Chapter 149: A Bountiful Harvest



Even after eating, Xiao Jin still didn't want to sleep. She leaned lazily against the sofa with a glass of chilled sparkling wine beside her, drinking it while continuing to look at the profits from the previous world.

In addition to the 4100 points rewarded from the mission, Xiao Jin also had two bronze treasure chests and four items in his backpack. One of the chests was from a side quest, and the other was a reward from the points leaderboard. As for the four items, they were dropped by Yu Ling.

First, there was the bronze treasure chest from the side quest. Xiao Jin opened it and found three items: a familiar [Exorcism Talisman], which was very useful in supernatural dungeons; an illegible book; and a stone statue.

Xiao Jin picked up the book first.

[Fragments of a tattered scroll (1/4)]

Rank: ?

type:?】

That's all that's written above. Not only are the grade and description question marks, but even the name isn't shown. Xiao Jin can only tell that this thing seems to be an incomplete piece. To figure it out completely, he needs to find the other fragments first.

We can't rush this; who knows where the rest of the scroll might be?

Let it be!

After tossing the book back into the corner of her backpack, Xiao Jin picked up the last item. She recognized it immediately; it was the female statue that she and Han Chuan had found together on the first floor corner of the men's dormitory.

However, compared to the one seen at Linhai High School, the sinister aura in Xiao Jin's hand was much smaller, and the menacing two-headed snake on it was gone, making it look like a normal stone statue.

Substitute Statue

Grade: Purple

Type: Defense

Number of uses: once

Note: After use, the statue will absorb 80% of the damage the player receives from the next attack.

Hmm~ An item that can absorb damage.

Xiao Jin weighed the stone statue in her hand; it was quite nice. She'd use it if the boss unleashed a powerful attack.

As for the second bronze treasure chest, it was a reward for the points leaderboard. Xiao Jin opened the leaderboard and found many unfamiliar names inside.

After a casual glance, Xiao Jin closed the list. The current points ranking was not a reliable indicator. She would be very interested in studying it if the system ever created a combat power ranking.

Upon opening the treasure chest, two orbs of light appeared, one blue and one purple, and Xiao Jin's face immediately fell.

No way, they only gave two props, and one of them was even blue. Picking up the blue card, Xiao Jin took a closer look and, wow, it was a points card.

Points Card

Denomination: 200

They're really stingy; this time they're not even giving out props, just points.

Xiao Jin crushed the points card and then looked at the other purple item. It was a bronze treasure chest, after all; it couldn't be full of junk!

She picked up the prop, but when she saw what it was, Xiao Jin's eyes widened, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.

It's the size of a baseball, about two fingers thick, and a vibrant red all over. It looks like a three-dimensional maple leaf, as if it's been inflated.

Xiao Jingang had only seen this thing a short time ago; it was clearly a red maple fruit that sold for 1000 points each in the shop.

Xiao Jin: …(⊙_⊙;)…

She wanted to add another sentence to the system: it's not just stingy, it's also heartless.

A purple item has a market price of at least 1000 points. If you spin the wheel and spend 1000 points, you're guaranteed to get at least one purple item.

But this is a bronze treasure chest! How could the system be so unfair?!

Xiao Jin angrily washed the red maple fruit, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it, imagining that he was biting a dog system.

To be honest, these red maple fruits taste pretty good, sweet and sour. If I have enough points later, I'll buy some to eat as fruit. After eating, Xiao Jin closed her eyes, sensing the changes in her spiritual energy. After a while, she opened her eyes.

Sure enough, after eating the red maple fruit, she found that her superpowers did indeed improve slightly. Looking at her panel, her mental strength value had also increased to 98 points.

Speaking of superpowers, Xiao Jin can now use spatial teleportation multiple times in a row, so there's no need to worry about being drained in a short period of time. The range has also increased to twenty meters.

As for the size of the space, it is a full thousand square meters, so Xiao Jin no longer has to worry about not having enough room to store supplies!

Xiao Jin was not satisfied with the opening of the chest just now, so she was really looking forward to the items that fell from Yu Ling. At least the chests produced in the same world were much better than the ones on the leaderboard.

There were four orbs of light in total, one of which contained a familiar points card with 500 points. As usual, Xiao Jin crushed it. Then he picked up a stone from inside, looked at it, and happily placed it together with the three spirit stones he had obtained earlier.

Speaking of which, she's opened so many spirit stones, yet she hasn't offered a single spiritual energy item to show us.

The remaining two were purple props. One was a strand of black hair, about half an arm's length long, wrapped in yellow paper. The bright cinnabar on the outside of the yellow paper was somewhat blurred, giving the prop a slightly eerie and ominous feel.

[Ghost Hair]

Type: Special Paranormal Category

Number of uses: three

Cooldown time: 24h

Note: Igniting the ghost hair allows the player to disguise themselves as a vengeful ghost for one hour. Using abilities during this time will break the disguise.

This is a tool that allows Xiao Jin to blend in with the vengeful spirits without being detected. It's useful for both gathering intelligence and escaping.

However, the drawback is also obvious: once in combat, the disguise granted by [Demon Hair] will disappear.

The other prop was something familiar. Xiao Jin examined the hair clip in her hand. If she wasn't mistaken, this was the hair clip that Yu Ling used to hide the camera and completely record the entire process of Zhou Lin and the others' crimes.

Bloodstained hairpin

Type: Special Paranormal Category

Cooldown time: 10 hours

Instructions: After use, you can specify a target and drag them into the illusion. The illusion will recreate the scene of Yu Ling's death, and the person dragged in will be hunted by vengeful ghosts for 10 minutes. (Note: You can specify a maximum of one target at a time.)

After studying it for a long time, Xiao Jin finally discovered that the hairpin was both a control item and a damage item.

After using the card, Xiao Jin can designate a unit, which can be a player, NPC, monster, or vengeful ghost. Once dragged into the illusion, they will be hunted down by the vengeful ghost Yu Ling.

Xiao Jin didn't know Yu Ling's strength in the illusion. If the person who entered the illusion wasn't dead after ten minutes, they would probably be injured. Moreover, if it happened at a critical moment, locking up a dangerous BOSS for ten minutes would be a win for her.

This time, Xiao Jin was not disappointed. Each of the items that Yu Ling dropped was very useful.

Organize your system backpack. Put aside anything you don't need, and place important items in a prominent place for easy access. Also, take out the scale armor protective suit that Jian Xiuyun broke; it will take points to repair.
