The office on the third floor of the Intelligence Group.
The woman in black OL outfit put down the document in her hand and rubbed her eyebrows.
"The competition for the position of the eleventh disciple has become fierce, causing the New World to move more frequently recently."
"Fortunately, Wencheng is only a second-tier city and has been less affected. Compared with the Tianpu team in the provincial capital Hangcheng, my place is quite peaceful."
After Li Xingyue finished handling the official duties at hand, she picked up her mobile phone and clicked on "The Book of Salvation".
【……】
[You step forward and touch the resting book page...]
【You have new mail to check, do you want to open it?】
Li Xingyue raised her eyebrows and opened the letter.
The sender is the 'Swordsmith'. There is not a single word written in the letter, but it does contain attachments.
[The lens of the deranged monster (epic prop)*1]
There was a hint of smile in her eyes and she put away the divine props.
"This guy……"
------------------
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ takes you slowly down to the bottom of the abyss. 】
[You vaguely see a faint warm light in the boundless darkness in the distance.]
[After repeated defeats, you understand in your heart that this is the method of the 'ancient abyss demon - the black thorn demon' to lure food. 】
【What should you do?】
Lin Xun smiled coldly and ignored the options given by the underworld game.
After 12 hours of anti-addiction, he has reshaped the giant of the earth.
[You open a pale eye...]
[Special skill ‘Weakness Insight’ is activated! 】
[Your knowledge is not as good as the enemy, the judgment is in progress...]
[The judgment is successful, you have successfully understood the weakness of the ‘Black Thorn Demon’. 】
[Your next attack will have a high probability of hitting the enemy's weakness!]
[Your special gaze seems to have attracted the attention of the ancient demon. It carefully wrapped the red spots on its belly with four huge black wings, twisted its huge snake-shaped body, and approached you...]
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ flapped her wings and flew into the air. She pulled her long bow and frequently fired arrows at the warm light in the darkness. 】
[‘Black Thorn Demon’ ignores the pain of the arrow piercing his body and speeds up to attack you...]
Lin Xun had long known that the Black Thorn Demon would attack him at all costs.
Everything was within expectations.
[You are possessed by the body of the ‘Sunken Ancient Theater Dancer’! 】
[You take smart dance steps, and your figure gradually disappears into the darkness...]
[The devil's weird human face showed a mocking look, it lowered its head and jerked forward, kicking up a large area of black sludge. 】
[You were unable to dodge the dense rain of mud dots, and were showered all over your body. Suddenly, black mud dots floated in the air in extremely weird ways. 】
[The strange face of the ‘Black Thorn Demon’ approaches you, the warm light illuminates your surroundings, and your figure gradually appears. 】
【Your invisibility has been revealed!】
[The demon’s humanoid face lets out a hoarse and weird laugh, seeming to be laughing at your overestimation of your abilities.]
[You suddenly opened a pair of dark eyes and started dancing again!]
[Your body skill ‘Blood Shadow Dance’ benefits from the bonus of ‘Dark Shadow’, and the concealment effect is greatly improved! 】
[Darkness is like your coat, and shadow is your armor! In the dark underground abyss, your figure is silently hidden. 】
[The 'Black Thorn Demon' suddenly let out a roar and rushed towards the place where your figure disappeared. The smelly mud splashed everywhere, but you, who were invisible, had already strolled behind it. 】
[The ancient demon kept swaying its tail and head, launching attacks around it indiscriminately, stirring up patches of black mud.]
[The mud that falls on you can’t expose your flaws again.]
[The ‘Black Thorn Demon’ has been furious for a long time, but still can’t force you out. 】
[Under the constant shooting of the ‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’, its body was covered with blood holes that were penetrated. 】
[The ancient demon finally couldn't bear it anymore. It flapped its four giant wings, and a roaring hurricane rolled up throughout the underground abyss. 】
[Its huge body rose into the air and quickly attacked the Valkyrie in mid-air.]
[The ‘Black Thorn Demon’ flying into the air completely exposed the fatal weakness on its belly. 】
Lin Xun finally waited for this moment.
It's now!
[You are possessed by the body of the ‘President of the Knowledge-Seeking Direct Gaze Association’! 】
[You raise your staff and recite the incantation silently...]
[The ‘Black Thorn Demon’ chasing the Valkyrie in the air was not completely distracted. It noticed you who suddenly appeared and recited a spell. 】
[The ancient demon roared, gave up chasing the approaching Valkyrie, flapped its giant wings, turned around and charged towards you!]
[You continue to chant the spell, opening a pink eye on your face...]
[The special skill ‘Happy Smoke Vision’ is activated! 】
[The flapping wings of the 'Black Thorn Demon' suddenly stiffened, and the huge body fell straight from the sky...]
[In the loud noise, countless black mud splashed up, and in the huge pits and depressions, the red spots on the huge body were extremely eye-catching. 】
[You raise your hand, and the ‘Pre-stored Spell Ring’ shines. 】
[Dense pure white characters appear, then are annihilated, and a dazzling bright light erupts! 】
[The ‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ in the sky used the light to draw out a thick arrow and drew the bow like a full moon.]
[With a flash of white light, a meteor-like arrow, carrying the shadow of a giant dragon, shoots towards the red spot! 】
[You pronounce the last syllable of the spell, and endless starlight gathers in front of you...]
[In an instant, starlight blooms on the red spots! 】
[The starlight and the arrow hit the weakness of the 'Black Thorn Demon' together, and the demon's huge body broke from it, and blood surged out...]
[Its two bodies are still twisting, but the eyes on its heads have dimmed.]
[You defeated the ‘Ancient Abyss Demon—Black Thorn Demon’, and your experience value increased tremendously! 】
[The power within the body begins to boil, and the body level of the ‘President of the Knowledge-Seeking Direct Gaze Association’ increases. The current body level is: 55]
[You have obtained ‘a small piece of spirituality of enlightenment’*2]
[You have obtained the ‘complete forging crystal block’*1]
[You have obtained the ‘Black Thorn Demon’s Spine’ (material)]
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! [You have obtained the ‘Black Thorn Demon’s Fang’ (item)]
[You have obtained the ‘Lantern of the Abyss’ (special equipment)]
Lin Xun breathed a long sigh of relief and felt comfortable all over his body.
After defeating the ancient demon and making him kneel twice in a row, and finally successfully killing the BOSS, he felt an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ lands next to you following the light emitted by the ‘Thunder Dragon Staff Spear’ in your hand.]
[You look at the two corpses that occasionally squirm and twitch...]
['Ancient Abyss Demon - Black Thorn Demon', according to legend, a long time ago, people lived deep underground in order to avoid natural disasters from the outside world. At the end of the cave, terrifying howls often echoed in the abyss. People mistakenly thought that they had offended the underground gods.
So they held live sacrifices on a large scale - throwing their own people into the endless abyss to appease the anger of the underground gods... Perhaps the ugly human face of this demon body was created by devouring too many humans. It died from being hit on its fatal weakness.
laceration injury.]
The devil's body was blown into two pieces by a powerful attack, and it did not meet the requirements for possession, so there was no phase or possession option displayed.
Lin Xun was about to open the inventory to check the loot.
Game text suddenly appears.
[With the death of the ‘Ancient Abyss Demon—Black Thorn Demon’, you feel a faint vibration under your feet.]
[The vibration frequency becomes more and more intensive, and the amplitude also becomes larger.]
[Countless rubble fell from the darkness and fell to the bottom of the abyss. 】
[When you feel the ground shaking, and look at the falling rocks, you understand that a strong earthquake has occurred deep underground.]
[If you continue to stay here, you and the Valkyrie will be buried here.]
[Do you want the ‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ to take you away from here? 】
Lin Xunxin said, isn't this nonsense?
He quickly pressed 'Yes', he didn't want to lose two points of soul strength for no reason.
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ hugs you from behind, flaps its wings, and takes you flying upwards. 】
[You recite the incantation repeatedly and release the ‘light of knowledge’ to illuminate the falling boulders. 】
[While the Valkyrie is carrying you, she still needs to dodge boulders. When she flies to a height of more than a hundred meters above the ground, she cannot continue to climb. 】
[You look up at the seemingly nonexistent cliff in the darkness. You are still tens of thousands of meters away from the starting point of jumping into the abyss. 】
【You understand that only death can bring you back to the starting point of your journey.】
[Are you going to let the ‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ throw you down and fall to your death in the endless darkness of the underground? 】
"It is better to die alone than to die together."
Fortunately, Lin Xun has a scapegoat body.
He switched to the body of the Discipline Knight and pressed 'Yes'.
…
[Ordinary wandering souls are reborn in the Multi-View Association...]
"This BOSS is really disgusting. Even if he dies, he will waste some of my soul strength."
Lin Xun complained silently.
He opened the inventory and came to the exciting stage of checking the loot.
There is no need to go into details about the spirituality dropped first and the ‘complete forging crystal blocks’ that can be used to enhance legendary equipment.
['Black Thorn Demon's Spine' (Material): A spine with black bone spines. The sharp bone spines are an excellent material for forging high-quality weapons. Adding this material during forging will make the finished weapon more lethal.
Power surges.]
The materials dropped by the Blackthorn Demon are not special materials that will necessarily generate special effects.
But judging from the text description, it is also a very high-quality material, and it should be a material specially used for melee weapons.
[‘Black Thorn Demon’s Fang’ (prop): A fang half as long as an arm. The hollow fang is fragile and not suitable for forging artifacts. Its value may lie in the black venom still remaining in the fang. 】
[Using this prop will temporarily add poisonous attributes to your weapons or armor, and the monsters you attack or the monsters that attack you will be infected with poison.]
Lin Xun didn't attach much importance to the effect of poisoning weapons. Instead, it was more interesting to coat the armor with poison to poison the attacking monsters.
"Cooperating with the Blood Ox Warriors is equivalent to turning on the Halo of Thorns, or putting on anti-injury armor."
Lin Xun looked at the last piece of special equipment.
[‘Abyss Lantern’ (special equipment), a lantern made of flesh and blood, emits a warm light. Judging from the shape of the lantern, it seems to be a miniature version of the strange body tissue of the ‘Black Thorn Demon’. 】
[Wearing this equipment will increase the probability of attracting monsters to a certain extent, and can also break some invisibility effects within the light range. 】
Lin Xun smiled slightly.
For others, attracting monsters may be a negative BUFF, but for him, he wishes for more monsters to come and give him experience.
As long as you don't use this equipment against the BOSS...
Moreover, the special equipment also has the effect of breaking the invisibility. Based on this effect alone, the value of this item is extremely high.
Suddenly, Lin Xun's eyes lit up.
"No! This equipment is not for me to use, but for the Valkyrie!"
When encountering brainless monsters like the 'Obfussed Monster', the Valkyrie can also step forward to contain and output, providing the Master with space to cast spells.
But when encountering a monster with a flexible mind like the 'Black Thorn Demon', diversionary tactics are not easy to use.
Letting the Valkyrie wear this equipment may solve similar problems.
He summoned the Valkyrie and tried to move the 'Lantern of the Abyss' into the Valkyrie's equipment slot.
As a result, the Valkyrie's "Long Bow of Chanting the Wind and Singing the Moon" was knocked down.
[‘Battle Angel—Valkyrie’ holds a flesh and blood lantern, and the warm light emitted by the light is particularly eye-catching. 】
[Even at noon when there is plenty of light, the light of the lantern is still eye-catching.]
[The Valkyrie waved the lantern blankly twice, as if she couldn’t believe that the lantern could also be used as a weapon.]
"..."
Lin Xun was speechless.
The Valkyrie does not have an inventory like him, and weapons and equipment can be changed at any time.
The longbow is a two-handed weapon. After equipping the 'Lantern of the Abyss', the Valkyrie will naturally not be able to draw the bow and shoot arrows.
"When the Valkyrie is close, I can manually switch her equipment. If we are in combat, not to mention the distance, switching equipment back and forth is quite cumbersome."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I wonder if the following companions and watchers have exclusive luggage and backpacks that can be used to store props and equipment."
He put away the 'Lantern of the Abyss'.
It's a pity that the three-headed lion cannot wear equipment, otherwise this special equipment would be very suitable for the three-headed lion to use...
He had two choices as to where to explore next.
The first is to follow the guidance of the "Dark Dragon Knight Memory" and go to the Hermit Canyon in the Bamogo Mountains to continue the Dragon Knight's inheritance path.
The second is to use the teleportation scroll collected from Grand Maester McGuire to go to a place called the ‘Star Chasing Corridor’.
Lin Xun estimated that the difficulty of the map of 'Hermit Canyon' should be much greater than that of 'Star Chasing Corridor'.
According to the exploration order of easy first and then difficult, the next step should be to go to the ‘Star Chasing Corridor’.
With this thought in mind, he opened the inventory and clicked on the props.
[Do you want to use the teleportation scroll of the Star Chasing Corridor to teleport to the Star Chasing Corridor? 】
[Your current knowledge limit is insufficient and cannot be transferred to the destination!]
"...The upper limit of my knowledge is five thousand two, is it still not enough?"
The underworld game silently caused another stumbling block.
Since clearing the monsters on the map, the amount of knowledge has not increased significantly for a long time.
According to the settings of the underworld game, knowledge can be obtained from knowledge-seeking monsters and star monsters.
However, if you encounter monsters such as Grand Bachelor and Guild President for the second time after the first encounter, your knowledge will not increase.
And reading materials will not gain knowledge again in front of the same information.
Just like he already knew the false path to becoming a god, he will no longer gain any knowledge when reading McGuire's memorandum.
There are also some books and props in his package, but they are far from enough to increase the upper limit of knowledge.
"Can we only go find the ancient dragon first..."
As the saying goes, it’s never too late to eat well.
Lin Xun originally wanted to increase his strength to the current limit, and he would be more confident if he went to explore the Hermit Canyon.
The sudden situation is like a student who is studying hard and is only one month away from the college entrance examination. He is accidentally told to take the pen and admission ticket and take the college entrance examination now, immediately!
