Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

Chapter 314 Shovel

Carmen had initially believed Xu Feng was going to reprimand her for letting go of a golden opportunity to gain free manpower.

Yet not only did Xu Feng not get angry, he was even supportive of her decision.

And she could tell he meant his words and wasn't saying it to deceive her either.

Sure, Xu Feng was a liar on occasion, but when it involved important things like this, he was stern and serious.

Just like the time when he said he would let the Reaver Guild go as long as she wanted, he truly did it before they left for Paradise Plains.

A slight smile appeared on her face as she chased after Xu Feng and questioned, "Are you not curious as to why I refused them?"

"Not at all," Xu Feng coolly responded.

"If you wish to tell me, then you will do so even if I didn't ask. There's no need to inquire like you do constantly." He added, teasing her in the process for being a questionnaire lately.

Pouting, Carmen started giving him some light fisting in his back.

"Hmph, who told you to be so knowledgeable all the time, Guild Leader. You're like an encyclopedia, so isn't it dumb to not use you all the time to clear up my doubts?" She defended.

Nodding, Xu Feng simply smiled bitterly. If he wasn't knowledgeable in most things, then he had truly wasted his life for being a member of the upper echelon in the past.

So many resources and information were accessible to him, but he didn't take advantage of them? Then he might as well just bang his head and end his life.

Knowledge was power!

This statement stands true no matter where and when.

Sometime later, the duo officially entered the zone with no guards in sight.

Paradise Plains' official guards might not actively hunt for monsters, but they will still clear the perimeter to ensure no monsters are near a certain fixed proximity of the city.

This was applicable to most cities, unlike Star Falls City, where manpower was extremely limited.

Not to mention, even monsters despised the environment of the city outside and migrated elsewhere, leaving only a pitiful few who couldn't migrate.

"Stick close to me from now on," Xu Feng warned.

"Okay…"

Having said that, Xu Feng remained still, confusing Carmen in the process.

"Why aren't we moving, Guild Leader?" She questioned.

"How can I move when you wrap your arms around my chest?" Xu Feng smiled bitterly.

"Eh, but you said to stick close to you?" Carmen explained, "By wrapping around you, I can stick close to you and follow the instructions precisely."

If this was done by anyone, then Xu Feng might have believed them to be a klutz, but Carmen?

No way in hell!

"Are you trying to do this for some intimacy and afraid that I'm actually holding a grudge over your refusal to accept those NPCs?" Xu Feng sighed and asked softly.

"Yes," Carmen replied sheepishly. "I've seen romance movies and most female leads do this to tempt the male lead into forgiving them."

Nearly in disbelief, Xu Feng gently moved her hands off him and turned to her. "Listen, this isn't some rom-com movie, and no. I don't hold grudges in something like that. So let's not stall any longer and move on with our journey, yeah?"

"You promised?" Carmen raised an eyebrow, seemingly skeptical of him.

"I swear to heaven if I renege on it, may Zhao Kai be struck by numerous lightning bolts!" Xu Feng swore instantly.

"Who's Zhao Kai?"

"Don't worry about it."

"Phew, now I can relax." She clasped her hands in joy and continued, "But where exactly are we going for the infinite glitch exp? My skills are limited since I'm still Tier 0."

"You'll know when we arrive, but for now, just stay close to me. I don't want you alerting monsters to our direction." Xu Feng explained and proceeded to walk on a certain pathing.

To prepare for the Paradise Plains, he made many preparations, including methods to maximize his trip this time.

The glitch exp was one of the objectives this time in which he would skyrocket his levels.

How pathetic would it be if he was still below average in terms of level despite his abundant knowledge?

Time slowly passed by, and Xu Feng stopped at a plain soft soil ground, with nothing but some greenery trees, grasses, etc around the area.

Despite its unusual spot, Carmen silently gazed at Xu Feng, who proceeded to take out a piece of equipment: a shovel.

Stunned, Carmen had to rub her eyes twice before confirming that Xu Feng was actually digging at the soft soil beneath the ground.

'It can't be digging up the soil, is the glitch exp, right?' Carmen inwardly exclaimed, feeling perplexed by the matter.

Watching the usually dignified Xu Feng, holding a shovel and digging the soil like some kind of farmer, somehow became quite a comical sight.

"Pfft," Carmen had to cover her mouth to prevent herself from laughing.

However, efforts were proved fruitless, given Xu Feng could hear her easily.

"Laugh all you want, but I bet you'll be shocked once you see the result." Xu Feng commented, not a bit bothered by her laughter. After all, this method was discovered by a maniac, and players started laughing and teasing them, only to end up regretting it dearly.

By the time it was discovered that the so-called maniac's level had risen to an unimaginable rate, players finally realized the maniac was actually a genius who managed to discover a loophole or jailbreak in a sense.

The action was not deemed cheating by the system, meaning it was allowed and applicable. Except, it was a bit too late, given the genius had long reaped most of the experience points, leaving only a pitiful amount to those who tried it later on.

As for why Xu Feng remembered this vividly?

He was one of those who had laughed at the maniac and attempted it later on.

'Nothing is ever simple in the Divine World. So what if the actions look humiliating? If the rewards are great, screw their opinions.' Xu Feng sneered inwardly, digging up a storm until a small pit was created.
