…
Bangalash was a World Boss, and only the first clear could bestow the additional bonus.
Stranglethorn Vale Camp. After the resurrection, Baili Xuanyuan looked at the System Announcement without any frustration. He played with the rings on his hand just like he always did and smiled.
Wei Lu resurrected too, and she stared at the front blindly. Out of sudden, she started crying. “My rare mount! My Tiger King! Xuanyuan, you have to compensate me! QAQ…”
Looking at the weeping beauty who was tugging on his arm, Baili Xuanyuan smilingly pinched her face and said softly, “Get lost, you have three seconds.”
Wei Lu quickly let go of his hand and noticed an unusual smile on his lip. She sensed the danger and quickly backed off and used the returning scroll.
Successful people all had their own quirks. That was exactly the case for Baili Xuanyuan. He had a special way to be angry. He would be very gentle and polite. He would be extremely calm, but with a devil smile on his face. He said in a calm voice, “Wudi, check this man up. In real life too.”
“No problem, Boss.”
“Oh yeah, help me call my dear nephew. I’m in a bad mood, and I need to scold him.”
“No… problem Boss.”

After level 20, the leveling EXP became higher and higher. EXP from Level 20 to Level 21 was enough for players to level up from 1 to 15. The experience of killing Tiger King Bangalash only increased the experience bar by 5%.
Looking at the corpse of the Tiger King on the ground, Lin Jie rubbed his hand and started looting!
—”You received [Complete Tiger King’s Heart].”
—”You received [Torn Tiger’s Bone].”
—”You received [Rotten Tiger’s Eye].”
—”You received [Mount: Tiger King].”
Lin Jie looked at the Mount icon and put the Tiger King into the slot. The silent forest started to make a hollow sound. After the Tiger King was killed, the Stranglethorn Vale was about to refresh!
[Mount: Tiger King Bangalash]
Type: Beast
Attributes: Armor Ignore 3%
Movement Speed: 180%
Additional effect: Rush! Increase movement speed by 50% shortly for 10 seconds. Cooldown: 1 hour. The skill can only be used on mount.
“Summon! Tiger King!”
With a wave of his right hand, an array was drawn, and a white tiger with black stripes appeared! It was three meters tall with a powerful-looking body. It had sharp claws and two saber teeth! This was a Tiger King mount!
As a mount, Tiger King had a saddle on it.
Lin Jie leaped onto it. “Let’s go!”
ROAR—
Tiger King roared and leaped out of the forest. When it landed, multiple tigers that had just spawned were shocked to the ground. Although it was a mount now, the Tiger King was still fearsome to those beasts.
Before the second Tiger King respawned, it was still the king!
With Lin Jie’s command, the Tiger King started running freely in the forest! It was indeed faster on a mount than walking. Tiger King had very fast speed to begin with, coupled with the fear that the rest of the beast still had, no monsters would go up against them even in the Stranglethorn Vale which was a level 30 map. With the Tiger King mount, Lin Jie ran in the forest without restraint and sometimes bent over to pick up some herbs.
“Wu— Wu—”
Not far away, a grey gorilla was playing with a gigantic tree. It was one of the Beast Kings in Stranglethorn Vale, Mukla. It was a rare mount too. Unlike fast-moving mount Bangalash, Mukla only had a moving speed of 80%, which was slower than normal walking! But it had a special skill, Climb! It could climb up to the steep cliff and reach places where normal people could not go.
However, Lin Jie had no interest in messing around with this big guy. Unlike Tiger King, Mukla did not like to fight alone. The banana tree that it was playing with was his strongest weapon. When he threw out a banana, countless monkeys and chimps would rush out from all over Stranglethorn Vale and fight alongside it.
Attribute-wise, Mukla was the weakest of all, but it was the most difficult to deal with.
“Big guy, let’s go.” Tiger King roared with Lin Jie’s command and ran off.
After touring the Stranglethorn Vale for a round, Lin Jie still did not find the NPC he wanted. He gave a thought about it and decided to return to the players camp in City of Light.
At this moment, how many players were level 20? The only class that could ride a mount was Forward Charge Paladin, and most of them were still riding a white pony. Some richer players would be riding a warhorse. But who could be riding a tiger?
When Lin Jie appeared in the teleportation circle, the crowd of players was shocked!
Lin Jie’s equipment was heavy and mysterious to most people. He appeared to be more powerful when he was riding the Tiger King. Many people started to think that the Boss which attacked the town was respawned when Lin Jie was moving around.
Not far away, a Forward Charge Paladin was riding his little blue pony with a cute girl. His small face was full of anthomaniac. After being chased away by Baili Xuanyuan, Wei Lu casually hooked up with one of his subordinates. Although he was useless, he had a rare blue-flame warhorse. Wei Lu fell in love with it at first sight, with her beautiful outlook, it was not a difficult task to make it her own.
Right then, a tiger landed from the sky! It had gorgeous fur and powerful-looking body. The blue pony tripped and fell when the tiger roared at it. The players on the horse dropped on the ground while the tiger and Lin Jie left.
“My… my Tiger King,” said Wei Lu softly while looking at the disappearing mount.
The appearance of the Tiger King mount set off a discussion boom in an instant. This upsurge was so intense that it even overwhelmed the dungeon-group! Tiger mount! Who did not want such a domineering mount? Let alone the additional attributes, it was something that men must fight for just for the look of it!
“Tiger mount acquisition method exclusively announced!”
“100% to get tiger mount, Ailu explain for you!”
“Ningbo pig breeder brings you boar mounts that are stronger than tigers!”
“Dayum, the tiger mount is so cool. I could have any girl I want with that!”
“Curse that guy… I was riding my little pony loitering around when that tiger roared. The pony fell right away and could not move for some time.”
“I have all the money in the world. I’m buying that tiger mount for 20 million. Can the owner contact me please!”
—————
“Baili Xuanyuan’s endurance is good.” Lin Jie had been running in the City of Light for at least half an hour, and Baili did not make a move at all. “C’ mon, I stole you, Boss, at least come and be salty about it?”
Lin Jie felt sad when he was ignored like this.
Luckily, it was not a vain effort. At least pretenders like Domestic Fat Cattle spotted Lin Jie right away.
“Bro Fu Sheng… Bah! Mr. Fu Sheng. Please tell me how to catch that tiger! I’ve been single for decades! If I were to have that big guy, girls would be hitting on me all the time!” cried Fat Cattle with an incredibly loud voice.
Lin Jie was straightforward too and sent him the spawn spot and time for Tiger King Bangalash. He told him about some box out spots which were helpful in dodging the attacks of Tiger King. It was not difficult to kill it with these tips, and that was why Lin Jie dared to go alone.
Domestic Fat Cattle was shocked. “Really? The official site says that there were millions of players searching for the strategy and the price was tens of thousand!”
Lin Jie smiled and said, “That’s why you gotta hurry up. By the way, Tiger King has a long spawn time. You could catch some normal tigers too if you want, but you have to wait until level 20 and with the help of a Pet Hunter.”
“Sure! I’ll go leveling with Camel! Camel! Camel! Come with me later, we will go leveling. What? Why are you following us, Childe? I could ignore you for pretending to be healers with the bandages in hand, but you want to trick me into thinking that you are a Pet Hunter with a dead cockroach? Do you think I’m stupid?”
Lin Jie kept the Tiger King and looked at his back. It was empty.
“Bandits, huh?” Lin Jie smiled and entered the Potions Shops. The moment he entered it, he changed an outfit and came out. With the restriction of the vision, it was as though two people were entering and leaving at the same time.
He got rid of the bandits easily and received a message.
“Bro, it’s me. Wanna have a drink? I’m having a bad day.”
