《MMORPG: Martial Gamer》Chapter 1529. Old Tortoise Anthun

“Can, of course can!” Golden Young Dragon nodded happily as he couldn’t wait for this bunch of players to leave.
Fortunately, for the Golden Young Dragon, he merely faced a bunch of honest players like Prairie Fire. If Fearless was here, the dragon might have to be stripped off and left with underwear.
Wang Yu had been playing the game with Fearless for quite some time now. Naturally, he would have learnt a few tips and tricks from him.
At a time like this, why would he leave just because he was ‘allowed’ to?
Of course, Wang Yu was not the type of person to blackmail for equipment. Instead, he looked worryingly at the lake in front of him, “This lake is rather huge. I wonder how much time it’ll take for me to swim across.”
In the game, the swimming speed of a player was at least one-fold slower than running on land. Wang Yu knew how to fly so he wasn’t worried but Prairie Fire and the ladies might spend quite a bit of time if they were to swim over.
“This… Indeed… pretty huge.” Golden Young Dragon nodded and agreed with Wang Yu as he turned to look at the lake.
“Do you want to give us a lift?” A cheerful Wang Yu smiled.
“Hey! Old Bull, I think you’re pushing it too far.” Prairie Fire, who stood by the side, sympathised with Golden Young Dragon. This was the most pathetic BOSS he had ever seen. Not only was he beaten up so badly that he pleaded for mercy, Wang Yu still wanted to treat him like a slave…
“This isn’t appropriate, right?”
Golden Young Dragon was slightly troubled, “I am from the mighty golden bloodline.”
The Dragon Race always had plenty of customs which made it difficult for ordinary humans to ride a dragon. Furthermore, Golden Young Dragon was of a royal bloodline so how could he lift his head up as a mighty dragon if rumours spread that some random humans rode him?

“Then there is no other choice!” Wang Yu waved his hands, “It seems like we won’t be able to leave for about an hour. Think of an idea.”
“This…” Golden Young Dragon was also helpless as he sighed and asked, “Uncle, do you have money?”
“Why? You want to take my money just because I didn’t take any from you?” Wang Yu furrowed his brows and asked.
“No, no!” Golden Young Dragon hurriedly explained himself, “This is a rule…”
“Alright then!” Wang Yu was not an unreasonable person and he also knew that there were a lot of rules that NPC in the games had to follow. Therefore, he took out one gold coin and stuffed it into Golden Young Dragon’s claw.
Golden Young Dragon looked awkwardly at the one gold coin as he looked back at Wang Yu. On the verge of tears, he had no choice but to roar towards the lake.
At this moment, rumbles were all over the surface of the lake and a small island emerged.
When the small island fully emerged out of the water, Wang Yu and the others couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
Damn it! How is this a small island? This is actually a massive tortoise.
“Honourable Tigris, what can I do for you?” After that old tortoise emerged from the waters, he asked slowly.
Golden Young Dragon handed one gold coin towards the old tortoise and said, “Bring them over to the opposite shore.”
“Just one gold coin?” The old tortoise curled his lips, “Even though I, Anthun, am trapped in Dragon Island, I still have my pride. You’re trying to buy me off with just one gold coin? And for so many of them?”
“So how much do you want?” Golden Young Dragon pointed at Wang Yu, “They only gave me one gold coin and I have given everything to you.”

“Oh?” Anthun turned to size Wang Yu before asking with shock, “You’re Martial God?”
“That’s over complimenting me! I am not a god, merely a Martial Artist!” Wang Yu replied humbly.
“So you’re not him…”
Anthun muttered to himself before responding, “Since you’re his descendant, you are qualified for Old Servant to give you a lift. Come, all of you hop on.”
Anthun approached the shore and as much as he looked desperate to get on land, he did not.
“You cannot come onshore?” a curious Wang Yu asked.
Tortoise should logically be able to move on both land and water.
“I’m ashamed of myself!” Anthun said depressingly, “Old servant has been trapped here for so many years but this is only the second time I’ve come across humans.”
“Second time?” Prairie Fire asked, “Does that mean someone else has been here?”
“Not too long before you guys!” Anthun said, “Honourable Tigris was struck down by them into the water so badly that he dared not come out.”
“…”
Once they heard this, everyone turned to look at Golden Young Dragon again.
Who would have thought that this fella could be this unfortunate?!
Golden Young Dragon was flustered and exasperated, “Anthun, you old heck! Can you not talk so much?”
“Haha!” Anthun laughed out loud, “Honourable Tigris is more unlucky today… 12 of his guards were all killed.”
“Do you believe I can get someone to kill you if you keep talking?” Golden Young Dragon threatened.
“Hurry up then! Kill me fast and I can respawn fast! Do you really think I want to stay here?” Anthun looked unconcerned.
“Tsk! I will not fall for your trick!” Golden Young Dragon turned around and no longer cared about Anthun.
“This is bad!” At this moment, Prairie Fire suddenly clapped his hand, “Don’t tell me that group of players went to Giant Dragon Castle too?”
“That’s right! How did you know?” Anthun questioned.
“Hurry, hurry, hurry!” Prairie Fire hurriedly jumped on Anthun back and urged the others, “Hurry up… We might be too late if we don’t hurry!”
“Don’t worry. They are swimming over…” The old tortoise Anthun was still not anxious.
Prairie Fire took out a bag of gold and placed it on Anthun’s shell, “One thousand gold! Mister, I’m begging you to go faster!”
“Haha! What an obedient kid!”
Anthun chuckled as he started swimming towards the opposite end.
…
It was reasonable for Prairie Fire to be anxious. As an experienced player, he knew just what the designers were up to.
Why would they randomly allow two squads over to Giant Dragon Castle? If his guess was right, this would most likely be a competing clash quest.
If it was any ordinary clash quest, they wouldn’t be this worried. However, they were this worried because this was a first-come-first-served quest.
According to Anthun, the earlier group of players had already made their way over. If they didn’t hurry, wouldn’t the quest be snatched away from them?
Even though Anthun looked like a slow-moving tortoise, he could swim pretty fast and it didn’t take long for them to arrive at the opposite shore.
“Hehe! Fast, right?” After letting everyone down, Anthun chuckled, “Remember to find me again when you want to head back. I can go faster with even more money.”
“I would rather die back!”
Prairie Fire continued to curse and scold…
Anthun did not bother about their cursing as he turned to Wang Yu, “Honourable Martial Artist, I am very honoured to be able to give you a lift.”
“Don’t mention it!” Wang Yu hurriedly waved his hands humbly.
“Haha!” Anthun smiled and asked, “I wonder if the honourable Martial Artist lacks an entourage?”

The Power of Ten: Book One: Sama Rantha, and Book Two: The Far Future
(Author's Note: If you're wondering about the views, it's +1.8 million more on Webnovel, its original home. Updated daily starting Dec. 26, 2018, and continued with Book Three.) Some time ago, a planes-traveling archmage made up a video game to train some people on the planet Earth for the catastrophe he knew was coming. That game was the Power of Ten. The gods seized this opportunity to take the templates of some of those characters, and even their souls, for use in other worlds, and other realms. Sama Rantha is one of those characters, and is going to find out that being a Hagchild and having to survive after your Hag Curse fails to murder you at birth is much, much less fun than setting it as your Race at level One on a gamescreen. Join Sama Rantha on her Road to Ten, and letting her Hagmother know exactly what she thinks of her... ------ Warning: This book starts with a HARD OPEN! It was written as an extension of other stories that have not made it onto the Internet yet for National Novel Writing Month in Nov/2018. Book One/Sama Rantha: A traditionalist LitRPG in the fantasy world vein. The beginning chapters will be heavy with gaming terms and the supporting math as Sama exploits the rules as much as possible, minmaxing her heart out to get one up on the world trying to kill her. The math and rules lawyering tapers off, but are never eliminated, as Sama is going to do everything she can to exploit the rules of reality here and not die, while making sure those responsible for this get exactly what is coming to them... ------ Book Two, The Far Future (starting Ch. 286): The Warp, the final frontier; in the grim darkness of a galaxy far far away, there came a hagchild...QX! Sci-fi/Fantasy/psionics mashup, grimbright clashing with grimdark! Sama is sent into a setting she'd rather not be in, but the heart of a powergamer never says no, even in the crapsack galaxy of the Tellurian Empire. BOOK TWO IS COMPLETE WITH 357 CHAPTERS AS OF 9/2020. ----------- Book Three (updating daily): The Human Race (next Book!) - Urban Fantasy world. Three Power of Ten gamers come together in a world under the Shroud of the Cancer of Death. Whatever might happen when they do, and what might they find there? Book Three is complete with 500 chapters: right here. Book Four: Power of Ten is dumped into the Marvel Universe. Surely there'll be no changes to canon when that happens? A Fanfiction variant, with teeth! Dynamo The Original Sama Stories: Being posted at: over in this location. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Discord link: in zis location is always up if I'm online.

Re: (Union//Incarnation)
Two years ago, a meteor fell and decimated the southeastern lands of Gaia, turning them into wastelands constantly shrouded in white fog. None of those who saw the blazing calamity with their own eyes lived to tell the tale, and those who attempted to venture in never came back. Since then, towers, caverns, and ruins have appeared and disappeared without a pattern. Those who were brave enough to venture in were rewarded with a partner capable of defying the natural laws as humanity knows it. People started to call them ‘Incarnation’, and before long, more and more Incarnation were gathered and sold as commodity, especially after a billionaire has sponsored a fighting tournament offering cash prizes to those possessing the strongest Incarnation, spurring the greedy and desperate to hunt for the fabled creatures at the cost of their lives. Claire Saphira wanted none of that. She simply wished for a life where she could live without worry of her own survival. As she ran from the debt collectors for the umpteenth time, she was swallowed by an errant tower, where she saw a frail, pale-skinned girl with ashen hair hung by chains. It was a chance, a chance to participate in the tournament and live without worrying about survival. Yet, something nagged in the back of her mind. Why did she look so familiar? Planned release schedule: One chapter every day for Mon-Fri, and a break on Sat-Sun. The release will slow down at some point, but most likely won't go under 3 chapters a week.
