On the other side, Wu Shaochen scratched his head as he looked at the unfamiliar place in front of him. He had used a random teleportation scroll and ended up here without knowing where it was. Opening the map, he found the current location to be pitch black, and he had to zoom out several times to see Jinling City. A rough estimate revealed that he was several hundred kilometers away from Jinling City.
"This scroll is so unpredictable! It teleported me hundreds of kilometers away. Luckily, I bought plenty of return scrolls before, or I would have been in trouble," Wu Shaochen muttered to himself.
In that situation just now, he could only rely on the teleportation scroll. The attackers had all exceeded a thousand in attack power, breaking through his defense. It seemed like he needed to find more survival skills.
"Fortunately, I got lucky with this good item," Wu Shaochen smiled as he looked at the Linlang Necklace he was wearing.
[Linlang Necklace]Gold Grade: Physical Attack +200, Critical Rate +15%, Luck +8, Additional Attributes: Strength +25, Agility +25, Constitution +25, Additional Skill: Blink: Teleports to a designated location within a maximum distance of 20 meters, cooldown time of 5 minutes. Required for wearing: Physical class.
If it weren't for this necklace, he wouldn't have been able to kill that fool from Aoshi Tianxia. Looking at the two equipment pieces that dropped from Aoshi Tianxia, Wu Shaochen's mouth twitched. It seemed like my jinxed mouth was quite effective this time. I got two silver-grade equipment pieces from Aoshi Tianxia, and one of them was the [Tiger Head Helmet] that I had put up for auction. I casually mentioned that if Aoshi Tianxia bought it, it would drop again and I could sell it once more. I didn't expect it to actually drop.
"Oh, god of wealth," Wu Shaochen sighed, then turned his attention to the other silver-grade equipment piece that caught his eye. It was a silver ring, and coincidentally, he only had one Tiger Head Ring that was bronze. Everything else he had was silver or above. Aoshi Tianxia really knows how to win my heart, what a good person!
[Green Pattern Ring]Silver Grade: +600 HP, +160 Physical Attack, -5% Cooldown Reduction, Additional Attributes: Strength +17, Constitution +18, Agility +17, Required for wearing: Physical class.
He put on the ring, replacing the only bronze ring, the [Tiger Head Ring], that he had. The increase in strength wasn't significant because both were accessories that added attack power. For Wu Shaochen, the improvement wasn't significant, and since he was already level 23, he couldn't trigger the Undying Body by fighting level 20 dungeon monsters. Therefore, the attributes only slightly increased.
HP: 16,467, Attack: 1,765, Physical Defense: 983, Magical Defense: 972, Movement Speed: 724, Attack Speed: 167%, Critical Rate: 15%, Luck: 18, Experience: 562,242/600,000. There haven't been many other changes.
In this dungeon run, I actually obtained 5 silver-grade equipment pieces. It seems like the three boss encounters in the dungeons guarantee dropping silver-grade items. Additionally, I got two pieces from the Linlang Guardians. However, none of the 5 silver-grade items were what I needed.
Opening my backpack again, I only have one silver treasure chest left. Wu Shaochen rubbed his hands together. Although it's a silver treasure chest, there's a chance it could contain gold-grade equipment. Even though the odds are low, I've opened gold treasure chests and obtained legendary items before. It shows that I have some luck. I clicked to open it.
"Ding! Congratulations, you have obtained the skill 'Piercing Strike.'"
"Huh, a skill? That's great." The items obtained from the treasure chest are always tailored to the opener's class, so it's definitely an assassin skill. Initially, Wu Shaochen didn't have high expectations for a silver treasure chest, assuming it would most likely contain silver-grade equipment. However, to his surprise, it turned out to be a skill, which was a pleasant surprise.
[Piercing Strike]: Consumes 50 mana, deals 150% physical damage to the target and stuns them for 2 seconds. Cooldown time: 30 seconds. Requirement: Assassin.
A skill that can stun, a valuable asset. You can never have too many skills. I quickly learned it.
After learning the skill, Wu Shaochen looked at the remaining 6 silver-grade, 9 bronze, and 16 iron-grade equipment pieces in his backpack, including the ones dropped by the Skeleton Shieldbearer and Skeleton Assassin. He was too lazy to sort them out before, but now he dealt with them all at once. He put the equipment up for auction one by one. The iron-grade equipment sold for 5,000 each, earning a total of 72,000 yuan. The bronze-grade equipment was priced at 80,000 each and all sold, earning 648,000 yuan. Finally, there were 6 silver-grade pieces, two of which were mage equipment. He decided to keep those for his sister, who would soon reach the newbie village. As for the other four, Wu Shaochen put them up for auction with a bidding period of 30 minutes.
After dealing with all of this, Wu Shaochen looked around and realized he was in a valley. The scenery was quite beautiful.
"Since I'm here, I might as well explore," Wu Shaochen thought to himself and started walking deeper into the valley. He didn't encounter any monsters along the way, which was eerily quiet. After walking for a while, he reached the end of the valley and saw a pool of milky white liquid at the bottom of the cliff. It emitted a faint heat and was surrounded by a gentle steam.
"Hot springs?" Wu Shaochen blinked his eyes in surprise. There are hot springs in the game?
He approached the edge of the pool and was about to reach out to feel the temperature of the hot spring when he noticed a dark shadow underneath. The milky white water made the shadow somewhat visible. Wu Shaochen's curiosity was instantly piqued. He attempted to use his insight skill, but realized he was too far away.
"Should I go in?" Wu Shaochen pondered. The shape of the shadow resembled a person, but he wasn't sure if it was a living creature. If it was, he might be in danger. But if it wasn't, it could be a valuable treasure.
With an intense curiosity, Wu Shaochen couldn't resist the urge. He hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and thinking, "Well, even if I die and lose a level, it's not like I'll really die."
He then slowly descended into the pool, swimming downwards...
"Ding! Absorbing diluted life spring water, +1 HP."
"Ding! Absorbing diluted life spring water, +1 HP."
"Ding! Absorbing diluted life spring water, +1 HP."
Wu Shaochen, who was diving down, was stunned. Soaking in the water increases his life? What kind of incredible life spring water is this?
Meanwhile, as Wu Shaochen entered the water, the dark figure sitting at the bottom of the pool suddenly opened its eyes and looked upwards.
Wu Shaochen was immersed in the pool, continuously hearing the system notifications. One HP was added every second, providing an extremely refreshing feeling. Lost in the pleasure, Wu Shaochen seemed to have forgotten about his initial purpose of coming down.
Just as Wu Shaochen was enjoying his time in the pool, he suddenly felt something approaching from below. He hurriedly looked downwards and saw a figure rushing towards him at an incredible speed. Wu Shaochen's eyes narrowed, and he immediately used Blink to teleport out of the water. Regardless of the situation, it was impossible to fight in the water. However, what shocked him was that the figure followed closely behind him after he blinked, and before he could react, he was kicked to the ground.
-12365
"Tell me, how did you find this place!" A cold voice reached Wu Shaochen's ears.
