Chapter 19 Candle Dragon Crescent Blade

With the use of two A-grade props, the golden Guangong Blade began to slowly change.

The baleful aura that originally radiated outwards began to slowly converge, forming black patches on the blade. The areas not covered by the baleful aura were a clear white.

The entire Guangong Blade was half black and half white, emitting a dazzling cold light, much like the mythical descriptions of Zhujiuyin's abilities: when its eyes close, there is darkness; when its eyes open, there is light.

Joe Elm looked at the upgraded Guangong Blade's attributes.

[Candle Dragon Guangong Blade]:

Grade: A

Dragon Clan Intimidation: Dragon-related creatures facing players wielding this weapon suffer a 20% reduction in strength.

"Oh my god..."

After reading the effects of the Candle Dragon Guangong Blade, Joe Elm's eyes lit up. His mind was filled with Zha Zha Hui's devilish voice: This is a brand-new version you haven't experienced before. Just try it for three minutes, and you'll love this game just like I do.

The Skeleton King Ring increased it by 50%, the Baleful Aura Blade increased it by 100%, plus his own attack power of over a thousand, and with a critical hit in the light state...

Joe Elm couldn't imagine how terrifying the damage would be with a single strike.

With this blade, he felt that he could now really go toe-to-toe with high-level players.

A large blade like this was just too suitable for a necromancer. Joe Elm deeply loved large blades.

Ma Fei and Yang Xiangdi also wore expressions of joy on their faces, clearly having gained quite a bit as well.

"Brother Cannon, thanks to you we were able to clear the dungeon this time, thank you!" Wang Tiezhu smiled heartily at Joe Elm, then his tone changed instantly, "But! If I meet you in the Battle Competition, I won't hold back!"

"You're welcome, same here," Joe Elm nodded.

"Alright, Zhongguancun College of Arts and Sciences, I've remembered it!"

Wang Tiezhu led the people from Cangqiong Academy and turned to leave the dungeon.

"Let's go back to school and sign up. I've leveled up again, and I can't wait to make a splash at the Battle Competition!" Ma Fei rubbed his fists (like a fly rubbing its hands), looking eager to try.

Having cleared the Silent Town dungeon, all four of them had earned the qualifications to sign up for the Battle Competition.

"Tch! Overconfident man, so cringey! The Battle Competition is full of seniors in their third and fourth years, the real high-level geniuses!" Zhao Ziyue sneered at Ma Fei's words.

"So what if they're high-level?" Ma Fei looked arrogant, "For me, it's just a few more sword strikes."

Zhao Ziyue put her hand on her forehead, opened the light gate, and left the dungeon, leaving a single sentence behind.

"Your straight-man chuunibyou is incurable."

Ma Fei looked confused, "Wait! Explain to me what those words 'overconfident man' mean first?"

Unfortunately, Zhao Ziyue had already left the dungeon and couldn't hear his question.

"Come, come, I'll explain it to you."

Yang Xiangdi stood up with great enthusiasm.

"Overconfident man means you're the most trustworthy man under heaven; cringey is praising you for having the clearest mind in the afternoon; straight man with the will of steel is praising you for being a man with an iron will who bravely moves forward! Understand?"

The more Ma Fei listened, the more his eyes shone.

"I get it! So Zhao Ziyue is just thin-skinned and is praising me in a roundabout way! Good brother, you really know a lot!" Ma Fei excitedly hugged Yang Xiangdi.

"It's nothing, I just know a little." Yang Xiangdi looked elated.

Joe Elm sneered at this scene. Yang Xiangdi was clearly pretending to know what he was talking about.

What he described wasn't what 'overconfident man' meant at all. 'Overconfident man', as the name suggests, refers to a man who has many credit cards in ordinary banks.

Zhao Ziyue was clearly insinuating that Ma Fei had nothing but money, and these two were still happily grinning.

Ah! He was clearly super intelligent and exceptionally clever. How did he become brothers with these two idiots?

He hoped that his IQ wouldn't be lowered by them over time.

"Cough cough! Cough cough cough!"

Zhang Nianyu coughed violently, then smiled wryly.

"What my father said before he died was actually true. You really aren't from this world."

Joe Elm's expression was somewhat complicated. He sighed softly.

"Zhang Nianyu, if you can still remember, offer three sticks of incense to your father. He was a decent man in life."

The words that Zhang Erhe had brought him were the first to make him doubt his understanding of the Reverse World.

Were the Reverse World and the dungeons in the tower really just constructed from code?

With complicated thoughts, Joe Elm opened the light gate and left Silent Town.

What he didn't know was that a middle-aged man with thinning hair was standing in front of the tower waiting for him with his arms crossed.

And standing next to this middle-aged man was Qiu Xin, looking shy.

"Brother Ba~ As long as you help me vent this anger, I'll find you a few little sisters tonight, and we'll get you everything: Pop Rocks, jelly, ice cubes~"

Qiu Xin breathed softly, the hot air making Li Ba's heart itch.

"Hehehe! Xin'er, don't worry! A mid-level from a no-name university is nothing for me to handle! Brother Ba doesn't even put him in my eyes!"

Li Ba patted his chest, looking confident.

If it were a student from a prestigious university, he might not dare to act recklessly.

After all, great schools are more likely to produce great students. This is the famous "great schools produce great dicks" law.

But Zhongguancun College of Arts and Sciences sounded like a no-name university. What did he, Li Ba, have to fear?

Just as Joe Elm and the others walked out of the dungeon, Li Ba directly blocked their path.

"Are you the one called Joe Cannon?" Li Ba craned his neck, "You're pretty cocky!"

"Who are you?" Joe Elm was confused. Where did this idiot come from?

"I am Li Ba, a level 31 high-level swordsman! You can also call me Brother Ba!"

Li Ba narrowed his eyes, a dangerous light flashing within them.

"I heard you were the one who bullied Qiu Xin?"

"Huh?"

Joe Elm turned his head and saw Qiu Xin with a spiteful expression. He finally understood what was happening. It was a simp summon.

Joe Elm had a bit of a headache. This was why he didn't want to offend women. It was too troublesome.

"I'll give you two choices now:

1. Kneel down and apologize to Qiu Xin!

2. I'll break your legs and make you apologize in front of Qiu Xin on your knees.

Choose!" Li Ba crossed his arms and sneered in a chuuni way.

Joe Elm suddenly missed Gu Su. Even though he was a simp, at least Gu Su was more sane than the Li Ba in front of him.

This Li Ba didn't look like he had all his marbles.

Far away, Gu Su, who was in class at Huaqing Academy, suddenly sneezed.

He scratched his head in confusion.

"Which beauty is thinking of me? Could it be Rongrong?"
