Chapter 98 – This girl is really about to take off "Little Lin, if we sell this equipment, it should fetch a lot of money, right?" Ren Lan hugged the equipment, her excitement giving way to unease. Although she hadn't been playing the game for long, she knew that the drop rate for equipment in "Tale of Immortal" was very low, making the prices quite high. "The other two pieces of armor aren't expensive, maybe one or two thousand, but the gloves could go for a hundred to eighty thousand, and the Fire Fist skill around fifty thousand. When do you plan to settle the bill?" Lin Jichen quoted the prices expertly, rubbing his hands together as if asking for money. Ren Lan's heart pounded at the mention of these prices, and she shyly said, "I don't have that much money. How about... paying in kind?" Lin Jichen wasn't naive; he knew her too well to fall for that. If he agreed, he'd be in for a beating in no time. He had experienced such baiting tactics many times in his previous life. "Forget it, I've sworn off such things," Lin Jichen replied without hesitation. "Hmph, smart move." Ren Lan snorted, looking down at the equipment in her hands, seemingly making a big decision. She handed the gloves and skill book back to Lin Jichen. "I'll just take these two. You can sell the gloves and book; they're too expensive." Lin Jichen didn't reach out to take them, laughing, "Just keep them. They were meant for you. If I wanted to sell them, I would have done so already." "But these are worth a couple of hundred thousand. If we don't sell them now, they might depreciate as more equipment becomes available," Ren Lan suggested. "True, but the value of these two items can't be measured in money. If you get stronger sooner, you can find even better equipment for me. This is just an early investment. Just use them," Lin Jichen said. "I'm not good at games and have no talent. Investing in me is a waste. No, no, you should find someone else," Ren Lan insisted. "Who said you have no talent? Isn't the Immovable King a talent?" Lin Jichen rolled his eyes, "Please don't confuse computer games with this one. I'm sure you'll become a top player in this game." "Really?" Ren Lan was half-convinced. Lin Jichen gave a resigned smile. He knew her too well. "Do you even know where Demon Perch Lake is?" Lin Jichen teased. "Oh right, should I go back and ask the elder?" Lin Jichen rolled his eyes, "Finding Demon Perch Lake is part of your task. If you ask, they'll think you're an idiot." "But I don't know where it is. The map is so big. That old man is just messing with me. I'll go back and beat him up!" Ren Lan fumed. "With your Qi Refining level, he could crush you with one finger. In this game, you must treat sect elders with respect, as if they were real people. Don't think of them as just game data," Lin Jichen seriously corrected her. He was afraid she would act like those clueless players who cursed at elders or didn't follow sect rules. Even if an elder took a liking to them, their behavior and character would make them miss out on great opportunities. "Is it necessary? It's just a game," Ren Lan couldn't understand, not being someone who had been reborn like Lin Jichen. Lin Jichen wasn't in a hurry. He patiently explained, "This game is very realistic. Your attitude towards NPCs affects their favorability towards you. High favorability makes it easier to get unique tasks. Trust me and do as I say." "Alright, I get it. I promise I won't mess around," Ren Lan said, seeing Lin Jichen's serious expression. Little Lin wouldn't lie to her. "Of course, this only applies to friendly NPCs. For those with strange or malicious intentions, as long as you have the strength, feel free to beat them up." "Understood, sir!" Ren Lan answered playfully. "Let's go. I know where Demon Perch Lake is." Lin Jichen walked ahead, calling back to her, "Hop on." "What?" "Get on my back. I'll fly us there." Ren Lan hesitantly climbed onto Lin Jichen's back. Then, they soared into the sky, and she screamed in excitement. Lin Jichen thought she would be scared at first, but he had underestimated this crazy girl.
