In the next few days, Bai Xiaowen continued to explore the treasure space of the Dead Soul Lake. While killing monsters, he also trained his combat skills and skill proficiency. Although his summoned creatures were dead, he could summon them again after 12 hours.
Moreover, Bai Xiaowen's combat skills were not to be underestimated.
Only the Wrath Claw was troublesome. He could only choose to spend Psionic Points to revive it when Bai Xiaowen left the space of the Dead Soul Lake. For a summoned creature like the Wrath Claw, once it died, it could not be summoned again in the current plane/space. It could only be revived when crossing planes/spaces.
As for the process of returning to the Pale Swamp from the internal isolation circle of the Naga Tribe, it was not considered crossing planes or space. The Naga Tribe was not an independent space. It was a part of the treasure space of the Dead Soul Lake.
After a few days of exploration, Bai Xiaowen killed many elite warriors of the Naga Tribe and obtained some treasure chests. However, he did not get anything valuable. However, Bai Xiaowen's skill proficiency and combat skills had improved to a certain extent.
The warriors of the Naga Tribe were like a group of dragons without a leader. They all fled, and some fled into the Pale Swamp.
The monsters in the internal isolation circle gradually decreased, so Bai Xiaowen went to the Pale Swamp. He did not deliberately look for Majik's successor or the hidden lobstermen tribe. Even when he encountered a lone lobsterman, he did not take the initiative to attack. He let them escape.
It was worth mentioning that Bai Xiaowen encountered a group of Swamp Hydra in the Pale Swamp. He also found a mutated Phantom Hydra among the Hydra group. In the end, he successfully killed these Hydra and obtained six more Phantom Hydra eyeballs.
Time passed day by day. Before the treasure space of the Dead Soul Lake closed, Bai Xiaowen chose to return.
When he returned to Earth through space, Bai Xiaowen received a notification from the Spiritual Realm's rules. It asked him if he wanted to spend 10,000 Psionic Points to revive the Wrath Claw. He chose yes without hesitation. Then, the scenery quickly changed and finally froze. He was already at the bottom of the lake, which was cold to the bone.
This place was the bottom of the Dead Soul Lake. Through the water flow, they could see the vague light of the space portal of the Dead Soul Lake.
Bai Xiaowen's Psionic Force Field automatically spread out like a thin film that separated the water flow. He swam upwards and soon returned to the clearing by the lake.
In the open space by the lake, the leading teachers of the major universities, as well as the hunters who had returned early, were waiting silently in groups of three or five.
"Ah, Captain is back." In the crowd of Jinghai University, Ding Cheng, Yan Jun, and the others shouted.
Li Shuyi noticed Bai Xiaowen earlier than them. She rushed forward and reached out to hold Bai Xiaowen's hand, revealing a reassuring smile. Although he didn't say anything, everything was conveyed without words.
Chen Guowei, Han Xu, and the others, including Yan Xiaoxin, all gathered around. Everyone was happy for Bai Xiaowen's successful return. Although the treasured space of the Dead Soul Lake was safer than the Spirit Realm and they could return at any time, it was better to be safe than sorry.
Li Shuyi said in a low voice, "When I first came back, I saw Qi Ruifeng and the other Heroes. They seemed to be very unhappy. They were all saying that you would be kicked out of the game early, and that you would only last for a dozen seconds at most. After that, you never came back. They were all wondering if you had been insta-killed by the boss. It was so infuriating … Why didn't you come back? I was starting to worry about you."
Bai Xiaowen said with a smile, "After I killed the Boss, I explored alone and trained for a few days. Don't worry about Qi Ruifeng and the others. It's normal for them to have such guesses and inferences. "
As Heroes, Qi Ruifeng and the others were naturally conceited. Even Qi Ruifeng, who had been defeated by Bai Xiaowen once, didn't think that Bai Xiaowen was much stronger than him.
When Bai Xiaowen didn't return, Qi Ruifeng and the others naturally had two guesses. The first was that Bai Xiaowen killed the Boss and continued to train in the Dead Soul Lake. The second was that Bai Xiaowen missed the opportunity to return and was killed by the Boss.
Objectively speaking, the second possibility was very unlikely, but Qi Ruifeng and the others were more willing to believe in the second possibility. Because they felt that no one could defeat the Naga Boss who had cast God's Descent, had two auras, and had 1,000 shield points. Therefore, they didn't want to believe that Bai Xiaowen was that strong.
Chen Guowei looked around and said with a smile, "Hey, where's Qi Ruifeng? I can't find him. It seems that he left as soon as Old Bai came out. I really want to see the expression on his face. "
Xiang Hui grabbed Chen Guowei and said, "I'll give you a poem."
Chen Guowei was dumbfounded. "Huh? What poem? "
"I have an old friend like you, but now he's dead …" Xiang Hui patted Chen Guowei. "You're on your own now."
Chen Guowei's face quickly darkened.
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and laughed. Then, he said to Chen Guowei, "Old Xiang is doing this for your own good … Next time, think before you speak. Don't always offend people. By the way, how's your harvest in the Naga Tribe? You didn't have a conflict with Shi Haiyan and the others, right? "
Chen Guowei nodded and said, "Those guys from Shandong University are not bad … Hehe, I guess it's because of you. Before I met you, there was a Zhang Yubin who was picky about my level. But you know what happened later. Didn't Zhang Yubin get lost? "
Han Xu gave Bai Xiaowen 10,000 psionic points. "I'll pay you back this much first. I'll pay you back the remaining 20,000 points later."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry. You need psionic points to increase your strength."
Han Xu's dull face showed a smile. "I've already saved 10,000 points. It's enough for me."
"Oh? Looks like your harvest in the Naga Tribe was pretty good. "Bai Xiaowen smiled and accepted the 10,000 psionic points.
At that time, Bai Xiaowen gave Han Xu 30,000 psionic points. He had spent 27,000 psionic points on the Gold weapon "Heavy Wrench," so he had a surplus of 3,000 psionic points. Han Xu's original savings should not have exceeded 10,000 psionic points. In this way, Han Xu had received at least 7,000 psionic points from this trip to the Naga Tribe. It was indeed not a low amount.
Of course, this was also related to Han Xu's high contribution points.
In a team, an MT's defense and damage absorption would have additional contribution points.
Han Xu's strength was not weak either. He also had a new Gold weapon, so his damage output was not to be underestimated.
In addition, the "effective crowd control effect" on monsters was also a great way to obtain contribution points. As for the "Heavy Wrench" Smothering Strike skill, although it couldn't be used repeatedly on the same monster, it was still very effective on different monsters. Han Xu's Smothering Strike on a monster's head every 30 seconds was equivalent to using a control skill. Of course, his contribution points were very high.
In contrast, Chen Guowei's harvest was much less than Han Xu's. It was only one-third of Han Xu's harvest. During the exploration of the Naga Tribe, he only received 2,000 to 3,000 psionic points.
Of course, for a Level-3 Awakened with an ordinary profession, earning 2,000 to 3,000 psionic points in a few days was already quite good.
There was a reason why Bai Xiaowen did not bring Han Xu and the others to challenge the Boss. He had already learned from the Lobster Prophet Majik's scroll that Alici might have a trump card of God's Descent. If he brought Han Xu and the others to challenge Alici, they would not be of much help. They would only be expelled by the Boss like Qi Ruifeng and the others, losing the opportunity to hide the Naga Tribe.
Under the circumstances at that time, Han Xu and the others teamed up with a few people from Shandong University to fight against the Naga patrols outside the high walls of the Naga Tribe. Not only could they help Bai Xiaowen attract the attention of the Naga Tribe, they could also pick up some extra benefits. This was the wisest choice.
"Hey, Boss Bai Xiaowen, Han Xu!" A slightly familiar voice sounded.
The people from Jinghai University looked over. It was Shi Haiyan and the others from Shandong University. Beside him was a sturdy fatty. It was the team leader of Shandong University, Bao Yiming. The one who greeted them was Shi Haiyan.
Shi Haiyan first thanked Bai Xiaowen for bringing him to kill monsters. Then, he introduced him to Bai Xiaowen. "This is our team leader, Boss Bao Yiming …"
Bai Xiaowen looked at the fatty Bao Yiming and said calmly, "I've met Senior Bao in the Naga Tribe."
Bao Yiming was a little embarrassed. After all, it wasn't very honorable to freeload monsters. Besides, if he didn't freeload monsters, it wouldn't be worth it to offend an expert like Bai Xiaowen. When he heard that his team member, Shi Haiyan, and Bai Xiaowen had crossed paths, he thickened his skin and brought Shi Haiyan along.
"Brother Bai, it was my fault this time. Please forgive me if I offended you," Bao Yiming said shamelessly. "If there's a chance in the future, I'll treat you to a meal, okay?"
Chen Guowei wanted to say something, but he held back. He remembered the poem that Xiang Hui gave him …
Bai Xiaowen smiled faintly. "Senior Bao, you don't have to be so polite. Let's just clear up the misunderstanding."
When the three Heroes came over, Qi Ruifeng had the intention of stealing monsters. He even proposed to expel Bai Xiaowen from the Dead Soul Lake. However, he was rejected by Bao Yiming first. Then, Duanmu Cheng agreed with Bao Yiming's opinion and successfully transferred Bai Xiaowen's hostility to Qi Ruifeng.
Bai Xiaowen didn't have much ill feelings towards Bao Yiming. Just as the fatty said, he only freeloaded monsters to save face. Although it wasn't right, it wasn't bad to the core. Moreover, the other party had already apologized in front of everyone. There was no point in continuing to harp on this matter. It was better to just let it go.
Bao Yiming relaxed and smiled. "I didn't expect Brother Bai to be able to kill the Boss in such a desperate situation and escape safely. It's really unexpected. I finally understand why Jiangnan University, an old and strong team, was defeated by you alone. Your strength should be at the top of the CUAA league. I can only pray that I won't meet you in the first two rounds of the Nationals next year. "
"Senior, you flatter me." Bai Xiaowen felt good, but he didn't become complacent. In a sense, Bao Yiming was still considered an opponent. It was better to be cautious when it came to praise from an opponent.
Yan Xiaoxin heard Bao Yiming's words and was full of smiles. She once again felt that it was wise of her to recruit Bai Xiaowen into Jinghai University and let Bai Xiaowen be the team leader.
After Bao Yiming left, Yan Xiaoxin quietly pulled Bai Xiaowen. "How was the harvest this time?"
Bai Xiaowen knew what Yan Xiaoxin meant. He smiled and replied, "How many Spirit Hydra eyeballs do you want?"
"Do you have a lot?" Yan Xiaoxin looked at Bai Xiaowen in surprise. "Spirit Hydras are very rare."
"There are very few of them, but killing one will give you six eyeballs. After all, it has three heads …" Bai Xiaowen said with a smile. "Teacher Yan, how much are you buying them this time? If it's too low, I won't do it. "
Yan Xiaoxin knew that Bai Xiaowen had opened a virtual shop on the Virtual Combat Platform. It was very popular. Although the eyeballs of Spirit Hydras were relatively rare, as long as Bai Xiaowen patiently gathered information, it wasn't difficult to obtain the market price of such an item.
Moreover, Bai Xiaowen's strength was obvious to all. In the future, she would have to rely on Bai Xiaowen to get the necessary materials from the special treasure lands.
Considering the above, Yan Xiaoxin happily gave a price. It was actually 5,000 Psionic Points for a Spirit Hydra eyeball!
Bai Xiaowen was secretly surprised. A Spirit Hydra had at least six eyeballs. Just selling the eyeballs would earn him 30,000 Psionic Points. It was comparable to the profit from a high-level boss's treasure chest. Moreover, the Spirit Hydra itself could drop treasure chests.
However, Bai Xiaowen was not short of Psionic Points. Even though Yan Xiaoxin's price was very sincere, he did not sell all 18 eyeballs in the end. He only sold the six eyeballs he had obtained from the Ashen Swamp. He kept the 12 eyeballs he had plundered from the Naga's altar.
Bai Xiaowen sighed. Special treasure lands were indeed worthy of their reputation. The Dragon Blood Tea Tree leaf that he had obtained in the Great Rift Valley and the Spirit Hydra's eyeball this time were not drawn from the Spoils of War Cards. They were additional gains from monster corpses or treasures of heaven and earth.
From this point of view, the special treasure lands were more prosperous than the Spiritual Realm. After all, in the Spiritual Realm, other than loot cards and mission rewards, the items obtained through other means could not be taken away. Of course, the Spiritual Realm could unearth side quests with rich rewards and speed up leveling. This was something the special treasure lands could not compare with.
Take the matter of the Lobster Man and the Naga Tribe as an example. If it was in the Spiritual Realm, Bai Xiaowen would definitely be able to unearth a corresponding quest line from the Lobster Man Prophet. Conservatively speaking, it would be an A-rank elite quest that could give him a lot of experience points.
After Yan Xiaoxin completed an important quest, she was relieved. She asked Bai Xiaowen if he wanted to sell the Nether Grass. The price was 100 Psionic Points per stalk. Compared to the Spirit Hydra eyeballs, the Nether Grass could only be regarded as a common commodity. However, it was easy to obtain. Basically, every hunter who participated in the competition could collect some. It could be considered as a side income. Bai Xiaowen smiled and refused. He was a pharmacist. It was better to keep this kind of herb whose use was uncertain.
