Chapter 245 Being targeted
The players coming and going looked in the direction of Lin Chen with some confusion.
They just felt a little strange. Who was this mysterious man in the mask? How could he make this enhancement master, who was known for his sharp tongue,... cry?
Xiaoyun stood by the side of the furnace, covering her face and sobbing. Her body was shaking. From a distance, it was obvious how sad she was crying.
"Oh my god...someone actually scolded this black-hearted lady boss to tears?"
"real or fake?"
"Look for yourself! Isn't that NPC the Enhancement Technician crying? Who else could it be if not that masked man scolding him?"
"God bless you! Finally someone has let us vent our anger!"
"Who said it wasn't? It was this woman who made me so angry that I even spent money to go to other intermediate main cities to strengthen my equipment!"
But when they continued to watch, they felt a little reluctant.
I always feel a little uncomfortable seeing that arrogant woman crying so miserably.
When did she look like this now...crying like a child.
……
Lin Chen felt that his "mission" was almost completed. He never owed Xiaoyun anything, and he didn't want any reward from the other party.
I'm just trying to help out as a fellow citizen of the same world and from the same country.
It’s almost time for me to go.
However, just as Lin Chen was about to turn around, Xiaoyun had already calmed down a little. She kept fanning herself with her palms, then puffed out her cheeks and blew out the air in an attempt to hold back her tears.
After more than ten seconds, Xiaoyun took a deep breath and forced a not-so-attractive smile on his face.
"Wait a minute..." Xiaoyun called out to Lin Chen.
"Are you okay?" Lin Chen raised his head towards Xiaoyun and asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Xiaoyun wiped the corners of her eyes, her nose red. "Thank you. In order to return to Earth as soon as possible, I decided to fulfill my duties as an NPC and strive to be able to return to reality safely when the Hunter God Land closes."
Hearing this, Lin Chen became interested: "Oh? Then how do you plan to fulfill your responsibilities?"
"This... don't bother you." Xiaoyun suddenly showed a smile that Lin Chen had never seen before.
She looked very happy.
As Xiaoyun herself said, she was actually... just a child all along.
"By the way, to express my gratitude, I can enhance a level 40 piece of equipment to level 10 for you for free! I guarantee it won't get damaged!"
As if he had been waiting for Xiaoyun to say this, Lin Chen actually threw a piece of equipment over.
Xiaoyun took it subconsciously, and her face suddenly became speechless.
In her hand was the rusty iron sword that she was very familiar with.
"You..." Xiaoyun raised his head.
"Help me upgrade it to level 12." Lin Chen crossed his arms. "It's a level 1 white item, and it's already been enhanced to level 5. So the materials and money needed to upgrade it to level 12 are much cheaper than level 40 equipment."
"Are you serious?" Xiao Yun said as he put his gloves back on. "I'm really going to put it in the furnace. If you regret it later, I won't admit it."
Lin Chen didn't say anything, but just gestured to Xiaoyun to continue.
"Okay, I really don't understand you."
Xiaoyun skillfully opened the furnace, then carefully placed the iron sword into it, and finally began to put all kinds of materials into it.
After a series of mysterious strengthening incantations were recited, a countdown appeared on the stove's timer.
It only takes two or three minutes for the iron sword to be enhanced to level 12, and Xiaoyun also activated the equipment enhancement guarantee scroll in the process, so it can be enhanced all the way to level 12 without being damaged.
Xiaoyun felt it was a pity to use this kind of tool on a rusty iron sword.
The two of them stood there staring at each other, waiting for the stove countdown to zero.
During the process, Xiaoyun would glance at Lin Chen from time to time.
When she saw Lin Chen's eyes moving towards her from under the mask, she would immediately look away.
"What's wrong?" Lin Chen didn't care, he just felt that the other party had something to say.
Xiaoyun coughed and was about to say it was nothing when she suddenly remembered something.
"By the way, where is the female elf next to you?" Xiaoyun turned to look at Lin Chen: "Why is she not next to you?"
Hearing Xiaoyun mention Elena, Lin Chen was also confused: "Why?"
"I just want to remind you that as a second-round player, you should know what happened between the player groups last time."
Xiaoyun used a rag to wipe the melon seeds on the table. The melon seeds that she once regarded as treasures were now wiped away by her, and the table that was originally messy was now spotless.
Just as Xiaoyun herself said, she seemed to really intend to do her job well.
But Lin Chen fell silent after hearing what the other party said.
He naturally knew what happened in the previous life that the other party mentioned, about the things between the elves and humans.
Lin Chen opened the system page and took a look at the current level rankings.
As he expected, someone had already reached level 47.
In the previous life, around this time, the human race had begun to gradually anger another race in the Land of the Hunting God: the elves. If the situation was not much different from the last time, it would probably not be long before a very serious "war" broke out between the two races.
However, when he thought of Elena's strength, Lin Chen felt a little abrupt.
"It's okay. If someone wants to get over it, let them go."
The indicator of the furnace beside me made a crisp sound.
Xiaoyun opened the furnace skillfully and took out the strengthened rusty iron sword from the inside.
Speaking of which, even for Xiaoyun, who is an equipment enhancer, it was the first time that he saw the [Rusty Iron Sword] being enhanced to level 12 in his hands one day.
The appearance of this strengthened iron sword had undergone a drastic change compared to before. The faint light that originally covered the blade was completely eliminated, replaced by a cold and deep silver-gray luster, like the stars and the tranquil waves of the sea.
Xiaoyun placed it carefully on the table.
Lin Chen stretched out his hand and raised the sword.
Ok……
The feel has changed too.
The blade of the iron sword is thin and tough, and the sharp edge flashes coldly under the light, as if it can easily cut through the air. Looking closely at the sword, just like the soul-breaking sword, the surface of the iron sword is faintly flashing with starlight.
"Thanks."
Lin Chen put the iron sword back into his backpack.
Xiaoyun did not try to stop Lin Chen this time. Instead, he lowered his voice and reminded him the moment Lin Chen turned around and left.
"Be careful, you seem to be being watched."
Lin Chen smiled and waved his hand behind him.
"I know."
