Angelina was all excited. "It burst, it burst! Oh my god, it’s the first time I’m seeing this giant sword, and it’s a Diamond-grade weapon! We’re going to be rich now."
Jiang Chen looked at Angelina’s excited expression and laughed. "You’ll have plenty of chances in the future. Who knows, you might get rich by following me too!"
"Yeah, you’re amazing! I often go out with Beatrice to kill small monsters and we burst equipment, but never Diamond equipment. Maybe I can become a rich woman in the future!"
Jiang Chen laughed.
This woman has really fallen into a money pit.
"How much do you think this Diamond Weapon will sell for?"
"Probably several tens of millions!"
Angelina was shocked. "That expensive?"
Jiang Chen nodded. "Yeah, this is a Diamond-grade weapon; they’re very hard to burst out. Warriors and Knights all desperately need this sword. I estimate it’s worth more, not less."
"So if we go by thirty percent, will I get over ten million?"
Jiang Chen silently nodded.
Angelina counted on her fingers. "One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, hundred thousand, million, ten million... Oh my god, eight figures! That’s more than I’ve earned in several years!"
Angelina excitedly hugged Jiang Chen’s face and gave him a kiss.
Jiang Chen wiped his face. "Could you not smear saliva on my face, please? Although you’re pretty, I still have my dignity."
The two looked at each other.
Angelina bowed her head. "Sorry, I got too excited just now."
"No problem. Just don’t leave saliva on my face next time."
Angelina: (⊙o⊙)...
Jiang Chen silently put the sword away and said, "I plan to keep this sword for a friend, but don’t worry, I’ll make sure he pays you, not a cent less."
"Actually, it’s not necessary. If it’s for your friend, I don’t need to take any money."
Jiang Chen laughed. "I have a lot of friends. You might end up working for free later on."
"That’s okay too. You won’t treat me unfairly, will you?"
Jiang Chen nodded.
The two walked out of the King’s Crown Copy.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen thought of a problem. If this woman joins the team, wouldn’t that mean splitting the experience? Maybe it’s better not to team up. He could just kick her out, solo until he found the boss, and then find Angelina again.
Yeah, this idea is really nice.
Jiang Chen looked at Angelina, at her innocent smile.
Damn...
Summoning her when needed and dismissing her when not... that seems a bit much. When I need her, she’s my person; when I don’t, she belongs to someone else.
Ah well... splitting the experience it is. After all, I was the one who found her. It just means leveling will be a bit slower, that’s all.
Besides, after reaching the First-stage, there weren’t many Copies to farm anymore. Before the First-stage, there were many Copies: level 20 Copies, level 30 Copies, level 40 Copies.
But after reaching the First-stage, there were no more Copies left. Trying to gather a complete Set was extremely difficult. Having Angelina with him could save quite a bit of time.
A man has to take care of his own woman, no matter what.
Angelina asked, "Where are we going now?"
"I’ll take you leveling. Just follow me from now on. When equipment bursts, you pick it up and then go sell it."
"Aren’t you supposed to pick up the equipment?"
"I don’t have time to pick up equipment. You can pick it up. Just give me my share of the money later."
"But I don’t know the prices."
"No problem, I’ll tell you. If that doesn’t work, you can sell directly to the Alliance Guild."
"I’ve heard that selling to the Alliance Guild means a big loss, at least one-third less. It’s better to set up a stall and sell it myself. The Alliance Guild can forget about making a single dime off me!"
Jiang Chen laughed. This woman...
At the Demonic Purple Tin Snake farming spot, Jiang Chen continued to slay monsters.
As soon as a Demonic Purple Tin Snake spawned, Jiang Chen killed it. Whether Angelina was there or not made no difference to his killing speed, except now the experience gained was more than halved.
Jiang Chen had a headache. This isn’t going to work. I don’t know if we can reach level 30 in a few days at this rate.
Jiang Chen finally witnessed Angelina’s terrifying luck. He had farmed the Demonic Purple Tin Snake countless times before but had never gotten even a common item, not even a single hair.
But after teaming up with Angelina, common items actually burst.
It seemed like common gear would drop from almost every few dozen Demonic Purple Tin Snakes.
The probability was quite good.
"More gear has burst!"
Angelina excitedly ran over and stored the common gear in her Space. This common gear wouldn’t sell for much, just a few thousand or so.
But the quantity was impressive. As they stayed there, with Jiang Chen continuously farming monsters and Angelina watching her experience bar rise, she was beside herself with excitement.
The leveling speed was truly fast.
Jiang Chen, however, was somewhat unlucky. Teaming up meant sharing experience with Angelina, so his leveling speed had slowed down significantly. Fortunately, this place was good for farming monsters—six every ten minutes. The speed was still pretty fast.
Angelina said excitedly, "Jiang Chen, my experience is shooting up!"
"How did you usually level up?"
"I teamed up with Beatrice and the others. You know I’m a Ritualist. To level up, I have to rely on teammates since I can’t fight," Angelina said with an aggrieved look.
"The five of us would share the experience equally. Without them, it would have been very hard for me to reach level 30. It took me several years after I left school!"
Jiang Chen asked, "So how did you get Divine Blessing?"
"It’s like I just went to sleep, and when I woke up, I had it. It was very strange."
Damn it... What does she mean she just woke up with it? I suspect she’s just making things up...
Wait a minute, she just woke up with it? Maybe we should sleep together and see if I can awaken Divine Blessing. Yeah, that’s a great idea. It’s definitely not because she’s beautiful; I just want Divine Blessing.
Jiang Chen gazed at Angelina from head to toe. The woman was actually quite stunning, on par with Jiang Qiu’s teammates—tall and unmistakably a well-endowed beauty.
Angelina laughed. "Do you want to sleep with me?"
Jiang Chen: (⊙o⊙)...
Damn, she can tell? Is she psychic or something? Jiang Chen seriously suspected this woman possessed the Mind Reading Technique.
Jiang Chen gave an awkward smile. "You’re overthinking it. Am I that kind of person?"
"You are."
...
"Really, I’m not. I could swear to All Gods."
"You want to deceive All Gods? I can see it in your eyes. You want to sleep together and get Divine Blessing, right?"
Jiang Chen was puzzled. "How could you tell?"
"Other people have had the same idea."
"Could it be..."
"No. I’ve always slept with Sister Tao. She’s a very good person and always protected me. It’s a pity she’s gone now."
Jiang Chen remained silent. This Sister Tao was clearly no ordinary person.
Jiang Chen thought it over. Why would she choose to team up with me? Could this be Tao Ruisi’s deliberate arrangement? Maybe she had been displeased with Beatrice and the others from the start, so she sought out a strong partner to get rid of them.
Once Angelina’s party skills became known, who knew how many guilds would go mad, how many Legions would fight for her? Divine Blessing was a heaven-defying Skill.
Jiang Chen nodded. "No worries. I’ll look after you from now on."
"Yes, I believe you."
"Why do you trust me so much?"
"You’re very handsome."
These damned good looks of mine... If I hadn’t awakened my class, I might be a top gigolo in some hotel by now. It would be a waste of these looks not to be one.
Angelina continued, "You’re different from others."
"How am I different?"
"Your smile is very sincere."
