BXBX NOVEL Chapter 171 Back To Business
But from the ashes comes the Phoenix.
Sure enough, the respawn countdown began, and the dead rose again.
~Whoosh!
Miroku\'s eyes opened with evident shock in them.
Hah— Hahahahaha!~~
Alive… Alive... He was alive again!
Miroku took his first breath gleefully.
F***!
It felt good to be back.
After tasting death in this manner, he never wanted to experience such a frightening thing again.
But what was strange was that his fear level for death had now drastically gone down compared to before.
Because one had never tasted death before, it was only fitting that they should be scared right out Of their boots.
However, if he were to experience it repeatedly, the fear of \'death\' becomes meaningless as time passes.
At the same time, he would be more bold, confident, and thought-seeking than before.
As they say, with growth comes wisdom and experience.
Miroku\'s once-dead eyes moistened from the large intake of white light.
Good. Good... He was back.
And now, it was payback time!
What?!!
The Thieves opened their eyes in shock.
"You-you-you-you! How is this possible? How?... Why are you still alive?"
"Bastards! You were playing dead all along?"
"Cowards, Cowards! How dare you sneak attack me?"
“How dare you swing my way?”
"Com’on! Kill these bastards for me! I don\'t care if you all were pretending to be dead or not. But don\'t think that any of you can escape our clutches anymore."
"Die for me!!!!"
~Bam. Bam. Bam. Pah. Boom!
(xox)
....
Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!~~~
The players all geared up to have their revenge, beating and killing the shit out of these bandits, with some also acquiring the weapons and possessions of those they killed.
Miroku looked at the low-grade saber in his inventory and was very satisfied. He also placed a healing potion and a pouch of coins into his inventory.
Hey...
People were willing to deliver items right to his doorstep. So why should he not take advantage of this? Who knows if he would be able to have the opportunity to get any items once he entered the massive guarded city.
His best bet would be to buy items. But without money, he would have to work for it, no?
The hint stated there was a Guild for players to take up missions and collect information that would benefit them going upwards. So it looked like that was the fastest way of making money.
The money he had just robbed might not be enough to register into the Academy and train as a beast tamer.
His time and days would be running out at this rate. That\'s why he planned to use these next 2 days to gather as much money as he wanted before entering the academy.
From there, he should gain skills and have the ability to defend against the First Trail within this Snakes & Ladders world.
Hey! The lava would cover the entire floating island pretty soon. So he had to work fast!
~Bam! Pah! Boom!
The realm was a huge success!
Snakes & Ladders! Snakes & Ladders!
In the blink of an eye, Chu Che and everyone else finally left the simulation and returned to reality.
And now, the men from the Hyu village had long dropped their guards down.
.
Miroku\'s eyes twinkled in determination. "Rely on! Boss Chu, this world is too awesome! I can\'t believe that after so many attempts and trials, I still couldn\'t beat the game and advance to the next stage."
"That\'s right. Too incredible! That snake Guard, Sorapina, was just too brutal and scheming." Village chief Yangku grumbled angrily.
Yangku remembered all the many attempts he made.
And every time he challenged, the scene was very different from what he would remember. Meaning it was constantly changing.
The Challenge involved a test of many strengths, intelligence included.
Augh~
In one incident, he not only had to drop a weird cube (dice) onto a massive board but also had to control the elements to do so.
The cube could expand to giant size or retract to ant size instead. And landing the Cube at the correct points on the board was essential. But that wasn\'t all.
After the cube stopped, whatever it landed on would be the ultimate challenge.
What? Did you think throwing the dice was the challenge? Think again!
Your fate, throwing abilities, and luck would pick what you\'ll be tested on. And from there, a massive challenge door would appear.
Step in, and begin your challenge against the giant snake Guards on each level.
The men from the Hyu Village talked excitedly about their fun adventure in the simulation world while also feeling amazed at how much strength they seemed to have acquired from it all.
.
Boom!
Miroku glanced at his body in shock.
Did he just break through to the 2nd Dan?
This... This... What sort of Godly fate was this?
(°_°)
Old Fru looked at his dazed expression and chuckled: "Your talent isn\'t bad. And you were already at the late stages of the 1st Dan. So it would make sense to break through like this, no?"
"Hahahahhaha!" Yangku laughed merrily: "That\'s my boy! My boy had just broken through!"
"Congratulations, junior. Our Hyu Village is stronger than before."
"Congratulations, Junior."
"Congratulations, Junior..."
The men of Hyu village were all delighted and slightly envious of Miroku.
You know, even though he was already 29 years old and late to the cultivator game, they all started at the same time with him a few years back.
But now, just like his father, he had broken through to the 2nd Dan of the True Qi stage, leaving them, who were elders in the dust.
Luckily, with this new found world, they should also be able to break through too, from what they saw on their Park cards.
Chu Che glanced at the merry gang wryly.
Well, it was time to get down to business.
[Side Mission: Save The Hyu Villagers, and set up a teleportation point in their village.]
