Chapter 1998 - 1991: Can You Curse Me Again?
"He...he really roasted the egg of the Demon Breath Beast!"
It wasn’t until Zhang Menglong cracked open the smoking egg and started eating that the others finally believed that Zhang Menglong wasn’t joking. He truly didn’t care about these Demon Breath Beast eggs! Even if he ate them, what of it? He could always get more!
As long as the task isn’t completed, the Demon Breath Beasts aren’t extinct, and Zhang Menglong can have as many Demon Breath Beast eggs as he wants without any pressure. Of course, such actions somewhat resemble mass extinction of a race.
"Why don’t I give it a try too?"
Upon accepting Zhang Menglong’s unbelievably high item drop rate, Ying Zheng finally adjusted his mindset. Whether it’s Supreme Coins or Supreme Crystals, or even this kind of Demon Breath Beast egg, anything that can drop in this world probably holds little value for Zhang Menglong.
What kind of things are valuable? Those that are hard to get and rare, that’s what is truly rare. The most abundant thing in this world is Warcraft, so for Zhang Menglong, these items if spoiled or not, don’t matter at all!
"Hmm, the taste is actually pretty good?" Ying Zheng took a bite, his eyes lighting up. Having been in this world for so long, accustomed to thriftiness, he’d never tasted something so delicious!
With Ying Zheng taking the lead, the other martial artists didn’t hold back, and they soon followed suit, devouring all the Warcraft meat and eggs Zhang Menglong had dropped. This was the first time they had indulged so extravagantly.
"Let’s go, continue!"
After feasting, Ying Zheng led them deeper into the Wind Whisper Plains. This area was still considered the outskirts of the plains, and the small group of Demon Breath Beasts encountered was not a large population. With their lineup, they could handle a group of Demon Breath Beasts two or three times bigger.
Sure enough, as they ventured deeper, the number of Warcraft increased, not just Demon Breath Beasts but also many other lone Warcraft, all dealt with by Zhang Menglong and Ying Zheng.
The number of Warcraft killed by the two was about the same, but their gains were worlds apart.
Ying Zheng killed 27 various Warcraft, but only received less than 1000 Supreme Coins and two blue bottles. In contrast, Zhang Menglong made a huge profit, gaining 24 Supreme Crystals and a pile of various Warcraft parts, even dropping a weapon!
The weapon dropped from a king-level Warcraft resembling a monkey. It was a weapon similar to the Square Sky Halberd, made of material Zhang Menglong had never seen, with hardness and grade far beyond any weapon he had seen in the God Race world.
"This is a Supreme Weapon!" Ying Zheng gazed at the Square Sky Halberd with envy. "I heard such things randomly appear on some Warcraft, and their drop rate is even lower than Supreme Crystals! I didn’t expect you to encounter it, Brother Menglong!"
Ying Zheng had never used a Supreme Weapon but had heard of its power. It could help martial artists defeat opponents ten times stronger than themselves!
Once, a martial artist was surrounded by a group of Warcraft, his strength roughly at 100 times the peak of Dao Realm, surrounded by king-level Warcraft—a certain death scenario. But after desperately killing a Warcraft, he luckily dropped a Supreme Weapon!
With this Supreme Weapon, he broke through the group of king-level Warcraft. It’s said that he eventually amassed 1 billion Supreme Coins and encountered a supreme demon beast blockade on his way to the light pillar.
Relying on that Supreme Weapon, he forcefully repelled the supreme demon beast, though injured, successfully entered the light pillar and reached the Supreme World, which is no secret in the world.
But few obtain such Supreme Weapons; each appearance sparks a bloody uproar because if you kill the holder, it will drop.
"Sounds impressive," Zhang Menglong, after hearing Ying Zheng’s introduction, attempted to wave it around, even taking out a Dao weapon to clash with the Square Sky Halberd.
Sure enough, with a crisp sound, the Dao weapon shattered, while the Supreme Weapon remained unscathed.
"Not bad at all," Zhang Menglong, already fond of these long weapons for being not only imposing but also extremely powerful, especially when hunting Warcraft.
"If only I had half your luck!" Ying Zheng said enviously to Zhang Menglong.
"Don’t dream, next Warcraft, aside from Supreme Coins, don’t expect anything to drop!" Zhang Menglong couldn’t help but want to assist Ying Zheng with his pitiful look.
"You..." Ying Zheng’s expression was evidently angry. He was merely speaking; no need to curse him, right? Still, thus far, he’s been considerate to Zhang Menglong.
Zhang Menglong didn’t explain because the premise of Management Studies working is not explaining this power, or else Management Studies fails. He could see Ying Zheng wasn’t happy but couldn’t address it directly.
At this point, a lord-level Warcraft appeared, posing no threat to Ying Zheng, allowing him to vent his resentment on it.
With a single strike, Ying Zheng sliced the Warcraft into two with his self-enhanced Tai’a Sword.
A mere lord-level Warcraft, given the gap in strength with Ying Zheng, it was almost impossible for anything to drop. In this world, if you kill beyond your level, drop rates rise, and for slaying much weaker Warcraft, drop rates decrease drastically.
From a lord-level Warcraft, at most, Ying Zheng could gain only dozens of Supreme Coins.
But unexpectedly, the Warcraft emitted a golden glow!
Ying Zheng made a great haul!
"200 Supreme Coins! This is nearly the limit for this lord-level Warcraft!"
"Supreme Crystal, it dropped a Supreme Crystal! And body parts!"
Though incomparable to Zhang Menglong’s way of even dropping underwear, killing this Warcraft, Ying Zheng harvested as much as he dared not believe before, especially the valuable Supreme Crystal!
Until now, Ying Zheng had never been this lucky. He absolutely didn’t believe it was sheer luck this time; even for such a drop, five or six items would be quite exceptional, and the only difference this time was before killing this Warcraft, Zhang Menglong had cursed him!
Zhang Menglong said he’d absolutely drop nothing other than Supreme Coins from killing Warcraft.
But the result was entirely contrary to his words. Was it just luck suddenly skyrocketing and slapping Zhang Menglong’s face?
No!
He sensed foul play! It’s definitely not that simple!
"Brother Menglong," after gathering his gains, Ying Zheng approached Zhang Menglong, "can you curse me again?"
