I Ended the God at Level 1

32: Wang Dapao, strange appetiteLi Si rushed to the Mingyue Village gate using Ghostly Swift Steps.

At this moment, a system prompt suddenly popped up.

“Ding!”

“Two blue pieces of equipment have finished bidding. After deducting a 5% handling fee, the remaining 35,878 RMB has been deposited into your character account. Current character account balance: 1,240,000,000.”

It took fifteen minutes.

The auction was complete.

“Not bad.”

Perhaps because the Silverlight Set sold for the exorbitant price of 780,000, a price of 30,000 or 50,000 no longer excited Li Si too much. It was like a gold digger who had been to Sea City First Grade and could no longer look down on ordinary houses.

“No! No!”

Li Si immediately stopped himself from thinking like that. 35,000 RMB was already a lot; his parents could only save that amount after a year of hard work.

Before long, he arrived at the blacksmith shop.

Pushing the door open, Li Si went straight to Wang Shidao, asking for blueprints, stating he needed to level up to LV3.

Wang Shidao was overjoyed and quickly retrieved the design blueprints according to Li Si’s requirements: low level, high quality.

With three armor blueprints in hand, Li Si decisively crushed them to learn.

“Ding!”

“Congratulations! You have learned—Forging Blueprint: mingyue garment (Purple).”

“Congratulations! You have learned—Forging Blueprint: Mingyue Pants (Purple).”

“Congratulations! You have learned—Forging Blueprint: Mingyue Boots (Purple).”

Purple quality.

Not bad.

After a simple two-sentence evaluation, Li Si walked to the forging table and released his skill to communicate with the Heavenly Fire.

“Boom!”

A brilliant flame appeared out of thin air, melting the materials.

“Ding!”

“Base success rate for this forging: 35%.”

“7 points of Luck add an additional 7% success rate.”

“Final success rate for this forging: 42%.”

“That’s powerful.”

The success rate was almost half.

Li Si mindlessly melted, almost swinging the forging hammer in full circles. Clang, clang, clang… Sparks flew, glittering in the forging room.

“Ding!”

“This forging was successful.”

“This forging failed.”

“This forging was successful.”

System prompts continuously refreshed, and his sub-profession proficiency skyrocketed.

Not far away, Wang Shidao’s mouth curved upwards wildly.

Having such a disciple, he had no regrets in this life.

At the same time, in the equipment shops of the ten thousand Novice Villages in Xia Kingdom, a batch of armor named ”Mingyue” began to be put on shelves. Players who had just entered the game could choose one piece for free.

“Holy cow, this game is awesome! Not only does it not require time cards, but it also gives purple equipment upon logging in.” The new players who had just entered the game burst into laughter.

Amidst the laughter of the new players, wisps of energy fluctuations spread, crossing thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, converging into Wang Shidao’s glabella.

“Is this the Power of Faith?”

Wang Shidao closed his eyes and felt it for a moment. When he opened his eyes again, golden flames suddenly ignited in his pupils. The golden flames were faint and tiny, just a mere wisp; unless one looked closely at his eyes, the existence of the golden flames could not be detected.

Time was running out; his plan needed to be put on the agenda.

......

While Li Si was engrossed in forging.

Inside Black Flame Valley.

Qian Duoduo’s face suddenly lit up with surprise: “What did you just say? You triggered a main quest?”

A minute ago, Qian Duoduo was lying on a chair, eating watermelon, and watching his power-leveling team slay monsters.

Just as he was enjoying himself, a player with a full beard rushed out from the depths of Black Flame Valley, ran up to Qian Duoduo, and said that he had triggered a main quest.

That led to the current scene.

“That’s right.”

The bearded player nodded solemnly.

“Tell me, what do you want from me?” Qian Duoduo bit into his watermelon, put away his chair, and looked directly at the bearded player.

“A stable job.” The bearded man’s expression was incredibly sincere.

“No problem. Tell me your ID, level, profession, and talent. I will decide your salary based on your attributes,” Qian Duoduo said, counting on his fingers.

“Thank you, Boss!!”

The bearded man was extremely excited upon hearing this.

He quickly displayed his information panel in front of Qian Duoduo.

“....Holy cow....You....”

Qian Duoduo was dumbfounded, pointing at Wang Dapao’s attribute panel, patting Wang Dapao’s shoulder, and saying: “Dapao, starting today, you are my first subordinate, first power-leveler, first bodyguard, and Vice President of the Way of Feet.”

“Huh? Me.... become Vice President?”

Wang Dapao was stunned upon hearing this. He couldn’t read a single character. Asking him to be a Vice President, was that not a joke?

“Food and accommodation included, monthly salary of fifty thousand!”

“I’ll do it!!”

With a monthly salary of fifty thousand, and food and accommodation included, Wang Dapao instantly got excited. Wasn’t it just a Vice President? If other players could do it, he could too.

“By the way, where did you get your second talent? Did you clear the treasure map?” Dongshan Divine Body, from its name, it was not difficult to deduce that this talent originated from Dongshan Lake, the fifth-ranked treasure map in Mingyue Village.

“I was lucky enough to clear one, Boss truly has discerning eyes!” With the change in identity, Wang Dapao immediately entered work mode, speaking in a flattering manner.

“Work hard, follow me, I can’t promise riches and honor, but you’ll definitely never worry about food and drink!”

“I’ll add you to the guild first, then you can tell me more about this main quest.”

......

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Flames soared around the forging table. Li Si, bare-chested, swung the forging hammer, pounding and smashing wildly.

The difficulty of leveling Blazing Sky Craftsman to LV3 was clearly higher than LV2.

An hour had already passed.

The upgrade progress bar had only barely increased by 3%.

This meant it would take 33 hours of non-stop work to level up.

“....That’s ridiculous.”

People laugh when they are helpless, and Li Si had just understood that. Knowing he needed to stay in the blacksmith shop for 1 day and 9 hours, he gave a helpless laugh.

Fortunately, forging equipment could trigger the Limiter.

Li Si was quite content, forging while watching his attributes rise.

Inside, he felt a sweet satisfaction.

Time flowed by, and night fell.

“Gugugu….”

Li Si’s stomach started rumbling. The intense hunger urged him to go offline.

“Ding!”

“This forging was successful.”

Having successfully completed a mingyue garment, he decisively put down the forging hammer and used his will to exit the All Heavens Game.

His vision returned to reality.

Li Si went downstairs like a hungry wolf and rushed into Lin Tianhao’s restaurant.

“Two bottles of beer, two bowls of rice, shredded pork with green peppers, diced chicken with chili, and another bowl of seaweed and egg drop soup.”

For some reason, he was especially hungry today.

Li Si felt like he could eat an entire ox.

Soon after, the broad-chested waiter served the food to the table. In less than five minutes, the table was bare; all the food, including the beer, was devoured by Li Si.

This scene shocked everyone in the restaurant.

“Holy cow, is he a hungry ghost?” Many customers muttered to themselves.

“My cooking skills must have improved.” The chef, seeing this scene through the window, confidently adjusted his hat.

“This kid can eat a lot today!”

Lin Tianhao stared at Li Si in a daze, liking him even more. So much appetite, his body must be very strong. His daughter would be blessed.

Li Si was also puzzled. Normally, one and a half bowls of rice would fill him up, and he couldn’t finish two bowls. Today was strangely different; two bowls of rice went down, and he wasn’t even half full.

He couldn’t possibly go hungry, could he?

Helplessly, Li Si could only wave his hand and order again.
