Just logged in, Lu Yang's mailbox was constantly beeping. He opened it and saw it was from Old Twilight.
"Hey bro, can you do me a favor? I haven't collected all the materials you need, but I need to go to a dungeon. Can you give me the shield in advance?"
Lu Yang chuckled. He didn't expect Old Twilight to lower himself and ask for his help. This was the president of a 30,000-member guild, and would later be a famous national war commander, yet he was asking for his help.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yang replied with a message.
Inside the dungeon, Old Twilight fell for the third time in front of the first boss. Fierce Wine Clear Wind, the vice president beside him, said, "Boss, it's not going to work if we keep fighting like this. Without a good shield, I, the MT, can't hold on at all."
MT refers to the shield warrior or shield knight, the player who mainly tanks the monsters when fighting in a dungeon.
Old Twilight said, "I know, but Lu Yang isn't online, so I can't buy one. How's Xiong Ba doing? Which level have they reached?"
Fierce Wine Clear Wind said, "They've already reached the second boss in the dungeon."
"Damn it." The old man couldn't help but curse, saying, "No wonder that grandson didn't compete with me for the shield this morning. So he's already gotten that far."
"Boss, we can't let Xiong Ba and them clear the first dungeon first. This achievement will be announced in the entire game, and it will have a huge impact on recruiting players in the future."
"I know." Old Twilight was also a little anxious, but there was nothing he could do. Now all the major guilds were vying for this first achievement. As soon as a shield appeared, it was bought before Old Twilight could even find it. It was already his luck to have met Lu Yang.
Just as he was worried, Old Twilight received a message from Lu Yang.
"Bro, you're finally online." Old Twilight said excitedly.
"What's up?" Lu Yang asked.
"Don't even mention it." Old Twilight quickly told him about the setbacks he encountered in the dungeon.
"Who knew the dungeons in Second World would be so difficult? An ordinary level 3 dungeon, and our 20 most elite players can't even beat the first boss. What do you call that?" Old Twilight said.
Lu Yang wasn't surprised. In order to prevent players from leveling up too quickly, and also to reduce the depreciation time of equipment, Second World restricted the production of equipment on the one hand, and increased the difficulty of dungeons on the other hand. An ordinary level 3 dungeon not only required the cooperation of 20 players, but also required a certain equipment base, especially the main MT. Without equipment, it was impossible to pass.
"I can give you the shield first. Have someone come to the entrance of Hotel 7 in the East District. I'll wait for you here," Lu Yang said. He believed that Old Twilight wouldn't steal his equipment.
Old Twilight was originally worried that Lu Yang would disagree, and was even wondering whether to offer money as collateral. He sensed that Lu Yang wasn't a person who particularly cared about money. If he talked to him about money, Lu Yang would definitely disagree, but he was also afraid that his empty words would make Lu Yang disagree even more. He didn't expect Lu Yang to trust his character so much, agreeing without any collateral.
"Bro, thank you for your help this time. I owe you a favor. If you ever need my help in the future, I will definitely do my best," Old Twilight said.
That was exactly what Lu Yang wanted to hear. He said, "Okay, I'll keep that in mind."
"Then wait for me, I'll send someone over right away." After Old Twilight sent the message, he turned to the vice president Fierce Wine Clear Wind and said, "Go to Hotel 7 in the East District. Lu Yang is online, and he agreed to give us the shield first."
"Great, I'll go right away." Fierce Wine Clear Wind took out a Return Scroll and flew back to the main city.
Return Scrolls were rare items, not sold by the system, but occasionally dropped by monsters. The return location was not set by the players themselves, but defaulted by the system to the square at the birthplace.
It only took 2 minutes to get from the square to Hotel 7 in the East District. Not long after, Lu Yang saw a young man running over. He remembered that this person was the player who was following behind Old Twilight in the morning.
"Expert, I'm here," Fierce Wine Clear Wind shouted.
Lu Yang waved his hand, and when the other party came closer, he said, "You're Fierce Wine Clear Wind, right?"
"Yes, Old Twilight sent me."
While Fierce Wine Clear Wind was speaking, he sent a trade request. Lu Yang saw that the other party's name was correct and put the Wyrm Battle Shield on it.
Fierce Wine Clear Wind's eyes went straight when he saw the attributes of the Wyrm Battle Shield. He quickly clicked to trade and said, "Expert, thank you so much. With this shield, we finally have hope of clearing the dungeon."
Lu Yang smiled and said, "I wish you success."
"Thank you for your kind words." Fierce Wine Clear Wind was anxious to return to the dungeon, so he left after saying a few words.
After Lu Yang sent Fierce Wine Clear Wind away, he entered the helmet code he bought for Xiao Liang in the game friend search bar.
Originally, this helmet code was for the game company to facilitate players to find each other, but unexpectedly, later many players randomly entered codes to communicate in order to meet new friends, making this function instead become a new dating software.
"0019852476" After entering the code, Lu Yang saw a name called Black Armor Warrior.
"This kid, he really still has this name." Lu Yang smiled and said. In his previous life, Xiao Liang had this name.
At this time, Xiao Liang had rushed to the outside of the main city and joined the monster-grabbing army. After the first day of the game, the number of players in the level 1 monster area not only did not decrease, but increased a lot.
As an ambitious young man, Xiao Liang had imagined the scene of himself dominating this game in the future when he heard that this game was about to be launched. He had secretly vowed that if he had a game helmet, he would do his best to level up, and if he had a game helmet, he would become a great expert.
However, now looking at the level 1 monster area on the big map, almost every square meter of the green grassland was occupied by four people. As soon as a monster spawned, there would be six or seven wooden swords slashing at the same time. To grab a monster, you had to compete not only in hand speed but also in luck. If you brushed too far away, you couldn't hit it, and if you were too slow, you couldn't beat it. And to level up, you needed to kill dozens of such monsters. Thinking of this, Xiao Liang looked depressed.
"Why is it so difficult?" Xiao Liang opened the Level Rankings in frustration. When he saw that the player named Lu Yang in first place had reached level 4, he sighed again.
"Sigh, I really don't know how this person leveled up. Strange, why is this person's name the same as my boss's?" Xiao Liang said.
At this moment, a friend request appeared, and the name of this person was Lu Yang.
Xiao Liang looked at the names of the two people and found that they were exactly the same. He quickly clicked confirm and said excitedly, "Boss, is that number one on the Level Rankings you?"
Lu Yang said with a smile, "Of course."
