"Want to get the first kill in the dungeon?"
Phantom City Xia Haitang stared dumbfounded at the message from Feng Hua. What did he mean?
Phantom City Xia Haitang:
"No good deed goes unpunished. What’s your real intention?"
"Just say what you want right away."
Lin Yi, leaning against a tree trunk, looked at the message with a helpless expression. Trying to do a good deed, only to be treated like a thief, what a bother.
"If I said I just want to help you get a first kill, would you believe me?"
After all, being a ’shareholder’ of the Ice and Snow Illusion City, shouldn’t I consider my own people first when there’s a benefit?
Phantom City Xia Haitang:
"Are you that kind-hearted? I don’t believe it."
Seeing Xia Haitang’s reply, Lin Yi was speechless.
To avoid trouble, Lin Yi didn’t want to reveal his identity.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Yi replied again:
"How about this, I’ll help you get a first kill, and it’ll cost you ten thousand. But all the items dropped from the first kill are mine. If there’s anything you want, you have to buy it. How about it?"
Phantom City Xia Haitang showed an expression of "I knew it," glaring at the chat box as if facing Feng Hua in person,
"I told you, you weren’t that kind-hearted!"
Well, don’t want what’s free, prefer to spend money—what are people thinking nowadays?
"So, do you want it or not?"
Spending ten thousand for a first kill just to be on the world announcement once, though a bit pained, considering it could boost her and the guild’s reputation, Phantom City Xia Haitang reluctantly agreed.
Phantom City Xia Haitang:
"But it might still take a while before I reach level 10."
"No rush. Just reach level ten today and let me know."
After hanging up the communication, Phantom City Xia Haitang said to the few people beside her:
"Next, I’ll pull the mobs, and you guys deal all the damage, help me level up to ten as soon as possible."
After hanging up with Xia Haitang, just as Lin Yi was about to continue leveling up, he remembered something very important!
Spirit Summoning Technique (Active): Randomly summon creatures from the Nine Netherworld to fight for oneself. The summoned creatures’ level will not exceed the summoner’s by more than 3 levels. Unless the summoned creatures die or the summoner actively cancels the summon, they will not disappear. Skill Consumption: 500 Mana, Cool-down Time: 24h
He planned to try it out right after changing professions, but forgot due to the appearance of the Divine Hall Madman.
Afterward, he subconsciously regarded himself as a Mage and automatically ignored this skill—unbelievable.
Lin Yi jumped down from the tree trunk, walked to an open space, and cast the skill,
"Spirit Summoning Technique"
A six-pointed star array appeared on the open space, emitting a strong light.
Instinctively closing his eyes, when the light dissipated, something new appeared where the array was...
A palm-sized, winged little figure, or rather... an elf?!
"What the heck is this?"
Lin Yi quickly checked the summoned creature’s information,
Race: Elemental Spirit (Support)
Physical Defense: 100-200
Magic Defense: 100-200
Aphra’s Shelter: When the master’s life value drops to 10%, Aifula provides an Energy Shield to the master, absorbing all damage for the next 3 seconds. Skill Mana Consumption: 240. Skill Cool-down Time: 3h.
Aphra’s Healing: Instantly restores 220 life value to the master and continuously restores 100 life value for the next 10 seconds. Skill Mana Consumption: 55; Skill Cool-down Time: 10 s.
Life Contract: When the master dies, Aifula sacrifices its life to resurrect the master.
Seeing these three skills, Lin Yi was stunned.
He thought he’d summon a helper to fight monsters and level up; he never expected to summon a pure support elf.
Judging by the skill descriptions, isn’t this like having a Priest by your side?
Though a bit surprised, Lin Yi was quite satisfied.
In the future, there will be more solo missions, and with this support elf now, it’s undoubtedly a stronger guarantee.
Moreover, Lin Yi also found that with the ’Aphra’s Shelter’ skill, he already had two life-saving skills, or maybe three.
One is the passive from the jewelry ’Heart of Compassion of Fenam’: Can resist one fatal damage, Cool-down Time: 24 hours.
And then there is this [Aphra’s Shelter], three seconds of invincibility!
And also the Life Contract, which is equivalent to having an extra life at the cost of sacrificing the life of a summoned creature.
Perhaps because it was summoned by Lin Yi, the little spirit appeared very affectionately, sticking to Lin Yi’s face and rubbing constantly, occasionally letting out a bell-like laugh.
"Hello, little one, nice to meet you."
Aifula seemed to understand Lin Yi’s words, cheerfully fluttering its transparent little wings, dancing gracefully in front of Lin Yi.
Although this is just a pile of data in a game, for some reason, the moment Aifula appeared, Lin Yi felt as if this was a real world.
Just like the Aifula in front of you, you would never see it as mere data.
Because Lin Yi could clearly feel the joy coming from Aifula’s heart.
Although it seemed a bit incredible, Lin Yi accepted this special emotion.
At least with Aifula by his side in the future, leveling up won’t be so boring.
After doing all this, Lin Yi instead fell into contemplation about the cooldown time of ’Spirit Summoning Technique’.
The skill description did not limit the number of summons, does it mean after the cooldown, he can summon again?
Thinking of this, Lin Yi couldn’t help but hold an expectant mood, waiting for tomorrow to arrive.
Since he wanted to take the first kill of the dungeon, Lin Yi took the time to return to the city and sold the useless white equipment to the shop, gaining more than 5 gold coins.
Adding to the gold picked from monsters during this period, Lin Yi now already had a dozen or so gold coins on him.
Lin Yi is probably the ’wealthiest’ person in the game right now.
But this ’wealth’ is only temporary because Lin Yi spent all his money on magic potions.
Originally, he wanted to buy some life potions, but since he had Aifula, he saved the money.
To avoid procrastination, Lin Yi decided to abandon the routine dungeon grinding, and at that time, these magic potions would come in handy.
Just as Lin Yi was buying magic potions, a heated discussion erupted on the forums once again because of him.
The reason was precisely due to that jaw-dropping leaderboard:
[Honor Points Leaderboard]
Rank____ID____Honor Points
1№___Feng Hua_____ 100
[Equipment Leaderboard]
1№: Punishment Treasure Pearl (Seal) Lv10—Epic
2№: Heart of Compassion of Fenam Lv5—Epic
3№: Celestial Wind Boots Lv4—Epic
Rank__ID___Level__Profession
1№__Feng Hua__12__Basic Spirit Summoner
2№__Divine Hall Madman_10__Basic Fire Mage
3№__Shengshi Drunkard_10__Basic Berserker
4№__Luoshen Liunian__10__Basic Fire Mage
5№__Heaven-Sent__10__Basic Thief
6№_Proud Gaze Lord_10__Basic Fire Mage
7№__Divine Hall Red Fox__10__Basic Assassin
8№__Beitang Feng__10__Basic Ice Mage
9№__Shengshi Wei Xiao__10__Basic Ice Mage
10№__Divine Hall Yingying__10__Basic Priest
Seeing this list, countless people were shocked.
Dominating the honor leaderboard is one thing, but also dominating the equipment leaderboard and looking at those three epic-level pieces of equipment, it made countless people envious.
More importantly, it was the astonishing speed of leveling up.
When major guilds were putting all their efforts to level up to 10, he was already at level 12, this kind of speed once again caused the forum to be flooded.
And in this list, what intrigued and puzzled people the most was, what profession is this ’Basic Spirit Summoner’?
Because of the appearance of this special profession, the forums once again targeted Feng Hua, launching a new round of bombardment.
Famous Clan Handsome:
"Brother Feng, you exploded again!"
Famous Clan Handsome:
"No bro, just look at the forum and you’ll know."
