Chapter 312 [(*^▽^*)]
This was something no one expected. Not only Lin Leyou, but even Xue Rui himself, who threw the talisman, was somewhat surprised, let alone the female ghost.
She was frozen in place by the talisman and couldn't move at all, but she could feel that she would be able to break free in five seconds, very soon...
Lin Leyou noticed that Fu was about to collapse, so he quickly pulled Xue Rui over to give the female ghost a couple of stabs.
However, five seconds is still a relatively short time. If Lin Leyou really wanted to kill the female ghost in a short period of time, he could certainly do it. He could simply raise the peach branch in his hand and hit her a few times.
But he still wanted to give the points to Xue Rui, since Xue Rui was more in need of points or other rewards than he was.
And so, five seconds later, the female ghost was still alive. Not only was she alive, she escaped back into the sky, rolling and wailing in the black clouds, as if she were hysterically wailing.
Their attack just now had seriously injured the female ghost.
Xue Rui suddenly blurted out, "Brother Lin, are you letting me win?"
Lin Leyou paused for a moment, then retorted, "Are you letting me win too?"
The two of them stared at each other in utter bewilderment. So the reason the female ghost was still alive was because they had both shown mercy?
Both wanted to leave the female ghost for the other to kill, but Lin Leyou felt it was unnecessary.
Xue Rui also felt that Lin Leyou didn't need to do that. If he wanted points, he just needed to participate in more dungeons.
Lin Leyou looked away. "Don't you think this female ghost is too weak?"
Xue Rui, "Perhaps it's because the number of offerings was small and the quality was low?"
It's one thing if the quantity is small, but what about the poor quality?
Okay, if it's not high, it's not high. Anyway, it's really not that high, otherwise they wouldn't have done those things before. I don't know how they got to where they are today.
Lin Leyou: "Something feels off. This female ghost should be the final boss... Hmm? No, not really?"
Xue Rui: "It definitely doesn't count. Players don't need to fight the boss in this dungeon. This female ghost is just a hidden quest."
Lin Leyou still had other ideas, "Even if it's a hidden mission, it can't be that simple, right?"
Xue Rui, "Actually...maybe it's not that simple?"
Lin Leyou thought about what had just happened, "It seems so...after all, that talisman was really amazing."
Xue Rui's eyes twitched. "It really was just a perfect match, nothing else..."
Lin Leyou: "No matter what, this is a good thing."
Xue Rui, "Here we go again!"
Lin Leyou looked up and saw the female ghost directly above them, peeking out and looking down. When he looked up, he saw a pale face about five meters above him.
It's not ugly, but it's not good-looking either.
Especially after she turned into a female ghost, she became even uglier. Lin Leyou expressed his disgust in a very subtle way, but it seems that the female ghost noticed it.
Xue Rui: "Why have you gone mad?"
Lin Leyou: "I looked up at her just now, and she was right above me. My expression might have been a little off. Do girls not accept being criticized for their appearance?"
Xue Rui was silent for a while before saying, "Female ghosts might be the same."
Lin Leyou: "So what do we do now? Run?"
Xue Rui: "No need to run, she's charging at us, let's just fight her."
Lin Leyou naturally did not object. He looked at the female ghost rushing over from a distance and subconsciously waved his left hand, but only realized which hand he had waved after he had waved it.
So it was just for a moment, the female ghost shouldn't be able to withstand it, right?
As it turned out, it was unclear whether the female ghost was truly just a hidden quest, or because the number of offerings had decreased so much, making her too weak, or because the thousand-year-old peach tree branch in his possession was simply too powerful.
The female ghost vanished immediately after being struck head-on by a peach branch, and the dark clouds above slowly disappeared, revealing the beautiful starry sky once more.
Xue Rui: "Brother Lin, this prop of yours is really amazing."
Lin Leyou, however, felt that was not the case. "It must be that when I was immobilized by the talisman, I had already caused a lot of damage. What I did just now was only the last one."
Xue Rui, "Really?"
Lin Leyou sighed, "Oh dear, I already told you to do it, but I just waved my right hand unconsciously. Sorry."
It's because he's not left-handed.
Xue Rui: "It's okay, I've got my points too."
Lin Leyou waited, but did not receive any system notification. So he received no points or item rewards for killing the female ghost, nothing at all!
Xue Rui did have some points, which is good, since he is a player after all. But this was an assist kill, so the points he got might not be many.
But Xue Rui quickly said, "2000 points? Such a weak BOSS can reward so many points? Did I get them all?"
Lin Leyou said, "That's right, I don't have any rewards here. These points are definitely for the players. It's normal that I don't have any. Don't think too much about it."
Xue Rui didn't really think too much about it, but he felt a little regretful. He wished he could give the points to Lin Leyou, but unfortunately there was no way to give them away.
There may be ways for players to send points to each other, but what about between players and NPCs?
Lin Leyou patted him on the shoulder, "Alright, I don't care about this."
Xue Rui finally calmed down completely. "Then I'll make it up to Brother Lin next time."
Lin Leyou nodded, "Okay, I'll wait."
There doesn't seem to be much to say now, after all, we've been sitting together for quite a while, and the time we've spent together this time is actually quite long.
It doesn't seem to make any difference if we continue sitting here.
Xue Rui said goodbye shortly after, "Then I'll head back now. I'll come find you again next time, Brother Lin, okay?"
Lin Leyou: "No problem."
He stood there waiting for Xue Rui to leave, and only after his figure disappeared did Lin Leyou show a slightly disappointed expression.
However, he soon lost his leisure time. Just as he was putting the peach branch in his hand into his backpack, he suddenly discovered that there was something extra in his backpack.
"What is this?! This..."
"System notification: Congratulations, resident, you have obtained a random talent card. Do you wish to use it?"
After hearing this prompt, Lin Leyou stood there hesitating for several minutes before finally saying, "Use it."
"System notification: Talent card activated. Congratulations to resident Lin Leyou for obtaining the passive talent Attack Enhancement. From the moment you obtain this talent, all your attacks will deal double damage!"
After seeing the talent on this talent card, Lin Leyou was stunned for a moment. Was this talent a combat type or a support type?
After much deliberation, Lin Leyou finally decided that this was a talent that aided in combat, not a combat-type talent. However, he really liked the fact that it doubled the power of any attack.
From now on, with the cursed dagger, what used to be a two-hit kill will now be eliminated, requiring only one hit.
Lin Leyou stared intently at his newly acquired talent, eager to try it out, but there wasn't a soul in sight, let alone a ghost.
Moreover, even if the villagers saw the female ghost come here, it would take them several hours to find her by traveling along the mountain roads in the middle of the night.
Now that the female ghost is dead and Xue Rui has gone back, what is he still doing here?
Lin Leyou didn't waste any time and left the instance. He had no intention of revealing his second new talent to the public.
Having learned his lesson from Jiangxia, he'll definitely keep this talent hidden, and won't tell anyone except... right, except Xue Rui.
Even Qin Xingyu and Lin Wanyi didn't say anything; they had to keep it hidden. He had a premonition that this talent might not be just the auxiliary talent he thought it was.
All attacks deal double the damage. This applies to all attacks, including normal attacks and weapon/item attacks. The power remains the same, but the damage is doubled!
However, there is one drawback: this is a passive skill, which means that as long as the action is defined by the user as hitting or attacking, the damage will be doubled.
So, will Qin Xingyu still be able to attend training?
I'm definitely going! So what if my attacks deal double damage? As long as he's a little careful and doesn't kill anyone.
Moreover, Qin Xingyu has only been playing around with me so far, and he has always been looking forward to becoming stronger.
Lin Leyou felt exhausted when he thought of Qin Xingyu. He thought, "When Qin Xingyu gets stronger, I'll definitely beat him up for days on end."
Lin Leyou left the instance and returned to his home in the Happiness Community.
When he opened the door, he didn't see anyone inside, but the room was very clean, with everything in its proper place, and it was very tidy.
The most important thing for him now is to close the door and rest on the sofa.
Not long after Lin Leyou lay down, perhaps he had just fallen asleep, he was woken up by his phone ringing. He picked it up impatiently and said "hello" in a very rude manner.
The person on the other end of the phone probably thought Lin Leyou was grumpy in the morning, so they spoke in a gentle tone, "Little You..."
Lin Leyou didn't immediately recognize who was speaking, but there weren't many people calling him Xiaoyou; it seemed that only Jiangxia Li had done so far.
"It's you? Is there something you need?"
Jiang Xiali was somewhat surprised. "Are you sleeping? Did I disturb you?"
Lin Leyou: "I just got back from a mission and I need to rest. I didn't know it was you who contacted me. I just wanted to ask if you were having any trouble?"
Jiang Xia blinked. "It's nothing serious, I just wanted to meet up with you, go out for a walk, see a movie or something, what do you think?"
Lin Leyou felt very uncomfortable. A walk and a movie? What kind of talk is this? Isn't this something couples say? How could this be… How could this happen in Jiangxia Lane…
Lin Leyou had no other thoughts after seeing Jiang Xiali's antics; he just needed to ignore Jiang Xiali completely, and even...
