[Wind Leopard Bloodline Crystal: Mortal-Level Bloodline, Physique Series. The wind leopard is a darling of the wind, with speed as fast as the gale. Consuming it grants the Wind Leopard Bloodline, which must be used along with the Wind Leopard Scripture.]
[Wind Leopard Scripture: Mortal-Level Demon Sutra. This is the Demon Sutra used by the Wind Leopard Clan to enhance their speed, greatly magnifying the power of the Wind Leopard’s bloodline. Are you sure you want to use it now?] “The speed is as fast as a gale. Is this a speed-oriented bloodline?”
Su Nan slightly knitted his brows. His Mountain Elephant and Iron Ape bloodlines were strength-oriented bloodlines. If possible, he hoped to continue integrating strength-oriented bloodlines.
That would cause the least conflict between bloodlines and also most obviously improve strength.
If he now integrated this Wind Leopard bloodline, although his speed would significantly increase, his strength growth would be relatively less.
This type of growth could potentially allow a well-rounded development and reduce weaknesses, but it wasn’t what he wanted.
But then the problem emerged. If he didn’t use this bloodline, where could he get another bloodline?
In the game at this point, he couldn’t find a place like a trading mall.
Besides, there were no other players where he was, so even if he wanted to trade with other players, he couldn’t do it.
“Forget it. I’ll hold on to it for now. If I don’t get any other bloodline, it won’t be too late to integrate this one.”
After contemplating for a moment, Su Nan decided not to use the bloodline.
He quit the game.
went to bed to sleep.
“Wang Chong, what makes you so happy?”
In Linjiang Hotel, Su Nan saw Wang Chong beaming from ear to ear and was slightly intrigued.
“Big Brother Nan, I have some great news for you. Miss Bai has given the last right to use the game bracelet to me. From now on, I am a part of Miss Bai’s studio.”
Wang Chong was very excited. He had always hoped to join Bai Mengmeng’s studio, but back then he knew that it was just his imagination.
He never expected that because of yesterday’s incident, he would actually be valued by Bai Mengmeng.
He got a promotion straight away and his future seems to have gotten closer to Bai Mengmeng.
Su Nan figured out what was going on and was secretly relieved and happy for Wang Chong.
He patted Wang Chong’s shoulder and jested, “Congratulations on that, you have to remember me when you marry a rich beauty.”
“Hehe, don’t worry, Brother Nan. I’ll take care of you.” Wang Chong laughed.
He then seemed to remember something, the smile on his face faded slightly, and he said in a serious tone, “Brother Nan, as far as I know, Miss Bai planned to give this opportunity to you, but you turned it down.”
Su Nan came up with a random excuse, “Now there is a survival task in the game. If you can’t complete it, you’ll never be able to enter the game again. Instead of being eliminated after entering the game now, it’s better to enter later when other players have become stronger. The difficulty would be a lot smaller.”
Wang Chong stared at Su Nan, his voice slightly heavy, “Brother Nan, did you reject Miss Bai because you wanted to give the opportunity to me?”
Su Nan laughed, “You’re overthinking it. I’m really planning to enter the game later.”
However, his explanation clearly didn’t work. Wang Chong was even more convinced that Su Nan had deliberately given the opportunity to him, and he said excitedly, “Brother Nan, if you change your mind, I will go to Miss Bai immediately and ask her to give the spot back to you!”
Su Nan immediately said, “Don’t! Even if you give me the opportunity, I won’t take it. Maybe later Miss Bai will change her mind and give the opportunity to someone else.”
He was joking. He had barely managed to reject Bai Mengmeng and certainly didn’t want Wang Chong to make a mess of things.
Upon hearing this, Wang Chong figured out the possibilities too, and he fell silent. After a moment, he solemnly said, “Brother Nan, rest assured, I will not let your kindness go to waste. Once I become stronger in the game, I will definitely get you a game bracelet.”
Su Nan laughed, “Okay, since you’ve said so much, it will be up to you to get me that bracelet.”
“Brother Nan, you can count on me. I will absolutely complete the task!” Wang Chong promised.
The game bracelet was merely an episode; it had no impact on Su Nan’s work.
With Wang Chong joining Bai Mengmeng’s studio and focusing all his energy on the game, he naturally could no longer continue his job as a security guard.
That afternoon, Security Chief Fatty Li reassigned a new partner for Su Nan to fill Wang Chong’s position.
The newcomer was one of the guards who had just arrived yesterday. He was in his early twenties, a few years younger than Su Nan. His name was Liu Xutao.
Thanks to Wang Chong’s introduction the day before, Liu Xutao got familiar with the name Brother Nan and had no issues in addressing him accordingly all day.
As night fell…
Returning home, Su Nan opened the forum and saw several private messages from Li Hao.
“Big brother, it’s bad. Your number one spot might not last any longer!”
After clicked to read it, an unexpected look surfaced on his face.
It turned out that last night, Qian Yu and Zhou Cheng, who had already achieved perfection in the second Demon Sutra, had made yet another breakthrough.
They had upgraded their second Demon Sutra to Great Perfection.
Now, on the leaderboard, he and the second-placed Qian Yu, as well as the third-placed Zhou Cheng, all had two types of Demon Sutras at Great Perfection.
Although he was still ranking first since he was the first one to achieve Great Perfection in two Demon Sutras, many people thought that his first-place spot could potentially be overtaken by Qian Yu or Zhou Cheng at any time.
“These two people just reached perfection in the Demon Sutra, and they achieved Great Perfection as soon as their daily tasks refreshed. This means that each of them has gained at least 10 demon power points today!”
“No wonder they were among the first batch of top players; their speed in gaining demon power is unparalleled.” Su Nan sighed secretly.
But he was not in a hurry.
There were still 12 days left until the end of the survival task. It was meaningless to vye for the temporary first place.
Besides, if he wanted to, he could upgrade his third Demon Sutra to perfection now.
After finding a player’s screenshot of the leaderboard on the forum…
Only then did Su Nan find out that after today’s public beta test’s third day, the leaderboard had undergone significant changes.
The number of players who had achieved Great Perfection in the Demon Sutra had reached 32!
That was a threefold increase from the first day!
As for players who had achieved one Demon Sutra to Perfection, there were hundreds, and many of them were newcomers.
“It seems that players who had adventures are not in the minority!” Su Nan sighed.
With the increase in the player base, originally small probability of adventure events can turn into a high likelihood.
Some players were lucky and took off right from the start of the game. This wasn’t impossible.
“Big brother, I got news that Zhou Cheng’s people are planning to act tonight, what should we do?”
Another one of Li Hao’s messages caught Su Nan’s attention.
They planned to act tonight? Such a hurry?
“I wonder what Zhou Cheng’s mainline task is all about. I hope it doesn’t affect me.”
Zhou Cheng’s final mainline task was at the four-star level, which could mean that he was aiming big.
If it was anywhere else, he would at most be curious about it and not bother much.
But the location of Zhou Cheng’s task was in Kun Tian Prison. Now, his identity in the game was the guard of Kun Tian Prison, and their paths had intersected.
Instructing Li Hao to continue watching Zhou Cheng’s moves, Su Nan logged into the game.
He still had two chances for foreknowledge today, and he couldn’t afford to waste them.
Through foreknowledge, he planned to inspect some of the locations marked on the map..
