Chapter 20

~7 min read 1,207 words

Jiang Chen looked at the four Bronze Equipment weapons that appeared before him, feeling somewhat surprised.

I didn't expect these three people to actually be equipped with something of considerable value.

Bronze-grade weapon, the weapon shimmered with a cyan-white light, somewhat similar to the sheen on the Skeleton Warrior's body.

Lin Caier said, "These weapons were all obtained from the Zul Orc Legion Instance."

"Zul Orc Legion Instance?"

Jiang Chen was somewhat doubtful; he had never heard of this instance before.

Lin Caier saw that Jiang Chen didn't understand, and thought for a moment.

"The Zul Orc Legion Instance is a level-20 instance outside Baiyun City, and these pieces of equipment dropped from there."

Jiang Chen understood; he was a newcomer who had just completed his job change, and his knowledge was quite limited.

These four Bronze-level Equipment were of little use to him; he could only sell them at the Profession Hall.

He directly put away the four bronze equipment, and Lin Caier showed no reaction.

Besides, there were some materials left, such as ferocious beast hide, beast bones, and herbs; Jiang Chen collected them all into his pack.

When he left the city, he had checked the purchase prices of these items at the Profession Hall; they could all be sold for money.

After putting away the weapons, equipment, and materials, there was still something on the ground; Jiang Chen took a close look.

"Beginner Skill Scroll"

"Introduction: can obtain skills below level 20, possibly even skills already learned."

Skill Scroll? Beginner-level?

Such an item is not cheap; even the cheapest is worth 100,000 gold coins, an unexpected gain.

He took the scroll in his hand, examined it carefully, and for a moment didn't know what to do with it.

Lin Caier seemed to see his doubt: "You haven't used a Beginner Skill Scroll yet, have you?"

」

Jiang Chen nodded slightly; he had only changed jobs a few days ago...

Lin Caier smiled: "You can try using it; although there's a chance you'll get a skill you already know, you might also learn a new one."

But seeing Jiang Chen's expression, Lin Caier was somewhat surprised!

"No, you wouldn't be thinking of selling it for money, would you? Surely you're not that short on cash?"

"It's just a Beginner Skill Scroll, not an advanced one; why not use it yourself instead of selling it for a few coins?"

Lin Caier's family background is obviously very wealthy; in her view, 100,000 gold coins isn't a big sum!

Jiang Chen didn't catch the meaning of her words, and still gripped the scroll tightly in his hand.

Lin Caier asked again, "How? You don't not know how to use it, do you?"

Jiang Chen looked at her and shook his head.

"It's very simple; you just hold the scroll and speak." Lin Caier continued.

"Just speak?" Jiang Chen was somewhat doubtful.

Seeing his expression, Lin Caier couldn't help but laugh: "Exactly, your voice is too soft; you need to speak louder."

Jiang Chen didn't bother to verify the truth of her words; he tried following her instructions once.

"Use!"

As soon as the words fell, the scroll showed no reaction.

Looking at Jiang Chen's appearance, Lin Caier couldn't help but ask, "Why aren't you speaking? Did you realize I was right?"

She wore a mischievous look as she gazed at the somewhat doubtful Jiang Chen, not knowing what he was thinking...

But Jiang Chen just stood there without saying a word.

He also realized in his heart that Lin Caier was teasing him, and he felt foolish for having trusted her so much.

Having changed his approach, Jiang Chen already understood everything in his heart, and directly

He attempted to infuse his own spiritual power into the scroll.

Suddenly the beginner scroll burst forth with scorching light, enveloping Jiang Chen entirely.

Lin Caier looked at Jiang Chen with a disappointed expression: "You found me out."

She had originally intended to tease Jiang Chen, but instead he found the correct way to use it.

Watching the skill scroll turn into a light orb that enveloped Jiang Chen, Lin Caier couldn't help but sigh.

"Skill acquired: Corpse Explosion Technique"

"Corpse Explosion Technique LV1: detonate corpses, dealing damage equal to ten percent of the corpse's HP to enemies within a one-meter radius."

Jiang Chen acquired a new skill, and this scroll was not wasted.

At first glance, this skill seems to have nothing remarkable about it.

The range is only one meter; given Jiang Chen's current strength, what can one meter do?

Although a one-meter range seems small, Jiang Chen nevertheless discerned different information from the skill's description.

This is actually a group attack skill; if it were his Skeleton Warriors, having them hack at enemies one by one would be terribly troublesome.

Moreover, even elites, after death, their corpses continuously emit energy.

This is indeed a range attack! As long as one enemy is killed, you can detonate that corpse, dealing damage to enemies within the skill's range.

If more enemies are killed, you can detonate more corpses, creating a chain reaction.

As long as his spiritual power is not exhausted, this skill can be continuously released, dealing massive AOE damage!

Furthermore, with his talent skill, the attack range will reach twenty meters, and the damage will reach two hundred percent!

This is another divine skill!

As long as it is used properly, this skill can almost be called

Invincible!

The light gradually faded, Lin Caier blinked her big eyes, full of expectation as she asked, "How was it? Did you learn any new skills?"

"I learned." Jiang Chen replied expressionlessly.

Lin Caier instantly beamed with joy, "Your voice sounds great, why don't you like to talk?"

Jiang Chen looked at her; this girl seemed somewhat different from those other girls.

She is very lively and also loves to play.

Your voice is also very pleasant.

Jiang Chen rarely praises others.

He is not unable to communicate; he simply does not want to say too many useless words.

When he previously lived together with his family, Jiang Chen also loved to laugh, enjoyed speaking, and was very lively...

Lin Caier appeared very delighted, giggling, "Thank you for the praise; hearing your praise, this young lady's mood is very happy."

"Considering you saved this young lady and praised her, I'll give you this thing."

Before her words even finished, Lin Caier took out a box and directly shoved it into Jiang Chen's hand.

"Intermediate Skill Scroll"

"Description: Can comprehend spells between level 40 and 70, with a certain chance to obtain already comprehended spells."

In the Profession Hall, the price of an intermediate spell scroll can reach tens of millions of gold coins, almost a hundred times that of an elementary spell scroll.

The cost is high, its value immense.

At least for Jiang Chen now, it's an astronomical figure!

Lin Caier had said before that the three professionals Jiang Chen had just killed were pursuing her relentlessly for this intermediate skill scroll...

But now she actually gave such a precious item to him suddenly.

Jiang Chen stared, feeling somewhat incredulous, this girl this

so generous?

He raised his eyes, and happened to meet Lin Caier's sparkling, blinking big eyes...
