The quality of the treasure chests I open will always increase by 3.

As expected, Zhou Yalong appeared at the respawn point for what felt like the umpteenth time.

But unlike before, all of his equipment became ineffective and fell off automatically.

His attributes... plummeted to a pitiful level.

Killing monsters level 50 and above while naked?

How is that possible!

Without sufficient strength, he simply cannot break through the monster's defense!

True Yuan?

He dropped below level 50, and naturally lost this ability.

Zhou Yalong trembled. He couldn't afford to make even the slightest mistake, otherwise... any monster that came along would be beyond his ability to contend with, easily crushing him into dust.

What you fear most is what happens. Now that his level is low, even in stealth mode, he is easily detected by high-level monsters, and then... with one pounce and one bite, without his equipment, he only has a few hundred health points and almost no defense. Wouldn't he be taken down immediately?

Level 48.

As soon as he revived, Zhou Yalong used a teleportation scroll, but the game immediately displayed a message: There is no door nearby, teleportation failed.

The teleportation talisman is used to teleport the user to the edge of the door, but this is a special area that cannot be entered without a corresponding map. Therefore, if you want to leave, you can only wait for the secret realm to actively "bounce" you out.

Done!

He was quickly spotted by monsters even at level 49, so what about at level 48?

It's naturally easier.

As a result, his level began to drop sharply: level 47, level 46, level 45...

Zhou Yalong has become numb.

I was completely dazed, my mind was blank.

Even when his level dropped to 1 and couldn't drop any lower, he didn't react at all and just stood there motionless.

At that moment, a cheetah appeared, pounced, and bit him, sending him back to revive.

However, he has suffered no losses now.

I didn't lose experience or level, and all my equipment was put into my backpack. All I experienced was dying and resurrecting again and again.

……

After killing Zhou Yalong a few times, Lin Yuan stopped paying attention to him. Even he didn't expect that Zhou Yalong would be so unlucky. He didn't even fight monsters anymore. He just deliberately hid in a corner and was accidentally bumped into by Lin Yuan, and was even knocked out in the process.

Now that he'd seen it, he naturally had to finish the job with a sword strike, sending the opponent back to resurrect.

He continued leveling up.

After reaching level 22, he leveled up again 12 hours later.

Level 23!

There are only 11 hours left. Can I level up again?

It's difficult, but not impossible. It mainly depends on how much more experience he can gain from the BOSS.

He opened the map to take a look.

The golden boss, Shadow Panther King, has spawned.

A notification suddenly appeared.

Golden Boss!

Lin Yuan was stunned. This map was clearly for levels 50 to 60, so how could a golden BOSS spawn there?

Even the lowest-level Gold BOSS needs to be level 80, so even if the Shadow Panther King is level 80, it's still way too high!

How do I play?

Let alone fighting the boss, he'd probably rather just walk around it.

If he can wear a full set of level 20 Starry Sky gear, then his stats will be similar to those of a player with a full set of level 80 Gold gear. But even such a player would be qualified to solo a level 80 Gold BOSS.

impossible.

Therefore, Lin Yuan shook his head.

How do we fight this?

It's impossible to win.

Join forces with the others on the map?

Lin Yuan shook his head again. Not to mention that he and Zhou Yalong could never get along peacefully, even if the four of them could work together to deal with the BOSS, the other three were obviously weaker. Their level 50 silver gear was nothing compared to the level 80 gold BOSS.

But, are we just going to miss out on a golden BOSS?

Not reconciled.

Lin Yuan sighed, closed the map, and continued grinding monsters.

What's the use of being unwilling if you can't win?

We can't waste time, let's hurry.

Lin Yuan continued grinding monsters, but after a short while, Su Yunmeng sent him a message to remind him, and then she initiated a remote trade.

Two treasure chests, and they're gold-level!

"It's the deposit from the Wu family for crafting the protective necklace," Su Yunmeng said. "They couldn't get their hands on the platinum treasure chests, and even five gold treasure chests would require installments, so they felt bad and sent over two gold treasure chests first as a token of their sincerity."

Lin Yuan accepted the treasure chest, smiled, and said, "I'll have the necklace forged when I have some free time tomorrow."

"No need to rush, we can wait until they bring the remaining three golden treasure chests before we talk about it." Su Yunmeng unconditionally favored him.

"Um."

Lin Yuan shut down the communication and took out a golden treasure chest.

open!

A burst of light shot into the sky, the treasure chest vanished, and in its place appeared a pair of trousers.

【Starry Sky Leg Armor (Star-level, Bound)】

Constitution: +1440

Strength: +200

Agility: +100

Spirit: +100

Special Effect 1: Each time you hit a target, you have a very small chance of receiving the blessing of the stars, which increases all attributes by 10 times for 10 seconds.

Special 2: When activated, you become the embodiment of the stars, increasing all damage dealt by 200%, defense by 100%, and your Strength, Agility, and Spirit attributes are combined for calculation, lasting for 5 minutes. Cooldown: 24 hours.

Level required: 20

As expected of the Starry Sky outfit, the attributes are powerful and the special effects are also great. However... both special effects are based on percentages rather than fixed values, which has both advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that as Lin Yuan's attributes improve, the special effects of this equipment will not become outdated and will increase along with it. However, the disadvantage is that when his equipment is not particularly good, the percentage-based effect becomes somewhat weak.

Of course, this weakness is relative.

Lin Yuan immediately put on the new equipment, which boosted his attributes even further.

However, what does "Strength, Agility, and Spirit attributes are calculated together" mean in Special Effects 2?

His current Strength, Agility, and Spirit are 2157, 639, and 629 respectively, which together is 3425. So, does activating this effect mean that his Strength, Agility, and Spirit will all be based on these values?

Wait, what if the Blood Shadow Sword's special effect is triggered again?

Whether it's an increase of 5000 points in Strength, Agility, or Spirit, it's the same as an increase in every single stat.

In addition, the Moon Goddess Necklace also has a passive effect that increases spirit by 5000 points. This effect can be triggered whenever he is attacked, and if he pulls a few more monsters, this effect can be permanent.

If all attributes are increased by 1 points, how much can his damage increase dramatically?

Even against a Gold Boss, wouldn't he be godlike in those 5 minutes?

He has the skill of "using war to sustain war," and as long as his output is high enough, the amount of health he recovers will be astonishing.

If he can assess most of the BOSS's health in those two minutes, can he use up all his remaining skills and equipment effects to whittle down the BOSS's health?

Possibly, very likely!

Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat.

beat!
