Xiao Jin was now rich and powerful, and he readily spent a mere 200 points. Immediately afterwards, the hole on the shoulder of the scale armor began to repair itself little by little, and it was soon restored to its original state.

After changing his clothes, Xiao Jin's hand involuntarily touched his shoulder, and then he suddenly bared his teeth.

Tsk~ This bastard, he really holds a grudge!

Immediately, Xiao Jin's expression turned icy cold, like frost suddenly falling in winter. Her eyes were sharp as knives, and shards of ice flew out incessantly.

Next time I see him, I'll definitely kill him!

As Xiao Jin continued packing the items in her backpack, she suddenly noticed something below that seemed to be flashing.

Xiao Jin was puzzled and took out the glowing object, which turned out to be the bone whistle that Lu Jing had given her.

They were assigned to the same dormitory room. This guy pretended to thank her for saving his life and gave Xiao Jin a small prop. She casually stuffed the prop into her backpack and forgot about it. Now, how come it's glowing?

After thinking it over, since the carriage was absolutely safe, Xiao Jin decisively activated the bone whistle.

A sudden burst of light appeared, and the bone whistle, as if drawn by an invisible force, slowly broke free from Xiao Jin's tightly clenched hand, finally hovering in the air.

At that moment, the air seemed to freeze, the temperature around us plummeted, and even breathing carried a faint chill.

The bone whistle began to tremble violently, each vibration accompanied by a subtle yet clear hum. Then, a rich green light burst forth from within the bone whistle, enveloping everything around it in a mysterious and eerie green glow.

Just as the light was at its brightest, a sound suddenly came from beneath the floor, and then a blurry, tall silhouette slowly rose from the crack in the floor.

As the outline of the other party gradually became clear, a huge skeleton, more than two meters tall and covered in tattered armor, appeared before Xiao Jin's eyes. The pale white bones were smooth and the armor was dark black. In the sunken eye sockets, two eerie green flames flickered incessantly, like the deepest gaze from the underworld, making people afraid to look directly at it.

The skeleton held an enormous, gleaming sword, and Xiao Jin stood face to face with it.

The next second, Xiao Jin suddenly frowned slightly, because when she tried to control the skeleton, she found that she did not get a response, and the other party did not seem to listen to her.

A sense of "I knew it" flashed through Xiao Jin's mind. She had felt that Lu Jing was up to no good, but she didn't know what he wanted to cause trouble for. Now she understood. So that's what it was!

Immediately afterward, just as Xiao Jin had guessed, the skeleton ignored Xiao Jin's control and slowly raised the large sword in its hand. The sword, carrying a whistling sound that tore through the air and boundless killing intent, came straight at Xiao Jin.

In an instant, the air seemed to freeze. Xiao Jin stood still, surrounded by an indescribable calmness and composure, his arms crossed over his chest, a disdainful smile playing on his lips.

Facing that sinister and terrifying skeleton wielding a giant blade, she showed no intention of backing away.

Just as the greatsword was about to touch Xiao Jin's body, an unexpected event occurred. The skeleton's movements suddenly froze in mid-air, and its originally fierce and unparalleled attack vanished into nothingness in that instant.

Then, the skeleton's body, made of piled bones, began to slowly dissipate, like a sketch being erased, being wiped away little by little from top to bottom.

This horrifying scene unfolded right before Xiao Jin's eyes. Her expression changed from relaxed to somber, and a thousand thoughts raced through her mind in an instant.

The system is indeed very dangerous.

However, they also said that the carriage was an absolutely safe place, which is why Xiao Jin was so fearless just now. She also wanted to see what would happen if the other party attacked her.

In fact, this result was somewhat unexpected for Xiao Jin!

Meanwhile, in the simple large bed, Lu Jing, with his hair slightly upturned, was fast asleep with his eyes closed.

Suddenly, he abruptly opened his eyes and sat up, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes. After a moment, Lu Jing seemed to sense something, and suddenly raised an eyebrow and smiled.

He then relaxed, leaning lazily against the headboard, one arm draped over his knee, and with the other hand, he brought up the control panel and began typing in Xiao Jin's chat box.

[Lu Jing: Did you like the surprise I gave you?]

Lu Jing immediately sent the message, still smiling as he did so. He wondered what Xiao Jin's expression would be; he thought the other party wouldn't notice, but it turned out he'd been exposed so quickly!

But the next second, Lu Jing's smile froze on his face.

There was a reply in the chat box, but it wasn't the answer he had imagined.

[Ding—System notification: You are not yet this player's friend~]

…………

After a week of rest, Xiao Jin had adjusted her mindset and was ready to tackle the new game instance.

As usual, before entering the game, she replenished her inventory of recovery items. Meanwhile, all the recovery items in the system shop were labeled 'This item can restore the player's health points'.

Xiao Jin guessed that this Qi and Blood value should be the amount of blood.

Regarding items, the Obsidian Ring she had just bought for one world was destroyed, so she needed to buy another one. After browsing the shop, Xiao Jin took a liking to two items.

One of them is called "Silver Starry Sky," which is a necklace-type defensive item. It is shaped like a transparent silver quicksand star, adorned with fine shimmer, and is very beautiful.

After use, it forms a layer of crystalline skin on the body's surface, greatly increasing defense. The cooldown time is only ten minutes; when Xiao Jin saw it, he thought he was seeing things.

But as she scrolled further, she discovered that this was actually a rare spiritual energy item, priced at a whopping 2100 points, and consuming 5 points of spiritual energy per minute after activation. In other words, as long as Xiao Jin had enough spiritual energy, she could keep it active indefinitely.

Upon discovering the item, Xiao Jin immediately messaged Mao Liu, asking him to search for the necklace in the store. Just as Xiao Jin expected, Mao Liu couldn't find it.

Hoping for a chance encounter, Xiao Jin sent the message to Han Chuan, and he gave the same answer.

This means that only when a player becomes a psionicist will psionic items occasionally appear in the shop, and the type and abilities of the items are random.

Xiao Jin immediately went through the items in the shop again, and apart from the [Silver Starry Sky], he didn't see a second spiritual energy item.

So she placed the order without hesitation, otherwise she might not be able to find it again!

As for the other item, considering that his current attack methods were somewhat limited and he seemed to lack ranged attack options, Xiao Jin made a supplement to that.
