Auto-Poison

"THE PLAYER NAME, XXXXXXXX, WAS THE FIRST PLAYER IN GRAY STAINS CITY TO GET OWNERSHIP. THIS ACHIEVEMENT WILL BE SAVED FOREVER IN THE HALL OF FAME"

"As a reward for this feat, the player will receive: +5 in all attributes, +1 LUCKY, +500 HP, and 500 Fame Points" The system announced it to all online players, and also recorded the achievement in the Hall of Fame.

"HE MANAGED!!!!!!"

"IT WAS REALLY HIM!!!!!"

"HE COMPLETED THE LEGENDARY QUEST!!!!"

… 

In the quests window, the Return of the Necklace disappeared for everyone once it was completed.

Something that left a bitter taste in everyone's mouth, especially those who spent great fortunes looking for the necklace, but never found it.

"Young man, you did two big favors for the Morgan family, but you only received one reward. The great matriarch gave you something she wanted to give, but I still don't think it was enough. Her peace is worth much more than a simple reward."

"If it's like that, I wonder if you could give me some gold coins and a defensive-type passive skill with self-casting capabilities. If it's not an excessive request" Lin Yun was a little embarrassed to have asked for something so rare.

Self-casting passive skills are very rare, especially defensive ones, and he wants one of those.

"…" Selina Morgan just wanted to hit him for abusing her goodwill, but since she was the one who spoke about the request, she couldn't go back.

Her character does not allow her to go back on her promises.

"The Morgan family has only three passive self-casting defensive-type skills and three active ones. Choose one" She decided to show more than he had asked for in consideration of Lamya Morgan.

Her last breaths are the final scenes, which she will never forget. The peace and happiness in her eyes were genuine.

Something like this has only happened twice since Selina Morgan met her, and this was the second.

Thus, she thought it was worth giving this small benefit to Lin Yun.

A list of seven skills appeared.

Auto-Heal: When attacked, there is a small chance of using the Level 1 Heal skill.

Heal: Heals the target for 150 HP.

Auto-Blessing: When attacked, there is a small chance of using the level 1 Blessing skill.

Blessing: Increases the four base attributes by three points.

Auto-Parry: When attacked, there is a small chance of using the level 1 Parry skill.

Parry: Creates a shield around the user, blocking a hit.

Auto-Poison: When attacking, there are chances of auto-cast Poison level 1 to the target, taking Poison status.

Poison: Intoxicates the target, causing continuous damage of 5 HP, which can stack.

Auto-Freeze: When attacking, there are chances of auto-cast Freeze level 1 to target.

Freeze: There is a small chance of freezing the target, making it impossible to take any action for three seconds.

Auto-Lighting: When attacking, there are chances to auto-cast Lightning level 1 to target.

Lightning: Summons a powerful lightning bolt to attack the target, dealing 200 magical damage, varying according to the INT attribute.

Each of the skills can be considered very good. Each one is useful in a different situation, but Lin Yun can only choose one of them.

At first, he wanted a defensive passive, but active ones are much more attractive than defensive ones. So, he thought for a while before deciding which one he would choose.

Lightning and Freeze are good skills, one does damage and the other is a very broken CC. Anyone would choose the passive freeze skill because it is more advantageous in combat against players.

But given his current situation, there was one that could help a lot when leveling up, Auto-Poison.

Quick attacks can inflict Poison on the target and stack stacks to maximize damage. Eventually, even the strongest creature can be defeated with Poison stacks.

Lin Yun thought this way and chose this passive skill.

"Madam Morgan, I choose this skill, Auto-Poison"

"Is this your final choice?"

"Yes."

Selina Morgan waved her hand, and the list disappeared, leaving only the chosen skill, which turned into an explosion of light before entering Lin Yun's body.

ding… ding…

"Quest: Return of the Necklace – Completed"

"You have completed the hidden quest, Return of the Skeleton. An extra reward will be received"

"You level up"

"You level up"

"You level up"

"You level up"

"You level up"

"You level up"

"+1 LUCKY"

"You received: 1000 Gold Coins"

"You received: 100 Gold Coins"

"You have received: Skill – Auto-Poison"

Auto-Poison(Passive)(Beginner I Level 1 - 0%)

(AMAZING!!!!!) The reward for the quest was far beyond what he imagined.

Six levels, plus one point in the LUCKY attribute, eleven hundred Gold Coins, and a powerful passive skill.

It's much more than he wanted.

"The Morgan family is grateful for your help and will always remember this favor. You may return to your property" Selina Morgan made the bow gesture before sending him to the chosen property.

ding… ding…

"Friendship with the Morgan family improved"

"Friendship with Selina Morgan improved"

"!!!!!" Lin Yun didn't even think that he could have this kind of benefit as well.

Making friends with common NPCs is not difficult, the player just needs to speak well for a while and it can happen, but high-level NPCs are one of the most complicated things possible because they require extremely difficult quests to complete and there may not always be an increase in friendship.

And the benefits were so many that they cannot even be commented on.

NPCs can give players better quests or even become part-time or full-time helpers. There were so many different types of benefits from having friendships with high-level NPCs that some are even unknown.

Unable to react to the surprise, his body was blown away, appearing inside an old and abandoned building, cobwebs and dust can be seen everywhere.

"Is this the property? It looks like an abandoned, haunted house." LinYun walked around the place and took a closer look at the property he chose.

To no surprise, the location is a medium-sized store with the capacity to become a small general store.

"Open Dashboard" The property management window appears before it.

"Clean" The cost for cleaning everything was ten Gold Coins, he just needed to click the button and all the dust would be cleaned like magic.

"I think I will transform this first floor into a vending machine store focused on just consumables, where players just need to click on the machine without the need to talk to NPCs, this will speed up sales. The second floor will be a more specific sales location with better items, and I will need to hire players or NPCs to be employees. Then I will think about what to do about the next floors" Lin Yun thought aloud as he analyzed what to do, but there was something he forgot.

Looking at the remodel window, the expression froze as if it had been thrown into a frozen mountain.
