Chapter 17
Undead Series
“Secret realm???”
Su Jiner nodded and said, “Yes, did you notice that the monsters we encountered just on this path are of a higher level than those in Deadman’s Canyon?”
“Although I don’t know why the system guided you through this path, if I wasn’t here earlier, that iron-armored nether spirit would have beaten you up,” Su Jiner said with a strange expression.
“By that time, don’t say you can’t reach Deadman’s Canyon, you might end up becoming a dead person yourself.”
Hearing Su Jin’er’s words, Mo Xiao nodded thoughtfully and said, “Looks like I’ll have to take a detour.”
“Yeah, but why would a level 5 player like you go to Deadman’s Canyon? It’s a level 15 map…” Su Jiner didn’t finish her sentence and suddenly paused, looking at the spot where the iron-armored nether spirit had fallen earlier, muttering to herself:
“I almost forgot, your attack power is particularly high, so killing monsters 10 levels above shouldn’t be too difficult for you.”
Hearing Su Jin’er’s words, Mo Xiao nodded slightly and said, “In that case, I’ll take my leave first.”
“Eh, wait! Don’t leave! Why are you in such a hurry?” Seeing Mo Xiao getting up and leaving, Su Jiner quickly followed, “You’ve helped me so much, and I haven’t repaid you yet!”
Mo Xiao’s mouth twitched at her words, “If you’re going to offer yourself as a reward, I’ll pass. I still need to level up.”
“Oh, that was just a joke! How about I accompany you to level up?” Su Jiner quickly suggested.
“You already have the items for class advancement, aren’t you going to change your profession?” Mo Xiao looked at her speechlessly.
It seemed that the phrase “big boobs but no brains” was very accurate.
Su Jiner paused for a moment upon hearing his words. She had been stuck in this place for a long time because of the problem of changing professions.
To her, the most important thing now was to change her profession.
“Anyway, we’re friends now, so if I need anything, I’ll come to you,” Mo Xiao said indifferently. “I’ll take my leave now.”
With that, Mo Xiao left without even looking back, leaving Su Jiner alone in the swirling wind.
Watching Mo Xiao’s retreating figure, Su Jiner was dumbfounded.
Instinctively, she lowered her head and looked at her figure that could drive countless young men crazy. Normally, anyone else would stick to her like glue, but this guy actually said he would run and he did. It was a serious blow to Su Jiner’s self-confidence.
“Is there something wrong with my charm? Is he a lolicon or something?”
Standing in place for a while, Su Jiner suddenly chuckled. “He’s quite an interesting little guy. Since he seems to be a lone player, maybe I can give him a little something.”
Saying that, Su Jiner took out an ancient sheepskin scroll.
As the sheepskin scroll opened, an extremely intricate magic array instantly appeared at her feet.
Suddenly, a blue beam of light shot up into the sky, and Su Jiner disappeared on the spot.
…
Half an hour later, at the end of the Nether Mountain Range.
Mo Xiao sat quietly on a giant rock, looking at the brand new skills on his panel.
[Soul Harvest: The souls of the creatures you kill will become your power! Every one hundred souls will randomly convert into one attribute point.]
“Every 100 souls? I wonder if I’ll get more souls for killing higher-level monsters. If not, maybe I can fulfill this condition by slaughtering low-level monsters.”
Mo Xiao was filled with doubts at this moment. Although this was indeed a divine skill, the skill was not explained clearly at all, especially regarding the situation with souls.
If killing low-level monsters would work, all Mo Xiao had to do was spend a night grinding in the newbie leveling area, and he would become invincible.
“It seems like I’ll have to think about it carefully.”
Just as Mo Xiao sighed deeply, a system notification suddenly sounded.
Mo Xiao raised an eyebrow upon hearing the sound. “An email? Is the game compensating for something?”
Muttering to himself, Mo Xiao opened his mailbox.
Su Jin’er: I’m not sure how to repay you, but I remember you’re a lone player, right? I went through the warehouse earlier and found some exclusive equipment that I used in the past but never had the heart to sell. I’m giving them to you as a gift, hoping it can help you out~
PS: This doesn’t count as repayment! It’s just a gift from me to you!
PPS: My life is not something that can be repaid with such trivial things!
[Obtained equipment: Death Staff (Blue).]
[Obtained equipment: Death Robe (Blue).]
[Obtained skill book: Skeleton Soldier Summoning (Blue).]
“These… are all blue items??” Mo Xiao’s excitement surged as he looked at the three items that entered his backpack.
For others, blue items weren’t particularly great.
But for Mo Xiao, blue equipment was equivalent to orange equipment!
[You rubbed the Death Staff, and it transcends into the Undead Staff!
[You rubbed the Undead Staff, and it transcends into the Necromancer’s Staff!]
[You rubbed the Death Robe, and it transcends into the Undead Robe!]
[You rubbed the Undead Robe, and it transcends into the Necromancer’s Robe!]

“350 points?!” Seeing this number, Mo Xiao’s eyes instantly widened. This was more than three times the attack power of his lord’s longsword!
Only then did Mo Xiao realize that this equipment could only be used at Level 15.
He was only level 5, but with the additional 10 levels granted by the Solo Player passive, he could just equip it.
Obviously, Su Jiner had already understood his skills; otherwise, she wouldn’t have given this to him.

“Although this Skeleton Lord isn’t as exaggerated as the Fire Dragon God, it looks especially useful… A meat shield-type summon?”
