. Was this guy a beta tester? How does he know everything in advance?
Nevertheless, she shrugged and agreed.
She didn't want to waste too much time talking out here because if they don't clear the dungeon first, it was inevitable that someone else will take their cake.
After Alex agreed, the group then quickly walked inside, entering the cave. As soon as they stepped in, it was as if they had been transported to a completely different place.
They were now standing in a forest of sorts again, an extremely windy one at that, and the clear blue sky was now an unsettling ominous dark purple in color.
"What the hell is this dungeon?" Rey asked, looking around nervously. There were no beasts or monsters around them and the place was a bit too creepy for a plain empty forest.
"Not down. Look up." Liam muttered.
Rey and the two women heard his words and immediately looked up to see tiny red dots scattered in the dark purple cloudy sky and when they looked closer, they instantly gasped.
The tiny red dots were eyes and the dark purple clouds were flocks of birds swirling around in endless loops.
"Fuuucck!" Rey cursed out loud in shock and the two women also looked apprehensive.
Liam, on the other hand, calmly smiled and sat down on the forest ground opening his inventory screen.
Just because the birds were there, it didn't mean that they were going to attack them. Otherwise, they would have done so already.
"Alright. I need 5 more minutes and then I will be good to go."
Everyone was too distracted to care about him so they absentmindedly nodded. Liam chuckled. The game was indeed a bit too realistic and there was a reason for that.
He sighed and shook his head, finally taking a look at the things he had swiped from the dragon's lair.
[Currency]
[Gold - 5000]
[Silver - 5000]
[Copper - 5000]
"Not bad." Liam clicked his tongue. He then took a look at the first skill book.
[Demonic summon]: Consumes 200 mana and summons a lesser demon. Spell active for 20 seconds. Level 1
"Tch. Tch. What an expensive summoning spell…"
Liam quickly learned the skill as there was no limit to the number of skills one could learn, but leveling up all of them and making sure that they are actually useful was an entirely different thing.
One could learn a hundred skills but it was physically impossible to focus on all of them, level up all of them, and more importantly, gain enlightenment regarding all of them.
But this particular skill was well worth the time and effort because Liam knew that when leveled up, it would enable the player to permanently form a contract with a demon.
Of course, there was also another prerequisite for this to happen. Only people with an extremely high demonic affinity were capable of achieving this stage.
Liam did not have an SSS grade affinity which was technically the highest but he still had an S grade affinity which was good enough. So he didn't hesitate and quickly learned the skill.
Alex stood beside him, curiously watching Liam and wondering what he was up to. "Hey, Hofstadter. What do you think he is doing? Did he just learn a skill?" She muttered under her breath.
Liam ignored their chatter and was about to open the next item when his hand suddenly paused.
"Hofstadter?" His eyes quickly scanned the name of the third member of the party, the priestess with whom he had not interacted that much.
[Rey Thornwood]
[Alex Thornwood]
[Mia Hofstadter]
He hadn't paid enough attention to their names earlier and now that he did, Liam was utterly dumbfounded. What was this? Fate? Or simply a coincidence?
Liam cursed himself for not noticing this sooner. In his hurry, he would have almost sent away a god-sent gift package.
"Mia Hofstadter..."
In his previous life, she was a very famous named player.
She had consistently been one of the top healers on the leader board. Not to mention, her top-notch skills as a battle priest when she was not healing.
In addition to that, the woman was extremely good looking, with a gorgeous figure, honey blond hair, and a pair of bright blue eyes.
She also had a calm, composed, and cold temperament like a sword that was sheathed, which didn't quite fit the image of a kind and benevolent priestess and yet she was adored by countless fans and was revered as a goddess.
However, all of this was when the world still had a semblance of normalcy.
After things started to turn bleak, for some reason, her name had disappeared altogether. She was not even registered with the association.
Liam's mind automatically rummaged through the several things he had heard about Mia and he paused, paying attention to the one particular thing, the only part he cared about.
This woman in front of him possessed a pure Yin body!
