Resurrection Grass, one million credits!
Whoosh—
A magic arrow with a blue tail fin shot straight at Lin Xuan’s forehead.
Lin Xuan grinned.
“I was just looking for a reason to take you guys out.”
He used Flash to adjust his position.
He threw out a Willow Ghost BOSS corpse, reviving it to disrupt the two people’s advance.
Then, he used White Bone Cage for a strong crowd control.
He followed up with offensive skills: Soul Fire, Grasp of Death.
Finally, he unleashed an artistic explosion.
Boom—
Amidst the smoke rising from the explosion of the Corpse Ghost BOSS,
In an instant, the two professionals, along with their mounts, vanished into the mountain forest.
+56000, +37200.
“Oh—!”
“There’s a good person!”
Guo Miaomiao stopped her pink deer in surprise.
She looked up in Lin Xuan’s direction.
Due to the backlight,
She couldn’t clearly see his face, so she sweetly thanked him.
“Thank you, kind stranger.”
“…”
Lin Xuan was originally immersed in the joy of catching a big fish.
He was unexpectedly given a ‘good person’ card.
He pursed his lips helplessly.
“Senior, it’s me.”
He jumped off the rock and quickly arrived in front of Guo Miaomiao.
“Ah, it’s you.” Guo Miaomiao’s face instantly turned crimson.
Lin Xuan shook his head.
This senior, she’s still socially anxious.
“Senior, the Trial Secret Realm is so dangerous, why did you come here?”
“I, I want to earn some academic credits.” Guo Miaomiao bit her lip, appearing somewhat nervous, “The herbs here are the easiest to identify.”
“There are many precious herbs.”
“Like Paris polyphylla, Elaeagnus pungens, Solanum nigrum, and Sedum.”
“I even found a really big Rejuvenation Grass, which added fifty thousand academic credits!”
“That’s even more than what I get by following Sister Xiuxiu to kill big BOSSes.”
“Fifty thousand, Rejuvenation Grass?!” Lin Xuan’s eyes lit up.
“Senior, can I see the Rejuvenation Grass?”
“Here.” Guo Miaomiao had no guard against him whatsoever.
She took out a small, arm-length grass from her backpack.
“Here, this is it, it’s a really big one.”
Lin Xuan took it and examined it.
He found that the grass had seven leaves.
The leaves were slender and soft, curling outwards and drooping downwards.
Each leaf had seven corners, and each corner had seven veins.
The stem was cylindrical, looking like ginger, emitting a faint, ethereal green glow.
“Rejuvenation Grass, seven leaves, seven corners, seven veins.”
“Legend says that if you dig up Rejuvenation Grass, you can find the Ginseng Doll.”
“It’s a pity I dug there for a long time and didn’t find it.”
“It must be because I didn’t bring a red string, so the Ginseng Doll ran away.”
Guo Miaomiao said, pouting in frustration, and seeing Lin Xuan staring intently, she asked,
“Do you really like this grass?”
“It’s for you.”
“For me?” Lin Xuan was a little surprised.
“Yes.” Guo Miaomiao tilted her head and explained.
“Rejuvenation Grass, its scientific name is ‘Selaginella’, and it has hemostatic and astringent properties.”
“Now, only life professionals find it useful.”
“I’m not a life professional, and when I collected it just now, the academic credits were already added.”
“Is that so?” Lin Xuan stared at the herb in his hand, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Among the materials for Irena’s transformation, one of them was the Rejuvenation Pill.
Rejuvenation Grass, Rejuvenation Pill.
With such similar names, Lin Xuan didn’t believe there was no connection between them.
“How about this, Senior, the herb might be useful to me, so I’ll keep it for now.”
“After we leave the Secret Realm, I’ll find a way to compensate you.”
“No need for compensation.” Guo Miaomiao waved her hand, feeling a bit embarrassed.
“You just saved me, so consider this a thank-you gift.”
Lin Xuan smiled and said nothing more.
“Well, if there’s nothing else, I’ll continue collecting herbs.”
“Okay, be careful.”
Lin Xuan nodded, watching Guo Miaomiao ride her pink deer into the distance.
He put away the Rejuvenation Grass, intending to go back and study it.
Just then,
Whoosh—
Another arrow tore through the air.
Its speed was incredibly fast, heading straight for his face.
Nima!
Who is the practical combat teacher at Mingzhu University?!
It’s either low blows or directly for the face.
So underhanded!
Lin Xuan dodged with a roll.
The arrow missed, embedding itself diagonally into the ground.
Whoosh—
Another arrow struck.
It suddenly exploded in mid-air, transforming into dozens of falling arrows.
Lin Xuan was starting to get annoyed.
“Irena!”
Roar—
A deafening dragon roar echoed through the mountain forest.
Irena’s super-large-scale crowd control skill, Howl of the Mountains and Rivers!
It could cause targets within the area to fall into a dazed and deafened state.
In an instant, everyone in the entire mountain forest except Lin Xuan was covered by the skill.
Irena, in just one breath,
Used telepathy to inform him of the enemy’s location in the forest.
Lin Xuan understood immediately.
However, before he could act, the enemy had already charged out.
This was a woman dressed in black, tight-fitting combat attire.
She carried a bow on her back, held a dagger in her hand, and charged at Lin Xuan, enveloped in green light.
“Shameless! How dare you trick Miaomiao out of her things!”
“Hand over Miaomiao’s things!”
Whoosh—
The dagger thrust towards Lin Xuan’s heart.
Lin Xuan simply watched as the dagger’s attack landed on him.
-3700!
The damage was quite high.
If it were any other mage, they would probably be in a severely injured state.
But for Lin Xuan, it didn’t even reach one percent of his health bar.
Looking at the woman’s face before him,
Lin Xuan pursed his lips.
He had already guessed the woman’s identity.
Most likely, she was a good friend of Guo Miaomiao.
Her behavior clearly indicated that she had misunderstood him.
However, Lin Xuan was not one to be gentle with women.
He remembered that this woman had ambushed him with an arrow earlier.
Seemingly seeing Lin Xuan unharmed,
The woman was momentarily startled.
She was about to retreat.
Thump—
Lin Xuan’s palm had already struck her abdomen.
Splitting Mount Hua!
It was one of the common skills he learned specifically to prevent being ambushed in close combat!
It could cause the target to be knocked airborne or knocked back!
It was a pity that the damage was calculated based on strength.
Lin Xuan had held back.
He hadn’t used Reversal of Qiankun to shift his attribute points to strength.
Even so,
A close-range hit to a vital point had already made the woman retreat five meters.
Seizing this opportunity,
Lin Xuan’s White Bone Cage had already been cast upon her.
But the woman’s skill was very strange.
In a blink of an eye, she appeared under a nearby large tree.
“Shadow Assassin?”
Lin Xuan noticed a shadow under the tree.
He quickly guessed the woman’s profession.
The woman snorted, about to launch another attack.
Not far away, Guo Miaomiao rode her pink deer quickly, shouting,
“Sister Qiuqiu, he’s a good person!”
Hearing the voice,
The woman hesitated for a moment, not continuing her attack.
She just stared coldly at Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan pursed his lips.
This attitude.
It really annoyed him.
At this moment, Guo Miaomiao arrived nearby, leaping off the small deer’s back.
She quickly explained to the woman in her ear.
Soon, the woman’s gaze softened.
She scrutinized Lin Xuan up and down.
Finally, she put away her weapon and bowed deeply to Lin Xuan.
“My apologies, Junior Lin.”
“Miaomiao is too easily deceived, I was just anxious about her.”
“Please forgive my rashness.”
“As compensation, I am willing to give you a purple-tier equipment after we leave the Secret Realm.”
Purple-tier equipment, worth tens of thousands at least, and hundreds of thousands or even millions at most.
The woman’s words were very sincere.
However, Lin Xuan currently wasn’t lacking in purple epic equipment.
He hadn’t even claimed the two pieces the school had promised him earlier.
His plan was to see which set piece he was missing.
Then he would ask the school for it.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan looked at the woman and fell silent.
She seemed to notice his gaze.
The woman’s face flushed slightly, and she tugged at her collar.
“Huh?” Lin Xuan was confused.
What does that mean? What is she thinking?!
I’m looking at your academic credits, hey!
Aren’t assassins supposed to be very calm and rational thinkers?
Where did her mind go?!
“No?” The woman took a deep breath, looking at Lin Xuan.
“Oh, no need.” Lin Xuan shrugged.
“Why? Although you’re very strong among the new students, you’re only level forty.”
“You’ll definitely be missing set pieces in the future.”
“I know a senior blacksmith, he has the ability to forge set pieces.”
“Senior blacksmith.” Lin Xuan smiled and said, “That’s not what I meant.”
“What I mean is, what I want has already arrived!”
“Come out.” Lin Xuan shouted towards the mountain forest ahead.
Immediately, a dense crowd of professionals emerged from the silent mountain forest ahead.
Some held longswords, some held bows, and some held magic staffs.
Their gazes were cold, and their aura was fierce.
Lin Xuan saw them and was overjoyed.
“If I clear all of them this wave, I should get over a million academic credits!”
