A Game for Everyone: God-Level Talent is Achieved Through Rolling In.

Nie Wan remembered that there was a level 2 mini-boss, the Mandrill, in this mountain.

Although it's only level 2, it's still an excellent level, so it's not easy to deal with.

Nie Wan first changed into all the poor-quality level 5 equipment she had secretly bought.

These pieces of equipment can only add 1-2 points to her attributes at most, but the combination of the clothing, armor, bracers, shoes, and various accessories still significantly increased her attributes.

With my health points increased several times, I've reached 800, which ensures I won't die from the mandrill's critical hits.

As long as she isn't killed in one hit, the Yanghe Powder she's crafted and various healing skills will ensure she stays alive and well.

With the equipment and passive skills she bought, which mainly increased health and speed, she was able to maintain high-speed movement through the forest after getting used to them.

With the newly learned skill "Little Flying Star Needle", defeating this excellent mini-boss will be no problem at all.

This is true.

After attracting the mandrill with a peach bought from a grocery store, Nie Wan then dodged and weaved through the forest alone, always managing to escape the mandrill's sharp claws.

The mandrill resembles a black monkey, but its arms are exceptionally long, its fangs are protruding, and its eyes gleam fiercely, making it quite frightening.

But as scary as it may seem, once you overcome your fear of its appearance, you'll discover that it actually only has one skill, and can only use basic attacks.

It's basically as powerful as a rock monster.

When the mandrill uses its vine entanglement skill, Nie Wan will be forcibly locked in and unable to dodge.

But that only lasts for a second. After that, the vines will untie, and you can immediately use the Rejuvenation spell to heal yourself and withstand the heavy blow from the mountain demon's charge.

While withstanding the attack, he applied blood-melting poison powder to the mandrill's body and rolled away to avoid its terrifyingly long arms.

Then a new round of pursuit began.

The mandrill will launch a skill attack every time its health drops by 10%.

Nie Wan responded methodically, dodging each attack successfully, and after half an hour, she finally managed to wear down the mountain demon to death.

This counts as the first kill of the boss, so there will definitely be special drops.

So, although Nie Wan never had much confidence in her luck, she still had some expectations for what she would get this time.

Congratulations on obtaining a Mandrill Fur (Excellent) x1

Congratulations! You have obtained Ghost Blood (Excellent) x1

Congratulations on obtaining the Monkey Leather Armor (Excellent) x1

Nie Wan raised an eyebrow slightly.

No way, aside from the props, everything else is from the assassins.

【Monkey Leather Armor】

[Skill: Deadly Strike (Normal)]

"Mysterious Concealment" is a stealth skill that lasts for ten minutes in combat. "Blood Seal" is a critical strike skill. After accumulating twenty combo points, using this skill to attack a vital point can deal up to 500% more damage.

These two pieces of equipment are considered top-tier items in the early game.

Unfortunately, it's not something she can use.

Mandrill pelts and demon blood are materials for making armor and medicine, but with her current secondary profession level, she doesn't need them yet.

Nie Wan was not discouraged.

After all, he knew exactly what kind of mafia he was.

After putting away her equipment, she got up and continued deeper into the mountains.

She didn't come here just to kill a mandrill; she's here to sustainably exploit the resources.

The mandrill spawns in a cave, and it respawns approximately every ten minutes.

Nie Wan spent five minutes getting to the location and another two minutes pulling on the vines in the cave to make a trap.

With three minutes remaining, she successfully found the treasure chest in the cave.

There is almost always a treasure chest near where a boss spawns.

Nie Wan certainly knew this theorem.

The treasure chest is of normal level and does not require a key; it can be opened in just ten seconds.

Upon opening, you will obtain a common-grade Flower Rain Silver Needle and a crude-grade Mountain Demon Soul Bead.

【Flower Rain Silver Needle】

[Equipment Description: The sound of Buddha's voice, the listening of Bodhi, a shower of flowers, illuminating the entire world.]

[Equipment Description: Intelligence +5, Spirit +3, Magic Attack +4%, Health +4%, Magic Defense +5%, Physical Defense +5%]

Although it doesn't have any skills, it does add a lot of attributes.

Although it's not as good as those two assassin weapons, it's not a complete loss.

But for Nie Wan, the important thing was not the equipment, but the Mountain Demon Soul Bead.

【Mandrill Soul Bead】

[Item Level: 2]

[Item Rank: Excellent]

[Item Description: The mandrill has piercing eyes and a huge mouth like a basin.]

[Item Description: A soul bead that can be inlaid into clothing or armor.]

[Item Description: Speed ​​+50%]

Soul beads, soul stones, gems, crystals... These items that can be socketed into equipment and dropped by monsters in the game are collectively referred to as gems by players later on.

Most gems are used to enhance attributes, and very few gems can increase skill levels.

But Nie Wan knew a use that few people knew.

Gems can be used to enhance talents.

Of course, it's impossible to directly enhance talent using the gem itself; some kind of transformation is required.

If the intermediate steps weren't so complicated, this use wouldn't have been known only to a few people like Nie Wan.

Moreover, even if gems can be used to enhance talents, it might be a waste to use some extremely useful gems to enhance talents.

For example, this mandrill soul bead.

It can increase speed by 50%. Such a huge bonus, even though it is only a level 2 excellent gem, will make ordinary players reluctant to replace it even when they reach level 40.

Before coming here, Nie Wan had spent five taels of silver at the tailor's shop to have two grooves cut into her crude clothes, which were now perfect for embedding the Soul Pearl.

After being inlaid, a dark bead immediately appeared on the simple green collar of the dress, its brilliance understated yet perfectly matched.

Nie Wan, however, chose to conceal the gemstone's appearance, causing the bead to disappear completely.

Although the beads are not visible, the effect is real.

Her speed attribute points remained unchanged at 12, which was the automatic bonus from leveling up and the slight bonus from the crude set. Converted to a visible value, it was 240. However, when she wore the Mountain Demon Soul Bead, her speed value increased by half, becoming 360.

Even ordinary assassins might not be as fast as her.
