Lu Li wanted to decline, but he had to let her finish her sentence first, so he nodded.
I’ve signed a contract with the gaming company. The contract requires me to be a part of their filming of the gaming process. I’m hoping that you can train and help me level up; I have no clue about gaming in general,
Su Mei explained with a slightly embarrassed smile.
It might sound like a joke, but I’ve never played a single game in my life before.
Lu Li’s rationality told him that this was a lie; how could anyone not have played a single game throughout their life in this age?
Even an old man, old enough to have stepped one foot into his grave, would have entered a virtual reality game to plant some gardens at least once.
However, Su Mei seemed to have this strange aura about her that made others find it hard to doubt her at all. Even Lu Li was impacted, but he was still a rational person, so he quickly adjusted his mentality.
Sorry, I’m quite busy most of the time, and I think it might be better to start off as a clean slate.
His messenger kept vibrating.
Lu Li had blocked almost all channels; there were only a handful of people who could harass him at this time.
He quickly scanned across and picked the two most important ones to read.
The most important one was obviously from Lu Xin – she had snuck online again. Next time, he needed to make sure to teach her a good lesson.
Then, there was Square Root 3. It was as if both of them had reached an agreement; they had had both sent out the same message.
Say yes, say yes. If you don’t say yes, you’re dead.
Of course, Lu Xin’s threat was more important. If he didn’t agree, she wouldn’t call him her brother anymore.
For Lu Li, this was even worse than someone killing him.
Lu Li was someone with his own standards and morals, but sometimes he would forget about these, so he quickly changed his tone.
But if you really need it, I guess I can consider.
The crowd below the stage boiled.
They had experienced three up and downs.
First, Su Mei had invited Lu Li to play games with her. Without a doubt, countless people would have wanted to be Lu Li. Even if he was going to die tomorrow, they wouldn’t have minded.
Then there was Lu Li’s declination, which they all cursed because of how ungrateful he was. However, now that he had declined, the opportunity had opened up to them.
Then, when Lu Li changed his attitude entirely, everyone couldn’t help but curse out loudly.
You , where are your values? You’re the key figure to Ruling Sword, a celebrity amongst the gaming industry. Where’s your shame?
Su Mei laughed so hard that she bent over.
She had a very, very slim waist. Her outfit especially showed her waistline, so it was very tempting from Lu Li’s angle.
It was better for him not to look, so he turned away.
For the first time, he felt like this girl was an absolute enchantress. He couldn’t help but compare her to Water Fairy.
Then let’s be friends first,
Su Mei said.
It wasn’t possible for them to send each other friend requests right now, and Lu Li didn’t want to continue wasting time on stage. There were too many people watching them and this was a livestream too. As a Thief, he felt more comfortable to stay out of the lights.
Perhaps it was time for him to find an equip to change his name temporarily.
Then, he quickly scanned to see Su Mei’s in-game-name, which was actually Ms. Su. He had no clue that this was the nickname that Su Mei’s fans had given her.
It seemed like Su Mei was someone who could also read the situation, so she handed over the gift box and the award cup to Lu Li as soon as he agreed. Then, she even stretched out her hand…
Old Man Power, who had already been teleported out, was quite disappointed. Although everyone referred to him as a homosexual, he actually liked girls. Su Mei was a famous celebrity, so if she offered to shake hands, there was no way he would’ve declined.
Why hadn’t he received this treatment?
Then he thought that Lu Li would decline, since he was always good at pretending to be serious.
In that case, Su Mei would look bad, and would hate Lu Li.
Although Lu Li had a strange kind of personality, that didn’t mean he was socially inept. In fact, after all that he had gone through, he had become smoother, so he didn’t turn down the handshake. It wasn’t that bad at all to shake hands with someone who was so pretty.
Send my regards to her. Oh, right. She’s called Water Fairy in the game,
Su Mei said.
Why did he feel like he had gotten caught in bed in the middle of an affair?
Besides the experience, he also received an extra skill point.
The experience that he received wasn’t much – it was just enough for him to reach about 20% of his level 48 EXP bar. It wasn’t much compared to Old Man Power, but that was because the greatest reward for second place was the experience. The skill point was an unexpected surprise because no one else had it.
The Legendary equip was inside the small gift box, but Lu Li wouldn’t take it out in front of everyone else, even though that’s what the majority wanted to see.
He was grateful that the gaming company didn’t announce its Attributes. Besides those rich boys who wanted to show off, no one wanted everyone to know what equipment they had.
After he was teleported off the stage, he opened the gift box immediately.
It was a pair of shoes, as expected.
Champion’s Boots (Epic): Armor 80, Agility +100, Constitution +50, Movement Speed +25%, 2 Slots. Special Effect 1: Kick Skill +1. This has a certain chance of silencing a target for 3 seconds. Special Effect 2: Shadow Step. Break into the shadows and appear behind the target. Within 10 seconds, your next Ambush or attack has 30% increased damage and your movement speed is increased by 80%. Lasts 5 seconds, 2-minute cooldown. Special Effect 3: Sudden Thrust. Cast to instantly move 15 yards in any direction. This deals 200% attack damage to all targets along the line, and the user is invincible while moving. 3-minute cooldown. Equipment Requirements: Level 60. Durability 375/375.
There was a small row of gold text beneath that read,
In remembrance of Mr Lu Li’s outstanding performance in the first season of the marathon competition.
Lu Li could feel his heart pound hard as he read through the long list of Attributes and special effects.
Even though the last bit of the description that showed the level requirement slightly disappointed him, he was still elated. At the very most, he would just have to spend some money to buy a stone that reduced the level requirement. There was bound to be a lucky guy out there somewhere.
He needed to find a stone with at least a -20% requirement level for him to be able to wear this equipment at level 48.
This wasn’t hard – it was very hard. The System had reduced the drop rate for these stones and the demand for them had increased. Even the -5% stones were becoming more difficult to find.
