Chapter 21 : Game Update, Fate Necklace with Explosive Attributes
After discussing with Ye Feng, Xia Shiyu went to pay the hospital bills with her bank card. The nurse, noticing someone making a payment for Xia Junming, glanced at Xia Shiyu involuntarily.
âNurse, can my dad start dialysis now?â
The nurse nodded, âAs long as the payment is made, he can start. But I must remind you, itâs already late for dialysis. Kidney transplantation must happen quickly. If you miss the optimal time, it might be too late.â
âAh!! How long can it be delayed? â
âI canât say for sure because Iâm not a doctor. But probably a month or so, it wonât be possible after that.â
âOh!!â
Confidently, Ye Feng interjected, âXiaoyu, donât worry. Iâm sure I can help you raise the money within a month.â
Xia Shiyu nodded, but there was not much trust in her eyes. She felt like a drowning child, grabbing onto anything around her.
Seeing her skepticism, Ye Feng didnât say more. He thought actions spoke louder than words, and once the facts are in front of her, there would be no need to talk about whether she believed it or not.
âXiaoyu, is the hospital bill paid?â
Turning around, Xia Shiyu saw Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan. Su Lin had two fruit baskets in his hand and Lin Xiaowan had a bouquet of flowers in her hand. The two looked like a perfect couple, making Xia Shiyu somewhat envious.
âXiaowan, I told you not to buy fruit. Why did you buy so much?â
âYou should ask Su Lin. We agreed that I would pick them, but this guy kept adding one after another, and in the end, we bought two baskets.â
âHehe, thank Su Lin.â
Su Lin waved his hand, âThese fruits are suitable for uremic patients. Xiaoyu, when you go back, make some for Uncle Xia, preferably as a liquid.â
âMm~!!â
âAlright, letâs not stand here. Letâs go see Uncle Xia.â
âOkay~!!â
Ye Feng, observing that Xia Shiyu hadnât mentioned him borrowing money or making money to Su Lin and Lin Xiaowan, felt content. âDespite your good relationship, can it surpass childhood friends?â He said inwardly.
Ye Feng felt that as a reborn person, it would be quite easy for him to get 300,000 with his memories from his previous life.
The group of four headed straight to the inpatient department. Seeing Ye Fengâs confident appearance, Su Lin couldnât help but find it amusing.
âIn less than three days, this guy would be crying.â
â¦â¦â¦.
Night came after three days passed. Su Lin once again found Chen Yang and informed him to raise the purchase price of the Fate Necklaces to 600. As long as someone was selling, he would buy.
At this point, Chen Yang no longer cared about Su Linâs intentions. He just followed Su Linâs instructions.
That night, he was surprised to find that there were other buyers in the game, and their prices were higher than his. He was buying them for six hundred, while Ye Feng was buying them for seven hundred.
[Yifeng Love Letter]: Necklaces of Fate for the entire server, 700 Yuan for one necklace. Iâll buy as many as you have. Transaction on the platform. Reputation guaranteed.[Yifeng Love Letter]: Necklaces of Fate for the entire server, 700 RMB for one necklace. Iâll buy as many as you have. Transaction on the platform. Reputation guaranteed.
â¦â¦..
Su Lin was at home playing the game again. Unlike Chen Yang, Su Lin could play the game at home, not needing to go to an Internet cafe.
âYifeng Love Letter, Ye Fengâs name is really cool. Tsk tskâ¦â
[Zi Yang Merchant] PM: âBrother Lin, someone is trying to steal our business. 700 RMB for one necklace. Do we still need to raise the price?â[Shuangmu Lin] PM: âNo need, Yangzi. Let him buy. We just need to stabilize the price at 600 RMB. Let him keep the price at 700 RMB.â[Zi Yang Merchant] PM: âBrother Lin, are you saying that we should stop buying and raise our price to compete with him?â[Shuangmu Lin] PM: âThatâs right. Weâve already bought enough necklaces, so we need to leave some for others.â[Zi Yang Merchant] sent a private message: âAlright, Brother Lin. I understand.â
Yang Chen didnât understand what Su Lin was thinking, but he still chose to do as Su Lin said.
At this moment, Ye Fengâs heart was bleeding. If he didnât know that the price of Necklaces of Fate in his previous life had risen to five or six thousand Yuan, he wouldnât have been able to bring himself to buy them for 700 Yuan.
âStupid Zi Yang Merchant. Why didnât you just buy them for 500 Yuan? Why did you have to raise the price to compete with me? Look at what happened, I canât even make any money.â
Because Yang Chen had been raising the price of Necklaces of Fate, the black market merchants in the game had sensed a business opportunity. Although they didnât know why the price of Necklaces of Fate had risen, it didnât stop them from buying.
Hence, when Ye Feng went online, there were already people buying the necklaces. He didnât care because only he knew that the price of the necklaces would increase by many times. However, he didnât know the initial price. He could tell that most of these merchants were hoarders.
New maps and world bosses were about to be released, so the price of the equipment would definitely increase. Especially when new maps and world bosses are released, the prices of equipmentâs would increase exponentially.
â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦
Three days passed in a flash. In the blink of an eye, it was time for the update of City of Angels.
Ye Feng didnât pay much attention to the game update but devoted more time to studying. After his rebirth, he found that his memory had significantly improved. He only needed to read a book three or four times to remember it firmly which gave him a glimmer of hope.
He felt that, perhaps, with some effort, he could get into a good university in this life. Dreaming further, he imagined attending university with Xia Shiyu, Lin Xiaowan, and others. Hence, he didnât spend any time on the game.
The version update concluded, and at eight in the evening, the first world boss respawned.
Su Lin controlled his character to enter the battlefield with very average equipment, except for the special Fate Necklace in his necklace slot. Following the order from the guild, hundreds of players entered the battlefield.
With an order from the guild, a few hundred players controlled their characters to enter the battlefield. Su Linâs character was a Swordsman. Because of his trash equipment, he was a cannon fodder character.
However, he didnât mind at all. Controlling his character, he charged straight into the battle and unleashed an AOE skill.
An AOE skill was unleashed.
-1424â¦.-1475â¦.-1452
[Splash] -1434⦠[Splash] -2547⦠[Splash] -4527⦠[Skill interrupted, Splash effect reset].
Everyone in the guild was stunned when they saw the bright red numbers continuously increasing.
âF*ck⦠Double Wood Lin must be cheating, this is too fierce. The damage numbers are over ten thousand!â
âThatâs crazy. The splash damage is over ten thousand. Thatâs fake.â
âFake, fake. Even with top-tier equipment, I only deal six thousand damage.â
Seeing this, Su Lin typed in the guild channel, âIâm not cheating; itâs just the additional damage from the Fate Necklace.â
âStop joking. The additional damage from the Necklaces of Fate is a fixed percentage damage. How can it be over ten thousand?â
âTake a closer look!!â Someone opened the Fate Necklaceâs attributes and carefully examined them.
âDamn⦠The fixed damage is gone.â
The entire guild channel fell silent in an instant. The damage had changed from fixed to growth.
Su Lin, with his rubbish equipment, could deal over two thousand. If he had top-tier gear and combined it with a Fate Necklace, wouldnât a single AOE hit for several hundred thousand? Moreover, the Splash effect could stack infinitely.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
As long as the skill wasnât interrupted, the damage would continue to stack. Â Seeing that the effect of the Necklaces of Fate was discovered a few days earlier than in the original novel, Su Lin smiled.
