Chapter 363: 363, [The Son of Fortune, Terrifying as This] (Requesting Monthly Tickets!)
Lu Xun remembers very clearly that after that battle, the forum for “Heavenly Dust” exploded with activity.
After all, Mo Yurou had once topped the NPC popularity charts as a charming mature woman—her popularity was no joke.
And don’t take NPCs in the game lightly. After all, “Heavenly Dust” was so realistic that it was like the real world.
Just imagine, even cardboard cutouts could blow up the popularity charts, attracting countless fans. So, you can’t begin to imagine the NPCs in “Heavenly Dust”.
At that time, Mo Yurou’s fall even ignited the fighting spirit of countless players.
At that moment, the nerdish soul of countless goofy players started burning. They realized they weren’t just killing monsters, they were fighting for the virtual characters they loved!
Kill these bastards!
Let’s go for it!
Lu Xun shook his head gently, pulling his thoughts back from their wanderings.
The plot in “Heavenly Dust” had already moved in an unknown direction under the influence of his dazzling butterfly wings.
He didn’t know what the future held for this bewitching mature woman in front of him.
Overthinking wouldn’t help.
At this moment, Mo Yurou was leading the way upfront, with Lu Xun and others following her, landing in front of an ancient thousand-year-old tree.
This was a Fire Dragon Tree. Its branches resembled a dragon, and its leaves looked like flames.
The Fire Dragon Tree was known for its rapid growth. This tree, which had been around for thousands of years, was astonishingly huge and eye-catching.
Cai Jiangjiang and the others looked up at the giant tree, thinking in their hearts, “Is this the entrance to the ancient relic?”
Of course, it wasn’t.
Lu Xun knew very well that the crooked tree next to this Fire Dragon Tree was the entrance to the large altar left behind from the ancient times.
The player who had originally discovered this altar by sheer luck was actually first attracted by the Fire Dragon Tree.
This player claimed to be a martial arts successor in real life and a master of family martial arts. When he was a teenager, his grandfather would often instruct him to go ram trees on the mountain to train.
He rammed from the age of 13 to 18, ramming a tree every morning. He uprooted one tree every year, each new tree being thicker than the last.
Eventually… he was arrested for destroying ancient trees.
After being released, he chanced upon the Fire Dragon Tree while playing “Heavenly Dust.” Out of habit, he wanted to ram the tree.
This tree was so large that it would be a waste not to ram it a few times.
He took off his coat, revealing his robust shoulders and arms, and charged at the giant tree with a wild ram.
Fire Dragon Trees were infamously large and tough. Even the average Body Refinement cultivator couldn’t handle it.
Destroying such a thing sometimes required a sudden force.
This body refinement player had overdone it a bit. Under the backlash, he rolled around on the ground a few times, bumping his head on the crooked tree next to him and then being sucked into the large altar!
Considering the condition of the altar at that time, the entrance restriction had long been broken, and it did not stop this goofy player who was not yet level 40.
The cause was so magical that people didn’t know where to start criticizing.
Specifically, the altars discovered by goofy players were basically discovered in less than proper contexts.
Mo Yurou stood under the Fire Dragon Tree, and pointed at the unimpressive crooked tree next door, “Uncle Lu, that’s the entrance to this ancient relic.”
Lu Yingdi nodded, his face showing a moment of “genuine” surprise, and then quickly regaining his calm.
He asked curiously, “Master Mo, I’m a bit curious, how did your sect discover this relic?”
Mo Yurou’s face looked a little awkward, “Uncle Lu, about that…it’s a bit awkward to say, let’s just forget it.”
Lu Xun looked at her, “Does it have anything to do with Jiang Nan’an, the disciple of the Qingtian Sect Master?”
Mo Yurou nodded, she did not deny this.
“Uncle Lu, have you heard of my young student Jiang?” She asked.
Lu Xun laughed, “I’ve heard quite a few rumors about him.”
Jiang Nan’an, male, the closed-door disciple of the Qingtian Sect Master, and one of the world protagonists in the Heavenly Dust Continent.
Among the various world protagonists in “Heavenly Dust”, he was the one most frequently lampooned.
The reason is that his name unconsciously reminds people of a poem: “The spring breeze turns the south bank of the river green again.”
The name “Spring Breeze” is a popular choice among players when creating their character’s nickname…
Thus, there are many ridiculous players with ‘Spring Breeze’ in their names.
Lu Xun didn’t seem to care much about this. He looked up to the sky and sighed inwardly, “Green is a very pure color, it’s love that’s dirty.”
After his sigh, he turned to Mo Yurou and asked, “Master Mo, is Jiang Nan’an not here?”
He was quite interested in this ‘World Protagonist’.
Mo Yurou shook her head and explained, “Jiang is in the Uncold Forest. The Sect Master assigned him to lead us in exploring this relic. However, due to a minor mishap in the past few days, he’s currently in secluded meditation.”
“Oh? Master Mo, could you please elaborate?” Lu Xun asked.
Mo Yurou thought for a moment and felt there were no secrets to hide. Everyone from the Qingtian Sect knew about it, so she explained:
“A few days ago, Jiang was fishing in the Warm Lake at the center of the Uncold Forest and he…ahem, stumbled and sank to the bottom, where he fortuitously found the Warm Jade Pearl. He is currently refining it.”
On hearing this, Lu Xun’s mouth twitched slightly, and he thought to himself, “Just as I expected.”
The ‘World Protagonists’ in ‘Heavenly Dust’ each have their unique characteristics. For example, Little Chan was born with a Natural Sword Embryo and was destined to be a Sword Path Leader.
Ye Sui’an was evenly strong, with Enlightenment 9, Swordsmanship Aptitude 9, and Charisma 9, popularly known as ‘999 Cold Relief’.
Xiao Ran was a fierce fighter, a female version of the bold King Kong. Her great strength and dual axes were ideal for leading charges in great battles.
As for Jiang Nan’an, despite the name being easy to make fun of, this guy took advantage of everything!
This guy was the child of luck!
With an average appearance, average talents, average intelligence… everything about him seemed average.
The only thing that stood out was his absurd luck.
The legendary “Luck 10?…
How did the saying go? ‘God gives you well’ – describing those with natural advantages, like a great voice or dexterous hands. These people were all lucky, God has a plan for you, takes extra care of you.
But Jiang Nan’an was different. He wasn’t just given a meal by God, but was spoon-fed by him.
With the maximum luck attribute, he never stopped encountering fortuitous events.
If this place was truly a relic of ancient times, Lu Xun would not hesitate to follow him, just stay behind him and pick up the treasures that drop.
Unfortunately, this is a Foreign Race Altar left over from the Ancient Times, so there should be no treasures here.
However, Jiang Nan’an accidentally stumbled upon this place,
This made Lu Xun raise an eyebrow.
“Could there really be some treasure inside?” he wondered.
Since Jiang Nan’an was the leader assigned by the Qingtian Sect, and he was still refining the pearl, Lu Xun and the others would have to wait until he came out before they could explore inside together.
Mo Yurou spoke politely, “On the contrary, having Uncle Lu wait here and not doing anything is quite rude.”
Lu Xun waved off her concern and said nonchalantly, “It doesn’t matter.”
Whatever you wait, it’s not a big deal.
It’s not like I want to mooch off his “Luck 10”, I, Lu Xun, just wanted to make friends.
He glanced at the crooked tree nearby, not intending to get close to it.
Because that was said to be the entrance to the altar, and for Lu Xun, all restrictions were null and void.
If he approached the entrance, the altar would envelop him in and suck him inside.
Thinking this, he turned his sight back to his Sword-Serving Child.
Bringing his Grunts here from afar, Lu Xun had his own plans.
He had a daring idea and would try it when the time came.
“I wonder if it’s feasible…” He thought to himself.
“If it works, in the near future, it might make life much more difficult for the Foreign Races.”
