Looking at the various attribute values in front of him, Lin Xiu felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart for no reason.
From the beginning of his Awakening to now, he could already defeat the Hidden Boss alone. In this short day, Lin Xiu had grown a lot, and this was clearly reflected in his stats.
As his gaze continued to move downwards, Lin Xiu quickly saw the description of the newly unlocked specialized skill of the Divine Forgemaster Class.
[Specialization Skill 1: Soul Refining (Every time you defeat an enemy, the equipment you wear will receive a portion of experience. When the experience is full, the equipment will automatically increase in quality. Note: This effect is only effective on equipment of Gold quality and above.]
Looking at the description of the specialized skills in the Class column, Lin Xiu was quite surprised.
"As expected of a Divine Forgemaster. The equipment he wears can automatically upgrade. Cough cough… This is very reasonable."
Looking at his equipment, Lin Xiu realized that only the Boots of Hermes had an additional EXP bar. After absorbing a portion of the Hidden Boss's EXP, the EXP bar of the boots had increased to more than 80 percent.
He believed that it would not be long before this pair of boots would be able to break away from its Purple Crystal quality status and become a genuine Diamond quality equipment.
He was looking forward to seeing what attributes the Boots of Hermes would have after it reached the Diamond quality.
After looking around and discovering that there were no resources around, Lin Xiu immediately pressed the exit button.
The world before his eyes turned dark. When Lin Xiu regained consciousness, he had already appeared on the most central street of Shouyan Town!
From the dim catacombs to the bright streets, the strong change in lighting made Lin Xiu subconsciously narrow his eyes.
He was used to the cold, damp, and rancid air in the Catacombs. Now that he was back in the real world, the warm and fresh air around him made him feel a little uncomfortable.
Opening his eyes tentatively, at this moment Lin Xiu was puzzled to discover that quite a number of teachers and academies were surrounding him.
Facing those doubtful, surprised, shocked, and incredulous gazes, Lin Xiu scratched his head and said somewhat uncertainly, "Teachers, why are you all looking at me?"
Hearing Lin Xiu's muttering, the surrounding teachers and students immediately dispersed.
In the crowd, the principal and the secretary, who were dressed in suits and leather shoes, walked toward him with warm expressions.
"Lin Xiu, it's great that you got out. We were all worried about you just now!"
The Principal's figure was a little thin, and the wrinkles on his face were faintly visible. Looking at the other party's concerned gaze, Lin Xiu finally reacted. All his actions in the Catacombs could be seen clearly by the teachers and students outside through the Heart Calling Mirror!
"Oh... Thank you, Principal, and all the teachers and students for your concern. I'm fine now," Lin Xiu replied with a smile. He was still not quite used to being watched by everyone. This feeling of being surrounded by stars.
After saying that, he planned to leave the crowd.
However, before he could do anything, the Secretary beside him grabbed his arm.
"Lin Xiu, I saw that you were badly injured by the Boss in the Catacombs just now. Hurry up and use this bottle of Pure Recovery Potion to recover your condition."
Looking at the Secretary, whose hair was combed meticulously and his face was full of smiles, Lin Xiu was instantly in a dilemma.
His current state was indeed very bad. Not only did his body have all kinds of debuffs, but even his spirit was exhausted.
Therefore, Lin Xiu only wanted to hurry back and adjust his condition. After that, he would consider selling the materials and equipment in his backpack that he did not need to exchange for some money to help his family buy more time.
However, the Pure Recovery Potion in the Secretary's hand could not only remove all the negative effects on Lin Xiu's body, but it could also help him recover his HP and mana in a short period of time and return to his peak condition.
However, Lin Xiu knew that all the free things had already been marked with a price in secret.
If he accepted it just like that, he would definitely owe the other party a favor.
Therefore, regardless of whether the other party cherished talent or had other motives, Lin Xiu did not want to receive favors from others for no reason.
Just as Lin Xiu was about to open his mouth to refuse, the Principal at the side seemed to have seen through his inner thoughts and persuaded him.
"Lin Xiu, just take it. Secretary Feng has good intentions and doesn't have any other thoughts. Moreover, your current condition is very dangerous. If you don't deal with it in time, it's very likely that you will contract a chronic illness that is difficult to treat!"
Hearing that the usually cold and old-fashioned Principal would actually take the initiative to persuade Lin Xiu, the surrounding students all looked envious.
They did not understand why Lin Xiu did not accept it directly. It was Secretary Feng's kindness.
"Sir Secretary, I understand your good intentions, and I will accept this potion, but I can't receive your favor for nothing, so I have a better suggestion," Lin Xiu said with a serious expression.
Then, he immediately initiated a fair trade with the secretary. Without hesitation, he placed the Plague Scythe that he had just obtained from the Hidden Boss into the trade window.
Seeing Lin Xiu's actions, the smile on Secretary Feng's face immediately became surprised.
It was hard to believe that Lin Xiu was just a newcomer who had yet to enter society, but he knew the various hidden rules of society.
Regarding this, Secretary Feng was very surprised, but he respected and appreciated Lin Xiu's choice. He quickly placed the Pure Recovery Potion in the trading column and chose to confirm.
After the transaction, the Plague Scythe and the Pure Recovery Potion both had new owners.
Lin Xiu looked at the potion in his backpack and immediately chose to appraise it.
To be honest, because the family was relatively declining, Lin Xiu had always pursued a diligent and thrifty style.
Therefore, before entering the battle, he only bought some ordinary medicine worth about 100R.
He had never even seen the Pure Recovery Potion in front of him.
[Medium Pure Recovery Potion]
[Type: Recovery]
[Effect: After consumption, it will recover 500 HP and 500 MP within 10 seconds, and remove all low-level negative effects.]
[Value reference: 2000R]
