29: Chapter 29 Strengthen the Trial Box! Hidden Level!

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman's ice resistance was a bit high,

It wasn't until Ye Ze shot his seventh arrow that the Frost Force finally froze it, turning it into an ice sculpture.

However, it immediately broke free from the restraints.

Crack~

Crack~

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman easily broke out of the ice,

Roar!!!

It let out an angry roar, and thebroken ice on its body fell off.

However—

Frostless effect triggered!

【Frostless: When the frozen state disappears, it deals extremely high burst damage to the target, reduces defense by -15%~30%, and removes all [Frost Erosion] effects.】

The damage from seven layers of Frost Force was instantly detonated!

Crack!!!

Crack!!

Crack!!!

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman's skin cracked like dry land.

Ow!!!

It let out a painful shriek.

Seeing this, Ye Ze showed delight and immediately activated his Ultimate Identification skill.

Under the effect of Ultimate Identification, the Corpse Ghoul Foreman's defense dropped significantly, revealing countless weak points on its body, almost all of which were blood points!

Ye Ze slung the Frost Bow, which had run out of energy, back behind him,

At the same time, he drew a dagger from his waist, locked his gaze on the Corpse Ghoul Foreman, no longer hiding his actions, and charged directly towards it.

This time, the Corpse Ghoul Foreman was truly afraid, and its eyes showed terror.

Roar!!!

It let out a roar, seemingly ordering the surrounding Corpse Fiends to attack Ye Ze.

Whoosh—

Two Corpse Ghoul Patrols charged towards Ye Ze fearlessly, their sharp claws aiming for his vital points.

But Ye Ze didn't even spare them a glance, easily dodging their attacks with a side flash and continuing to close in on the Corpse Ghoul Foreman.

The distance between him and the Corpse Ghoul Foreman rapidly shortened,

Fifty meters...

Thirty meters...

Ten meters...

Five meters...

Roar!!!

Realizing it couldn't escape the pursuit of an assassin, the Corpse Ghoul Foreman let out a roar to bolster its courage and fought Ye Ze to the death.

Whoosh—

A strong gust of wind swept past,

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman swung its giant axe, trying to cut the charging Ye Ze in half at the waist.

Ye Ze leaped, skillfully avoiding the fatal blow, and simultaneously swung his dagger in mid-air,

Ruin Blade Aura!

An extremely thin, destructive blade aura accurately struck the weak point on the Corpse Ghoul Foreman's back.

Rip!

Blood splattered,

A wound ten centimeters deep immediately appeared on the Corpse Ghoul Foreman's back.

Ow!!!

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman howled in pain, quickly turned around, and endured the intense pain to counterattack Ye Ze.

Ye Ze stepped with Shadow Dance Step and engaged in close combat with the Corpse Ghoul Foreman.

Swish~

Swish~

Swish!

His dagger was elusive, agile, and cunning,

In just a few rounds, he left six ten-centimeter-long lacerations on the Corpse Ghoul Foreman's body.

These wounds were difficult-to-heal lacerations, and blood gushed out frantically.

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman's aura grew weaker and weaker, and other Corpse Fiends didn't dare to approach, as any involvement could be fatal,

Only the Armor Corpse Guard, relying on its sturdy defense, dared to join the fight, but its attacks were easily dodged by Ye Ze.

Finally—

Swish~

A cold light flashed across the Corpse Ghoul Foreman's throat,

Splurt!

Blood gushed out,

The Corpse Ghoul Foreman's already overburdened body collapsed heavily to the ground...

...

"Ah, I wonder how that guy Ye Ze is doing now."

Liu Meiqi muttered anxiously to herself, as contract information hadn't been transmitted for a long time.

"He just had to show off and clear it by himself."

"Something an entire team couldn't do, how could you, a Chef, do it all alone!"

She paced back and forth, as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.

Just now, Liu Meiqi went to the official website forum and happened to see a video. She recognized the person in the video; it was Wan Xiao, who had awakened the rare profession—Elemental Mage.

However, even his team suffered a defeat, and one of his teammates even had an arm torn off.

After watching this video, Liu Meiqi's worries deepened.

"Should I go up and take a look?"

"My secret treasure shield's energy has almost recovered; maybe I can help him."

Just as Liu Meiqi was hesitating,

The next second—

【Your contracted teammate killed the Level 10 Enhanced Elite monster Wind Corpse Fiend Guardian, sharing 1800 energy points!】

【Your contracted teammate killed...】

...

【Your contracted teammate killed the Level 12 Boss monster Corpse Ghoul Foreman, sharing 4000 energy points!】

...

【You've leveled up!】

【Your Strength has increased...】

...

...

A series of messages appeared in her mind,

Liu Meiqi was instantly stunned, dumbfounded, her mouth wide open, unable to speak for a long time.

"He really did it!!"

After a few seconds, she came back to her senses, her face beaming with surprise, and she hurriedly ran towards the second floor of the factory...

...

Second floor of the factory, cave riverbank.

Above the Corpse Ghoul Foreman's body, a green transparent light sphere appeared, and within the light sphere, a treasure box floated.

Ye Ze reached out to touch the light sphere, and a string of information flooded into his mind.

【trial treasure box: Corpse Fiend Dungeon first clear reward, opening it grants a Bronze-grade secret treasure, 40 attribute points, and an unknown item】

So this was the first clear reward for the Trial Instance—the trial treasure box.

Just as Ye Ze was about to open the trial treasure box, a sudden thought occurred to him—

Can the trial treasure box be enhanced?

As soon as this thought emerged, it became unstoppable.

God-level Enhancement!

【Consuming 200 energy points, trial treasure box Enhancement +1!】

It can be enhanced!

Ye Ze was ecstatic!

Continue Enhancement!

【Consuming 400 energy points, trial treasure box Enhancement +2!】

【Consuming 800 energy points, trial treasure box Enhancement +3!】

【Consuming 1600 energy points, trial treasure box Enhancement +4!】

【trial treasure box Enhancement +4, gain an additional Enhancement entry!】

『1: Add a Bronze-grade secret treasure (White)』

『2: Reward Doubled (Purple)』

『3: +40 Attribute Points (White)』

"Purple entry! Reward Doubled!"

Ye Ze was overjoyed and decisively chose 2!

Continue Enhancement!

【Consuming 4000 energy points, trial treasure box Enhancement +5!】

【Consuming 12000 energy points, trial treasure box Enhancement +6!】

He glanced at the energy bar

【Energy Bar】: 8 (107490/21000)

With over 100,000 energy points remaining,

It wasn't enough for trial treasure box Enhancement +8, so he couldn't get another additional Enhancement entry.

Ye Ze hesitated for a moment, ultimately deciding not to continue enhancing it. He planned to use these 100,000 energy points on Power Enhancement +8 or Frost Bow +8.

Opening the trial treasure box,

Whoosh~!

As the trial treasure box opened, a burst of brilliant light erupted.

Countless light clusters flew out of the treasure box, and one huge light cluster split into two in the air.

One of them flew towards Ye Ze and finally merged into his body.

[Your Strength index increased by 20 points!]

[Your Constitution index increased by 20 points!]

[Your Agility index increased by 20 points!]

[Your Spirit index increased by 20 points!]

All attributes instantly surged by 80 points!

Ye Ze was overjoyed,

Then he reached out to touch a bronze-colored light cluster,

The light slowly disappeared, finally transforming into a ring that landed in his palm.

At the same time,

A piece of information flowed into his mind,

【Ring of Poisonous Breath】

Secret Treasure Effect One: [Poison Devouring Shield]: +100 Poison Resistance, and generates a shield that absorbs 20000 points of poison damage.

Secret Treasure Effect Two: [Poison Aura]: Poison Damage +100, causing your attacks to carry poison damage.

————

"Poison Damage +100, looks pretty good."

Ye Ze slightly curved his lips and put it on his finger.

He continued to touch the second bronze-colored light cluster,

【storage ring】

Secret Treasure Effect One: [Storage Space]: A 5x5 yard independent space.

————

It's a storage ring!

Ye Ze was ecstatic and quickly put it on his finger.

Injecting mystic energy inwards, his consciousness entered a 5x5 yard independent space.

With a thought, the bulky backpack on his back disappeared and appeared in the storage space the next second.

Finally, he didn't have to envy others for having storage rings!

Besides these two Bronze-grade secret treasures and the attribute light spheres, there were some other items.

Under [Spirit Vision], the attributes of these items were presented before Ye Ze one by one.

【mithril: Second-tier metal, mined from mithril veins, possesses extremely high magic affinity, and is an ideal material for forging second-tier equipment.】

【seven fragrance corpse flower: First-tier Spirit herb, grows in places with strong corpse poison, possesses intense toxicity, cannot be eaten, but can be used to make potions and powders, can create illusions...】

【black iron: First-tier metal, black iron veins exist where meteorites fall, it is deep black in color, hard in texture, and magnetic】

"mithril, second-tier metal!"

Ye Ze showed a look of joy on his face,

He didn't know the value of mithril, but he had seen black iron at the Nanjiang Exchange; 1 unit of black iron was priced at 10,000 dragon coins! (1 unit = 10 cubic centimeters)

mithril would only be more valuable!

He put these metal Spirit herbs into the storage ring, a total of 10 units of mithril, 5 seven fragrance corpse flowers, and 20 units of black iron.

"Hmm? What's this?"

Finally, there was a white transparent light sphere left, with a paper item floating inside.

Reaching out to touch the transparent light sphere,

The next moment,

A piece of information flowed into his mind,

【Corpse Fiend Lair Third Floor Map: The production center of the Corpse Fiend Lair...】

Ye Ze was startled: "Third floor map! This Corpse Ghoul Factory has a third floor!"
