Chapter 48: Chapter 47: I’ve Become Stronger but I’m Not Bald (Please Follow and Vote for More~) _1

Translator: 549690339

Outside of the territory, a faint white mist shrouded the forest, making the sunlight scattering through the treetops and falling on the ground particularly dim.

In front, shrubs were uprooted whole, sturdy trees tumbled over, and fresh blood flowed; the scene was a complete mess.

Mu Yuan quickly switched his viewpoint back to the territory, and, while sending out Battle Falcon to notify Dead Bone, he also directed some guards from the territory to rush over.

Without someone like Dead Bone, who had already awakened his self-awareness, to lead, ordinary skeletons would easily get lost when leaving the territory. However, this place was not far from the territory, so it wasn’t difficult for the guards to get here.

At this point, Duo Lai, Bone Two, Bone Three and other skeletons had already begun to drag the bodies of the goblins together, preparing for the burning purification ceremony.

Of course, before purification, the equipment on these goblins had to be stripped off.

Weapons and equipment were innocent.

Duo Lai knew the way to save innocent equipment well.

Mu Yuan, on the other hand, commanded Bone Four and the rest of his forces to rescue the wounded.

Although no skeletons died in this battle, almost all of them were injured. Bone Two had a few broken ribs, Duo Lai still had spear after spear embedded in him, making him look like a porcupine.

Several archers and Skeleton Soldiers were gravely wounded, the severity of the combat was no less than his first life battle where he commanded Little Skeleton to fight the Grey Wolf.

The most seriously injured were the archers.

They were fragile to begin with and had been pierced in the abdomen by wooden spears, their flowing fresh blood was an alarming sight.

If these archers were actual human beings, they likely would have fainted in shock even if they hadn’t died from blood loss.

But fortunately, they were not; they were combat units.

Even when seriously injured, they still retained some combat power, appearing as if they could still struggle to fight another battle.

Even so, Mu Yuan dared not take it lightly.

This is a Remnant Soul Archer that’s worth 4-5OOg of Soul Sand!

He quickly took out the elixir from the previous aid package from the guild and started to treat the severely injured units. For the unfortunate Skeleton Soldiers who couldn’t use healing potions, they could only stabilize their condition by consuming Soul Sand slowly.

Although the battle was fierce, the gains were not insignificant.

Not considering the second-hand equipment stripped off from the goblins, they also dropped a lot of Soul Sand and several Remnant Souls.

“Gobble Gobble.”

Duo Lai looked at the Soul Sand, greedily salivating to the point that tears flowed from its eyes, but it still reluctantly pushed the pile of Soul Sand toward Mu Yuan.

It shed tears of reluctance.

“i35-7g of Soul Sand.”

More than the total loot from the previous goblin camp, yet this batch of goblins was fewer in number, which was evidence enough to prove that they were all elites.

Mu Yuan fed Duo Lai 20g of Soul Sand, its LED-screen-like eyes instantly changed from (-q-7 a ^-) to (OwO). Its expression changed in a second.

Merely over a hundred grams of Soul Sand was no longer attractive to Mu Yuan, but the eight unidentified Remnant Souls and two two-star Remnant Souls did manage to comfort his wounded spirit slightly.

“On balance, the loot from this battle is worth about a thousand grams of Soul Sand, but, factoring in equipment and recovery item loss, the net profit is around six to seven hundred grams,” he estimated.

Considering this, it was, after all, a significant victory for him.

No wonder some veterans lost everything in just one loss.

Lord-level players have a territory as a safety net, but sometimes the damages from battles are heart-wrenching.

“Indeed, ‘Eternal World’ is still too dangerous, we mustn’t let down our guard at any time.”

In the real world, inside an old house.

Mu Yuan was tapping rapidly on his keyboard, searching the forums for related information.

About the abnormal goblins.

However, the information was sparse. Occasionally, there were indeed players who encountered exceptionally elite goblins that understood ambushes and correct formations, but they were barely described.

Moreover, those who had these experiences were all veterans. He, a pitiful greenhand, was actually targeted by the goblins?

This had to be the world’s fault!

Of course, it could also be that similar experiences happened to fresh Lords, but if they were beaten completely upon first contact, naturally, no information would be leaked.

“In any case, one must be more careful when exploring in the future. The goblin camp also needs to be wiped out as soon as possible. The name of the goblin has filled an entire page in the ‘death wish’ book of Dead Bone.”

“However, there’s another important matter at hand.”

Today’s encounter has made Mu Yuan understand how fragile the human body is.

Indeed, he was just a bit away from a disfigurement and his amulet still had two charges of protection, but…

What if Old Silver Coin was a rare-level monster?

What if there were professional-level monsters sneaking and ambushing him?

What if a huge fireball suddenly fell from the sky?

In short, the Eternal World is too dangerous, and the human body is too weak. Even though he had eaten a lot of RedBlood Fruits and could almost run a kilometer in three minutes, he was still weak in front of all kinds of extraordinary monsters.

No matter how he tried to protect his troops, he could not change the fact that he himself was the fatal weakness.

Protection has its limit.

So he,

needed to become stronger.

“Ding! The product you exchanged for is to be delivered, please sign for it.”

Mu Yuan went downstairs to receive the package, returned to his bedroom, input the password, and opened the box.

Suddenly, six shiny Soul Crystal Coins and a cultivation liquid filled with milky white liquid appeared before him.

Mu Yuan picked up the cultivation liquid.

The Jiuxuan Cultivation Liquid!

It was said that this product comes from the territory of a top-level boss, it is the best treasure for newcomers to improve themselves and lay a solid foundation, second to none.

Unlike the Dragon Blood Fruit and King Kong Fruit, which bring great improvements to players while also changing the player’s physical characteristics, narrowing the player’s future path and suitable treasures.

It could even turn a player into something other than human.

If one uses a Heritage Stone to solidify their profession, it would limit their potential. A lord with even a bit of ambition wouldn’t do that.

Mu Yuan took the Jiuxuan Cultivation Liquid, looked at the instruction manual, and found that advanced treasures seem to only require a plain usage method.

In that case, he unscrewed the cap and chugged it down in one go.

Gurgle gurgle-

The cultivation liquid began to take effect, but it didn’t seem to bring the pain that the RedBlood Fruit did. He only felt warmth throughout his body, as if he was soaking in a life spring, and both his body and soul were sublimated.

“Ah—”

What a refreshing and comfortable feeling.

He felt as if he was floating in the air, like falling into the clouds.

When the effect of the medicine gradually faded and he started to come back to reality, he checked the time and found that more than four hours had passed.

“Have I become stronger?”

Mu Yuan looked down at himself. His muscles hadn’t changed, but…

The dust in the bedroom, the tiny cracks on the walls, the mosquitoes buzzing around in the distance, everything was crystal clear in his sight.

Even areas his eyes couldn’t reach behind him, he could faintly sense.

He stretched out his hand, pinched the buzzing mosquito between two fingers, as breeze and clouds.

He looked down at himself, faintly sensing the flow of energy inside him.

He stood up, he spun, he leapt and moved.

Mu Yuan placed both hands on his waist, charging his energy, a faint white light even emerged from his palms.

He had indeed become stronger, much stronger!

“If I used to have the combat power equivalent to a Level Two Little Skeleton, now…”

He thought he could take on a Level Seven Skeleton Soldier, fight against ten Little Skeletons.

But this is just secondary.

The Jiuxuan Cultivation Liquid greatly improved his spiritual power, Mu Yuan could detect the existence of troops like Dead Bone even without incorporating them into his imprint.

If he continues to improve, maybe without the aid of a computer or other medium, he can directly oversee his territory.

If Old Silver Coin dare to ambush him again, Mu Yuan will show him what cruelty is.

“Is this what it feels like to become stronger?”

“It’s pretty nice-“
