Chapter 25

"Stuffy, your skill is way too fierce!"

Ye Xingtong’s eyes shone. With the "Frenzy State" super-buff, her skills were like a sniper rifle—one skill took out a whole group of monsters.

Added to the secret realm’s experience bonus, her level would definitely skyrocket tonight.

"Big sister loves you to death!"

After saying this, she wanted to give Luo Chenyu a big hug.

Luo Chenyu, however, warned her at that moment: "Monsters are coming!"

Just look.

The soil beneath the "bald" tree in front churned, and pale skeletons crawled out from the ground. Ghostly green soul-fire flickered in their eyes, and they held large axes in their hands.

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

Luo Chenyu immediately used Eye of Insight to check the skeletons' attributes.

[Gloomy Skeleton · Great Axe Warrior]

Grade: Difficult

Level: LV.9

HP: 625

Mana: 150

Strength: 55; Constitution: 48; Agility: 40; Spirit: 20

Skills: Phantom Great Axe Slash, Enhanced Cleave, Skeleton Body!

Strength: First Order

The four-dimensional attributes looked very high, even approaching [Abyssal Envoy · Aike].

But after seeing these attributes, Luo Chenyu didn't care at all; they couldn't break his shield at all!

"Stuffy, you tank it, let big sister try her skills!"

Ye Xingtong’s words made Luo Chenyu, who was just about to start, hesitate for a moment, then he nodded and said: "Alright, it's up to you!"

He also wanted to see the power of an S-rank hidden profession, the Rage Flame Mage.

The next moment.

Luo Chenyu rushed up fiercely.

The steel sword slashed hard at the Gloomy Skeleton’s forehead.

Clang!

The steel sword was blocked by the Gloomy Skeleton’s great axe, and a harsh sound of metal clashing rang out.

Luo Chenyu missed with his sword, so he lifted his foot and kicked the Gloomy Skeleton’s abdomen hard.

Boom!

The Gloomy Skeleton was caught off guard and kicked flying.

A chunk of HP dropped from above its head.

-78!

The damage wasn't high, but Luo Chenyu was very happy; his normal attacks were finally having an effect.

Just as Luo Chenyu was enjoying it and wanted to continue attacking.

A huge fireball streaked past him, directly blasting the Gloomy Skeleton that had just climbed up, and sparks flew in an instant.

-576!

A huge damage number floated up, and the Gloomy Skeleton’s soul-fire extinguished instantly.

"Ding, your team killed a level 9 difficult monster [Gloomy Skeleton · Great Axe Warrior], you gained 138 experience points, secret realm progress +1!"

Is this the strength of an S-rank hidden profession?

So strong!

Envy appeared in Luo Chenyu’s eyes.

"Woo~" Ye Xingtong’s face was full of frustration, "The attributes are too high, I can't one-shot it at all!"

Luo Chenyu: "..."

Something others couldn't envy enough, and this young lady was actually still frustrated.

Truly, the well-fed don't know the hunger of the starving.

However... this experience really is generous!

"Little Ye, your level is too low, let big brother go first!"

With such generous experience, Luo Chenyu didn't want to waste time.

"Tch, no sense of seniority, I'm three days older than you, I'm the big sister, and also... call me Tongtong!"

Ye Xingtong looked at Luo Chenyu with dissatisfaction.

"..."

Luo Chenyu was speechless for a moment. His soul was that of a twenty-five-year-old straight man, but his real body was indeed three days younger than Ye Xingtong.

"Little Brother Yu, big sister is waiting for you to show off your power!"

Ye Xingtong put on a charming expression, looking seductive.

A cold school beauty?

Sure enough, people have two sides.

He didn't talk nonsense, walking with his head held high through the gloomy forest of strange trees.

After walking a few steps, a "tap-tap-tap" sound came from the forest.

Seven Gloomy Skeletons rushed out from the darkness, all holding great axes in their hands, screeching and roaring.

"Little... Tongtong, watch closely, big brother will show you what real output is!"

Ye Xingtong: "..."

A defensive warrior talking about output to a violent fire mage like her?

The next second!

"Hiss!"

What did she see?

In just an instant, a shield flickered on Luo Chenyu, mysterious and unfathomable energy flashed and vanished, and the seven Gloomy Skeletons in front of them instantly turned into a pile of debris.

That terrifying damage number stunned her.

"5... 5000?!!"

This is damage dealt by a mere level 5 defensive warrior?

You call this a defensive warrior?

Such a violent skill, no chanting needed, no movement needed...

Even after the shield disappeared, she heard the prompt of the shield refreshing in her ears.

Ye Xingtong was numb.

No wonder this guy could get an SSSS rating; the shield can explode, it's too brutal.

Luo Chenyu smiled slightly, raised his hand to pick up the drops in front of him, and said: "Standard operation, it's your luck that's outrageous; you got a piece of equipment after only a few monsters!"

Immediately, Luo Chenyu handed the equipment in his hand to Ye Xingtong beside him.

A level 5 E-grade bracer for mages, with attributes much higher than those bought at the Longshan Trading House.

The most important thing was that it had a high-tier attribute: Spell Penetration +1%!

The attribute most needed by mage output professions!

"Continue!"

Luo Chenyu looked excitedly toward the gloomy place deep in the monster forest, "Don't stray too far from me later!"

Having seen the experience points of the Gloomy Skeletons, he decided to return to his old trade.

Driving!

Ye Xingtong nodded numbly; she still hadn't recovered from Luo Chenyu’s explosive performance.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

As the "convoys" disappeared one after another, a soft white light flashed on Ye Xingtong.

She had leveled up under the generous experience!

She reached level 4!

Just one more level, and she would shed the title of novice and begin to reveal her professional characteristics.

Along the way.

Ye Xingtong had gone from numb to excited.

Let her be a salted fish; anyway, only Luo Chenyu saw it, so she didn't mind!

"Brother Yu, you're amazing!"

Deep in the night, deep in the small forest.

When the two walked out of the small forest, more than an hour had passed.

A blood-red river appeared before their eyes.

The eerie thing was that the blood-colored river was surging, yet it made no sound at all.

"Roar!!"

In the midst of their confusion, a terrifying roar echoed across the silent riverbank.
