Chapter 6: Do I Know You?
As Qin Anran and Sheng Xu watched Li Feng engrossed in his game again, they couldn’t help but feel puzzled. Was the game really that fun? Wasn’t clearing dungeons and fighting monsters more appealing?
The surrounding classmates shook their heads at this sight. Playing games at a time like this, Li Feng was truly beyond saving.
Lost in his monster-slaying, Li Feng naturally didn’t notice these gazes.
To him, this event was far less important than grinding skills.
“I thought Mechanical Heart was a skill, but it turned out to be a breathing technique. This means I still have two skill slots left,” Li Feng thought happily.
Beginner players had three skill slots. Currently, only Rx Pursuer occupied a slot. With the help of the Mechanical Heart breathing technique, his speed in grinding goblins was exceptionally fast.
He grinded for an hour straight.
He finally managed to painstakingly raise his experience bar to the halfway point, his efficiency having increased by an unknown amount.
“Perhaps I should find stronger monsters to solo,” Li Feng thought, still feeling that his leveling speed was a bit slow and unsatisfactory.
Thinking about the Thunderbolt Gobzan dungeon, he suddenly remembered that the Hero Legend game seemed to have this dungeon as well.
“I’ll familiarize myself with the environment first, so I don’t get caught off guard later,” Li Feng thought, preparing to start the next dungeon.
The Hero Legend mobile game was originally based on real-world dungeons, encompassing most of the dungeons in reality.
It was just that he couldn’t even defeat a single goblin before, so he naturally wouldn’t have considered grinding other dungeons.
Suddenly, the surroundings fell silent, and everyone’s gaze turned towards Li Feng’s location.
To be precise, they were looking at a beautiful figure standing there.
“It seems that being defeated by me a year ago really hit you hard. I didn’t believe it at first… but I still hope you can pull yourself together,” Lin Ling’er said to Li Feng, her voice clear and melodious like a warbling oriole.
“. . .”
Li Feng was still immersed in the game, preparing to enter the Thunderbolt Gobzan dungeon. He didn’t notice Lin Ling’er standing beside him, and even her voice was automatically filtered out.
Lost in the game world, he had achieved a state of complete focus. Nothing could compare to the game; online gaming didn’t need women.
The surroundings seemed to grow even quieter. All the students stared at Li Feng in disbelief. A beautiful girl had approached him, and he had actually ignored her.
Lin Ling’er gnashed her small tiger teeth, black lines appearing on her forehead, feeling quite frustrated.
“Ahem, Li Feng, someone’s looking for you,” Yang Wei, sitting beside him, couldn’t bear it any longer and nudged Li Feng’s arm.
“Hmm, who’s looking for me?” Reminded, Li Feng finally exited the game and looked up at Lin Ling’er. “Who are you? Do I know you?” he asked.
“You don’t know me???” Lin Ling’er’s mind was filled with question marks. Weren’t you so devastated by your defeat at my hands that you lost yourself in games? I should be a shadow in your heart, forever etched in your memory.
This situation seemed a bit off.
“Sorry, I have a bad memory. Is there something you need? If not, I’m going back to my game,” Li Feng said strangely. This girl seemed to have some screws loose.
As for the defeat a year ago, he had long forgotten it. To him, it was just an insignificant matter.
Many of the surrounding students gave him a thumbs up. This Li Feng was a real man, not even caring about a goddess, only concerned with his game.
“You’re saying that on purpose, right? To lessen the shadow Lin Ling’er cast on you? But in life, you have to face setbacks head-on. Ling’er came here to help you. I hope you don’t misunderstand her good intentions,” Jiang Sheng walked over, his gaze cold.
Lin Ling’er, with her talent and good family background, had long become a goddess admired by ordinary students in Yude No. 3 High School. Jiang Sheng was also one of her pursuers.
◈◈◈
“Ridiculous,” Li Feng said again. “If there’s nothing else, please don’t disturb my game.”
His attitude made Lin Ling’er feel a bit indignant. She had come with good intentions to advise Li Feng, but she was met with his aloofness and disregard.
“Hmph, I hope you can leave this dungeon alive,” Jiang Sheng said with a frown, a sharp glint in his eyes. Then, turning to Lin Ling’er, he said, “Ling’er, don’t bother with this kind of person. He’s completely fallen. Losing is part of competition. If he can’t handle this kind of setback, his future achievements will be limited.”
………
Qin Anran and the other two were also dumbfounded. This godly teammate was truly a hardcore straight guy!
Li Feng ignored them and started the Thunderbolt Gobzan dungeon in the game.
“It starts with ordinary goblins, too?”
As soon as he entered the dungeon, several goblins rushed towards him. He was very familiar with these ordinary goblins. With a few dodges, he evaded them.
He then maneuvered four goblins into a circle, with himself in the center and an Rx Pursuer beside him.
Thud, thud, thud.
The four goblins raised their wooden clubs and lunged at Li Feng. Seeing this, Li Feng smiled and slid under one of the goblins.
Boom! The Rx Pursuer self-destructed, a small mushroom cloud rising, and experience points poured in.
“These goblins seem weaker than ordinary goblins. One Rx Pursuer was enough to blow them up,” Li Feng silently assessed the goblins’ strength.
Seeing his experience bar steadily rising, he felt delighted. “I hope this dungeon will bring me a lot of benefits.”
He then started hunting lone goblins. Another half an hour passed, and his in-game character level was close to reaching level 11.
“This dungeon’s environment is much better than I expected,” he sighed in relief. This dungeon wasn’t like the Dark Cat Forest.
It was well-lit, with vast grasslands and open views. There were also some trees with strawberries hanging from them, which could replenish stamina.
The only pity was that he hadn’t seen any evolved goblins.
Whoosh!
Just then, a rock, like a bullet, shot towards Li Feng. He tried his best to dodge, but it still grazed his shoulder, causing a large spray of blood.
“D*mn it, I jinxed myself,” Li Feng cursed.
Under a tree not far from Li Feng, there was a goblin carrying a wooden basket. The rock had been thrown from its hand.
He took a deep breath, ate a strawberry to heal, and the wound on his shoulder slowly began to recover.
Whoosh!
Li Feng didn’t dare to be careless and immediately summoned an Rx Pursuer, sending it towards the Thrower Goblin.
This Thrower Goblin seemed to know that the robot posed a threat and started throwing rocks at the Pursuer.
Bang!
The Rx Pursuer was hit by a rock, its body pausing for a moment and slightly turning red.
Li Feng frowned. Once the Rx Pursuer turned completely red, it would undergo an irreversible explosion.
