Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

A level 350 boss might not have given him an over-leveled kill reward, but the loot had to be insane.

He’d already spotted four orange glows!

“Did this drop from Mo You’s staff?”

“But… level 199…”

Jiang Cheng was left speechless.

Level 199 – how long would it take to reach that?

Jiang Cheng remembered that in Mythic, the player level cap was 100, and it took about three years to reach it.

Back then, he usually only leveled to 50, which was enough to enter the Ladder.

Now that the Great Wasteland had opened up to level 199, how many years would that take?

Plus, there was the Elemental Mage class restriction.

The Holy Light Sovereign’s stats were insane, godly even, but it had to be usable first.

Even if he gave it to Mo You, he couldn’t use it.

Jiang Cheng regretfully stashed it away.

For now, this gear could only gather dust in A Silly Cutie’s inventory.

After eyeing these four pieces of gear, Jiang Cheng couldn’t be bothered to look further.

They were all level 199, so there was no point in drooling over them now.

However, a tiny brooch caught his eye.

This brooch was ordinary, crudely made, but the occasional ethereal light from its tip made Jiang Cheng feel something was off about it.

【Hecate’s Brooch】

Quality: ???

Overview: ???

Jiang Cheng had never seen gear with all question marks before.

This wasn’t an unidentified item, nor was it special equipment. Could it really be just an ordinary brooch?

Jiang Cheng didn’t buy it.

Because the name Hecate was anything but ordinary.

She was a figure from mythology.

Known as the Goddess of Night, she was also the goddess of ghosts and magic.

One of the earliest gods, one of the creators of the world.

Representing the dark side of the world.

Though he didn’t know its use, Jiang Cheng still pinned it to his cloak.

Useful or not, keeping it was the smart move.

“Two skill books as well?”

Jiang Cheng’s heart leaped as he quickly checked them out.

【Three Thousand Spell Chants】

Quality: Legendary

Skill Type: Ultimate

Skill Level: 100

Class: Necromancer

Overview: Consumes 5,000 MP. When used, summons three thousand underworld runes, dealing 3,000% of your Spell Attack as area damage within a 3,000 x 3,000 meter range.

【Heart-Losing Talisman】

Quality: Legendary

Skill Type: Active

Skill Level: 50

Overview: Seals the target’s spells, reducing their defense by 100+15%.

“The Heart-Losing Talisman has no class restriction. Looks like I can learn it after level 50.”

Jiang Cheng felt a spark of excitement.

As for Three Thousand Spell Chants, although it was an ultimate skill, there wasn’t much point in discussing it now.

“Hmm? Two more guild establishment tokens?” Jiang Cheng found another guild establishment token while searching the corpses of the Blade Guard and Demon Guard.

“Looks like these guild establishment tokens can fetch a sky-high price.”

He was in desperate need of gold coins right now.

Mo You’s death only dropped 30 gold coins, which didn’t help at all with his increasing gold coin demands.

These guild establishment tokens came at just the right time.

After level 40, the auction house would open.

When that time came, throwing the guild establishment tokens into the auction house would surely drive countless guilds into a frenzy.

After all… from today onwards, the Blood Hell Forbidden Land would truly become a forbidden land…

Except for Cutie Shakes the World and Fist Dominates Mountains and Rivers, other guilds would have to rely on luck to get guild establishment tokens from other bosses.

The drop rate for guild establishment tokens in the Blood Hell Forbidden Land was about 0.1% for level 30 bosses.

1% for level 40.

10% for level 50.

20% for level 60.

And in other places, the drop rate for bosses of the same level would be further divided by 10.

Bosses were already hard to defeat, requiring a lot of energy, time, and money, and the difficulty was particularly high.

With such low drop rates, the Temple would probably have to wait until players were generally around level 50 to establish a guild.

After collecting all the dropped equipment, Jiang Cheng frowned slightly.

Because there wasn’t enough space.

His cloak only had 30 slots, and it couldn’t store equipment. All his equipment was worn on his body.

He’d always talked about enhancing the cloak, but he always had other needs, resulting in not enough enhancement points. Now, he had 210,000 enhancement points left, which he could use freely.

[Spent 300 enhancement points, cloak enhancement successful, cloak capacity increased by 10 slots.]

[Spent 600 points…]

…

[Spent 5,000 enhancement points, cloak enhancement successful, cloak capacity increased by 100 slots, breakthrough evolution triggered.]

[Spent 10,000 enhancement points, 10 gold coins, breakthrough evolution successful, cloak evolved into Wind of Misfortune.]

【Wind of Misfortune】

Quality: Rare

Attack Speed +15%

Blade of Misfortune: Can store the exclusive weapon Frost Disaster – Blade of Misfortune. Each time you draw the weapon from the cloak, it reduces the first target hit’s defense by 100 points for 5 seconds.
Overview: A cloak that can store 120 items, carrying a hint of ominous aura.

“Not bad, an unexpected gain.” Jiang Cheng was delighted.

He found that this time, the cloak had finally upgraded from only being able to store potions and gems to being able to store equipment.

This trip to the Blood Hell Forbidden Land could be called a great harvest.

Not only did his level increase to 42, his total Evolution Points reached 52 million, and he earned 860,000 Enhancement Points.

Although after using them, he only had 46 million Evolution Points and 230,000 Enhancement Points left, this was absolutely a huge gain.

Moreover, he had plundered the overpowered skill Demon Lord’s Descent.

There were also so many pieces of equipment and skill books, as well as a powerful mage subordinate. It couldn’t get any better.

*Boom! Boom! Boom!*

Just as Jiang Cheng finished picking up all the equipment and potions, a deafening sound suddenly came from the distance.

The ground also transmitted regular tremors.

The air was filled with a murderous aura.

Jiang Cheng’s brow furrowed as he quickly retreated, “This killing intent, it must be the Killing God’s Thousand Army.”

“We need to leave quickly.”
