Chapter 15: Wrathful Necklace
After a round of lovemaking, Ma Yingjie fell asleep again with the beauty in his arms. The high-intensity leveling in the past few days had made him mentally exhausted. After his body and mind relaxed again, sleepiness came like a leech.
This sleep was very deep and sweet. If it weren't for something that happened, Ma Yingjie didn't know how long he would have slept. This thing was~
The bed shook violently as if there was an earthquake, and then perhaps the building collapsed, the quilt on the bed disappeared, and then Lu Hao felt a gentle force dragging him under the bed. In his sleepiness, Lu Hao thought, could this be an earthquake?
"It's raining, hurry up and get up and collect the clothes." What, this earthquake was so strong that it caused a flood. What should I do? If the building collapses, there will be someone taller to hold it up, but Ma Yingjie is a landlubber and can't swim.
"What's wrong? Is there an earthquake? That's not right. What do we need clothes for if there's an earthquake?" Lu Hao sat up suddenly. When he wanted to jump off the bed, he found Ning Xiaoya, who was wearing pajamas and had long hair, staring at him triumphantly. Lu Hao immediately understood what had happened. There shouldn't be an earthquake. There hasn't been an earthquake for more than 50 years. People of Lu Hao's generation have no common sense about earthquake prevention. It must be Ning Xiaoya who is causing trouble.
Sure enough, when I opened my eyes, I saw Ning Xiaoya with a mischievous smile on her face, staring at me.
My sweet dream was disturbed, and I feel angry. Lu Hao's eyes wandered up and down Ning Xiaoya's body. Wearing pajamas, Ning Xiaoya had a kind of laziness and easy-goingness that she didn't usually have, and she was more feminine than usual. Looking at the two bulges in the pajamas, the looming body, Lu Hao's masculine symbol reacted again.
Noticing the change in Ma Yingjie's gaze, Ning Xiaoya quickly took a few steps back and kept a safe distance from Ma Yingjie: "I'm going to work soon, stop making trouble. I've prepared breakfast, and I'll get up and eat it later."
"Oh, I see. How long have I slept?" Ma Yingjie cursed inwardly that he actually fell asleep in a daze.
"It didn't take long, maybe an hour." Ning Xiaoya looked at Ma Yingjie distressedly and warned him, "Don't play games for so long in the future. It's not good for your health."
"Look at what you said. How could I be in trouble when I'm so strong? It's because you squeezed me and drained my body."
"Screw it, I have to go to work, you'll remember it later."
Ma Yingjie suddenly saw a pillow flying towards him, gradually getting bigger and bigger.
When Ning Xiaoya heard Ma Yingjie's dirty talk, she picked up a pillow and smashed it hard on Ma Yingjie's head.
Hearing the sound of Ning Xiaoya changing clothes and closing the door, Lu Hao lost his sleepiness. He put on his clothes, washed his face hastily, and started looking for the breakfast Ning Xiaoya had prepared for him.
After searching for a long time, he only found a bowl of soy milk and two fried dough sticks. While eating, Ma Yingjie said, "Didn't I work hard enough yesterday? You didn't even give me some supplements."
After finishing the tidying up, Ma Yingjie took a taxi back to his residence, put on the virtual helmet, and connected to the game.
"drop!"
A white light flashed, and Ma Yingjie appeared at the place where he went offline last time.
He easily defeated a strengthened skeleton, and then summoned a skeleton warrior to continue his upgrade.
"Ding!"
A pleasant system prompt sounded.
Your proficiency in the Weakness skill is full, and you can learn more intermediate skills.
Unable to contain my excitement, I quickly opened the skill panel. Sure enough, the proficiency of the Weakness Technique had become 1000/1000, and there was an upgradeable icon flashing behind it.
The reason why Lu Hao chose to upgrade in this way in the past few days was to practice the proficiency of his skills. God will not let down those who work hard, and he finally practiced the proficiency of the Weakness Technique to the maximum.
The proficiency of Slowness and Summon Skeleton Minions is not much different. Since Bone Shield is not used much, the proficiency is only over 100, which is still far from enough.
"confirm!"
After confirmation, the module of Weakness changed and became:
Weakness (Intermediate): Reduces various attributes of the object. If there is a buff effect, eliminate the buff effect first. The duration is 15 seconds and consumes 15 MP points.
The duration of the Weakness spell has been increased by 5 seconds, which has a good effect whether it is for upgrading or PK.
I cast a Weakness spell on a Reinforced Skeleton, and it lasted longer. I cast a Visit on the weakened Reinforced Skeleton:
[Reinforced Skeleton] (Ordinary Monster) Bones blessed by dark wizards, possessing a strong physique and simple wisdom.
Health: 1000
Attack:135
Defense: 42
Features: Physical attack with a chance of causing poison damage.
Status: Negatively weakened, various attributes reduced by 20%, duration 15 seconds.
Clear the area along the path where the monsters spawn, gradually going deeper.
There was a simple wooden house next to a mine not far away. A slight groaning sound came from it, and Ma Yingjie's heart moved. He immediately killed the enhanced skeleton in his hand and ran over.
The cabin was very simple. The rotten door panel was shaking in the wind, and the door bolt was squeaking in the wind like the sound of moaning.
Ma Yingjie pushed the door open and saw a middle-aged man dressed as a miner lying on the bed, gasping for breath, as if he would die at any time.
The middle-aged miner heard a sound nearby and tried hard to open his eyes. When he saw Ma Yingjie appear in front of him, his originally cloudy eyes showed a look of surprise.
"I never thought I'd see another human being before I die." The middle-aged miner seemed to be talking to himself: "Hello, dear adventurer. I'm a miner from the Tagar Mine. Can you do me a favor?"
"Ding~!"
System prompt: You have triggered the miner's revenge mission. Do you accept the miner's request?
Ma Yingjie immediately chose yes.
It turns out that this mine is called Tagar Mine. I wonder why it has become like this now!
"Ding~!"
System prompt: You have accepted the miner's revenge mission, which has no time limit.
"Young man, the hateful undead have occupied the Tagar Mine, and people have been killed in large numbers. The survivors have fled to other places for refuge. I was attacked by undead creatures on the way to escape, and now I can't survive. Go outside and kill a hundred reinforced skeletons and give me their heads." The middle-aged miner kept coughing as he spoke, with bright red blood flowing from the corners of his mouth.
"Okay, I'll finish it quickly." After saying that, Ma Yingjie turned and walked out of the cabin. Now he had to race against time. Who knew if this uncle would still be alive after he had beaten the skeleton with so much difficulty? If he died, who would he ask for the reward?
He cast a slow spell on a reinforced skeleton behind him, and the speed of the reinforced skeleton was significantly reduced. During this process, Lu Hao's 4 Death Lights could kill it.
"As the black light of the light of death entered the body of the strengthened skeleton, only a little blood and skin was left on the strengthened skeleton. The skeleton warrior bravely stepped forward and killed it.
"Crash!" The enhanced skeleton turned into powder not far from Ma Yingjie.
Seeing that the Enhanced Skeleton had died, nothing dropped except the copper coins equivalent to three silver coins. It turned out that it was not as simple as killing a hundred Enhanced Skeletons. There was a probability that the head would appear.
Sure enough, when the second enhanced skeleton died, in addition to the copper coins and a piece of white equipment, there was also a bloody head.
[Strengthen Skeleton's Head] (Quest item, cannot be traded or discarded.)
Additional: Items required for the Miner's Revenge mission. Collecting 100 of them will give you a handsome reward.
Ma Yingjie couldn't help but smile. How could there be blood on the enhanced skull? I wonder if the developer of this game has a problem with his brain.
Lu Hao found a good place to upgrade near the cabin. Three enhanced skeletons were refreshed here each time, and the refresh speed was very fast, which just matched Lu Hao's speed.
It must be said that this is indeed a good place to level up. A large amount of experience makes people feel excited and not tired at all. About two hours later, Ma Yingjie successfully reached level 15 and collected the heads of enhanced skeletons.
Go and hand in the task first and see what reward you get.
Ma Yingjie pushed open the door of the cabin and saw the middle-aged miner lying on the bed, not even groaning. Ma Yingjie was very anxious. Could it be that he assigned this task to him before he died? If he died, who would he ask for the reward?
"Are you okay?" Lu Hao rushed forward and pinched the miner's neck hard. Fortunately, he was still breathing, which made Lu Hao feel relieved.
"Cough cough!" The middle-aged miner coughed violently for a while, raised his head, and seemed to be much better: "Young adventurer, you are the bravest person I have ever met. You will definitely get the Medal of Light. May the God of Light protect you."
Bullshit. I'm a necromancer and I can't even enter the gate of the Holy See of Light. How can I get the Medal of Light? It's a joke. Those guys in white robes who are not doctors haven't purified me. I'd better pray to Satan to protect myself!
"I'm more concerned about what kind of reward I can get." Ma Yingjie said bluntly without beating around the bush. He was worried that if this guy died, all his efforts would be in vain.
"Haha, young people nowadays are so impatient. Well, people's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be. You can take this necklace. I hope that one day you can make a huge contribution to the light camp." This NPC, who was obviously blind, began his long speech.
"Ding!"
System prompt: You have completed the Miner's Revenge mission, gained 10000 experience points, 2 gold coins, and the equipment [Ghost Necklace], and reputation +50
[Ghost Necklace] (Green Equipment)
Reduce magic casting time by 10%
Magical damage increased by 5%
Requirement Level: 15
Required occupation: Mage
Good stuff, this can increase the efficiency of your leveling.
Ma Yingjie was a little excited, now he finally had his first green equipment. Apart from the Betrayer's Ring that he got by stepping on dog shit, his best equipment now was blue equipment.
Without saying a word, he equipped it directly and took a strengthened skeleton to do an experiment. Sure enough, the casting speed was much faster.
