Transcendent Chapter 22

Chapter 22: Run Faster Than Husky

Although Rakshasa came back ahead of time, Yaeger didn't ask her to continue grinding right off. She said that Rakshasa could take an hour off. She would keep her words.

The two sat under the tree and started to count the harvest they reaped.

The drop rate of equipment and loot was extremely low in the game but the two lucksacks still gained a bunch of loot after grinding for a bit.

Yaeger obtained 50 pieces of White Equipment, 10 pieces of Green Equipment, a large number of recovery potions, and increased her gold coins from 10 to 500.

Rakshasa killed more monsters but the loot she got was far lesser than Yaeger. She obtained 35 White Equipment, 7 Green Equipment, some recovery potions, and 580 gold coins.

As for those wolf skin and wolf fang, they collected more than 2,000 in total. If it wasn't for the inventory capable of stacking 99 of the same items, they would have been crushed by the sheer amount of items long ago.

Rakshasa: *Princess, what's the purpose of collecting these things?*

She was asking about wolf fang and wolf skin.

"These things can be used for certain hidden quests," Yaeger said slowly while packing up her backpack and looking at Rakshasa.

After hearing this, Rakshasa’s eyes shined and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly: *Princess Princess, do you know any hidden secrets?*

Seeing this message, Yaeger’s heart couldn't help but beat half a beat faster. However, she calmed down instantly and said indifferently: "Of course I know, because I am a beta player."

Be that as it may, she was still able to lie with a straight face.

Rather than letting Rakshasa make random guesses, it was better to announce herself as a beta player so that everything she would do became very reasonable.

Rakshasa was very excited: *I know!*

*You know nothing!* Yaeger was not in the mood to smile.

However, even if she really told Rakshasa that she came back from the future, Rakshasa would most likely not believe it.

Because, such a thing was too unscientific.

After checking the harvest, Yaeger opened the Character Info. Now that the [Windchaser Boots] are equipable since she leveled up to level 10.

Yaeger clicked on the [Windchaser Boots] and the pair of boots immediately appeared in the equipment bar in the Character Info screen.

Yaeger's feet flashed with white light in an instant and the cloth boots were instantly replaced by the Windchaser Boots. She felt a feeling of lightness surging from her feet.

Yaeger felt as if she could fly at any moment.

Looking at the skill bar, a skill was added.

[Phantom Step] Increases Agility +50, Dodge +100, and Movement Speed +100% for 15 seconds.

This skill was very good for escaping or kiting during fighting.

Unfortunately, the Cooldown Time was 30 minutes.

"If only the Cooldown Time was one minute, that would be great." Yaeger sighed.

[Windchaser Boots] already had a speed bonus + 25%. After activating [Phantom Step], it would reach an amazing +125%. Coupled with the influence of Yaeger’s Agility points, getting +150% movement speed was not a dream.

Running at full speed would surely feel like a gust of wind.

Rakshasa: *Princess in the future you will definitely outrun the Huskies.*

While looking at the data of [Windchaser Boots], she quickly sent a message.

Their Character Windows were open to each other which showed great trust between them.

"Why are you talking so much." Yaeger lightly knocked her head. *What do you mean I can outrun the Huskies, what a load of nonsense.*

Rakshasa pouted with dissatisfaction: *I also want to run fast.*

"What, aren’t you just as fast if you activate your Charge skill?"

Rakshasa: *What's the use of charging in a straight line? I have such low HP and I could have been killed before even reaching the others.*

She was very dissatisfied with the skill [Fearless Charge]. Why could it only charge in a straight line? Why did it greatly reduce defense when charging? Wasn’t this fraudulent!?

Although the attack power would increase greatly when charging, she was afraid that if she became the Focus Fire, that’d render the charge skill meaningless.

Yaeger’s mouth twitched slightly. *Is your HP still low?*

*Even someone at level 10 wouldn’t have HP as much as yours!*

Rakshasa: *By the way, princess, I have something to ask you.*

"What is it?"

Rakshasa: *Why can we enter the game early? Wouldn’t the public beta start tomorrow?*

"Because we are qualified for the closed beta, so we can enter the game in advance." Anyway, Rakshasa would also come to know about it after tomorrow so Yaeger didn’t mind telling her in advance.

Rakshasa was a little surprised: *Oh, so that’s the case. I thought that there were bugs in the game.*

"Wait, did you think you entered by mistake?"

Rakshasa nodded vigorously. Before entering the game, she had been playing with the terminal, wondering how this little thing would allow her to enter the game.

However, it didn’t bear fruit. But at 12:00, the terminal emitted a faint white light and the next thing she knew, she was in the game.

"You're just lucky." 

*It was more than just luck. It’s just the matter of being chosen, okay.* Yaeger muttered in her heart.

Rakshasa: *My luck should be okay. Then again, princess, is it cheating to come into the game ahead of time like us?*

"How can obtaining a closed beta pass be called cheating?" Yaeger said seriously.

Arwooooo!

Rakshasa wanted to say something but a wolf howl came from the grassland.

"Let's start." Yaeger looked at the constantly respawning wind wolf on the grassland and a faint smile immediately appeared on her face.

Rakshasa had a feeling of nausea, not toward Yaeger, but toward these wind wolves. Both women immediately entered into the state of battle and the one-sided battle started again.

Ten minutes later, the area was completely quiet.

Yaeger and Rakshasa began to clean the battlefield.

Suddenly...

"Ding! You have triggered a hidden quest, [Wind Wolf's Revenge]."

As the notification triggered, a tornado suddenly appeared on the horizon, sweeping everything in its way.

Then, Rakshasa and Yaeger saw a giant wolf above the tornado!
