Level Up in Earth Evolution

Chapter 28: Bai Feng

Luna looked at their encounter with a dissatisfied face.

"Those Gods are really stepping ahead to choose the 'Anointed One' as they please," she said coldly.

However Sera didn't show much reaction.

"Well, now we can confirm that they are hiding on Earth. Only then will they be able to choose the 'Anointed One' whoever they wanted to be, but they won't be able to use their powers to interfere; so they can only use some dirty tricks like this," she said, shaking her head, not caring too much about their tricks.

Li Wei looked at the four people in front of him; they were all around his age.

Two of them were boys, and the other two were girls. They were also wearing equipment from this world, but their features indicated that they were from Earth.

The boy looked at Li Xin with a smile.

"It's been a while, Li Xin," he said, waving his hand at her.

Li Xin felt puzzled when she saw him calling her. She didn't know who he was and decided not to respond.

Li Wei looked at the four of them and felt a little familiar.

"Who are you?" he asked with a frown and didn't forget to use Analyze Eye silently on them.

They were in the level 10-15 area, and it was normal to encounter someone. However, they were all from Earth, and, not to mention, they looked familiar.

Seeing his frown the boy answered with a wry smile.

"Li Wei, Li Xin, it looks like you both have forgotten that we were all in the same class before you two dropped out. I am Bai Feng. Do you remember me now?" he said, introducing himself.

Li Wei shook his head.

"No, I don't," he replied with no interest.

He was disappointed with people on Earth and didn't care about it anymore. It would be better if he just didn't encounter anyone from there.

Seeing him uninterested, Bai Feng felt disappointed and didn't know how to continue the conversation.

Then a girl behind him came forward and looked at Li Xin.

"Hi, Li Xin, do you remember me? I am Yang Mian. We have talked about our studies inside the library," she introduced herself and pointed at the other girl behind her.

"And she is Zu Tian, my best friend. She was also in our class but didn't like to read, so you might not know her. And he is Chu Zhi who likes sports," she said, introducing both of them.

Li Xin just looked at her in silence. She didn't remember when she had talked to her; maybe she would have, but she didn't remember her at all and didn't care.

Not knowing how to reply, she looked at Li Wei with a troubled face.

Li Wei saw her asking for help. "Don't worry; I will handle it," he said gently, and looked at Bai Feng.

"Sorry, but we don't remember you and don't want to know you," he stated, not caring about their reactions, and looked at Elva and Alice who were standing behind him.

"Let's go; we should head back to the city," he said and headed back to the city with them following with a nod.

Bai Feng was stunned by his reply, and his face turned ugly. Yang Mian also didn't look good.

"Stop!" she shouted at Li Wei and his party.

Li Wei looked back at her.

"We are not going to stop. What are you going to do?" he said coldly, looking into her eyes.

He knew that Bai Feng was interested in Li Xin, and this girl was trying to match them up; there was no reason to be polite with them.

"You!" Yang Mian became stunned at his reply and wanted to stop him again, but she was stopped by someone.

"Let them go," Bai Feng said, looking at the back of Li Wei with a cold expression.

Yang Mian felt puzzled and asked, "Why did you let me stop them? I know how to talk with people like them," she said with irritation.

Chu Zhi, who was standing there, also nodded.

"Yes, Brother Feng, aren't you interested in Li Xin, and there are also two women from different races with him? If he argued with Yang Mian, I don't think he will have any chances to talk back. If he lost to a girl, he will definitely lose the good impression of those girls, making it easier for you," he explained.

Bai Feng nodded.

"I know, but it isn't the time yet. Just wait for the right time. No matter what kind of luck he has, it's all useless," he said, not explaining to them, and looked in the direction of Li Wei had gone.

'The gods have promised to let me become a hero when the third phase starts, and all I have to do is kill you. With that, every woman around you will be mine,' he smirked inside his mind, thinking of a sinister plan.

Li Wei, who was returning with his party, felt dejected. "What an unlucky day," he sighed.

Li Xin looked at him. "Brother, why are you sighing?" she asked.

Li Wei explained with an irritated expression.

"How can I not sigh? It's an unlucky day. The guild will probably not give us the rewards after that damned wolf ate most of the wolves that we were supposed to kill and level up with them. My two swords are broken too, and later, who knows from where those idiots popped up," he said.

Li Xin smiled at him. "It's okay, brother. It wouldn't happen every day," she said.

Elva nodded, agreeing with her. "Yes, it is very rare for such things to happen, but every adventurer has to face it one day, and the guild will waive our failure penalty and might also compensate us," she explained.

Li Wei felt a little better when he heard the compensation word.

'Well, I can only hope that they will give it as a quest reward,' he thought and became dejected again because he could only receive the bonus if they gave it to him through the quest reward. If not, it might just be a little money to him.

Li Xin knew what he was thinking and decided to change the topic.

"Brother, we are going back early today. Why don't we go out for shopping after we are done reporting to the guild?" she said. "I think Elva and Alice will also join us," she added.

"What?" Both Elva and Alice were stunned. "Is it really okay for us to join you?" Alice asked with an unsure expression. She didn't know about their relationship, but she could see they were close to each other.

Li Xin nodded. "Yes, you are also new in Valeria City, right? Isn't it great if we could go shopping and get to taste the new foods at night?" she replied with a happy expression.

Li Wei looked at her, who was happy, and unknowingly he smiled.

"Okay, we will do as you say," he agreed with her. He too wanted to see the otherworldly shops.

'I should also see if there are any skills I can learn, especially cooking. It is necessary as we might have to spend days outside on some quest,' he pondered.

While Elva, Alice, and Li Xin started to ask each other about the fashion in their worlds.

Li Wei smiled as he looked at them and suddenly remembered something.

"Oh, I forgot about that guy," he murmured and opened the character's panel where he had saved the information of Bai Feng because he felt there was something wrong.

"The Goddess Edition skills are really useful; it can even store their status for me to look at later," he thought and looked at the status of Bai Feng.

Looking at it, he finally confirmed, 'I was right; he is someone like me with an extra bonus or there is no way he could raise his attributes that high unless he has money. But why didn't he choose the 'Jack of All Trades' class to get the 10× bonus?' he pondered with a puzzled expression.

When he received the bonus, he decided to do this, so it shouldn't be that only he thought of this.

"Ding," he suddenly received a message.

Goddess of Death: Not every god is allowed to give a bonus to the 'Jack of All Trades' class, and also, you should know it is a special class, and every special class has its meaning in itself.

'Huh? Every special class has meaning in itself? What does it mean?' he asked with a puzzled expression but didn't receive a reply.

'Anyway, I should be careful of that guy. Who knows what he will do,' he thought and looked at Li Xin, who was immersed in listening of the fashion of their worlds.

"Let's go; we should hurry up, or we will end up late," he reminded them because they were walking slowly. If they continued like this, all of their plans would become useless.

Li Xin and the two girls hurriedly nodded and quickened their pace. They didn't want to miss the chance to shop around the city.
