Legend: One corpse-picking message per day

Chapter 19, Level 14: Elite Jumping Bee!
The connecting passage between Centipede Cave and Snake Valley is located within the fourth...

More than an hour later, a white light rose up!
He Sheng has finally leveled up!
Unwavering Devotion: Mage, Level 13

Health Points: 49 + 20
Mana: 145 + 40
Experience points: 33-15000
……

Leveling up deep in this map is barely acceptable... For the past hour, no one has disturbed them.

It refreshes approximately every five minutes, with a maximum of ten monsters and a minimum of a few each time...

With 20% more experience, He Sheng easily leveled up.

But in that hour or so, nothing good came out.

They're all just ordinary level 10 or so equipment...

The drop rate is so-so, you can't even make back the money spent on potions.

"Congratulations on leveling up!" Sweet Orange said with a smile.

He Sheng smiled gratefully and said, "Haha, we have to thank Brother Mu Shuiping."

Mu Shuiping shook his head and laughed, "Why thank me? I was just completing a school assignment."

As he spoke, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes. "Want one?"

Cigarettes, ordinary food, and clothing are all allowed to be brought in.

"I'll have one." Sweet Orange took it and lit it skillfully.

He Sheng shook his head, "No."

The original owner used to be a heavy smoker, and he smoked like crazy while mining in order to improve his skills.

He Sheng himself smoked quite a lot in his past life...

But now that he's already ill, how could He Sheng dare to smoke?
Health is the most important thing...

"What? Quit?" Sweet Orange blew a smoke ring into He Sheng's face; he didn't believe He Sheng would quit smoking.

She's definitely being reserved.

There aren't even any pretty girls here, so what are you being so reserved about?

He Sheng's reply was a small fireball: "Don't criticize me, I've really quit!"

"Holy crap! Your damage is that high? You hit me for 25 damage!"

Sweet Orange stared at He Sheng in shock!

After checking He Sheng's equipment again, he asked in the team chat with a puzzled look, "Do you have costumes? Or did you get monster cards or something?"

Of course, Sweet Orange wouldn't ask such a private question directly.

There are other players nearby.

"No, monster cards require level 15 to unlock, and the equipment encyclopedia requires level 20."

"He must have gotten some fashion items." Mu Shuiping glanced at He Sheng and pondered in the team chat.

Sweet Orange's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Fashion! Awesome! Show it to me!"

"Hehe, what fashion? Do you think I can kill that thing? High damage, maybe my attack power is a little higher." He Sheng laughed self-deprecatingly.

They gave a reason that wasn't really a reason...

Sweet Orange nodded with a smile: "Haha, that's true. Even the lowest-level outfit requires 10 outfit fragments, and you need to defeat elite or boss monsters, and there's no guarantee they'll drop."

"If you want to buy it, it's ridiculously expensive, hehe!"

He didn't believe his brother was capable of working in fashion.

Mu Shuiping nodded as well, but there was still doubt in his eyes.

In the end, he didn't ask anything. Perhaps this junior had his own extraordinary encounter.

After all, this world is vast and complex; it's not surprising that all sorts of extraordinary encounters can happen...

After fighting monsters for a while, the three of them took out some bread and other food and had a simple meal.

And then...

More than two hours passed after the turn, and He Sheng upgraded again!

Unwavering Devotion: Mage, Level 14

Health Points: 52 + 20
Mana: 161 + 40
Experience points: 22-30000
……

Level 14! Not bad, keep it up!

"It's so fast when someone's there to guide you," Sweet Orange said enviously.

He Sheng: "Hehe, it's not like you didn't receive any benefits from the school."

"Yes, but it wasn't Brother Mu Shuiping who took me. That guy just let me hang around in the Skull Cave for three days. Damn it!!!"

When it comes to the benefits at her school, Sweet Orange is on the verge of tears!

"Haha! Brother Mu Shuiping is still in charge." He Sheng laughed heartily... Just as they were talking and laughing, a loud commotion suddenly came from outside the corner.

A fat guy who failed to lose weight: "Holy crap! Elite Jumping Bee!"

Feng Yanbingxin: "Damn it! This is our monster!"

A fat person who failed to lose weight: "Damn it! Just because you say it's yours doesn't mean it's yours!"

Feng Yanbingxin: "Damn it! This thing is right here on our territory, how can it not be ours?"

The overweight person who failed to lose weight: "So what if it's yours? Get lost!"

"Holy shit! Damn it!!!"

……

After a barrage of insults, a fierce fight broke out...

"It looks like there's an elite monster. Should we go out and take a look?" Sweet Orange licked her lips, looking eager to try.

"Heh, with your level, are you going to go and get yourself killed?" He Sheng mocked without any politeness.

Mu Shuiping nodded: "That's right, we'd better not go, we won't be able to get anything even if we go."

He single-handedly carried two burdens to steal elite monsters?
Pull it down!

We should be grateful if others don't try to take our territory!

So the three of them remained unmoved and continued to wait for the refresh...

A little over a minute later, a scream rang out, clearly indicating that someone had died.

Upon hearing the scream, Sweet Orange visibly shuddered.

"Heh, you're scared just by the sound? You still want to go out and take a look?" He Sheng couldn't resist a sarcastic remark.

"Pshaw! I'm excited! Believe me or not, I could go out there and dominate the battlefield right now!" Sweet Orange stubbornly denied it, shrugging her shoulders!

"Heh..." He Sheng continued his mockery!
Before he could finish speaking, screams and curses continued to come from outside.

The sound of a teleportation scroll...

Then it gradually fell silent...

Suddenly there was silence, and the three of them looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Is it over? Or are they all dead?" Sweet Orange licked its lips.

"They've probably all run away?" Mu Shuiping asked uncertainly.

"Quick! Go out and take a look!" He Sheng urged.

Sweet Orange had already rushed out first, and the three of them were startled as they turned the corner!
In the relatively open area ahead, amidst a large group of monsters, stood a giant jumping bee flying in mid-air!
Elite Jumping Bee!
Several piles of equipment and potions had also fallen among the monsters...

"Holy crap! A platinum ring!"

Mu Shuiping's eyes lit up; he had spotted something valuable that someone had dropped!
"Quick, pick it up!"

"It's hard to pick up, there are too many monsters, and that elite jumping bee can attack from a distance."

“Let’s kill them one by one! Five minutes for the equipment to respawn is enough!” He Sheng suggested!

"Okay, I'll go lure a few over! You guys be careful!"

Mu Shui ran forward a few steps, and when he attracted the monster's attention, he immediately became invisible!

The monsters around him suddenly couldn't see him anymore and could only look around blankly...

Mu Shuiping ran back again, and this time, he pulled over six monsters!

Thankfully, the jumping bee didn't come over!

Bang!
He Sheng hurled a fireball at a zombie and immediately got to work!
In less than half a minute, the three of them cleared out the six monsters, and then Mu Shuiping ran to pull more monsters.

They pulled over five or six more!

After defeating the Elite Jumping Bee, there weren't many monsters around it anymore.

"I'll go up and distract them, you guys can take the opportunity to pick up the stuff!"

Mu Shuiping gave a few words of advice, then boosted his defense and magic resistance before charging forward!
As soon as it entered the Elite Jumping Bee's sensing range, it immediately buzzed and flew rapidly toward the wooden horizontal.

At the same time, poison needles were spat out at him from mid-air, each one dealing more than 25 points of damage to the wooden horizontal plane!

With that kind of damage, Mu Shuiping would definitely have no problem taking it on one-on-one.

The key issue is that the boss is surrounded by quite a few smaller monsters...

So, after rushing forward a few steps to lure the monster, he cast a healing spell on himself and immediately ran to the other side!
The monsters howled and followed behind him, clearing the space they had been in!

He Sheng and Tian Daju seized the opportunity to rush forward and frantically pick up the things on the ground...
