13: Xu Chuchu's invitation

“Still want to fight?”

The leading woman on the opposite side glanced at Zhao and asked in return.

Zhao's face flushed, and he said nothing.

Originally, among their seven people, the main damage dealers were himself and the earth mage.

The remaining Shield Warrior and Priest had weak combat power and were merely support professions.

The Rose Guild, on the other hand, had a full seven-person team. If they were to fight, his side would definitely be at a disadvantage.

“Let’s go.”

Zhao waved his hand, not answering the woman’s question, and led the remaining four people away in a huff.

After everyone left, Li Changkong was also ready to continue heading deeper into the forest to farm monsters.

But the leading woman called out to him: “Wait, are you Li Changkong?”

“You know me?”

Li Changkong turned around, a little surprised.

“I heard about you two days ago,” the woman smiled faintly, tucking a strand of hair behind her ear: “I guess I’m your senior, from the previous year. My name is Xu Chuchu.”

Hearing that name, Li Changkong was slightly startled.

He was not unfamiliar with the name Xu Chuchu. She was an excellent student from the previous year, seemingly admitted to Wuyang Academy.

Although Wuyang Academy was at the bottom among the ten major academies in Dragon Country, it was still an academy countless students yearned for.

She seemed to have awakened a legendary-level Priest profession, but he hadn't expected her to return to Blue Sea City.

“Is there something, senior?”

Li Changkong seemed to have thought of something, turning back with a smile and asking.

“I joined the Rose Guild before the big exam last year. This time, I took advantage of the holiday to come back and bring my guild members out for a stroll. I just wanted to ask, are you interested in joining the Rose Guild?”

Xu Chuchu looked at the junior in front of her with great interest.

After the Transferee list came out yesterday, she noticed Li Changkong.

After all, the only profession that had never appeared in Blue Sea City—just that title alone was enough to attract attention.

It was hard to get Li Changkong’s information from a junior she knew from before, and she hadn't expected to meet him today.

“Not interested.”

Li Changkong shook his head.

Due to the uniqueness of his profession, Li Changkong did not want to join a group.

As long as he was willing, he could learn all the skills of all professions. By then, one person would be an entire team.

He didn't need any guild's protection. After the big exam, he probably wouldn't have much connection with Blue Sea City anymore.

“Alright.” Although Xu Chuchu was a little disappointed, she didn't press on, changing the subject: “How about we add each other as friends?”

“Sure.”

Li Changkong nodded, not caring too much.

More friends mean more paths. There were some things he didn't understand, and he could just ask this senior.

After they added each other as forum friends, Li Changkong looked at Xu Chuchu with interest.

He smiled and said: “Senior, because I’ve always been a solo player, I haven’t seen a Priest’s skills, so I have a small request. Can you cast a skill for me to see?”

Hearing this, Xu Chuchu was a little surprised.

However, she didn't refuse, nodding: “Okay.”

After speaking, she took a step back, and a layer of white light gradually covered her body.

“Holy Light Spell!”

After her words fell, a beam of white light landed on one of the guild members behind her.

“This Holy Light Spell can remove all control and heal the target’s injuries.”

Since no one among them was injured, Xu Chuchu added an explanation.

And on the Lecturer's Book in front of Li Changkong, the words “Holy Light Spell” also gradually appeared.

“Thank you, senior. I’ll be going now.”

After copying the skill, Li Changkong waved his hand and left first.

Leaving the few people behind, bewildered in the wind.

“Is that guy really a life profession?”

The cute girl behind Xu Chuchu also stood out at this moment, her mouth wide open, saying with great surprise.

“If we can get this person into our guild, then our guild will definitely become the number one guild in Blue Sea City in the future.”

Xu Chuchu looked at Li Changkong’s back, pondering to herself.

...

Li Changkong didn't expect his luck to be so good, getting two professional skills at once.

One was an epic mage professional skill, and the other was a legendary Priest professional skill.

And in the subsequent battles, Li Changkong became even more at ease.

As long as the Fire Vein True Dragon's strength was controlled, it could be considered a Sharp Weapon for farming monsters, and the consumption of Mental Energy was not too much.

The Holy Light Spell currently had no opportunity to be used. These ordinary monsters couldn't even break the defense of one person and one beast.

After entering the interior of the Dark Forest, the types of monsters appearing increased.

In addition to bats, there were also Night Wolves.

“Killed Blood Bat X5, gained 500 Experience!”

“Killed Night Wolf X3, gained 450 Experience!”

...

As Li Changkong advanced, they soon arrived at the center of the Dark Forest.

And at the center of the Dark Forest was a very tall castle.

The entire castle, under the darkness, appeared particularly eerie and terrifying, making Li Changkong shiver involuntarily.

After taking a deep breath, Li Changkong entered the castle.

Upon entering the castle, Li Changkong didn't see any monsters at first, only seeing many plate-armored warrior statues placed in the castle's main hall.

Just as Li Changkong was curious and preparing to go to the second floor of the castle.

He heard a cracking sound from around him, which immediately put Li Changkong on alert.

Immediately after, the warrior statues that had been standing still suddenly trembled.

As the cracking sound intensified, those plate-armored warriors actually began to move.

“Name: Warrior's Soul”

“Rank: 24”

“Skills: Bash, Ambush.”

The more than ten warriors in the hall were now waving the swords in their hands and rushing towards Li Changkong.

“Roar roar roar.”

A low growl came from Black Flame’s mouth.

The next second, Black Flame rushed in front of those warriors and began to fight them.

The armor of these knights was indeed extremely thick. Black Flame’s bites and claw attacks had always been irresistible.

But the armor of these knights on the opposite side couldn't be broken through immediately.

However, fortunately, their Rank was not too high. With the cooperation of Li Changkong's Fire Vein True Dragon, these warriors were quickly dealt with.

Li Changkong also obtained a few first-level dark attribute energy stones, but their effect on Black Flame was no longer too significant.

If Black Flame wanted to Breakthrough to the Middle Stage of its mature period, it would require at least several hundred dark attribute energy stones.

After throwing them to Black Flame to eat, it still restored some of his stamina.

Looking at Black Flame, who was only Rank five, Li Changkong already felt that his Rank was too low and somewhat insufficient.

Today's Experience Transfer had not been used yet, and Li Changkong thought about simply increasing Black Flame's Rank.

After arriving in front of Black Flame, he activated Experience Transfer.

“Transfer target detected: Black Flame”

“Please select the amount of experience to allocate.”

“Experience Transfer: 500 points.”
