MMO: Pierce Heaven Til' It Breaks Chapter 421 - Frogmen Tribe Teleportation Stone

The quests from Frogmen Tribe could only raise their Reputation Value at most, to Friendly. After that, there were no more quests to bring up the Reputation Value. It really was dejecting to be able to see the items sold by the Quartermaster yet not able to touch it.

Windless Heavenly Robe was persistent enough to experiment again and again. Finally, he found a way to raise the Reputation Value.

He found that by gifting Frog Queen clothes, it could simultaneously boost Frogman’s Reputation Value and Frog Queen’s Affinity.

“You can give it the same design of clothes, no matter men or women’s but it can’t be the same or else the Reputation Value won’t increase. In fact, the Frog Queen’s Affinity will drop,” Li Yi was the only friend Windless Heavenly Robe had in the game. He never held back on Li Yi and told him everything.

“You’re back here for a quest, right? This is for you, just give it to Frog Queen later.”

Windless Heavenly Robe gave Li Yi a bunch of armor. He had no use for them but it would be of help to Li Yi if he handed them to Frog Queen. Frog Queen’s Affinity was counted separately towards players. Even if Windless Heavenly Robe gave the same clothes before, it would not affect Li Yi’s Affinity.

Windless Heavenly Robe was beaming with joy, “I could only give gifts once a day at the beginning but once Frog Queen’s Affinity turned to Intimate, I can send it three garments a day. I don’t even have to report to Frogman Guard, I can just go in and see Frog Queen.”

“Thanks.”

“No need for the formality. I played Pantheon for more than a year now and you’re my only friend,” Windless Heavenly Robe laughed out loud.

“You know you can be like me, take on quests while seeing the outside world. There’s really no need to remain here.”

Windless Heavenly Robe thought about it before giving Li Yi a nod, “Yeah, I will in the future. Once I manage to get Wors.h.i.+p from Frogmen Tribe and Frog Queen, I’ll head to the outside world.”

A stubborn-headed mule always followed through whatever they set their mind on. Since Windless Heavenly Robe said so, no one could convince him otherwise.

Li Yi and Windless Heavenly Robe had a little chat before the former left Tailor’s Shop to experiment on Frog Queen.

His Reputation Value was not as much as Windless Heavenly Robe’s. When he arrived at Frog Queen’s bedroom, he has to report himself to the Frogman Guards first. If Frog Queen was in a good mood, it would grant him an audience but if it was in a bad mood, he has to wait until tomorrow.

Li Yi was in luck. Frogman Guards returned quickly and informed him that Frog Queen has agreed to see him.

The snowy white Frog Queen lay on its bed, spread out as it narrowed its eyes as it yawned.

“Are you the new frogman?” Frog Queen asked.

“Yes, I have a gift for you.”

Although the recipient was a toad, for the sake of his Frogmen Tribe’s Reputation Value, Li Yi held in his disgust.

Li Yi took out a purple-colored armor to hand to Frog Queen.

Windless Heavenly Robe did not have a high level in tailoring. The most he could sew was a gold-colored armor. This purple-colored armor was brought by Li Yi.

“What a beautiful garment…”

Frog Queen’s eyes lit up as it took the purple-colored armor. It stood up to try it on.

Ding ding!

System Notification: [The Affinity between you and the Frog Queen has increased by 5000 points. Frogmen Tribe’s Reputation Value has increased by 5000 points.]

[Frog Queen’s Affinity to you is now Friendly.]

A mere purple-colored armor has heightened Frog Queen’s Affinity to Li Yi to a new level!

Li Yi was satisfied with this result. He took out an Epic-level equipment to test if Frog Queen’s Affinity has anything to do with its quality.

Frog Queen wore the purple-colored armor and twirled a few rounds. It was so happy it was beaming.

With Frog Queen’s Affinity up to Friendly, he could now present her three gifts a day. Li Yi fell deep into thought before taking out another purple-colored armor.

Li Yi did not have many purple-colored Epic-level armors that no one could use. He only has three of them but he was cas.h.i.+ng them all in for Frogmen Tribe’s Reputation Value.

“Not a bad garment…”

Frog Queen took the purple-colored armor to examine it in front of the mirror. It did not attempt to wear it this time. It only nodded in satisfaction and climbed back to bed.

Ding ding!

System Notification: [The Affinity between you and Frog Queen has increased by 100 points. Frogmen Tribe’s Reputation Value has increased by 100 points.]

The equipment was of the same quality yet a giant gap?

Li Yi was shocked.

Li Yi thought about it long and hard before he caught an inkling. The first was female equipment, while the second was male equipment…

He still has one more chance for the day. Li Yi no longer attempted to give purple-colored equipment but took out the tras.h.i.+est white-colored female skirt to gift to Frog Queen.

“What a beautiful garment…”

Frog Queen’s eyes were beaming with joy as it accepted the white skirt. It stood up to wear it…

Ding ding!

System Notification: [The Affinity between you and Frog Queen has increased by 2000 points. Frogmen Tribe’s Reputation Value has increased by 2000 points.]

Li Yi was speechless!

Even the tras.h.i.+est white-colored equipment could raise this much. The earlier second purple-colored armor was given in vain…

Quality was one thing but the gender style was most important.

After the gift-giving session was over, Frog Queen ignored Li Yi and went to bed.

Li Yi left the bedroom. He made a round of the castle exterior before walking back.

With the increase of Frog Queen’s Affinity, the Frogman Guards no longer barred his way. He could come and go as he liked.

Li Yi did not kill Frog Queen. Although at his current level, he was fully capable of doing so he had to bear with it for the sake of daily gift-giving.

It took at least two weeks for Frog Queen to sp.a.w.n if it died. It was not worth the wait.

“Dark Wing, are you heading back?”

Just as Li Yi was about to leave for the city, Windless Heavenly Robe sent a private message.

“Not yet, what’s up?”

“I have something for you. Tell me your coordinates.”

“Oh, I’m just outside the Tailor’s Shop. You’ll be able to see me when you’re out the door.”

Windless Heavenly Robe in frogman Transformed state snuck out of the Tailor’s Shop and hopped towards Li Yi before handing him a sky blue jewel.

[Frogmen Tribe Teleportation Stone (gold quality): A light dab would send you to Frogmen Tribe. Teleportation cooldown period: 12 hours.]

“This…” Li Yi was surprised.

Every player’s backpack was stored with a Return City Stone of their respective continent that could be used within the continent or around the Abyssal Crevice. Li Yi was in the Southern Continent’s Wailing Grotto so Return City Stone was out of the question. He has to exit the place and fly back.

Frogmen Tribe Teleportation Stone did not limit the location. No matter where Li Yi was, a slight rub-a-dub on this stone would send him straight to Wailing Grotto’s Frogmen Tribe.

This… was equivalent to divine equipment. An everlasting teleportation device like this was too precious.

Windless Heavenly Robe smiled, “This was given to me when I gave Frog Queen clothes. It told me that this is incredibly precious and told me to use with care.”

Seeing Li Yi have something to say about it, Windless Heavenly Robe waved his hand, “Don’t tell me this thing’s expensive and that you wouldn’t dare accept it. I’m not interested in that. You should know that I’m here every day so this teleportation stone is of no use to me. You’re different. You’re coming back and forth every day. You’ll need this.”

Before Li Yi could say anything, Windless Heavenly Robe logged off.

This stubborn-headed mule was the same when giving gifts. He would not take no for an answer…

However, even if he was a stubborn-headed mule, he was a cute and non-violent stubborn-headed mule…

Li Yi helplessly smiled and sent a message to Jiaojiao, “Clan Master Jiao, pull me.”

A few seconds later, a s.h.i.+mmering King’s Order floated above Li Yi’s head. He gently touched it and instantly reached Naga Altar.

Sea G.o.d’s Palace was in the deep ocean junction between Eastern and Southern Continent. The use of King’s Order was only limited within the continent and Sea G.o.d’s Palace was considered within the borders of the Eastern Continent. Any further, and the King Order’s would be invalid.

Jiaojiao and the rest were still grinding levels. Although the 5.5x EXP buff has worn off, they were on a killing spree. Their EXP gain was still on the rise.

“Where did you head to pick up girls?” Jiaojiao’s jealous voice was head.

“I went upstairs to pick up a young lady named Xie Jiaojiao.”

Tee hee—

Jiaojiao covered her chuckles and stiffened her face, “Xie Jiaojiao said she can’t be picked up.”

Little Elf from the Magical Realm piped in, “Right, Lonely Semi City messaged us earlier to join in on grinding levels. We didn’t dare to answer since you’re not here.”

Li Yi frowned and shook his head.

Although Lonely Semi City was officially part of the guild, the secret of this level-up location bug should never be leaked. It was best they kept it to themselves and the fewer people that knew, the better.

Truth be told, Confused Fox, Flower Underpants, etc Guild Masters of Iron Alliance had once asked Li Yi the best place to level up.

But how could he reveal such a broken place to level up?

“Don’t say yes yet. Leave him on his own. It’s not a legal place to level up so it’s best that word doesn’t get out.”

“Okay,” The girls nodded.

Li Yi discharged River Crab to a.s.sist Jiaojiao and the rest with farming monsters before heading back to the city.

The whole of Iron Alliance was currently fixated on leveling…

Li Yi returned to Celestial Capital to release an announcement on the Alliance channel.

“All Level 80 and above Guild Elites, please report. Target, Level 100!”

Li Yi’s announcement sounded innocuous but it caused a stir within the alliance.

“Hahaha, I told you Guild Master Dark Wing will not hog the good stuff. He will take us to level up.”

“Hog, your head! You’re nothing without Guild Master Dark Wing.”

“Pah, slip of my tongue. I…”

Elites of Iron Alliance went wild.

The number of Level 80 and above elites in Iron Alliance quicken added up. It was a ma.s.sive count of over 20,000…

They did nothing but grind levels for the whole month, of course, their levels steadily went up…

Then came Li Yi’s new order!

“Target, Level 80 map, Black Rock Mountain!”
