Chapter 23

“To prevent assassins from getting close? Yes, I’ll bring it to you immediately.”

After Zhou Yi finished speaking, she immediately took out an item from her backpack. “This is for you.”

[Obscure Pearl (Accessory)]

[Equipment Level: 1-40]

[Equipment Restriction: None]

[Effect: Detects stealth units within a 50-meter radius]

When Zhang Xuan received the item, although he had already guessed that she was a rich lady, he was still a little surprised.

Putting everything else aside, accessories without level and class restrictions were worth at least a million yuan on the market. Moreover, they were priceless.

Not to mention, there was also a range detection effect.

“We’re even.”

Suppressing his emotions, Zhang Xuan put it on. Such accessories could be turned off and displayed, so he didn’t have to worry about being seen.

“Thank you for not fussing over it and treating me to food again. I’m going to continue looking for the Abyss Envoy. See you again if fate allows!”

Zhou Yi put on her mask and disappeared into stealth mode. However, from Zhang Xuan’s point of view, the invisible Zhou Yi’s exact location was displayed until she was 50 meters away.

“It’s a pity that the lucky dice can’t increase the effect of the equipment.”

If the lucky dice were also useful for equipment, Zhang Xuan would really have nothing to worry about in the future. It would be great if he could get any high-level equipment with double the effect!

But then again, how did Zhou Yi survive until now?

Zhang Xuan had almost recovered after eating. He stood up, and all the Skeleton Warriors immediately appeared beside him.

Zhang Xuan decided to clear out the monsters first since this was already the Level 13 area.

[Ding! Level 13 Ferocious Lizard killed. Experience +600]

[Ding! Level 13 Snake Eagle killed. Experience +600]

45 Bronze Skeleton Warriors were mobilized. Although the level 13 monsters had improved a lot in all aspects, to the Skeleton Warriors, it was just one more shot or one more slash.

The deeper he went, the denser the monsters became. Although this was something that ordinary professionals had to be cautious of, Zhang Xuan had no such worries.

The more monsters there were, wouldn’t it prove that he had more experience?

Therefore, the speed at which his experience bar increased didn’t slow down because of the increase in his level. After three hours, his experience had already increased by 55% by the latter half of the night.

“It’s so late. There’s actually a class changer in the forest?”

According to the information sent back by a Skeleton Warrior, a professional was teaming up to hunt monsters a thousand meters north.

Zhang Xuan moved deeper into the forest. He didn’t really want to interact with professionals he didn’t know. Coincidentally, most of the monsters nearby had been killed.

Currently, he was Level 8. If he could encounter more monsters above Level 14, he could reach Level 9 before dawn.

Even though Zhang Xuan needed to spend an entire night to level up, if it was any other professional of the same level, it would take at least three days to level up.

Speaking of this, Zhang Xuan has been thinking about a problem ever since he entered the forest. How did Zhang Anya reach Level 17 in 10 days?

He had relied on the heaven-defying system enhancement to have such a terrifying leveling speed, but relying on these wild monsters in the wild, it was obvious that it would be difficult to level up in a short period of time after reaching Level 12.

Not to mention that the second transition also required a large amount of experience.

“Could it be the Goblin King’s novice dungeon?”

After thinking about it, this was the only answer.

The Goblin King novice dungeon was the only one in the Level 10-20 area. The monsters inside could provide more EXP, and the Goblin King, as a Level 15 monster, could also provide a lot of EXP.

However, Zhang Xuan was still unable to participate in the Goblin King novice dungeon because the lowest level he could participate in was Level 12.

It seemed that he had to reach Level 12 as soon as possible. Otherwise, at this speed, he wouldn’t have much time left for the second transition.

However, as he walked, he suddenly stopped.

According to the Obscure Pearl, a stealth unit was quickly approaching him!

The orb could only show the stealth unit, but it couldn’t show whether it was a monster or a professional. However, with this speed, even a Rank 2 Assassin might not be able to possess it!

Zhang Xuan immediately summoned the Skeleton Warrior. At this moment, the stealth unit was less than 30 meters away from him.

As far as the eye could see, there was nothing in the depths of the dark forest.

10 meters!

At this moment, the Skeleton Warrior standing beside Zhang Xuan immediately entered a guard state. In the next moment, it suddenly slashed forward.

Squeak!

With a strange scream, Zhang Xuan saw blood splattering a few meters in front of him. However, he couldn’t see what kind of monster it was with his naked eye. Not only was there no deduction of HP, but there was also no relevant information on his interface!

“Kill it!”

Immediately after, the Skeleton Warrior chased after the monster and swung its saber at the spot where the blood droplets fell. Another stream of blood spurted out.

The sneaky monster that was attacked also launched a counterattack against the Skeleton Warrior. A piece of the Skeleton Warrior’s shoulder armor was bitten off.

Just this attack alone reduced the durability of the Skeleton Warrior’s armor by 1,500 points!

However, the Skeleton Warrior wasn’t to be outdone and slashed back. For a moment, the invisible monster’s figure actually vaguely appeared!

Stealth units would be forced out of stealth after taking a certain amount of damage. Reality proved that it was as Zhang Xuan had expected.

THUD!

[Health -1,000]

The Skeleton Warrior resisted the sneaky monster’s attack. This time, even the last bit of its armor durability was depleted.

Immediately after, its counterattack finally showed a notification that its HP was decreasing!

[Health -500]

The monster revealed its dark form. Zhang Xuan had also obtained information about the monster when he summoned the second skeleton soldier.

[Fury: Mutated Hidden Rat (Level 15)]

[Health: 2000/5000]

[Strength: 1000]

[Defense: 500]

[Agility: 500]

[Skills: Plague Invasion, Armor Piercing Bite]
