[Congratulations to player [Lost] for successfully clearing the Dungeon [Real Werewolf], and receiving the reward: Points +60 (30 Werewolves ×2)]
[Congratulations to the player for completing hidden missions:]
[1. [Uncover the truth of Werewolf Village], reward: Attribute Point +1]
[2. [Single-handedly slaughter over 85% of the NPCs], reward: Attribute Point +1]
[Congratulations to the player for obtaining the Dungeon item: Earth Spirit Pearl (Unique)]
Su Luo had already realized this time that speed was also important.
She planned to focus on Spirit, with Speed as a secondary.
So she said: “Allocate the attribute points to Spirit and Speed respectively.”
[Open panel:]
[HP: 25 (+6)]
[Strength: 7 ]
[Speed: 12 (+1)]
[Spirit: 14 (+3)]
[Endurance: 10]
[Charm: 12]
[Points: 77]
[Innate Skill: Divine Redemption (Legendary): Instantly transports a person at full HP to any location the skill owner has passed through. Usable once per Dungeon.]
[Skill – Healing Magic Bullet: Increases (or decreases) HP by 100% of the target’s Spirit value for allies (or enemies) (CD: 5 seconds)]
Su Luo tapped on the Earth Spirit Pearl again to check its item properties:
[Earth Spirit Pearl: Earth-type [Common Grade] magic treasure. Can be embedded into weapons by Earth-element players, providing a continuous source of Earth power. (Earth-type skill CD -1 (non-basic attacks))]
[Additionally:]
[1. The Earth Spirit Pearl can be combined with the other five elemental Spirit Pearls. When all five are gathered, they can form the [Common Grade] Light and Dark Dual Spirit Pearl, or be upgraded to any elemental [Spirit Grade] magic treasure.]
[2. Holders of a Spirit Pearl are more likely to enter Dungeons related to other Spirit Pearls or encounter other Spirit Pearl holders.]
[Don’t underestimate this Earth Spirit Pearl for only having a skill CD -1; in actual combat, it could very well mean taking the lead with every step.]
Su Luo was genuinely delighted.
The best treasure one could get at the normal rank was Common Grade, and many players at the elite rank didn’t even have a Common Grade magic treasure!
It was just a pity that this Spirit Pearl was earth-type, and neither she nor Yun Feibai could use it.
Su Luo herself was light-element.
Priests could only be light, water, or wood elements, perhaps that’s also why Priests were even rarer.
Su Luo didn’t know exactly what element Yun Feibai was, but she was sure it wasn’t earth.
Just by looking at Yun Feibai’s looks—even if someone claimed he was divine (though he wasn’t)—Su Luo would believe it.
She’d really profited from this Dungeon.
Thinking back on the story of this Dungeon, Su Luo felt a sense of karmic cycle.
The prophecy made by the Witch truly couldn’t be changed.
And it was precisely the existence of the prophecy that caused it to come true.
Su Luo didn’t know what to say.
She lay on the soft, big bed, leaving all her Dungeon experiences in her dreams.
When she woke up, she’d be her lively self again.
***
Number Ten was eating at the Village Chief’s House with a group of people, feeling both smug and frustrated.
Smug because they’d taken Su Luo’s house—looks like a fallen Phoenix isn’t even as good as a chicken, how satisfying.
Frustrated because, had he known Number One was so timid, he would have just followed her from the start and wouldn’t have wasted two days!
He was eating when a flash of white light suddenly appeared.
Before Number Ten could even process what was happening, the notice for the end of the Dungeon had already sounded.
In the last second before returning to the Instance Space, he thought: ‘No wonder Number One didn’t want this house.’
All things considered, he’d basically won by doing nothing.
Number Ten felt that even if he didn’t show up, it wouldn’t have affected Number One’s progress at all!
Thinking about it, he got cocky again: So what if Number One didn’t like him?
Wasn’t she still forced to carry him to victory?
But when Number Ten saw the Dungeon settlement, he was completely stunned.
[Player [Strongest Invincible] completed less than 1% of the Dungeon mission progress this round, judged as passive gaming, and receives punishment:]
[1. Dungeon failed]
[2. 10 points deducted]
[Additionally: Next time, the point deduction will be doubled.]

The next day, since she had to wait for Yun Feibai to team up, and she only had one more Dungeon left to finish, Su Luo was in no hurry at all.
Leisurely, she put on a black baseball cap, ready to take a stroll.
The scenery in the Empire Capital was nice.
Although it didn’t have the ancient buildings of the Original Continent, thanks to experience, the entire city was well-planned.
Su Luo discovered after two days of wandering that there weren’t only newbies in her community.
Not only that, but there were also many retirees who had lived past sixty.
Don’t underestimate these people—it was truly not easy to survive to sixty.
Especially as they got older and their energy waned, those who could still live on were all amazing.
Su Luo respected them greatly.
Though they no longer entered Dungeons, the experience and lessons they possessed were exactly what newcomers like her needed most.
Su Luo herself looked sweet and was good with words, so the elderly in the community were willing to teach her.
Of course, these seniors had been through countless Dungeons and could tell Su Luo was a good kid, otherwise they wouldn’t bother.
Su Luo learned a lot here.
Around two in the afternoon, her contacts suddenly rang.
Su Luo opened it, and, unsurprisingly, it was Yun Feibai.
[Yun Feibai: I’m ready.]
[Su Luo: Party up?]
[Yun Feibai: Sure. Same place as last time?]
[Su Luo: Okay, I’ll be there at three.]
After replying, Su Luo turned and headed to Meitèsī Bāngwǔ.
For new players like them, less than a month in, they could just swipe their ID cards to take the bus—no need to pay.
Once they’d made it through the first month, the state would give newbies under a year a 1,000 yuan monthly subsidy.
If that wasn’t enough, they’d have to earn the rest themselves.
When Su Luo arrived, Yun Feibai was already there.
Sunlight shone on his face, making his pale skin look almost translucent.
His long lashes curled up slightly—definitely an eyelash fairy.
He just sat there, holding an unknown book, looking serene and peaceful.
The scene was so beautiful that Su Luo spaced out for a moment.
She shook her head and walked over.
“Yun Feibai.”
Yun Feibai looked up to see Su Luo standing in front of him.
He stood up, smiled, and said, “You’re here, have a seat.”
As he spoke, he pulled out a chair for her.
Just like last time, the two of them kept their distance.
Su Luo asked, “Finished your Dungeon?”
Yun Feibai nodded, “Got an attribute point.”
Su Luo smiled, a little happy, and said, “I got two, so now we’re even.”
She still remembered how Yun Feibai snatched the BOSS and got an attribute point in their first assessment Dungeon.
Yun Feibai smiled as well and sent her a party invitation.
Su Luo clicked accept, and the two began to check each other’s stats.
This was another benefit of teaming up—they could directly view each other’s attributes and items.
[Yun Feibai]
[Player [Ji Hei] ]
[Class: Blood Clan Assassin]
[HP: 25 (+10)]
[Strength: 14 (+2)]
[Speed: 14 (+2)]
[Spirit: 7]
[Endurance: 11]
[Charm: 15]
[Points: 57]
[Innate Skill: Nightfall Descends (Legendary): Creates a 5-cubic-meter dark mist. The skill owner’s vision is unaffected. The mist deals 0.5 damage per second to enemies and feeds the damage back to the user. The skill owner can move freely within the mist.]
[Skill 1: Nether Stab: Briefly dashes forward, dealing damage equal to (Strength + Speed)/2. After each attack, restores 20% of the damage dealt as HP. (CD: 2 seconds)]
[Items:]
[1. Dark Dagger [Common] (Upgradeable) (Bound)]
[2. Favor Perfume: Can make NPCs lower their guard]
[3. Feign Death Pill: Eating half gives the user a feigned death state. If no one feeds the other half to the user, after ten days, the user will die for real 🙂 (Eating the whole thing at once does nothing!) -by Universe Company]
[4. Butterfly Card: When a butterfly flaps its wings in Brazil, it can cause a tornado in Texas a month later. Use this card to do something very small, but it will definitely result in a big change (but not necessarily a good one!)]
After looking at Yun Feibai’s panel, Su Luo felt she might have profited after all.
At least this guy’s starting stats were higher than hers, and he had plenty of items.
With a hidden class, he hardly even needed a Priest!
And that innate skill—truly worthy of legendary rank!
It could be used for both escape and attack.
After leveling up, the area of the dark space would probably increase.
It was really powerful!
Su Luo was marveling at this, not knowing that Yun Feibai was having similar thoughts.
Su Luo’s hidden class made her both offensive and defensive, easily able to play the underdog.
Her starting stats weren’t as high as his, but she didn’t need to split her attribute points.
He didn’t know what Su Luo went through in the last Dungeon, but she’d directly gotten a Common grade treasure that could even be upgraded—truly impressive!
And Su Luo’s innate skill—not only could it be used to escape, but it could also restore status.
It was almost ridiculously strong.
The two silently complimented each other in their minds, growing more and more satisfied, and the atmosphere became increasingly harmonious.
Su Luo smiled and asked:
“This Butterfly Card of yours is pretty interesting, huh?”
Ji Hei replied, “The story of the last Dungeon was triggered by a butterfly effect, which ended up wiping out an entire village. We needed to help their souls find release.”
Su Luo nodded, a little serious.
“Have you noticed the Butterfly Card’s description is kind of like the Feign Death Pill’s?”
Getting down to business, Yun Feibai also became serious, “Yeah, I suspect it’s also made by Universe Company.”
It had happened twice now, so Su Luo couldn’t help but suspect that Universe Company really existed—and was probably a giant entity.
But clearly, a company like that was still out of their reach for now.
So Su Luo didn’t dwell on it.
Su Luo thought for a moment and said, “If you use this Butterfly Card well, you could totally turn the tables in a pinch!”
