Chapter 28

What did Yang Ye see?

He saw that the mage had actually teleported!

Yes! He had indeed teleported, instantly flashing out from the encirclement of three monsters...

Yang Ye was instantly stunned, this... what the hell is going on?

The mage was also taken aback when he saw Yang Ye rushing over, but then he smiled, nodded at Yang Ye, turned around, pointed his staff forward, and the health of one of the monsters dropped rapidly, dying in a moment, then he aimed at another...

Four monsters, all killed by his staff...

Then, he put away his staff and slowly walked towards Yang Ye.

"Hey... hey." Yang Ye greeted with a bit of a stutter, his head was full of confusion and a basket of questions.

The mage nodded at Yang Ye again, smiling and said, "You were trying to save me just now, right? Thank you."

Yang Ye finally returned to normal, he shook his head and said dejectedly, "Save what? If I didn't save you, you would be fine anyway."

The mage smiled but didn't speak. Seeing that he didn't speak, Yang Ye continued, "Can I ask what your skill is?"

"Temporal Mage, a hidden class." The mage said softly, with a hint of pride in his eyes.

"Temporal... Temporal Mage?! Hidden class? This game really has hidden classes?" Yang Ye was surprised, indeed, it was a hidden class!

"Why not? Wouldn't it be boring without them? By the way, want to level up together? I see you're pretty fast too, let's team up." As he spoke, he sent a team request to Yang Ye.

This was the first time Yang Ye teamed up with someone, and the first time it was a hidden class. Speaking of which, that guy had really good luck, how did he get it? Maybe I'll go get one too someday? Yang Ye was jealous, even the way the mage looked at him while eating peaches was different.

The two formed a team, one with abnormal equipment and abnormal output, the other with a hidden class and abnormal output, making them feel the thrill of leveling up.

Killing monsters and leveling up alone is so boring, chatting is much more interesting. Indeed, the two really hit it off!

I Eat Peaches seemed gentle, but he was actually quite lewd. After chatting with Yang Ye for a few hours, they got quite heated up, and all kinds of jokes and words came out, making Yang Ye truly understand what it meant to be a wolf in sheep's clothing. Of course, Yang Ye himself wasn't a good person either, and when they talked about lewd topics, they would just grin at each other, making Lilianna roll her eyes countless times.

"Damn, Promise, your weapon is that Spirit-level weapon, right? Damn, it's so cool! It even has special effects! Awesome!" I Eat Peaches exclaimed.

"Sure, why not? Want to take a look?" Yang Ye waved his sword and asked.

"Damn, are you kidding? Come on, come on, come on."

Yang Ye wasn't worried, wasn't this a good way to test someone's character? I Eat Peaches was quite to his liking, straightforward. He immediately traded the sword to Peaches and said, "Be careful, don't damage it! Otherwise, you'll have to pay with your staff!" As he said this, his eyes were fixed on Peaches' staff.

"Damn, Promise, you're so observant, you saw it at a glance?" I Eat Peaches exclaimed, while swinging his staff, the Wailing Legacy of the Moonlight Mad Clan, and praising it.

Could Yang Ye not see it? He was holding a 25th-level Spirit-level staff, Time Traveler - Absolute, and knew all its attributes!

After returning the weapon to Yang Ye, I Eat Peaches said, "Hey, Promise, you think we're so awesome, what should we do to dominate the game in the future?"

"Hmm... That's a problem, after all, there can only be one king. How about we have a showdown on Mount Hua? Whoever gets hit by a skill first loses, what do you think?"

"Hey, kid, you're too cocky, do you know who I am? I Eat Peaches! Do you know my class? Temporal Mage! Do you know my skill? Ultra-short cooldown teleport! Teleport!! Are you afraid of teleporting?"

"What? Cocky? Do you believe I can beat you now? Try to dodge, I want to see how many times you can dodge at your current level, do you have enough mana for the cooldown? If you don't dodge, I'll attack!" Yang Ye retorted.

I Eat Peaches immediately deflated. Although he seemed to be dodging well, he only had enough mana for two teleports and needed to save some for his only damage skill, Spatial Cut. Once he teleported, Yang Ye, a level 20 warrior, could charge over, and then he would either attack or dodge again, but attacking would leave him without mana to dodge, and dodging would leave him without mana to attack...

"Alright, you win, hehe, let's cooperate for now, see how pleasant it is to level up, oh, I'm level 27! Damn, you've been level 27 for a while?" I Eat Peaches cleverly changed the topic.

"Yep, one more level, let's go."

"Where to?"

"Find your master."

"Damn, you really want to go? Don't blame me if you get beaten!"

I Eat Peaches' master, the one who helped him switch to a hidden class, was someone Yang Ye wanted to meet, to see if there was anything that could trigger a hidden class for him.

"His one hidden class is already awesome, where would there be two?"

"Just a try, it won't cost you anything, stop talking so much."

"Alright, alright, I'm afraid of you, I'll take you, okay?"

The two continued to chat, killing monsters, and their levels soared. By 1:00 PM, Yang Ye had been online for over ten hours, and although leveling up was intense, he decided to eat first.

He told Peaches, and they both logged off to eat, agreeing to continue leveling up at 2:00 PM, and not to log off until they reached level 28!

He ate alone at a small restaurant, and when he returned, he received a text from the bank, 800,000 cash had arrived! Yang Ye laughed out loud, his drowsiness instantly reduced by half, and he logged back in with renewed energy.

Just as he logged in, he found that I Eat Peaches was already there, idly pulling a level 28 monster. Seeing Yang Ye finally log in, he immediately shouted, "Damn, Promise, you're so slow, just eating a meal, do you need to go grocery shopping and cook too?"

"Shut up, let's go level up, faster, level 29 monsters."

Level 30 monsters and level 29 monsters were in different tiers. The latter was designed for level 30 players with level 30 equipment, with a significant increase in difficulty, so it was more efficient to level up with level 29 monsters.

The two went to the level 29 monster area, where there were already many people. Leveling from 29 to 30 was very difficult, with experience points increasing several times, so while Yang Ye and the others were almost level 28, no one on the leaderboard had reached level 30 yet.

Yang Ye led Lilianna to pull monsters, while I Eat Peaches waited in place, using Spatial Cut continuously as the monsters came, making the process very efficient.

Such high-efficiency monster killing naturally caught the attention of the surrounding players—

"Look at that warrior, isn't he familiar?"

"Sure... I've seen him before, the girl next to him, oh? She's not a player, she's an NPC!"

"Damn, I remember, it's the Battle of Promise!"

"Damn, it's the great Promise? Then that girl must be the first follower to appear? What a freak!"

"Then the weapon in his hand must be the first Spirit-level weapon? Damn, it even glows! So cool!"

"Damn, he pulls monsters so well! Damn, captain, our area's monsters are being taken over!!"

...

In an instant, everyone stopped paying attention to Yang Ye and started fighting over the monsters...

Because of Yang Ye's arrival, this area became very lively, with the regional chat channel constantly discussing him, and even some players directly requesting to join his team.

Yang Ye ignored them, continuously pulling monsters, and after two hours, both of them were level 28.

"Let's go find your master. Let's see if we can try." Yang Ye said.

"Okay, let's go."

...

I Eat Peaches led Yang Ye to a forest, located not far west of Rainfall City. The forest was large, a high-level monster area.

Then they started looking for the master... Yes, they were really looking... aimlessly...

After ten minutes, Yang Ye was grinding his spirit sword, his tone vicious, "Peaches, if you don't take me in, I'll send you back to the city and find him myself!"

I Eat Peaches was also sweating, but he seemed very patient, continuing to search while comforting Yang Ye, "Young man, don't be impatient, a Temporal Mage, if his lair is easily invaded, where would his dignity be? Right? My master said, if it's meant to be, it will happen... Oh, found it." I Eat Peaches suddenly called out happily.

Yang Ye's spirits lifted, finally found? If it weren't for the miner's hat, he would have PKed this guy on the spot!

"Where, where, let me see." Yang Ye ran over, and the miner's hat finally showed the long-awaited attribute:

—Entrance to the lair of the Temporal Mage - Absolute (nearby time-space magic can also quickly summon it).

"See, I told you to be patient!" I Eat Peaches said proudly.

Yang Ye would have been fine if he hadn't seen the last part, but seeing it, he wanted to strangle this fool! But, hehe, I won't say it, I'll let you find your own death later.

"Stop being cocky, we've been looking for so long, let's go in, let's go in!"

"Wait, wait... I'll go in first... Damn!"

...

The lair of the Temporal Mage - Absolute was not as magnificent as imagined, or filled with magical arrays. It was a very ordinary space: a small hill, an old tree on the hill, a small wooden house under the tree, a fence around the house, vegetables planted inside the fence, flowers and grass outside the fence, and a small stream beyond.

As soon as they entered, I Eat Peaches immediately became active, jumping and shouting, "Master, master, I'm back!!"

At this moment, an old man came out of the wooden house, with white hair and a gray robe, leaning on a cane, seemingly very old but moving quite nimbly. Hearing I Eat Peaches' shout, he pretended to be angry, "Brat, what are you
