While Ling Yi was deep in thought, Lin Qingyu patted his shoulder again and said, “What are you thinking about? If you have nothing to do now, do you want to make a small deal with me?”
“A deal?” Ling Yi widened his eyes in surprise. “Are you going to sell me something?”
He couldn’t get a read on the girl’s intentions. Where is she going with this sudden topic change?
Lin Qingyu put her hands on her hips and said with a serious face, “I have a good treasure here that will be very helpful for us newbies. If you want it, just say the word.”
“Well, you have to show me first.”
“There’s no rush. But I do have to ask….” Lin Qingyu clasped her hands together and smiled shyly as she moved closer to Ling Yi. Then, she blinked her red eyes at him and asked in a low voice, “Do you have any gold coins?”
Ling Yi opened his rucksack and looked at the number of gold coins he currently had.
123,780 G.
“Yes, I have quite a few,” He nodded.
A 1 Star Skill could be recycled for 10 gold coins, a 2 Star Skill for 30 gold coins, a 3 Star Skill for 100 gold coins…
With the help of his “Probability Reversal” talent, every monster he killed had a high probability of dropping a skill.
Although most were low-Star Skills, the number of gold coins obtained was still considerable.
“Do you have… This amount?” Lin Qingyu extended three fingers.
“Three hundred?”
“Yes.” She shyly confirmed.
“I have… Do you need gold coins?”
“Yeah… So let’s cut to the chase. I’ll show you what I have.”
Lin Qingyu smiled slightly and immediately opened the chat window with him. She sent the information of an item— they had added each other as friends on the forum on the first day they met.
[Battle Flag (E)]: Increases all attributes of all players within a 10-meter radius by 1 point.
‘Is– Is this effect permanent?‘
Ling Yi scanned through its effects twice, then nodded slightly to himself. “It’s indeed a pretty good treasure. Are you really going to sell it to me?”
Just as the name suggested, it’s a flag. According to its effect, as long as you carry the item, you can gain 1 point in all attributes permanently.
Although it was only one point… He still had the mutation system.
Any random change would make it better.
“Okay!” Lin Qingyu nodded excitedly. But suddenly, she sighed, “I was going to sell it for 500 G, but things don’t go well in the main world for me right now. I need the money and don’t have the time to wait.”
“300 G is as cheap as I could go.”
Ling Yi nodded, “I won’t take advantage of you. I’ll pay you whatever the normal price is.”
“Oh? Do you have enough money?”
“It’s alright.”
“Then… 500 G it is then,” Lin Qingyu’s face was a little red as if she was embarrassed.
“Alright,” he said.
After the two finished their deal, Lin Qingyu looked him up and down seriously.
Then, she patted his shoulder and laughed heartily, “Hehe, I didn’t expect you to be such a nice person. Thank you. You’ve helped me through this difficult time today. If you have any problems in the future, you can look for me. I’ll try my best to help you.”
Although she talked in a joking manner, her pink eyes were sincere.
Ling Yi smiled and didn’t say anything.
A few minutes later, his three hours had been used up, and he was sent back to the Main World.
…
After he returned, Ling Yi immediately started his daily spin.
[Congratulations! You have received a reward from the daily wheel: Experience points x 100]
“Another 100 exp.” This was also the best item on the wheel today. Ling Yi was already delighted.
After using the [EXP Pearl], he opened his personal stats again.
『Name: Ling Yi
[Level: 17 (1200/3600)]
[Talent: Probability Reversal]
[Strength: 3]
[Mana: 85]
[Agility: 100]
[Physique: 15]
[Endurance: 3]
1
[Skills: Starfall (3 Stars) (Still Can Grow), Attribute Duplication (6 Stars), Ice Emperor summoning (10 Stars)]
[Remaining Star Slots: 4 (Scavenged Treasures added 6 Star Slots)]
[Support Skills: Elemental Spirit Blade (S), Earth Shield (B)]
[Combat Strength: Extremely strong combat potential]』
He had only gained 4 levels after killing almost all the monsters on the second and third stages’ Main Road.
No wonder people always complained about how difficult leveling up was.
Looking at his Personal Stats that were getting stronger by the day, Ling Yi was satisfied. At the same time, he also made a small conclusion.
‘I have Elemental Spirit Blade for close combat, Earth Shield for defense, and Starfall for AOE damage. Other than that, I can summon the Ice Queen by using my Ice Emperor Summon, a creature that’s even stronger than me.‘
‘Other than not having any mobility or buff skills, I’m pretty well-rounded.‘

‘Even the new players from a few months ago are no match for me now!‘
He didn’t need to reflect on himself three times a day.
However, he had to always understand his own strengths and weaknesses. This way, he could make the most appropriate response in the shortest time possible when facing various unexpected situations.
After closing the interface, he immediately opened his rucksack.
In addition to the items he already had, there were two more skills he had not checked.
They were the signature skills of the second stage’s boss, Wind Maestro, and the third stage’s boss, Wildflame Monarch!
[Howling Wind (7 Stars) (Special)]: Has the ability to create strong winds and command them at will.
1
[Flaming Demon Body (6 Stars) (Special) (Passive)]: Any fire-type skills used by the owner will be doubled.
Special skill was the signature skill of a monster, and it could only be dropped by killing that type of monster.
For example, the [Howling Wind] is a skill that can only be obtained by killing a Wind Maestro, and there is no other way to obtain it at present.
‘I won’t even consider [Flaming Demon Body], but the [Howling Wind]….‘

Ling Yi touched his chin and fell into a dilemma.
Strictly speaking, this skill was a type of superpower. Once you learn it, you will have the ability to control the wind.
There were quite a few similar skills, and they were all boss-specific skills.
The power of this ability mainly depended on the player’s mana.
The higher the player’s mana was, the more powerful they would be.
Ling Yi hesitated for a long time before deciding not to learn.
On the one hand, because the mutation potential of [Howling Wind] was only “low”, there would not be much change after the mutation.
On the other hand, the wind didn’t increase his combat power much.
At least to him, whether he could or couldn’t control the wind didn’t change much.
‘If I don’t want to learn this, what should I do with it?‘
He definitely wouldn’t take back these two skills.
God’s Path recycling function was very rigid. For a skill with a few stars, it would only give you the corresponding amount of gold coins in return.
It didn’t matter if the skill was strong or not or if it was a Boss-specific skill.
Rather than recycling, it would be better to sell it to other players, at least for a high price.
Besides these two options, there was a third one.
And that was to fuse them–
Knock knock!
The sudden sound against his door broke through Ling Yi’s train of thoughts.
Then, Lin Shurou pushed the door open and peeked at him, and Ling Yi quickly understood what she was after.
“Oh, I’ll do the final part of the curse removal for you now.” Ling Yi quickly bought the Curse Dispelling Talisman and walked toward the girl.
