Chapter 23

"Classmate Yuwen Hao is actually fine. Although Li Yao clearing the Nightmare-level makes his Master-level clear a joke and he paid a lot of costs, he is the young master of the Classmate Yuwen family after all, so he doesn't need anyone's pity."

"Then who is it?"

"Goddess Jiang Goddess Jiang Ningyu!"

"Li Yao's ex-girlfriend?"

"Exactly! Look at her face right now, she was such a pretty girl."

"Pfft."

Qin Qin Yue covered her mouth, unable to hide her smile.

She had heard a lot about Goddess Jiang Goddess Jiang Ningyu and Li Yao.

She really didn't like that girl.

It wasn't because the other girl was pretty.

It was because she clearly didn't like Li Yao, yet she accepted so many gifts from him.

The other followers also couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Haha, I can't take it, let me laugh for a while!"

"Nightmare-level abyss, let alone peers, how many people in the whole country can solo a Nightmare-level abyss? Such a boyfriend, a boyfriend who gave her his heart and soul, and she just threw him away?"

"Pah! You're pitying her? She was the one who proposed breaking up when she saw Young Master Li changed to a Summoner. Who can she blame?"

"Haha, Miss, look, she looks so weird right now."

"I saw it too."

"She looks like a dog."

"Hey, hey, you two, don't talk about others behind their backs," Qin Qin Yue warned.

At this moment, Goddess Jiang Goddess Jiang Ningyu didn't know that people were watching her make a fool of herself.

Even if she knew, she wouldn't be in the mood to care.

Her pretty face had completely lost its color, and even though Classmate Yuwen Hao was cursing loudly beside her, she couldn't hear a word.

Li Yao... he cleared the Nightmare-level difficulty?

How is that possible? He's a Summoner!

Why... why did he have to change to a Summoner to deceive me?

Goddess Jiang Goddess Jiang Ningyu was unwilling to accept it.

She even threw the fact that she had set Li Yao up in the dungeon to the back of her mind.

Li Yao's figure gradually magnified in her mind; when she closed her eyes, all she saw was Li Yao.

A sense of regret surged into her heart like a tide.

"Li Yao, why did you treat me like this?"

Li Yao was completely unaware of the situation outside.

At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged in front of the dungeon vortex, looking at his rewards.

The Goblin King's loot chest, level up by 1, first-clear gift pack, and title reward.

So satisfying!

As expected of a Nightmare-level dungeon.

The level increase was applied directly to Li Yao.

His level increased from 14 (93%) to 15 (93%), just one step away from level 16.

At the same time, the hedge fund reward also fell into Li Yao's bag.

Unfortunately, even the Goblin King didn't drop gold coins.

He didn't know how high the intensity had to be to get gold coins as mentioned in the acquisition method.

Li Yao didn't pay too much attention to it; what should come would come. His gaze turned to the three treasure chests.

First, the Goblin King's loot.

Light flickered, and there was only one item in the chest.

Li Yao touched his face.

"Am I a bit unlucky?"

[King's Cloak (Accessory)]

[Quality: Platinum]

[Equipment Requirement: Level 15]

[Equipment Attribute 1: Spirit +120, Stamina +40]

[Equipment Attribute 2: Shelter (Active): Designate a target to attach an energy shield to them, reducing damage by 70%, with a total damage reduction value, duration 60 seconds, cooldown 60 seconds.]

[Equipment Attribute 3: King's Might (Passive): King of a clan, no one can intimidate you, duration of control effects reduced by 50%.]

[Royal Set Part: 1/3]

[Durability: 200/200]

"Hiss," Li Yao gasped.

Platinum-grade equipment, and it's a set part!

This isn't bad luck at all; it's hitting the jackpot!

"Is this Shelter the same skill the Goblin King used?"

Li Yao had suffered from this, knowing how unsolvable this skill was. Looking at the skill description, it was even stronger than the power the Goblin King displayed.

A normal level 20 Knight-class professional, with full stamina points and various gear, would only have about ten thousand HP; having over twenty thousand was rare.

This was equivalent to Li Yao gaining the HP of a top-tier Knight-class professional for free.

Moreover, this twenty thousand HP still needed to be reduced by 70% damage.

"It's basically a turtle shell!"

Li Yao sighed.

At the current stage, breaking this turtle shell was as hard as ascending to heaven!

When he added it to the Void Mantis, Li Yao couldn't even imagine how satisfying it would be!

"Hm? It's actually a set part."

Li Yao thought of the King's Scepter from the first-kill reward and quickly took it out of his storage ring.

[King's Scepter (Weapon)]

[Quality: Platinum]

[Equipment Requirement: Level 15, Spirit 200]

[Equipment Attribute 1: Designated attribute +200, designated cooldown 24 hours.]

[Equipment Attribute 2: King's Personal Guard (Active): Select four summoned creatures, main attribute increased by wearer's level × 5, duration 20 seconds, cooldown 40 seconds.]

[Equipment Attribute 3: King's Might (Passive): King of a clan, no one can intimidate you, duration of control effects reduced by 50%.]

[Royal Set Part: 1/3]

[Durability: 200/200]

The attributes weren't as stunning as the King's Cloak.

The only thing that moved Li Yao was that it also came with the King's Might effect.

However, the two 50% effects weren't added directly, but multiplied.

For example, a 10-second control time.

First reduced by 50% to 5 seconds, then reduced by 50% again to 2.5 seconds.

Based on this attribute alone, it could definitely be called Platinum-grade equipment, not to mention it was a [Royal] set part.

Li Yao was satisfied.

Taking advantage of his 'good start', he opened the first-clear gift pack directly.

[Opening first-clear gift pack (Goblin Nest Nightmare-level), rewards adapted to professional level!]

[Adapting...]

[Adaptation successful!]

[Congratulations, you have obtained Blue Bird Summoning Skill (S)]

"Oh?"
