Since the system became my girlfriend

As for gems with the intelligence attribute, Feng Lixi, a priest with a healing focus, didn't have much need for them. She needed attributes like spirit or mana regeneration more, so the intelligence gem ultimately ended up in Su Rui's possession.

However, gem inlay requires a jeweler to drill holes, and Su Rui, who had obtained the Intelligence Gem, was unable to inlay it into his equipment, so he could only put it in his backpack for the time being.

However, once Su Rui finds a suitable jeweler, he won't be stingy with the intelligence gem. Unlike other players, Su Rui has a lot of growth-type equipment, so he doesn't have to worry about wasting the gem after socketing it due to equipment upgrades.

After putting away the Intelligence Gem, Su Rui walked towards Poppy's corpse and searched it.

Poppy's Canned Goods (Jewelry, Blue, Excellent Quality)

Use: Instantly gain 50 points to all attributes for 20 seconds! (5-minute cooldown!)

Equipment level: 12

This blue accessory doesn't add any attributes; it only has one effect, but that effect is incredibly powerful. At least when the player's level is relatively low, its effect is almost comparable to a divine artifact!

It's important to know that after level 10, players gain 10 attribute points for each level up. Five of these points are distributed equally, while the other five are allocated freely by the player. For players around level 10, a typical green item provides about 10 attribute points, while a blue item provides around 20. So, a total of 50 attribute points means that the difference between 25 levels is equivalent to the effect of a full set of blue items! Moreover, very few players at this level can actually assemble a full set of blue items.

So after activating Popeye's canned food, you will instantly have attributes that are more than 20 levels higher than your opponent, or it's like you're wearing a whole set of blue gear. This kind of attribute advantage is enough to turn the tide of battle!

"This thing is pretty good!" Su Rui said, holding up the piece of jewelry.

"It's good, you can keep it," Feng Lixi said from the side.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony." Su Rui immediately equipped himself with Popeye's canned food. He had no reason to be polite to Feng Lixi, and besides, with that equipment, it was just a low-level blue item, which Feng Lixi really wouldn't even look at.

"Brother Rui, where do we go next?" Feng Lixi asked. By this time, they had already cleared the entire dungeon, and there were no more monsters to fight.

“The normal dungeon refreshes once a day, let’s go back to town first,” Su Rui said. There were no more monsters to fight in the dungeon now, so there was no need for him and Feng Lixi to stay there any longer.

With a heavy heart, Su Rui dismissed the corpse guards, and then he and Feng Lixi left the instance using the return spell.

Although Hubert's dog-summoning skill gave Su Rui unparalleled monster-killing ability, he dared not take this undead creature around the city. Otherwise, he would definitely be hunted down by the people of the church, and even the city lord Daryl would not allow Su Rui to do so!

Although Daryl has tacitly approved of Su Rui's existence because of his mother's dying wish, he cannot allow Su Rui to swagger around his city with undead creatures!

So before returning to the city, Su Rui very considerately dismissed the corpse guards.

"Looks like I need to buy some teleportation scrolls!" Su Rui muttered to himself. These teleportation scrolls are sold at general stores, but they are a bit expensive, and the teleportation location is a random place on the outskirts of Xuanwu City.

However, for Su Rui, as long as he could teleport out of the instance and not be in Xuanwu City, that was enough, because at this time "Hidden Residence" had become an instance, so Su Rui could enter every day, fight Hubert once, and then help him summon a corpse guard.

After clearing the dungeon, Su Rui can use a teleportation scroll to send himself out of the dungeon. Once he reaches the outskirts, with such an invincible pet, Su Rui can grind monsters and level up like crazy.

With a flash of light, Su Rui and Feng Lixi returned to the central square of Xuanwu City.

After taking Feng Lixi and Su Rui to the general store, they spent a huge sum of two gold coins to buy a set of random teleportation scrolls. Then, the two of them prepared to log off, because it was not long before the lunch time that Feng Lixi had set.

After logging off, Su Rui washed his face, then went to Feng Lixi's house for a bittersweet lunch, chatted with her for a while, and at one o'clock in the afternoon, Su Rui and Feng Lixi returned to the game.

After returning to the game, since today's dungeon was on cooldown, the two of them first went to the Mercenary Guild to pick up some quests, and then went out of town to level up.

"Boss Su, are you free?" Just as Su Rui and Feng Lixi were leveling up, Hu Bo sent him a message.

"What's up?" Su Rui replied immediately. Hu Bo was one of his few friends, so Su Rui usually replied to his messages instantly.

"Going to a dungeon! What else could it be? Didn't you see the system announcement?" Because the two had a good relationship, Hu Bowei didn't hold back at all.

"At worst, I've already finished the game today, so you can find someone else," Su Rui said with a smile.

"Damn! You're the one who discovered that instance!" Hu Bowei had also worked as a professional gamer, so he understood as soon as Su Rui mentioned it.

"Is it very fresh?" Su Rui said with a hint of pride.

"Tch! You didn't even include me in this good thing," Hu Bo said, dissatisfied.

"You're not a girl, why would I take you along?" Su Rui rolled his eyes and said.

"If I'm not a girl, I can dress up as a woman! Brother Rui, help me out!" When Hu Bowei said the second half of the sentence, he actually used a fake female voice, which really disgusted Su Rui.

"What the hell! That's enough! You think you can seduce me? You'd have to be a 'one-man dragon' from Siam, Korea, and Japan!" Because Su Rui was close to Hu Bowei, he spoke without restraint in his anger. The "one-man dragon" he referred to meant undergoing sex reassignment surgery in Siam, plastic surgery in Korea, and then learning advanced techniques in Japan...

Because the two were so familiar with each other, they could talk without any taboos. But what Boss Su didn't know was that his supposedly secretive encrypted voice messages couldn't be hidden from the girl beside him!

Feng Lixi can monitor all communications within the entire "Source" world, let alone Su Rui, whom she is deliberately keeping an eye on. So even if Su Rui chats with others through encrypted voice, he can't hide it from her!

"One dragon? What does that mean?" Although she overheard the conversation between Su Rui and Hu Bowei, how could Feng Lixi, such an "innocent" girl, possibly understand the meaning behind such slang?

……

"Alright, I've almost gathered everyone here. After we finish the dungeon, can you help me with a quest?" Hu Bowei said after chatting with Su Rui for a bit.

"No problem! Call me when the time comes!" Su Rui nodded. He didn't have anything urgent to do anyway, so helping a friend was an option.
