Looking at Ye Gubai in Versailles, everyone felt helpless.
Kill the tree spirit?
Indeed, anyone can enter this adventure-level dungeon.
But who has such high skill that they can go all over the map killing those tree spirits that they don't need to pay any attention to?
It's already extremely difficult to complete the game, so trying to kill those tree spirits would be counterproductive.
If they complete the game normally without killing the tree spirits, it will take them several hours.
If we were to kill all the tree spirits again, it would take three to five days to emerge, which goes against the idea of leveling up quickly.
Of course, this method is not ineffective.
It can indeed be useful for some exceptionally capable individuals.
Therefore, even though the two officials felt uncomfortable, they couldn't bring themselves to say anything to blame them.
After all, Ye Gubai didn't hide anything and told everything straightforwardly, only in a somewhat outrageous way.
“These methods, sigh…” an official recorder sighed.
"That's all for now, thank you for your cooperation, Ye."
"This is a reward from the country for your answer; please accept it."
Another staff member took out an item and placed it on Ye Gubai's table.
The two then said their goodbyes and left.
Upon seeing this, the teacher who was traveling with them immediately stood up to greet them.
Only Shang Xianzhi did not get up, but politely said "Take care".
After they left, Shang Xianzhi looked at Ye Gubai and said, "You didn't suffer any injustice, did you?"
Ye Gubai was taken aback, then shook his head.
What's there to feel aggrieved about? It's not like it's an interrogation.
"That's good." Shang Xianzhi stopped talking and continued to sip her tea.
This puzzled Ye Gubai, who wondered what Ye Gubai was thinking.
However, since Shang Xianzhi remained silent, Ye Gubai was too lazy to say anything more.
They sat down together and started drinking tea.
His composed demeanor caused Shang Xianzhi to fall silent.
Wow, he's so young and he can really endure so much.
Seeing him sitting here, he could sit there with such a calm expression.
He had originally planned to wait for Ye Gubai to speak first before telling the whole story.
It seems that if I don't say anything, Ye Gubai might just leave me here to eat by himself when he gets hungry.
"Ahem, Xiao Ye!~"
After thinking for a while, Shang Xianzhi finally spoke first.
As soon as Ye Gubai heard the opening words, he sensed that something was wrong.
This tone is usually used when someone needs something from you.
Shang Xianzhi is of such a high rank and holds an important position.
If he makes demands of himself, wouldn't that be a lot of trouble?
Seeing Ye Gubai remain silent, Shang Xianzhi continued.
“I have a daughter who will be taking the college entrance exam next year and becoming a professional.”
"Her grades are outstanding, and she will definitely be admitted to Tianlong Academy."
"In short, she will be your junior in the future."
"Haha, what I was thinking was, if you have enough time, could you help her level up too?"
Shang Xianzhi's words left Ye Gubai feeling helpless.
Good grief, it's after my leveling speed.
Ye Gubai even had some doubts: could the woman Shang Xianzhi mentioned be his own granddaughter?
Otherwise, why would they care so much?
Seeing Ye Gubai hesitate, Shang Xianzhi understood perfectly.
After all, his demands were indeed a bit excessive, even if they were reasonable.
If you're not related to someone, how can you get their agreement just by talking?
My own old face?
Shang Xianzhi was certainly not that stupid; he had his own confidence to say such a thing.
"With your strength, you shouldn't lack anything in terms of level or equipment."
"However, I have something here that I'm sure you'll be interested in."
After speaking, Shang Xianzhi took something out of her backpack and placed it on the table.
This item is extremely special; it is a very peculiar heart.
The heart is not very big, about the size of a palm.
Its exterior is covered in demonic energy, even though this thing no longer has a physical body to supply it.
It can also throb there on its own, displaying its surging vitality.
"What is this?" Ye Gubai asked in confusion.
"You can take a look first, and if you find it useful, then consider my request," Shang Xianzhi said confidently.
This demonic heart has quite a background.
It was obtained when a foreign country was in turmoil and its city was besieged by demons.
That small country was powerless to resist the invasion of monsters, so it sought help from all over the world.
Shang Xianzhi also participated in the operation, thanks to her high skill level of 60 and outstanding abilities.
Shang Xianzhi and a group of professionals killed the final siege boss.
That nightmare-like monster dropped many items.
Because Shang Xianzhi was closer, she managed to grab two items.
One of them is this unique heart.
————
Demon Source Heart
Type: Props
Quality: Myth
Level: 1
Effect: Grants unparalleled enhancement upon use, but at a cost...
Description: This item is dropped by the final demon god during the siege; it is unique and irreplaceable.
———
After reading the item's description, Ye Gubai was somewhat puzzled.
Neither the effects nor the costs were described in the introduction.
What was the point of him watching it...?
"What's the use of this?" Ye Gubai asked, puzzled.
Upon seeing this, Shang Xianzhi laughed and, without keeping him in suspense any longer, began to explain in detail.
It turned out that one of the two items he obtained was a description of the fallen objects.
The description contains information about this demonic heart.
This item has a very special effect; after the user uses it, it can permanently enhance all aspects of their attributes.
Whether it's health, defense, or attack power, everything can be improved.
Moreover, it also provides an opportunity for career advancement ahead of schedule.
However, there is a fatal flaw: after using this heart, the user will experience some unusual symptoms.
For example, when entering combat mode, demonic energy will emanate from their body.
The overall impression it gives is like that of a demon.
Furthermore, one must undergo a series of tests before using this heart.
After the heart is used, the user's consciousness will enter a special space.
If you fail the test, you will die in reality.
The content of the test was not described in the introduction.
It's simply described as a near-death experience; in short, it's extremely difficult.
After obtaining the heart, Shang Xianzhi also considered using it herself.
However, he feared he would fail the test and die in it.
That's why it has been preserved to this day.
Seeing how powerful Ye Gubai is, they decided to take out this item to see if Ye Gubai dares to accept it.
"How much is this attribute being improved?" Ye Gubai asked the crucial question.
If the improvement is too small, it's better not to do it at all.
After all, this is dangerous, and it would be a huge loss if I died during the test.
