50: Chapter 50 Making a fortune

"Cleared?! This is absolutely impossible!"

"This is absolutely impossible!"

"How long has it been since they entered? Even if the Burial Ground boss, General Malkas, stood still and let them attack, with the output of eleven people, it is absolutely impossible to deplete 150 million HP in such a short time!"

Augus—the burly, bald, foreign heavy knight—turned pale the moment he heard the news, looking as if he had swallowed a fly. Veins bulged on his thick arms, revealing his inner turmoil.

He knew that in such a major matter concerning the interests and reputation of the entire guild, no one would dare to spread false information, as it would be too easy to expose, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Since the news was true...

Then everything happening before his eyes could only be described as terrifying!

Where on earth did Shen Yanshan invite such a monster-like existence from?

The fact that the other party could enter a Level 97 secret realm meant that their level did not exceed 100. A Class Transferee under level 100 was actually able to lead an incomplete team and crush a Sovereign-rank team Dungeon boss with a "steamrolling" momentum?

This completely subverted Augus's understanding of the power system!

A shocking thought flashed through his mind—could this mysterious helper be a peerless genius with a legendary SS-Rank Talent or even higher?

One had to know, the entire Zhongnan City could not afford to hire a powerhouse of this level on the surface. What kind of relationship did Shen Yanshan use, and what price did he pay to hire such a big shot?

At this moment, the onlookers led by Augus still stubbornly believed that the "mysterious powerhouse" had forced the team to crush the boss with their own heaven-defying combat power. They could never have imagined that the truth was simply that Lin Muyang had activated three seemingly simple but actually heaven-defying support Auras in the back!

Soon, more specific information came.

Sun Wenyuan and the others posted the attributes of the 【Pursuer's Bracers (Sovereign-rank)】 dropped by the first boss to the internal channel of Tianqi Tower.

Everyone who saw this message gasped!

The high agility, critical hit rate, and a practical trigger effect attached to the bracers all highlighted their top-tier attributes. If placed in an auction house, this piece of equipment could easily sell for a sky-high price of over 300 million magic crystals!

"We only spent 320 million magic crystals when we bought the secret realm scroll for this 'Burial Ground'," a guild elder muttered. "We've only finished the first boss, and this one piece of equipment has almost paid for the cost..."

"There are still six bosses left... Won't we make a fortune after this trip?" another person chimed in, their voice filled with excitement and disbelief.

Listening to the discussion around him, Shen Yanshan finally showed a look of relief on his face, feeling fortunate for his decisive decision. It was his unique vision and courage to take risks that won Tianqi Tower the opportunity to cooperate with this mysterious genius.

He could also foresee that after this secret realm raid, the existence of this "super genius" would likely no longer be able to be kept completely secret and would inevitably attract close attention and competition from major forces in Zhongnan City and even further afield.

Unfortunately, Shen Yanshan and all the members of Tianqi Tower would never think of one fact—they might feel that they had made a fortune this time, but Lin Muyang, who remained hidden behind the scenes and kept his deeds and fame secret, was the true and biggest winner of this feast! His gains would far exceed everyone's imagination!

...

The "Burial Ground" secret realm, shrouded in sickly green moonlight, was dead silent and eerie.

The eleven-man team led by Sun Wenyuan was in high spirits after easily resolving the first boss. They quickly regrouped, stepped into a twisted, withered dark forest leading to the next area, and began clearing the low-level skeleton soldiers and decaying liches wrapped in vengeful spirits patrolling along the way.

Meanwhile, Lin Muyang seized this opportunity and, with Succubus Maiden Elabess, returned like two real ghosts to the pile of giant withered bones that General Malkas had turned into.

After confirming that no one around was paying attention, he moved his mind and temporarily turned off the 【Frost Erosion】 and 【Weakness】 combat support Auras.

Immediately after, three translucent force fields with completely different properties spread out quietly from him, like invisible ripples, gently sweeping over the pile of remains symbolizing the death of the boss—

【Heavenly Blessing】—Luck increased, increasing the probability of high-quality item drops!

【Loot Extraction】—Loot drop quantity doubled!

【Rolling Wealth】—Magic crystal drop amount doubled!

Switching Auras, complete!

The moment the three God-Tier Aura for looting took effect—

Hum!

The pile of silent withered bones seemed to be injected with some strange power, suddenly bursting with six or seven dazzling rays of light! Four of them were deep and majestic dark gold (Emperor Level), two were the brilliance of skill books containing profound fluctuations, one was the light of pure magic crystal condensation, and one was a scroll exuding special spatial fluctuations!

Succubus Maiden Elabess moved gracefully and quickly, like a dancer in the dark night, and with light steps, she picked up all the dropped items and carefully held them in front of Lin Muyang.

"Just in magic crystals, I pulled out 5.26 million!" Lin Muyang glanced at the soaring numbers in his storage space, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"Four Emperor Level pieces of equipment, one Emperor Level normal skill book, one... origin skill book! And a Dungeon scroll?" Counting this harvest, even Lin Muyang felt some unexpected joy.

These Emperor Level pieces of equipment and that normal skill book, although powerful in attributes and dazzling in light, could not be equipped or used by him at his current level. However, as hard currency, they would become a powerful help for him to achieve magic crystal freedom. Lin Muyang knew very well that at the speed of his and the young ladies' strength growth, by the time he reached level 97 and could use this equipment, it would likely have been eliminated long ago, and at that time, the equipment on his body should at least be epic-grade or even legendary-grade.

"However, this origin skill book is indeed a good thing!" Lin Muyang's eyes focused on the skill book exuding unique rule fluctuations.

【Black Hole Vortex (Origin)】

Occupation Restriction: Dark-type Mage

Skill Effect: Create a powerful Black Hole Vortex in the designated area, continuously attracting and imprisoning all enemies within the range, causing huge dark-attribute magic damage to them per second. The basic duration of the Black Hole Vortex is 10 seconds, with a cooldown of 300 seconds.

Growth Attribute: After the skill level increases, it can increase the suction range, increase damage per second, extend the duration, and reduce the cooldown.

Special Effect: After the skill level is increased to level 20, this skill will ignore the target's magic immunity effect!

"As expected of an origin skill book produced by a Sovereign-rank team Dungeon!" Lin Muyang praised. origin skill books have no learning level restrictions. Once mastered, proficiency can be accumulated through continuous use, infinitely increasing its level. The higher the skill level, the more terrifying the power, but the proficiency required for upgrading also grows exponentially.

As far as Lin Muyang knew, the person on Blue Star who had raised an Origin Skill to the highest level was the Sword Saint in Xia Country who possessed an SSS-Rank Talent. His Origin Skill "One Strike to Sever All" was said to have been cultivated to level 54, possessing the power to split mountains and break the sea, and was a Nation-Guarding Level powerhouse.

For the vast majority of Class Transferees, being able to raise an Origin Skill to level 20 and activate its hidden special effects was already a lifelong achievement.

However, on this point, Lin Muyang possessed an absolute advantage that no one else could compare to!

In his God-Tier Aura library, there were heaven-defying Auras such as 【Wisdom Enlightenment】 (skill proficiency acquisition speed increased by 1000%) and 【Infinite Firepower】 (skill cooldown reduction by 90%) that could directly or indirectly greatly accelerate the upgrade speed of Origin Skills!

"Elabess, this skill book is very suitable for you." Lin Muyang handed the priceless 【Black Hole Vortex (Origin)】 skill book to the Succubus Maiden beside him without hesitation.

A flash of surprise and emotion crossed Elabess's pale purple eyes. She took the skill book with both hands, and the skill book instantly turned into a deep shadow streamer, merging into her body.

If this 【Black Hole Vortex (Origin)】 skill book were placed in a top auction house in the outside world, its value would start at at least 4 to 5 billion magic crystals! If it met a dark magic tycoon who needed it urgently, it would not be impossible for it to sell for a sky-high price of over 10 billion under fierce competition!

In other words, just the "extra" loot from this first boss—four pieces of Emperor Level equipment, one Emperor Level normal skill book, one origin skill book—had a total value approaching 20 billion magic crystals! This did not count the 5 million plus in magic crystal cash, or the Emperor Level Dungeon scroll with unknown but definitely extraordinary uses!

And this was just the beginning. Behind, there were six more powerful Sovereign-rank bosses waiting for them... or rather, waiting for Lin Muyang's arrival.
