Kunton shuddered all over, his face turned livid with anger at Jiang Han's shameless remarks. Pointing at him, he roared, "How dare you speak so shamelessly!"
Clearly, you're playing the victim. In your mouth, how did it turn into me being unable to fight and wanting to run?
Do you still have any face left?
"Why can't I say it?" Jiang Han approached while speaking.
Kunton gritted his teeth, "Isn't it you who has been running all this time?"
"That's because you praised my skills, and I couldn't help but want to show you a bit." Jiang Han casually fabricated a sentence, then attacked again. "Today, you and I will have a decisive battle. Either you die, or you perish!"
"Die!"
Kunton, holding dual axes, charged explosively, swinging the axes in a tornado-like rotation. The axe light drew chilling arcs, causing sustained area damage to those who approached.
-4781!
-4877!
-4984!
...
As Kunton continued rotating and approaching, the damage inflicted escalated, forcing Jiang Han to evade in all directions, finding it difficult to defend.
Is a humanoid Silver-grade BOSS supposed to be this outrageous?
Seeing his health rapidly dropping, Jiang Han first risked taking damage using Deathstrike to lower the opponent's speed. Then, in an ungraceful manner, he rolled a short distance to escape, combined with Undead Grip and Evil Tread, leaving the battle to hide behind a tree and frantically consume potions to restore his status.
"Master..."
The beautiful woman looked at Kunton's exhausted appearance with deep concern.
...
After a moment, the heavily wounded Kunton turned to look at her, pulled his mouth into a smirk, and without replying, quickly left, disappearing from the woman's view after a few seconds.
He wasn't stupid. Jiang Han clearly intended to use his advantage in recovery speed to drag him to death. If he allowed the opponent to repeat this cycle, his death was inevitable.
"Running away?"
Jiang Han decisively pursued, relying on the rapid growth in speed as a Dark Swordsman, not inferior to Kunton, who was much higher in level.
Two minutes later, Kunton stopped, panting heavily, completely unable to run anymore. "Why is your stamina so terrifying?"
"Stamina?" Jiang Han was puzzled. "Adventurers can feel tired?"
This question caught him off guard.
Is there a stamina setting in this game?
"Of course!" Kunton looked incredulous. "Anyone would get tired. You and I have been fighting for so long, running and chasing. How could you not be tired?"
"I don't know about that." Jiang Han shrugged, unable to answer. He then attacked again, and it seemed that the opponent had indeed exhausted his stamina. He couldn't even lift his axes, standing still as Jiang Han deprived him of life with each sword strike.
One minute later, Kunton's sturdy body fell, completely dead.
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Congratulations on killing the level 35 Silver-grade BOSS, Starlight Commander·Kunton. Rewards: Experience +600,000, Reputation +1500!
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Congratulations on completing the quest "Destroy the Enemy Camp." You can now go to the Undead Mage Instructor·Daniel to claim your quest rewards!
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh!"
Golden light consecutively soared!
The abundant experience allowed Jiang Han to level up twice, reaching level 28.
In addition, beside the corpse, he found two exquisite-looking pieces of equipment and two gold coins without hesitation. After picking them up, he checked the equipment attributes—
[Rock Wall Armor] (Silver-grade)
Defense: 60-80
Health: 2000
Effect: Defense +15%
Required Level: 35
Introduction: Kunton's favorite armor, sturdy and heavy, with outstanding defense. He would always wear it when going on expeditions.
[Thunder Axe] (Silver-grade)
Attack: 100-120
Effect: Attack +10%, Attack Speed -10%
Required Level: 35
Introduction: A weapon that accompanied Kunton on the battlefield, the blade stained with the blood of countless people. Due to its excessive weight, it posed a great difficulty in swinging.
...
The armor attributes were good, but as for the weapon, despite the high level requirement, the attack bonus was not as good as his current Cold Cloud Sword, a golden-grade equipment. Naturally, he decided to sell it.
He took screenshots of the Thunder Axe and other equipment he had replaced and sent them to Long Teng Wan Li, asking, "What's the price?"
"Level 35, not bad..." Long Teng Wan Li added an expression of speechlessness to his reply.
Currently, the highest-level players in the Eastern region were only around level 23. This guy, however, directly took out an axe that required level 35 to sell. There was no market standard for this, making it quite troublesome to give a price.
"Just give a fair price." Jiang Han said.
Indeed, he could wait until top players reached level 35 to sell it, but the problem was, as someone who joined the Dark Faction, he had no storage and would lose his account directly if he died once. A week later, the siege war would be quite dangerous for him. He couldn't guarantee his survival, so selling unnecessary equipment in the inventory before the event started was the best choice.
In a more colloquial way, even if his account got destroyed, he made quite a bit of money in this game, had enough to cover daily expenses, and could create a new character and start over.
"Fifteen thousand!" Long Teng Wan Li didn't waste words, directly stating the price.
"Two hundred thousand!" Jiang Han raised the price.
"...Fine!"
Long Teng Wan Li agreed.
After all, it was a Silver-grade equipment with good attributes. Although it was still early, using it as a reward for the guild's first player to reach level 35 would motivate many people.
"By the way, why do you think the Thunder Axe can be sold for two hundred thousand?" Long Teng Wan Li was a bit puzzled.
The fifteen thousand price was already not low, and he thought the other party would readily accept it, but unexpectedly, the price was increased.
Jiang Han directly replied, "Because you have money!"
Just because this guy spent hundreds of thousands to announce his four-star growth, and he wasn't short of money. Adding another fifty thousand wouldn't make him bat an eye. Without taking advantage of the situation, his conscience would feel uneasy.
In a town somewhere far away, Long Teng Wan Li's mouth twitched. "Concise and to the point. You said it well."
He never expected that Jiang Han's answer would be so... straightforward!
"Don't worry, I won't deliberately rip you off. As long as the price is fair, I'll come to you first in the future. If the price isn't right, I'll find another buyer." Jiang Han replied, "If so, don't. Just come to me."
Long Teng Wan Li certainly didn't mind fifty thousand.
A person who aimed for big things didn't fuss over small details.
Two hundred thousand wasn't much for him, but Jiang Han had great potential. Even if it was just buying and selling equipment, it
could build a friendship.
Moreover, in terms of equipment alone, he didn't lose out.
...
After chatting for a while, Jiang Han hid the equipment in a corner of the Sunlight Forest, buried it with soil, and then waited for Long Teng Wan Li to transfer the money before telling him the specific coordinates.
Until the transaction was completed, Jiang Han had returned to the Dark City and went to his mentor to claim his quest rewards.
"Tell me, what do you want this time?" In terms of rewards, Daniel still showed great generosity, allowing Jiang Han to choose freely.
Such privileges were something other players could only dream of.
After some thought, Jiang Han asked, "Mentor, can I still have the Gifted Pearl as a gift?"
The armor requires level 35, but with the Gifted Pearl, he could equip it immediately.
"Sure." Daniel nodded in agreement.
"Ding!~"
System prompt: Congratulations on completing the quest "Destroy the Enemy Camp." Rewards: Experience +200,000, C-grade item "Gifted Pearl"!
Using the Gifted Pearl to lower the required level of the Rock Wall Armor, Jiang Han promptly equipped it. His defense and health increased once again.
