Scroll of Skill Mutation: When Player learned a new skill, using the scroll will cause the skill to mutate!

Awesome!

A rare item that no one had come across yet!

But…it was not really useful for the time being.

“Equipment, equipment…”

Chen Mo put the Scroll of Skill Mutation aside. He was more concerned about the equipment that the Mutated Slime King had dropped.

“Got it! Green Equipment, Sturdy Leather Armor!”

{TL Note: Wait, why would a slime boss drop a leather armor!?}

Sturdy Leather Armor

Description: An armor made of high-quality monster skin. Extremely sturdy, high resistance against monster attacks.

Quality: Green

Requirement: Level 10 and above

Attribute:

Physical Defense +40

Magic Defense +48

Constitution +15

Dexterity +5

Not bad for the first piece of equipment from a Mutated Boss Monster. Chen Mo’s HP had increased by 300 after equipping the Sturdy Leather Armor!

As a Mutated Boss, it went without saying that the Mutated Slime King would drop more than one Green Equipment. Chen Mo immediately picked up another Green Equipment, a magic staff!

Vine Magic Staff

Description: A magic staff made of ancient vines. It’s very light, and has the ability to increase the casting speed of the person equipping it.

Quality: Green

Class Restriction: Summoner, Magician, Priest

Level Restriction: Level 10 and Above

Attribute:

Base Physical Damage: 35-45

Base Magic Damage: 55-70

Intelligence +20

Spirit +15

Additional Effect(s): Withered Vines

Withered Vines: When the Player successfully lands an attack on a target, there is a 5% chance that the attack will summon Withered Vines to bind the target, preventing the target from moving for 2 seconds.

Such a powerful weapon!

Chen Mo was astounded after seeing the Vine Magic Staff’s attributes. If only he had an equivalent Level 10 Green Equipment that he could use, he would be able to kill the Mutated Slime King twice as fast!

“I bet I can sell this weapon for at least twenty or thirty thousand!” Chen Mo speculated.

The Vine Magic Staff was worth around twenty to thirty thousand, and the Sturdy Leather Armor might worth a few thousand up to ten thousand. There was still some equipment he had not picked up yet. In other words, he could earn at least ten thousand every time he killed a Mutated Slime King, which was a lot more than what he could earn normally.

Ugh, maybe he should consider it as a way to earn some side income. If it was impossible to stop the full-dive virtual reality network from replacing the traditional network, at least he still managed to make a fortune from the game.

Chen Mo was worried that some Players would pass by. He did not inspect every loot clearly. He simply shoved them all into his backpack.

Chen Mo did not forget to use the Gathering Skill on the Mutated Slime King’s remains after picking up all the loot, to see if he could acquire something additional from it.

System Notification: You have obtained “Summon Slime”!

-Holy crap!-

Chen Mo was surprised when something actually appeared in his hand. It was a skill book for Summoners!

Summon Slime: A skill book for Summoners. The Player could summon multiple slimes after learning it.

Nice, a skill book. He wondered if the skill book was available elsewhere. If not, it must be a lot more expensive than the Vine Magic Staff. After all, even though the Vine Magic Staff had outstanding attributes, Players would most likely find better equipment at Level 20, but a skill would always be useful.

Chen Mo looked into his backpack. There were more than ten pieces of equipment inside it. Since the Mutated Slime King was a Mutated Boss Monster, its loots would be somewhat impressive. However, the rest of the loots were mostly Blue Equipment. There was no White Equipment. It turned out that the quality of the loots of a Mutated Boss Monster was guaranteed.

Apart from the Blue Equipment, Chen Mo finally found something he was looking for in his backpack!

It was a Purple Equipment—Slime King Bracelet!

Slime King Bracelet

Description: A bracelet from the Slime King’s collection. One of the Slime King’s set of accessories. Collecting all three accessories of the Slime King’s set will grant the Player hidden attributes.

Quality: Purple, a piece of a set

Requirement: Level 10 and above

Attribute:

Base Physical Damage +15

Base Magic Damage +15

Strength +20

Dexterity +15

Intelligence +20

Additional effect(s): Slime Poison

Slime Poison: Every time the Player attacks a target, there is a 20% chance to poison the target. Once poisoned, the target will lose 20 HP every second. The poison lasts for 5 seconds, and it can be stacked up to three times.

Special Effect(s): Collecting all three Slime King’s accessories will activate the set attributes.

Holy crap!

Purple Equipment, and it was an accessory that was part of a set, the rarest kind of all!

Chen Mo was blooming with joy. The time he had spent was not in vain!

After spending some time on the forum, Chen Mo learned that the defensive equipment was the most common drop from the monsters. The odds of a monster dropping weapons and accessories were a lot lower, let alone high-quality accessories.

Not only did he obtain a high-quality accessory, but it was also a part of the Slime King’s set of accessories!

A single Slime King Bracelet already had such outstanding attributes. How crazy would it be once he collected the full set consisting of a bracelet, a necklace, and a ring!

Chen Mo had made up his mind. He must collect all three Slime King accessories at all costs! Only then would he have a chance to defeat Inoch!

Apart from defeating Inoch, there was something else he wanted to do too, and he also needed some insane equipment for it!

Chen Mo counted the money that the Mutated Slime King had dropped. The sum was around fifty silver. It was quite a huge sum in the current phase of the game.

The Slime King would not respawn in a short period. If Chen Mo was planning to kill the Mutated Slime King again, he would have to respawn in other instances of Rookies Village by killing himself.

Before that, Chen Mo went offline and put up a post on the forum.

“Trying to make a fortune? Treasure in the wild! You can dig up a future!”

Chen Mo posted the screenshot he took and listed the attributes of the Gale Boots in the post.

He would have to hire Players from Rookies Village to dig up a pit. It might be fine a few times, but someone might see what he was doing after several attempts. The Players would be suspicious eventually.

Now that he had put up the post, not many Players would believe it, but those that did would make their way to the Slime Valley to dig the treasure.

It was obvious that they would not dig up anything. The Players would come back to the post and comment it was nothing but a lie.

The post was obviously just a lie, but it would serve as a smokescreen for Chen Mo. That way, when the Players saw Chen Mo hiring someone to dig the pit again, they would just assume him to be an idiot that believed in the post on the forum.

Chen Mo would be glad if the Players would think that way.

“Is this real?”

“I bet it’s just a lie.”

“Hello, are you there? Give us more evidence!”

A few Players soon wrote doubtful comments on Chen Mo’s post.

Chen Mo did not reply to the comments. Most Players assumed it was a lie, but there were a few Players that went to buy some shovels and visit the Slime Valley just as Chen Mo thought.

When the Players started digging, Chen Mo had inputted the command to kill himself and found himself back in the Goblin Valley.
