There's Something Wrong How She Looked At Me!

"Damn, Berserk Wolf is too rich!"

"That's right! Just a system announcement alone costs $100,000, and that's not including his offered reward."

"Roaming Wolf is a large guild with many financial groups backing it. This amount of money is nothing for him."

"This is really too tragic for Bunao Biaoyin!"

Seeing this system announcement, every player in the game became excited.

The name of Bunao Biaoyin and Berserk Wolf became known throughout the entire server of the region. Numerous posts appeared on the game's official website.

'Breaking news! Sharing a hidden secret between Berserk Wolf and Bunao Biaoyin.'

'Shocking news! Paying a huge price just to kill one person, Bunao Biaoyin!'

"Shocking news! Bunao Biaoyin's monster appearance is actually a hidden class?"

…

Mo Fan was also watching the discussion about him online.

The system announcement sent by Berserk Wolf had stunned him.

Even he himself was tempted by the $500,000.

An ordinary person might need half a lifetime to earn it.

"If I had more revival attempts, I may even go for the reward myself!"

Mo Fan shook his head in regret before closing the official website.

Mo Fan had completely ignored the warrant issued by Berserk Wolf!

Trying to capture me?

Hmph! You'll have to find me first!

He had just killed a lot of players and gained 1,530,000 Spiritual Energy Points.

He also obtained a large number of Human Bloodline Fragments and Star Level Fragments.

[Scarecrow Bloodline Fragment: 436/1000 (Grade 0 Fragment)]

[Chrysanthemum Spirit Bloodline Fragment: 2262/10,000 (Grade 0 Fragment)]

[Human Bloodline Fragment: 3056/1000 (Can Be Fused)]

[Star Level Fragment: 5971/10,000 (Star Level 0 Fragment)]

[Monster Reputation: 3166]

[Player Reputation: 4025]

Seeing the icons that could be upgraded, Mo Fan directly upgraded his human talent.

Following the stirring of a mysterious power in his body, the 'Medium Human Bloodline' became the 'Upper Human Bloodline'.

[Human Bloodline Fragment: 2056/10,000 (Grade 0 Fragment)]

[Talent "Upper Human Bloodline": Strength+4%, Dexterity+4%, Constitution+2%]

His three main attributes increased once again.

As the number of species that he killed increased and with his abilities upgraded, numerous new items were also made available in the Reputation Shop.

[Scarecrow Bloodline Fragment (Grade 0): 1 Monster Reputation Point per Fragment]

[Human Bloodline Fragment (Grade 0): 1 Monster Reputation Point per Fragment]

[Chrysanthemum Spirit Bloodline Fragment (Grade 0): 1 Monster Reputation Point per Fragment]

[Star Level Fragment (Star Level 0): 1 Reputation Point per Fragment]

[Scarecrow Skin: 1000 Player Reputation Points]

[Human Skin: 1000 Monster Reputation Points]

[Chrysanthemum Spirit Skin: 1000 Player Reputation Points]

[Chrystem Skin: 5000 Player Reputation Points]

[Star Level Fragment (Star Level 1): 100 Reputation Points per Fragment]

[Chrysanthemum Spirit Bloodline Fragment (Grade 1): 100 Monster Reputation Point per Fragment]

[100 Player Reputation Points: 100 Grade 0 Bloodline Fragment (Any Kind)]

[100 Player Reputation Points: 100 Star Level 0 Fragments]

[100 Monster Reputation Points: 100 Grade 0 Bloodline Fragment (Any Kind)]

[1 Star Level 1 Fragment: 100 Star Level 0 Fragments]

[1 Grade 1 Bloodline Fragment (Choice: Scarecrow, Human, Chrysanthemum Spirit): 100 Grade 0 Bloodline Fragments (Any Kind)]

[100 Grade 0 Bloodline Fragments (Choice: Scarecrow, Human, Chrysanthemum Spirit): 100 Grade 0 Bloodline Fragments (Any Kind)]

[1 Revival Attempt: 100,000 Reputation Points]

Mo Fan was a little surprised to see these new items.

Player Reputation Points and Monster Reputation Points could be bought with fragments, and various bloodline fragments could also be exchanged.

The fragments and skins that appeared in the Reputation Shop were the same as the monsters that he had killed. In other words, the more species he killed in the future, the more fragments and skins would appear in the Reputation Shop.

Revival attempts were now being sold in the Reputation Shop.

However, the reputation points required were simply astronomical and there was basically no possibility for Mo Fan to buy it at the moment.

When a player died, they would revive at their designated resurrection point.

As for Mo Fan's own revival system, he had yet to figure it out.

Every time he revived, the resurrection location seemed to be random.

But he did not lose any of his Spiritual Energy nor any item in his inventory.

Compared to him, players lost 50% of their Spiritual Energy scaled to their level every time they died. If the quantity of their Spiritual Energy wasn't enough to make up 50% of their maximum Spiritual Energy at that level, they could lose a level.

For example, if the current level required 100,000 points of Spiritual Energy, 50,000 points of Spiritual Energy would be lost.

If the player did not have 50,000 points of Spiritual Energy by the time of their death, their level would drop until the 50,000 points of Spiritual Energy were successfully deducted.

After death, some equipment and items in their inventory would drop randomly.

The more they died, the higher the chances of them dropping their equipment.

When Mo Fan still had revival attempts, he managed to resurrect without suffering any losses.

If he used up all of his revival attempts, what would happen then?

Would he only lose his Spiritual Energy and equipment like the players?

Or would something else happen?

Sigh…

It was better not to take that risk.

After all, he was categorized by the game system as a monster—not a player.

If he permanently died instead of being revived, that would be the worst…

He looked at his stats and at the Reputation Shop once again.

Among his three talents, the scarecrow bloodline increased his DPS by a huge margin.

The human bloodline was a potential-based talent, so he was not in a hurry to improve it.

As for the chrysanthemum spirit bloodline, it was an AOE talent.

The chances of triggering it were currently high enough, so there was no hurry to increase it.

Using the process of elimination, Mo Fan knew that he had to improve his scarecrow bloodline first.

Thinking of this, Mo Fan immediately exchanged the extra Grade 0 Human Bloodline Fragments and Chrysanthemum Spirit Bloodline Fragments for the Grade 0 Scarecrow Bloodline Fragments through the Reputation Shop.

[Scarecrow Bloodline Fragment: 4636/1000 (Can Be Enhanced)]

"Upgrade! Upgrade!"

A mysterious power stirred in his body.

Mo Fan's Scarecrow bloodline immediately rose from "medium" to "upper".

[Scarecrow Bloodline Fragment: 3636/10,000 (Grade 0 Fragment)]

[Talent "Upper Scarecrow Bloodline": Normal attacks have a 16% chance of causing bleeding, dealing damage that is 10% of your maximum health. Duration: 3 seconds.]

The bleeding chance increased from 8% to 16%, it doubled!

With his current HP, he only had to inflict bleeding once to kill a player at the same level.

Mo Fan checked his stats.

[Torn Shoes (Gray)]

Mo Fan saw that he still had quite a bit of Reputation Points left.

Other than the Human Skin that required Monster Reputation, the other skins required Player Reputation. As a result, Mo Fan converted Monster Reputation into Player Reputation through the Reputation Shop.

He chose to exchange!

[Monster Reputation: 66]

[Player Reputation: 7125]

Looking at the 7000 Reputation Points, he could buy the three skins that were still not in his possession.

He chose to buy them!

[System Notification: Congratulations on obtaining 'scarecrow skin'!]

[Scarecrow Skin: After using it, you can disguise yourself as a wild monster scarecrow.]

[Time Limit: 30 Days!]

[System Notification: The time-limited skin will be retrieved by the system when the time limit expires. If you want to continue using it, you will need to purchase it again!]

[System Notification: Through the repeated purchase of the same type of skin, there is a small chance of obtaining it permanently!]

What the heck?

Why was it different from human skin?

There was even a time limit!

After taking a closer look, it was indeed limited to 30 days.

In other words, the scarecrow skin could only be used for the next 30 days.

It would disappear from his inventory once the time was up.

The human skin that he bought previously had no time limit.

He could use it whenever he wanted.

However, it had a small flaw.

Whenever his HP became lower than 10%, the skin would lose its effect.

But this still meant that he had been lucky enough to buy a permanent skin when he bought the human skin.

Mo Fan looked at the scarecrow skin again and shook his head.

Another purchase!

[System Notification: Congratulations on obtaining 'chrysanthemum spirit skin'!]

[Chrysanthemum Spirit Skin: After using it, you can disguise yourself as a wild monster chrysanthemum spirit.]

[Time Limit: 7 Days!]

Like the scarecrow skin, it was also a time-limited skin.

But the time limit was even shorter.

Another purchase!

[System Notification: This skin is a rare skin. Congratulations on unlocking the Skin Companion System!]

[Skin Companion: Lovers in both past and present life.]

[Chrystem (Collected) / Dog Yaksha (Not Collected)]

[Companion Attribute (Not Activated)]

[Health Points +20,000]

[Attack +1000]

[Defense +1000]

Looking at the series of system notifications and at the skin companion attribute, Mo Fan's eyes almost fell out of their sockets.

Holy sh*t!

Is the Goddess of Luck shining on me again?

This is too exciting!

This skin is too awesome!

Just using it alone would directly add 100 points to each of his three main attributes.

It also bestowed upon him an additional skill.

The companion bonus stats were also ridiculously strong. As long as all these attributes became his, he would be invincible in the early stages of this game!

And this skin was permanent!

There were no flaws at all.

They were all positive.

Oh, Chrystem! Is this a gift from you?

Hahaha!

So that was the case!

No wonder she looked at me strangely when she died!

So you want me to help you find this Dog Yaksha!

You should have said so earlier…

Wait!

What is this Dog Yaksha?

Is it also a Bronze Rank Boss?
