Chapter 60: Great Harvest

  "System Prompt: Congratulations, player! You have completed the hidden task and will receive a reward of 700 experience points. At the same time, you will also obtain some free attribute points, five mid-level spirit stones, and one strengthening stone. Your friendship with the Blue Dye clan will increase. Hidden Task Reward: In the future, when teaming up with members of the Blue Dye clan, you will receive a buff effect that increases your attack power, defense, attack speed, and casting speed!"

  "System Prompt: Congratulations, player! You have successfully killed the BOSS! Since this BOSS was in a frenzied state, your kill evaluation will be increased. Please wait for the evaluation statistics to update. Congratulations, you have achieved an A-level kill and obtained some extra attribute points as well as 700 experience points! You will receive a silver treasure chest!"

  "System Prompt: Congratulations, player! Your level has risen to 11! You will unlock a brand new talent page, where you can learn new skills!"

  "System Prompt: Congratulations, player! Your Golden Emblem skill has leveled up! The Golden Emblem has successfully reached expert level. From now on, when you release the Golden Emblem, it will provide you with an additional fake life that lasts for 10 minutes and can replace your original HP. This fake life does not share the defensive bonuses on your body, its defense is only related to the Golden Emblem's own increased defense."

  "System Prompt: Congratulations, player! Your personal friendship with Blue Dye has been activated! The system will not provide any further explanation. Players can explore its effects on their own!"

  Happiness came too suddenly, and it made Xiao Yu feel caught off guard!

  At that time, he rushed out desperately without thinking that he could get so many benefits. At that time, it was completely a hot blood! Now it seems that good people have good rewards, and it is indeed correct not to choose to leave at that time! At the same time, he had already thought that when no one was around, he would definitely despise Xianxian ruthlessly!

  The free attribute points that Xiao Yi had been keeping previously were not added because he still hadn't thought of a direction for his future development.

  Don't look at him now as a thick-skinned meat shield, but this is not the style he wants. He prefers those high-damage occupations, standing still and chopping with BOSS is really not fun, and the requirements for treatment are also very high!

  So he plans to keep these so-called free attribute points for now and consider adding them to something after his job change at level 20.

  Five mid-grade spirit stones would naturally make him even wealthier now, and he had to save this money as he still needed to learn the advanced skills for three professions later on; buying skill books was going to be very expensive!

  The reinforced stone has been obtained, and now there are two of them. However, Xiao Yu doesn't plan to use this thing anymore. The sword in his hand is too low-level, and he doesn't like its design either. Most importantly, it was severely damaged from blocking the BOSS's attack earlier, so there's no need to repair it again.

  What made Xiao Yi feel happy was the reward he got after completing the task, which was that after forming a team with Lan Man and her tribe, they could provide him with various bonuses. Moreover, just now Xiao Yi took a look at it, this effect not only applies to Xiao Yi himself, but also Lan Man and others can enjoy this effect!

  I'm now just like a small BOSS with a halo of expertise, any chick from the Blue Vines group standing next to me is much more formidable than usual, my reputation as an expert seems to be well-deserved!

  As for his own level suddenly surpassing 10 and reaching 11, this was something Xiao Yu had not expected, but after thinking about the experience he gained, he felt it should be so.

  At that time, I was almost level 10 when fighting the BOSS. Now killing the BOSS gave a lot of experience, plus special reward experience and task completion experience. Calculating this way, it's normal for me to just reach level 11.

  As soon as he opened his own attribute panel, Xiao Yu flipped over the meridian chart on his body and added the points he had just obtained. Then, a pleasant voice appeared in his ear again.

  "Congratulations to the player for completing the foundation period meridian chart cultivation. According to the characteristics of the foundation period meridian chart, you will permanently gain an additional 3 points of physical strength and 3 points of power."

  When he heard this reward, Xiao Yi suddenly understood many things. The foundation period is self-evident, it's laying the foundation for future cultivation, making one's body stronger and more suitable for later cultivation. Therefore, this meridian chart basically increases one's physical strength and power, which is also why his current path is a bit like that of a tank.

  Later on, as the meridian diagrams become more complete, I'll start using high-damage skills. At that time, my spell damage should increase significantly, and my combat style won't be limited to close-range battles.

  Of course, on the premise that you have enough money to buy so many spellbooks to learn!

  As for the so-called Golden Emblem level upgrade, it was an unexpected delight. I didn't think that after being beaten by the BOSS so many times, there would be so many benefits. Having understood the Heart of Stone is one thing, but what Xiao Yi likes the most is still that so-called defensive skill.

  If it wasn't for the fact that I just happened to trigger the shield skill at that time, I might be dead by now!

  Because I blocked the BOSS's inevitable attack at that time, causing the BOSS to go berserk and die after a period of time. Don't look at it as a passive skill, it might just save your life at a critical moment!

  The only regret is that the fake life provided by Jingangfu cannot be equipped with defensive value addition on oneself, and can only enjoy the defensive addition provided by the skill itself.

  If he could add the total defense value on his body to his false life, then Xiao Yi would really have a lot more health! Also, it's necessary to mention the level and tier of skills. These are two different concepts.

  Each skill will be upgraded as the character's level increases, otherwise using a level 1 healing technique on a level 10 self is truly negligible.

  What is meant by level promotion refers to the fact that some effects provided by skills will be numerically enhanced as the level increases.

  To illustrate, if the healing skill is at level 3, it can provide Xiao Yi with a healing effect of 20 points per second. When it reaches level 4, it can give Xiao Yi a healing amount of 25 points per second.

  But the hierarchy is different, it won't add any value to the skills, but instead, new effects will appear, that's the difference between the two! (I didn't think of this setting before, now I'm adding it.)

  The final reward was the opening of a private friendly relationship between him and Lan Ran, but what use this thing had, Xiao Yi wasn't quite clear about, and the system didn't give any explicit explanation, saying only to let Xiao Yi explore it himself!

  Logically, this friendship value should be the same as before with the Lan Cang ethnic group. It's just a matter of waiting for the friendship value to rise and then being able to receive tasks or exchange items in Lan Dye. Could it be that after two people's friendship values have risen, Lan Dye can still develop a love that transcends species?

  Xiao Yi couldn't help but laugh at himself, wondering if he had been lacking in love lately.

  By the way, after analyzing so much, Xiao Yu is still standing in his original position with his previous posture, although it's very handsome, but now it's a bit stiff!

  Lan Ran saw that Xiao Yi was still alive and the monster had fallen at his feet, her joy overflowed as she rushed over to support Xiao Yi's swaying body, saying: "Senior, how are you? Are you okay?"

  Because his body was numb, Xiao Yu didn't notice the extra emotions in Lan Ran's words that were different from before.

  "It's nothing, it's just a loss of strength. I'm telling everyone that it's safe now, there's no more danger. How are the casualties on our side?" As the saying goes, "One can lose their head, but not their hairstyle; one can shed blood, but their leather shoes must be polished every day!" This is the time to show oneself, and Xiao Yu doesn't allow himself to slack off, even if he wants to vomit blood, he must swallow it back!

  Lan Ran looked at Xiao Yi with a grateful gaze and said: "Although everyone has been injured, there is no life-threatening danger! Thank you, senior. If it wasn't for you sacrificing yourself to block the monster's attack, we would have all perished here! To be honest, we've dragged you down, sorry senior! We don't want this place anymore, it belongs to you!"

  Xiao Yixin said: What am I supposed to do in this place? Am I really going to find a cave or something and live here?

  He waved his hand indifferently and said, "As I said before, this place belongs to you. I won't be staying here often. Besides, all of you have worked hard, how can I let you labor in vain?"

  At the sight of Lan Die, Xiao Yi felt like saying something, but he impatiently said: "Fine, just leave a place for me here, and when I feel like coming back to live, I'll come back!"

  Lan Ran was overjoyed in her heart, and she naturally took this sentence as Xiao Yi's promise to continue protecting them!

  "What's wrong with me? I'm exhausted now. You help me to the side and let me rest for a while, then you go see if your sisters need any treatment, I want to find a place to lean on!"

  "Senior, why don't you just lean on me instead? The stones on the ground are too hard!" Lan Ran exerted herself to show her concern, as she always felt that she owed Xiao Yiliang a lot.

  Looking at the soft and blue-dyed body, Xiao Yu thought for a moment before speaking: "It's not good, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I won't be able to control myself and make a mistake!" After saying this, Xiao Yu scolded himself in his heart, he didn't have any strength left on his body yet he still had lustful thoughts!

  "What's wrong?"

  "Cough cough, this question is very complicated, involving the relationship between humans and the universe. You won't understand it even if I explain it to you. Go take care of your sister, don't bother with me!"

  Xiao Yi couldn't wait to get rid of Lan Ran, firstly because if one of the Lan Ran wanted him to lean in he might have unprincipledly agreed, and secondly because he was still thinking about the silver treasure chest that the BOSS had just dropped.

  We should give him some high-end equipment, the rewards he got before plus what's in the silver treasure chest now, today is really a big harvest!
