My Wife Is The Big Boss

Chapter 18: You Are Devils

Fang Leng didn't know where to start complaining. A pharmacist who couldn't use a sword wasn't a good caretaker, right?

However, Fang Leng wouldn't let the girl protect him while he sat comfortably in the back watching. Since Tang Ning'er was confident in her swordsmanship, he just handed her the sword.

After all, Fang Leng was a powerhouse in all three disciplines.

Even without a sword, he could still use spells!

As Fang Leng stepped out of the room, he saw two groups of people engaged in a melee. On one side were standing wolves, or werewolves, to be precise. There were only three of them. On the other side were players who had taken on the guarding mission.

The players had the advantage in numbers, but there was a level difference. Fortunately, the players had different professions and all came from the same guild, so their coordination was pretty good.

The archer attracted the werewolves' hatred in the front, while the hunter and the priest provided support from the back. The scholar also stayed in the backline to heal.

Thanks to the buffs the players had received, although they were at a level disadvantage, their damage output against the werewolves was not low.

The one in command was Dynasty Overlord. He was very excited at the moment. The game had only been launched for two days, and he was already experiencing the feeling of teaming up to fight a boss. This feeling was incredibly satisfying!

This was a typical fearless attitude.

The situation was once very tense. However, when Fang Leng and Tang Ning'er appeared, the three werewolves, who had been constantly under attack, simultaneously let out a howl. Their bodies quickly grew in size, their eyes turned red, and they charged straight towards Fang Leng.

The players immediately realized that this was a guarding mission, and the werewolves held an even greater grudge against Scholar Fang and Tang Ning'er. They absolutely couldn't let anything happen to them.

The members of the Dynasty Guild bravely stood in front of the werewolves. The leading werewolf swept its claws, and the four people in front of it all turned into white light and died, only to be resurrected shortly after.

The werewolves suddenly unleashed such high killing power that even Dynasty Overlord felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. At this moment, he also received messages from the players who had been killed.

After resurrection, they couldn't return to Fang Leng's courtyard. The system prompted them that they couldn't enter.

With this, the strategy of using a sea of people was no longer viable.

In the novice stage, death didn't result in level loss. Resurrection only reduced half of their health and imposed a period of weakness. If they could come back, they could still be used as combat power, albeit reluctantly.

Now, it seemed that all hope was lost.

Just when the situation was about to get out of control, Tang Ning'er grabbed a sword and charged towards the enemy with her rooster.

Dynasty Overlord was about to vomit blood. What the hell, does this person being protected have no self-awareness at all? Are they going up there to offer their heads?

But the development of the story exceeded their expectations. The leading werewolf, who had been displaying its ferocity just moments ago, was shot dead by Han Yan's arrow.

Han Yan delivered a fatal blow, and with the bonus from the title "Wolf Slayer," it dealt a critical hit of 999. The wolf didn't even have time to react. Wait, something's not right. I just showed up and it's already over?

Tang Ning'er, on the other hand, slashed down another werewolf with her sword, and Da Hong, the rooster, launched a fierce attack, pecking the last werewolf to death.

The battle ended too quickly, giving people a dreamlike feeling.

But Fang Leng wasn't surprised.

When the NPCs detected the werewolves, their attack power would increase, but they were also very fragile when attacked by NPCs and could be killed quickly. He just didn't expect Tang Ning'er's attack power to be so high. He had thought there would be some difficulty.

Using NPCs to kill the werewolves was the only way he had designed for players to pass this stage. If it wasn't set up this way, the village would be filled with level 20+ boss monsters, including a higher-level wolf king. How could players possibly win?

But if the players weren't present, the NPCs couldn't kill the werewolves no matter what. They could only be killed by the werewolves.

That's why Fang Leng had brought these people to protect them.

The main force doesn't need them, but they must be present.

As for Han Yan killing one with a single arrow, that's because of her title "Wolf Slayer". If it were another player, they wouldn't be able to defeat the werewolves before the village turned into a dungeon.

Fang Leng knows the reason behind it, but others don't, especially Dynasty Overlord. It's really awkward for him now.

Just think about it, their people were killed instantly by the werewolves, while others easily killed the werewolves. It's really embarrassing to talk about it.

However, at this moment, no one is mocking him. Fang Leng says to them, "Thank you for your protection. It should be safe tonight. I don't have anything to give you, but there might be something on the werewolf's body. You can go check it out."

Killing monsters can drop equipment. During the day, the werewolves don't drop anything because it's considered a plot kill. You can only find things on her body, but no other equipment will drop. However, it's different at night.

Fang Leng has already seen some things shining with blue light.

But he remembers that he is an NPC. Can NPCs see the equipment dropped by bosses?

He doesn't know if other NPCs can see it. When they were designing the game, they didn't consider the feelings of NPCs. So, he should downplay his presence to avoid exposure.

As for a few pieces of blue equipment, Fang Leng doesn't really care.

As the main planner, he doesn't remember every little encounter. His main responsibility is plot planning. It's strange that other planners in other companies consider how to entice players to spend money, but Fang Leng's company doesn't have that requirement. They just want Fang Leng to plan the plot well.

Because of this, Fang Leng remembers most of the settings, except for some small details that may have been overlooked.

So, Fang Leng has already figured out how to obtain treasures that are useful to him. He has plenty of opportunities to gather a set of Divine Weapons. There's no need to compete with players for these small gains.

However, Dynasty Overlord and Han Yan are both very happy. This is the first time they've obtained blue equipment!

There are seven blue equipment pieces on the ground. They've hit the jackpot!

Fang Leng is ready to return to his room, but Tang Ning'er suddenly says, "I really like this fan. Can I have it?"

Huh? Fang Leng looks at Tang Ning'er in surprise. He sees Tang Ning'er picking up a fan that is shining with blue light. Once the fan is in Tang Ning'er's hands, it stops shining.

Han Yan and Dynasty Overlord are a bit confused. Can NPCs now snatch equipment dropped by players?

But since Tang Ning'er killed two of the three wolves, they can't refuse her request for one.

The key now is how to divide the remaining items.

Seeing Han Yan and Dynasty Overlord nodding, Tang Ning'er walks up to Fang Leng with a smile on her face and says, "Brother Xiao Fang, I'm giving you this fan. It will definitely look good on you."

So, this is for him...

Fang Leng can't help but be stunned for a moment, then he smiles slightly and says, "Thank you, I really like it."

The fan is just an ordinary fan, but Fang Leng really likes the thoughtfulness behind Tang Ning'er's gift.

Fang Leng, who has never been in a romantic relationship, finally feels something filling his heart.

Watching this scene, Han Yan, Dynasty Overlord, and several players from the Dynasty Guild all have a face full of frustration.

It's bad enough that you NPCs are snatching our equipment, but now you're also showing off your love and torturing us single players. Are you devils?
