88: Holy Light Gem

“My heavens!”

A cry of surprise pulled everyone back to reality from their shock.

“He really cleared it? Soloing a Nightmare Dungeon?”

“Boss, we’ve been running the normal difficulty with a full team for a month straight and haven’t succeeded, how could he solo Nightmare difficulty?”

“Fake, it must be fake.”

“Did you see his name?”

“Ye Xiu? He’s Lin Ling? Holy crap.”

“Lin Ling must have used some item to change his appearance.”

“God Lin, take me with you!”

“Lin Da, I’m Little Tuantuan, we met last year.”

Those remaining Professionals rushed towards the portal like hungry wolves seeing meat.

Just then, Lin Ling had already opened the portal again, still choosing Nightmare difficulty.

White light flashed, and Lin Ling disappeared again.

At this moment, no one doubted anymore; only by successfully clearing it could one continue to enter.

And the world before Lin Ling’s eyes instantly changed.

He had arrived at a beach, a large ship beached by the sea, with a gray flag hanging from its mast.

The gray beach was covered with Goblin Sailors wearing red headbands, numbering in the thousands.

Last time, Lin Ling had unleashed a Meteor Shower as soon as he entered.

All the monsters in the Dungeon were cleared within tens of seconds, and the entire Dungeon was filled with the smell of roasted fish.

Because his level was sealed, he only got one purple equipment, one gold equipment, and a warrior skill book.

As for the holy light gem, Lin Ling hadn’t even seen its shadow.

Both were disaster-level Dungeons, but the rewards from the Job Transfer Shrine Dungeon and the Abyss Dungeon were vastly different.

“Could it be that because I cleared it too quickly, I didn’t get the holy light gem reward? This time, I’ll slow down the clear speed and try to truly solo it with Blazing Fireball and the Wolf Tooth Hammer in my hand.”

Lin Ling muttered to himself.

As soon as he appeared, a dozen Goblin Sailors immediately rushed over.

They roared while brandishing their harpoons.

Lin Ling instantly used the hidden skill of the Soldier King Cloak, and the Goblin Sailors’ aggro disappeared, returning to their wandering state.

“Hero’s Eye!”

Lin Ling immediately used Hero’s Eye on the foremost sailor.

[Goblin Sailor (Elite)]

[Level: Lv60]

[HP: 23000]

[Physical Damage: 3800]

[Defense: 2200]

“Their stats aren’t even as high as the monsters in the disaster-level Abyss Dungeon.”

Lin Ling’s mind stirred, and his attribute panel immediately opened.

[Name: Lin Ling]

[Combat Profession: All-Professional Mage]

[Level: 40 (99.99%)]

[All Attribute Boost 250% Active]

[HP: 44886, Mana: 83160]

[Physical Damage: 31450, Magic Damage: 32340]

[Defense: 15575, Speed: 380 mph]

[Stamina: 3325]

[Strength: 3295+3000 (King of Soldiers Hammer)]

[Intelligence: 5943]

[Agility: 3850]

[Accuracy: 90%]

[Available Attribute Points: 0]

Looking at his panel, Lin Ling’s heart couldn’t help but surge with excitement.

Aside from his relatively low HP, his attributes were already quite explosive.

Even without equipment, holding the King of Soldiers Hammer, he had nearly 20,000 physical damage.

Are these the stats a mage should have?

Alice’s quest reward of 200% all attribute boost, combined with the War God Hall team’s 50% all attribute boost, caused his attributes to soar.

Aside from the Lv10 sacred set’s HP being a bit low, he was like a human beast at this moment.

Especially seeing his strength attribute, Lin Ling’s mouth twitched slightly.

“HP is my biggest weakness right now; I must quickly craft a specialized weapon.”

Lin Ling said, directly throwing a Blazing Fireball, which instantly exploded among the monsters, creating a ten-meter diameter fire ring.

-32000

-32000

A string of high damage numbers floated up, and all Goblin Assassins engulfed by the fire were instantly killed.

[Congratulations! You have killed Lv60 Goblin Assassin, gaining Experience +1]

[Congratulations! You have killed Lv60 Goblin Assassin, gaining Experience +1]

Lin Ling frowned slightly; the level seal meant a lot of experience was wasted, and he didn’t know how long Old Jiang would take to prepare the materials.

He stopped thinking about it, wielding a great hammer in his left hand and a staff in his right, quickly moving through the Goblin Assassins.

Twenty minutes later…

[Congratulations! You have successfully cleared the Nightmare difficulty Second Job Transfer Dungeon, receiving a 5-star rating.]

[Congratulations! You have received Reward Experience +1]

[Congratulations! You have received a Priest Skill Book]

[Congratulations! You have received Sailor’s Necklace (Perfect)]

[Congratulations! You have received Moonlight Robe (Epic)]

[Congratulations! You have received Iridescent Clam * 5]

Lin Ling was speechless looking at the system notification; there was still no holy light gem.

An Iridescent Clam appeared in his hand, and he immediately used Hero’s Eye.

[Iridescent Clam]

[Special Item]

[Its shell makes a very nice decoration, and its meat is sweet, much loved by young girls.]

[Eating the clam meat immediately restores 10% HP. Wearing the shell can increase mana regeneration speed by 1%.]

Lin Ling shook his head; this item was basically useless.

After leaving the Dungeon, he immediately started the third run.

Time quietly passed, and in a blink of an eye, it was noon.

Lin Ling was already on his eleventh Dungeon run.

When he smashed the last Goblin Assassin with a hammer, the clear notification arrived as expected.

[Congratulations! You have successfully cleared the Nightmare difficulty Second Job Transfer Dungeon, receiving a 5-star rating.]

[Congratulations! You have received Reward Experience +1.]

“What’s going on? This time there’s not even equipment or broken clams?”

Lin Ling was speechless and flashed out of the Dungeon.

He had been constantly grinding the Dungeon all morning, but the crowd outside grew larger and larger.

Many people knew that Lin Ling was grinding the Job Transfer Dungeon, and a large number of fans and curious onlookers flocked to the Job Transfer Shrine.

Perhaps they wanted to see if Ye Xiu was indeed Lin Ling, or perhaps they just wanted to know Lin Ling’s location.

In short, people with various motives gathered together.

But this time, when Lin Ling came out, he didn’t see a single person.

The onlookers seemed to have been driven away.

Lin Ling ignored them and did not enter the Dungeon again, but walked towards Alice.

He suddenly felt that to get the holy light gem, he definitely needed some technique, otherwise, the one percent chance was too low.

“Kind Miss Alice, I need a holy light gem, can you help me?” Lin Ling went straight to the point.

Alice smiled sweetly but shook her head gently, “Honorable Mr. Mage, I really want to help you, but I truly don’t know where the holy light gem is. However, I’m a bit hungry and would like some seafood; could you get some for me?”

As Alice spoke, a blush appeared on her face, seemingly apologetic for her unreasonable request.

“Seafood?”

Lin Ling was startled, where the heck am I supposed to get seafood for you?

“I actually do have some seafood.”

A dozen rainbow clams immediately appeared in his hand, which he handed to Alice.

A look of ecstasy flashed in Alice’s eyes; she clearly loved these colorful rainbow clams.

She gently pried open a shell, and a piece of delicious clam meat was swallowed by her.

Alice’s face was filled with enjoyment.

[Alice’s Favorability +20%]

“Mr. Mage, won’t you have some?” Alice asked somewhat shyly.

Lin Ling shook his head; he didn’t like eating raw seafood.

Alice quickly ate all dozen clams.

Suddenly.

“Oh dear…”

Alice exclaimed, raising her hand and spitting out the clam meat from her mouth.

A stone radiating seven-colored light immediately appeared before Lin Ling’s eyes.
