Chapter 1164: Exquisite Recipes

The friend he was referring to was obviously Sesame Rice Ball.

He received Lu Li’s message while he was levelling up and was asked to meet up at the Exchange Hall in Stormwind.

After a few minutes, Sesame Rice Ball arrived. Teleportation Portals really shortened the travel time for players. However, in a few months, these portals would be removed and the only way players could travel quickly from place to place was via mounts. In his past life, Lu Li would often hear about the veteran players complaining and reminiscing on the good old days with portals.

However, it would be absurd for the gaming company to expect players to travel the vast world of Azeroth on foot.

There would be many Fly Points added in the main cities that used mounts such as Gryphons, Hippogryphs, Wyverns, Rylaks, Fey Dragons, and Pterrodaxes to allow zone-to-zone transportation for the players.

There would also be Teleportation services in the future that Mages offered in exchange for money.

Sesame Rice Ball saw Lu Li with a little girl that wasn’t Lu Xin and became very suspicious.

“Rice Ball, over here!” Lu Li saw him and waved at him.

“Who’s this?” Sesame Rice Ball asked, then before Lu Li could answer, he said added, “Boss, I think you’re a decent man. Even though you’re out of Water Fairy’s league, she still chose you over her other admirers. How can you do such a thing to her?”

“What the hell are you on about?” Lu Li wondered if Sesame Rice Ball was delusional. He pointed at Cold Chill and explained, “This is my pupil.”

“Sorry, my bad,” Sesame Rice Ball apologized as he scratched his head, then said, “Where did you find such a silly looking pupil?”

“You’re silly, you twig.”

Cold Chill never thought of herself as a silly or stupid person. She had memorized thousands of herbs and could even recite their individual uses and effects. She could treat diseases and symptoms and could even tell the difference between herbs by smell.

She was a genius in what she did, yet she was called stupid by a random person she had just met.

Sesame Rice Ball was furious that the little girl called him a twig.

Lu Li was starting to get a headache and stopped the two of them

“Okay, stop fighting. This is Sesame Rice Ball, a master Alchemist in our guild who has learnt more than ten Exquisite Recipes and is currently the best Alchemist in the game.

“Oh, he’s an Alchemist?”

Cold Chill had a bad impression of him because he didn’t seem very manly. However, upon hearing that he was one of the best Alchemists in the game, she began to pay him more respect.

“What? Do I not look it?” Sesame Rice Ball asked as he flicked his cape and showed off the ruby-embroidered staff.

“Not really. Aare you a Mage? What level are you?” Cold Chill could not take her eyes off his gear.

There were some pieces that she had never seen before, but it was obvious that his gear was quite extraordinary. He managed to gather so many powerful pieces of equipment while becoming one of the best Alchemist at the same time. It appeared as though Cold Chill had really underestimated this skinny and weak-looking man.

“I’m a level 56 Warlock,” Sesame Rice Ball said calmly, trying very hard to hide his cockiness.

“What level are you, teacher?” Cold Chill turned around and asked.

“55.” Lu Li wasn’t ashamed at all. He used to be rank number one, but had been caught up with some annoying quests recently, as well as some tournaments, which was why he couldn’t keep up with Sesame Rice Ball who spent his entire day training.

The Level Ranking was no longer dominated by Lu Li’s mercenary group. Besides the two Mages from Ruling Sword, the rest of the rankings were filled with non-professional players from Glory Capital and other major guilds.

Cold Chill was even more impressed with Sesame Rice Ball now and decided to idolize him.

“Sorry, I won’t call you a twig anymore. You’re so good!”

Throughout her time playing, she would often hear people talk about the famous Lu Li and the incredible things he had achieved in this game. If Sesame Rice Ball was even higher level than Lu Li, then he was obviously even more incredible.

“Cough cough, alright, alright.”

Sesame Rice Ball was blushing when he was complemented.

“Rice Ball, you have some Exquisite Recipes, right?” Lu Li asked.

“I put some in the Guild Storage before, but I still have ten or so recipes. I’ll go get them if you need.” Sesame Rice Ball was straight to the point and he went to retrieve some recipes from his personal storage.

The Xin Xin Mercenary group would often give their Exquisite Alchemy Recipes to Sesame Rice Ball, especially Hachi Chan, who had the best luck in the game.

Sometimes, other players from the guild would give him recipes in exchange for special potions.

“Why doesn’t he learn the recipes if he has them?” Cold Chill was confused.

“Because he has to dungeon with us while grinding levels to keep up with other players. He barely has any time to practice Alchemy, which is why we’re giving you these recipes so that you can craft them for us in the future,” Lu Li explained.

“Are these recipes worth a lot of money?” Cold Chill couldn’t hide her excitement.

“Probably. As long as you have the time, you’ll make heaps of money.”

Lu Li patted her on the head; the little girl was completely obsessed about money.

Sesame Rice Ball returned quickly and brought with him 17 Exquisite Recipes. The ones he brought were all rare recipes that less than half the Alchemists in the game would have. In reality, Sesame Rice Ball only kept the rare ones and the common ones were all thrown into the Guild Storage.

“Are you sure you want to give all of these to her?” Sesame Rice Ball private messaged Lu Li.

“Yep.”

“Boss, why are you doing this? These recipes are worth thousands and thousands of gold.” Sesame Rice Ball thought that Lu Li was insane.

Lu Li explained Cold Chill’s family background in traditional Chinese medicine. He explained that he had very high hopes for her and knew that she would do well in Alchemy based on his observation of her in the past few days.
