Since the system became my girlfriend

Su Rui didn't bother arguing with the rude guard, after all, he was just an NPC with little intelligence. The reason he treated him like that was because his reputation with Daryl had been lowered.

"Click!" Su Rui opened the box directly.

"Whoosh!" An orange light flashed, and Su Rui took out a piece of equipment from the box.

Spellbreaker Cloak (Back, Orange Legendary Quality)

Physical Defense: +25

Magic Defense: +25

Intelligence: +10

Constitution: +5

Endurance: +10

Equipment: Grants you the passive skill – Magic Feedback!

Equipment: Grants you the active skill – Mana Burn!

Equipment: When your skills hit an opponent, they will be marked with the Mark of the Spellbreaker.

Equipment: Your melee basic attacks dealing 10% of the target's maximum health as damage to targets marked with the Spellbreaker's Mark. Cooldown: 15 seconds! (Maximum damage dealt to bosses cannot exceed 50% of your maximum health!)

Equipment level: 10

It is bound upon pickup, cannot be traded, and cannot be dropped.

Inscription: Mage? A laughable clown! — Adurath, the Mage Terminator

Magic Feedback: Your skill damage will also consume the opponent's mana, energy, stamina, or rage.

Mana Burn: Instantly burns 50% of the target's mana, dealing damage equal to 50% of the mana lost. (Ineffective against bosses of boss level or higher!)

"It's a legendary cloak?!" After picking up the equipment, Su Rui couldn't help but look at Daryl with even greater respect. This guy was really generous, actually giving out such a special reward.

This cloak truly lives up to its name; it's a mage's nemesis! Both its active and passive skills can drain the opponent's mana. Basically, once Su Rui gets close, any class that relies on mana becomes nothing more than a melee minion! If it's a mage, a class with low health and extremely high mana, it's even worse. One Mana Burn, and they're practically dead. Su Rui can easily follow up with some other skills, and the mage will be instantly defeated!

Although the cloak is only level 10 and doesn't have many additional attributes, its accompanying skill is incredibly powerful. It can be used up to level 30 or even 40 without any problems!

"Upgrading from a slingshot to a cannon!" Su Rui smiled slightly, then equipped the cloak. This thing was also untradeable, so selling it for money was out of the question. Moreover, even if it could be sold, Su Rui would never sell such a threatening piece of equipment.

Ultimately, Boss Su himself is a spellcaster and relies on mana. Although he has much more health than the average spellcaster, if that health falls into the hands of a rogue, he will become a melee soldier and unable to use any skills when dealing with Su Rui.

After equipping the Spellbreaker Cloak, Su Rui was too lazy to bear the guards' glares anymore. He left the city lord's mansion and prepared to return to the mercenary guild to see if there were any missions available.

After leaving the city lord's mansion, they walked around the small square and soon arrived at the mercenary guild. Before Su Rui could even enter, he was slapped on the back.

"Who is it?!" Su Rui was startled, only to see a pretty little face smiling sweetly at him.

“Me?” Feng Lixi said with a smile.

"Xiao Xi, did I tell you... that scaring people can be deadly..." Su Rui rolled his eyes.

"Who told you to be so careless and cowardly..." Feng Lixi said, pouting.

"Okay, okay! It's all my fault..." Su Rui surrendered decisively. He didn't want to argue with his girlfriend because there was no benefit in it. It wasn't a question of whether he could win or not, but rather that winning would only bring more misfortune.

According to Darwin's theory of evolution, some men did win arguments with their girlfriends, but they later went extinct because they lost their girlfriends...

"By the way, Xiaoxi, have you registered for mercenaries yet?" Su Rui changed the subject.

“Registered!” Feng Lixi nodded.

"Did you change jobs?" Su Rui asked again. If Feng Lixi also changed jobs, he could take the girl to do missions.

"I switched, I switched to a priest." Feng Lixi said with a smile. She said this so that when she played the game with Su Rui, she could stay in the back and leisurely heal others without revealing too much information about herself.

"Huh?!" Su Rui was stunned. Based on the elegant swordsmanship that Feng Lixi had shown before, it was really unexpected that she had switched to being a priest.

However, Su Rui was only slightly surprised. He was a womanizer, not a gigolo. (Feng Lixi: Really not? Su Rui: Anyway, I absolutely refuse to admit that I'm a gigolo! Feng Lixi: Whatever makes you happy...).

Therefore, the girl's combat power is not important. It would be good if Feng Lixi switched to a priest, so that she wouldn't have to look for a healer when teaming up for quests or dungeons in the future.

After confirming that Feng Lixi had changed jobs, Su Rui took the girl into the Mercenary Guild, and then the two of them went to the quest board.

"Any new missions?" Su Rui asked the female NPC. He had already looked at the previous missions, and there weren't any good ones. Most of them were missions like finding a dog to deliver a message, which was time-consuming and had poor rewards.

"My lord, Ricardo, a wealthy merchant from the east of the city, just posted a bounty quest. Are you interested?" The female NPC showed Su Rui the quest details.

Mission Objective: Rich merchant Ricardo has lost a shipment of important goods in the west of the city and hopes someone can help him find them!

Quest Level: 12

Danger/Difficulty: High

Quest Rewards: 5000 Experience Points! 50 Silver Coins!

"This mission is great!" Su Rui's eyes lit up. Although this mission to retrieve the goods did not give any items, the experience reward it provided was quite high, as many as 5,000 experience points, and there was also a reward of 50 silver coins.

Silver coins in the game are not very attractive to Su Rui now, after all, Boss Su currently has sixteen gold coins in his pocket, but five thousand experience points are too tempting for him. If you include the bonus from the special mercenary, that's five thousand five hundred points. If he does a few more tasks like this, he can level up!

“Let’s take this mission!” Su Rui said to Feng Lixi as he turned around.

“Okay!” Feng Lixi naturally had no objections.

"Ding! Feng Lixi has joined your team!" Su Rui first added Feng Lixi to his team, and then accepted the quest from the quest board.

"My lord, you can ask Ricardo for details!" the female NPC suggested.

"Okay! Thanks for the reminder!" Su Rui nodded. Although he was very polite, the female NPC still had a cold face, as if Su Rui owed her money.
