《Worldwide Class Change: With No Class, I Become Stronger Whenever I Enter The Abyss》 Chapter 1 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios 3022, Jiangnan province. Today was the annual Day of Awakening. In the central square of Linhai City, hundreds of young men and women were waiting in an orderly line. In the middle of the square was the altar that had been discovered a hundred years ago. Linhai City was also built on this altar. Lin Lei stood amidst the crowd. He stared at the altar in front of him, his mind filled with a myriad of thoughts. It had been 18 years since he came to this era as a transmigrator. A hundred years ago, the game fused with reality, and the Catacombs and the ferocious beasts descended. In the beginning, humans fell into despair. The country sent troops to explore the Catacombs. In the end, they suffered heavy casualties. The ferocious beasts in the Catacombs were abnormally ferocious. Even fully armed soldiers would not be able to defeat them. Moreover, there were many complicated terrains in the Catacombs that even modern technology could not explore. Faced with this dangerous situation, the various countries joined forces and formed a joint expedition team. However, no one passed through the Catacombs. Just as the world fell into despair. Altars are gradually being discovered around the world. As long as he performed the awakening ritual on the altar, he could change his class! After years of research, people quickly understood its use. There were many altars distributed throughout the world. Only young men and women who had reached the age of 18 could change professions. After that, the various countries would organize an adult ceremony every year to send young men and women to the altar to undergo the awakening professional ceremony. As long as one carried out the awakening ritual, they would obtain two talents, one positive and one negative. Most people would choose to change their profession based on their talent. The acquisition of negative talents was especially important. It would affect the effects of one¡¯s profession and might even turn one into a cripple! Someone had once awakened the negative talent [Cannot Eat], causing them to starve to death! However, in most cases, negative talent would only determine the strength of the awakened profession. After awakening a talent, one could choose many professions. Warriors, Mages, Archers, Assassins, Priests¡­ However, different professions also had different grades. Different professions also had their own profession skills level. If one was unspecialized, they would not be able to learn these skills. In addition, different professions would also have different equipment, but they could only wear the equipment of their own profession. After Lin Lei transmigrated, he began to gather information on the various catacombs. The level of the Catacombs and the situation inside were public information. Typically, students who had just transitioned would only be Class E. Those with better talent would be Class D. Lin Lei secretly memorized the information regarding the various catacombs. The reason why he had come to this world in the first place. It was when he was once an explorer on the Blue Planet and went deep into the Catacombs. An accident happened. He came to this world from the Catacombs. Only by returning to the Catacombs would there be a possibility of returning to the Blue Planet. Therefore, no matter what, he had to go into the Catacombs! To go home! He looked at the altar again. It would change his fate in this world! As the ceremony began. Everyone could not help but tense up. He was worried. The students below the stage stretched their necks and looked at the altar where others had awakened their talents. ¡°Ji Qi, Year 1 Class 1 of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School. Positive Talent [Extreme Strength], Negative Talent [Depression].¡± ¡°Li Hongfei, Year 1 Class 1 of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 High School. Positive talent [Spiritual Energy]. Negative talent [Extremely poor comprehension].¡± ¡°Bai Kui Kui, Year 1 Class 1 of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School. Positive talent [Flame Affinity], negative talent [Dissolve upon contact with water].¡± ¡°Zhang Yijian, Year 1 Class 1 of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School. Positive talent [Strong Physique], negative talent [Low vision].¡± ¡­ When everyone heard the talent announcement, they could not help but feel that it was a pity. There were two talents, positive and negative. Sometimes, if the negative was used well, it could produce good effects. Most people¡¯s positive talent was mediocre. Therefore, the students were more concerned about negative talents. This was an important factor that affected how far through the Catacombs they could go! However, this time, there did not seem to be any heaven-defying talent. Only the person involved knew the specific effect of the talent. Others could only guess from the name. As the team continued to move forward, everyone gradually quietened down. They had already come this far. No matter what they awakened, they could only accept their fate. Before it was their turn for the ceremony, everyone prepared to form teams. Although there were many unknowns about talent awakening, those who usually performed well in school had good talent awakening. Therefore, many people formed teams in advance. Among the crowd, a beautiful girl with long hair was the most eye-catching. There were several people surrounding her. They all wanted to team up with her. ¡°Isn¡¯t this the genius of the Feng family, Feng Xinxue? That¡¯s great. She doesn¡¯t have to worry about teaming up in the dungeon.¡± ¡°She¡¯s good-looking and strong. She¡¯ll definitely awaken a very strong talent. I¡¯m envious.¡± Amidst everyone¡¯s whispers, Feng Xinxue smiled and rejected the person beside her, walking all the way to Lin Lei. She extended her hand to Lin Lei. ¡°After the awakening ceremony ends, let¡¯s enter the dungeon. Shall we form a team?¡± Feng Xinxue chose Lin Lei because he was first in both theoretical knowledge and simulations in school. No matter what talent he had awakened, with such a strong learning ability, he would definitely not be bad. Feng Xinxue had long taken a fancy to Lin Lei¡¯s abilities. Even if he was a lifestyle class instead of a combat class, he could be a commander in the team. Lin Lei had a good impression of Feng Xinxue. As the Young Miss of the Feng family and a genius in school, she did not put on any airs. Although she was still a little arrogant and valued benefits above all else, the people in big families were all like this. Lin Lei didn¡¯t feel any ill will. At this moment, upon receiving Feng Xinxue¡¯s invitation, Lin Lei happily agreed. After a short commotion, almost everyone had chosen their teammates to enter the dungeon. The team advanced very quickly, and it was soon Lin Lei¡¯s turn. Seeing Lin Lei step forward, even those who had awakened good talent didn¡¯t leave. They were all looking forward to seeing what kind of talent Lin Lei would awaken. After all, this was a ruthless person who was number one in both theory and simulation! It definitely wouldn¡¯t be bad. Feng Xinxue watched from below the stage without blinking. Lin Lei and the others stood at the center of the altar. Under the guidance of the host of the ceremony, everyone closed their eyes. Warm white light surrounded them. A mechanical voice rang out in Lin Lei¡¯s mind. [Welcome to the Talent Altar] [Awakening talent¡­] [Talent awakening successful!] [Congratulations on obtaining a negative talent: [Unspecialized] You can¡¯t change your class to any class. You can only be an unspecialized.] Lin Lei opened his eyes, a look of astonishment in them. Was there a mistake? How did he awaken this? However, this was the truth. Lin Lei was unwilling to accept this. The negative talent he had awakened was actually a jobless talent! Without a choice of profession, one would basically die in the Catacombs! Seeing Lin Lei¡¯s appearance, the mentor by the altar shook his head. It was a pity. He originally thought that he would awaken a very powerful talent, but he did not expect it to be [Unspecialized]. Lin Lei left the altar in a daze and walked to the side. He opened the system interface and looked at the dazzling negative talent on it. He was visibly depressed. He looked down and saw that below the negative talent was the positive talent! Lin Lei impatiently opened it. Chapter 2 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Lin Lei opened it, and his eyes widened. As he watched, Lin Lei couldn¡¯t hide his joy. He almost blurted out. ¡°Holy shit!¡± [Positive Talent: [Catacombs Blessing] Effect: Every time you enter the Catacombs, you will randomly obtain one to many temporary buffs (possibly including negative buffs). If you pass through the Catacombs, the temporary buffs can be converted into permanent buffs (negative buffs removed)! Lin Lei immediately became excited. So what if he was unspecialized? As long as he had this talent, he could become stronger in the Catacombs! Lin Lei was now confident that he could rely on his positive talent to become the strongest in the world! ¡°The world¡¯s strongest unspecialized class is not bad! Haha!¡± His negative talent was unspecialized, and he could not become any class. But with the enhancement of the [Catacombs Blessing], Lin Lei didn¡¯t have to worry too much. Just think about it, he was unspecialized, but what if he had obtained the talent [Fire Element Mastery]. Then, what if he equipped a mage¡¯s staff? He could directly transform into a mobile cannon! He could hold a staff in his left hand and a sword in his right. Wouldn¡¯t he be killing whatever stood in his way?! If it was another class, they would not be able to use other equipment due to class restrictions. However, he was now able to benefit from a disaster because of his identity as an unspecialized. All Class Equipment could be casually worn. Moreover, there was no upper limit to the buffs obtained by [Catacombs Blessing]. This meant that Lin Lei had unlimited room for growth. After experiencing the ups and downs of excitement, Lin Lei¡¯s heart was filled with excitement. He could not wait to enter the [Newbie Dungeon]! As long as he entered the Instance Dungeon, he would be able to obtain enhancements. Although Lin Lei was overjoyed, he didn¡¯t show it on his face. This kind of heaven-defying talent could not be known by others. The students around him saw Lin Lei standing alone at the side. They all shook their heads. ¡°Back then, the theoretical simulation of the first place was so glorious. Look at how he only awakened one Unspecialized negative talent now.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t there a positive talent like [Catacombs Blessing]?¡± ¡°That¡¯s nothing. He doesn¡¯t even have a job to choose from. No matter how many blessings he gets, it¡¯s useless.¡± ¡°An unspecialized has it tougher than other classes. It¡¯s simply hellish.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Unspecialized characters can¡¯t use any class skills, nor can they use the characteristics of class equipment.¡± ¡°These shortcomings are already fatal enough. However, although an unspecialized class can use all weapons, the experience required to level up is also several times that of an ordinary class.¡± ¡°Who would want such rubbish positioning?!¡± ¡°I¡¯ll even find it a burden as a teammate.¡± The students next to Lin Lei didn¡¯t seem to be worried that he would hear them. They all spoke very loudly. Just as they had thought, although Lin Lei heard it, he didn¡¯t show it. After all, in the eyes of these people, Lin Lei was just a useless wanderer. They had no idea how powerful Lin Lei¡¯s trump card was. Just as everyone was discussing and mocking Lin Lei¡­ Another shocking voice sounded from the Awakening Altar in the distance. ¡°Feng Xinxue, Year 1 Class 1 of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School. Positive talent [Unlimited Firepower], Negative talent [Slow Movement].¡± As soon as the announcement was made, everyone was shocked. ¡°F*ck, isn¡¯t this too awesome?¡± ¡°I can tell from the name. This is a necessary talent for mages.¡± ¡°With such fierce firepower, it won¡¯t be a problem even if she had to stand still.¡± ¡°Moreover, many spells require stillness to be activated. Slow movement is a good talent.¡± For a moment, everyone was envious. Everyone¡¯s gaze was focused on Feng Xinxue. They were all extremely envious. There were very few examples of positive and negative talents complementing each other. Not to mention Feng Xinxue, who was obviously a top-notch positive talent. Even the teachers at the side were very surprised when they saw this. ¡°Looks like this person from the Feng family is the strongest.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not bad to have a genius this year.¡± The instructor by the altar stroked his beard with a gratified expression. Feng Xinxue walked down from the altar, and everyone made way for her. Previously, everyone had only flattered her and said that she was a genius of the Feng family. Before the day of awakening, everything was unknown. Now, Feng Xinxue was a well-deserved expert, so everyone gave her enough respect. Feng Xinxue arrived in front of Lin Lei. She looked at Lin Lei, a hint of disappointment flashing across her eyes. Originally, she had thought that Lin Lei would be able to awaken a decent talent. Unexpectedly, it ended up like this. Feng Xinxue directly said to Lin Lei, ¡°The team application just now doesn¡¯t count anymore.¡± ¡°I hope you find a team that suits you.¡± As long as Lin Lei¡¯s negative talent was slightly better, Feng Xinxue wouldn¡¯t choose to give up. She could also convince her other teammates to let Lin Lei join their team. However, this was an unspecialized player in the team who just ate XP. There was nothing he could do to help when they were in the Instance Dungeon. The XP he would take was even more than other professions. The benefits of nurturing him were low and the effects were poor. It could not form combat strength at all. Even if Feng Xinxue agreed, the others would not agree. Thus, Feng Xinxue could only regretfully choose to give up on Lin Lei. Lin Lei knew that Feng Xinxue¡¯s words weren¡¯t directed at him. However, when he heard the surrounding students¡¯ sarcasm and saw that Feng Xinxue was still prioritizing benefits as usual as she gave up on him¡­ He was still disappointed. It turned out that Feng Xinxue only knew how to judge people based on appearances. He nodded and smiled. ¡°I hope you can find a suitable teammate too.¡± After speaking, Lin Lei gracefully turned and walked towards the entrance of the [Newbie Dungeon]. [Newbie Dungeon] was a must-pass for all newcomers who had completed the Awakening Ceremony. There was a teacher on duty at the entrance of the Newbie Dungeon. In order to prevent ignorant students from casually barging in. It was also for the safety of the students who had registered to enter the instance dungeon. Lin Lei walked forward, and his teacher inspected his talent. Seeing that Lin Lei¡¯s talent was an unspecialized, his eyes instantly dimmed. Originally, when he saw Lin Lei¡¯s demeanor, he had thought that he was a genius student. After all, those who had challenged the dungeon alone in the past were all geniuses from large families. Unexpectedly, Lin Lei¡¯s talent was actually so trashy. He felt some sympathy for him. The others probably didn¡¯t want to form a party with him, so he entered the dungeon alone. The teacher¡¯s expression changed from warm to cold. ¡°Go in. You can choose any weapon in the equipment room, but you can only choose two.¡± Under normal circumstances, everyone had their own fixed profession. Each profession chose a different weapon. Therefore, most students would choose their weapons when they entered the Instance Dungeon. They could only get one at a time. However, it was different for the unspecialized. This was because an unspecialized weapon could not unleash the greatest effect of a weapon. In addition, there were no restrictions on the use of weapons. That was why he gave preferential treatment to the unspecialized in this aspect. To let him choose one more weapon than the other students. Lin Lei thanked him, then walked towards the equipment room. Chapter 3 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The equipment room at the side of the dungeon was beginner equipment specially prepared by the school for newcomers. Lin Lei picked it up and took a look. The equipment wasn¡¯t very good. They were all white quality. Equipment was also graded. From low to high, they were: ordinary, refined, outstanding, perfect, epic, legendary, supreme, and mythical. However, the equipment that could be placed in the equipment room was only ordinary. The truly good equipment could only be obtained in the Catacombs. After looking around, Lin Lei didn¡¯t hesitate too much. He took his staff and shield. These two pieces of equipment corresponded to the basic weapons of mages and warriors. [Weapon: Wooden Staff (Normal)] [Attack Power: 1/2] [Durability: 30/30] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Magic] [Description: With this, you can use magic. Every 10 minutes of battle consumes 1 Durability] [Weapon: Wooden Shield (Normal)] [Defense: 1/2] [Durability: 30/30] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Warrior] [Description: It will protect you, but is not reliable. After being attacked ten times, 1 durability point will be depleted.] ¡­ The effect of the weapon was as Lin Lei had imagined. It wasn¡¯t very good, but it was just enough. Seeing that Lin Lei had chosen them and was holding these two pieces of equipment in his hands, the teacher immediately frowned. He dissuaded, ¡°Student, you¡¯d better not choose these two pieces of equipment.¡± Lin Lei understood what he meant, but he still pretended to be innocent. ¡°Teacher, why do you say that?¡± The teacher in charge of guarding the dungeon sighed in disappointment. But he still dutifully explained to Lin Lei, ¡°You can¡¯t choose a profession. As an unspecialized person, you have a lot of limitations.¡± ¡°If you want to form a team in the early stages, it¡¯s best to choose the priest¡¯s wand.¡± ¡°Or a thief¡¯s dagger.¡± ¡°It¡¯s more appropriate to choose these support weapons and support a team to gain experience.¡± What this teacher was talking about was also the fighting style of an unspecialized. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t the first person to become unspecialized. Many people¡¯s awakened talents were useless, and many people¡¯s negative talent effects were very bad. There were very few people who could awaken their professional talent without being affected. Therefore, many students chose to become unspecialized. However, even if these solo players had a guide, they would not have a good ending. It would be best if one could survive in some small teams. But Lin Lei didn¡¯t choose the most convenient and fast way that his teacher had mentioned. He was planning to form a team by himself. In any case, Lin Lei had the invincible buff [Catacombs Blessing]. There was nothing to be afraid of. If he teamed up with others, it would easily expose his situation. Therefore, in the face of his teacher¡¯s kind reminder¡­ Lin Lei only nodded in thanks. ¡°Thank you, Teacher. But I only need these two weapons.¡± The teacher wanted to say something but hesitated. He looked like he expected better from him. He had already persuaded Lin Lei to this point, but Lin Lei was still obstinate. The teacher stopped persuading him. From the drawer, he took out the basic skill books for mages and warriors and handed them to Lin Lei. These were all basic skills and were not exclusive to professions. For example, a mage¡¯s Fireball could be learned by both mages and warriors. However, ordinary people would not specially learn the skills of other professions. They didn¡¯t even have time to upgrade their professional skills. Learning other occupations was just a waste of time. Moreover, they had their own team. They only needed to specialize in one thing and leave the rest to their teammates. In Lin Lei¡¯s situation, he had to train himself to be proficient in various professions. He took the Basic Skill Book and learned it in person. [Skill Book: Fireball (Normal)] [Effect: After using it, you will learn a normal skill, Fireball LV1] [Skill Book: Beginner Sword Technique (Normal)] [Effect: After using it, you will learn the ordinary skill ¡°Beginner Sword Technique Lv1¡±] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Warrior] ¡­ After Lin Lei received the skill book, he discovered that there was another item inside, so he opened it to take a look. [Item: Newborn Prairie (Grade E)] [Effect: Entry ticket to Level E Instance Dungeon, Mirkwood] [Prerequisite: Level 0-5] Seeing Lin Lei do this, the teacher couldn¡¯t help but shake his head. He hoped that Lin Lei would be able to leave the dungeon alive. The probability of an unspecialized being able to survive the dungeon was too low. And Lin Lei was alone. After all, he was only a newcomer who had just awakened his talent. There were quite a number of rookies in the Instance Dungeon. Because they were too afraid, their levels had been cleared to zero. Everyone in this world had their own levels. Levels would allow them to increase their strength. However, every time one died, one would lose a level. When the level was 0, one would die completely. Lin Lei walked to the entrance of the pocket dimension. There was a line of words printed on it. [Newbie Dungeon: Level E Difficulty] This was the most basic dungeon difficulty and was very suitable for newbies. However, the cruelty of this world had determined it. No pie would fall from the sky. If they failed the dungeon, they would still be punished. If he failed once, his attributes would permanently decrease by 1. Moreover, like other dungeons, it would cause people to drop levels. Lin Lei simply skipped over these introductions. He was already well aware of this. Before entering, Lin Lei opened his system interface and checked his attributes. This was also a precaution. [Name: Lin Lei] [Level: 0 (0.00%)] [Class: None] [Health: 20] (Constitution x5) [Mana: 15] (Spirit x5) [Attributes: Strength 4, Spirit 3, Constitution 4, Agility 5] [Defense: 8] (Strength + Constitution) [Talent: Unspecialized, Catacombs Blessing] [Skills: Fireball (Level 1), Basic Swordsmanship (Level 1)] After all the checks were completed. Lin Lei confirmed once more, and took the equipment. He wanted to put his equipment in the most comfortable and fastest place to take it out. This way, he would be able to move faster in the instance dungeon. Moreover, when he encountered monsters, his reactions would be faster. After experimenting a few times, Lin Lei made minor adjustments. In the eyes of others, Lin Lei was very rash. However, he was fully prepared. After confirming that all the preparations were done, Lin Lei once more raised his head to glance at the pocket dimension. This was the beginning of his legend! Lin Lei took a deep breath and removed all distracting thoughts from his mind. He recalled the types of Catacombs he would encounter in the novice dungeon. After confirming it, Lin Lei slowly let out the turbid air in his chest. He did not hesitate and walked in decisively. When he entered the Instance Dungeon, the other students around him happened to arrive. ¡°Did I see wrongly just now? I think I saw Lin Lei enter the dungeon alone.¡± ¡°I also saw a solo player entering the Instance Dungeon. Could he be an idiot?¡± ¡°Even drinking water in an instance dungeon can cause you to choke to death! If Lin Lei had no experience and died in the dungeon, wouldn¡¯t that be sending himself to his death?¡± ¡°Who cares? What does it have to do with us if he wants to die alone?¡± ¡°Perhaps he couldn¡¯t stand the fact that he had awakened his talent as an unspecialized, so he deliberately went in to commit suicide.¡± ¡°Stop talking. It sounds too pitiful.¡± Laughter came from the entrance of the pocket dimension. Chapter 4 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios [Newcomer Grassland (Grade E)] [Number Requirement: 1-5 people] [Level: 0~5] [Difficulty: No level] [Prerequisite: Level 0-5, Entry Scroll x1] After the dungeon notification was confirmed. The light of the teleportation array flashed before his eyes. Lin Lei disappeared at the entrance of the pocket dimension. [You have arrived at the Newcomer Grassland.] [Main Mission 1 has been activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Warning: Death penalty in Level E Instance Dungeon is -1. Mission Failure Permanent Attribute -1] [You have obtained the Return Scroll. Please note that when you are attacked, the Return Scroll will lose its effect.] Several notifications popped up one after another. A white light flashed. Lin Lei appeared on an empty green grassland. At the end of his line of sight was a lush forest and flat grassland. Everything in front of him looked so beautiful and harmonious. There was no danger at all. In front of Lin Lei, a few adorable green beasts were jumping about. Through the information above his head, he could see that they were all slimes. [Monster: Slime] [Level: 1] [HP: 2] [Attack Power: 1~2] [Defense: 1] [Skill: Repel] [Description: The weakest ferocious beast on the grassland. There are many of them.] Lin Lei immediately opened the mission interface. [Mission 1: Kill 20 weak Slimes] [Mission 2: Not yet activated] Was it just killing Slimes? Seeing the mission, Lin Lei¡¯s heart was calm. According to the information he had found, Slimes were not dangerous monsters. As long as he paid attention to the method, he could easily complete it. In a Level 1 Instance Dungeon, there would not be any terrifying monsters. Therefore, he was calm. At this moment. Lin Lei entered the pocket dimension and activated the positive talent [Catacombs Blessing]. [Detected that after entering the Catacombs, the positive talent [Catacombs Blessing] has been triggered.] [Congratulations on obtaining a temporary buff: Weapon Proficiency] [Positive Buff: Weapon bonuses greatly increased] [Negative Buff: Movement Speed reduced by 50%] After being strengthened by the buff, Lin Lei discovered that his defense had been greatly strengthened. He could clearly feel that something had changed in his body. Originally, after equipping the shield, his defense had increased by a lot. Even if it was just holding a shield, Slimes could not make him lose HP. Lin Lei glanced at the system interface. Now, his defense had already reached 15! The attack power of the weak slime was low to begin with. Now that it hit Lin Lei, it couldn¡¯t even break through his defense. He would probably only get a string of misses. Lin Lei directly picked up his weapon. After assuming an attacking stance, he attracted the Slime¡¯s attention. He deliberately took a few steps forward and walked into the Slime¡¯s attack range. In an instant, all the slimes surged towards him like crazy. With a staff in one hand and a shield in the other, he moved very slowly. Because everyone had a weight-bearing setting. The more items he carried, the slower his movement speed would be. Coupled with the fact that Lin Lei was now wielding two weapons, his weight had long exceeded his limit. Under normal circumstances, Lin Lei would simply be a living target. Any stronger monster could instantly kill him. Because Lin Lei couldn¡¯t escape at all. However, the monsters he was facing now were Slimes. It was cannon fodder to begin with, so it didn¡¯t matter if it moved. Therefore, the decrease in movement speed of the negative buff he had obtained was completely insignificant to Lin Lei. Lin Lei looked at the adorable, leaping beast in front of him. The shield in his hand was constantly attacked by the slime. The slimes hit the shield and made a series of thuds. It was a little like a downpour on the eaves. Lin Lei appeared unhurried. He was not afraid of the Slimes attacking him crazily. All dungeons in the Catacombs had a scoring mechanism. Solo damage output / solo kills, etc. The ratings were all independent, so teaming up would lower the ratings a lot. Lin Lei had also considered this point, which was why he had chosen to do it alone. He was already unspecialized. He required several times more experience than ordinary people. Therefore, he needed to qualify even more. As long as he could clear it alone. Then his score would be greatly improved. At the final settlement, he could also obtain more rewards. Perhaps it was because Lin Lei didn¡¯t take the slimes seriously. It angered these ferocious beasts. Their attacks on Lin Lei became even more ferocious. All the slimes seemed to have activated their berserk mode. They attacked his shield frantically. Lin Lei¡¯s shield was struck repeatedly. However, he did not move at all. As expected, after his defense was extremely high, not only were the slimes unable to break through Lin Lei¡¯s defense, but even the repelling effect of the novice nightmare was useless against Lin Lei. When humans first explored the E-class dungeon, They did not know how terrifying these cute slimes were. Although their attack power was very low, However, when the number of slimes increased to a terrifying number, Even for those who had undergone the awakening ritual¡­ It was also possible that he would be killed by the Slime using the numbers tactic. In addition, the slime also had the skill Repel. For the person who was attacked by the slimes¡­ If he did not have a shield, he would be beaten back. He could not counterattack when he was repelled. As long as Slimes kept attacking. He would be in an unmovable state. Repeatedly repelled. Up until he was killed by the slimes. Even with the guide, many newbies ignored the horror of the Slime. They even thought that such a cute beast did not need to be feared at all. However, Slimes¡¯ number tactics quickly taught them their power. Its knockback skill had also successfully reached the top of the novice nightmare. Many newbies who entered the dungeon for the first time, even with their seniors¡¯ repeated reminders¡­ Were still defeated by slimes. They had become the first blood of his dungeon. But the invincible tactics of the slimes were all ineffective against Lin Lei. No matter how they attacked Lin Lei, the word ¡®miss¡¯ flashed across his body. After a few minutes, other than scratching Lin Lei¡¯s itch, there was no progress. The shield in Lin Lei¡¯s hand felt the reckless charge of the slimes. But he was safe and sound. Even if there were a few hundred more slimes, it was impossible for them to break through Lin Lei¡¯s defense. This kind of attack was just scratching an itch. Lin Lei sensed the slime¡¯s attack method. He was sure that these slimes did not have any other methods. He released the fireball that he had been brewing for a long time. ¡°Fireball!¡± A small ball of flame flew out from the tip of Lin Lei¡¯s wooden staff. This ball of flames flew directly to the slime closest to Lin Lei. The screams of this slime were mixed in with the attacks of the surrounding slimes. It was inconspicuous. Only the system¡¯s notification echoed beautifully. [Killed ¡°Slime¡±. Experience +10] Chapter 5 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios After killing the first slime, the rest was much simpler. Lin Lei continued to push forward. He then took advantage of the gap and waited for the fireball to cool down before launching an attack. Another slime was instantly killed by him. With the buff of a weapon¡­ Lin Lei could easily attack the slime. After easily killing a few, Lin Lei discovered that there was something glittering on the ground. Curious, he walked forward with the slime and picked it up. [Congratulations on obtaining the Common Skill Stone.] [Description: Can be used to upgrade ordinary skills] Lin Lei immediately upgraded his fireball technique. [Consumed 1 Normal Skill Stone, Fireball upgraded to LV1, various attributes increased slightly.] Slimes would drop many good things. Although it was trash to high-level people. However, for newbies, each of them was very useful. Especially these ordinary Skill Stones. It was also one of the best tools for newbies in the early stages of the transition. However, the drop rate of ordinary Skill Stones was also extremely low. Someone had tried it before. The most unlucky person only got a Normal Skill Stone after killing a hundred Slimes. Lin Lei pondered as he killed the slimes. He had already killed five, but he had only picked up an ordinary Skill Stone. He couldn¡¯t be that unlucky, right? Just as Lin Lei killed ten slimes¡­ He saw another Normal Skill Stone on the ground. Lin Lei took a few steps forward and picked it up. Fireball was too useful. He would save a few more to level up. According to the drop rate of one per five kills, he would soon be able to raise his Fireball to several levels. However, what followed seemed to be Lin Lei¡¯s luck exploding. He had only killed 15 Slimes, but two more Normal Skill Stones had already dropped on the ground. Lin Lei used all of it on the Fireball Tree. He only had the wooden staff as an attack method. He couldn¡¯t use a shield to perform a beginner-level sword technique, right? After using the ordinary skill stone, a notification popped up in front of him: [Used 3 Normal Skill Stones, Fireball upgraded to LV5, various attributes increased slightly] The words ¡®Fireball¡¯ flashed. Lin Lei took a closer look. His Fireball had increased from 2 to 5. [Fireball LV5: There is no need to chant. Select a target within 20 meters and deal 30+ Spirit x1 fire damage. 2 mana consumption. 2-second cooldown] He impatiently raised his wooden staff and fired it at a slime. Compared to the swaying of the Level 2 Fireball, The Level-5 Fireball Spell was very fast. Moreover, its size had also increased by a size. It was the size of a basketball! It looked rather scary. The fireball was shot out and killed all the remaining slimes before dissipating. The moment the slime died, Lin Lei received a series of notifications. [Killed ¡°Slime¡±. Experience +10] [Killed ¡°Slime¡±. Experience +10] [Killed ¡°Slime¡±. Experience +10] [Main Mission Stage 1 completed. Received Clear Rating +1] [Current clearance evaluation is C-rank. Do you want to apply for clearance immediately?] Lin Lei directly skipped the previous string of notifications. What a joke. How could he choose the lowest evaluation? He had yet to complete the second mission. There are different levels depending on the progress and completion of the mission. From low to high: E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, SSS. Lin Lei already had such a powerful positive talent. However, he still had to choose a safe way to fight. Wouldn¡¯t it be a waste? If he didn¡¯t reach the SSS level, it would be considered Lin Lei going easy on them! As soon as he finished choosing, a new notification popped up in front of him: [Main Mission 2 has been activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Mission 2: Kill the Strong Slime (Kill Score +1 if killed in 3 minutes)] Lin Lei¡¯s gaze swept the area. Soon, he discovered that there was a Slime with a different appearance in the distance. It seemed that this was the Strong Slime in the mission. From the outside, it looked like an elite monster. It was actually a head taller than Lin Lei! Lin Lei immediately checked the information. [Monster: Strong Slime] [Level: 2] [HP: 200] [Attack Power: 5~6] [Defense: 5] [Skills: Repel, Summon Companions] [Description: A slime that is unwilling to continue being weak. After training, it became a powerhouse of its race.] Lin Lei rested for a few seconds. He directly walked forward. He held a wooden staff in one hand and a wooden shield in the other. He started by releasing a fireball. Strong slimes were indeed not as easy to kill as ordinary ones. Lin Lei¡¯s attack had only managed to strike a small part of his opponent that was visible to the naked eye. The strong slime immediately let out an angry scream. It immediately entered a combat state. After the strong slime screamed, ten weak slimes suddenly appeared beside him! Lin Lei took a look. These new ones had the same value as the slimes from before. After summoning companions¡­ The strong slime¡¯s huge body pounced towards Lin Lei. Since it was inconvenient for Lin Lei to move around, he decided not to dodge. Instead, he raised the wooden shield in front of him. The strong slime slammed into the wooden shield. As expected of a Mini Boss-level Slime. It actually knocked Lin Lei back a little! Fortunately, it did not activate the repelling effect. Lin Lei¡¯s arm was somewhat numb. After the Fireball cooldown was over, he first dealt with the monsters at the side. The harassment of these monsters was the most annoying. Although they couldn¡¯t break through Lin Lei¡¯s defenses, But their constant harassment and attacks also annoyed Lin Lei like flies. After a few fireballs, the ten weak slimes were defeated by Lin Lei. During this period, the strong Slime kept attacking him. But every time, Lin Lei accurately blocked it with his shield. Thus, Lin Lei wasn¡¯t injured. However, under the attack of the Strong Slime, The durability of Lin Lei¡¯s shield was rapidly decreasing. After finally dealing with the small monsters at the side, Lin Lei launched another fireball at the strong slime. The strong slime was indeed an elite monster. Under Lin Lei¡¯s fireball attacks, He had only lost half of his HP. Lin Lei knew that he couldn¡¯t be impatient. He carefully circled around the strong slime. Time passed minute by minute. In the blink of an eye, two minutes had passed. Lin Lei had already depleted the slime¡¯s hp until there was only a trace of it left. The strong slime pounced at Lin Lei again! This time, Lin Lei didn¡¯t dodge. Instead, he unleashed an explosive attack! The fireball had been brewing for a long time and collided with the strong slime head-on! The last bit of health disappeared. [Killed ¡°Strong Slime¡±. Experience +50] [Congratulations on reaching Level 1. You have received 1 attribute point.] The moment the strong slime died, a pile of things exploded on the ground. Chapter 6 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The ground was covered with shiny equipment. Seeing this scene, Lin Lei¡¯s heart trembled. He had finally defeated this Slime Boss and could pick up equipment! The ordinary slimes just now had all dropped whiteboards. He couldn¡¯t be bothered to pick up those novice swords. Even if he sold it, he would probably not be able to sell it for more than a few copper coins. Only then did Lin Lei feel a little excited about the equipment dropped by the strong slime. There was still a long time before the dungeon ended. Lin Lei relaxed and picked up the equipment on the ground one by one. Equipment below Perfect would be refreshed. If no one picked it up for too long, it would automatically disappear. Although the ground was emitting a lot of light, Lin Lei estimated that it would be good enough if it could drop excellent quality. However, the drop rate in the Instance Dungeon was too low. It was said that one would only drop a Blue Equipment after four to five times. After picking up all the equipment in his bag, Lin Lei casually found a place to sit down and start organizing them. This Strong Slime had dropped quite a lot of items, but Lin Lei glanced at them and realized that there were many copper coins and materials. There were also potions, and there were only five pieces of equipment. Lin Lei shook his head. According to the configuration of a five-person team, each person could have one. However, he still felt that Boss was too stingy. He did not go to the other freebies and casually arranged the items from high to low. In an instant, the system arranged them for him. From front to back were hats, shields, armor, gloves, and earrings. The hat flickered with a blue light. Lin Lei immediately couldn¡¯t wait to open it. [Weapon: Traveling Christmas Military Hat (Excellent)] [Defense: 5/6] [Durability: 60/60] [Prerequisite: Level 1, Magic] [Description: It¡¯s said to belong to an army priest. It has accompanied him through the long years of the army. Depletes 1 Durability per hour after being attacked.] ¡°F*ck! Top-grade!¡± Lin Lei didn¡¯t expect that he would get such excellent equipment. Fortunately, it was a blue hat. Although the green color was of higher quality, it still looked a little strange. He was going to walk the magic path now, so he did not have to worry about not having enough mana. Equipment grades ranged from low to high: Normal (White), Superior (Blue), Superior (Green), Perfect (Yellow), Epic (Red), Legendary (Purple), Supreme (Orange), Mythical (Rainbow). However, the hat he obtained was an excellent grade that could be called a divine artifact when he was a novice. This luck was so good that Lin Lei couldn¡¯t help but laugh loudly. The remaining equipment was a little poor. They were all ordinary white equipment. Other than increasing the weight, there was no meaning in wearing them. Looked like he¡¯s concentrating all his luck on the hat. Lin Lei didn¡¯t mind. He put all the equipment on. For a moment, his stats increased by a large margin. Now, let alone slimes, he could fight as he pleased. Even if he went to a higher level dungeon, Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t be too weak. He looked at his character interface. After putting on all the equipment, although his stats were much higher, he looked very strange. After equipping the hat, Lin Lei immediately felt his head lighten. His dizziness from using fireballs repeatedly just now had also been greatly alleviated. These equipment looked a little ugly when worn together, but Lin Lei didn¡¯t mind. However, it was still tolerable for it to look a little strange. [Main Mission Phase 2 has been completed. Obtained clearance rating +2] [Current clearance evaluation is B-rank. Do you want to apply for clearance immediately?] The settlement interface popped up again. This time, Lin Lei chose yes. The scene in front of him gradually distorted. With a flash of white light, Lin Lei disappeared from the pocket dimension. Lin Lei appeared at the entrance of the Newbie Dungeon again. New messages kept popping up in his information bar. [Congratulations on completing the Newbie Dungeon ¡°Newcomer Grassland¡±] [First time clearing the Newbie Dungeon. Reward: Basic Skill Book ¡°Sprint¡±] [Instance Dungeon reward settlement¡ª] [Congratulations on reaching Level 2. You have received 2 attribute points, Spirit +1] After briefly reading the news, Lin Lei nodded in satisfaction. This was his first step to becoming an unspecialized. He had successfully completed the first Newbie Dungeon. Lin Lei thought for a moment. One attribute point was added to his strength, while the other was added to his spirit. He mainly used Warrior and Mage now, so he prioritized these two. He would increase his other attribute points after leveling up. As an unspecialized, he needed to develop in all aspects, so he had to add all his attribute points. If there were fewer, it would be easy to create shortcomings. From the start, Lin Lei had planned to make full use of the hexagonal advantage of an unspecialized. It was precisely because unspecialized people had too many troublesome aspects that they were ostracized. In the past, even if someone chose to be an unspecialized, they would either die or quickly choose a class. There were only two people who had persisted on being unspecialized. Lin Lei withdrew his thoughts. He took out the skill book rewarded by the system and chose to learn it without hesitation. [Skill Book: Sprint (Refined)] [Effect: After using it, you will learn the normal skill ¡°Sprint Lvl 1¡±] [Prerequisite: Level 0] His current state was not bad. Lin Lei planned to strike while the iron was hot and continue to buy new beginner dungeon scrolls. He also wanted to test the power of the new equipment. After a short rest, he opened the map. Lin Lei followed the map and found the location of the shop. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the shop, Lin Lei realized that the teacher in charge of the shop was an old acquaintance. It was his homeroom teacher, who was said to have retired. He was stunned for a moment, hesitating if he should go in. It wasn¡¯t that Lin Lei felt embarrassed to be seen by his teacher. Instead, he was worried that his teacher would care too much about him. Lin Lei¡¯s homeroom teacher, Cai Qiang, was a very worried little old man. Usually, because Lin Lei was an orphan, he took good care of him. If he knew that Lin Lei had become unspecialized, he would nag him a few more times. Lin Lei was just about to turn and leave when Cai Qiang, who was standing behind the counter, happened to see him. Cai Qiang hurriedly called out to Lin Lei. ¡°I heard that you¡¯ve awakened the negative talent [Unspecialized]?¡± ¡°Teacher Zhang told me that you didn¡¯t listen to his advice and insisted on going to the [Newbie Dungeon] alone.¡± ¡°Lin Lei, this is too dangerous. Find a team to enter the dungeon together.¡± Lin Lei had a headache. Judging from his teacher¡¯s reaction, it was indeed as he had expected. However, this little old man, Cai Qiang, was really thinking about him. At this moment, Lin Lei couldn¡¯t talk back, so he could only nod and smile. However, the form teacher had long seen through Lin Lei¡¯s habits. Usually, when he said something that this kid did not like to hear, he would put on a humble attitude and ask for advice. In a life-and-death situation like entering an Instance Dungeon, Cai Qiang would not indulge him! Cai Qiang was about to lecture Lin Lei, but when he saw that Lin Lei was wearing a beginner¡¯s uniform, he stopped. He sighed. Lin Lei was too stubborn. In the past, he had always refused to help. Now, he had to rely on his own strength. Cai Qiang was both gratified and worried. Chapter 7 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Lin Lei knew that this little old man was imagining things again. Just as he was about to speak, Cai Qiang interrupted him. ¡°Don¡¯t take it to heart. You can only be unspecialized now. No team will be willing to team up with you. ¡°However, don¡¯t be discouraged. Unspecialized people can also become very powerful professions. You have to be confident! Didn¡¯t you hear about two unspecialized experts in class in the past?¡± Seeing his teacher so worried about him, Lin Lei was rather touched. But before Lin Lei could say anything, the footsteps of a group of people came from outside the door. ¡°Teacher Cai, give us some good equipment! We¡¯re going into the dungeon!¡± The first to walk in was the class monitor of Lin Lei¡¯s class. The class monitor, Wang Fu, was a disciple of the Wang family¡¯s side branch. Usually, he would go around looking for trouble just because he was a member of the Wang family. He kept mentioning that he was a member of the Wang family. However, in reality, the Wang family had as many side branches as the stars in the sky. No one would care at all. Therefore, in the eyes of most people, he was like a clown. However, he pretended to be very enthusiastic about taking care of his classmates in front of the teacher, so Cai Qiang did not discover his true colors. As soon as Wang Fu entered, he saw Lin Lei standing to the side. Seeing that Lin Lei didn¡¯t have any equipment on him, he couldn¡¯t help but mock, ¡°Look who this is. Isn¡¯t that genius Lin Lei? I heard that he¡¯s the number one in our school. How did he become unspecialized?¡± As soon as the class monitor finished speaking, the others beside him laughed along. Before Lin Lei could make any expression, Cai Qiang, who was listening from the side, said with a dark expression, ¡°How can you laugh at your classmates?¡± Wang Fu immediately expressed his grievances. ¡°It¡¯s because he¡¯s usually too arrogant that we don¡¯t like him. If you don¡¯t believe me, you can ask the other students.¡± As soon as he finished speaking, the others hurriedly nodded. Wang Fu continued, ¡°Teacher, you¡¯re no longer our teacher. Don¡¯t speak up for him. Lin Lei is just an unspecialized. I changed my profession to a black iron mage!¡± Every class had a class level, but there was a different quality. The higher the quality, the stronger the combat power. From low to high: Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Master, Grandmaster, Immortal, Supreme. Wang Fu had just transitioned into a mage, so he could only be the lowest-level Black Iron. He continued to clamor: ¡°A lot of people want me to team up with them now.¡± ¡°As for Lin Lei, he¡¯s just trash that no one wants!¡± After Wang Fu finished speaking, he laughed out loud. His lackeys also laughed along. Lin Lei, on the other hand, looked at him as if he was looking at a retard. This kind of idiot would only look at the surface. Initially, he didn¡¯t want to fuss over it, but he had to jump on his face. With the class monitor first tearing off his mask and arguing with Lin Lei, his lackeys naturally had to follow. Behind the class monitor was a skinny youth called Monkey. He chuckled and rubbed his hands. ¡°Class monitor, why are you fighting with him? He¡¯s just unspecialized. I saw that even Feng Xinxue doesn¡¯t want to take him in. Who would be willing to accept such trash?¡± The other sidekick quickly echoed, ¡°Monkey is right. Our awakening ritual is over. The graduation examination will be soon.¡± ¡°When the time comes, Lin Lei won¡¯t have anyone to form a team with. Let¡¯s see how he passes as an unspecialized!¡± Monkey laughed. ¡°It¡¯s impossible for anyone to want him. If he¡¯s willing to kneel down and beg me, I might be merciful and give him a piece of junk. Isn¡¯t that right, everyone?¡± After Monkey finished speaking, the others laughed out loud. Another sidekick said sarcastically: ¡°Anyway, an unspecialized wants all kinds of trash.¡± Lin Lei looked at them as if he was looking at a dead person. He let out a cold laugh and ignored them. These people had not even cleared the [Novice Dungeon], yet they actually came to provoke him. Lin Lei knew these people very well. After all, they had been classmates for a few years. With their temperament, as long as they joined the instance dungeon, there was a high chance that they would die! They didn¡¯t even need to wait for Lin Lei to make a move! These people thought that as long as they brought good equipment, they could sweep through low-level dungeons. What a joke! They had no idea that this was just drinking poison to quench their thirst! It was impossible to improve! If they wanted to obtain better equipment, they would have to challenge stronger Instance Dungeons. However, the few of them were cowards. In the end, they would definitely be eliminated because they could not deal with the dungeon. Talking to such an idiot was just a waste of time. Lin Lei directly placed an order with Cai Qiang. ¡°Teacher, give me a low-level Catacombs Instance Dungeon Scroll.¡± Cai Qiang looked at Lin Lei worriedly, wanting to say something but hesitated. He sighed. In the end, he still sold the scroll to Lin Lei. Lin Lei took the scroll, thanked him, and asked, ¡°Teacher, do you buy equipment here?¡± Hearing Lin Lei¡¯s words, the class monitor, Monkey, and the others were originally a little unhappy with Lin Lei¡¯s attitude. At this moment, it was as if they had heard the funniest joke. They all laughed. Monkey was about to burst into tears. He pointed at Lin Lei. ¡°Could this kid be putting on a brave front? Could it be that he wants to sell all his beginner equipment?¡± The others laughed out loud. Wang Fu looked at Lin Lei disdainfully. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you think that by selling the equipment in the novice dungeon and exchanging it for some copper coins, you can continue to enter the dungeon? The teacher guarding the dungeon would not give any more equipment. ¡°If you¡¯re so stupid that you can¡¯t think straight, then you really don¡¯t have the right to be my opponent.¡± Lin Lei gave them a puzzled look. What were these idiots doing here? What did he selling equipment have to do with them? A bunch of lunatics! Lin Lei didn¡¯t reply. Instead, he continued to look at Cai Qiang. Cai Qiang knew that he couldn¡¯t help his student much. He nodded and said, ¡°The shop will purchase the equipment in the instance dungeon. As long as you obtain it from the instance dungeon, you can sell it. ¡°However, the bound equipment can¡¯t be recycled.¡± Lin Lei nodded. He threw all the equipment he didn¡¯t need into the shop. He planned to take the high-quality route, so the whiteboard on his body would affect the weight. It would also take up space. Other than the weapons and shields, he sold all the other whiteboards. Cai Qiang was a little surprised to see several pieces of equipment suddenly appear in front of him. Could it be that Lin Lei had really completed the mission? A look of relief flashed across Cai Qiang¡¯s eyes as he quickly put away Lin Lei¡¯s equipment. Soon, he finished his calculations. ¡°Here are a total of 1 gold coin, 3 silver coins, and 50 bronze coins. Please keep them well.¡± Wang Fu and the others were dumbfounded when they saw the scene before them. Monkey widened his eyes and cursed repeatedly. ¡°That¡¯s impossible. He¡¯s just a trashy unspecialized. How can he defeat a dungeon?!¡± The others also felt the pain in their faces. Wang Fu¡¯s face instantly contorted. He didn¡¯t believe that Lin Lei actually had equipment to sell. He was just an unspecialized who had awakened a trash talent. How could he solo the dungeon! There must be a conspiracy! Could it be that Lin Lei¡¯s series of performances were all fake? Someone specially helped him? Who was it! Wang Fu¡¯s face twisted with jealousy. Chapter 8 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Wang Furen was dumbfounded. The few of them awakened their talents and quickly came out to form a team. After discussing the direction of the team, they went to the shop to buy equipment. It could be said that there was no delay at all. In such a short period of time, Lin Lei had already cleared the dungeon? Wang Fu was shocked speechless. Impossible, absolutely impossible! Wang Fu and the others were already very fast, but they hadn¡¯t even entered the dungeon yet. How could Lin Lei have already cleared the level? He must have picked up the equipment from somewhere! Although those who had awakened their talents were all newbies¡­ Their family had a lot of assets. Even if a little bit leaked out from the gaps between his fingers, it could still be given away. Wang Fu felt that his thoughts were perfect. He immediately pointed at Lin Lei. ¡°You must have begged others for equipment. Aren¡¯t you ashamed to ask others for equipment to sell?¡± Lin Lei couldn¡¯t be bothered with Wang Fu¡¯s jealous face. Let them jump. How long could the toad last? After Lin Lei put away the money, he strode away. Wang Fu had thought that Lin Lei would argue with him. Unexpectedly, Lin Lei actually ignored him. Lin Lei¡¯s actions made Wang Fu even angrier. Watching Lin Lei leave, Monkey carefully asked, ¡°Boss, are we still following?¡± Wang Fu looked at Monkey angrily. ¡°Do you want to follow or not?¡± With that, he followed behind Lin Lei. As soon as he walked out, the other four looked at each other and could only follow behind him. Wang Fu was just waiting to see Lin Lei make a fool of himself. In the past, Lin Lei had always been in the limelight in class. Since he had awakened such a trashy talent¡­ Wang Fu wanted to help him. It would make him even more famous! In the past, Wang Fu had thought that he could become the leader of the class, but he hadn¡¯t expected Lin Lei to appear. However, Lin Lei¡¯s results were exceptionally good, making Wang Fu seem useless. As he followed behind Lin Lei, he entered the class group. Wang Fu watched as Lin Lei strode away, secretly sending a message in the class group chat. ¡°I met Lin Lei. He¡¯s planning to solo a dungeon.¡± All the students in the class were paying attention to Lin Lei¡¯s news. Hearing Wang Fu¡¯s words, they were even more curious. ¡°Monitor, help us keep an eye on them.¡± ¡°Lin Lei wants to solo it? Class monitor, stop joking. How can an unspecialized solo it?¡± ¡°You guys weren¡¯t paying attention when we were in history class. Didn¡¯t an unspecialized once solo a dungeon?¡± ¡°How many years ago was that? There have only been two unspecialized jobs in history!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Lin Lei is a rare genius.¡± A group of people quickly flooded the class group chat. Wang Fu¡¯s gaze was cold. ¡°Lin Lei, this time, I want your reputation to be ruined.¡± Along the way, Wang Fu followed behind Lin Lei. He was no longer conflicted about how Lin Lei had obtained the equipment. Right now, he wanted to see if Lin Lei would enter the dungeon or not. Wang Fu¡¯s lackey was a little worried. ¡°Boss, could Lin Lei really have gone in?¡± Monkey immediately patted his head and said, ¡°Don¡¯t talk nonsense here. How could Lin Lei possibly go to a dungeon?¡± ¡°He¡¯s just an unspecialized. He won¡¯t be able to defeat it even if he goes.¡± Another lackey couldn¡¯t help but say, ¡°However, after entering the Instance Dungeon, the benefits are still quite big. As long as one can complete a quest, he can leave.¡± Wang Fu¡¯s team had the same plan. With the strategies of the players, they could complete two quests. However, the others would usually only do the first one before leaving the Instance Dungeon. The profit from completing a quest was enough to earn back the ticket price of the Instance Dungeon Scroll. Moreover, it would be twice as much! Wang Fu sneered. ¡°That¡¯s impossible. He won¡¯t go in.¡± The lackey asked in confusion, ¡°Why? Even if he¡¯s an unspecialized, he should have the ability to complete the first mission.¡± Wang Fu glanced at him and shook his head. ¡°No, because Instance Dungeon scrolls are very expensive. Even if he sells so much equipment, he doesn¡¯t have many gold coins.¡± ¡°You know his family¡¯s situation. He¡¯s a pauper and has no parents.¡± ¡°How could a family like that give up on a pocket dimension?¡± ¡°We can give up on a mission and come out, but he can¡¯t.¡± Wang Fu¡¯s words enlightened everyone. Monkey slapped his thigh. ¡°Boss, you¡¯re right!¡± ¡°The penalty for abandoning the mission is severe. He won¡¯t do it.¡± Another sidekick said, ¡°So if he went into the dungeon, he had to complete all the quests before he could come out.¡± Everyone looked at each other, feeling that they had already controlled Lin Lei. ¡°How can an unspecialized like him complete the Instance Dungeon?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, that¡¯s right. It¡¯s impossible for him to enter the instance dungeon unless he wants to stay in the instance dungeon until the time is up and forcefully withdraw.¡± Seeing Lin Lei¡¯s figure arrive at the entrance of the pocket dimension, the smile on Wang Fu¡¯s face became even more obvious. With Lin Lei¡¯s family background and strength, how could he possibly enter a pocket dimension? Wang Fu felt that his analysis was perfect. People were arriving one after another at the entrance of the dungeon. These people were all members who had formed a team after the awakening ceremony. Seeing Lin Lei arrive at the entrance of the pocket dimension, many people couldn¡¯t help but watch. After all, Lin Lei was ranked first in both theory and simulation. Everyone was paying close attention to his movements. Moreover, less than half an hour had passed. After everyone had awakened their talents, they had just taken their equipment and arrived at the entrance of the Instance Dungeon. Lin Lei¡¯s arrival instantly attracted everyone¡¯s attention. Those who were waiting for their teammates at the entrance of the pocket dimension all looked at him. Lin Lei didn¡¯t care about everyone¡¯s gazes at all. He adjusted his equipment. Although the shield was still beginner¡¯s equipment, it had already been changed to something dropped by the slime. Therefore, the durability was still the highest. It was enough for the next Instance Dungeon. Moreover, after the actual battle, Lin Lei also knew how to use a shield to reduce its durability. If he used it sparingly, he would still have some durability left after using up the two dungeons. After confirming that his equipment was fine, Lin Lei went to the entrance of the pocket dimension. When the teacher in charge saw him go over, a surprised expression flashed across his face. Although there were more people at the scene, it was not so crowded that no one could enter. Lin Lei smoothly arrived at the door and tore open the scroll. [Item: Sunset Forest (E)] [Effect: Entry ticket to E-Level Dungeon, Sunset Forest] [Prerequisite: Level 0-5] Lin Lei wasn¡¯t surprised that this dungeon had been randomly chosen. There were many E-Class Instance Dungeons, so it was possible to enter any one of them. However, he had already thoroughly understood the various Catacombs. When he saw the name, he knew what he would face. Lin Lei chose to use it. With a flash of white light, Lin Lei disappeared from the entrance of the pocket dimension. Everyone who had been silently paying attention to him was incomparably shocked. ¡°Am I seeing things? He entered the instance dungeon alone?¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t that person an unspecialized? How dare he enter the dungeon alone?¡± ¡°He¡¯s really courting death!¡± Amidst the commotion, no one felt that Lin Lei would be able to successfully return. Chapter 9 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios [You have arrived at the Sunset Forest (E)] [Main mission activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Warning: Death penalty in Level E Instance Dungeon -1. Failure to complete mission. Permanent attribute -1] [You have obtained the Return Scroll. Please note that when you are attacked, the Return Scroll will lose its effect.] The white light in front of him faded. Lin Lei opened his eyes. He was in a pitch-black forest. It was still dawn outside the Instance Dungeon. But it became night inside. Lin Lei immediately took out his weapon. He checked the system information. As expected, it was not much different from the previous dungeon, but the requirements were a little troublesome. [Sunset Forest (Grade E)] [Number Requirement: 1-5 people] [Level: 0~5] [Difficulty: No level] [Prerequisite: Level 0-5, Entry Scroll x1] [Mission: Clean up 30 Goblins] There was no second quest in this instance dungeon. Therefore, the difficulty increased a little. He wouldn¡¯t encounter dungeon quests with bosses every time either. Thus, Lin Lei wasn¡¯t that disappointed. After reading this, the dungeon buff that Lin Lei was waiting for appeared. [Congratulations on obtaining a temporary buff: Attack Speed] [Head Buff: Attack Speed increased by 10 times] [Negative Buff: Double-wielding weapon prohibited] The positive buff obtained from the previous dungeon was fixed, but the negative buff had disappeared. At this moment, Lin Lei¡¯s body not only had a buff that increased his attack speed by ten times¡­ But there were also weapon buffs. The buff that increased his attack speed immediately made Lin Lei¡¯s eyes light up. Fortunately, he had his had his staff. Lin Lei put away his shield and equipped his staff. Anyway, he had no use for it now. Lin Lei carefully walked deeper into the forest. He hadn¡¯t gone far when he heard movement up ahead. Lin Lei immediately stopped in his tracks. A green creature emerged from the bushes. [Monster: Goblin] [Level: 1] [HP: 5] [Attack Power: 1~2] [Defense: 2] [Description: The races in the forest like to form groups.] Taking advantage of the fact that the ferocious beast had yet to discover him, Lin Lei went up and fired a fireball. The Level 5 Fireball flew over quickly. The Goblin only had time to let out a scream before turning into ashes. [Killed Goblin. Experience +10] Instant kill! After testing it out, Lin Lei knew that this dungeon was no longer a problem for him. He immediately changed from passive to active and searched for other Goblins in the forest. Lin Lei searched very quickly. He immediately discovered a Goblin team. If the Goblins were the first instance dungeon, Lin Lei might have hesitated. However, he had the staff in his hand and the buff that increased his attack speed by ten times. He was not afraid at all. The Goblins howled and pounced at Lin Lei. These green-skinned ferocious beasts had ferocious expressions, as if they wanted to capture Lin Lei and eat him. As Lin Lei retreated, he used his staff to release fireballs. With the buff, the cooldown speed of the Fireball was shockingly fast. Almost as soon as the previous one dissipated, the next one followed. In a moment, this team of six Goblins was wiped out by Lin Lei. If Lin Lei wanted to kill this team without the buff, it would take at least thrice as long finish the battle. However, at this speed, it wouldn¡¯t take long for him to complete the cleanup mission. After destroying this team, Lin Lei continued to search for his next target. Thanks to the fact that Goblins like to appear, Lin Lei needed less time to find them. The Goblins in this dungeon were very weak. They were completely unable to stop Lin Lei. If Lin Lei hadn¡¯t obtained the buff, it would also be very difficult for him to defeat the Goblins. These green ferocious beasts were even more dangerous than slimes. In addition to being in groups, they were also armed. They also knew how to fight together. If he was targeted by these Goblins, they would keep chasing him. He could not get rid of the entire Instance Dungeon. Many newbies were surrounded by the Goblin army and eventually killed. Fortunately, Lin Lei¡¯s attack speed made it too late for these Goblins to counterattack. Lin Lei only used a short half an hour to finish it. He was still missing a Goblin team to wrap up. Lin Lei felt that this dungeon run was incomparably easy. The strong slimes would at least give him some pressure. However, these Goblins were meat on the chopping board. They could be cut however they wanted. Right now, Lin Lei was crushing this dungeon. He felt that the Level 1 Instance Dungeon could no longer suppress him. The last Goblin team took Lin Lei some time. He had already explored the outermost circle. But when Lin Lei found this Goblin team, their fate had already been decided. Under the continuous bombardment of Lin Lei¡¯s fireballs, these Goblins had nowhere to escape. It could only be converted into experience points! [Killed Goblin. Experience +10] [Killed Goblin. Experience +10] [Killed Goblin. Experience +10] After killing the last Goblin, the mission was completed. [Main mission completed. Received rating +1] [Current clearance evaluation is A-rank. Do you want to apply for clearance immediately?] ¡°Yes.¡± [Congratulations on reaching Level 3. You have received 1 attribute point, Spirit +1] This time, he killed 30 Goblins and dropped some equipment, but they were all useless. There was nothing worth paying attention to. Although they had also dropped a staff, it was no different from the novice staff Lin Lei used. He simply changed to a more durable one and planned to continue selling them in a shop. But luckily, after leveling up, Lin Lei¡¯s attributes in all aspects had increased again. With a flash of white light, he returned to the entrance of the instance dungeon. The entrance of the novice dungeon became very crowded. Most of the students had already entered the instance dungeon. After all, this was a world where the strong preyed on the weak. If one did not want to enter the dungeon to level up, they would only be stepped on by others. After coming out, Lin Lei didn¡¯t move. He glanced at the time outside. It was still quite early. He planned to clear another dungeon. This time, Lin Lei bought several low-level dungeon scrolls in one go. In any case, he had to farm more before his level increased. If he could obtain good equipment, he could change his weapon. After Lin Lei finished buying the scrolls, he didn¡¯t encounter anyone else this time. He arrived at the dungeon entrance and immediately used the second scroll to enter the dungeon. Just as Lin Lei entered, his classmate happened to see Lin Lei. ¡°Am I seeing things? Lin Lei seems to have entered the dungeon alone.¡± His teammate beside him immediately laughed and said, ¡°I think you¡¯re dreaming. How can he enter the dungeon?¡± Another teammate added, ¡°That¡¯s right. He¡¯s an unspecialized. Even if he fails the Instance Dungeon, there¡¯s a cooldown time for him to return.¡± ¡°Waiting for the cooldown to end would take until tomorrow.¡± He wasn¡¯t so sure either. The classmate scratched his head and said, ¡°Maybe I made a mistake. After all, Lin Lei is an unspecialized. How can he go solo?¡± Chapter 10 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios [You have arrived at the deep hole (E)] [Main mission activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Warning: Death penalty in Level E Instance Dungeon -1. Failure to complete mission. Permanent attribute -1] [You have obtained the Return Scroll. Please note that when you are attacked, the Return Scroll will lose its effect.] Lin Lei opened his eyes. The dungeon this time was different from the previous one. It was pitch black in front of him. Fortunately, Lin Lei had long since taken out a torch from his backpack. The environments in the various dungeons were different. Therefore, when they were in school, the teacher had reminded them to bring some equipment with them to prevent any accidents. For example, torches, winter clothes, and so on. As soon as Lin Lei lit the torch, the surroundings came into view. Above them were dripping stalactites, and in front of them was a dark, bottomless cave. A rustling sound came from afar, disturbing one¡¯s nerves. Lin Lei didn¡¯t feel any fear. Instead, he took out his staff with his other hand. [Congratulations on obtaining a temporary buff: Bloodthirsty] [Positive Buff: Kill Bronze units, permanently increases 10 HP, no upper limit] The monsters in the Instance Dungeon also had levels. It was the same as the class quality level. However, most of the monsters were Iron-tier. Only a few elite monsters and bosses would become Bronze-rank. As for the Silver level, that was a treatment exclusive to bosses. The first strong slime Lin Lei encountered in the dungeon was a Bronze-rank slime. Unfortunately, it was a little too late to obtain the buff now. Fortunately, his luck was good this time. There were no negative buffs. Lin Lei took a step forward, and the echo reached his ears. [Deep Cave (Grade E)] [Number Requirement: 1-5 people] [Level: 0~5] [Difficulty: No level] [Prerequisite: Level 0-5, Entry Scroll x1] The Instance Dungeon this time did not seem difficult. Lin Lei checked the mission information. [Mission: Kill 30 Spiders] These little things were crawling around in the hole. It was quite scary. Fortunately, Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid of spiders. Moreover, these insect-type ferocious beasts were very sensitive to flames. Lin Lei¡¯s fireball spell came in handy. His footsteps were very fast. Other than the scary background, there was not much danger in the cave. It was just an E-class Instance Dungeon. Even if there was danger, it would be easy to resolve. Lin Lei quickly found a spider in a corner. Compared to Slimes and Goblins, these spiders were too small. If not for the system notification, Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t have discovered it. [Monster: Spider] [Level: 1] [Health: 10] [Attack Power: 3~4] [Defense: 1] [Description: A creature that lives in a cave and has never seen sunlight.] As usual, Lin Lei sent a fireball flying over. The spider¡¯s defense was very low. After being attacked by the fireball, he was eliminated without even letting out a scream. However, the experience it gave was still the same. Seeing that the spiders couldn¡¯t cause him any trouble, Lin Lei was overjoyed. After all, he already had so many buffs. The previous buff that prohibited dual-wielding weapons no longer affected him. The negative buffs obtained each time could only be used in that instance dungeon. Therefore, as long as he did not encounter a very unsolvable negative buff during the dungeon¡­ Lin Lei didn¡¯t need to worry too much. At this moment, facing these small spiders that were only level one, he could be said to be a god of death that had descended to the mortal world. His movements were extremely fast, and it didn¡¯t take long for him to clear the arena in front of him. Deep Cavern was the most unpopular E-ranked instance dungeon. Firstly, because there was no sunlight in the cave, someone needed to carry a torch. The other thing was that these spider monsters were very scary. Most people didn¡¯t like arthropods, let alone spiders crawling all over the ground. Fortunately, Lin Lei didn¡¯t have these problems. Seeing these little spiders, he began to kill them. He walked forward and pushed forward. He killed all the little spiders in his way. In less than half an hour, Lin Lei had completed the mission of killing thirty spiders. He felt that this Instance Dungeon was easier than the previous one. At the very least, he did not need to find monsters to kill. The last spider also died under the fireball. As Lin Lei felt the mana replenishment from the hat, He began to check the system notification. [Main Mission Stage 1 completed. Received Clear Rating +1] [Current clearance evaluation is A-rank. You can start the next stage of the mission target. Do you want to apply for clearance immediately?] Lin Lei looked at the notification, feeling pleasantly surprised. ¡°This is the trigger for a hidden dungeon!¡± Under normal circumstances, quests in instance dungeons would be notified the moment they entered the arena. However, there was only one exception, and that was the hidden dungeon. When a hidden dungeon appeared, an additional stage of the quest would be activated. The rewards from hidden dungeons were usually very generous. However, the difficulty of the hidden dungeon would also increase exponentially. Sometimes, there would even be Class E Instance Dungeons that issued Class C missions. Although Lin Lei only had one piece of excellent equipment, But he had three positive buffs on him. Naturally, he was not scared. Even if he activated a C-rank mission, he had the ability to fight it. Since that was the case, Lin Lei naturally decisively chose to activate his concealment. After all, being able to encounter a hidden dungeon once in a hundred dungeons was already considered lucky. How could he let go of such a good opportunity! [Main Mission 2 has been activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Mission 2: Kill the berserk spider (Kill Score +1 in 3 minutes)] Lin Lei had just finished accepting the mission when he heard a roar from up ahead. Immediately after, the ground trembled. Many spiders swarmed towards him. [Monster: Berserk Spider] [Level: 3] [HP: 30] [Attack Power: 10~15] [Defense: 10] [Skills: Silk Spit, Summon Companions] [Description: Crazy because of the large number of deaths of its own kind. It wants to kill all invaders and avenge its companions.] After the second mission was activated, the strength of all the monsters increased greatly. If Lin Lei wasn¡¯t the one here, they would most likely have been wiped out. These spiders opened their eight big eyes and advanced crazily towards him. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid at all. As he retreated, he bought time for himself to use a fireball that was ten times faster. Although these strengthened spiders were not mini bosses, they had the strength of elite monsters. Lin Lei¡¯s frontal buff, [Bloodthirsty], happened to be activated. One spider after another died under his fireball. The system notifications kept jumping. [Killed Berserk Spider. Experience +15] [Killed Berserk Spider. Experience +15] [Killed Berserk Spider. Experience +15] [Head buff Bloodthirst activated, permanently increasing 10 HP] [Head buff Bloodthirst activated, permanently increasing 10 HP] This was the first time Lin Lei¡¯s HP had dropped. However, the moment his HP dropped, it was restored by the [Bloodthirst] buff. With such a heaven-defying increase in HP¡­ Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid of monsters at all. Even if there were a lot of spiders. Lin Lei also had many tolerances for mistakes. The light of the fireball kept flickering in the cave. Lin Lei continued to kill indiscriminately. Chapter 11 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Lin Lei slaughtered his way to the Boss¡¯s door. The little spiders advanced one after another. Even if they had already gone crazy. But they still couldn¡¯t stop Lin Lei. Ten times attack speed and continuously increasing health points. Even if there were ten times more spiders, Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t be afraid at all. The surging spiders were all killed by Lin Lei. Experience points flowed like water. The fireballs in Lin Lei¡¯s hands continued to fire. It was like a moving cannon. The berserk spiders all rushed towards him. She tried to give him a few bites. However, even if a spider was lucky enough to bite it, In the next moment, Lin Lei recovered his health. Over and over again, his health seemed to be on a seesaw that kept going up and down. No matter how much it fell, it would make up for it. [Killed ¡°Mad Spider¡±. Experience +15] [Killed ¡°Mad Spider¡±. Experience +15] [Killed ¡°Mad Spider¡±. Experience +15] [Killed ¡°Mad Spider¡±. Experience +15] Lin Lei was about to level up. However, he had already killed all the spiders in front of him. The entrance of the Boss was much wider than other places. An obvious door was placed in front of him. Lin Lei checked his health. After fighting the Berserk Spider for a long time, his HP was still full. It had even increased quite a bit. This wave pushed Lin Lei¡¯s health to an extremely exaggerated level. Lin Lei¡¯s condition wasn¡¯t bad. Right now, he had only just warmed up. He pushed open the door decisively. After a burst of passionate music. The Boss had appeared. This Boss was much stronger than the strong Slime. This could be seen from its information. [Monster: Spider Mother] [Level: 5] [Health: 100] [Attack Power: 10~20] [Defense: 10] [Skills: Silk Spit, Howl, Summoning Companions] [Description: Because too many children were killed, an angry mother personally appeared to kill the invaders.] When he saw the boss, the system notification came late. [Triggered Hidden Boss, Spider Mother. Level +1 after defeat.] He did not expect that there would be a boss battle in this dungeon. Initially, he thought that it would be good enough to have one stage mission. He didn¡¯t expect to get another boss. The boss¡¯s level even exceeded Lin Lei¡¯s by two levels. But now, he was not afraid at all. With the buff, a mere Boss was easy to deal with. The Spider Mother let out a howl. Its body was abnormally huge, hundreds of times larger than ordinary spiders. Lin Lei raised his head to look. This monster was several stories tall. The Spider Mother¡¯s eyes flashed scarlet. Without waiting for the other party to attack, Lin Lei first released a fireball technique. The scorching flames sprayed onto the Spider Mother. However, above its head, there was only a small -2. Lin Lei cursed under his breath. He did not expect the Spider Mother¡¯s defense to be so strong. Only then did he manage to break through its defense. If not for the fact that he had the talent to increase his attack speed by ten times, he would not have been able to defeat it even if he was tortured to death. Lin Lei¡¯s expression was solemn, and he became vigilant. The Spider Mother used Silk Spit. The long threads pounced towards Lin Lei. Fortunately, Lin Lei¡¯s movement speed wasn¡¯t slow either, allowing him to dodge this attack. However, the next moment, the Spider Mother attacked again. A sharp whistle pierced his eardrums. Lin Lei was struck by a sound wave attack. A blood-red -10 appeared above his head. Lin Lei couldn¡¯t help but let out a curse. As expected of a Level 5 Boss, its attack power was indeed high. Fortunately, Lin Lei¡¯s health had already increased to a terrifying level. Even if he lost 10 HP in one go. He recovered very quickly. Lin Lei secretly rejoiced. If not for the buff this time that allowed him to recover his HP¡­{seg If he encountered this boss, he would probably die in a few moves. He¡¯d be defeated by it. Lin Lei became even more vigilant. The fireball in his hand was like raindrops. Uninterrupted. Although it could only reduce Boss¡¯s HP by two points at a time, However, as long as there were enough of them, the Boss¡¯ HP would decrease. The Spider Mother howled incessantly. Lin Lei didn¡¯t move at all, and the fireballs in his hands were fired even more frequently. In an instant, the Spider Mother¡¯s HP was reduced by more than half. Lin Lei¡¯s spirits were lifted, and the fireballs in his hands didn¡¯t stop. After being hit by the Spider Mother a few more times. Lin Lei¡¯s health finally shrunk by a third. However, the Spider Mother¡¯s HP had already decreased to the point where it would die if it attacked again. Lin Lei calmly dodged the next attack and smashed the fireball into the Spider Mother¡¯s body. The huge Spider Mother let out a final scream. Its heavy body slammed into the ground, stirring up smoke and dust. As the Spider Mother died, Lin Lei heard the beautiful system voice. [Killed Spider Mother, gained Experience +50] [Congratulations on reaching Level 5. You have received 5 attribute points, Spirit +5] [Congratulations on obtaining the Black Iron Gift Bag. Do you want to open it?] Lin Lei¡¯s eyes lit up. As expected of such a difficult Boss. It even gave him a hidden reward. Gift bags in dungeons were very difficult to obtain. It might not even drop once every ten times. Lin Lei couldn¡¯t wait to open it. [Congratulations on obtaining the Lightning Strike Spell. Do you want to learn it?] The system actually gave him a Mage Skill Book. He was really lucky! Among all the skill books, the mage skill books were the most valuable. Usually, even if he went to set up a stall, the price would be high. If he had bought it outside, Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t have been able to buy it with his current money. However, at this moment, he could learn it directly. He had really profited! Lin Lei immediately chose to learn. [Skill Book: Lightning Strike (Normal)] [Effect: After using it, you have learned the ordinary skill ¡°Lightning Strike Technique LV1¡±] Lin Lei picked up the materials that the Boss had dropped. There were also some shiny equipment among them. However, when he opened it, he realized that it was basically blank. This time, there was no equipment of a higher level. [Main Mission Stage 2 completed. Obtained Clear Rating +1] [Current clearance evaluation is S-rank. Do you want to apply for clearance immediately?] This time, Lin Lei didn¡¯t choose to continue waiting. Instead, he directly settled the score. In any case, he had already picked up everything that he could in the Instance Dungeon. Lin Lei came out of the pocket dimension. Raising his head, he saw that it was already dark outside. However, the entrance of the Instance Dungeon was still very lively. The students shouted at each other as they entered the dungeon together. Many of them had already changed teams many times. Many people failed on the first day alone. The noisy surroundings annoyed Lin Lei. He walked out and felt the phone vibrate in his pocket. Lin Lei took out his phone to take a look. ¡°Congratulations on reaching Level 5.¡± ¡°Already qualified for the official exam.¡± ¡°Please arrive at 8:00 a.m. tomorrow.¡± Chapter 12 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Chapter 12: Exam Instance Dungeon, Large-scale Instance Dungeon is about to begin! The students who could reach Level 5 on the first day were all the elites of the school. Although it had been a hundred years since the game and dungeon appeared, However, most rookies would still feel fear when facing an Instance Dungeon. In addition, the novice dungeon also restricted levels. They could only rely on their own strength. At most, they would use some props. This way, it was impossible for most students to reach Level 5 in a day. After a day of hard work, most of the students were still at Level 3. Fortunately, through clearing dungeons, Lin Lei had already promoted himself to the first tier. Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Lei planned to return to his dormitory first and rest until tomorrow to take the exam. After all, if he did not rest well tonight, he would not be able to show his strength in tomorrow¡¯s exam. This would also cause his ranking to be lower. He might as well save time to rest. After washing up, Lin Lei lay down to sleep. As a person with awakened talent, even if the negative talent he awakened made him only an unspecialized, But Lin Lei was also stronger than most people who hadn¡¯t awakened their talent. Therefore, he could occupy a dormitory alone. After a sleepless night, at dawn, Lin Lei got up and tidied up his equipment. These equipment were all whiteboards. There was nothing special about their names. [Weapon: Beginner¡¯s Knife (Normal)] [Attack Power: 1/2] [Durability: 30/30] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Assassin] [Description: It¡¯s a little stronger than empty-handed. You can¡¯t expect to use it to do anything other than killing fish. Every 10 minutes of battle consumes 1 Durability.] [Weapon: Beginner Sword (Normal)] [Attack Power: 1/2] [Durability: 30/30] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Warrior] [Description: It¡¯s better than using a branch. After all, a warrior needs a weapon.] Every 10 minutes of battle consumes 1 Durability.] [Weapon: Wooden Bow (Normal)] [Attack Power: 1/2] [Durability: 30/30] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Archer] [Description: You can only use archery skills with it. Believe me, you won¡¯t expect its power.] Every 10 minutes of battle consumes 1 Durability.] Lin Lei couldn¡¯t be bothered to look at the others. In any case, their attributes were not much better. Other than increasing the weight, there was no other use for this trash. After checking his equipment, Lin Lei opened his attribute panel. [Name: Lin Lei] [Level: 5 (12.03%)] [Class: None] [Health Points: 150] (Constitution x5) (Bloodlust Bonus) [Mana: 45] (Spirit x5) [Attributes: Strength 5, Spirit 9, Constitution 8, Agility 6] [Defense: 13] (Strength + Constitution) [Talent: Unspecialized, Catacombs Blessing] [Headline Buff: Weapon Mastery, Attack Speed Up, Bloodlust] [Skills: Fireball (Level 5), Basic Swordsmanship (Level 1), Lightning Strike (Level 1)] After checking the information, Lin Lei nodded in satisfaction. The gains from the few instance dungeons were not bad. Next, he just had to sell the equipment he didn¡¯t need and buy some necessities. Lin Lei got up and left for the store. This time, the teacher in the shop was not the form teacher. ¡°May I ask where Cai Qiang went?¡± Lin Lei was somewhat puzzled. The teacher in the shop was also an acquaintance of his. Previously, he had been in charge of teaching Lin Lei theoretical knowledge. Seeing Lin Lei ask this¡­ He replied, ¡°Teacher Cai has retired. He was filling in for me yesterday.¡± ¡°The school said that they wanted to hire him back to continue being the form teacher, so from today onwards, he won¡¯t come here anymore.¡± Lin Lei was somewhat disappointed. If the homeroom teacher was around, he might be able to get some benefits. However, they were all small problems. He quickly emptied the equipment. After selling all the trash equipment in his backpack, Lin Lei bought a few more items that might be used for the exam. After sorting everything out and confirming it, Lin Lei left the shop. He headed to the examination venue. The examination venue was not far away. Lin Lei quickly arrived. Lin Lei realized that there were very few people around him. There were only 80 students who could meet the requirements to level up to Level 5 in a day. There were also some familiar faces. They were all influential figures in the school that Lin Lei knew. However, Lin Lei had never interacted with them. These people were always very high-profile in school. From the looks of the people around them, they might have formed a fixed team. Only Lin Lei arrived alone. In addition to these students, there were also teachers and principals who maintained order. The teachers were at the periphery, watching these elite students with bright futures. The principal just stood on the stage. He looked at the people below the stage. His eyes revealed a gratified expression. It was already not bad for a school to have more than 80 people on the first day. After all, the difficulty of the Instance Dungeon was still very high. Everyone was probably here. The Archchancellor cleared his throat. The students below the stage instantly fell silent. Everyone looked up at the principal. The Archchancellor said: ¡°Congratulations, students.¡± ¡°The people present are all elites of our school who have reached Level 5.¡± ¡°Today is the Class Advancement exam.¡± ¡°Students, please be prepared.¡± ¡°If there are any students who are not present, please inform each other.¡± ¡°The content of this exam is to carry out a multiplayer dungeon.¡± ¡°Whichever team kills more than 100 points will qualify. The more points you have, the better.¡± ¡°But please do your best.¡± ¡°I am very happy that everyone is able to enter the examination instance dungeon. This instance dungeon supports the participation of 100 people at the same time.¡± ¡°There aren¡¯t enough people now. You need to wait again. You can form a team during the wait.¡± ¡°Then I won¡¯t waste my breath. Students, let¡¯s start forming teams.¡± After the principal finished speaking, he walked off the stage. Most of the class changers present had fixed teams. To be able to reach Level 5 on the first day, most people relied on the strength of a team. Not themselves. Therefore, they were indifferent to the principal¡¯s words. There were only 20 to 30 people. Because the members of the fixed team did not meet Level 5 requirements, they started to form teams at the last minute. Soon, someone noticed Lin Lei, who was alone. No matter how few people there were at the scene, there were still two people in a team. But only Lin Lei was standing by himself. ¡°Student, do you want to join our team?¡± ¡°Your equipment looks like a Mage. We just happen to be lacking a Mage here.¡± Lin Lei didn¡¯t recognize him. It should be someone from the class next door. Faced with this invitation, Lin Lei only said one thing. ¡°I¡¯m an unspecialized. Are you sure you want to invite me?¡± As soon as these words were spoken, the students invited were stunned. ¡°You¡¯re actually an unspecialized?!¡± His voice was heard by the people around him. Everyone was shocked. Unspecialized could actually level up to Level 5 on the first day? It was unbelievable. The news of an unspecialized person at the examination venue spread like wildfire. Even the teachers were alarmed. At this moment, Lin Lei¡¯s form teacher had also been rehired. When he heard the news, a look of disbelief appeared on his face. ¡°He¡¯s already Level 5?¡± ¡°How is that possible? He¡¯s an unspecialized, and he doesn¡¯t have any good equipment. How did he level up?¡± Chapter 13 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The form teacher thought about it and could only think of one possibility. Could it be that Lin Lei had pretended to be at level five and had come to the examination venue? After all, as long as one could enter an Instance Dungeon, this kind of multiplayer Instance Dungeon was a huge EXP reward. In the past, there were also some people who had not reached Level 5 who tried to enter. However, because their levels were low, it would cause them to encounter greater difficulties in the dungeon. If he wanted to level up¡­ Instead of participating in a multiplayer dungeon, he might as well go to the rookie dungeon outside and grind a few more times. After all, there was a high probability of death in a multiplayer dungeon. When Cai Qiang thought of this, he anxiously went to find Lin Lei. Lin Lei saw that Cai Qiang was about to greet him happily. The other party interrupted him with a serious expression. ¡°Lin Lei, you have to reach level five before you can take the exam here.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t try to bluff your way through. Go to the Instance Dungeon and gain experience.¡± ¡°It¡¯s very dangerous!¡± Cai Qiang¡¯s words made Lin Lei not know whether to laugh or cry. As expected, he was worried for nothing. Cai Qiang thought for a long time and finally came to a conclusion. Perhaps it was because Lin Lei had not obtained a class, and his negative talent could only be unspecialized. Now he had lost his mind. That was why he wanted to join a multiplayer dungeon. This was no child¡¯s play. Seeing Lin Lei¡¯s speechless expression, Cai Qiang comforted him in a soothing tone. ¡°Lin Lei, you still have a chance to take the exam next time.¡± ¡°Although you¡¯re an unspecialized, it¡¯s not like there¡¯s no way out.¡± ¡°The gap between unspecialized in the early stages is not that big. You can also use various basic skills to increase your level.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t go down the wrong path.¡± His series of words made Lin Lei both happy and speechless. The homeroom teacher was still worrying and thinking blindly as usual. Lin Lei spread his hands and said, ¡°Teacher, I¡¯ve reached Level 5. I¡¯ve been registered.¡± ¡°Although I¡¯m very happy that you care about me, won¡¯t you think about it carefully? Can I enter the examination hall without registering?¡± Lin Lei¡¯s words stunned Cai Qiang. What he said did make sense. Cai Qiang was still in disbelief, so he immediately ran to investigate. However, when he checked, he was stunned. Lin Lei was actually at the fifth level?! Cai Qiang carefully looked at the registration information a few times. He was so shocked that he could not believe it. Although the gap between unspecialized in the early stages was not that big, they were still considered weak. To be able to advance to Level 5 under such circumstances¡­ If Lin Lei didn¡¯t have such a negative talent, wouldn¡¯t he have been able to advance to level ten in one go? Cai Qiang had specially come to investigate. The teacher in charge of registration was also curious and took a closer look. Originally, no one would care about the information filled in by the students. It was enough to know that it was Level 5. Unexpectedly, there was actually a Level 5 without a profession here. The registration teacher immediately exclaimed. This news continued to spread among the teachers. Soon, the principal was alarmed. The principal was drinking tea at the side, admiring the heroic bearing of these students. He was a little surprised to hear this news. However, the principal was knowledgeable and wasn¡¯t as shocked as the teachers. After all, before leveling up to a high level, there were indeed some students who wanted to choose unspecialized. However, this choice was different from those who were forced to be unspecialized. ¡°Lin Lei from Cai Qiang¡¯s class?¡± ¡°To be able to rely on an unspecialized to level up to Level 5, it seems like this kid is quite something.¡± The principal nodded and praised. But he didn¡¯t really care. After all, it was not unheard of to reach Level 5. If someone specially fed Lin Lei experience, it would be very easy for him to advance to level five. The other students present were all waiting for Lin Lei to be expelled. After all, an unspecialized class could not enter a multiplayer dungeon. It was not that the dungeon restrictions required a team. It was just that no one would want to team up with such a person. One person wanted to complete the points goal of a multiplayer dungeon? It was not a fantasy, but the probability was extremely low. Thus, in the eyes of the students, Lin Lei could either lie and say that he was at level five. Or he would be kicked out of the examination hall. However, it was beyond their expectations. Lin Lei was still standing at the examination venue, not expelled. ¡°Could it be that he has a backer?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve never heard of any family with the surname Lin.¡± ¡°Could it be that he begged the teacher to stay here?¡± The students were all very curious, but no one went forward to talk to him. Soon, a team found Lin Lei. After all, everyone present was a student who had reached Level 5. Even as an unspecialized, Lin Lei had his merits. This student who came to invite him was not tall and had a vicious expression on his face. ¡°I heard that you¡¯re an unspecialized. My team is currently lacking a Priest. Do you want to come to my team as a healer?¡± Lin Lei decisively refused. ¡°I don¡¯t have the skills of a priest.¡± Although being a priest was very safe, it wasn¡¯t what Lin Lei wanted. It was precisely because it was safe that the benefits were very low. He also gained very little experience in that role. Seeing that Lin Lei had rejected him, the captain didn¡¯t mind. He continued, ¡°It¡¯s fine even if you don¡¯t learn it. As long as you join my team, I¡¯ll give you the priest¡¯s skill book and weapon for free.¡± ¡°However, there¡¯s a condition for giving these to you. You can¡¯t choose the spoils of war in the subsequent dungeons.¡± ¡°How is it? This is a huge discount. Our team is very strong. We will definitely be able to obtain points.¡± He appeared rather confident. This captain felt that Lin Lei was just an unspecialized, and there was no room for him to refuse. It was already good enough that a team was willing to take him. Lin Lei didn¡¯t pay any attention to these conditions. Instead, he was as determined as before. ¡°There¡¯s no need. I think it¡¯s good to do the Instance Dungeon alone.¡± Lin Lei didn¡¯t like this arrogant captain. It was not because he judged a book by its cover, but because he looked like an antagonist. Instead, the conditions he offered were not beneficial other than squeezing Lin Lei dry. Although the Priest Skill Book was also very popular, it was nothing compared to a Mage. Many families would have Priest Skill Books for their descendants to learn. Therefore, it had been in circulation on the market. If Lin Lei needed to learn the priest skill, he could just spend money to buy it. Using a few cheap Priest Skill Books in exchange for the rich loot from the multiplayer dungeon? Only a fool would choose to agree. After being rejected by Lin Lei, this captain immediately felt very embarrassed. He thought it was in the bag, but this unspecialized actually dared to reject him. His face darkened. ¡°Lin Lei, I invited you out of goodwill. Are you sure you want to reject me?¡± Lin Lei couldn¡¯t be bothered with him. He didn¡¯t say anything. He sneered. ¡°Very good. Let¡¯s see how far you can go as an unspecialized!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t let me see you in this instance dungeon.¡± Multiplayer Instance Dungeon. Since it was an Examination Instance Dungeon, there was also competition. All the teams were placed in the same instance dungeon. After the survival of the fittest, everyone would decide on their points. The final winner would obtain extremely generous rewards. However, there were also many risks, such as being sniped by other challengers. The captain¡¯s words were clearly aimed at Lin Lei. Chapter 14 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid at all. It was as if he did not hear him. He still maintained his previous coldness. This was not the first time he had heard such a threat. In the past, before his talent awakened, many people had said such harsh words. In reality, there were very few people who could do it. From his observations¡­ There should be many powerhouses among the class changers present. However, it definitely did not include this small-sized captain. After this interlude passed. Everyone was still waiting for the remaining people to arrive. It did not take long for everyone to gather. Soon, all 100 participants arrived. The examination venue was filled with people. More than a hundred people had already formed teams with each other. After everyone found the team, It was not long before the Instance Dungeon began. The students¡¯ excitement gradually turned into nervousness and fear. They all knew how terrifying a multiplayer Instance Dungeon was. However, this was a path that all of them had to take. The dungeon exam was just around the corner. Everyone became nervous. There were clearly more than a hundred people present. But no one spoke. Everyone tensed up and waited for the rules of the instance dungeon to appear. Among the students. Perhaps only Lin Lei¡¯s attitude was the calmest. They were about to officially enter a multiplayer dungeon. Lin Lei had long since made preparations. Medicines and equipment were available. His HP was also full. No matter what aspect it was, he had already prepared it very well. He was just waiting for an order. The countdown to the exam soon ended. A huge screen appeared in front of everyone. The dungeon rules were displayed on it. [Instance Dungeon Rules: Points will be awarded for killing the target. When the points reach more than 100, it will be considered a pass. Ordinary academies only need 100 to 200 points.] The eight big academies required more than 300 points. Killing other participants will allow you to inherit half of the points¡­ The rules were very long. During the pre-examination preparation stage, there were a few minutes for people to read the long dungeon rules. However, many of the people present had already seen the rules. Every year, someone would enter the exam duplicate. The rules of this Instance Dungeon had long been spread. Everyone had seen it before. Therefore, everyone knew all of this by heart. However, when they saw the rules appear, everyone was still extremely excited. Hearing it from others and seeing it with his own eyes were two different things. Moreover, the appearance of the dungeon rules also meant¡­ that It was finally about to begin! This time, they would be competing with the other schools for the dungeon examination. It could be considered as officially stepping out of the novice stage. It would also activate the dungeon ladder that was not available during the novice stage. The rankings of all the schools in the world would appear. This Multiplayer Instance Dungeon was the first chance to climb the Stairway to Heaven. Every year, many people would pay attention to today¡¯s ranking on the Heaven Ladder. Future experts and geniuses would often appear in this ranking. Therefore, the major families and organizations were also paying attention to the situation of this instance dungeon. If they could be ranked on the Heaven Ladder of the Instance Dungeon¡­ They would receive joint invitations from various large organizations and families. To most people, this was a chance for them to advance by leaps and bounds. If they could achieve the desired results. They would be able to enter the family they liked. From then on, they would be free of the identity as an ordinary student. Thus, becoming the center of attention in one fell swoop. Moreover, the ranking on the Stairway to Heaven would also become a symbol of strength. The ranking also determined the order of everything. For a moment, everyone¡¯s eyes were filled with ambition. They all wanted to get first place in the instance dungeon. Lin Lei¡¯s gaze swept across the excited crowd. He noticed that other than him, there was actually a lone wolf on the entire examination ground. After all, the school had repeatedly emphasized that this exam was a multiplayer dungeon. In the previous novice dungeons, those who were strong could also solo. However, for example, this exam dungeon.. It was almost impossible for him to do it alone. Even if they formed a team, there was a risk of being killed. Not to mention appearing alone in a pack of wolves¡­ Having no results was considered a light punishment. He would be killed in the instance dungeon until he truly died. It was not without precedent. The school had instructed them of the dangers already. Other than Lin Lei, there was actually another person who chose to do it alone. Lin Lei¡¯s gaze swept over. He was not mistaken. The other party was indeed alone. Moreover, she was a good-looking girl. Her face was as exquisite as a girl-next-door. Lin Lei was curious for a moment, but he didn¡¯t pay it any mind. After all, each person had their own choice. It was just like how Lin Lei had chosen to do it alone. Everyone gradually calmed down. The principal walked onto the stage again. ¡°The instance dungeon is about to begin. All of our teachers will be at the examination venue, waiting for your triumphant return.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t ask for meritorious service, but I only ask that you don¡¯t make any mistakes. Students, please pass and return.¡± ¡°Time¡¯s up. Let the exam begin!¡± The principal announced. In the next second, 100 people instantly entered the dungeon. There was a flash of white light. In the eyes of all the teachers, there was only an empty examination venue. All the students entered the exam duplicate. The principal had a heavy expression on his face. ¡°I wonder how many people will successfully pass this time.¡± The rule of the Instance Dungeon was that anyone with more than 100 points would pass. It sounded simple. However, every year, there are many students who are unable to reach it. It was not because they had not killed enough ferocious beasts. Instead, they were killed in a battle with other participants. This caused the points to be cleared to zero. They had also failed. Even if they could enter the dungeon again, they could not continue to participate in the class advancement exam. Their life was basically wasted. Many students also felt the same way. As a result, they could not accept it. They chose death. The principal hoped that more students would return this time. It was also a good thing for their school. The Archchancellor looked into the distance. For some reason, he thought of that Level 5 unspecialized. ¡°From Cai Qiang¡¯s class. I wonder how far he can go this time.¡± An indescribable emotion made him look forward to Lin Lei¡¯s performance. Even an unspecialized might be able to create a miracle. On the other side, Cai Qiang was looking at Lin Lei, whose white light had disappeared. He was also quite worried. If they had known that Lin Lei would come to participate in the examination so quickly¡­ He should have taken out his trump card and given it to Lin Lei. He wanted it to protect him. Cai Qiang was most worried about this student in his class. Usually, he wouldn¡¯t say what he had in mind. In addition, he was always very stubborn. Even though Lin Lei had been a teacher for many years, he couldn¡¯t tell what the students were thinking. Therefore, he could only do his best to take care of him. Unexpectedly, he still missed something. All the Professionists had entered the dungeon. Even though Cai Qiang was still worried. At this moment, he could only wait anxiously for Lin Lei to return. Light flashed. The eyes of all the players who entered the dungeon lit up. They closed their eyes. Until the next moment, he opened his eyes. It felt like a century had passed. The instance dungeon was about to begin! Chapter 15 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The instance dungeon had finally begun. Lin Lei opened his eyes. He did not look at his surroundings. Instead, he checked the system information immediately. [Positive Buff: Skill Level increased by 1] [Negative Buff: Misfortune, susceptible to monster attacks] He did not expect it to be such a powerful frontal buff. Lin Lei¡¯s skills were of a very low grade. However, his skills were very useful. However, this time, the level of the skill had increased. It also increased all his basic skills to excellent. According to the normal channels¡­ He needed to reach Level 10 to complete the profession mission. Only then could he increase the grade of his basic skills. But Lin Lei didn¡¯t need it at all. With this positive buff, he could learn skills at will. He no longer had to worry about not being able to upgrade his skills. Not only that! Not only did he not need to increase his grade¡­ After reaching Level 10, he could even complete missions to upgrade all his skills to Excellent Grade! Just the increase in grade allowed Lin Lei to be ahead of everyone by a large margin. Even if his level was lower than the others, he had a way to counterattack. Moreover, his leveling speed was not slow. At this moment, there was a sudden movement. Lin Lei was sighing with emotion. The negative skills he had acquired weren¡¯t bad. It saved him the trouble of looking for monsters everywhere. Previously, it was already difficult enough for him to search for monsters in the dungeon. This Instance Dungeon saved him the trouble of finding monsters. With this negative buff, he might encounter monsters after taking a few steps. Fortunately, this Instance Dungeon took a long time. There was no need to race against time like ordinary beginner dungeons. There were a total of 12 hours to slowly grind. But to Lin Lei, He didn¡¯t need to wait that long. It was enough to complete the mission. After all, this was a multiplayer dungeon. It was very simple for Lin Lei to obtain points. He did not plan to kill monsters himself. Instead, he chose to directly rob the participants. Especially those fat sheep who thought that everything would be fine if they formed a five-person team. Lin Lei had plenty of ways to deal with them. Just as he was pondering¡­ Suddenly, a team discovered Lin Lei. They quickly rushed towards him. Quite a few teams wanted to take Lin Lei out first. After all, he was only an unspecialized. There was no team yet. Who wouldn¡¯t want an experience bag like this? This team might be one of them. Lin Lei looked at the red arrowhead on the map that was advancing towards him. He did not choose to escape. Instead, he was prepared for battle. This time, the Multiplayer Instance Dungeon was in a city. It was the scorching noon. Lin Lei hid in the shadows of the buildings while waiting for the enemy to arrive. He did not know if these people were monsters that had been attracted over. Lin Lei thought as he took out his weapon, ready to fire a fireball at any moment. He would not hold back against these stupid people. Since he dared to attack Lin Lei, he had to be mentally prepared. Lin Lei didn¡¯t have to wait long. The arrow on the map quickly revealed a figure. A team of five people poked their heads out from the other side of the city wall. In a multiplayer dungeon. Whether it was a solo or a two-man party. There were even ten-man teams. They were all represented by an arrow. They did not really see the other party, nor did they know that the other party was a team formed by a few people. This team of five didn¡¯t come for Lin Lei. They just found a team on the map, very close. He planned to strike first. The scouting Thief saw a figure. He immediately said in the team channel: ¡°The opponent is one person. I think he¡¯s an unspecialized who soloed at the start.¡± When the others heard this, they lost interest. ¡°I thought I¡¯d run into another team.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect him to be an unspecialized?¡± ¡°Are these points enough to split?¡± They thought that their strength was not bad. As soon as they entered the Instance Dungeon, they actively hunted down other teams. They couldn¡¯t wait to reach the top of the rankings in an hour. Unexpectedly, the first person he encountered was actually Lin Lei. As soon as they saw that it was Lin Lei, they stopped being vigilant. The five-man team did not hide their tracks at all. They walked out casually. The leader carried a long sword on his back. It was obvious that he had chosen the warrior class. The others were also standard configurations. Their class could be seen from their equipment. Other than the captain warrior. There was the thief with daggers. An assassin dressed in black. And the priest with the staff. Lastly, there was a mage hiding at the back of the team. It was a very standard team configuration. Seeing that Lin Lei was alone, they showed extreme disdain. ¡°Let him go first. He¡¯s just an unspecialized. There¡¯s no point in killing him now.¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, Captain. Let¡¯s kill them when they¡¯re fattened up.¡± ¡°Let him kill a few more monsters. When he has some points, we¡¯ll come and harvest them.¡± These few people acted arrogantly. It was as though Lin Lei was a piece of cake. Faced with their mockery, Lin Lei laughed coldly. ¡°What a coincidence. I was thinking the same thing.¡± These five people¡¯s configuration standards¡­ From their positioning, it could be seen that they were an experienced team. No wonder they were so disdainful of Lin Lei. However, their equipment was all whiteboards. Clearly, in terms of luck, they couldn¡¯t compare to Lin Lei. In addition, Lin Lei was very confident. Before these five people walked over, he had already used the Identification Technique. None of them could fight. Be it health or defense, they were ridiculously low. Thus, he didn¡¯t hesitate at all when they mocked Lin Lei. This team was actually surprised at Lin Lei¡¯s sudden mockery. They were instantly enraged. ¡°An unspecialized dares to speak like this?¡± ¡°I¡¯ll kill you now!¡± The few of them prepared to attack. No matter how low the benefits were, they could not tolerate an unspecialized laughing at them. The assassin in the team charged towards Lin Lei. ¡°Kid, you¡¯d better know your place!¡± ¡°Kneel down and kowtow to us now. Perhaps we can leave your corpse intact!¡± ¡°An unspecialized dares to boast? Aren¡¯t you afraid that we¡¯ll cut off your tongue?¡± As the assassin spoke trash talk, he quickly moved, activated his skill, and arrived beside Lin Lei. The dagger in his hand was ready. As long as he was given another second, his dagger would be able to slice through Lin Lei¡¯s neck. The assassin¡¯s eyes flashed with excitement and bloodlust. From the start, he had used a killing move. He was determined to kill Lin Lei. However, Lin Lei had long been prepared for this move. With the staff in hand, the fireball had already entered the countdown. Lin Lei raised his hand, and a fireball quickly shot out. The moment the assassin approached, the fireball swallowed him. He didn¡¯t even have time to scream. The Assassin was instantly killed by the fireball. The smiles on the five people¡¯s faces froze. Earlier, when they saw the assassin charge forward, they had thought that they could directly deal with Lin Lei. After all, the assassin was an expert in the team. However, they did not expect this. An assassin who had already reached level-5 was actually insta-killed by Lin Lei with a Basic Fireball. They all widened their eyes. It was hard to believe what had just happened. Are you kidding me? A Level 5 Spellcaster killed a Level 5 Assassin with a fireball?! Everyone was dumbfounded. Chapter 16 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios At the entrance of the dungeon. All the teachers were anxiously waiting in front of the instance dungeon. This multiplayer dungeon would determine the school¡¯s ranking. Therefore, all the teachers hoped for their students¡­ To not be eliminated so soon. Cai Qiang looked at the entrance of the pocket dimension with a worried expression. If a student was eliminated in advance, they would appear here. Seeing Cai Qiang so worried, the teacher beside him asked, ¡°Do you want to guess which unlucky fellow will be the first to be eliminated this year?¡± Cai Qiang turned around and saw that it was the homeroom teacher of Class Five, who had always been at odds with him. This homeroom teacher was quite young, but he had a bad personality and was rather arrogant. He was always at odds with Cai Qiang. In particular, Lin Lei, who was in his class, was the first in both theory and simulation in the entire school. It even attracted his ridicule. However, Lin Lei had awakened his talent and obtained [Unspecialized]. This negative talent that almost limited him to death. Instantly, Huang Qizheng felt proud. Now, he wanted to see what Cai Qiang had to be arrogant about. Cai Qiang could not be bothered with him. Hearing what he said, he pretended not to hear it. The competition in the multiplayer dungeon was so intense that it was common for people to be killed by other participants. The school wanted to increase their points. Everyone was given two chances to enter the instance dungeon. According to normal dungeons, they would not be able to enter again after one kill. Generally speaking, their levels would not be cleared to zero unless they repeatedly failed to enter the dungeon and were killed. On one hand, the school wanted to increase the points, but on the other hand, they did not want the students to die. Therefore, they were given two chances each as a last resort. The reason why the teachers were waiting at the entrance of the instance dungeon was to calculate if the students under them still had a chance to continue farming points. Just as everyone was paying attention to the entrance of the Dungeon¡­ Suddenly, a white light appeared. Everyone immediately focused their gazes on the white light. They knew that this was the first person to be eliminated. Cai Qiang¡¯s heart instantly rose to his throat, afraid that Lin Lei would be eliminated. After all, he was just an unspecialized. It was only natural for them to be eliminated. However, he soon realized that it was an assassin he did not know. From the equipment on the other party¡¯s body, it could be seen that he was a professional. Cai Qiang heaved a sigh of relief. This eliminated assassin was the one Lin Lei had killed. He looked dumbfounded, not knowing what had happened. He was about to kill Lin Lei a moment ago. Why did he appear at the entrance of the pocket dimension the next moment? ¡®How exactly did he die?¡¯ Could it be that he had been killed by Lin Lei? When the others saw that someone had been eliminated, they hurriedly went forward. ¡°Student, how did you get eliminated?¡± The assassin did not know if he was right. If that was really the case, he would be embarrassed. As a level-five participant, he was actually killed by a level-five unspecialized. Moreover, he had no power to fight back. Hearing someone else¡¯s question, he blushed and was too embarrassed to say it. At this moment, Cai Qiang remembered who the assassin was. Wasn¡¯t it Wang Ming from Class Five? Cai Qiang turned around and looked at the ashen-faced Huang Qizheng. ¡°Isn¡¯t this a student from your class? Looks like he¡¯s the first unlucky person to be eliminated.¡± When Huang Qizheng heard Cai Qiang¡¯s words, his expression turned even uglier. Just now, he had wanted to mock Cai Qiang, thinking that Lin Lei would be the first to be eliminated. He didn¡¯t expect his subordinate, Wang Ming, to make him lose so much face. When Wang Ming saw the homeroom teacher standing to the side, he was so scared that his face turned pale. Huang Qizheng usually adopted a high-pressure policy in class. He showed no mercy to the students. When Wang Ming saw him at this moment, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. Huang Qizheng walked forward, and the others made way for him. Everyone was gloating. After all, if the students from the other classes were eliminated, it meant that the students from their class could advance one level. Huang Qizheng looked at Wang Ming, who had his head lowered, and couldn¡¯t hold back his anger. ¡°How did you get eliminated first? What happened?¡± Wang Ming shook his head, not daring to speak. When Huang Qizheng saw this, he scolded loudly, ¡°As a Level 5 Assassin with an Assassin Dagger, how can you lose to others?¡± ¡°Is that what I usually teach you?¡± ¡°As an assassin, you¡¯re actually the first to be sent back to the entrance of the Instance Dungeon. You¡¯re really as smart as a pig!¡± Faced with his teacher¡¯s anger, Wang Ming could only lower his head and accept it. Inside the instance dungeon. The remaining four were in disbelief. Lin Lei¡¯s damage output was truly too high. They only had time to see a string of bright red numbers explode above the assassin¡¯s head. They hadn¡¯t even seen how Lin Lei had attacked. They hadn¡¯t even discovered how Wang Ming had died. Wang Ming turned into a streak of white light. The captain was completely unconvinced. Even if Wang Ming was insta-killed¡­ He didn¡¯t feel that it was because Lin Lei was very strong. After all, Wang Ming was just an assassin. Assassins had high Attack but low HP, so it was normal for them to be insta-killed. He didn¡¯t believe that, since Lin Lei was just an unspecialized. He wouldn¡¯t be able to defeat so many of them. Even without a team member, it was more than enough to instantly kill an unspecialized. He threatened Lin Lei loudly, ¡°Don¡¯t be too arrogant! You, an unspecialized, can forget about defeating us!¡± However, just as he finished speaking, a flame suddenly flashed and another Cleric was instantly killed. The priest was standing directly behind him. However, the captain was completely unable to retaliate. There was no time to defend. Due to the buff effect of Lin Lei¡¯s fireball, As a result, his cooldown time was only 0.5 seconds! After being upgraded, the Fireball Spell was almost instantaneous. While the others were still in shock, Lin Lei kept firing fireballs. The members around the captain were killed one by one. Lin Lei¡¯s fireball was fast and powerful. Even if they were both Level 5. There were even many participants among them. They could not resist it either. Not to mention counterattacking, they did not even have the time to react when the fireball flew in front of them. They waited for the captain¡¯s turn. Lin Lei¡¯s fireball didn¡¯t instantly kill him. Because the captain was a Warrior, he had the thickest HP in the entire team. After being hit by Lin Lei¡¯s fireball, he didn¡¯t die. The HP bar above his head quickly went down, and in the end, he only had one-third of his health left. He sensed that he was about to die. The captain hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy. ¡°I¡¯m sorry!! Please be magnanimous and don¡¯t fight with a despicable person like me!¡± ¡°From now on, I¡¯ll avoid you whenever I see you!¡± ¡°Please spare my life!¡± ¡°I¡¯m willing to help if you need any help in the future!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t kill me!¡± After all, there were only two exam opportunities. The captain did not want to waste them easily. As for kneeling and begging for mercy, that was nothing to him. After all, as long as he could survive¡­ He had a way to obtain more benefits. Moreover, what did it matter if he knelt down to a powerhouse? The captain was very tactful. Unfortunately, his reaction was too late. If he had begged for mercy before Lin Lei flew into a rage, perhaps Lin Lei would have agreed. But his series of actions had already caused Lin Lei¡¯s heart to fill with killing intent. Thus, in the face of his captain¡¯s begging, Lin Lei didn¡¯t waste his breath. He raised the staff in his hand and instantly cast Fireball again, instantly killing the captain. Chapter 17 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Another white light flashed before his eyes. Lin Lei looked at the clean and refreshing ground in front of him and couldn¡¯t help but nod. These five arrogant fellows had already been sent back to the entrance of the instance dungeon. Lin Lei¡¯s solo farming had destroyed all their equipment. However, Lin Lei didn¡¯t expect that these people were all wearing whiteboards. However, there was also a good superior weapon. Lin Lei picked up the equipment that they had dropped. When he saw the shield on the warrior, He was surprised to find that this shield was much better than his newbie shield. This saved Lin Lei the trouble of farming monsters. This warrior still had something on him. Lin Lei immediately equipped himself. He took a look at the message. [Weapon: Shield of the Beast (Refined)] [Defense: 20/20] [Durability: 100/100] [Prerequisite: Level 5, Warrior] [Description: A leather shield made from the fur of wild beasts. Although it can¡¯t block fatal injuries, it¡¯s generally enough.] Consumes 1 Durability per hour after being attacked.] After equipping his shield, Lin Lei held a staff in one hand and a shield in the other. This made him feel more secure than before. In a multiplayer dungeon, other than paying attention to the sneak attacks of other players¡­ He also needed to attack all kinds of monsters. There were no other teams around now. Lin Lei simply began to kill the surrounding monsters. Multiplayer dungeons encouraged players to kill each other. However, there would still be points awarded for killing monsters. Lin Lei couldn¡¯t be bothered to look for those teams. With his current speed, it was one fireball per half a second. It was also easy to kill the monsters. He moved quickly. In just a moment, he had already killed a few monsters in the multiplayer dungeon. Just as Lin Lei was engrossed in farming monsters¡­ Suddenly, a notification sounded. [Emergency Mission: There are five bosses in the dungeon at the same time. Kill them within a limited time and you will receive double the points.] Lin Lei killed the howling wolf-headed monster in front of him. He opened the map. Of these five bosses, the other four were far away. Only one was not far from him. Lin Lei thought to himself, ¡®Perfect.¡¯ Wasn¡¯t this boss obviously here to give him experience points? Lin Lei immediately rushed over. The location of the Boss was the only empty space in this complex. On the way there, Lin Lei¡¯s map didn¡¯t show any red arrows. This meant that the other players were not assigned to this area. Perhaps the five-man team they encountered not long ago was just a coincidence. Lin Lei¡¯s speed was very fast. Not long after, he found the location of the Boss on the map. This Boss was a huge tree. It was planted on the empty space in the middle of the building. It was very eye-catching. As soon as Lin Lei arrived, he saw the bright red symbol on its head. This meant that to Lin Lei, this Boss¡¯ level was a little dangerous. He might not be able to win. Facing such a powerful Boss, Lin Lei¡¯s first reaction was to prepare all his equipment. Fortunately, he did not suffer any injuries along the way. Thus, Lin Lei didn¡¯t need to take any pills before the battle. His fingers moved extremely quickly. After a while, he checked his entire body. The durability of the weapon could last for a while. The durability of the other equipment on his body had also been replenished. Now, he could face the boss directly. Lin Lei once again confirmed that there were no other player teams on the map. He held the staff in one hand and moved the shield in front of him with the other. Then, Lin Lei charged out. The moment he rushed out, the tree discovered him. The boss let out a furious roar. [Monster: Proud Tree Folk] [Level: 6] [HP: 40] [Attack Power: 5~5] [Defense: 7] [Skills: Vine Entanglement, Flying Leaf Knife] [Description: The treants with their feet deeply planted in the ground don¡¯t like to move around. They hate enemies who invade their territory. They will fight to the death.] The message that flashed past only made Lin Lei glance at it. He stopped paying attention to it. The Boss discovered him and many tree roots emerged from the ground. These tree roots seemed to be alive. It coiled towards Lin Lei. As Lin Lei dodged, he carefully approached. However, there were too many tree roots. Lin Lei had nowhere to dodge. He calculated his remaining mental strength. Then, he generously sent a fireball at the tree root. As soon as the fireball touched the treeman¡¯s tree root, It was as if gasoline had been poured on it, and it instantly ignited. The boss let out a scream. The tree roots on the ground immediately decreased significantly. Taking advantage of this gap, Lin Lei advanced towards the treants. The treant endured the pain, and the tree crown that was like an arm shook again. Many leaves fell. However, they did not land on the ground. Instead, they seemed to have their own tracking ability. It locked onto Lin Lei. These leaves were another skill of the Boss. Unable to dodge in time, Lin Lei raised the excellent shield he had just obtained in front of him. This shield was not as big as a beginner¡¯s shield. But as long as Lin Lei curled up at the back, he would be able to cover him. A metallic sound came from the shield. The treant¡¯s leaf attacks were all blocked by the shield. If it landed on Lin Lei, he would definitely lose a few points of blood. He waited for a gap in the skill. Lin Lei counted the time it took for the leaves to be released. As he waited for the leaves to stop, he suddenly jumped out from behind the shield. The fireballs in his hands kept flying towards the boss. It was now within his range. The fireball touched the treant¡¯s tree body. It was like boiling oil. The treant screamed. It was constantly hit by Lin Lei. The leaves were charred by the fireball. The treant struggled to resist. However, the roots that protruded from the ground¡­ Was no threat to Lin Lei at all. Lin Lei had long since noticed the movements on the ground. He had already escaped before the tree root came out. While dodging the treants¡¯ attacks, he used Fireball. Fireball was the skill with the highest attack power. It was also very convenient to use. If he used a weapon like a sword¡­ Even if he could attack, he had to rely on the treant to be very close. If he was not careful, Lin Lei would be injured. Therefore, it was not a bad idea to use fireballs for long-range attacks. After a few rounds. The treant was finally killed by Lin Lei. Amidst the flames, the treant let out a final wail. It had been burned to ashes by Lin Lei. [Killed ¡°Proud Tree Folk¡±. Experience +30] He heard the system notification. Only now did Lin Lei heave a sigh of relief. He walked forward slowly. In the pile of ashes, there were many items dropped by the Boss. Lin Lei didn¡¯t have time to take a closer look. He only glanced at it briefly. He realized that these were basically props and equipment. As Lin Lei picked them up, he casually glanced at the equipment information. A few of them looked good. Unfortunately, they were all useless. Lin Lei didn¡¯t intend to keep the white-level equipment. He¡¯d sell them all. But when Lin Lei picked up the dagger that had fallen to the ground¡­ He was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, this Boss did drop something good. [Weapon: Shadow Dagger (Refined)] [Attack Power: 15/30] [Durability: 50/50] [Prerequisite: Level 5, Assassin] [Description: A weapon born from the shadows, just like its name. When used, no one will discover the user.] Consumes 1 Durability per hour after use.] Chapter 18 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios After obtaining an excellent dagger, Lin Lei was somewhat excited. This was the second excellent equipment he had obtained. It was too difficult to obtain good equipment. But now, he had another attack method. Unfortunately, this Boss did not drop a skill book. It would be great if he had Assassin-related skills. Right now, Lin Lei had no way of unleashing the full power of this dagger. After all, he did not have the Assassin skill. Lin Lei glanced at the map once more. The other bosses were too far away. Moreover, although he was not killed yet, However, there were probably many people around him. Lin Lei was not interested in these things. He planned to continue farming monsters. In a multiplayer dungeon, the experience points given by monsters were also very high. For example, the Boss just now. It gave him a total of 30 points. If it was in another instance dungeon. At most, he would only be given 25 points. When one¡¯s level was low, even a little EXP was very precious. Unmoved, Lin Lei continued to farm monsters. He kept hunting monsters. There were not many monsters on the map this time. If it was before obtaining the buff, it would still be a little troublesome for Lin Lei to kill the monsters in the dungeon. After all, he had to hunt them down one by one. These monsters did not have the habit of moving in groups like Slimes and Goblins. If the other teams wanted to kill monsters, they had to constantly change places. But Lin Lei was different this time. Because of the negative buff. As a result, Lin Lei didn¡¯t have to spend any effort to find prey. The monsters all swarmed towards him. Thus, it was quite easy for Lin Lei to fight monsters. Just by burying his head in grinding, Lin Lei¡¯s hands would go soft from all the killing. He raised the staff in his hand and never lowered it. After another hour. Lin Lei had finally leveled up. [Killed ¡°Mouse¡±. Experience +15] [Congratulations on reaching Level 6. You have received 1 attribute point, Spirit +1] It was too difficult to level up in the early stages. Even for a cheat-like existence like Lin Lei¡­ It could only be improved bit by bit. He holstered his weapon. It was getting late. Lin Lei was about to go and rest. Suddenly, there was a commotion in a building not far away. The noise of the group of people was very lively. Originally, there was only dead silence in the building. Moreover, due to the nature of this multiplayer dungeon, everyone else would remain quiet. They were afraid of being targeted by other teams. In the past hour or so, Lin Lei hadn¡¯t noticed any other teams appear. He thought that there were no longer teams here. He was even on his way to kill the other bosses. However, the voice at this moment piqued his interest. Could it be that a more powerful monster had appeared? Sometimes, hidden monsters would appear in instance dungeons. Just like the Boss Lin Lei had killed in the previous instance dungeon. Could it be that these people had found new monsters? Curious, Lin Lei walked over. He carefully hid on the roof. Not knowing the strength and numbers of the other party, Lin Lei decided to be more conservative. After all, he was alone now. It was very easy to encounter a five-man team. However, if they encountered a large team with about ten people, For Lin Lei alone to wipe them out¡­ It would be a bit impossible. Even if his fireball technique increased by another level, he might not be able to do it. Although the other party¡¯s arrow would soon appear on the map¡­ First, he had to use some detection skills to find out that there were hostile units nearby. That was why it was displayed on the map. Thus, as long as Lin Lei was not discovered by the other party, It would not appear in the other party¡¯s field of vision. He approached from the roof. Soon, he realized that it was a group of people surrounding the girl he had seen before. Before the dungeon began, just like Lin Lei, she was a lone wolf. The person in the lead was a famous person from the school. It was the captain who had come to invite Lin Lei not long ago. His expression was cold, and veins popped on his head. The girl who was surrounded by everyone was very calm. She wasn¡¯t afraid of being surrounded at all. The captain shook his fist angrily and sized up the girl with ill intentions. ¡°Hurry up and hand over the loot dropped by the boss, and I¡¯ll spare your life.¡± ¡°If you don¡¯t hand it over, don¡¯t blame me for being impolite!¡± The boy beside him immediately said, ¡°Zhang Zihai, don¡¯t stand on ceremony with her.¡± ¡°Hurry up and send her out of here!¡± ¡°We worked so hard to fight the boss at the front while she picked up the scraps at the back!¡± ¡°Look at that color. No matter what, it¡¯s an Excellent Equipment. We¡¯ve worked so hard for so long, but she actually dares to steal our things!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t think that we¡¯ll let you off just because you¡¯ve run a few kilometers. Even if you run to the ends of the world, we¡¯ll definitely chase after you!¡± The team members beside Zhang Zihai spoke one after another. They scolded the girl. Lin Lei listened for a long time on the roof before finally understanding. It seemed that the equipment dropped by these people after killing the Boss had been stolen. It was actually Excellent Equipment. It sounded pretty good. However, Lin Lei didn¡¯t plan to interfere in this matter. Since it was this girl, she had to bear the consequences of her evil deeds. It was only natural that she would be surrounded after stealing someone else¡¯s equipment. Lin Lei was about to descend from the roof. But suddenly¡­ The monsters that were originally wandering under the roof rushed towards him. In the beginning, Lin Lei had hidden himself very well. However, these monsters were under Lin Lei¡¯s negative buff. Soon, he noticed that something was wrong. In their eyes, Lin Lei¡¯s aura was extremely aggravating. Even if Lin Lei didn¡¯t do anything, the detrimental negative buffs had already maxed out the monsters¡¯ aggro for him. The monsters under the building all climbed upstairs. Such a strange movement also attracted Zhang Zihai and the others. They looked up in the direction the monster was climbing. He happened to see Lin Lei¡¯s figure. They had already discovered Lin Lei. Lin Lei hadn¡¯t expected himself to be so unlucky. Originally, he just wanted to watch the show, but he was involved. He was speechless. Many monsters had already climbed up in front of him. Under the influence of the negative buff, the monsters kept charging towards Lin Lei. They wanted nothing more than to kill Lin Lei. Right now, Lin Lei didn¡¯t want to get tangled up with these monsters. He raised the staff in his hand, and the fireball seemed to be free. They rained down on the monsters. Lin Lei instantly killed this group of monsters. When he turned around and was about to take a look at the people below, Lin Lei¡¯s gaze met theirs. The two parties looked at each other from afar. Lin Lei was completely speechless. The gazes of that group of people had already gathered on him. This time, he could not explain himself. It was impossible to leave secretly without being discovered. The people downstairs were also shocked. Zhang Zihai and the others did not expect that there would be another person so close to them. How on earth did he manage to sneak up here? Even with Zhang Zihai and the others¡¯ investigative skills, they still hadn¡¯t discovered Lin Lei. They were also a little confused. Could it be that Lin Lei and this girl were teammates? Chapter 19 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Chapter 19: Would You Believe Me If I Said I Was Passing By? Zhang Zihai looked at the person who suddenly appeared on the roof. He had already recognized him. Wasn¡¯t this the Lin Lei who had rejected him before entering the dungeon? Previously, when he had invited Lin Lei, the other party had been unwilling. It could be considered fate that they met in this instance dungeon. Zhang Zihai¡¯s gaze was cold. He immediately laughed loudly. ¡°Lin Lei, it seems that you already have your own team.¡± ¡°Did you give commands to this person?¡± His words rendered Lin Lei unable to answer. After all, Lin Lei had only come to watch the show. He did not know this girl and had never interacted with her. However, Zhang Zihai obviously wouldn¡¯t listen to his explanation. Lin Lei decided to keep his mouth shut. His silence seemed to give Zhang Zihai an answer. Zhang Zihai didn¡¯t care how Lin Lei answered. He said gloomily, ¡°Since you didn¡¯t give me face before entering the dungeon.¡± ¡°Then don¡¯t even think that I¡¯ll hold back on you.¡± ¡°Both of you, go out of the instance dungeon!¡± Zhang Zihai planned to regain his dignity. Previously, inviting Lin Lei to join his team was already a sure thing. He did not expect this arrogant number one student to reject him. He had lost face in front of his teammates. At this moment, Zhang Zihai¡¯s old and new grudges came together. He planned to directly deal with Lin Lei and the girl. As the captain of a team. Zhang Zihai had always been very proud. Although his face looked very much like that of a villain¡­ He always acted elegantly. He didn¡¯t expect himself to be so magnanimous as to be willing to accept an unspecialized like Lin Lei. However, the other party gave him a rejection. Ever since Zhang Zihai grew up, no one had ever rejected him. Especially when others knew that he was a member of the Zhang family. The power of the Zhang family made Zhang Zihai feel like a fish in water. Even after awakening his talent. No one dared to disobey him. But Lin Lei was the first person to do so! It made Zhang Zihai remember him. Before entering the Instance Dungeon, Zhang Zihai had mentioned it. He told Lin Lei not to encounter him. And what Lin Lei was doing now made Zhang Zihai even angrier. As for whether there was a relationship between the two of them. Zhang Zihai didn¡¯t care at all. Even if there was a misunderstanding, so what if he killed the wrong person? Lin Lei was nothing more than a trash who had awakened his Unspecialized talent. What right did he have to fight with the Zhang family? Zhang Zihai looked at Lin Lei, who was standing high above on the roof. The anger in his heart burned brighter and brighter. Lin Lei had only intended to take a look. Seeing that he could not escape, He decided to send a private message to the girl. ¡°The Excellent Equipment you picked up, what class is it used for?¡± Lin Lei pondered for a moment. The buff on his body, coupled with his attack power, As long as the opponent¡¯s equipment was a weapon. No matter what profession it was, it could be used by Lin Lei. As long as that girl was willing to hand it over to him. Lin Lei had a way to escape. At this moment, the girl had already been forced to a dead end. She had seen Zhang Zihai and the others fighting the boss. There was an opportunity to steal the equipment. However, he did not expect the other party to chase after him so closely. Seeing this, the girl could only keep fleeing. After all, he was facing a few participants of the same level as him. It was impossible for her to fight against so many people alone. He could only keep running. But in the end, he was still caught up. Perhaps the only person who could help him now was Lin Lei, who had suddenly appeared. Faced with Lin Lei¡¯s question, the girl told him the truth. ¡°This is a warrior¡¯s weapon, a long sword.¡± She had no intention of hiding anything. And from Lin Lei¡¯s question, the girl understood. They wanted to escape from the pursuit. Perhaps they could only rely on Lin Lei¡¯s unaffiliated abilities. No matter what weapon it was, Lin Lei could use it. However, the girl could not use the warrior¡¯s sword. After all, she was not in this profession. Lin Lei¡¯s eyes instantly lit up. Wasn¡¯t this a coincidence? Coincidentally, he had an excellent shield. Coupled with the Superior Longsword. A set of Warrior equipment appeared. This was very comfortable. Lin Lei thought about it and immediately gave the girl her conditions without hesitation. ¡°I¡¯ll make a deal with you. Give me the sword and I¡¯ll protect you from death.¡± Although this longsword was of Superior quality, it was still very rare. Especially when they were all newbies. It was quite difficult to unleash all the effects of the sword. In the later stages, everyone would basically have an Excellent-grade weapon. However, this was only the early stages. Most people used white-grade equipment. A few of them could be used well. However, the price of the girl¡¯s own death was also very serious. Not to mention leveling up during the novice period, even gaining one more experience point was very difficult. In comparison, girls were more concerned about their own deaths. Even if they lost an Instance Dungeon opportunity, they could still re-enter it. However, she was unwilling to let it go to waste. After all, for such a piece of equipment, she had not been fighting monsters recently. There were no points at all. Just like that, she wasted his chance to enter an Instance Dungeon. The girl was very indignant. She didn¡¯t hesitate for long, but as a last resort, she agreed to Lin Lei¡¯s conditions. In any case, if Lin Lei didn¡¯t make a move, she would be killed by them. At that time, the equipment would still fall into the hands of Zhang Zihai and the others. He might as well find another opportunity for Lin Lei to attack. She agreed. ¡°Alright, I promise you. Take it.¡± The girl used the trading function to give the Superior Longsword to Lin Lei. The transaction number was only symbolically filled in with a copper coin. Lin Lei chose to trade, muttering to himself. This girl was really innocent. She actually gave him the weapon first. She wasn¡¯t worried that he was lying to her. Lin Lei accepted the longsword speechlessly. He glanced at the information, and immediately cursed in his heart. [Weapon: Sword of Light (Superior)] [Attack Power: 50/60] [Durability: 100/100] [Prerequisite: Level 5, Warrior] [Description: A longsword condensed from the power of light, a powerful weapon that warriors must have.] Consumes 1 Durability per day after use.] This weapon¡¯s attack power was the strongest Lin Lei had ever seen. With this sword in hand, even if Lin Lei used the ¡°Basic Sword Techniques¡±, it would still be much better than using the fireball technique. After obtaining the weapon, Lin Lei immediately changed out of his staff. He wanted to put this equipment on to see its attributes. After all, placing it in his inventory and holding it in his hand still felt different. As soon as this weapon appeared in Lin Lei¡¯s hand, Zhang Zihai immediately recognized it. Zhang Zihai did not expect the two of them to trade equipment in front of him. Looking at the [Longsword of Light] in Lin Lei¡¯s hand, Zhang Zihai¡¯s face contorted in anger. ¡°All of you, attack. Kill Lin Lei first!¡± ¡°Whoever kills him will be rewarded with 10 gold coins!¡± In the novice period, everyone¡¯s equipment and funds were very scarce. Gold coins were even rarer. Only those descendants of wealthy families had surplus food. It was already very good if others could maintain a balance. Zhang Zihai¡¯s words immediately boosted their morale. The others raised their hands in agreement. For a moment, the atmosphere was tense. Everyone stared eagerly at Lin Lei. They were waiting for him to come down from the roof and kill him on the spot! Chapter 20 - You Forced Me, I Didnt Want to Wipe You Out Chapter 20: You Forced Me, I Didn¡¯t Want to Wipe You All Out After Zhang Zihai instructed everyone, he rushed forward first. As a disciple of the Zhang family, he was usually domineering outside. He was well-equipped. He looked different from head to toe. Zhang Zihai had the right to be arrogant. If ordinary people were to gather his equipment, they might not even be able to gather it in ten years. It was precisely because he had the support of his family that he could act so arrogantly. However, Zhang Zihai did not expect this. He led a group of people towards Lin Lei. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid at all. Instead, he struck first to gain the upper hand. At some point in time, Lin Lei had already replaced the [Longsword of Light]. He was holding a staff in his hand. Although it was just a whiteboard, It exerted an astonishing power in his hands. Lin Lei¡¯s fireball had finished accumulating energy. Before anyone could react. It was extremely fast, and he prioritized killing Zhang Zihai¡¯s priest. This move of his was even faster than everyone had imagined. Since they were going to start a PK, they had to kill the other party¡¯s healer. Otherwise, the Priests would be healing at the back. Lin Lei¡¯s endurance couldn¡¯t keep up. It would increase his enemies for no reason. Thus, Lin Lei¡¯s first choice was to kill the priest. Zhang Zihai and the others were shocked. ¡°He actually dared to attack first?¡± ¡°We haven¡¯t even rushed up, and he¡¯s already insta-killed our priest?!¡± Zhang Zihai¡¯s face was ashen. ¡°Brothers, be careful. This kid¡¯s fireball technique is quite good.¡± He had misjudged. He did not expect a mere unspecialized to be so powerful. With Zhang Zihai¡¯s order, everyone changed from a ferocious stance to a cautious one. After all, no one wanted to be the next person to be instantly killed. Unexpectedly, they had just switched to a defensive state. Lin Lei put away his staff. He switched to his shield and sword and charged at everyone. His way of fighting caught everyone off guard. After all, even if most people faced other teams, they would fight in groups of a few. If it was more than one against one, they would attack based on that person¡¯s profession. If the opponent was a mage, there would be a few people who would come forward to drain the opponent¡¯s mana. This was the first time Zhang Zihai and the others had encountered a scoundrel like Lin Lei. How could someone start with a staff and then use a warrior¡¯s weapon? They were instantly dumbfounded. And Lin Lei was much stronger than they had imagined. Although Lin Lei was covered in warrior equipment, However, his movements were abnormally agile. The assassin in Zhang Zihai¡¯s team wanted to keep up with Lin Lei. However, he was shocked to discover that Lin Lei¡¯s movements were unbelievably fast. He simply couldn¡¯t keep up with Lin Lei¡¯s rhythm. As an assassin, they actually couldn¡¯t keep up with an unspecialized. It was extremely humiliating for him! Even though Lin Lei was holding a shield, his speed was still very fast. Not to mention the assassin failing to keep up¡­ The others couldn¡¯t see Lin Lei¡¯s movements at all. The assassin watched helplessly as Lin Lei disappeared and reappeared in front of him. His actions were really too fast. The assassin tried to increase his speed to the maximum. The moment he activated his skill. A long sword seemed to have suddenly grown out of his neck. The assassin didn¡¯t have time to brake. It was as if he had sent himself up. He slit his own throat. Another member of Zhang Zihai¡¯s team was killed. Zhang Zihai was shocked and furious. He stood in front of his teammates, but Lin Lei didn¡¯t fight him head-on at all. As the captain, he could not protect his teammates. Zhang Zihai was furious. He roared angrily at Lin Lei, ¡°Stop if you¡¯re a man! Let¡¯s fight one-on-one!¡± He seemed to have forgotten what he had just said. Zhang Zihai wanted to personally kill Lin Lei. Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t listen to his nonsense. He was extremely fast. A moment later, Lin Lei arrived next to the mage. The mages in Zhang Zihai¡¯s team were also grade-5. The staff in his hand seemed to be even better than Lin Lei¡¯s staff. Lin Lei¡¯s lips curled into a cold smile. The longsword in his hand was thrust towards the mage¡¯s chest. The fragile mage was instantly killed by Lin Lei. As Lin Lei¡¯s equipment surpassed everyone else¡¯s, With the advantage of his equipment and his own buff, Even if Lin Lei was only using the ¡°Basic Sword Techniques¡±¡­ It was also very difficult to defeat him. Not to mention defeating him, even keeping up with Lin Lei¡¯s movements was very strenuous for Zhang Zihai and the others. Zhang Zihai was shocked. He was unable to stop Lin Lei. They could only watch as their teammates were dealt with by Lin Lei one by one. He couldn¡¯t do anything. The longsword in Lin Lei¡¯s hand seemed to be dancing. He could clearly see his movements from time to time. But there was no way to avoid it. In addition, other than using longswords, Lin Lei had no other choice. A fireball would suddenly appear in his hand. He switched equipment extremely quickly. One moment, he would use his longsword to attack, and the next moment, he would use his fireball technique. It was extremely difficult for Zhang Zihai to block Lin Lei. He could only watch helplessly as Lin Lei attacked his teammates. For the first time, Zhang Zihai felt despair. He had never been able to face such an opponent in his life. It was as if a tall mountain was standing in front of him. No matter how Zhang Zihai struggled, in the end, he was only harvested by Lin Lei. Zhang Zihai felt like he was dreaming. His teammates died one by one. However, he did not even have the time to scream. Silently, they were harvested by Lin Lei. No matter how Zhang Zihai tried to stop him. He couldn¡¯t even touch the corner of Lin Lei¡¯s clothes. The weapon in Lin Lei¡¯s hand kept changing. No one could guess what he would use next. At some point in time. Zhang Zihai¡¯s teammates had all disappeared. Lin Lei¡¯s figure appeared in front of him. Zhang Zihai chased after Lin Lei for a long time. At this moment, he should be happy to see him appear before him. But fear filled his heart. Zhang Zihai wanted to scream. But he only saw Lin Lei¡¯s expressionless face enlarge in front of him. A red fireball appeared in front of him. A white light flashed. Zhang Zihai was left with a pile of ashes. His team was completely wiped out. The white light in front of Zhang Zihai dissipated. He could no longer see Lin Lei. He could only see a few teammates who were still in shock at the entrance of the dungeon. Zhang Zihai was stunned for a long time. He could not accept the fact that he had been killed. Although there was still one more chance to enter the dungeon. However, he was traumatized. Zhang Zihai waited for a long time before he mustered up the courage to look at the Instance Dungeon Stairway. The so-called Instance Dungeon Stairway was the Instance Dungeon Points Ranking that would be activated when they entered the Instance Dungeon. It would only be activated after entering a multiplayer dungeon. Zhang Zihai looked at the dungeon scoreboard. His mouth opened wider. What did he see? There was a name written on the dungeon scoreboard. [First place: Lin Lei] Lin Lei was actually first place! Zhang Zihai was in disbelief. How many people had he killed? Perhaps before he had met them¡­ Lin Lei had already killed many teams. Zhang Zihai¡¯s heart was branded by Lin Lei, and he felt deep fear. But on the other hand, he also felt extremely angry. If not for the fact that Lin Lei had obtained Excellent equipment¡­ How could they lose? How could Zhang Zihai lose to a mere unspecialized! Chapter 21 - Dont Misunderstand, Im Not a Good Person Chapter 21 Don¡¯t Misunderstand, I¡¯m Not a Good Person Zhang Zihai appeared in the square. All eyes were on him. His teammates who had already died looked at Zhang Zihai with fear. They didn¡¯t expect that the person they thought was an unspecialized was actually a tough nut to crack. Zhang Zihai¡¯s appearance shocked his teammates even more. After all, Zhang Zihai was the strongest person in their team. If even Zhang Zihai was killed, then the unspecialized would get half of their gains in the dungeon. Zhang Zihai was still immersed in shock. How could he do that? How was it possible for Lin Lei to obtain first place in this instance dungeon? Zhang Zihai couldn¡¯t believe it. He didn¡¯t want to believe it. The abnormality of their team of five had already been discovered by the other students. ¡°Isn¡¯t that Zhang Zihai?¡± ¡°Wasn¡¯t his awakened talent very powerful previously?¡± ¡°Could someone have killed them out of the instance dungeon?¡± ¡°My God, it¡¯s only been a few hours since the game started and he¡¯s already been killed.¡± ¡°When did Zhang Zihai become so weak?¡± The other candidates who had been eliminated in advance saw that Zhang Zihai had fallen into the same situation as them. They all laughed mockingly. Zhang Zihai usually acted arrogantly. They did not expect him to end up like them. So what if he was arrogant? Wasn¡¯t he still kicked out in a few hours? Zhang Zihai had already returned to his senses. He heard the students¡¯ discussions. Anger flashed across his face. Zhang Zihai didn¡¯t want to argue with these people. However, he heard the mockery of these students. Zhang Zihai turned to look at the crowd. Those people who would usually give him face and not dare to speak in the past were now talking openly and discussing. It was as if they didn¡¯t care at all that Zhang Zihai would hear him. Seeing this, Zhang Zihai¡¯s heart burned with anger. As a disciple of the Zhang family. When had he ever fallen into such a situation? He was actually mocked by these cannon fodder? Zhang Zihai was even more furious. Rubbish. What did they know? With Lin Lei¡¯s terrifying combat power, even if Zhang Zihai resisted with all his might, He couldn¡¯t beat him either. At the thought of this, Zhang Zihai was even angrier. Compared to these people who mocked him. Zhang Zihai hated the detestable Lin Lei even more. If not for him. How could he be mocked? If not for Lin Lei. How could Zhang Zihai waste a chance to come back from the dungeon? All of this was Lin Lei¡¯s fault. Zhang Zihai thought to himself. ¡°This vengeance will be mine! Don¡¯t let me see you again. ¡°Next time, I¡¯ll make sure you die a horrible death!¡± On the other side, Zhang Zihai was immersed in anger. In the instance dungeon. Lin Lei swept through the equipment dropped by Zhang Zihai¡¯s team. He glanced at the girl beside him. The girl heaved a sigh of relief. She did not expect the solo expert she had encountered to be so powerful. ¡°Student, my name is Jiang Chuqiu. I still don¡¯t know your name.¡± The girl relaxed and greeted Lin Lei with a smile. Lin Lei waved his hand, not answering her. Instead, he turned his attention to the map and whether any other ferocious beasts had appeared nearby. Seeing that Lin Lei was ignoring her, Jiang Chuqiu wasn¡¯t discouraged. She continued with a smile, ¡°Thank you for saving my life. Take that weapon just now. I don¡¯t need it anyway.¡± ¡°It¡¯s my bad luck that I didn¡¯t pick up any equipment that suits me.¡¯ ¡°Student, don¡¯t you want to be friends? It won¡¯t be easy for you to move around alone in this instance dungeon, right? Although I am not strong, I can still help you out.¡± Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t care at all. Lin Lei was carefully observing. Rather than saying that Lin Lei was cautious, it made Jiang Chuqiu feel more at ease. After confirming that there was no one else around, Lin Lei relaxed his vigilance. He looked at Jiang Chuqiu. Jiang Chuqiu thought that Lin Lei was going to introduce himself to her. Lin Lei¡¯s words were beyond her expectations. ¡°I¡¯m not a good person either.¡± Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s smile froze on her face. Could it be that after Lin Lei killed the five-man team, he wanted to continue killing her, this small fish? Jiang Chuqiu was a little afraid. Her face also showed astonishment. However, Lin Lei once again exceeded Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s expectations. ¡°This equipment is not enough to repay you for your life-saving grace.¡± Jiang Chuqiu became more cautious. She asked carefully, ¡°So what else do you need?¡± Lin Lei said, ¡°If you give me another piece of equipment, I¡¯ll forget about this matter.¡± Lin Lei was now an unspecialized. The demand for equipment was even greater than other professions. To him, Excellent-grade equipment was naturally top-notch. But even if it wasn¡¯t Excellent-grade equipment, it was still useful to Lin Lei. From the time Jiang Chuqiu was able to escape from the five-man team. It could be seen that her strength was not very bad. Since her strength was not bad, she should have other equipment on him. Compared to saving her life, this bit of remuneration could be given, right? Faced with Lin Lei¡¯s forced buying and selling¡­ Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s heart sank. ¡°This boy looks so handsome, but I didn¡¯t expect him to be so stingy.¡± ¡°Is this what experts are like?¡± She had already seen Lin Lei¡¯s strength. She didn¡¯t dare to act rashly in front of Lin Lei. Zhang Zihai¡¯s team of five chased him all over the field. Lin Lei had taken care of it all by himself. Although there was also the convenience of equipment. This also meant that Lin Lei¡¯s strength was extremely terrifying. It was impossible for Jiang Chuqiu to defeat him. Even if she was still dissatisfied¡­ Jiang Chuqiu rummaged through her bag and finally took out a pair of Excellent-grade boxing gloves. This was the best equipment she had. If it weren¡¯t for the fact that Jiang Chuqiu couldn¡¯t use it, She had already equipped it. However, her life was more important now. Jiang Chuqiu reluctantly handed the gloves to Lin Lei. Lin Lei glanced at it and accepted it without being picky. [Weapon: All-metal Fist Gloves (Excellent)] [Attack Power: 10/15] [Durability: 100/100] [Prerequisite: Level 5, Striker] [Description: A gauntlet made of metal. Its hardness is guaranteed.] Consumes 1 Durability per hour after starting the attack.] Although it was not as stunning as the Superior Rank, To Lin Lei, this was a good choice. In addition, Lin Lei could also equip it. Compared to the pitiful person who could only use gloves. Lin Lei could equip his gloves and use his longsword at the same time. it could not double his attack power, Although However, it could save him the trouble of replacing his equipment. Seeing Lin Lei accept the gloves, Jiang Chuqiu let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lin Lei was quite satisfied with her gloves. Jiang Chuqiu no longer had any intention of making friends with Lin Lei. Who knew if Lin Lei would suddenly want to kill her again? After all, death could also result in equipment dropping. She turned to leave. Lin Lei took the initiative to speak. ¡°I¡¯ll make you a deal.¡± ¡°I can help you. I just need you to lure the monsters in front of me.¡± ¡°All the items dropped by the monsters belong to me. As for the points, I¡¯ll split them 30-70.¡± ¡°You take 30, I take 70.¡± Chapter 22 - Experience Points Rising Like A Rocket Chapter 22 Experience Points Rising Like A Rocket There was a reason why Lin Lei was willing to make this deal with Jiang Chuqiu. It wasn¡¯t because Jiang Chuqiu was good-looking. All he could think about now was how to farm monsters more efficiently. Although the buff he had could allow him to wait for the monsters to come knocking on his door, However, it was still too slow. After all, only the surrounding monsters had discovered Lin Lei. That was why they took the initiative to attack. Even if it was such a powerful debuff. Aggro mechanisms also need to be followed. The aggro mechanism of the pocket dimension was the same as the games Lin Lei had played in the past. He entered the monster¡¯s field of vision. Or make a noise to let the monster notice. Only then would the monsters attack. If they were too far away¡­ The monsters wouldn¡¯t attack Lin Lei either. Therefore, in order to kill monsters more efficiently, Lin Lei still needed someone to help him lure the monsters. Initially, he was still worried about working with others. After all, other than him, there were basically several parties in this instance dungeon. Now, he met Jiang Chuqiu, a student who was also alone. Because he had an idea. After Lin Lei finished speaking, Jiang Chuqiu stopped in her tracks. Although Lin Lei was a little stingy, And he had a big appetite. However, the points he mentioned still tempted Jiang Chuqiu. After all, she was a solo player. If she wanted to score high enough¡­ It was still very difficult. Moreover, she was fighting for the spoils of war. It had been a long time since he had killed monsters. If he wanted to reach more than 100 points, It was even more difficult. The Instance Dungeon was almost halfway through. However, Jiang Chuqiu was still a zero. She weighed her options for a long time. Though she couldn¡¯t get any equipment¡­ But at the very least, she could ensure that she passed. It was still very cost-effective. Jiang Chuqiu nodded after considering the pros and cons. ¡°Alright, then I¡¯ll make this deal with you.¡± Jiang Chuqiu was able to escape from Zhang Zihai¡¯s team of five. Her ability to escape was not ordinary. Therefore, there was no danger in luring the monsters. She only needed to run away easily. One could obtain points. Jiang Chuqiu felt that she had profited. Jiang Chuqiu agreed. Lin Lei brought her to a nearby vantage point. This was the terrain that Lin Lei had observed. As long as they attacked the monsters from above. The monsters couldn¡¯t hit Lin Lei either. The killing efficiency was much faster. After he got into position, he gave Jiang Chuqiu an order. ¡°Go and lure all the nearby monsters over. Attract as many as there are in the surroundings.¡± Hearing Lin Lei¡¯s words, Jiang Chuqiu was still somewhat bewildered. How many monsters did he plan to kill alone? However, since she had agreed to the deal, Jiang Chuqiu went down to attract the surrounding monsters. The monsters nearby had already been cleared by Zhang Zihai¡¯s team. Therefore, when Jiang Chuqiu went to lure the monsters¡­ He only found three [Wandering Lizards]. The three monsters were not weak. If Jiang Chuqiu was alone, she wouldn¡¯t even dare to approach them. At this moment, when she thought of Lin Lei¡¯s terrifying strength¡­ Jiang Chuqiu braced herself and went forward to lure the monsters. He wondered if Lin Lei could withstand it. Jiang Chuqiu lured the wave of monsters to the designated location. Actually, she had already sensed it from Lin Lei¡¯s fighting style. Lin Lei was most likely an unspecialized. In the public¡¯s impression, unspecialized had always been the weakest profession. Not only could he not use skills, Moreover, there was very little room for improvement. At the same time, it was necessary to take into account the output of all skills. How could a normal person have so much energy? Moreover, there were not that many resources to squander. But in Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s eyes. Lin Lei, on the other hand, was able to operate smoothly. The three monsters she had painstakingly lured over. They didn¡¯t pose any obstruction to Lin Lei at all. Lin Lei first used ¡°Fireball¡± to remove more than half of the monsters¡¯ HP. Then, he switched to the Superior Longsword. The [Longsword of Light] in his hand easily cut into the monster¡¯s body. Jiang Chuqiu saw these as difficult monsters. But under Lin Lei¡¯s hands, it was as if he was chopping melons and vegetables. In just a moment, Lin Lei effortlessly ended the battle. The three terrifying monsters did not even have time to launch a single attack. Jiang Chuqiu watched the scene unfold with her mouth agape. But Lin Lei had already lowered his head and picked up the items that had dropped from the monster. After cleaning up the battlefield, he walked toward Jiang Chuqiu. Jiang Chuqiu subconsciously took a step back. What kind of monster was this? He had actually killed three powerful dungeon monsters alone. It was impossible for Jiang Chuqiu to kill a single monster alone. Seeing Jiang Chuqiu like this, Lin Lei was somewhat speechless. ¡°These are the points for killing the monster.¡± ¡°You¡¯ve lured too few monsters. Try to lure more.¡± ¡°These monsters aren¡¯t enough to kill.¡± Lin Mei casually transferred Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s share of points over. Jiang Chuqiu came back to her senses when she saw the points. But in the next moment, she was shocked by Lin Lei¡¯s words. These were three Level 5 [Wandering Lizards]! Lin Lei actually said that it wasn¡¯t enough. Even though Jiang Chuqiu knew that Lin Lei was very strong, she couldn¡¯t help but question him. ¡°Three monsters is already a lot.¡± ¡°If there are too many monsters, it¡¯s easy to be targeted.¡± ¡°My combat ability isn¡¯t strong. Can you handle it alone?¡± Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t want Lin Lei to fail either. What if too many monsters attacked Lin Lei, causing him to die? Then the deal would be over. However, Lin Lei didn¡¯t seem to care at all. ¡°Go lure the monsters. Lure as many as you can.¡± Jiang Chuqiu wanted to say something else, but seeing Lin Lei¡¯s relaxed expression¡­ She could only shut her mouth and continue to pull monsters. Jiang Chuqiu muttered to herself. ¡°He really doesn¡¯t want to live anymore.¡± She ran a little further this time. In order to satisfy Lin Lei, Jiang Chuqiu used all her movement techniques to lure the monster. This time, it was still a Level 5 Roaming Lizard. However, Jiang Chuqiu had already lured him to the limit of his ability to lure monsters. A total of seven lizards followed Jiang Chuqiu crazily. She felt the pressure coming from behind her, and her face turned pale. Finally, she managed to lure the monsters to the designated location. Jiang Chuqiu hurriedly shouted, ¡°Lin Lei! Quickly do it!¡± Right now, Lin Lei was slowly drawing out his [Longsword of Light]. These seven monsters barely piqued his interest. With the Superior Longsword and the frontal buff of this dungeon, Lin Lei¡¯s attack speed and power had both increased by more than one level. His Basic Sword Techniques had also increased by one level. Lin Lei held the [Longsword of Light] in his hand as he advanced. He directly rushed into the group of monsters. Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s eyes widened. Lin Lei kept brandishing the sword in his hand. His agility and movements far exceeded Level 5. The [Wandering Lizard] could not keep up with his movements at all. In just a moment, the seven [Wandering Lizards] were all killed by Lin Lei¡¯s sword. These monsters didn¡¯t even touch a single strand of Lin Lei¡¯s hair. Jiang Chuqiu widened her eyes in shock. Could she be looking at a god? With the death of the seven roaming lizards, the points on Lin Lei¡¯s body jumped. The increase in points on his body attracted the attention of the people outside the arena. Chapter 23 - Please, Take Me As Your Disciple! Chapter 23: Please, Take Me As Your Disciple! Master! ¡°What kind of monster is that Lin Lei?¡± ¡°Oh my god, the scoreboard has been updated again!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t tell me a few teams have been feeding him.¡± Lin Lei¡¯s surging points attracted the gazes of the eliminated students. They had been eliminated in the dungeon. At this moment, he was waiting for the cooldown time to be up before entering the dungeon. When they had nothing to do, they would watch the scoreboard. However, ever since a certain moment began. The points of first place on the scoreboard kept changing. More people noticed this place. In the beginning, Lin Lei only had 50 points. However, two hours passed. Lin Lei¡¯s points didn¡¯t seem to be slowing down at all. Every time it refreshed, there would be an additional 10 points. Every time the points increased, it would cause the students to exclaim. Lin Lei was firmly ranked first on the dungeon scoreboard. Two hours later. His points had reached a terrifying number. Everyone looked at the rankings and their jaws almost dropped. [First place: Lin Lei, 312 points] [Second place: Feng Xinxue, 200 points] Lin Lei had actually reached the requirement to enter one of the eight academies. It was more than 100 points higher than Feng Xinxue, who was in second place. Not only that. Jiang Chuqiu took advantage of Lin Lei. She was originally only ranked 66th. It was also a pitiful 13 points. And that was even what Lin Lei had given her. But two hours later. Jiang Chuqiu was actually brought to 15th place by Lin Lei. His points had also reached the standard. [15th place: Jiang Chuqiu, 110 points] This was really a rocket-like improvement. The examinees in the examination hall were all dumbfounded. They even felt that Lin Lei was cheating. Otherwise, how could it have increased so quickly? The new examinees were dumbfounded, not knowing what was going on. As soon as they were eliminated, they saw the shocked expressions of everyone present. They didn¡¯t understand what made them so surprised. Inside the instance dungeon. A white light flashed. Lin Lei had finally reached level 7. Relying on Jiang Chuqiu to lure monsters, his efficiency was much higher than usual. However, as the gap between his level and the [Wandering Lizard] widened, If Lin Lei, who was two levels higher, went to kill a level 5 monster, the experience points he would get would be too low. He planned to move to another place. After all, there were other monsters of higher levels in this instance dungeon. During this period, Jiang Chuqiu was so shocked by Lin Lei¡¯s relaxed attitude that she prostrated herself on the ground. How could someone be so powerful? All the weapons were under Lin Lei¡¯s control. It was as if it was tailor-made for him. Jiang Chuqiu was no longer as alert as before. She completely and crazily worshiped Lin Lei. While Lin Lei was deep in thought, Jiang Chuqiu voiced her thoughts. ¡°I saw that you¡¯ve used an assassin¡¯s weapon before. The technique you displayed is quite impressive.¡± ¡°Can you take me as your disciple?¡± Jiang Chuqiu looked at Lin Lei with sparkling eyes. Lin Lei had been thinking about where he should go to continue farming monsters. Hearing Jiang Chuqiu say this, he was stunned. There was no special reason for Lin Lei to use an assassin¡¯s weapon. It was purely because the damage of an Assassin¡¯s weapon was high. Coupled with that dagger, it could also increase agility. With these bonuses, coupled with his frontal buff¡­ Lin Lei could use his movement technique to avoid being focused on by the monsters. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for him to shuttle among the monsters with other weapons. It was easy to be attacked by other monsters. He had to avoid such a situation when he was soloing monsters. One of the moves of the [Wandering Lizard] would also nail him to the ground. If he was hit, the other lizards would control him one after another. No matter how powerful Lin Lei was, it was very likely that he would fail. That was why Lin Lei had chosen an assassin weapon that placed more importance on technique. Lin Lei revealed a hesitant look. He did not agree immediately. Although Jiang Chuqiu was very useful and tactful¡­ But Lin Lei had no intention of having more contact with Jiang Chuqiu. Jiang Chuqiu immediately understood what Lin Lei was thinking from his expression. She gritted her teeth. ¡°As long as I can acknowledge you as my master, the monster points will belong to you. I don¡¯t want even 10%!¡± ¡°Just let me practice my assassin skills with you.¡± Lin Lei didn¡¯t lack these points. Even if he had 30% more points, it was basically nothing to Lin Lei. After all, with his current farming efficiency, Although it was better to have more points, it was not that attractive. Jiang Chuqiu had already shown her sincerity. But seeing that Lin Lei still looked uninterested¡­ She could only use all her trump cards. ¡°As long as you agree to be my master.¡± ¡°I can pay you a lot of money!¡± ¡°My father is the boss of the Jiang Clan Chamber of Commerce.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t have to worry that I¡¯m not paying you enough. The amount will definitely satisfy you.¡± Initially, Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t want to expose her identity. She only wanted to rely on her own strength to pass this assessment. Unexpectedly, she met a fierce person like Lin Lei. After Jiang Chuqiu changed her class to an assassin. But because there was no other way. More often than not, Thief techniques were used. When facing monsters, she was even more at a loss. Jiang Chuqiu did not like to fight head-on. Awakening the Assassin profession was also what she had planned to choose from the beginning. However, during this period of time, she had not displayed the power that an Assassin should have. Jiang Chuqiu had planned to go back and find someone to teach her. But now, she saw Lin Lei¡¯s assassin skills. She was completely convinced by Lin Lei. Therefore, even if she had to expose his identity¡­ Jiang Chuqiu also had to take Lin Lei as her master. Facing Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s enthusiasm, Lin Lei pondered for a moment. Hence, he agreed to take her in as a disciple. It was not because Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s identity was precious. The reputation of the Jiang Chamber of Commerce was like thunder to Lin Lei¡¯s ears. The Jiang Clan Chamber of Commerce was the number one chamber of commerce in Linhai City. All the resources in Linhai City were under the control of the Jiang Corporation. Whether it was the circulation of equipment in the Instance Dungeon. It was also the sale of various skill books. All of them had to pass through the hands of the Jiang Clan Chamber of Commerce before they could circulate on the market. There were also many people who believed that the Jiang Clan Chamber of Commerce was the underground emperor of Linhai City. Such a powerful chamber of commerce. It was not bad to befriend it. Lin Lei said, ¡°Since you want to learn from me so much, I¡¯ll teach you.¡± Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s eyes lit up. She looked at Lin Lei with a burning gaze, screaming frantically in her heart. She was about to give up. After all, Jiang Chuqiu had already taken out all the chips she could. Unexpectedly, Lin Lei actually agreed! Seeing her overjoyed expression, Lin Lei poured a bucket of cold water on her. ¡°Don¡¯t celebrate too soon.¡± ¡°My rate is on a time basis.¡± For the large sum of money that Jiang Chuqiu had promised¡­ Lin Lei didn¡¯t take it to heart. After all, to him, a one-time payment would take him a lot of time. This deal was too cost-effective in her favor. It was more in his interest to charge according to the time. Chapter 24 - Its Fine to Kill Monsters With Low Health, Right? Chapter 24 It¡¯s Fine to Kill Monsters With Low Health, Right? Jiang Chuqiu agreed without hesitation. She didn¡¯t think that Lin Lei¡¯s request was too much. After all, she had seen many experts since she was young. Her taste had already been raised to be good. Seeing Lin Lei¡¯s actions, He knew that the other party was a very powerful person. To be able to make an expert like Lin Lei his master¡­ It was not too much to charge according to the time. Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t just feel that she had profited. Seeing Lin Lei¡¯s cold expression¡­ She felt that he was even more unusual. If it was the boys in her class. One word from Jiang Chuqiu was enough to make them happy for a long time. But Lin Lei didn¡¯t react to Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s offer. He seemed to only be thinking about leveling up and farming points. But with Lin Lei¡¯s performance¡­ Jiang Chuqiu was relieved. Even if Lin Lei was a little despicable. It was also more pleasing to the eye than those lecherous people. Since Lin Lei had agreed to Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s request, he continued the work. He immediately carried out the plan. While Jiang Chuqiu was luring the monsters, Lin Lei had already observed the nearby terrain. He had already chosen a place. It would be the place to level up later. Although he wanted Jiang Chuqiu to learn techniques from him, Lin Lei had no intention of slowing down his leveling speed. Therefore, he chose a low building complex with a complicated terrain. Through Lin Lei¡¯s observation, he discovered the monsters here. It is a small red rodent. It looked like a rat, but from the obvious mutation, It was also much more lethal than ordinary rats. Lin Lei conveniently checked the monster¡¯s information. [Monster: Mutated Rat] [Level: 5] [Health: 10] [Attack Power: 7~8] [Defense: 5] [Skills: Bite, Summon Companions] [Description: Mutated rats that are infected like to appear in groups.] The characteristics of this monster made it convenient for Lin Lei. Although the information said rats, But upon closer inspection, these [Mutated Rats] were as big as two Lin Lei¡¯s. Its huge body coupled with its scarlet eyes gave off a huge pressure. Lin Lei was only at Level-7 now. If he wanted to fight these monsters, he had to be careful. If not for the buff, Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t have chosen such a dangerous method. Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s face turned pale when she saw these filthy monsters. She hated monsters that looked like this. But Lin Lei had brought her over. No matter how unwilling she was, she could only lower her head. Lin Lei drew the dagger from his waist and said to Jiang Chuqiu, ¡°In a while, when I fight monsters, I will leave behind monsters with only low health. You will be in charge of killing them.¡± As soon as he said this. Jiang Chuqiu was stunned. A monster with low health for her to kill? ¡®Why is that?¡¯ Although she didn¡¯t understand what Lin Lei meant, Jiang Chuqiu still nodded in agreement. After all, Lin Lei was her master now. His thoughts naturally had their own reasons. After speaking, Lin Lei charged forward. The dagger in his hand emitted a faint glow. This was the assassin dagger that Jiang Chuqiu had seen Lin Lei use. Although it was only excellent equipment that had just dropped, fortunately, it had a lot of bonuses and was not bad to use. [Weapon: Metal Dagger (Refined)] [Attack Power: 5/10] [Durability: 30/30] [Prerequisite: Level 5, Assassin] [Description: This is a dagger forged from metal. It is loved by assassins. As for the reason why assassins like it, you will know after using it.] Every 10 minutes of battle consumes 1 Durability.] Sometimes, equipment did not have all the effects written out. If one did not equip it, one would not know what hidden functions it had. This situation is commonly referred to as ¡°opening the blind box.¡± Only those who had reached Superior and above would have a partial display. This also led to some equipment being called cursed equipment. This was because there would be serious negative effects after equipping it. Fortunately, Lin Lei¡¯s dagger had specially strengthened the buff for assassins. Lin Lei was now able to easily deal with a level 8 monster. He just needed a few more slashes. However, this time, he did not kill the monster directly. To reduce the health of these [Mutated Rats] to a critical level was the only challenge for Lin Lei. Because he was too strong. If he was not careful, he might directly kill the monster. Fortunately, after the death of a [Mutated Rat], Lin Lei had mastered the technique. His movements were light, and he quickly sent a mutated rat with low health to Jiang Chuqiu. Jiang Chuqiu held the dagger in her hand and watched nervously as her scarlet eyes flickered above her head. After the [Mutated Rat] was killed to critical HP, it fell into a crazy state. Agility and Attack Power increased, and Defense decreased significantly. Jiang Chuqiu fought with great difficulty. Her level was originally behind the [Mutated Rat]. It was not easy for her to reach Level 7. Therefore, even if she wanted to kill the mutated rat with low health, she had to be 120% alert. The mutated rat was extremely fast and appeared in front of Jiang Chuqiu in an instant. Jiang Chuqiu relied on her Assassin skill to dodge the fatal blow. Huge claws swept over her head. Jiang Chuqiu broke out in cold sweat. Lin Lei watched from the side. He didn¡¯t continue farming monsters, but paid attention to Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s situation. After all, this little disciple was his sugar daddy now. If she died, it would be difficult to collect the money. Lin Lei didn¡¯t help. Instead, he watched as Jiang Chuqiu struggled to survive under the claws of the [Mutated Rat]. It wasn¡¯t because he had any weird interests, but because Jiang Chuqiu was in such a miserable state. It was because of Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s evasion. The other party was actually quite talented. However, when facing an enemy, her heart was filled with fear. That was why she could not unleash her strength. The assassin was not a Thief. Fleeing blindly would not kill the enemy. He wondered if Jiang Chuqiu could understand this. Lin Lei silently observed Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s battle. Jiang Chuqiu was completely focused on the monster in front of her. She did not notice that he was being observed at all. She had wasted a few skills and was almost killed by the [Mutated Rat]. At the risk of losing HP, she finally killed the [Mutated Rat] that Lin Lei had released. Seeing this, Lin Lei didn¡¯t let her rest. Instead, he continued to attract the next one. Jiang Chuqiu almost wailed. She had not adapted to it yet, so why was he doing it again? However, in front of the monster, she could only brace herself. Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s journey this time was much smoother than last time. Just like that, she kept killing monsters thrown at her again and again. An hour later. Jiang Chuqiu was numb to killing rats. She was already very proficient and could even kill in one strike. She had killed the monster that Lin Lei had thrown over with a single strike. Jiang Chuqiu heaved a sigh of relief, her heart filled with excitement. She did not expect her growth to be so fast! There were very few students who could fight monsters above their level. Although Jiang Chuqiu had only killed the [Mutated Rat] that Lin Lei had beaten to a critical state, However, she was still fighting monsters one level higher! She had become stronger! Chapter 25 - Wake Up, Kill This Half HP Monster Chapter 25 Wake Up, Kill This Half HP Monster Jiang Chuqiu was overjoyed. The more she looked at the weapon in her hand, the more pleasing it became. Her body became more and more energetic. She felt that he could fight ten of them alone! Just as Jiang Chuqiu was feeling smug, Lin Lei¡¯s observations were about done, and he poured cold water on her. ¡°Since you can deal with it easily now, I¡¯ll release the monster with half HP next. Be careful.¡± Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s improvement speed was faster than Lin Lei had imagined. He could not help but become serious. When Jiang Chuqiu heard this, she restrained the joy on her face and nodded solemnly. ¡°I understand. Master, you can release it!¡± Lin Lei casually summoned a nearby [Mutated Rat]. It only took him a few rounds to reduce the monster¡¯s HP by hal The [Mutated Rat] let out a blood-curdling screech and charged towards Lin Lei. Lin Lei dodged to the side. The mutated rat lost its target and looked up to see Jiang Chuqiu holding a weapon. Immediately, his scarlet eyes locked onto the human in front of him. It was in pain and charged at Jiang Chuqiu angrily. Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t panic at all. After an hour of fighting, she was already very familiar with the movements of the [Mutated Rat]. The [Mutated Rat] stopped in its tracks, and its whiskers trembled. Jiang Chuqiu immediately dodged to the side. The next moment, the [Mutant Rat] stomped on the ground. He almost stepped on Jiang Chuqiu. Jiang Chuqiu took advantage of the fact that the mutated rat had entered the hard mode and activated her skill. ¡°Backstab!¡± While dodging the attack, she arrived behind the [Mutated Rat]. The [Mutated Rat] took a hit, and its HP dropped by another third. Jiang Chuqiu cheered silently. ¡°That¡¯s great! It hit!¡± She had used the [Backstab] skill several times before. However, she did not succeed every time. This was the first time Jiang Chuqiu had succeeded. It immediately boosted her confidence. It cried out in pain and turned around, wanting to bite the sinister human behind it. However, Jiang Chuqiu, who had expected this, hid to the side. At first, Jiang Chuqiu was nervous, but now, she was extremely calm. With only a little bit of health left and half of health left, apart from the difference in health, there were no other changes. Since she could kill the low HP [Mutated Rat], half of its HP should be nothing! Just as Jiang Chuqiu was relieved, the mutated rat changed its attack strategy. Jiang Chuqiu was caught off guard and almost got hit by the [Mutated Rat]. She quickly retreated, her movements slightly deformed. ¡°I was too careless!¡± Jiang Chuqiu thought to herself. The success just now made her a little arrogant and did not take the [Mutated Rat] seriously. In the end, she was taught a lesson in the next moment. Facing a monster with half HP, Jiang Chuqiu was only successful at the beginning She stumbled later on. She was almost killed by the [Mutated Rat] several times. Fortunately, Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s agility was not bad. She was on the verge of death several times. Although it was barely enough, it could still be worn down. Lin Lei watched for a while. Seeing that Jiang Chuqiu could handle it, he walked to the side to rest. In the past few hours, Lin Lei had been using magic and skills at high intensity. His mana was almost depleted. He could take a break and recover his mana. Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t have a big problem either. He went to a corner and put away his weapon. He nibbled on his rations while watching Jiang Chuqiu fight monsters. After a few hours of high-intensity combat, Lin Lei¡¯s stomach was empty. He took the opportunity to replenish some energy. Although Lin Lei was no longer by her side, Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t relax at all. She was still as hardworking as ever. Previously, she could use a good opportunity like [Backstab], but it did not appear again. If she could not use skills to deal damage to the [Mutated Rat], Jiang Chuqiu could only use basic attacks. She slowly grinded down the health of the monster in front of her. She was neither anxious nor impatient. It was as if she was not the one who had been frightened by the monster not long ago. Jiang Chuqiu was also surprised. The pressure of the [Mutated Rat] was still so strong. But she was very calm. She wasn¡¯t that afraid. Firstly, because Lin Lei was here. Secondly, Jiang Chuqiu had gradually gained confidence. The combat power and attack methods of the [Mutated Rat] were indeed many and terrifying. However, Jiang Chuqiu already knew that she had the ability to defeat it. Therefore, she was not afraid. Jiang Chuqiu became bolder and bolder every time she tried to dodge. The adrenaline rush from the battle made her feel a joy she had never experienced before. This was the feeling of blood boiling brought about by battle. She even fell in love with the joy of fighting monsters! With Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s perseverance, The [Mutated Rat] finally could not withstand her attack and fell under the dagger. Jiang Chuqiu waved her arms excitedly, and some sweat appeared on the tip of her nose. She could actually kill the [Mutated Rat] with low health! Right on the other side where she hadn¡¯t noticed. A group of examinees noticed Jiang Chuqiu. After all, the commotion of the battle was too big. It could hide from the monsters patrolling a fixed area, but it could not hide from humans. This was a five-man team. It was also a standard configuration. The Thief was in charge of scouting. When he saw the battle between Jiang Chuqiu and the mutated rat, he quickly reported it to his captain. ¡°Captain, there¡¯s a girl fighting with the [Mutated Rat] in front. She¡¯s alone. Judging from her equipment, she should be an Assassin. Do you want her?¡± The Thief¡¯s words were immediately welcomed by the others. ¡°Alone? Then hurry up and attack!¡± ¡°Where are her teammates? Could they have been eliminated?¡± ¡°She¡¯s fighting the [Mutated Rat] alone. Her level is not bad.¡± The Thief said, ¡°I took a look. [Mutated Rat] is at low health. Maybe the other teammates died because they killed rats.¡± The captain nodded at the thief¡¯s words. The others also agreed. After all, the monsters in the dungeon were very powerful. It was normal for a team to be wiped out. Apart from the fact that the candidates were enemies, the monsters in the dungeon were not to be trifled with. In the past years, many examinees had been eliminated by the monsters in the dungeon. They didn¡¯t even have time to meet anyone else. The Assassin could not help but rub his hands together. ¡°Shall we go and kill her? Maybe we can drop some Assassin equipment for me to use.¡± The others thought that there was only one person on the other side. They were still fighting monsters. There were five people on their side. They were not weak at all. He also echoed excitedly. ¡°Kill her! Maybe she¡¯ll drop some good equipment. The things her teammates dropped should be on her.¡± ¡°We can also get rid of the [Mutated Rat] while we¡¯re at it. We can still pick up some things.¡± Since his teammates had said so, the captain no longer hesitated. ¡°Alright, be careful and hide. We¡¯ll sneak over and wait for my signal before leaving together.¡± The captain was also tempted. Killing the other party would give him half of the points, and he would be able to pick up equipment and monsters. Such a good opportunity was rare in exam instance dungeons. She could only blame herself for being unlucky! Chapter 26 - Acting Tough, Most Fatal Chapter 26 Acting Tough, Most Fatal Lin Lei leaned against the wall. After finishing his rations, he began to tidy up his backpack. After killing monsters for half a day, in addition to the equipment he picked up after killing Zhang Zihai and the others not long ago, His backpack was almost full. He had to change his position. He had gained a lot this time. Not only were there more than ten pieces of White Equipment, but there were also three pieces of Superior Equipment. The rest were the materials and copper coins dropped by the monsters. There was actually a gold coin in his account. Lin Lei threw away some relatively low-value materials, then rearranged them and placed the equipment in the most convenient position. Unfortunately, the drop rate of equipment above White-grade was really touching. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t rich. Although it wasn¡¯t to the point where he didn¡¯t even have superior equipment. However, he could only sigh. He was tidying up when he looked up and saw some movement in the distance. Lin Lei immediately stopped what he was doing and hid himself as he looked over. It turned out that a group of people was approaching. Although he didn¡¯t know their intentions, they didn¡¯t look like good people. Lin Lei glanced at his mana. After a short rest, his mana had recovered a little. Although it was not full yet. But it was enough. To the current Lin Lei, dealing with this five-person team wasn¡¯t a problem. Moreover, he had the [Longsword of Light] on him. With an outstanding weapon, it was a crushing existence for these examinees of the same level. No equipment could withstand a single strike from him! Just as Lin Lei discovered these examinees, the examinees who were paying attention to him outside the arena also noticed his gaze. These examinees had been eliminated in both instance dungeons. As they were no longer qualified to enter, they could watch the other examinees in the instance dungeon from the examination hall. Almost everyone chose to watch Lin Lei. After all, Lin Lei was ranked first on the scoreboard, and the speed at which his points increased was like a rocket. They could not help but be curious. Lin Lei did not use the [Longsword of Light]. Instead, he used the [Metal Dagger]. He hid himself. Although he did not have the help of skills, his concealment skills were still very strong. They had yet to be discovered within a hundred meters of the team. When they were close enough, Lin Lei took the initiative to attack. He arrived behind the priest of the team and slit her neck. The sudden death of the priest went unnoticed. The remaining four were still paying attention to Jiang Chuqiu. Lin Lei continued to move stealthily, killing the mage who had his back to him. At this moment, the Assassin in the team reacted and hurriedly shouted. ¡°Enemy attack!¡± However, it was already too late. Lin Lei¡¯s movements were as fast as the wind. The warrior who turned around only had time to raise his shield before he was cut in half by Lin Lei¡¯s [Longsword of Light]. The remaining Thieves and Assassins were dumbfounded. They turned around and were about to run when they were taken away by Lin Lei¡¯s two Fireballs. Lin Lei shook his head. This group of examinees was too unchallenging. They were not as threatening as Zhang Zihai. In just a short while, the five-man team was unable to fight back and was completely wiped out. Lin Lei put away his equipment and came in front of Jiang Chuqiu. Jiang Chuqiu had just finished killing the [Mutated Rat] and was about to proudly claim credit from Lin Lei. In the end, she didn¡¯t see him. Now that she saw him coming from the other side, she asked curiously, ¡°Where did you go?¡± Lin Lei¡¯s expression was calm. ¡°I just saw a few monsters and took care of them.¡± The examinees who were paying attention to him outside the arena immediately had black lines on their faces when they saw his answer. ¡°This is too pretentious!¡± ¡°One person, one dagger, and five people in minutes. This is too terrifying!¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you see that he just switched equipment? He¡¯s actually an unspecialized!¡± ¡°How can someone be so good at acting cool in front of girls? I¡¯m so envious!¡± In the pocket dimension, Lin Lei naturally couldn¡¯t hear the complaints of the examinees. He looked at Jiang Chuqiu, who was still excited, and nodded. ¡°Since you can kill the [Mutated Rat], you can graduate. This is my bank account number.¡± Lin Lei casually sent Jiang Chuqiu his bank account number. After all, everything that happened in the Instance Dungeon would be recorded, but private messages would not be seen. He did not want to expose his account in front of everyone. The excitement on Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s face faded a little, but then, after understanding what Lin Lei meant, her eyes lit up even more. ¡°Really? I¡¯ve passed the prerequisite?¡± Lin Lei nodded. ¡°With your current strength, against a monster of the same level, you won¡¯t have any problem soloing it.¡± After he said that, Jiang Chuqiu jumped with joy. Jiang Chuqiu wanted to shout out in joy. However, considering how dangerous this instance dungeon was, she could only suppress her joy and try her best to control herself. This was Lin Lei¡¯s acknowledgement! Lin Lei felt that she was good enough! Jiang Chuqiu was not a newbie. She knew that monsters of the same level in dungeons were usually killed by students in small teams. After all, monsters and humans were of different levels. Although the level of the monsters was very low, in fact, the combat power of the monsters was much stronger than humans. If not for the fact that monsters could not level up and did not have equipment, humans would not have been able to defeat the monsters in the dungeon. In the past, Jiang Chuqiu had a hard time fighting monsters two levels lower than her. Unexpectedly, in just over an hour, after being squeezed dry by Lin Lei, She would be able to solo monsters of the same level! Jiang Chuqiu was immersed in excitement and joy. If not for the fact that the communication between the dungeon and the outside world had been cut off, she would definitely announce to the world that she had become stronger. Seeing how happy she was, Lin Lei didn¡¯t plan on saying goodbye to her. Instead, he turned and left. In any case, the next step was the problem of proficiency. Jiang Chuqiu¡¯s talent was not bad. As long as she did not have to fear monsters, it would not be long before she became very strong. Lin Lei had nothing more to teach her. It was more important for him to level up. It was rare to encounter such a high-yielding Instance Dungeon, so he had to make good use of it. Jiang Chuqiu watched as Lin Lei left. Before she could thank him, he had already disappeared from her sight. Jiang Chuqiu felt regretful. If only he could continue to form a team with Lin Lei. However, she also knew that it was her wishful thinking. After all, a powerful person like Lin Lei couldn¡¯t continue to accompany a weakling like her. She could only transfer more money to express gratitude. However, Jiang Chuqiu was not discouraged. She clenched her fists and was full of confidence. With Lin Lei¡¯s approval, as long as she worked hard to level up and fight more monsters, she would definitely have the chance to continue teaming up with Lin Lei! At that time, she would make Lin Lei look at her in a new light! Unknowingly, Jiang Chuqiu did not notice it herself. Jiang Chuqiu didn¡¯t want to fight monsters. At this moment, she was not afraid of monsters at all, nor was she afraid of battle. She could even endure the pain of being injured. It was as if the genes of battle had awakened in her body. It made her eager to enter the next battle! Jiang Chuqiu made up her mind again and walked in the opposite direction. She wanted to level up alone and continue to study the insights she gained in battle! Chapter 27 - Isnt It Just Killing Monsters Above Your Level? Chapter 27 Isn¡¯t It Just Killing Monsters Above Your Level? After Lin Lei went through the dungeons alone for a while. He found a place and built a hidden shelter for himself to rest for a few hours. After all, this Instance Dungeon took a long time, 18 hours. Although he could continue fighting, his stamina and combat ability would weaken. Therefore, in order to maintain his optimal state¡­ Lin Lei let himself rest for a while. When he woke up, there were only a few hours left until the end of the instance dungeon. Lin Lei came out of the shelter and continued to farm monsters. After resting enough, he was especially energetic. All the conditions were restored to their best state. Although without Jiang Chuqiu to lure the monsters, the efficiency of killing monsters decreased a little. But Lin Lei didn¡¯t have to be restrained in his attacks. He used all the techniques that he didn¡¯t want to show Jiang Chuqiu. Soon, he killed another batch of monsters. Lin Lei buried his head in grinding, and his experience bar rose quite quickly. When Lin Lei rested and recovered his mana, he realized that he was still a little short of reaching level 8. He checked his attributes. [Name: Lin Lei] [Level: Level 7 (99.15%)] [Class: None] [Health Points: 195] (Constitution x5) (Bloodlust Bonus) [Mana: 35] (Spirit x5) [Attributes: Strength 6, Spirit 7, Constitution 9, Agility 7] [Defense: 15] (Strength + Constitution) [Talent: Unspecialized, Catacombs Blessing] [Headline Buff: Weapon Mastery, Attack Speed, Bloodlust, Skill Enhancement] [Skills: Fireball (Level 6), Basic Swordsmanship (Level 2), Lightning Strike (Level 2)] There were too few skills. However, this could not be rushed. After all, the drop rate of Instance Dungeon skills was really low. Lin Lei¡¯s current skills were already much better than those of ordinary students of the same level. There was most likely only one other person. At most, there would be no more than two. But Lin Lei already had three! He needed to change his strategy now. The benefits of leveling alone were too little. Multiplayer Instance Dungeons had more resources than solo dungeons. The level of the equipment dropped was also very high. Although the level might not be good, if he farmed more, he would definitely be able to obtain good equipment. Lin Lei planned to grind for a while longer until the end of the dungeon. In addition, he had enough points now. Compared to quantity, quality was more important. Lin Lei decided not to linger around the periphery. Instead, he directly entered the high-level area of the pocket dimension. The monsters here were all above Level 10. His actions were imprinted in the eyes of the examinees outside the arena. The examinees who were paying attention to him widened their eyes when they saw that Lin Lei had actually arrived at the high-level area. ¡°Does Lin Lei want to die? Killing monsters one level higher is already very strong. Does he still want to kill monsters two levels higher?¡± ¡°Attributes that are two levels higher, that¡¯s a 50% suppression. I think Lin Lei is out of his mind. He¡¯s planning to just die like that?¡± ¡°His points are enough to enter the eight academies, but he still has to work so hard. He really doesn¡¯t care about his life. After being killed by a high-level monster, the punishment will be even more serious.¡± At this moment, because Zhang Zihai had been killed by Lin Lei once, he was behind schedule. Coupled with his explosive state of mind, his second dungeon opportunity was also lost. He watched the scene on Lin Lei¡¯s side with the others. Seeing how reckless Lin Lei was, Zhang Zihai¡¯s lips curled into a cold smile. This arrogant brat was indeed courting death! Zhang Zihai wished that Lin Lei would die immediately. Faced with Lin Lei¡¯s suicidal actions, he almost jumped up and applauded. ¡°Well done. Go to the high-level area and be tortured by a Level 10 monster. Only then will you know what arrogance is!¡± ¡°This kind of trash is just lucky to have picked up a good weapon for free. Otherwise, how could he have the chance to be so arrogant!¡± Zhang Zihai was mocking them, so his team members were naturally unhappy. If not for Lin Lei, how could they have been eliminated so early? They also mocked him like Zhang Zihai. ¡°Captain is right! What trash! He¡¯s just lucky!¡± ¡°He needs to pay!¡± ¡°Let a Level 10 monster teach you a lesson!¡± Lin Lei shuttled through the dilapidated buildings. He did not stop at all. At first glance, the background of the instance dungeon did not seem to be orderly. However, during the time Lin Lei had been here, he had already roughly understood the layout of the building. He knew where he had to step so that he could exert strength. He quickly skipped this section of the road and arrived at a wide area. The swamp was right in front of them. It was also the high-level area of this instance dungeon. Lin Lei arrived in front of the swamp, but he wasn¡¯t in a hurry to make a move. The monsters wandering in the distance did not notice him. After Lin Lei observed his surroundings, he began to run again. This time, he did not hesitate. Instead, he swept past the monster as if he was running aimlessly. In the eyes of the people in the examination hall, his action had become an escape. ¡°Haha, you really know how to back off, don¡¯t you? How can you even fight those monsters?¡± ¡°Is he shopping? Running around to see what the monster looks like before coming out to show off?¡± ¡°Is the high-level area a place you can run about as you please?¡± Just as everyone was laughing out loud, they quickly stopped laughing. Then, Lin Lei¡¯s actions caused their jaws to drop. ¡°F*ck! Am I dreaming?¡± ¡°Is he level 8 or not? He¡¯s actually going to lure monsters?¡± ¡°Killing a few monsters that are all two levels higher at the same time? Am I f*cking blind?!¡± Everyone looked at the scene in disbelief. In the image, Lin Lei shuttled between the monsters, quickly attracting the hatred of the monsters. The people outside the arena didn¡¯t know that the debuff on Lin Lei¡¯s body made him look like a firefly in the night as long as he passed by the monster. It would attract endless aggro. They only saw a string of monsters following behind Lin Lei. And Lin Lei had no intention of stopping! He was still running! ¡°F*ck! He¡¯s not backing off at all. He¡¯s luring the monsters!¡± ¡°Is this the legendary train king? I¡¯ve learned something new. This is the first time I¡¯ve seen such a scene. I have to record it quickly.¡± ¡°My God, oh my god!¡± The examinees outside the arena were immersed in shock. Seeing Lin Lei running non-stop on the screen, the monster behind him already made everyone¡¯s scalps tingle. There were so many monsters. Even if they weren¡¯t here for them, the examinees felt their legs go weak. ¡°They¡¯re all Level 10, but there are more than ten of them! Is he crazy?¡± ¡°How long is he going to lure them? Isn¡¯t that enough for him to kill?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t! Stop it already, I¡¯m freaking out!¡± ¡°I beg you to kill them quickly! I¡¯m going to have nightmares at night!¡± Everyone¡¯s shock grew deeper and deeper by Lin Lei¡¯s actions. All the examinees in the examination hall raised their heads. They looked at Lin Lei¡¯s calm expression on the screen. In their eyes, Lin Lei, who was constantly running forward, suddenly changed directions. He turned around and rushed into the group of monsters he had attracted! Chapter 28 - Killing the Boss, Lets Fight! Chapter 28: Killing the Boss, Let¡¯s Fight! ¡°F*ck! He¡¯s attacking!¡± ¡°Thunder God is attacking!¡± ¡°What is that weapon in his hand? It¡¯s like he¡¯s cutting melons and vegetables. Amazing!¡± ¡°He changed his weapon! Damn it! He changed his weapon again!¡± As everyone cried out in alarm, they saw Lin Lei, who was in the pocket dimension, wielding the [Longsword of Light]. He activated his skill and cut open the stomach of the roaring Flaming Tiger that was pouncing towards him. In the next second, the [Longsword of Light] in his hand was replaced by a staff. The [Fireball] shot out from the staff and hit the [Brave Wild Boar] that was attacking from the side. Then, the equipment in Lin Lei¡¯s hand flashed again, and a light dagger appeared in his hand. Lin Lei waved his hand gently, and the ¡®angry groundhog¡¯ that had drilled out of the ground had its teeth cut off. Lin Lei switched his weapons smoothly. He was clearly alone. However, the various weapons and equipment in his hands switched back and forth. It actually formed a small team-like attack. Moreover, the combination was even more exquisite than the team¡¯s cooperation. The monster had just been attacked by the Fireball Technique when it was struck by the Thunderbolt Technique in the next moment. It was trembling all over. The combination of thunder and fire caused the monster to lose the ability to attack again. His set of combat techniques was really fancy. Everyone outside the arena was dazzled. A few people had even turned on the recording screen, wanting to replay the scene again and again. ¡°That¡¯s great. An unspecialized is actually so strong? He¡¯s too good at it.¡± ¡°He can switch so many weapons at will. How many brains does he have?¡± ¡°I¡¯ve tried switching between two weapons, and I feel like I¡¯m going to be stupid. How many weapons has he changed? Five? Six?¡± ¡°I¡¯m numb. Completely numb.¡± Everyone clearly did not eat anything, but they felt that their mouths were so sour that their saliva was about to drip. Lin Lei was immersed in an all-out battle. The more he fought, the more satisfied he felt. When Jiang Chuqiu was around, he was restrained. Now that he was fighting, it felt so good! Lin Lei casually stabbed the dagger into the body of the distant [Black Python]. The heavily injured [Black Python] was instantly killed by Lin Lei. This was the last monster. The system notification sounded. [Killed ¡°Black Python¡±. Experience +40] [Congratulations on reaching Level 8. You have received 1 attribute point, Spirit +1] He had finally reached level eight. It was not in vain that Lin Lei had pulled so many monsters. The higher the level, the more EXP was needed to level up. If Lin Lei hadn¡¯t chosen to come to the high-level area, he would probably have had to fight for another half a day to advance to Level 8. Lin Lei stretched his body. Just as he was about to continue pulling the monsters¡­ A new system notification refreshed. [The Boss in this area has respawned!] [Wild Rhinoceros spawned 100 meters southeast.] Lin Lei was secretly delighted. He did not expect to be so lucky to encounter another Boss. Since they were so close, the boss would be his! Lin Lei ran towards the direction where the Boss had spawned while looking at the map. This was indeed a high-level area. Other than Lin Lei, no other players appeared. He didn¡¯t have to worry about anyone stealing his kill. However, Lin Lei didn¡¯t slow down. Instead, he sped up. In just a few seconds, Lin Lei saw an empty space in the middle of the swamp. A black rhinoceros was standing on the only firm land. Lin Lei immediately checked the BOSS¡¯s information. [Monster: Wild Rhinoceros] [Level: 10] [Health: 100] [Attack Power: 20~25] [Defense: 30] [Skills: Trample, Berserk, Charge] [Description: The king of the swamp. It doesn¡¯t like its territory to be invaded by other creatures.] Lin Lei gripped the staff in his hand tightly, starting with the Fireball technique. The power of Fireball was no longer the same as before. There was also the buff. It landed accurately on the [Wild Rhinoceros] and dealt a bright red -3 damage. This was on the basis that he was two levels higher. Under the suppression of his attributes, Lin Lei could still deal damage. If it were anyone else, they probably wouldn¡¯t even cause a -1 HP deduction, only a MISS. Lin Lei didn¡¯t take the damage caused by the Fireball technique to heart. A Level 10 Boss was much stronger than ordinary monsters. Moreover, it was the type with extremely high defense. Lin Lei took out the [Longsword of Light]. Currently, among his weapons, only the [Longsword of Light] had the highest attack power. It could also break the defense of the [Wild Rhinoceros]. The other weapons were still a little weak. Lin Lei¡¯s greeting attracted the attention of the [Wild Rhinoceros]. The moment it saw Lin Lei, the eyes of the [Wild Rhinoceros] turned red as it charged towards him. Lin Lei immediately dodged to the side. The [Longsword of Light] in his hand flashed with light as he activated the ¡°Basic Sword Techniques¡±! A large -50 appeared above [Wild Rhinoceros]¡¯s head. The [Wild Rhinoceros] was in pain. It turned around and used [Trample] on Lin Lei. Lin Lei hurriedly dodged. Soon, Lin Lei understood the moves of the Wild Rhinoceros. The attack power of this Boss wasn¡¯t high. Other than its astonishing defense, the rest was nothing to Lin Lei. After getting used to the rhythm, the next step was to grind his health. After a full half an hour, Lin Lei finally succeeded in defeating the BOSS. The [Wild Rhinoceros] wailed and fell to the ground. In a flash of light, [Wild Rhinoceros] dropped a pile of equipment. Lin Lei, however, didn¡¯t pay attention to the glittering equipment. Instead, he focused his gaze on the only special item. It was a skill book! Lin Lei¡¯s eyes lit up, and he immediately picked up the skill book. [Skill Book Level 10: Fire Rain Spell (Superior)] [Effect: After using it, you will learn the outstanding skill Fire Rain Spell LV1] [Prerequisite: Level 8, Mage] Lin Lei casually picked up the other equipment, then immediately slapped the skill book and learned it. If he didn¡¯t learn such a good thing now, when would he learn it? Lin Lei quite liked to use mage skills. After all, it could be used for long-range attacks. Although his magic staff was not very good yet, as long as he could get a powerful magic staff, his Attack Power would increase by another level! Lin Lei was very satisfied with the mage skill he had learned. After that, he could put the search for the staff equipment on the agenda. After learning a new skill, Lin Lei couldn¡¯t wait to test its effects. As this was the Boss¡¯ territory, there were no other monsters. Lin Lei randomly chose a direction and searched for other monsters. Soon, he discovered a group of monsters gathered together. [Monster: Angry Hornet] [Level: 10] [HP: 20] [Attack Power: 11~16] [Defense: 8] [Skills: Needle Sting, Summoning Companions] [Description: The hornets that appear in groups have always been in a rage. They want to attack everything they see.] Lin Lei immediately picked up his staff. ¡°Fire Rain Spell!¡± The black sky that was covered by trees was instantly dyed red. Flames fell from the sky like raindrops. Chapter 29 - Flaming Rain Technique Chapter 29: Flaming Rain Technique The rain of fire that fell from the sky fiercely pounced on the [Angry Bees] group. Under the baptism of the Fire Rain Spell, these monsters that were originally showing off could not withstand more than a few rounds before turning into ashes. The effect of Lin Lei¡¯s usage was outstanding! Especially against this kind of insect. The Fire Rain Spell seemed to be his natural enemy. The hornets were unable to resist such an attack. Through his experiments, Lin Lei also discovered that after using the Fire Rain Spell, there would still be a burning effect. It allowed [Angry Hornet] to continuously lose HP. He did not even need to use the second round of attacks. [Angry Bee] was taken away in one wave. The ferocity of the Fire Rain Spell¡¯s attacks surprised even Lin Lei. Seeing that the effect was so good, Lin Lei wanted to experiment more. He continued to be active in the Level 10 area. Lin Lei had no intention of returning to the previous region. Originally, before he had the Fire Rain Spell, Lin Lei¡¯s farming efficiency hadn¡¯t been very fast. But now, with the Fire Rain Spell, Lin Lei¡¯s farming efficiency increased. There was no need to worry about killing monsters two levels higher. With the help of his new skill, Lin Lei was able to do as he pleased. The Fire Rain Spell was very powerful. Coupled with the fact that it was an area-of-effect attack, Lin Lei felt extremely good when facing large-scale monsters. The Fire Rain Spell had already surpassed the Fireball Technique, becoming Lin Lei¡¯s favorite technique. Lin Lei used the ¡®Fire Rain Spell¡¯ to pave the way. Regardless of whether there were monsters in front of him, he would first cast Fire Rain Spell. If there was, they would burn it to death. If not, they would treat it as cleaning the swamp. He squandered it all along the way. Fire Rain was good in every way, but its mana consumption was much higher than Fireball. After a few more shots, Lin Lei¡¯s mana would run out. Fortunately, it was extremely powerful, so Lin Lei didn¡¯t have to worry about it. After using up all his mana, Lin Lei directly used a blue potion. Previously, he had been saving mana potions. Now that he used them, he did not feel the slightest heartache. Lin Lei was truly delighted by the use of the ¡°Fire Rain Spell¡±. If he kept farming like this, what did the cost of these potions matter? If he sold the materials of a Level 10 monster in the shop, he could buy as many Blue Potions as he wanted. Just like that, Lin Lei farmed for a few hours. His experience points increased rapidly. Compared to the previous leveling experience, the experience points now jumped almost every half a second. It allowed Lin Lei to experience the feeling of riding a rocket. Soon, he broke through to Level 9. After leveling up, he did not hesitate to add points to his Spirit. When the Spirit points were high, the mana could also be increased. Now, although he did not intend to turn himself into a pure mage¡­ However, with high mana, it was not enough to use a few Fire Rain Spells. Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! The Fire Rain Spell was thrown away as if it was free. Lin Lei quickly reached level 10! At Level 10, the growth rate of experience began to slow down. After all, these monsters were only Level 10. There was no EXP bonus. As Lin Lei scrolled, he found it rather boring. His goal in coming to the high-level area was to reach Level 10. Now that he had achieved his goal, Lin Lei glanced at the time. There were only two hours left until the end of the instance dungeon. Was he going to continue farming? However, there was no point in continuing. A monster that was at most Level 10 would not be able to let him reach Level 11 within 2 hours. After all, under the destruction of the Fire Rain Spell, all the monsters gathered together had been wiped out by Lin Lei. The other monsters were scattered around. It was still a bit of a waste for Lin Lei to use the ¡®Fire Rain Spell¡¯ one by one. Therefore, he did not plan to continue. Instead, he decisively took the initiative to exit the Instance Dungeon. The exam duplicate was different from the others. Once Lin Lei¡¯s points reached a certain level, he could choose to withdraw. In order to reach Level 10, he had deliberately stalled himself. Now that he didn¡¯t want to continue farming, it was only a matter of time before he quit. Lin Lei hovered in mid-air, a tabulation interface appearing in front of him. [Points mission completed. Calculating.] [Settlement complete.] [Congratulations on obtaining points: 2,204] Lin Lei glanced at the results. It was just as he had estimated. The main reason was that in the next few hours, when he used Fire Rain Spell to level up, he had farmed a lot. Before Lin Lei entered the swamp, he had only accumulated a little more than a thousand points. It was very fast to farm points in the swamp. After all, the higher the level of the monster, the more points it would give. Lin Lei didn¡¯t mind. Instead, he ended the calculations and exited the instance dungeon. The moment his points were calculated, his points appeared on the dungeon scoreboard. When the people outside the arena saw the score appear, they were all dumbfounded. ¡°2,204 points? This f*cking score has broken through the horizon!¡± ¡°Could he be holding a Legendary weapon with no restrictions on levels? This is too terrifying!¡± ¡°I remember that our school¡¯s record is only 1,437 points. This is a direct record break!¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect such an amazing person to be in the same batch as me. Is this the feeling of being crushed by a god?¡± ¡°Forget it. He¡¯s only good now. What are you all bragging about? He was an unspecialized, so he was naturally powerful now. When his level increased in the future, he would not even be able to compare to a priest! There¡¯s no future!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. It¡¯s just an unspecialized showing off in the early stages. After that, it¡¯ll be the world of us professionals!¡± ¡°Trash unspecialized, taking advantage of your low level to earn points. Pfft!¡± Everyone had different reactions. Some were flattering him, while others were being sarcastic. However, these words didn¡¯t affect Lin Lei. He appeared from the light and appeared in the examination hall again. His appearance made the discussions at the scene even louder. No one dared to approach him. Everyone looked at Lin Lei with either reverence or disdain. Despite being stared at by hundreds of pairs of eyes, Lin Lei¡¯s expression remained calm. These people¡¯s gazes did not affect him at all. Lin Lei walked away, preparing to leave the examination hall under the gazes of these people. He had just taken a few steps when a teacher appeared in front of him. This teacher looked very unfamiliar. Lin Lei vaguely remembered that they had met before at the gathering. She seemed to be the homeroom teacher of a certain class. ¡°Student Lin Lei.¡± This somewhat familiar teacher smiled at Lin Lei. Lin Lei was puzzled. ¡°Teacher, why are you looking for me?¡± He still wanted to go to the shop and sell all the trash in his backpack. Although these Level 10 monsters had dropped some good things because he had jumped levels¡­ However, there were also many repetitive items. It was useless for Lin Lei to keep these duplicate equipment. He might as well sell them. He had already picked out some good equipment and put them on himself. He would sell the rest directly and did not need to take up space in his backpack. Faced with Lin Lei¡¯s question, this teacher appeared very considerate. ¡°Student Lin Lei, please come with me. I have something to tell you.¡± Lin Lei was puzzled. Could it be that his performance in the instance dungeon was too much? However, in a world where the strong preyed on the weak, it was only right for him to feel good. Lin Lei had no intention of changing his methods. He nodded indifferently and followed behind the teacher. Chapter 30 - The Principal Wants to Get Close to Him Too Chapter 30 The Principal Wants to Get Close to Him Too The teacher led Lin Lei out, introducing himself as they walked. ¡°My name is Zhang Wei. I¡¯m your homeroom teacher.¡± Lin Lei nodded. He did not care about the teacher in front of him. Seeing that Lin Lei didn¡¯t seem interested in talking, Zywane didn¡¯t say anything else. Instead, he led Lin Lei to the garden. The exam was not over yet, and the garden in the academy was still relatively deserted. Lin Lei didn¡¯t know why he had brought him here. He frowned. Just as he was feeling puzzled, he looked up and saw a familiar figure. It was the principal who had been on stage not long ago. The principal waved at Zhang Wei happily. ¡°Thank you very much. Go and do your work.¡± Zywane glanced at Lin Lei, somewhat reluctant to part with him. This was a fierce person who had broken the school record of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School! If he could make connections, such a genius with a bright future might be able to help him develop better. However, since the principal had said so, he could only turn around and leave. After Zywane left, the principal stretched out his hand and smiled at Lin Lei. ¡°Hello, Student Lin Lei. You should know me. Let me introduce myself. I¡¯m Wu Xingsen, the principal of Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School. It¡¯s a pleasure to meet you.¡± Lin Lei didn¡¯t expect that he was coming to the garden because the principal wanted to see him. Wu Xingsen was very surprised by Lin Lei¡¯s performance. After seeing Lin Lei¡¯s number one score, he had been paying attention to Lin Lei¡¯s performance in the dungeon. It wasn¡¯t until Lin Lei¡¯s results surpassed the school record that Wu Xingsen decided to rope in this talented student. Even if the other party was an unspecialized without a job. To be able to achieve such results, he would definitely develop in the future! Lin Lei shook hands with the principal, his face still indifferent. Wu Xingsen didn¡¯t care at all and praised Lin Lei. ¡°Student Lin Lei, you really are a young talent! You can actually break the school record! This is the first time I¡¯ve seen an unspecialized achieve such results.¡± Wu Xingsen smiled. It was impossible to tell that he was an iron-blooded person in the eyes of outsiders. Lin Lei didn¡¯t comment. His performance was so eye-catching that it was natural for others to notice him. Although the principal had a good status, Lin Lei didn¡¯t mind. With his talent, his future would not stop at a small place like Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School. Thus, Lin Lei wasn¡¯t interested in the principal¡¯s offer. ¡°I saw your wonderful performance in the instance dungeon. ¡°Student Lin Lei, which of the eight major academies do you plan to enter?¡± After praising Lin Lei, the principal immediately asked the question he was most concerned about. But Lin Lei¡¯s performance was flawless. ¡°I was just lucky. Principal, you don¡¯t have to be so polite. ¡°You also know that the early stages of unspecialized development are relatively fast, so I received the benefits of the early stages of unspecialized. That¡¯s why I have such good results.¡± Lin Lei planned to use these words to fool them. He didn¡¯t want to tell the principal about his plans. Although it was no secret what academy he would go to in the future. However, Lin Lei didn¡¯t intend to have a deep conversation with the principal. After all, it was unclear whether the other party was an enemy or a friend. Perhaps the principal would secretly make things difficult for Lin Lei when he was fighting alone. There were precedents for this kind of thing in history. Regarding Lin Lei¡¯s reply, the principal nodded on the surface, but the smile on his face didn¡¯t change. However, he was rolling his eyes behind his back. This student was smart. He wasn¡¯t even willing to say which academy he was going to. However, for a person like Lin Lei to appear in the school was also a pleasant surprise. Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 High School had always been one of the top schools in Linhai City, its performance was very outstanding. However, over the years, there had been more and more powerful academies. Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 High School had also gradually declined. Wu Xingsen had always wanted the school to develop to a higher level. Now that Lin Lei was here, Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School would be remembered by everyone. The future development would also be much better. Thus, he didn¡¯t expose Lin Lei¡¯s words. ¡°Luck is also a part of strength. Student Lin Lei, have you thought about which school you want to go to?¡± He continued to ask. Seeing that the principal was so concerned about his choice, Lin Lei thought for a moment, then told him directly. Seeing Wu Xingsen¡¯s expression, Lin Lei decided to give him some trust. ¡°I plan to enter Yunjing Academy.¡± After Lin Lei finished speaking, Wu Xingsen¡¯s eyes immediately lit up. [Yunjing Academy]? That would be great! [Yunjing Academy] was the number one school in the country. The requirement for points was also the strictest. It was exaggerated to more than 400 points! In the past, very few students could meet the requirements of Yunjing Academy. Moreover, Yunjing Academy only recruited the top students they thought. They only wanted geniuses, not mediocre ones. It was the slogan of Yunjing Academy. Lin Lei had chosen to enter this academy. His future development would definitely be better. Wu Xingsen nodded in satisfaction. With Lin Lei¡¯s current points, he could easily enter the [Yunjing Academy]. With a smile, Wu Xingsen took out the item he had prepared for a long time from his pocket and handed it to Lin Lei. ¡°This is the advancement ticket. Keep it well.¡± Originally, Lin Lei¡¯s advancement ticket had been brought over by his homeroom teacher, Cai Qiang. However, Wu Xingsen was eager for talent, so he personally brought it over to Lin Lei. As the head of a school, it was only natural for him to lower his attitude towards geniuses. Lin Lei took the ticket, somewhat surprised. But he didn¡¯t care. Advancement tickets were similar to passes that were available at every 10 levels. After everyone reached Level 10 or a multiple of 10, they needed to undergo a class advancement. Although Lin Lei was an unspecialized, he could still use advanced notes. After all, the Advancement Certificate was the ticket to the Advancement Dungeon. He could choose not to advance, but the benefits of advancing to an Advanced Dungeon made Lin Lei extremely envious. It was impossible for him to give up such a good opportunity to become stronger. Advanced dungeons were very difficult for ordinary people. But Lin Lei had so many buffs and the advantage of being an unspecialized. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t worried that he wouldn¡¯t be able to clear the dungeon. Seeing Lin Lei put away the advancement ticket, Wu Xingsen¡¯s expression became solemn. ¡°Before you enter the dungeon, it¡¯s best to form a team and not fight alone. Advanced dungeons did not limit the number of people in a party. You can ask your friends for help and go in with you.¡± Wu Xingsen couldn¡¯t help but give Lin Lei some pointers. He didn¡¯t want Lin Lei to be dejected because of the failure of his advancement. After all, everyone knew how difficult it was to advance to an Instance Dungeon. Many people had lost their vitality after failing once, and they had never advanced again. Although Lin Lei¡¯s performance in the exam dungeon was very stunning, this didn¡¯t mean that he could deal with the advancement dungeon. If such a good seedling was crippled because he had never cleared an advanced dungeon¡­ Wu Xingsen would regret it for the rest of his life. Lin Lei nodded. ¡°Thank you, Principal. I¡¯ll remember.¡± Lin Lei appreciated the principal¡¯s kind reminder. However, he did not intend to use such an opportunistic method. Moreover, as an unspecialized, he was a small team. There was no need for him to be dragged down by others. Chapter 31 - Preparation Before Advancement Chapter 31 Preparation Before Advancement After bidding farewell to the principal, Lin Lei returned to his dormitory. Fortunately, it was a single room, so it was more convenient for him to do whatever he wanted. After returning to his room, Lin Lei glanced at his backpack. He had almost finished choosing his equipment. As soon as he left the dungeon, Lin Lei immediately sold the useless equipment. This game-like setting was quite convenient. The reason why he went to the store previously was because he could not see what was sold in the store. There was no way to buy anything. Now, he only needed to empty his backpack, and it didn¡¯t matter if he was present or not. After the useless trash in his backpack was cleared out, the weight on his body became much lighter. Lin Lei felt a little more relaxed. In the next few days, Lin Lei didn¡¯t have anything else to do. He just had to wait for the acceptance letter to arrive. The points on the dungeon scoreboard already represented Lin Lei¡¯s strength. He did not need to recommend himself to the various academies like other ordinary students. With his current results, the other academies should be fighting for him. Lin Lei had nothing to do. The others could not rest yet. In the next few days, he could level up again and obtain more equipment. Although points were an important criterion for the test. However, if his level and equipment could meet the academy¡¯s requirements before school started¡­ These ordinary students also had the opportunity to enter the academy. That was why they had to hurry. Before school started, he would start working hard. However, these students knew that they did not have enough points and wanted to try their luck after failing. Lin Lei didn¡¯t need to go through so much trouble. It was meaningless for him to continue leveling. No matter how high his level was, it was useless when he entered the Advanced Dungeon. In addition, what Lin Lei lacked now was better equipment and skills. Simply leveling up was just a waste of time. Lin Lei was sitting in front of his desk, writing down his plans. Awakening the talent [Catacombs Blessing] did not mean that everything would be fine. No matter how many buffs Lin Lei had, he had to know how to use them, and he also had to use them with other things. Lin Lei pondered for a moment, planning to make a detailed plan for his future direction. This was the only way to be prepared. After all, as an unspecialized, the disadvantage was that the missions that originally belonged to the team were all completed by him alone. Even if they could form a team, Lin Lei wasn¡¯t inclined to put his life in the hands of others. He was writing a plan when he suddenly received a notification. [Your bank account XXXXX has received a transfer of 100,000 yuan. Your balance is 102,457.4 yuan.] Lin Lei glanced at the message, then raised an eyebrow. Was this the apprenticeship fee that Jiang Chuqiu had given him? Although Lin Lei said that he was charging according to the time, he didn¡¯t plan on charging too much. Therefore, he didn¡¯t tell Jiang Chuqiu the exact value. He did not expect this little girl to be so sensible. She gave 100,000 yuan. Lin Lei was somewhat surprised. He knew that the Jiang Chamber of Commerce was very rich, but Jiang Chuqiu was just a student. How could she be so rich? He had not thought of this. Originally, Lin Lei had planned to first enter the dungeon to earn some money, then buy the skill books he needed. Lin Lei wouldn¡¯t have to worry about money for a long time. After all, no matter how expensive the equipment was, it was only ten to twenty thousand yuan. At his level, he could not use top-notch equipment. The suitable ones were the best. Lin Lei immediately put away the proposal on the table. He gave Jiang Chuqiu a quick reply and didn¡¯t bother anymore. Since he had enough money, he could bring forward the plan. Lin Lei glanced at the map on his phone, planning to go to the largest profession mall in Linhai City. There were too few things in the school¡¯s shops. Basically, they were materials and whiteboard equipment dropped from beginner dungeons. And there was no skill book for the secondary profession that Lin Lei needed. However, the Profession Mall was relatively far away and the items were more expensive. Lin Lei, who had been short on money, could only look on and sigh. Now that his wallet was bulging, he naturally had to buy something good. Lin Lei walked out of the school gate. He had already called for a taxi on his phone. Just as he reached the gate, the other party arrived. He got into the car and went straight to the Mall. Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School was in the suburbs, and the profession mall was in the bustling area of the city center. Lin Lei sat in the car for half an hour before arriving at the entrance. After paying the bill, he looked up at the tall building in front of him. The profession mall was a large business district that belonged to it. The last time Lin Lei had come was when his parents had been around when he was young. At that time, he only remembered that the place was very big. It was like a maze that made people lose their way. After that, he never came again. Now that he had grown up, he did not have to worry about not being able to find the exit. Lin Lei carefully looked at the sign outside the merchant city. After confirming the area he was going to, he chose Gate A3 to enter. Although the profession mall had been open for almost a hundred years¡­ However, it still looked very dazzling. It was said that a lot of money was spent every year on repairs. Lin Lei was surrounded by people. Almost all the professionals in Linhai City had come here. Above them was a high dome that was seven to eight stories high. Coupled with the specially painted paint, if one did not look carefully, they would think that it was the sky. The surrounding shops were also decorated luxuriously, revealing the aura of luxury. Lin Lei didn¡¯t continue reading. Instead, he followed the flow of people to the bookstore. The bookstore in the profession mall was on the third floor. It occupied more than half of the space and was filled with books. These were skill books for various classes, as well as class guides. As for novels and comics that were not beneficial to cultivation, they could only be stored in a narrow corner. Lin Lei headed straight for the sub-occupation skill area. According to the signboard, he arrived at the Pharmacist skill area. He had already thought about it carefully on the way here. As an unspecialized, although he could recover HP every time he switched to a Priest skill, it couldn¡¯t completely solve the problem in the dungeon. Therefore, he needed to get himself a sub-profession as a pharmacist. Now, he bought a beginner sub-occupation skill book according to his needs. He would need a lot of money in the future. Other than the fact that it was very useful to remove negative statuses and add buffs in dungeons, Lin Lei could also rely on pharmacy skills to sell medicine to earn money. Now, because of his low level, 100,000 yuan could be used for a long time. However, after upgrading in the future, ordinary equipment could even be sold for millions. He had to have his own way of earning money. Lin Lei took the skill book and went to pay the bill. This book only cost 3,000 yuan, but it was already enough. He went to a corner, opened the skill book, and learned it on the spot. [Skill Book: Beginner Health Potion (Normal)] [Effect: After using it, you have learned the ordinary skill ¡°Making Beginner Life Potion Lv1¡±] [Prerequisite: Level 0, Pharmacist] After learning the shock of being a pharmacist, Lin Lei still needed to obtain the bonus of a secondary profession. It was to go to the Pharmacist Association and obtain the title certification. He immediately took a taxi to the Pharmacist Association. Chapter 32 - First Clear! Shocking the Pharmacist Association Chapter 32 First Clear! Shocking the Pharmacist Association After arriving at the Pharmacist Association, there were not as many people here as in the professional mall. Although there were many people who chose pharmacy as their secondary profession, most of them still had their own things to do. If it wasn¡¯t an important matter, they wouldn¡¯t usually come to the Pharmacist Association. Lin Lei found the front desk. Every year, many people would be given the title of pharmacist, so this place had already been automated. He could directly hand over the registration fee of 2 gold coins and enter the special dungeon for pharmacists. As long as he could clear the level, Lin Lei would be able to obtain the title of Apprentice Pharmacist. After paying, Lin Lei immediately tore open the scroll. A white light flashed before his eyes. When Lin Lei opened his eyes again, he was already in a medicine room. He heard the system notification and opened it. [You have arrived at the potion room.] [Main mission activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [There will be no punishment for this mission failure.] [You have obtained the Return Scroll. Please note that when you are attacked, the Return Scroll will lose its effect.] [Mission Objective: Refine 100 sets of Blood Recovery Pills to clear the level. Limit time: 10 hours] [Congratulations on obtaining the temporary buff: ¡°Goldfinger¡±] [Positive Buff: Refinement success rate increased by 200%] [Negative Buff: Double the consumables required] After a series of notifications, Lin Lei looked at his frontal buff and nodded in satisfaction. The two buffs this time were not bad. The frontal buff was even more heaven-defying. Once it was offset by the negative buff, it was equivalent to having no effect. He spent twice the amount of medicinal ingredients, but there was a 100% chance of success. This was still Lin Lei¡¯s gain! Lin Lei immediately began to forge. Because this was a trial dungeon, Lin Lei didn¡¯t need to use his own materials. There were materials specially provided by the dungeon. However, these materials were not worth much, compared to the registration fee of 2 Gold Coins. These materials were trash. Even if they were sold as 999 units per stack on the market, they could only be sold for 2 copper coins. Lin Lei felt that the Association of Pharmacists was truly black-hearted. At the same time, he carefully followed the instructions on the side and began to refine medicine. It was not difficult for a pharmacist to refine medicine. As long as there was a medicinal pot and the ingredients were placed in a certain order and proportion, the fire could be controlled and refined. Even if there were problems, it would not cause the potion to fail unless there were too many mistakes. Generally speaking, even if the fire was a little stronger, the quality would at most be a little worse. Lin Lei carefully added the ingredients bit by bit according to the prescription on the table. This was because [Health Recovery Pill] was a beginner potion and was on the same level as [Beginner Health Potion]. However, [Health Recovery Pill] could continuously recover health. [Beginner Life Potion] was replenished in one go. The effect was just different. The difficulty of refining was not as troublesome as high-level potions. Lin Lei carefully placed the Moonlight Grass into the pot. This was the first medicine. When there were small bubbles in the pot, he put the slime mucus in. He did not know how these prescriptions were developed. It was really magical that a combination of strange plants and animal materials could make a HP nourishing medicine. Lin Lei sighed in his heart as he carefully placed it inside. When the pot gradually quietened down, he threw in the last ingredient. The medicinal pot churned violently. Lin Lei suddenly remembered that he hadn¡¯t turned down the fire. However, it was not a big problem. The fire wouldn¡¯t affect the finished product too much. In addition, Lin Lei had a 100% success rate in refining the buff. Even if he made a mistake, the system still notified him that he had successfully refined it. [Blood Recovery Pill successfully refined.] [Item: Health Recovery Pill (Iron)] Function: Recovers 3 HP per second for 10 seconds. Can be stacked repeatedly. Lin Lei put away the [Blood Recovery Pill], feeling somewhat regretful. If the fire was adjusted a little, he should be able to refine an excellent-grade [Blood Recovery Pill]. The effect would be better when used. However, he was not discouraged and continued to refine. With his first experience, Lin Lei¡¯s movements became much faster. As more and more Blood Recovery Pills piled up on the side, Lin Lei¡¯s movements became faster and faster. In a short while, he had successfully refined 100 [Blood Recovery Pills]. He put these pills into his backpack. Although [Blood Recovery Pill] was the most basic medicine and was not worth much in the market¡­ To be able to give Lin Lei the title of Apprentice Pharmacist, he was still filled with joy. After completing his mission, Lin Lei decisively left the pocket dimension. A new class had finally appeared in his Class column. As soon as Lin Lei left the pocket dimension, a flash of light appeared on his body, announcing to everyone that he had already obtained the title of apprentice pharmacist. In the Herbalist Hall outside the instance dungeon, many staff members were paying attention to the situation of the people who had entered the instance dungeon. If they encountered a seedling with potential, they would still have to go forward and recruit him. Seeing Lin Lei come out, the staff member was rather shocked. They had worked here for many years and had long trained to see if the people who came out of the dungeon had the Eyes of Fire and Gold. The first time Lin Lei entered a pocket dimension, he actually received a title. It was unbelievable. ¡°Most people need three or four tries to pass, right?¡± ¡°Looking at the records, this student cleared the dungeon on the first try?¡± ¡°He¡¯s too strong. Did he have a pharmacist teacher to guide him?¡± The staff were all bewildered. They had seen geniuses over the years. However, the refinement of a pharmacist really tested one¡¯s character. Even if all the steps were correct, one just didn¡¯t know what went wrong. The potion would fail. Refining 100 [Blood Recovery Pills] in 10 hours was no different from a fantasy. The other Herbalist Title Dungeons were also abnormal torture. Back then, when these staff members entered the instance dungeon, they had suffered greatly. Unexpectedly, someone was able to complete the quest in one try. Lin Lei glanced at the title of apprentice pharmacist and nodded in satisfaction. [Title: Apprentice Pharmacist (Steel)] [Characteristics: Receives a 5% success rate bonus when refining potions] It was better than nothing. Lin Lei, who had a 100% success rate, didn¡¯t need this title bonus at all. Now, other than the dungeon, the frontal buff was also fixed in his attributes. In the future, his success rate in refining potions would be 200%! However, Lin Lei was not satisfied with just being an apprentice pharmacist. Since the success rate was guaranteed, he planned to continue charging. An apprentice pharmacist was just a beginner. Potions that could be refined were also sold at a very low price. It didn¡¯t match Lin Lei¡¯s money-making plan at all. Therefore, he decisively went to the front desk and bought the next Instance Dungeon scroll. Instance Dungeons above the apprentice pharmacist level needed to be purchased from the staff. When Lin Lei arrived at the front desk, he gave the staff a fright. ¡°Give me a copy of the beginner pharmacist¡¯s dungeon scroll.¡± The staff originally thought that Lin Lei had come over to buy some supplementary medicine. For example, increasing the success rate or improving the quality. He did not expect him to continue leveling up. The staff at the front desk stared blankly at Lin Lei, somewhat dumbfounded. Chapter 33 - Clearing the Dungeon Again with a Buff, What Potion Cant You Make? Chapter 33 Clearing the Dungeon Again with a Buff, What Potion Can¡¯t You Make? The staff member of the Pharmacist Association standing in front of Lin Lei said with a serious and concerned expression. ¡°It¡¯s very difficult to continue leveling up. There¡¯s no need to waste money. The Beginner Herbalist Scroll costs 20 gold coins!¡± The staff was just being kind. After all, there was so much money. Looking at Lin Lei being a student, he might not be able to pay for it. Gold coins could only be obtained by entering an Instance Dungeon. Currently, the currency used was not entirely the gold coins in the Instance Dungeon. Instead, they used more of each country¡¯s own currency. Dungeon gold replaced gold as hard currency. Although an apprentice pharmacist was someone who had just entered the sect, he could make some cheap potions and slowly earn money. There was no punishment for failing to level up the Potioneering Instance Dungeon, but the gold coins would not be returned. Lin Lei didn¡¯t seem to care at all. He waved his hand and said, ¡°It¡¯s fine. Sell it to me. Just treat it as experiencing the feeling of leveling up.¡± Seeing this, the staff knew that he couldn¡¯t persuade Lin Lei. Left with no choice, she could only pass the scroll to him. ¡°This is a scroll for the beginner pharmacist dungeon. Please take it.¡± Lin Lei paid 20 gold coins, took the scroll, and tore it open on the spot. Apart from leveling up, there was no other way to enter the dungeon that was exclusive to subclasses. They also had to come to various sub-profession associations to buy the qualifications. It was really profitable. Lin Lei pondered for a moment. He didn¡¯t pay much attention to it. With a flash of white light, he returned to the potion room again. However, this time, the mission goal was different. [Mission Objective: Refine 200 Rejuvenation Pills and 200 Red Demon Pills to clear the level. Time limit: 10 hours] [Rejuvenation Pill] and [Red Demon Pill] were both beginner potions. However, compared to the [Blood Recovery Pill], the effect was better. It was not difficult to do. The steps were similar to the [Health Recovery Pill], and the materials used increased from three to four. [Rejuvenation Pill] was used to recover HP, and [Red Demon Pill] was used to recover mana. Lin Lei glanced at the buff. [Congratulations on obtaining a temporary buff: Refinement Quality Improvement] [Positive Buff: Refinement Quality +10] [Negative Buff: Failure rate increased by 99%] The buff of improving quality solved the problem of Lin Lei easily making low-quality potions. However, the negative buff made Lin Lei frown. If not for the increase in the previous success rate, just the negative effects of this instance dungeon would have made Lin Lei¡¯s 20 gold coins go to waste. With such a success rate, what potion was there to make? Fortunately, his current success rate was 200%. Even if he deducted 99%, he still had 101%. It was not a big deal. Lin Lei did some calculations, then didn¡¯t mind at all. Although the negative buff looked scary at first glance, But that was all. Lin Lei didn¡¯t need to worry about any problems with his refinement at all. He rolled up his sleeves and started refining according to the prescription on the table. The number of Rejuvenation Pills and Red Demon Pills required was double that of the previous dungeon. Moreover, he had to refine two potions at the same time. Lin Lei decided to boil two medicinal pots and cook them together. It was not that he was bold. In any case, there was a 101% increase in the success rate. No matter how he built it, it would not fail. In addition, the quality would increase. As long as it was made, it would definitely be an excellent quality potion. In order to save time, Lin Lei decided to be bolder. In any case, it was the same refinement. The earlier he left, the faster Lin Lei could clear the Advanced Dungeon. Originally, he had planned to go to the market and buy the Rejuvenation Pills and Red Demon Pills from some students in case of emergencies. After all, advancing to an Advanced Dungeon was very difficult. Lin Lei didn¡¯t want to be careless. He would drink potions when he needed to. Only a fool would court death and fail the mission. This time, the dungeon mission was to refine these two potions. This saved Lin Lei the trouble of purchasing them. His movements became much more casual as he threw the ingredients into the medicinal pot. After all, he had refined 100 [Blood Recovery Pills] in the previous dungeon. He was almost numb to refining them. If not for the fact that he still needed to manually do the first few steps, he would have been able to memorize the operation automation later on. Lin Lei would rather die than continue refining. Fortunately, the refining of potions in this world was the same as in the game. He did not need to slowly refine them one by one. That was why he was able to leave the instance dungeon so quickly. This time, Lin Lei followed the previous round and quickly refined a few times, letting the medicinal pot remember them. What happened next was that the medicinal pot automatically refined the medicine. Lin Lei had freed his hands. Soon, 200 Rejuvenation Pills and 200 Red Demon Pills were freshly produced. Lin Lei took it out to take a look. [Rejuvenation Pill successfully refined.] [Item: Rejuvenation Pill (Refined)] Function: Recovers 10 HP per second for 30 seconds. Can be stacked repeatedly. [Red Demon Pill successfully refined.] [Item: Red Demon Pill (Refined)] [Function: Restores 10 mana points per second for 30 seconds. Can be stacked repeatedly.] Compared to the Rejuvenation Pill, the Rejuvenation Pill was indeed trash. However, since it could be stacked, it was better than nothing. Putting it in his backpack, he could throw it into his mouth in the future and eat it like candy. After completing all the requirements for the dungeon, Lin Lei casually exited the dungeon. Now that he was satisfied and the preparations were done, he could arrange for the advancement of the dungeon. With a flash of light, Lin Lei appeared in the Apothecary Hall again. After completing the Instance Dungeon, he did not intend to stay any longer. He turned around and left. What Lin Lei didn¡¯t know was that his short few hours at the Association of Pharmacists had already been noticed. He had entered the upgraded dungeon twice in a row. And he had succeeded both times. It was clearly the first time he went in, but he acted so confident. The staff at the front desk of the Pharmacist Association hurriedly reported Lin Lei¡¯s appearance and what he had done to the higher-ups of the Pharmacist Association. If it was just an apprentice pharmacist who succeeded in one try, it was not completely impossible. After all, there was no lack of geniuses in this world. But Lin Lei¡¯s second junior pharmacist dungeon was also passed as well. Moreover, the difference between the two was less than a day! Lin Lei¡¯s talent as a pharmacist was truly terrifying! The staff at the front desk still remembered that when he first learned to be a pharmacist, it took him a year just to remember the various types of materials and various medicinal effects. However, even with such ample preparation, he still failed. The third time he entered the subclass dungeon, he barely passed. If not for his teacher¡¯s help, he might not have been able to pass it in his entire life. However, Lin Lei¡¯s performance was so relaxed. He immediately reported this matter to the higher-ups. The front desk staff¡¯s report was sent up layer by layer, attracting the attention of one of the pharmacists. ¡°Cleared in one go? Two advancement dungeons in a day?¡± ¡°What an interesting little fellow.¡± In the office of the Pharmacist Association, a pharmacist looked at the report in his hand and raised his eyebrows with interest. He did not expect such a genius to exist now. What kind of person was he? Chapter 34 - Advanced Instance Dungeon, Lets Make It Quick Chapter 34 Advanced Instance Dungeon, Let¡¯s Make It Quick Lin Lei left the Pharmacist Association and hailed a taxi back to his dormitory. An ordinary alchemist would be exhausted after refining for a few hours. However, Lin Lei was full of energy. Because he used the rest of the time to take a short break. In any case, the medicinal pot would automatically refine it later, although it still needed to be watched just in case. However, there was actually no need to keep a close eye on it. In order to be energetic in the upgraded instance dungeon, he seized the time to rest well. After returning to his dormitory, Lin Lei took out some materials from his backpack that he had no use for at the moment. He placed it in the storage cabinet in the dormitory. Each student has his own locker. The space had been opened up, and something the size of a room could be placed inside. Those that were not usually used were directly placed inside. There weren¡¯t many things in Lin Lei¡¯s locker. There was nothing special that needed to be placed before. Now that he placed these equipment and materials, it did not seem so empty. He would take these things out when he needed them in the future. Now that he had no use for them, it would be a pity to sell them, so Lin Lei put them away. After sorting everything out, Lin Lei confirmed again his equipment and the potions he had brought. After all the questions were answered, Lin Lei headed straight for the entrance to the advanced dungeon. There was also an entrance to the Advanced Dungeon in the school, but there had never been many people here. It looked very deserted. The teacher in charge of guarding was so bored that he sat at the side and played games on his phone. Lin Lei arrived at the entrance of the pocket dimension. Seeing that his teacher was engrossed in playing games, he didn¡¯t disturb him. Instead, he used the scroll himself. [Advanced Dungeon (Grade D)] [Number Requirement: 1] [Level: 10] [Difficulty: Iron] [Prerequisite: Level 10, Entry Scroll x1] Lin Lei took a deep breath and began. With a flash of white light, Lin Lei¡¯s figure disappeared from the entrance of the pocket dimension. The teacher who was playing the game seemed to have sensed something, but when he looked up, he did not see anything. [You have arrived at the advanced instance dungeon.] [Main mission 1 has been activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Warning: The death penalty in the D-rank dungeon is -2. Mission failed. Attributes permanently -2] [You have obtained the Return Scroll. Please note that when you are attacked, the Return Scroll will lose its effect.] [Quest Objective: Kill 100 Mutated Rats. Time limit: 3 hours] Lin Lei appeared in the pocket dimension. This pocket dimension was different from the previous one. It was a void of white. There was no end to the pure white space. This was the battle platform specially prepared for advanced dungeons. Lin Lei calmed himself down and once again looked at the buff he had obtained. [Congratulations on obtaining a temporary buff: Endless Slaughter] [Positive Buff: Every time you kill a unit of the same level, you will gain 1 Physical and Magic Attack. No upper limit!] [Negative Buff: 1% HP will be deducted every 5 seconds] ¡°Holy shit!¡± Lin Lei, who had always been calm, couldn¡¯t help but gasp when he saw this frontal buff appear. This buff was too heaven-defying! The invincible buff had actually appeared! According to the introduction of the frontal buff, Lin Lei only needed to stack it infinitely and continuously kill monsters of the same level. Wouldn¡¯t he be able to kill a boss in an instant? In the past, Lin Lei had fantasized that he would be able to kill the Boss with one shot. However, that was just a dream. However, now that the buff of [Endless Slaughter] had appeared, it seemed that his previous fantasies could become reality! Lin Lei was instantly excited. He controlled his emotions and calmed down. With the invincible shock of the [Endless Slaughter], Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid at all. Advanced Instance Dungeons? Whatever! Lin Lei immediately began his challenge. [Countdown to the appearance of Mutated Rat: 5 seconds] Lin Lei drew his [Longsword of Light] and prepared himself. The monsters in the first stage were immediately respawned. It happened to be the [Mutated Rat] from the multiplayer dungeon. They were old acquaintances. Lin Lei now had a new buff. It was easy to kill these [Mutated Rats]. To Lin Lei, these monsters were no threat at all. He even put away the weapon with the strongest attack power in his hand and replaced it with a dagger. It was a good opportunity to test out the new combat method that Lin Lei planned to use. In just a moment, all the [Mutated Rats] had been killed by Lin Lei. Every time he killed a rat, Lin Lei would hear a wonderful system notification. [Mutated Rat killed. Increases physical and magic attack by 1 point.] [Mutated Rat killed. Increases physical and magic attack by 1 point.] [Mutated Rat killed. Increases physical and magic attack by 1 point.] The system notification kept jumping. Lin Lei¡¯s subordinates had also killed quite a few [Mutant Rats]. In a moment, he killed all the [Mutant Rats] in the first stage. With the first stage¡¯s good start, The next few stages were also very easy to fight. The monsters in the second stage were only slightly stronger than the [Mutated Rat]. The level was still the same. To Lin Lei, there was no need to worry about monsters of this level. He continued to kill indiscriminately. Phases 3, 4 and 5. These monsters would cause huge trouble for other students. To Lin Lei, it was too simple. Starting from the sixth stage, the monster¡¯s level had also risen to Level 10. However, even though these monsters had become stronger, they still didn¡¯t cause Lin Lei any trouble. The longsword in his hand easily killed the monster. The system¡¯s beautiful notification sounded in his ears. Lin Lei felt that this advancement mission was too awesome. Until Lin Lei casually reached the eighth stage. Monsters at this stage were finally interesting. The eighth stage monster was [Dark Monkey]. Although the black monkey was still Level 10, its speed was much faster than other monsters. [Monster: Dark Monkey] [Level: 10] [HP: 20] [Attack Power: 10-15] [Defense: 3] [Skills: Sonic Attack, Summoning Companions] [Description: A monkey hiding in the dark. It has extremely strong night vision and agility. Be careful not to be targeted by it.] [Dark Monkey]¡¯s agility was very high. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t used to it at first, and was scratched by the [Dark Monkey]. A bright red -3 appeared above his head. To Lin Lei¡¯s health, this loss of health was nothing. However, due to the negative buff, his HP kept dropping. Therefore, if he wanted to clear the advanced dungeon, he had to avoid getting injured. Although he already had a lot of recovery medicine on him, However, Lin Lei still tried his best to dodge the monster¡¯s attacks. The [Dark Monkey] was very fast, but Lin Lei was even faster! He put away the [Longsword of Light] and used the [Metal Dagger] to carefully deal with the [Dark Monkey]. He slowed down a little. However, the Dark Monkey¡¯s health points weren¡¯t high. As long as it took a hit from Lin Lei, it would be directly killed. Therefore, it did not take much effort. The monsters of the eighth stage were all cleared out by Lin Lei. As for the negative buff, as long as he kept taking medicine, it wouldn¡¯t affect Lin Lei much. Chapter 35 - Thats It for Advanced Bosses? Chapter 35 That¡¯s It for Advanced Bosses? Chapter 35: This Is It? With the attack power of the frontal buff, Lin Lei¡¯s killing efficiency was not slow, but rather fast. Originally, even Lin Lei would have to spend some effort to deal with monsters of the same level. However, with [Endless Slaughter], this crazy overlaying buff¡­ The monsters that spawned at every stage were all Lin Lei¡¯s experience packs. Every time he killed one more, he would obtain 1 point of stacking. His rapid killing efficiency also attracted the attention of the staff outside. The teacher who was guarding the entrance of the instance dungeon casually glanced at the data backstage. However, he was surprised to find that there was an abnormality in the data of the instance dungeon. This teacher did not dare to continue playing games. Instead, he hurriedly called for the other staff. When the staff arrived at the scene, they were a little surprised to see the strange data. The contents of the advanced dungeon could not be read, Thus, these staff members couldn¡¯t see Lin Lei¡¯s movements in the pocket dimension. However, he could check the completion speed of the stage. The speed of skipping a stage in a few minutes. The staff could not help but be puzzled. Could this be a bug? The staff members were bewildered and looked at each other. A staff member came forward to examine the machine. This machine could monitor the data situation in the instance dungeon in real time. It was also to obtain data support that could better guide students. What if some strange data appeared in the dungeon? They could also appear in time to solve the problem. However, looking at the terrifying advancement speed in front of him, The staff looked at each other. After everyone was stunned for a while, one of the staff shouted, ¡°We can¡¯t handle this problem. Quickly call the manager over!¡± Another staff member hurriedly ran outside to look for the manager. The Chamber of Commerce was in charge of this machine. Their Chamber of Commerce would provide various testing machines and distribute them to various schools. If there was a problem with the machine, it would be a crisis in the reputation of their chamber of commerce. Lin Lei¡¯s unprecedented speed of advancement made the staff feel afraid. What if something really happened to their machine? There was a lot of money to compensate. The staff were like ants on a hot pan, waiting anxiously. Soon, the manager was pulled over by the staff. He saw the data on the machine and didn¡¯t think much of it. ¡°Why are you guys so nervous? I thought it was something big, but it¡¯s just you guys making a fuss.¡± ¡°Are you guys so ignorant? Why are you so scared of someone advancing fast?¡± As the person-in-charge of this area, the manager was very knowledgeable. Advanced instance dungeons had many failures. There were also many people who had difficulty leveling up step by step after entering the advanced dungeon. But geniuses like Lin Lei, who could quickly clear advanced instance dungeons, were not unique. Therefore, the manager did not care at all. When the others heard the manager¡¯s reprimand, they were instantly speechless. They did not think that they were making a fuss at all. After all, Lin Lei¡¯s speed was already astonishing. However, seeing the manager¡¯s indifferent expression, Everyone could only give up. In the pocket dimension, Lin Lei was completely unaware of the conflict outside. He completed stage 9 in no time at all. He had finally reached the tenth stage of the Overlord Boss. The last stage gave him a completely different feeling from before. Although some of the monsters in front had reached Level 10, But compared to Lin Lei¡¯s regeneration speed and defense, their combat strength was like scratching an itch. If not for the negative buff of losing HP, Lin Lei didn¡¯t need to worry at all about being attacked. However, this time, the boss of stage 10 appeared. Lin Lei could sense an ominous aura surrounding the arena. In a ball of black fog. A huge and ferocious ox head appeared from the black fog. Then, it raised its head and howled. The black fog was dispersed. The monster inside was revealed. [Monster: Evil Minotaur (Steel)] [Level: 10] [HP: 300] [Attack Power: 20~25] [Defense: 30] [Skills: Jump Cleave, Whirlwind Slash, Death Breath] [Description: An evil Lord Boss with extremely strong defense. As the boss at the bottom of the level, it has been waiting for you for a long time.] The appearance of this monster was obviously unusual. Lin Lei carefully changed into his strongest weapon. Although from the data, this [Evil Minotaur] did not seem to be that terrifying. Moreover, it was only at the Dark Iron level. Their combat strength was not high. But on account that it was the boss, Lin Lei still gave it enough respect. However, his caution was unnecessary. Lin Lei gripped his longsword and activated a Basic Sword Technique. It ruthlessly stabbed into the minotaur¡¯s abdomen. [Evil Minotaur]¡¯s head had a bright red -50. It let out a miserable cry and swung its axe at Lin Lei. Lin Lei retreated, dodging the Boss¡¯ attack. This time, he finally saw the strength of the [Evil Minotaur]. Even though he was the boss at the bottom of the level. However, their combat strength was only SO-SO. Its defense couldn¡¯t withstand a single strike from Lin Lei. Although his appearance was a little deterrent, However, it only looked ferocious. It could be considered unlucky to have encountered Lin Lei. If it was an ordinary rookie who came to an advanced instance dungeon, If they had fought all the way to the boss at the bottom of the stage¡­ Just to see how fierce and powerful the Boss was¡­ In addition, it would be someone who had lost HP and was constantly fearful from the battle up until this point. Most of the time, the ability to fight would change because of fear. Then, they¡¯d be caught by the boss and attacked. And tragically sent out of the dungeon by the Boss. However, under Lin Lei¡¯s probing attack, He realized that this [Evil Minotaur] was only superficial. It was fine to scare newbies, but it was useless to scare him. Lin Lei immediately gripped the [Longsword of Light]. After a few skills. [Evil Minotaur]¡¯s HP dropped rapidly. Lin Lei quickly dealt with the [Evil Minotaur]. [Evil Minotaur] let out a wail and fell to the ground. The Advanced Boss was killed by Lin Lei just like that. The staff who had been paying attention to him widened their eyes. ¡°F*ck! He really passed!¡± ¡°How many minutes did it take from stage 9 to stage 10?!¡± ¡°The last boss was defeated in just a few minutes?¡± ¡°What kind of monster is this?¡± ¡°Our previous record was to clear the boss in half an hour, right?¡± A few staff members gathered in front of the surveillance room equipment and whispered. They had already left the entrance of the instance dungeon and arrived at the backstage of their own company. The manager wanted to go back, but when he saw such an outstanding talent, he stayed behind to take a second look. He did not expect to see such a huge surprise. Lin Lei¡¯s results shocked the manager. He sucked in a breath of cold air. Could he have seen it wrongly? The manager repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the progress time displayed on the machine. He was so shocked that his hands trembled. ¡°Our machine isn¡¯t broken, is it?¡± Chapter 36 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios [Main Mission 10 completed] [Current clearance evaluation is S-rank. Beginning clearance settlement.] [The Advanced Dungeon has ended] [Current Iron Class has successfully advanced.] [Current Profession Level: Bronze] [Reward: All attributes +5] Lin Lei came out of the pocket dimension and stretched, feeling refreshed. The advanced instance dungeon was finally completed. This was also the most troublesome Instance Dungeon he had ever played. There were a total of ten stages. Even to Lin Lei, it was as easy as crushing a withered tree. However, it was still very troublesome. It was not easy for him to complete ten advancement missions. Lin Lei¡¯s profession had also successfully leveled up. Now, he planned to return to the dormitory. Advanced dungeons did not consume much of his energy. But as he pushed, Lin Lei felt a little tired. Lin Lei took a step forward and left through the entrance of the pocket dimension. As soon as he left, the manager noticed the abnormality of the pocket dimension. The manager in charge of the instance dungeon was dumbfounded. ¡°How can someone pass so quickly?!¡± ¡°Hurry up and investigate. There must be something wrong!¡± ¡°If there¡¯s a bug in the dungeon¡¯s operation, the results just now will be invalid!¡± The manager was anxious. After all, this instance dungeon belonged to their company. If there was a problem with the replica¡¯s program¡­ Perhaps there were problems with the first few instance dungeons as well. At that time, the manager would be blamed for malfeasance. He went all the way to the bottom. Being the person in charge of an instance dungeon was supposed to be such an easy thing to do. It was not easy for the manager to get this job. What if he was unlucky because of this small matter? The manager had to suppress it no matter what. The employees quickly stopped watching the show. All of them went to check the route carefully. Some of them looked back through the surveillance cameras. They wanted to see if Lin Lei was carrying any tools that violated the rules. For example, Legendary equipment that should not have been available at his level. However, after all the checks were done, There was still no problem. Lin Lei¡¯s results this time were real. There was no falsehood at all. The manager was dumbfounded. How was this possible? It was impossible for such a young student to achieve such results. There were quite a number of people who could only enter advanced dungeons after graduating from school. How could a student like Lin Lei achieve such an easy result? The manager didn¡¯t want to believe it. The reality was right in front of him. Could it be that he had missed a genius? Only then did the manager react. If he took the opportunity to get close to Lin Lei¡­ Would he have a chance to build a relationship with Lin Lei? If he could make some connections with such a genius. The manager might be able to rise to the top. But now, Lin Lei was no longer outside. The manager could only be furious in his heart. On the other side, Lin Lei had just arrived at the dormitory building. He was about to go in and rest. But he was stopped by someone. They were classmates from the dormitory next door. ¡°Where did you go? The homeroom teacher is looking for you. He said that you should go to his office when you come back.¡± After speaking, the student didn¡¯t wait for Lin Lei to react. He turned around and left. The other party was also busy and wanted to continue cultivating. Hearing this, Lin Lei was somewhat puzzled. Why was the homeroom teacher looking for him? But hearing this classmate¡¯s words, Lin Lei still rushed to his office. In Cai Qiang¡¯s office. He was currently respectfully receiving a middle-aged man. Cai Qiang¡¯s face was full of smiles. ¡°Please wait a little longer. They should be here soon.¡± ¡°Lin Lei is just too hardworking.¡± ¡°I heard that he went to the instance dungeon because he wanted to practice more.¡± Cai Qiang spared no effort in praising Lin Lei in front of the middle-aged man. This middle-aged man was wearing an expensive robe. He glanced at the tea on the table and carefully picked it up to take a sip. Then, he said with a smile. ¡°It¡¯s good for young people to be motivated.¡± His behavior seemed to be a little friendly. However, it could be seen from his finger movements and body language. This middle-aged man actually did not care about Cai Qiang¡¯s words. His gaze swept over the door, intentionally or otherwise. It was as if they were waiting for Lin Lei¡¯s arrival. Cai Qiang also knew what the other party was thinking. However, it was not easy for someone to come knocking on his door. And he had come for Lin Lei. Cai Qiang was a little happy. Recalling Lin Lei¡¯s performance in the dungeon not long ago, Cai Qiang felt that he had not chosen the wrong person. Lin Lei¡¯s future would definitely be limitless. Just as the middle-aged man was impatiently dealing with Cai Qiang, Lin Lei finally arrived. ¡°Teacher, why were you looking for me?¡± Lin Lei walked in. Cai Qiang raised his head and saw Lin Lei. He hurriedly and enthusiastically pulled him to the middle-aged man. ¡°Lin Lei, you¡¯re finally here.¡± ¡°Come and meet Shan Yongkang, Mr. Shan.¡± ¡°This is from the head of the Pharmacist Association.¡± Lin Lei was completely confused. Why did the people from the Pharmacist Association come looking for him? Could it be that someone had noticed him grinding in the Pharmacist Association? Before Lin Lei could express his doubts. Shan Yongkang sized up Lin Lei. A reserved smile appeared on his face. ¡°Not bad, you¡¯re indeed a talented person.¡± ¡°I¡¯m here on behalf of Pavilion Elder Zhang.¡± ¡°Elder Zhang expressed his intention to take you in as his disciple.¡± ¡°I¡¯m here to inspect him.¡± When Shan Yongkang said this, Lin Lei was puzzled. The pharmacist came to him. Lin Lei had no interest in becoming a pharmacist. It was just his second job. Although Lin Lei was only an unspecialized now, But he could use any kind of weapon. Coupled with his trump card¡­ Why did he have to be a support class with no future? Once Shan Yongkang finished speaking¡­ Cai Qiang quickly spoke up. ¡°Right now, Lin Lei¡¯s development is not bad.¡± ¡°Let him think about it.¡± Cai Qiang naturally didn¡¯t want Lin Lei to become a support class. After all, this was a world where the strong were respected. What future could a support class have? Only combat professions were the best home. Although Lin Lei had now awakened a negative talent, As a result, he could only become an unspecialized. But it was still better than becoming a pharmacist. After all, although pharmacists were rich, They would also be supported by the various large families and factions. However, the status of a pharmacist was definitely not as high as a powerful combat profession. Shan Yongkang understood when he saw Cai Qiang¡¯s attitude. He smiled coldly. ¡°I know about you too.¡± ¡°Lin Lei, because of your negative talent, you can only choose to be an unspecialized.¡± ¡°You also know how trashy the profession of unspecialized is.¡± ¡°Do you want to be stepped on for the rest of your life?¡± ¡°With your talent, it¡¯s impossible for you to choose a combat profession.¡± ¡°Rather than being an unspecialized.¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you be a pharmacist?¡± ¡°Pharmacists have a lot of potential.¡± ¡°As long as you¡¯re willing, you can join any family or faction.¡± ¡°You better think this through.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t just be listening to the teacher.¡± ¡°Lin Lei, your choice in the future is up to you.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t think that just because the pharmacist is merely a support profession.¡± ¡°As long as you¡¯re willing, you can also learn how to make lethal potions.¡± ¡°When the time comes, it won¡¯t be a problem to enter the dungeon alone!¡± Chapter 37 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Although Lin Lei didn¡¯t intend to change his unspecialized profession, But after hearing Shan Yongkang¡¯s words¡­ He was also a little tempted. After all, using potions as a demonstration was just a superficial job. Not bad. If he could have a place in the Pharmacist Association. Lin Lei could also use this opportunity to use more potions as supplementary measures in the pocket dimension. Seeing that Lin Lei was somewhat tempted, Cai Qiang was also persuaded at this moment. After all, Lin Lei was an unspecialized. He had no ability to compete with other combat professions. Instead of letting Lin Lei fantasize and be dragged down by the unspecialized class¡­ It was better to let Lin Lei become a pharmacist. At the very least, this way, Lin Lei would be able to obtain more benefits. Cai Qiang hesitated for a moment before speaking. ¡°Mr. Shan has a point.¡± ¡°Lin Lei, think carefully.¡± ¡°Pharmacists can get a lot of benefits too.¡± ¡°If you want, you can join the Pharmacist Association and become an apprentice to the head of the council.¡± Since Cai Qiang had said so, Lin Lei had some thoughts. He thought for a moment and asked. ¡°If I join the Pharmacist Association, will I still be able to enter dungeons freely?¡± Shan Yongkang found it funny. He said, ¡°What are you thinking? Since you¡¯ve joined the Pharmacist Association¡­¡± ¡°Of course you have to learn about pharmaceutics from the head of the council.¡± ¡°Although the pharmacists can also do dungeons.¡± ¡°But pharmacists learn a lot every day.¡± ¡°Plus, you¡¯re the head¡¯s disciple.¡± ¡°What time do you have to go to the dungeon?¡± ¡°Just learning about medicine is enough for you.¡± Shan Yongkang¡¯s words immediately made Lin Lei give up on the idea of learning. After all, he did not intend to stay in the Pharmacist Association forever. It was just a small trick to hide his identity. There was no need to waste time staying at the Pharmacist Association. He frowned and said. ¡°So if I join your association, I won¡¯t have time to dungeon and level up, right?¡± Shan Yongkang burst into laughter. ¡°After becoming a pharmacist, fame and profit are at your fingertips.¡± ¡°Why do you have to spend so much effort to clear dungeons yourself?¡± ¡°As long as you sit in the Pharmacist Association and issue missions, a large number of people will be willing to give you materials for money.¡± ¡°At that time, you won¡¯t need to level up!¡± Lin Lei knew what the other party was thinking. He understood that most of the pharmacists in the association had such a philosophy. He did not intend to invest too much effort in supporting professions. Since it would affect the upgrade of his main storyline. Lin Lei didn¡¯t waste any more words. He rejected her outright. ¡°In that case, forget it.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have time to waste on this.¡± However, Lin Lei¡¯s rejection received an intense reaction from Cai Qiang. Cai Qiang panicked on the spot. ¡°Lin Lei, have you really thought it through?¡± ¡°Although I also thought you were suitable for a combat profession at first.¡± ¡°But isn¡¯t your negative talent more suitable for the Pharmacist Association?¡± ¡°Also, do you know who Mr. Shan is representing?¡± ¡°That¡¯s one of the few pharmacists in Yunjing City!¡± ¡°Countless people are fighting to become his disciple!¡± ¡°If you can become his disciple, even if you have such a negative talent, it won¡¯t be a problem.¡± ¡°If you continue to enter the Instance Dungeon, it¡¯s very likely that you won¡¯t be able to level up because your level and equipment can¡¯t keep up.¡± ¡°You might even lose his life!¡± Cai Qiang said a lot. They were all too worried about Lin Lei. After all, although Lin Lei¡¯s performance in the dungeon was stunning, However, this was all based on the advantage of being an unspecialized in the early stages. If Lin Lei continued like this in the future¡­ One day, they would not be able to keep up with the growth of other combat professions. Moreover, he would be injured and die in the dungeon, causing his level to be reduced to zero. As the homeroom teacher, Cai Qiang still hoped that Lin Lei could choose a safer path. Hearing this, Lin Lei shook his head. ¡°Teacher, you don¡¯t have to worry about me.¡± ¡°I have my own plans.¡± Shan Yongkang was also dumbfounded. He had thought that he would definitely succeed in persuading him. After all, Lin Lei was just an ordinary student. Even if he was first in the exam. It did not mean that he could rely on the early advantage of being an unspecialized to reach the end. Unexpectedly, Lin Lei refused. Shan Yongkang also advised. ¡°Lin Lei, you¡¯d better think carefully.¡± ¡°Elder Zhang¡¯s doesn¡¯t just recruit anyone.¡± ¡°If you miss this chance, you might not have another chance in the future.¡± Lin Lei, however, appeared extremely determined. ¡°There¡¯s no need. I won¡¯t go.¡± After speaking, Lin Lei didn¡¯t continue to stay in the office. Instead, he turned around and left. Seeing this, Cai Qiang could only lower his head and apologize to Shan Yongkang. ¡°I¡¯m really sorry.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t expect Lin Lei to be so stubborn.¡± ¡°Perhaps the young man is more angry. He still wants to rely on his own ability to break through the south wall.¡± Shan Yongkang waved his hand, his face filled with mixed emotions. He did not show any anger. However, he was not in a good mood after being rejected by a student. After this episode passed. Lin Lei didn¡¯t take this matter to heart. After all, his goal was to become stronger. Three days passed quickly. During this period of time, Lin Lei waited for the notice. As he furiously refreshed dungeons, he farmed equipment and sold them. In any case, they had not officially entered the school yet. This time was perfect for him to make use of. Lin Lei had worked so hard to clear these dungeons, but he hadn¡¯t gained much. After all, the output of ordinary dungeons was only so-so. Fortunately, he could obtain a positive buff when he went to dungeons. During this period of time, Lin Lei had obtained a decent positive buff. [Received in Peril: When receiving a fatal blow, HP is maintained at 1 point for 5 seconds.] With this buff, Lin Lei could even challenge Bosses who were many levels higher than him. After all, no matter how powerful the other party¡¯s attack was, Even Lin Lei could forcefully seal his blood. However, he did not need this function in his current dungeon. Thus, Lin Lei could only use it as his trump card for now. It might be useful when the moment arrived. Over the past few days, Lin Lei had been grinding dungeons. His level finally increased. He had finally reached Level 12. Lin Lei was currently grinding level 10 to 15 dungeons. However, because scrolls could not be used in any dungeon. Lin Lei could only randomly grind. Fortunately, his luck was pretty good these few days. There wouldn¡¯t be too much of a difference in levels every time. It also allowed him to level up easily. Other than spending a little more effort, it was not bad. Just as the system¡¯s wonderful upgrade notification appeared. The phone in Lin Lei¡¯s pocket rang. He recognized the sound of a text message. Lin Lei couldn¡¯t wait to take out his phone. Yunjing¡¯s admission notice was finally here! [Congratulations to candidate Lin Lei. Your results in the dungeon examination were outstanding. You have successfully passed the admission test of Yunjing Academy.] [Please go to Yunjing Academy the day after receiving this notice and complete the admission report.] [Yunjing Academy sincerely welcomes all students to join.] Chapter 38 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Early the next morning. Lin Lei then unpacked his luggage from the dormitory. However, he did not intend to bring it to Yunjing by himself. Instead, it was mailed. He would let his luggage reach Yunjing Academy first. He was taking the high-speed rail. Lin Lei had just come out of his dormitory. He encountered a large group of students. Lin Lei saw many familiar figures inside. These were his classmates. These people didn¡¯t look down on Lin Lei just because he was an unspecialized. Usually, in class, Lin Lei¡¯s popularity was not bad. Although there were some people who were jealous of Lin Lei. But most of the students still admired Lin Lei¡¯s ability very much. After all, he had relied on himself to obtain the first place in the school. Moreover, after awakening such a disgusting negative talent, He was still working hard to clear dungeons. He did not give up on himself. Thus, after these students found out that Lin Lei had been accepted by Yunjing Academy, They all came to send him off. ¡°Lin Lei, send us a message when you reach Yunjing Academy!¡± ¡°That¡¯s right. Let¡¯s see how good the number one school in the country is!¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be overshadowed by those rich second-generation heirs when you go to Yunjing! You¡¯re the double number one in our school!¡± ¡°Brother Lin, don¡¯t be bullied wherever you go. We¡¯re all waiting for your letter!¡± Although these students didn¡¯t usually interact much with Lin Lei, But now, Lin Lei had gone to Yunjing. They were also honored. There were also people among them who wanted to befriend Lin Lei. But usually, Lin Lei acted like he was unapproachable. Even if they had the intention. They could only look on and sigh. Lin Lei waved his hand. ¡°You guys can go back.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll send word when I get there.¡± The students escorted Lin Lei out of the dormitory. At this moment, he was acting like a hero. After all, that was Yunjing Academy. It was the highest academy that everyone yearned for. Everyone present envied Lin Lei for being accepted. They walked all the way to the entrance of the dormitory. A figure had been waiting here for a long time. Lin Lei raised his head to look. So it was the homeroom teacher. Cai Qiang looked at Lin Lei with a complicated expression. He was happy that his student had been accepted by Yunjing Academy. On the other side, he was rather worried. Lin Lei refused to join the Pharmacist Association. Although he was accepted by Yunjing Academy, But he was only an unspecialized. He wanted to make a name for himself in the number one academy in the country. It was comparable to an SSS difficulty dungeon. Cai Qiang was naturally willing to believe in the excellence of his students. However, he did not dare to bet on his future development. At this moment, seeing Lin Lei in high spirits, preparing to leave, Cai Qiang sighed deeply. ¡°Go to Yunjing Academy and try not to have any conflicts with others.¡± ¡°There are a lot of big families over there.¡± ¡°You have a weak background.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be rash.¡± Cai Qiang was filled with worry. However, he really hoped that his student would become better and better. Unfortunately, Lin Lei always seemed to have his own ideas. Because he saw his teacher¡¯s worried gaze. He smiled. ¡°Teacher, don¡¯t worry.¡± ¡°I¡¯ll call you when I get there.¡± Cai Qiang looked deeply at Lin Lei. He wanted to imprint the most outstanding student he had taught into his mind. ¡°Go. Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 High School can no longer accommodate a dragon like you.¡± Cai Qiang patted Lin Lei on the shoulder. Lin Lei laughed, but didn¡¯t say anything. He glanced at the crowd behind him. ¡°There¡¯s no need to send me off.¡± ¡°I hope that all of you will have a bright future.¡± ¡°Farewell.¡± After speaking, Lin Lei strode away without any hesitation. Behind him. His classmates and Cai Qiang watched him leave with worried gazes. The students from the other schools who heard the news were jealous. They were jealous of Lin Lei¡¯s classmates. They were also envious of Lin Lei for being able to get into Yunjing Academy. But Lin Lei¡¯s performance in the exam dungeon¡­ It was really shocking. Lin Lei threw all of this to the back of his mind. With the ticket in hand, he quickly boarded the high-speed rail to Yunjing. From Linhai City to Yunjing, they had to take a three-hour high-speed train. It was neither long nor short. In the car, Lin Lei closed his eyes to rest. In just a moment, he arrived at the high-speed rail station in Yunjing. Lin Lei stretched lazily and stepped off the high-speed rail. Yunjing City was indeed the capital. He was surrounded by tall buildings. The high-speed rail station was also bustling with noise. Lin Lei looked around. However, he did not see the admissions office of Yunjing Academy. He thought for a moment and took out a recruitment guide from his pocket. This was what Cai Qiang had stuffed into his pocket before he left. Lin Lei took it out to take a look. It directly stated that he needed to report to Yunjing Academy on his own. In other words, Yunjing Academy would not be like other academies. He directly brought the new students into the academy. Instead, he let the students go themselves. Lin Lei flipped open the guide and looked at the map. Soon, he found the name of Yunjing Academy written on the map. He followed the directions on the map and took a car. As the car approached the range of Yunjing Academy, The driver stopped the car. ¡°Little student, you¡¯re not allowed to enter the front.¡± ¡°This is as far as I can take you.¡± The driver stuck his head out to look at Lin Lei, who had gotten out of the car. Lin Lei nodded and waved at the driver. He walked straight in. Although this area was divided into the areas of Yunjing Academy, However, he looked like he was deep in the mountains and forests. If one only looked at this place, it was impossible to imagine that it was within the boundaries of Yunjing City. The surroundings were filled with towering trees. There were even birds chirping in the distance. Could such a remote place be the location of Yunjing Academy? However, he remembered that Linhai City¡¯s No. 1 Middle School was also in the suburbs. Lin Lei felt relieved. He stepped forward. He searched for the map¡¯s guidance. Soon, they arrived at the coordinates of Yunjing Academy. But this was just a grand square. Row after row of seats formed a ring that extended infinitely. Lin Lei walked down from between the seats. He walked all the way to the bottom of the square. There was a teleportation gate in the middle. But there were no other buildings around. Could this be the so-called Yunjing Academy? Lin Lei was completely confused. Many students crawled out from all directions one after another. They all walked from the top of the square to the side of the portal. Many of them looked like new students like Lin Lei. As for the others, they were older students. Their attitudes were completely different from Lin Lei and the others. He seemed to be used to this scene. The new students complained. ¡°Is the logo on this map wrong?¡± ¡°Can such a place be called Yunjing Academy?¡± ¡°Are you kidding me? I actually have to climb seven to eight kilometers to reach this lousy square.¡± ¡°Yunjing Academy is making such a scene. Are they trying to show off their strength to us freshmen?¡± ¡°Where exactly is Yunjing Academy?¡± Faced with the students¡¯ complaints, The seniors just laughed. The old birds straightened their collars. All of them put on mysterious looks. ¡°In front of you is Yunjing Academy.¡± ¡°The renowned top academy in the country!¡± Chapter 39 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The senior¡¯s words immediately shocked the new students. ¡°How is that possible?¡± ¡°How can Yunjing Academy only have this teleportation door?¡± The new students were shocked. The old birds just laughed at the side. ¡°I didn¡¯t know you gentlemen were so stupid.¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t take a genius to figure out how the academy can be just a portal.¡± ¡°We said this was the academy.¡± ¡°It means the main body of Yunjing Academy, in this eternal dungeon.¡± ¡°As the number one academy in the country, do you think it¡¯s that simple?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t laugh at them. You weren¡¯t any better back then.¡± Immediately, an older student came to undermine him. Hearing the senior student¡¯s words, the others were unhappy. ¡°This is part of the new students¡¯ education. Don¡¯t delay our lessons for the new students.¡± When the teachers said this. The person who had just rebuked them shut up. The freshmen widened their eyes when they heard this. They were all very curious. What was going on in Yunjing Academy? The seniors immediately continued to explain, ¡°As long as you enter the teleportation door and clear a dungeon. ¡°You will be qualified to enter the academy.¡± ¡°Your acceptance letter isn¡¯t everything.¡± ¡°If you want to officially enter the academy.¡± ¡°You boys have a long way to go.¡± After hearing the introduction of the old birds, The students looked at the teleportation gate in the middle of the square. They couldn¡¯t help but exclaim. ¡°As expected of the number one school in the country. This is too cool!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve never heard of entering a dungeon. What am I going to do with all my luggage?¡± ¡°That can¡¯t be, right? Even entering the school requires clearing a dungeon?¡± ¡°Then when can I pass?¡± For a moment, exclamations and complaints rose and fell. Lin Lei didn¡¯t waver in the slightest. Although he was also a little surprised. But since it was the best school in the country, It was not impossible for some relatively rare situations to appear. Lin Lei¡¯s calmness was very outstanding among the new students. Quite a few seniors noticed Lin Lei. But now, they still didn¡¯t know who Lin Lei was. Thus, they only secretly remembered Lin Lei¡¯s existence. They planned to ask around later. What if Lin Lei was a descendant of some family clan? They could also build a good relationship. Lin Lei walked towards the teleportation gate. Since he wanted to enter the academy, he had to pass the instance dungeon. Then Lin Lei had to take a good look. What kind of dungeon was this academy? His hand touched the notification on the portal. Soon, all the dungeons here entered Lin Lei¡¯s mind. Just as Lin Lei had thought. Not all the dungeons here were very difficult. Instead, it went from D-rank to A-rank. It was differentiated by the difficulty level. Therefore, he did not have to worry too much about not being able to pass. Most of the new students could enter Yunjing Academy. They were all around Level 10. For someone like Lin Lei to reach such a high level¡­ It could be said to be very rare. Thus, Lin Lei didn¡¯t take the difficulty of the dungeon to heart. With his current strength. He didn¡¯t need to worry about how difficult the dungeon was. However, the other new students also came forward to check the difficulty of the dungeon. When he saw that the specific details were not stated, The surrounding freshmen looked very hesitant. After all, dungeons with different difficulty levels represented the difficulty of clearing them. However, some low-level Instance Dungeons could also spawn Instance Dungeons where some newbies were at a disadvantage. For example, a mage had managed to obtain a Magic Resistance monster dungeon. Most of the new students did not form a team when they entered Yunjing Academy. They could only choose to go through these dungeons alone. Therefore, to be safe, They basically chose D-rank or C-rank. Because they were already used to fighting in small teams. When he arrived at Yunjing Academy, he was forced to clear the dungeon alone. The new students were also uneasy. He could only choose from the basics. Among the level dungeons they chose¡­ The highest level was only Level 7. However, for solo dungeons, It was already very high. After all, not everyone was like Lin Lei. Only he could solo a very powerful dungeon. Most of them were still used to relying on small teams to fight against monsters. Moreover, their professions were destined to have shortcomings. When everyone was almost done choosing, Lin Lei directly chose [A] class. With his current strength. Ordinary five-man teams would not be able to do anything to him. So these are dungeons that other freshmen find difficult. It wouldn¡¯t cause Lin Lei any trouble. After all, he was already Level 12. After choosing the instance dungeon. Lin Lei directly entered the pocket dimension. He had no intention of forming a team with others. The moment they entered the instance dungeon. Lin Lei received a notification in his mind. [You have arrived at Gloomy Castle.] [Main mission activated. You can check the details on the mission interface.] [Warning: Death penalty in A-level dungeon is -5. Mission failed. Permanent attribute -5] [You have obtained the Return Scroll. Please note that when you are attacked, the Return Scroll will lose its effect.] He saw the system notification. Lin Lei was immediately shocked. At that time, he did not expect to draw this instance dungeon. It was not because this Instance Dungeon was terrifying. It was because the enemies in this instance dungeon were a little troublesome. Enemies in this dungeon will be hidden in the darkness. Even if he had a torch on him. He could not see clearly either. Although Lin Lei was somewhat surprised. However, he did not take it to heart. He decisively continued to check the information. Soon, he saw the new content. [Positive Buff: Sumeru Demon Eyes. It can see through everything and detect traps and mechanisms within a hundred meters, items, and so on¡­] [Negative Buff: Skill release consumes 100% additional mana] Lin Lei had just been thinking about this instance dungeon, which had restricted his skills. In the end, he obtained such a powerful frontal buff. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t afraid at all. No matter how terrifying the monsters in this instance dungeon were¡­ * Lin Lei now had this eye. He did not have to worry about not being able to see the other party. Although, because of the negative effects¡­ He could not continue to use his specialty, Fireball. After all, they were in the castle. It was still a little difficult to release the Fire Rain Spell. Coupled with the need to consume an additional 100% mana. Lin Lei glanced at the target. A very simple sentence was displayed on it. [Killed Dark Soldier Knight Leader] Lin Lei was very confident. His mind was like lightning. It had only been a few seconds since they entered the Instance Dungeon. He had already thought of the future. Lin Lei raised his head to look at his surroundings. He was in a dark corridor. Everything around him seemed blurry. However, his frontal buff had already been activated. The surrounding scenery instantly became much clearer. Footsteps rang out in Lin Lei¡¯s ears, and a figure appeared. With the power of the frontal buff. Lin Lei could clearly see the monsters around him. These were the patrolling knights. The armor on their bodies made cracking sounds. Chapter 40 Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios ¡°Looks like this place is just like its name.¡± ¡°It¡¯s an old castle.¡± Lin Lei roughly guessed where he was. Originally, he thought that the dungeon name was [Gloomy Castle]. And that he might appear outside the ancient castle. Unexpectedly, he appeared in the building. Lin Lei stared at the distant monster. The other party did not notice him. After all, Lin Lei had just entered from the pocket dimension. He decisively found a corner and hid. An enemy he had never seen before. Lin Lei decided to be cautious. He would kill them one by one. But just as Lin Lei was hiding to the side¡­ A group of knights gradually approached from the corner. Lin Lei could clearly hear their footsteps. He listened as the voices drew closer. Lin Lei knew that a fierce battle was unavoidable. He held her breath. Lin Lei waited for the knight to approach. He was about to take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. At this moment. [Sumeru Magic Eye] activated. Lin Lei immediately stopped what he was doing. His gaze focused on the enemy in the distance. [Monster: Dark Soldier Knight (Steel)] [Level: 11] [HP: 50] [Attack Power: 10~15] [Defense: 10] [Skills: Trample, Counter Magic] [Description: A knight trapped in Gloomy Castle. As a loyal knight, he has been wandering around the castle.] Lin Lei saw the skill on the knight¡¯s body. His pupils constricted. Fortunately, he didn¡¯t make a move early. It was all thanks to the activation of the [Sumeru Demon Eye]. Only then did he see that there was a counter magic on the knight¡¯s body. The so-called Anti Magic. It could reflect magic attacks back. If Lin Lei rashly used the Fireball technique he was used to, It would be rebounded by the knight. Before he could kill the other party¡­ He would be killed by the knight first. Lin Lei¡¯s heart stirred. Fortunately, he had obtained the [Sumeru Demon Eyes]. Otherwise, he would attack the knight rashly. Instead, they would be surrounded by these monsters. However, there was still a negative buff on him. The negative buff this time was the most serious one Lin Lei had encountered. Even with the help of the [Sumeru Demon Eye], It didn¡¯t mean that Lin Lei could use magic as he pleased. Instead, it was because there were too many monsters here. In order not to attract the attention of the monsters in the other castles, Lin Lei could only let these knights off for now. These Mystic Soldier Knights. They still patrolled according to a fixed route. But as long as they discovered Lin Lei¡¯s figure¡­ They would continue to track Lin Lei. They would also summon the other patrolling knights in the castle. This truly gave Lin Lei a headache. In order not to fall into a situation where he was surrounded on all sides. Lin Lei decisively avoided this attack. He carefully slipped into the darkness. Fortunately, the equipment on him could also help him hide. This group of patrolling knights did not notice him. After the patrolling knights left a little, Lin Lei decisively advanced. He avoided the patrolling knights along the way. As he walked deeper into the ancient castle. As Lin Lei sped along, the knights in the castle had no idea at all. That in between their patrols¡­ Someone had already broken through all the way into the ancient castle! The entire [Dark Castle] was huge. Lin Lei paced around inside for half a day. He had yet to tell which direction he was in. In addition, he did not want to be caught by the knights. He didn¡¯t even dare to light a torch. They could only travel in the darkness. If not for his high attributes¡­ Coupled with the enhancement of equipment, Lin Lei would have long since run into the patrol team in the darkness. Fortunately, although the ancient castle was huge, Lin Lei had already gradually grasped the pattern. The first place he appeared in the dungeon was the outermost area of the ancient castle. As Lin Lei sneaked in. The number of knights patrolling the castle also increased. It was even more difficult for Lin Lei to avoid them. Fortunately, he was not completely unable to do it. Although there were many knights in front of him, But Lin Lei¡¯s agility was also high enough. Even if these monsters were alarmed for a moment. As long as they didn¡¯t discover Lin Lei¡¯s figure. They would quickly lose their guard. He relied on his extremely high agility and meticulousness. Lin Lei carefully infiltrated the castle. The [Magic Eye of Sumeru] was in the weak light. It was extremely helpful to Lin Lei. No matter what item information there was around him. It was still a trap in the ancient castle. Lin Lei easily dodged them. Originally, if it was someone else who entered this instance dungeon, They could only use the method of charging in. According to the guide that Lin Lei had seen before, If one wanted to clear the [Gloomy Castle]¡­ They usually used brute force. Directly killed the patrolling knights in the ancient castle. After a few more rounds. The leader of the Dark Soldiers would appear. Then, he would reveal an angry expression. Forcefully starting the boss battle. After this round, they could directly leave the dungeon. But Lin Lei was very curious. Why didn¡¯t anyone choose to sneak into the depths of the ancient castle? Perhaps it was the dungeon of the Gloomy Castle. and other copies that mention the castle¡¯s name. It might be the same. He was now bold and skilled. He planned to go all the way to the deepest part. He wanted to see. Was there a hidden dungeon in Gloomy Castle? Otherwise, there was no reason for such a huge ancient castle. However, only the outermost area could be accessed. Moreover, when it came to the castle, the Boss was called the Knight Leader. It also made Lin Lei feel a little strange. Driven by curiosity. Lin Lei decisively chose another path. He carefully avoided the patrolling knights. If he was discovered, his plan would be ruined. He sneaked in without any mishaps. Lin Lei arrived at the innermost circle of the castle. He realized that something was wrong. Because he had been lurking in the darkness. He was already very familiar with the terrain of the ancient castle. However, the inner circle was different. The walls here seemed a little strange. Sure enough, there was a secret hidden here. There was more than one way to go. Lin Lei was overjoyed. He immediately began to check. Due to the inability to use torches. The frequency of knights patrolling nearby also increased. Lin Lei could only carefully use the faint light emitted by the equipment. Inch by inch, he examined the abnormalities on the walls of the ancient castle. His investigation was quickly concluded. ¡°There are actually so many trap holes here.¡± Lin Lei¡¯s positive buff. The Sumeru Demon Eye was in effect. Originally, [Sumeru Demon Eyes] was limited by his vision. He couldn¡¯t discover anything in such a dark place. But when Lin Lei got closer¡­ The [Magic Eye of Sumeru] immediately responded to him. There were densely packed mechanical holes on the wall. He marked out all the dangers. Lin Lei avoided these dangerous traps. and the mechanisms that might cause a commotion. One of them was different. Lin Lei immediately noticed. With a thought, he triggered this mechanism. The hole in the mechanism was instantly opened. It was as if it was luring Lin Lei in. Lin Lei wasn¡¯t frightened by this sudden attack. He took advantage of the gap between patrols. He swooshed in. The moment he entered. The system notification sounded. [Hidden Mission Triggered] [Change of Quest Target] [Quest Objective: Kill the vampire girl] Before Lin Lei could react. The system notification continued to refresh. [Dungeon Difficulty increased] [The current dungeon difficulty is [S] class!]
