Samsara Online Chapter 192 The strongest party (4)

Having finished his purpose inside the city, Xie Feng ran without stopping to the meeting place marked by Xie Yao and the rest.

After leaving the city walls, Xie Feng did not stop and continued to advance a bit deeper into the forest.

Unlike the Fresh Plains in the east, unlike the western zone, and the northern zone of Eminentis City, the southern zone was dominated by all kinds of lakes and rivers that flowed into a huge ocean. In short, in the south of Eminentis City was one of the borders of the Adastreia Continent.

Beyond the wide ocean, no one knew what kind of lands and dangers awaited since no one managed to cross the dangers lurking in the waters. However, all Chinese players knew that if they made it across the dangerous and raging ocean, what awaited them beyond was a battle zone different from their own. A zone dominated by other players from other countries and domains.

Unfortunately, although many players wished to show the whole world that their country was the best and strongest, it was not possible to fight against other battle zones; at least, not now. To cross the vast ocean it was necessary to build tools such as special boats and gather a large amount of resources. In addition, players also had to be powerful and confident enough to face all kinds of monsters that lurked beneath the deep waters of the vast ocean.

Precisely because the southern area of Eminentis City was plagued by water, the predominant monsters in the area were mainly aquatic monsters or amphibious monsters. The southern zone was not a popular area for players wishing to level up as many aquatic monsters had powerful long range attacks, which greatly frustrated the ma.s.ses as they could not get close enough to attack and, except for mages and archers, the close combat cla.s.ses could only be intimidated by fish.

However, although the southern zone was not popular among battle type players, it was very popular for players who were looking for peace, tranquility, and players who chose a fisherman type lifestyle cla.s.s. In Samsara Online, people could choose from a myriad of lifestyle cla.s.ses if they did not wish to fight monsters; fishermen, herb gatherers, miners, appraisers, seamstress, cook, and many others.

Best of all, as long as you worked hard enough and had a bit of luck, even a fisherman could become a millionaire. In the ocean, rivers, and lakes, there were not only extremely rare fish that permanently increased the stats, but there were also all kinds of sunken objects in the waters, waiting to be discovered.

In addition, not only fisherman cla.s.s players were allowed to use fishing rods, all players were allowed to fish. However, the difference was that if a battle type player wished to obtain a rare fish or a valuable object, the possibilities were simply incomparable to that of a fisherman cla.s.s player.

Due to the usual calmness of the place and the small number of players compared to other places, Xie Yao and the rest were waiting for Xie Feng in that place. Otherwise, with the fame of Xie Feng, Xie Yao, and Gu Qianxue after what happened in the previous war, none of them would be able to have a moment of peace and have fun with their friends.

"Well, well! But look who's here! If not the busiest person of all, the strongest player in China, the legendary Shiva-san!"

When Xie Feng appeared in the distance wearing normal equipment and a tiger mask, he had already seen Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, Xiao Luo, Hu Chen, and Yue Kai sitting on a giant rock chatting with each other. However, what he didn't expect was that when he raised his hand to greet them, Yue Kai mercilessly sneered as he stood up.

"I was really doing something important, man..." Xie Feng slapped Yue Kai's back as he greeted the rest and apologized, "Besides, what's with that 'legendary Shiva-san', are you j.a.panese or what?"

"Forget it Xie Feng, this guy is trying to court a girl from our university and when he found out that the girl loved anime, he also started watching anime and reading j.a.panese manga. This guy even jumped the first hour in the morning to read a manga called 'Defense of t.i.tans' or something like that." Hu Chen also stood up and began to reveal his friend's secrets.

"I think it was 'Attack', instead of 'Defense'" Xiao Luo corrected.

"You two! You told me you weren't going to tell anyone!" Yue Kai became furious and started fighting with the two.

Seeing the trio arguing as normal, Xie Feng and the two beauties laughed at each other as they watched the scene with amus.e.m.e.nt.

* * *

After greeting his friends, Xie Feng and Xie Yao, Gu Qianxue, and Xiao Luo's trio looked for a place relatively far away from the rest of the players. Although the players were so few that the closest one to them was almost 100 meters away, which proved how unpopulated the southern area was.

Having found a nearby river, the six stopped there. The water of the river was clear as crystal and the sound of the gently flowing water along with small fish of all kinds of colors created an extremely beautiful sight.

Since Xie Feng never thought about fishing, it was impossible for him to have a fishing rod in his inventory. Fortunately, Xie Yao seemed to be looking out for him at all times since she took out two fishing rods from her inventory and gave one to Xie Feng.

Xie Feng couldn't help but kiss her a couple of times when he saw Xie Yao's beautiful smile, earning an aggrieved look from Gu Qianxue. Knowing that he could not favor one too much and leave the other aside, Xie Feng also kissed the s.e.xy Gu Qianxue.

The problem was that Hu Chen and the other two still believed that Xie Feng and Gu Qianxue were cousins... The three of them had their eyes wide open and looked like it was going to pop out of their sockets at any moment as they pointed at Xie Feng and stared at him in disbelief.

"*Cough*... Actually, the thing is..."

How could Xie Feng not know what these three perverts were thinking? After hesitating for a moment, Xie Feng decided to tell them the truth.

Although he left out details that were better for the three of them not to know, Xie Feng explained Gu Qianxue's true status as well as the reason why she had moved to Shanghai.

"I see... And to think that little sister Gu Qianxue actually has a status similar to that of a princess in the real world." Xiao Luo looked at Gu Qianxue with surprise and nodded with understanding after Xie Feng explained the circ.u.mstances.

"Is it your right to call my Qianxue 'Little Sister Qianxue'? Em?" Xie Feng couldn't help but kick Xiao Luo in the b.u.t.t upon hearing the intimate way he called Gu Qianxue.

"*Cough*.. I'm sorry, I didn't have any strange intentions... Stop staring at me like that, you two!" Xiao Luo blushed in embarra.s.sment and glared angrily at Yue Kai and Hu Chen. who were enjoying other people's misfortunes.

"Anyway, thank you for telling us the truth."

After the jokes were put aside, Yue Kai looked at Xie Feng and thanked him honestly:

"Although there might be things you still hide, it means a lot to us that you tell us more about yourself. After all, to us, you are a true friend."

Xie Feng closed his eyes and gave him a gentle slap on the back. Then, he stood silently as he looked at the rod in his hands, hoping to catch something.

On the other hand, while watching the small exchange, Gu Qianxue and Xie Yao looked at each other and smiled to themselves. Especially Xie Yao, she was incredibly happy that Xie Feng could have close people to confide in. Although it was important that Yue Kai and the rest could help him physically, they could be a moral and mental support for him. That was good enough from Xie Yao's point of view, since she knew how lonely Xie Feng really was behind that powerful appearance that everyone saw.

The six of them chatted with each other, told each other jokes and banter, which created a really nice atmosphere. Even Xie Feng, who spent most of the time alone and enjoying the silence, appreciated the time they were all spending together.

Thanks to that little moment of peace and companionship, Xie Feng remembered that in reality, it didn't take much to be happy. As long as the people close to him had a good life, that was another kind of happiness.

At some point even little Ling Long joined the group and approached the river while trying to catch the fish that came too close to the riverbank and jumped up to the surface.

Unfortunately, peaceful moments did not usually continue for too long.

While the six humans and a small dragon were trying to catch some fish, a group of nearly 100 players was approaching step by step and, judging by the direction they were walking, the destination of the large group of players was undoubtedly where Xie Feng and the rest were.

Xie Feng slowly stood up and narrowed his eyes as he looked in the direction of the incoming group of 100 players in an effort to identify them.

"Em?" Xie Feng suddenly seemed slightly surprised about something, since in that group of players, there were some people that he recognized.
