[Online Gaming] Love You 59 Seconds - Chapter 42
Proofreader: Jesse
Xiao Wu waited in the guild city and less than two minutes after she accepted the team invitation, Love You 59 Seconds came over.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: I’ll take you along
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Ok
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Let’s go
The team opened the following function; Xiao Wu was immediately getting dragged by Love You 59 Seconds.
Xiao Wu was getting beat from all sides today, not only did she feel completely helpless concerning the guild, the trading route was being very cruel to her too. It requires the players to go through Changbai Mountain, Plain Grassland, and Hua Long Manor; these areas all have monsters of level 90 and higher. Xiao Wu followed Love You 59 Seconds through the map and even though it is faster with the following function, the monsters here are not slow either. Soon enough there was a big tail of monsters being dragged behind them…
Moreover, when they moved to a new map he was slowed down even more due to the internet; Wu Han Ying was already quite slow with his hands, which caused him to almost die a few times at the teleport portal…
Finally, they had reached the designated trading point, Xiao Wu felt .
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Shifu…
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: In the end, how do we do the trading route
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: I can’t sell any
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: ???
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Lower than the purchase price so I can’t sell…
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: I’ve never done one
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: ……
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Wait for a bit
{Translator Input: The trading route//commercial trading is to help the players gain more money in their bag, but there is a time limit for every route. Think of it as buying from a wholesale company and then you go to smaller businesses to sell those items with a higher price to get more money. Each item has their high demand time, so if you pass its demand time at the high price, then you can’t sell the items. This making money route is quite complicated and hard for me to explain about it all in one go, so I just simplified it for everyone by giving the quick and dirty explanation above ^^}
Wu Han Ying patiently waited for a long time, on the screen Xiao Wu kept on making the automatic movement set by the game system…
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: How about now?
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: …No
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: ……
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: How about quit it…
Being despised…Wu Han Ying covered his face and looked at the time; it was about to get dark outside and he had wasted all day with nothing to show for it…
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: ……
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Ok…
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: But why can’t I get onto my mount
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Destroy the quest items
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: …don’t know how
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: I’ll take you there
{Translator Input: When you’re doing trading route, you are not allowed to use mount, because they don’t want you to cheat by using mount, so while you’re doing this “quest”, you move around on foot.}
Love You 59 Seconds sent a following request right after he typed in those messages; after accepting Xiao Wu was immediately dragged away to Kong Zong Yuan at Luoyang City to destroy the quest items.
It took Wu Han Ying a long time to destroy all the quest items, once all of the items were destroyed Xiao Wu was finally able to get on her mount…
The two of them obediently continued to collect the Timeless Ice Pieces. Xiao Wu had about 300 of them in her bag, Wu Han Ying did a little calculation and thought if his luck was good today, after finish 20 rounds he would have enough to be able to exchange them for a Bang Bang Tang.
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Sao Zi, why haven’t you finished one trading route? It’s been more than 1 hour
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: …I quit
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Why~
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: Don’t know how…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: E~e~e, let Lao Da teach you
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: …………
{Guild}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Never done it
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: I forgot…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: I forgot that the riches don’t have to do trading routes!!!
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Sao Zi come here, I’ll take you
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: Ok, wait for later; I’m doing Bang Bang Tang quest
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: =.= too flashy, my eyes hurt…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: You newlyweds continue with your couples quest…
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: ……
Wu Han Ying looked and saw that the guild channel was being monopolized by many people; he saw that a new round of teasing had started, so he decided to close the guild channel. Pretending to die is his best skill.
When he finished the 17th round of the quest, Wu Han Ying had collected enough Timeless Ice Pieces to exchange for a Bang Bang Tang.
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Which color looks good?
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Any
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Then blue it is
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Ok
Wu Han Ying looked at the female character wearing a pale blue bunny dress, thinking the blue Bang Bang Tang would look good with it, before the girl had a pale pink bunny dress on and a red Bang Bang Tang would look great, but now…
He clicked on the blue Bang Bang Tang and changed its status to bounded; he then opened the inventory, and switched the weapon. The little girl wearing a pale blue bunny dress immediately held a huge blue Bang Bang Tang in her hand; he had to say it really does look adorable, no wonder all the girls wanted it.
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Trading
Once he read the message in the team chat, Wu Han Ying looked at the trading tab and saw that it was flashing; when he opened it he found that Love You 59 Seconds put in a lot of things. He traded a gem mosaic, fortifiers, and also perforations.
{Translator Note:
Gem Mosaic – to be able to inlay a gem into the weapon
Fortifiers – to strengthen the equipment, the higher the level the more powerful it is
Perforations – to create/to make a hole on the equipment}
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: ??
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: To inlay Lan Jing Shi {Blue Gem} to your Bang Bang Tang
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: It’ll emit blue light
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: ……
{Team}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Or do you want to inlay Hong Jing Shi {Red Gem}?
{Team}[Xiao Wu]: Blue!
Xiao Wu obediently headed to the NPC with the material to inlay the gem; this was his first time using the mosaic. First he punched a hole into the Bang Bang Tang, then he inlaid the Lan Jing Shi in it and finally strengthened it.
After spending almost all night finishing the quest and creating the Bang Bang Tang, Xiao Wu was finally able to hold onto the Bang Bang Tang again. He couldn’t help thinking that it looked a lot better than before; the blue gem emitted a blue light, it was very bright like a blue flame and ray after ray of light flashed out. As Xiao Wu ran, a tail of blue light followed behind her, it looked really pretty.
{Guild}[Feng-er Sha-er Wo Tu]: (^o^)/~Aiyo, such an accomplishment
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Sao Zi!! You’ve finished your Bang Bang Tang?! It’s blue ah!!
{Guild}[Wo Ben Chun Jie]: Sao Zi, you really are “fierce” {T/N: this fierce is a game slang, when you see someone try to create rare equipment that is really hard to come by, you would call them “fierce” for having the patience and time to do it, which is saying that not everyone can}
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: Um, it’s blue
Wu Han Ying wanted to ask them how they knew his Bang Bang Tang was blue, but he saw the system notification before he could type out his question…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Pure level 7 Lan Jing Shi ah ah ah ah ah ah
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: I I I I, mine is just level 3
{Guild}[Qian Qian Junzi]: Obviously the “fierce” one is Lao Da
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: But Sao Zi
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Your bunny dress is pink, right? Why did you get a blue Bang Bang Tang
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: The color doesn’t match ah
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: …I’ve changed to a blue one
{Guild}[Feng-er Sha-er Wo Tu]: Sao Zi, you dyed it?
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: …Not me
{Guild}[Love You 59 Seconds]: Blue color looks better
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: As I thought…
{Guild}[Feng-er Sha-er Wo Tu]: Lao Da, you dyed it…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Actually, I also think the blue bunny dress looks cute…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: But we are always at a disadvantage when competing with the system
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: In the end, it would only turn into a big mess…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: But Lao Da sure is the boss ah
Later on Wu Han Ying learned that the system generates random colors when players attempt to dye fashion clothing, the more they tried to re-dye the more of a mess it becomes, so everyone stopped trying to rival with the system…but those oddball people are a different matter…
{Guild}[Qian Qian Junzi]: *touching chin*
{Guild}[Qian Qian Junzi]: I remember Sao Zi has a pink A Zhu dress
{Guild}[Qian Qian Junzi]: I’m guessing it will also turn blue by tomorrow
{Guild}[Xiao Wu]: ……
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Agree!
{Guild}[Feng-er Sha-er Wo Tu]: Agree!
{Guild}[Qi Yue Wei]: 59, are you on?
Xia Chen returned to his seat after brewing himself a cup of coffee, he looked at Qian Qian Junzi’s words and thought it wasn’t a bad idea. Turning everything blue is much better than pink, but before he could type in his reply he saw a line appear in the guild channel; he looked at the other’s name and frowned.
{Guild}[Qian Qian Junzi]: I must start my day on a wrong path today…
{Guild}[Xiao Xiao Xiao~]: Why
{Whisper}you said to [Qian Qian Junzi]: What is this?
{Whisper}[Qian Qian Junzi] said to you: Lao Da, I don’t know
{Whisper}[Qian Qian Junzi] said to you: I’ve never told her you play the game
Xia Chen frowned even deeper, but he did not say anything. After a while he heard his phone ring loudly, he should’ve known it was Jun Zhe calling over; he impatiently picked up.
“Lao Da, I really don’t know what’s going on. I was also shocked at seeing her name earlier. This Miss Qi really doesn’t give up; she even came into the game to chase after you.” Jun Zhe said all of this in a hurry, “Lao Da, what do you think, in the end are you going to make a phone call to Sao Zi? If you really like her you should hurry and take her to see your old man, so that Miss Qi would stop all her advances.”
“I know what to do.” replied Xia Chen as he looked at the screen, one could only guess whether he was listening (to Jun Zhe’s words) or not.
{Whisper}[Love You 59 Seconds] said to you: I’m out first
{Whisper}you said to [Love You 59 Seconds]: Ok, 88 {bye bye}
Wu Han Ying looked at the time, it was not even 10 o’clock. This was the first time Love You 59 Seconds logged out this early. As he watched the big Wudang suddenly disappear, Xiao Wu really did not know what to do. In the end he decided to follow Xiao Xiao Xiao on a trading route so he could earn some money.
Even with someone else guiding the way, poor Wu Han Ying still failed to finish. He got robbed by others halfway through and before he could do anything he was immediately sent to Hell to drink Meng Bo’s soup.
