Chapter 21: Gangster Achievement

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Not long after, the dungeon was cleared. After Zhou Nan finished collecting the loot, he opened the treasure chest and obtained 36 gold coins, 52 experience points, an unappraised white card, a Heroic Village Guard card, and some low-level materials.

After combining the Heroic Village Guard card and the Field Black Bear card, Zhou Nan obtained the fourth Heroic Bear card, which was called ‘Heroic Bear, Peggy’.

After appraising the unappraised white card, a 2-star white card ‘Saber-tooth Tiger, Tiger’ appeared.

“With another member of the Heroic Bear team, I can use this 2-star Saber-toothed Tiger. This time, I’ll use a mixed team to complete the hidden achievement!”

Zhou Nan was full of fighting spirit. He planned to complete the hidden achievement, Murloc 666. Just as he was selecting a room, he received a call from I Am Not a Hero. “Conventional Casanar N4, are you coming?”

Zhou Nan replied, “I haven’t even unlocked N3 yet!”

I Am Not a Hero said, “You haven’t even started N3 Yet? Why don’t I bring you along? Let’s play a round of conventional N2?”

Zhou Nan said, “Do you have time?”

I Am Not a Hero said, “I have more free time at the moment. Thunder God’s Vessel and Watch My Thunder Strike have gone to play in the arena. Recently, an ‘Unlimited Firepower’ entertainment mode has been released. The two of them quite like it.”

Zhou Nan replied, “Unlimited Firepower? I’ve never heard of this before. Is it a new way to play? What’s the point of it?”

I Am Not a Hero said, “It’s just using cards that don’t consume magic and don’t have a cooldown. When a summoned beast dies, it can be summoned immediately. In a group fight, each person will bring a bunch of summoned beasts. It’s mindless fighting. It’s quite boring.”

Zhou Nan replied, “Ah, it sounds quite interesting.”

He had an idea. He wondered what would happen if he brought Cannon Follower into the infinite firepower arena? Would he have an infinite number of Murloc cannonballs to fire? Would it not be super easy to ascend to the stars? Then he would definitely have to experience it later.

I Am Not a Hero said, “Then do you still need me to bring you to farm regular N2?”

Zhou Nan Thought for a moment. He had originally planned to clear the hidden achievement of Murloc 666. It did not matter if it was N1 or N2 difficulty. If he were to farm N2 difficulty, he would be able to unlock N3 after clearing it. Moreover, the reward for clearing the treasure chest was more generous. It was obviously more cost-effective.

However, he did not want to owe a favor for no reason, nor did he need to owe a favor. He decided that it was better for him to play with a group of passersby. He said, “There’s no need. I can play by myself.”

“I rarely bring people with me, and you actually refused… Alright then, shall we go to hidden mode together tomorrow?”

“That sounds good!”

“Then I’ll see you tomorrow…”

After ending the call with I Am Not a Hero, Zhou Nan quickly entered a game room.

Its name was ‘N2, monster snatching style, veterans should join!”

“What kind of style is monster snatching style?”

Zhou Nan curiously asked.

After Zhou Nan entered, he discovered that the owner’s nickname was ‘Strongest Gangster’, level 6, cleared 12 times!

The second player’s nickname was ‘Dali let me out of a miracle’, level 6, cleared 11 times.

The third player’s nickname was ‘Valkyrie Lin Yun’, level 5, cleared 9 times.

Strongest Gangster said, “Are we going with this guy? He’s only level 3.”

Dali said, “That level may be too low. Let’s find someone more reliable.”

Her voice was clear and bright. It was actually a female player.

Zhou Nan did not say anything else and posted the Protect Casanar N1 Solo Pass Certificate.

Strongest Gangster said, “You passed N1 solo? That should be alright! If you’re not an expert, you wouldn’t have done it alone.”

Dali said, “That might not be the case. N1 is easy after all. We didn’t try it. If we really want to go solo, we should be able to clear it too. You should show us your cards.”

Zhou Nan posted the attributes of Saber-toothed Tiger, Tiger and Heroic Bear, Peggy. He said, “I know how to move bricks, and I’m proficient in logging. I’ll also take care of the gathering mission. You won’t regret bringing me along!”

Strongest Gangster said, “Ah, you’ve got black cards! I’m bringing him. Click prepare, and we’ll start the game!”

Thus, five seconds later, Zhou Nan was teleported to the dungeon space. In front of him stood a big man with a strong build. He was about 1.9 meters tall, and his figure was even more majestic than Watch My Thunder Strike. He had a face full of stubble.

“Hello, I am Valkyrie Lin Yun. It’s nice to meet you!”

That player smiled at Zhou Nan and extended his hand, indicating that he wanted to shake hands with Zhou Nan.

“Valkyrie Lin Yun… It’s a pleasure to meet you!”

Zhou Nan had thought that this player was a girl. 

Meanwhile, Dali was a rather tall female player. Her expression was cold, and she casually glanced at Zhou Nan. He vaguely felt that there was a hint of provocation in her gaze.

Strongest Gangster was a handsome male player. He looked very young and graceful. He said, “Alright, Sister Dali and I are both fighters, the super violent type. How do you guys plan to play… Wow, what’s the situation with you? Why is he even bringing a puppy?”

He looked at Zhou Nan’s feet. Only then did the other two realize that there was a puppy circling around Zhou Nan.

Zhou nan said, “It’s just a little pet. It’s not worth mentioning.”

“It’s so flashy. A dungeon is not a place to walk a little dog.”

Dali said, “What’s the point of bringing such a small summoned beast? Can it tank or fight?”

“Little sister, you don’t understand. This is called a companion pet. Isn’t that right, Black Card Emperor?”

Valkyrie Lin Yun said. He even bent down, wanting to tease the puppy.

The puppy ignored him and only stayed by Zhou Nan’s feet.

Dali Let Me Out of a Miracle said, “Alright, don’t waste time. Gangster and I will go to the east and west side exits to stop the monsters. We’ll come back after the first two waves. I’ll leave the task of moving bricks to the two of you. I hope that you can complete it by then.”

Zhou Nan said, “It won’t be a big problem.”

Valkyrie Lin Yun nodded and said, “Sure!”

“Then we’ll act immediately!”

Dali was just like a commander. She felt very good about herself. It was very obvious that she knew the Strongest Gangster. The two of them went to the east and the west respectively.

Zhou Nan did not waste any more time. He let George and Peggy out and said to Valkyrie Lin Yun, “Be careful. I’ll go and do a logging mission first, and I’ll bring the two village guards over. You carry the bricks first.”

Valkyrie Lin Yun looked at the two Heroic Bears. He was easy to talk to and said, “Sure… it’s just that we need to carry 400 bricks on N2 difficulty. Even with the help of these two Heroic Bears, it might take 20 minutes!”

“No worries, I don’t see a problem!”

Zhou Nan smiled and activated the logging quest. Then, he went to the wild monster forest and released Panda and Tiger. He let them farm the Mutated Murlocs and Mud Slimes. Then, he released Heroic Bear Soro, Broo, and George. He brought them along to clear the path.

The logging quest only required 200 pieces of wood. If one person did this mission, just logging alone would take 20 minutes. Zhou Nan brought two Heroic Bear helpers and completed it in less than seven minutes. He returned to the village, after completing the mission with Krulu, he quickly ran to the south of the village and triggered a conversation with village guards, Martin and Marco.

When the two village guards returned to the village square and climbed up the sentry tower, Valkyrie Lin Yun had not finished moving the bricks.

He said in surprise, “Black Card Emperor, you’re really fast at cutting wood. I’ve never seen someone so agile.”

Zhou Nan said, “Should I call myself a gangster too?”

“No, you’re definitely much more reliable than that Gangster and the Dali girl. Now that we have these two village guards to help defend, we’ll definitely clear the level.”

As Valkyrie Lin Yun spoke, he threw out his own card. With a bang, that card turned into a Cow Warrior.

That Cow Warrior looked rather comical, like a large cow that was standing on its hind legs. Its appearance was slightly cartoonish, with black and white colors on its body. It was also holding a long-handled wooden hammer.

“Ah, Cow Warrior, this card is not bad. I remember it’s a meat shield.” Zhou Nan said.

He had seen Cow Warrior before and knew that it was a 1-star green card summoned beast. It used a long wooden hammer to attack. There was a passive skill that seemed to be called ‘Light of Collision’. Once triggered, it could deal double the magic damage to the target. It could also recover an equal amount of hp for itself..
