Chapter 3575: Reversal

【Transfer complete. You have returned to Reincarnation Paradise.】

In his exclusive room, Su Xiao sat on a single-seat sofa. From the moment he entered the Gloom Continent until now, this was the first time he had completely relaxed. Even in relatively safe environments before, he had maintained sufficient vigilance; the causality of the Dead Silence could not tolerate the slightest carelessness.

Facts proved that Su Xiao's caution was correct. In previous world entries, starting in a prison was disadvantageous enough, but this time, he started in a poisoned and severely injured state. Just after entering that world, before he could even figure out the situation, he had fallen into a coma for a period. Only after waking up with a sufficiently strong physique could he be considered to have officially begun.

The degree of danger in playing against the High Wall City and the Old Monster was no exaggeration to say that death could occur at any moment. That was a place the Old Monster had painstakingly managed for a long time, and the Old Monster's claws and teeth were deeply intertwined within High Wall City.

Speaking of which, he had to thank the Archbishop. In that game, before the Old Monster had even shown his face, he had already displayed his obsession with and hysteria for immortality. In order to eliminate Su Xiao, a large number of death squads gathered. This wasn't just to besiege Su Xiao; it was purely a desire to drag him to hell.

At that time, Su Xiao received an invitation from the Archbishop. The result was that while the Old Monster was indeed hysterical, when facing a former colleague—and one who was also the Chief Hunter—the Old Monster chose to back down, or rather, he lost his nerve.

Facing only the Archbishop, the Old Monster wouldn't have been so timid. The key was that there was also the Saint Priestess. Like the Archbishop, she stood on the side of Su Xiao, who was the Chosen One.

Compared to the Archbishop's restraint, the Saint Priestess was relatively reckless. Before the Old Monster's side could react, all the death squads in High Wall City were killed by the Saint Priestess. This was also why the Saint Priestess had an outbreak of Feral Beast Disease as soon as she arrived at Dead Silence City; she had killed too many in High Wall City beforehand.

Later, when Su Xiao arrived at Dead Silence City, he faced even more dangers. The frequently encountered Sword Saint Team forced him to choose to avoid them most of the time. The battle with the Wolf Knight Captain was extremely tragic, and finally, facing the God of Immortality, it was the first time he had continuously drawn World Thunder.

Cold air surged. Baha opened the life-support device, inside which was Su Xiao's left arm, left shoulder, and a small part of his left torso.

Su Xiao chose to activate the full-team recovery permission. After paying a total of 962 Soul Coins, the recovery began.

Tiny particles of light appeared around him, then spread toward the wounds. The body cells at the damaged parts of his torso were activated. A subtle tingling sensation came, and recovery began in the order of bones, nerves, flesh, and blood. Before long, he could feel his left fingertips, then his left shoulder, and slowly he could feel his upper arm, elbow, and other positions.

When Su Xiao woke up from his nap, he moved his left arm. Although the crystal left arm also had sensation, the original one was better.

"Meow."

Benny's faint cry came. Su Xiao looked over and found Benny lying on the carpet with all four paws spread out. Heaven knows how it managed to lie so flat.

Judging from its expression, Benny seemed to be in a bad mood. This could be guessed from the cat-paw prints on Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's face.

"Were you transferred to drift on the sea again?"

Su Xiao spoke. Hearing this, Benny's eyes immediately welled up with tears, trying hard not to let them overflow. Beside it, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang turned its head away; it was afraid that if it laughed, it would get scratched again.

"Remember to bring the sea drifting device next time..."

Su Xiao hadn't finished speaking when Benny let out a "woomeow" and shed tears. It hadn't just brought the sea drifting device; it had bought the highest-level version. As a result, except for inside High Wall City, the Gloom Continent was all badlands, and the sea was naturally no better. The drifting device hadn't been used for even half a morning before it was lifted into the sky by a giant wave, and it didn't know where it had fallen.

In fact, Benny's encounter was within reason. For every transfer, except for Su Xiao, who was at a specific location, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Benny were all judged based on their ranks as followers or permanent summons.

The so-called rank of follower or permanent summon was Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and the others' positioning in the squad. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang belonged to the support + reconnaissance + infiltration type follower, so its judgment was the highest, and it was always closest to Su Xiao.

To be precise, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, who held the three follower professions of "support + reconnaissance + infiltration," often started in prison with Su Xiao.

Amu and Baha: one was a main tank follower, and the other was an assassination + reconnaissance follower. Among them, Baha, who held two ranks, was at most further from Su Xiao than Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang.

Amu, who served as the main tank—that is, one follower profession—would occasionally have an initial transfer point relatively far from Su Xiao.

Finally, Benny: it held the travel rank. From the name of this rank, one could guess where Benny's initial transfer point was; it was entirely up to heaven's will.

【Hint: You have obtained 1658 Soul Coins.】

This was the share from the Painting World. Every time a world progress ended, Su Xiao could get a share.

The previous few times were only a few hundred Soul Coins; this time it was over a thousand. It wouldn't be long before the income became very considerable.

【Hint: It is detected that the Hunter has taken away the "Dead Silence Origin" of the Gloom Continent. The Gloom Continent has been re-evaluated by the Void Tree.】

【Evaluation result: The Gloom Continent is still locked at the Eighth Tier. Because the Dead Silence Origin has left this world, the overall environment of this world will undergo a positive transformation within the subsequent 30 to 360 natural days.】

【Comprehensive judgment result: This world has long lost its transcendent characteristics. The True God of this world has fallen, and the Abyss Wardens of this world (Wolf Knight Team) have all perished.】

【This world is about to undergo a World Conquest Battle. The participating parties are being notarized.】

【Participating parties in this World Conquest Battle: Reincarnation Paradise, Death Paradise, Sanctuary Paradise.】

The World Conquest Battle of the Gloom Continent was about to begin. Regarding this, Su Xiao had no thoughts. The upcoming world settlement would raise his rank to the Ninth Tier, so he naturally couldn't participate in the Eighth Tier World Conquest Battle.

The Gloom Continent was a world with abundant resources. This World Conquest Battle would definitely be fought to the point of darkness. Therefore, Apocalypse Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, and Watcher Paradise did not "sign up" to participate.

This also meant that he wouldn't encounter contractors from Apocalypse Paradise and Holy Light Paradise, and he couldn't fish for benefits from these wealthy contractors. He couldn't go, and he didn't feel sorry.

The ones he was facing this time were either not very strong poor ghosts or fanatical religious zealots. Killing a dozen of them wouldn't be as profitable as catching one contractor from the Apocalypse Paradise side.

【Hint: Because the Hunter brought the "Dead Silence Origin" out of the Gloom Continent, you have obtained three recommendation spots for this World Conquest Battle.】

【The recommendation spots for the World Conquest Battle can only be gifted and cannot be used to profit privately through these recommendation spots in any way.】

【If a contractor obtains the status of a participant in this World Conquest Battle through the recommendation spot you provided, this participant will obtain additional Reincarnation Paradise Merits when killing enemies, and will obtain higher Merit rewards during settlement.】

【When this World Conquest Battle ends, if your side wins, you will obtain a certain amount of income based on the total Reincarnation Paradise Merits obtained by the three recommended participants (this is a special type of income, which will be randomly drawn from permissions, supply boxes, and rare resources).】

Seeing this hint, Su Xiao felt it was interesting. He didn't expect that he could recommend others to participate in the World Conquest Battle.

This kind of recommendation spot was different from being summoned; there would be additional Reincarnation Paradise Merits to be obtained. In addition, if this World Conquest Battle was won, Su Xiao would obtain corresponding rewards based on the performance of the three recommended people.

Su Xiao thought of Solomon at the first moment. He activated the brand and contacted the other party through the brand contact number. A moment later:

Bai Ye: "Eighth Tier World Conquest Battle · Recommendation Qualification."

Solomon: "Reincarnation Brand · Ninth Tier."

Solomon: "Are you well?"

Bai Ye: "Well. The causality of the Dead Silence has been resolved."

Solomon: "."

Su Xiao closed the contact channel. He wasn't surprised at all that Solomon had promoted to the Ninth Tier. That guy, like him, had suppressed his brand level for a period of time. After thinking about it, he contacted the Undead Girl.

Bai Ye: "Eighth Tier World Conquest Battle · Recommendation Qualification."

Undead Girl: "After the last world ended, I promoted to the Ninth Tier, so don't send this to tempt me. By the way, are you still collecting World Core Fragments?"

Bai Ye: "Collecting. We'll talk later."

Undead Girl: "Hmm."

Ending the text communication, Su Xiao began to think about who he should find. A moment later, he chose to contact Mr. J, Mad Doctor, and the Dean at the same time. Unexpectedly, the three people on the other side temporarily pulled him into an adventure group contact channel called "Behind the Scenes Cooking Shit."

Bai Ye: "Eighth Tier World Conquest Battle · Recommendation Qualification."

Dean: "Uh..."

Mad Doctor: "..."

Mr. J: "Summoned Person."

Mad Doctor: "Summoned Person."

Dean: "Summoned Person."

Chen: "Summoned Person."

Seeing this, Su Xiao directly exited this temporary contact channel. "Behind the Scenes Cooking Shit" had a total of four people, and all of them were summoned to participate in this World Conquest Battle.

This didn't work. Su Xiao chose to contact the three brothers of the National Football Team, and then repeated what had just happened, seeing the three lines of "Summoned Person" sent by the three brothers.

Su Xiao actually didn't know many Eighth Tier contractors on his side. The reason was that in his previous battles, he often carried out indiscriminate clearing. No matter which paradise they were from, if they got in the way, he would clear them together. This led to the fact that after reaching above the Fifth Tier, contractors on his side would receive warning hints after approaching a certain range around him.

Su Xiao had previously been forced to wear the 【Team Slaughterer】 title. This title had no attributes and could only be removed after a few world progresses. This led to him having no title bonus when fighting in those few worlds.

After thinking about it, Su Xiao took out a badge. After activating it, he temporarily entered the adventure group contact channel of the Brigade. Finding someone in the Brigade to participate was still very reliable.

Bai Ye: "Eighth Tier World Conquest Battle · Recommendation Qualification."

Youyouan: "Hello, Gold Master."

Spirit Crow: "Already summoned."

Dance Sister: "Can the spots for the World Conquest Battle be recommended? Long time no see. Also, thanks to Sister Spirit Crow for the gift."

Gulu: "Sign up +1."

Witch: "I'm signing up too~"

Illusionist: "Are you selling the spots?"

Bai Ye: "Not selling, only gifting."

Illusionist: "Understood. I am a technique type + gravity system + soul system. If possible, I hope to participate in this World Conquest Battle. I will try my best to win."

Gulu: "Illusionist, weren't you summoned? If I hadn't just come out of the Gloom Continent, should I have been summoned? I don't seem weak, hmm, probably not weak."

Spirit Crow: "Gulu, you are not weak at all, okay? Last time you beat me to near-death, rode on me, and took out my intestines to play with. I am ranked 67th in the Eighth Tier Arena, so you are not weak at all. Why are you so unconfident?"

Gulu: "It's a long story."

Illusionist: "I also just came out of the Gloom Continent, but my mission's initial transfer point was in the Abyss Battlefield. Until I left, I couldn't get out. Gulu, where were you before?"

Gulu: "Root · Dead Silence City."

Illusionist: "Gulu, I have no prejudice against you personally, you know this, but I want to know, how did you... survive? You are an assassination type. As far as I know, Root · Dead Silence City is particularly unfriendly to assassination types."

Gulu: "Cough~, I survived by my own intelligence."

Witch: "?"

Winnie: "?"

Spirit Crow: "?"

Gulu: "Okay, I survived by hugging a thigh. This thigh spoke at the very top."

Winnie: "Oh, so it was relying on fatherly love, understood, understood."

Gulu: "You TM go die!"

Youyouan: "I also really want to be promoted to the Eighth Tier, but this is too far from me."

Spirit Crow: "By the way, when did Youyouan join the group? Is this a newcomer? Why don't I have any impression?"

Gulu: "Uh~, it seems... not a new member? Forgot."

Dance Sister: "Must be a new member. It was added by Sister Witch in the last few days, right? I don't remember having this person before."

Spirit Crow: "Hmm, that's a new member."

Youyouan: "Sister Spirit Crow, a month ago, I even... treated you to a meal."

Spirit Crow: "Eh~, I seem to, probably, appear to, have some impression? Are you that, that twin-tail?"

Youyouan: "That was a friend I brought along..."

Spirit Crow: "Oh, I know! You are that glasses girl who is very good at talking. I remember you. How could I forget you? Am I that kind of person?"

Youyouan: "That was... another friend I brought."

Spirit Crow: "..."

Dance Sister: "Hahahaha, I laughed until I fainted, but having said that, who on earth... is this."

Youyouan: "(⊙? ⊙)"

The spots were quickly decided. Gulu and Witch were in one team, participating in this World Conquest Battle together. As for Gulu, she had just made a big profit in Dead Silence City, and as an assassination type, she was absolutely in the top tier of the Eighth Tier when fighting contractors of the same rank. Of course, she couldn't encounter Su Xiao or Kain.

As for Witch, her abilities were even more terrifying than assassination types when facing contractors.

As for Illusionist, this Eighth Tier Brigade member was low-key. As a technique type + gravity system + soul system, his poverty was comparable to Solomon and the Undead Girl.

Gulu and Witch were not prepared to act with Illusionist. The reason was that all of Illusionist's abilities did not distinguish between friend and foe. In addition, he was also a gravity system and soul system. A frequent situation was that he would single-handedly challenge a large group of enemy contractors.

【The subsequent notarization of the Gloom Continent has been completed. The world reward settlement is about to begin.】

【It is detected that the Hunter holds the World Seed. Whether to use it for this world settlement? If used, you will obtain a "huge amount" of World Source.】

Su Xiao chose to use it, and the hint appeared.

【You have obtained 68% World Source.】

【World reward settlement begins.】

Native World: Gloom Continent.

World Difficulty: Lv. 49～Lv. 83.

World Source: 187.83%.

Number of completed missions: 7 (Main Mission × 2, Promotion Mission × 5).

Comprehensive Evaluation: S+

Starting to collect World Source...

World Source collection completed, starting to count rewards.

Rewards obtained: 49 True Attribute Points (already included those obtained within the world), Refined Immortal Stone × 24.

Because the comprehensive evaluation has reached the highest S+, you can choose one of the following two rewards.

1. World-class Treasure Chest × 1.

2. World Key × 3 (used to open World-class Treasure Chests).

Hint: You have chosen World-class Treasure Chest × 1.

Hint: True Power · Plunder has been activated. You will obtain 1 to 3 Golden Skill Points.

Hint: You have obtained 3 Golden Skill Points (determined by the comprehensive evaluation).

The comprehensive evaluation is S+, the Hunter's current brand level is Lv. 80, brand level + 5 (Native World Tier × Number of completed missions + Comprehensive Evaluation - Mission completion time).

Hint: This is a promotion world, and the Hunter's brand has not yet promoted to the Ninth Tier, so it will not bring about an increase in brand level. The current brand level is Lv. 80.

Settlement completed, rewards have been stored in the Hunter's brand.

【You have completed the promotion assessment.】

【You have promoted to the Ninth Tier.】

【Corresponding Hunter permissions have been activated.】

【Your follower slot + 1.】

【Public Trading Area · Great Gathering Place will be opened for you. You can trade with contractors, Battle Angels, Death Rangers, Executioners, Guardians, Pioneers, etc., from Apocalypse Paradise, Holy Light Paradise, Death Paradise, Sanctuary Paradise, and Watcher Paradise in the "Great Gathering Place" (the currency used is Soul Coins).】

【Hint: Although the Great Gathering Place is a public trading area, some unique materials of your own faction are in a non-tradable state.】

Having obtained a follower slot, Su Xiao changed Benny from a permanent summon mark to a follower brand. In this way, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Benny were all followers.

【Hint: The shared ability of the SSS-level adventure group has been triggered. Every time a world settlement occurs, corresponding team skill points will be obtained based on the comprehensive evaluation obtained by the leader.】

【This comprehensive evaluation is S+, you have obtained 30 team skill points.】

【Team Skill, Hunting Group (Passive Lv. 4): During world settlement, you can increase your own body attribute by 1 point (randomly increased in one of the six attributes: Agility, Intelligence, Stamina, Charisma, Luck, Willpower).】

【The beneficiaries of this skill are: Hunter himself, Xiang Bubu Teni, Amu, Baha, Benny.】

With the appearance of this hint, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Benny all gathered around. It was time for the happy luck competition again. Every time it reached this point, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang and Benny were particularly active; their luck was the best.

【Hint: Your Luck attribute + 1 point.】

Seeing this hint, Su Xiao, who was originally prepared to take out all the treasure chests to open, decided to slow down for a while and wait until his luck was stable before opening them. There were quite a few treasure chests obtained this time, and he had to strive to maximize the benefits.

A total of 31 team skill points, Su Xiao first upgraded "Hunting Group" to Lv. 5. This ability was good in every way, but it was a pity that it could only be upgraded by 1 level per world progress.

Just after upgrading the "Hunting Group" ability, Su Xiao found that this ability could actually be upgraded. He tried to continue upgrading it by 2 levels, and after it reached Lv. 7, this ability became unselectable. It seemed that the promotion to the Ninth Tier and the simultaneous upgrade of the adventure group's rank brought about this effect.

"Hunting Group (Passive Lv. 7): During world settlement, you can increase your own body attribute by 1 to 3 points (randomly increased in one of the six attributes: Strength, Agility, Intelligence, Stamina, Charisma, Luck, Willpower)."

For the remaining 28 team skill points, Su Xiao used them to upgrade the team skill · Vitality Awakening, upgrading it to Lv. 49.

After Su Xiao left the exclusive room, he headed straight for Reed's forge. Half an hour later, he arrived in front of the forge.

Just as Su Xiao arrived, the forge door was about to close, but Su Xiao's hand was faster.

Boom!

Su Xiao grabbed the edge of the nearly 10-centimeter-thick black metal door with one hand. He looked into the door crack and saw Reed, whose eye corners were twitching twice.

Crack, crack, crack~

Su Xiao used his strength to pull the door crack open a bit, then threw the wooden box containing the 【Hunter's Night】 long leather coat inside, and finally let go. The metal door closed with a bang. A few seconds later, a full-voiced "WTF" came from inside.

When Reed kicked the door open from the inside, Su Xiao's figure was already gone from outside the door. This made Wood, who was holding the strip-shaped long leather coat, couldn't help but greet him elegantly and gently, but he still came to the workbench, put the long leather coat on it, and began to think. He didn't know if he was thinking about how to repair it or thinking about life. If it was the latter, then it must be, who am I? Where is this? Am I not a blacksmith?

Inside the attribute enhancement hall.

The warehouse door behind Su Xiao closed, and he activated the attribute enhancement warehouse.

【Welcome to use Attribute Enhancement Warehouse No. 1319.】

【Current available True Attribute Points: 49 points.】

The True Attribute Points obtained this time were many, but before upgrading, Su Xiao had two more things to do. He pressed one hand on the identification device in front and activated the attribute promotion permission.

【Your Willpower attribute will be promoted to True Willpower attribute. During this period, you will enter an unconscious state.】

Just as this hint appeared, Su Xiao's vision gradually fell into darkness. It seemed like a few seconds had passed, and it seemed like a long time had passed. His eyes opened suddenly. After a few seconds, he carefully perceived the changes in himself.

【True Willpower attribute has reached 20 points naked. You can choose one of the following rewards.】

A. Tenacious Will: Willpower + 2 points.

B. Pain Tolerance: Pain sensation reduced by 10%, pain tolerance slightly increased.

C. Standing Tall: When health is above 8.5%, you will not enter a near-death state.

For the three rewards, Su Xiao chose option A without hesitation. The main reason was that the remaining two were useless. He was already used to fighting, and his tolerance for pain was already strong enough.

Although the Black King Armguard hadn't finished its promotion, he could already feel the familiarity of being able to exempt from the near-death state returning. So, lowering the near-death line was a weakening for him.

【True Willpower attribute has reached 50 points naked. You can choose one of the following rewards.】

A. Will: Willpower + 3 points.

B. Fighting Braver: After enduring pain multiple times, you will secrete a large amount of variant adrenaline, allowing you to ignore physical pain and enter a highly excited state.

C. Angry Blood · Burning (Rare Reward): When your health is below 35%, you can enter this state. While judgment is significantly reduced, you will continuously obtain increasing movement speed, attack speed, and comprehensive attack intensity with the power of angry will.

Su Xiao's brows furrowed. What kind of attribute rewards were these? He decisively chose reward A. It wasn't that he was stacking the Willpower attribute, but that the remaining two rewards were truly garbage, or rather, it wasn't that the bonuses were garbage, but that they were too suitable for him.

This made Su Xiao couldn't help but wonder how the attribute rewards were determined. Could it be random? Or was it randomly drawn based on a large classification of melee types?

Su Xiao suspected the latter. Although these bonuses were garbage for him, they were god-tier skills for some melee types, especially Angry Blood Burning (Rare Reward), which perfectly matched Berserker-type professions. It was no exaggeration to say that it was an extra talent ability.

【True Willpower attribute has reached 99 points naked. You can choose one of the following rewards.】

A. Will Amplification: Willpower + 5 points.

B. Combat Intuition: Perception capture speed increased by 20%, probabilistic prediction of incoming attacks.

C. Leader: Your firm will power can make the intelligent creatures under your command be influenced, more convinced of you, reduce the defection rate by 10%, and increase morale by 10%.

This time, all three rewards were good. Su Xiao chose reward B. The reason was that although reward C was good, the bonus was not high enough.

【True Willpower attribute has reached 150 points naked. You can choose one of the following rewards.】

A. Strengthened Will: Willpower + 10 points.

B. Death Resistance: Delay the time you enter the near-death state (delayed by 15 to 30 seconds, depending on the Stamina attribute).

C. Commander (Exclusive Reward): Because Charisma attribute - 15 points, you have an aura that makes people tremble. When you command chaotic or evil faction units, the defection probability of such units is reduced by 25%, temporary loyalty is increased by 50%, conviction is increased by 80%, and morale is increased by 30%.

This time it was not easy to choose. Su Xiao thought for a moment and decided to choose reward C, Commander. Having an exclusive reward was a good luck in itself, and he did often command people from the evil faction.

This temporary loyalty was very interesting. In layman's terms, it was being scared into allegiance on the spot, and then the loyalty gradually decreased over time. For Su Xiao, these were not problems. Once on the pirate ship, they wanted to leave? In the faction he commanded, this kind of thing had never happened.

【True Willpower attribute has reached 200 points naked. You can choose one of the following rewards.】

A. Iron Will: Willpower + 15 points.

B. Resistance: The duration of charm, mental induction, consciousness bewitchment, and other effects suffered is reduced by 35%.

C. Fearless Shadow (Special Reward): Completely exempt from "Will Invasion" caused by Original Sin items and Abyss creatures.

Reward B was useless to Su Xiao. Blade Master completely immunized against such control, so it was excluded first. For the remaining two, Su Xiao considered it and decided to choose reward C.

Although he didn't know what "Will Invasion" was, in his view, there were still many opportunities to improve the Willpower attribute in the future, and the opportunity to completely exempt from the "Will Invasion" effect might only be this once.

No more attribute rewards appeared, which meant that Su Xiao's Willpower attribute had not reached 300 points. He took out a 【Dark Stone】, which could improve all main attributes, that is, improve his Strength, Agility, Intelligence, and Stamina attributes.

After using the 【Dark Stone】, Su Xiao immediately activated the attribute enhancement warehouse. This was an experience he had explored all along. When using such improvement props instead of improvement potions, activating the attribute enhancement warehouse to improve body attributes during the period could allow such permanent improvement props to exert better effects.

49 True Attribute Points, Su Xiao's allocation method was: Strength + 12, Agility + 12, Stamina + 12, Intelligence + 13.

Hum~

The attribute enhancement warehouse began to operate. Su Xiao sat on the ground. When the attribute enhancement warehouse stopped operating, he checked his own data.

True Strength: 276 points

True Agility: 276 points

True Stamina: 276 points

True Intelligence: 276 points

Charisma: -15 points

Luck: 56 points

Soul Strength: 650 points

True Willpower: 210 points

Su Xiao's body attributes had reached a very high level. The effect of 【Dark Stone】 on him was not too good, but it was a not-so-small improvement, with a total increase of 3 body attributes.

Leaving the attribute enhancement hall, Su Xiao returned to the exclusive room. When he pushed the door and entered, he saw Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Benny all sticking to the wall in a handstand, and according to the level of Strength attribute, they were using their feet, claws, and hind legs to step on different weights.

"..."

Su Xiao's footsteps stopped. He didn't understand what Xiang Bubu, Amu, and the others were doing.

"Boss, we are... competing, it's about... those 100 Soul Coins."

Baha spoke. Hearing this, Su Xiao ignored the four of them. Every time a world progress ended, Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, Baha, and Benny had a certain share of Soul Coins as pocket money.

As a result, this time there were 100 extra Soul Coins distributed to the four of them. In the past, it was an equal split, but this time Baha came up with a bad idea. Anyway, they were idle, so they had a handstand weight-bearing competition. Whoever won got it.

Looking at Benny's two trembling little hind legs, Baha, who came up with the bad idea, was probably in danger. Miss Benny was the one in charge of the money, and the food expenses were managed by her. If she severely hurt her self-esteem, Baha would probably only be able to eat boiled slippers in the future.

Clang, clang, clang, three sounds. Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang, Amu, and Baha's weights all fell to the ground. Benny won.

From the fact that Benny's stubborn little hind legs were still trembling after removing the weights, if Xiang Bubu and the others had been a few seconds slower, they would have won narrowly. In the end, the three of them each got 33 Soul Coins. Benny, who only kept 1 Soul Coin, moved its cat-steps, happily shook its tail, and went to take a bath. Just after entering the bathroom, Benny sat on the ground with tears in its eyes. Its hind legs were so sore.

Su Xiao looked at Benny, who was sitting behind the frosted glass. He didn't need to think to know that the handstand hind leg weight-bearing competition must have been Baha's bad idea.

"Amu."

"Moo?"

Amu's response carried a bit of tremor. When it saw Su Xiao walking toward the alchemy laboratory, Amu's feet softened, and it sat on the ground, then ran out.

Three hours later, the major repair... cough, the deep treatment of the surgery was completed. Su Xiao handed a large lunch box half a meter long and 20 centimeters high to Amu.

Amu, who was still trembling, was eating the roasted lamb chops ordered from Xia's restaurant while doubting its cow life. Roasted lamb chops are really delicious VS major repair is really painful, the two moods alternated, and finally, the meal resolved the painful mood after the major repair.

Su Xiao came to the planting area. He inserted the 30-plus World Core (fragments) obtained from the trade into the soil around the Black Maple Tree, and then took out four 【Origin Stone · World (Fragment)】, hanging them around the Black Maple Tree with thin ropes.

Previously in Dead Silence City, he discovered that the God Sect had placed the 【Origin Stone · World (Fragment)】 inside the mother tree of the Black Maple Tree, and this behavior would not cause damage or reduction to the 【Origin Stone · World (Fragment)】.

Thinking about it, the unique fluctuations emitted by the 【Origin Stone · World (Fragment)】 should be able to assist the growth of the Black Maple Tree, or improve the quality of the Black Maple Tree's output. If it was the latter, then it was a huge profit.

Sitting under the Black Maple Tree, Su Xiao took out an item, which was the 【Basic Passive Skill Scroll Treasure Chest】. This thing would definitely draw a highest-potential basic ability that he hadn't mastered yet.

There were a total of seven "Basic Passives," corresponding to Strength attribute, Agility attribute, Stamina attribute, Intelligence attribute, Charisma attribute, Perception attribute, and Soul attribute.

Su Xiao had already mastered four, which meant that this 【Basic Passive Skill Scroll Treasure Chest】 would only draw the highest-potential Strength, Agility, or Charisma basic ability.

【You have opened the Basic Passive Skill Scroll Treasure Chest.】

【You have obtained Basic Passive · Secret Technique.】

【Basic Passive · Secret Technique, Lv. 1.】

Type: Basic · Passive Scroll.

Pre-requirement: Charisma attribute 5 points.

Skill effect: Follower slot + 2, permanent summon slot + 5, the comprehensive bonus rate of Charisma attribute to subordinates' summons is increased from a constant 1.0% to 1.25%, and every time this skill is upgraded, this characteristic will be improved (this characteristic can only be improved through the highest-potential Charisma · Basic Passive).

Seeing that the highest-potential · Basic Passive of the Charisma characteristic was opened, Su Xiao was not disappointed, but rather had some expectations. The reason was the 【Ancient Scroll】 obtained before.

【Ancient Scroll】

Origin: Gloom Continent · Soul Library · Top Floor.

Quality: Consumable/Scroll.

Durability: 1/3 (cannot be restored in any way).

Usage pre-requirement: Soul energy tier (8).

Equipment effect: Ancient Miracle (Active), need to first select a skill scroll as the carrier of this scroll. After activating this scroll, it will perform a reverse twist on the attached skill scroll.

Hint: During the reverse twist process, the user needs to provide a large amount of high-tier energy. The tier of this energy will determine the degree, characteristics, and upper limit of the reverse twist.

Introduction: The preciousness of this item depends on the user's vision and wisdom.

Su Xiao wanted to know, if high-tier energy was guaranteed to be sufficient, then after using the 【Ancient Scroll】 on the "Basic Passive · Secret Technique" scroll, could it twist out a unique basic passive ability that could only be mastered with a negative Charisma attribute? In short, Negative Charisma · Basic Passive. ===== CHAPTER 3576 =====
