Chapter 7
The Golden Treasure Chest
Mo Xiao looked at the chattering crowd beside him.
The veins on his temples couldn’t help but throb.
Without thinking, he pushed aside the onlookers and gave them a cold glance, instantly silencing everyone.
Seeing everyone shut up, Mo Xiao let out a sigh of relief.
He slowly walked to Jiang He.
Awkwardly, he looked in another direction and said, “Thank you, consider this as a token of gratitude.”
Before Jiang He could say anything, Mo Xiao directly handed her a fruit and a longbow.
“A green-tier mystic iron bow? Seems pretty good…” Jiang He looked at the mystic iron bow in her hand with some surprise.
“Wow! A spiritual fruit that permanently increases attributes?! Is he really this generous? He’s giving it to you?” At that moment, a figure rushed to Jiang He’s side, his expression suddenly changing, and he asked seriously:
“Could it be that this guy has taken a liking to you?”
Hearing this, Jiang He’s face blushed slightly, and she weakly shook her head, saying, “Don’t talk nonsense. His initial weapon was a gift from me. He’s just returning the favor.”
“You gave it to him? That’s not possible, right? The bow he was using before was an orange-tier weapon!” Jiang Shan exclaimed in surprise.
“Orange-tier? Maybe he got lucky and looted it from a monster. Uncle, you know about the situation in the Mo family, don’t you?” Jiang He asked with furrowed brows.
As soon as the words “Mo family” were mentioned, Jiang Shan’s expression instantly changed. “I see… so that’s how it is.”
Meanwhile, Mo Xiao casually found a corner and excitedly rubbed the loot dropped by the mutant elite from earlier.
[You rubbed the Giant Ape Bone, and it sublimated into Hardened Giant Ape Bone (can be used for crafting blue-quality weapons and equipment)!]
[You rubbed the Giant Ape Fur, and it sublimated into Sturdy Giant Ape Fur (can be used for crafting blue-tier weapons and equipment)!]
[You rubbed the Fruit of Vitality, and it sublimated into the Beginner Physique Fruit (permanently increases physique by five points!)!]
[You rubbed the Silver Treasure Chest, and it sublimated into the Golden Treasure Chest!]
“Increase by five points! I hope the drop rate of the Spirit Fruit isn’t too low. I need to find a way to collect more of these!” Mo Xiao was very satisfied as he stuffed the Physique Fruit into his mouth, his gaze fixed on the Golden Treasure Chest in front of him.
Mo Xiao had no interest in materials for crafting equipment since he wasn’t a blacksmith.
[Golden Treasure Chest unlocked! Congratulations, you obtained the Lucky Medal!]
“Hmm? What is the Lucky Medal?”
[Lucky Medal: When worn, you feel very lucky, with a chance to increase the base drop rate.]
“Increase the base drop rate? It doesn’t seem very useful, does it?” Mo Xiao murmured. “Anyway, let me rub it first.”
If anyone else heard him say this, it would definitely provoke their anger.
It should be noted that in this world fused with the game, besides experience gain, the drop rate determines the speed of becoming stronger.
[You rubbed the Lucky Medal, and it sublimated into the Plunder Medal!]
[Plunder Medal: Increases drop rate by 10%! If a monster has special items, they will definitely drop!]
“Definitely drop?! That’s amazing!”
Upon seeing these four words, Mo Xiao’s eyes instantly lit up.
Although Mo Xiao wasn’t sure about the specifics of this world, based on his years of gaming experience!
In the future, if there were quests or something, they would definitely require collecting specific items.
Without wasting any time, Mo Xiao quickly equipped the medal and opened the character panel.
After all, gaining two levels in a row, some adjustments to the attributes were necessary.
[Character Panel]
Name: Mo Xiao
Level: LV5 (0/7000)
Class: Solo Player
Strength: 51 (+10) = 61
Agility: 37 (+50) = 87
Spirit: 34
Endurance: 30
Physique: 35
Available attribute points: 20 points
Skills: Equipment Mastery, Skill Mastery, Thunderfall, Between the Hurricanes, Full Force Strike, Savage Power, Thousand Catties Force.
Talents: Just a Rub, Advanced Reaction Enhancement, Lightning Speed.
“It seems with Lightning Speed, I don’t need to worry about agility anymore,” Mo Xiao said, satisfied with his panel.
As he spoke, Mo Xiao added 10 attribute points to Strength. The remaining 10 points were evenly distributed to Spirit and Endurance.
Saying that, Mo Xiao allocated ten attribute points to strength, and the remaining 10 points were evenly distributed between spirit and endurance.
Although spirit represented magical power, it seemed to have little use for him at the moment since none of his current skills, except for Hurricane Arrow, required mana consumption.
But Mo Xiao was, after all, a solo player, and magic would definitely be present in the future!
It was better to be prepared.
“I wonder if I can leave the city now to level up.” Mo Xiao slowly got up after organizing his equipment.
Just as he was contemplating what to do next, a nauseatingly familiar voice sounded in Mo Xiao’s ears once again.
“Well, well, well, if it isn’t our S-class job holder, Mo Xiao! Why are you hiding in a place like this?”
Hearing the voice, Mo Xiao’s gaze turned slightly cold as he looked up and saw Su Wei accompanied by two unfamiliar men.
From the situation, it seemed that Su Wei had hired bodyguards to help him level up.
Mo Xiao glanced at him and calmly said, “A good dog doesn’t block the way.”
“What did you say!” Hearing this, Su Wei’s expression suddenly changed and he said angrily.
“I told you to get lost,” Mo Xiao said very calmly.
Seeing Mo Xiao like this, Su Wei immediately yelled in exasperation.
“Say that again if you have the guts! I’m a lightning mage! Say that again if you dare! Believe me, I’ll strike you down with lightning!”
“Pointless,” Mo Xiao sighed and glanced disdainfully at Su Wei, no longer paying attention to the three of them. With a shoulder push, he directly knocked Su Wei aside. With a strength value of seventy, Su Wei was no match for him.
As Mo Xiao walked away, Su Wei stomped his feet in anger, while the two men beside him shifted their gazes to the bow of stars on Mo Xiao’s back.
Just as Su Wei was about to chase after him, the two men suddenly stopped him.
“What are you doing? How dare you stop me!” Su Wei angrily shouted.
The two men quickly shook their heads and said, “Young Master, with your current level, you’re no match for him at all.”
“What?! I’m a Lord of Magic!! And the highest damaging lightning mage! He’s just a solo player!! He doesn’t even have any skills!! Why am I not his match?!”
Su Wei was on the verge of exploding when he heard the two men’s words. He angrily yelled, “Even you two dare to turn against me! Believe me, I’ll deduct your salaries!”
“Please calm down, Young Master. It’s not that we’re turning against you,” the two men quickly reassured with bitter smiles. “It’s just that, look at the bow on his back. That’s an orange-tier weapon!”
On hearing this, Su Wei was initially stunned, then widened his eyes in disbelief and exclaimed, “What?! An orange-tier weapon?!!! That’s impossible!”
