Chapter 15 - Chapter 15: Start the Upgrade Road and Pick Up Big Loot

Now with his ID card, Lin Ran could teleport anywhere around Tai'an City, saving him a lot of time!

Soon, Lin Ran returned to his residence!

Thinking of giving the meat buns to Bozi, he thought he'd jump for joy.

Once, he saw people from the city coming out to kill monsters, eating meat buns in the wasteland. The aroma made Bozi's mouth water. Lin Ran still remembers it vividly, years later.

But when he arrived at Bozi's residence, he found no one there and the door was locked.

It was only 7:30. How could this lazy idiot, who couldn't get up at 9 o'clock, have gone out?

The sun had risen from the west?

It wasn't until he arrived at Uncle Wu's house that Lin Ran learned the whole story!

Zhou Qingfeng had called Yue'er and Bozi away. Since they hadn't taken the test yesterday, they were undergoing emergency training!

Lin Ran couldn't help but smile. He could already imagine Bozi's bitter face.

Leaving the meat bun behind, Lin Ran no longer delayed and entered the Bermuda Forest to level up!

As if due to the university, many young people appeared on the misty outskirts of the Bermuda Forest, all beginning to level up. In a short while, Lin Ran had spotted seven or eight figures!

The outskirts were no longer suitable for Lin Ran, so he headed deeper into the forest, following the mission assigned by the exchange!

In the dark, damp bushes, the Black-bellied Snake Zone!

Black-bellied Snake Venom*1, 4 gold coins per portion!

Outside the Black-bellied Snake Zone, Lin Ran glanced over and saw numerous Black-bellied Snakes scurrying about.

The dark, luminous snake scales were crisscrossed with striking yellow stripes in a regular pattern. Just one glance gave him a tingling sensation of extreme danger.

[Black-bellied Snake (Level 7)]

[Strength: 20]

[Agility: 25]

[Spirit: 10]

[Constitution: 25]

[Skills: Poison Mist, Entanglement]

This stat is only average, far less threatening than a power-up Goblin!

Lin Ran raised his hand and summoned five undead. Each one had overwhelmingly superior stats. No combat tactics were needed, just charge!

"Go!"

Lin Ran urged the undead, each one treading through the forest as if on flat ground, at incredible speed!

The sickle swirled, effortlessly slicing a bush as thick as an adult's waist in two!

With one strike, the black-bellied snake's scales shattered.

The black-bellied snake hissed, spitting out its tongue in pain.

Some, sensing danger, tried to flee, but the undead were too fast. Three clean strikes!

In less than half a minute, the two level 7 black-bellied snakes were easily slain like toys.

[Kill a level 7 black-bellied snake, gain 140 experience points, gain 1 black-bellied snake venom]

[Kill a level 7 black-bellied snake, gain 140 experience points, gain 1 black-bellied snake venom]

Lin Ran's gaze narrowed. This was 30 less experience points than in the dungeon!

However! The two spirits quickly merged into Lin Ran's body.

[Gain the warrior spirit, energy +70 (4%)]

The undead core finally moved!

Lin Ran smiled with satisfaction.

The black-bellied snakes seemed to be communicating, emitting hissing sounds as they spat out their tongues. As if aware of the five killing gods at their doorstep, they began to act in unison.

All the black-bellied snakes emerged, densely packed, nearly thirty in number, and surrounded the undead.

Lin Ran found it amusing to watch. These beasts actually knew how to cooperate.

The latest batch of black-bellied snakes launched their coils!

The black-bellied snakes' muscles bulged, the black glow of their scales darkening, their power multiplying!

Circle after circle wrapped around the undead's body!

Looking back, the undead looked almost like a Michelin tire, tightly wrapped.

If it were a real person, they'd probably suffocate to death!

It was a pity. The undead were only skeletons, filled with an inextinguishable soul fire. They felt no pressure at all, their sickles unaffected, their speed comparable to a lawnmower, launching one snake head after another into the air.

With five undead, the pace was even faster. In just a moment, the black-bellied snakes were gone by nearly a third!

Lin Ran could only watch and wait quietly for the experience points to arrive!

And his spirit, now at 40%.

Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh. The forest still had plenty of spirit. It would be time for another level-up soon!

The black-bellied snakes seemed to realize they couldn't do anything to the undead, so they dismounted and began to spray poisonous mist!

[Poison Mist: Temporarily paralyzes enemies, slowing them by 10% and inflicting poison. HP reduction of 10/s for 10 seconds.]

The dark green poisonous mist covered a roughly one-meter radius. Twenty black-bellied snakes simultaneously released the mist, enveloping the entire area. The surrounding trees quickly withered and yellowed. The power seemed considerable!

Lin Ran retreated slightly to check the undead's stats. It was indeed suffering from the poisoning effect! A slowing effect!

The slowing effect wasn't significant; the undead's speed was too high. Even a 50% reduction would still crush them.

The poisonous mist did have some effect, directly breaking through defenses and reducing HP. However, there was no stacking effect. This HP reduction was only a little over 100 points, and Lin Ran's undead had already grown to 1050 points, a fraction of that.

The poisonous fog dissipated, and the black-bellied snakes were ripped apart, one segment at a time! Their spirits floated quietly in the air.

Only after all the black-bellied snakes were completely slain did Lin Ran slowly come over to pick up the fruit!

Over twenty spirits poured into Lin Ran's body.

The Undead Core easily broke through!

[Undead Core (Level 8) Energy 6%]

[Ordinary Undead Warrior (Level 6)]

[Strength: 120]

[Agility: 120]

[Spirit: 120]

[Constitution: 120]

Lin Ran touched the cold undead and secretly smacked his lips. Another 15 points!

Health increased to 1200!

Hmm! A little perverted!

No one would have thought that a small, 1.5-meter-tall figure with a cute appearance could harbor such terrifying power. Lin Ran obtained a total of 32 Blackbelly Snake Venoms, worth a total of 128 gold coins, which wasn't bad.

As for experience, it's been a bit slow, only reaching 48%, and the experience requirements are getting higher and higher.

Lin Ran can only hope for the level 8 wolf pack!

In the middle of the Bermuda Forest, there are two dominant forces: the wolf pack to the west, and the ghost-faced trees to the east!

These ghost-faced trees are far more powerful than those in the outer areas. They've reached level 7, all enhanced, and there are at least 50 of them. I heard there's even a ghost-faced tree king that's grown to level 8, with many tricks up its sleeve. Lin Ran doesn't want to confront them head-on just yet.

You have to pick on the weak!

The wolf pack is a good choice. If he doesn't go after them, they'll be taken away by others!

With so few resources, Lin Ran can't afford to waste them!

What Lin Ran didn't expect was that the two wolf heads had already started fighting over territory!

"What's going on!"

Lin Ran stood behind a rock that just happened to hide his figure!

Looking at the 70 or 80 wolves fighting not far away, the scene was a riot!

Two wolf kings led the charge, charging towards the opposing camp, each one a little Kalami, intent on slaughtering the other's men, then tossing them aside with unparalleled ferocity.

But since the two sides were nearly evenly matched in strength, aside from the wolf kings who could inflict casualties, the other wolves were equally matched, though they were constantly intent on biting each other's necks!

But they were all quite agile, and the pack was exceptionally united. If you caught up, a whole pack of wolves would chase and bite you, all helping you!

Soon, almost every wolf in the pack was wounded.

The wolf kings would kill a few unlucky wolves to liven things up, and then the official wolf king showdown began.

Lin Ran could indeed have taken them down, but the wolf kings sensed something was wrong and fled together!

Lin Ran couldn't chase them, but if the wolf kings were seriously injured, the situation would be different. As long as the wolf kings survived, the pack would defend them fearlessly, as if by will! An easy catch!

Besides, who doesn't love finding a great bargain?

Two Wolf King Crystal Cores are worth around 2,600 gold coins, and the wolf pelts are worth at least 500 gold coins total!

Lin Ran's eyes gleamed.

I've made a fortune!
