“This guy, I believe he will only stop after killing the Boss Monster of every Rookie Village.”
The Monitoring Department of Canglan Tech, a group of young men watched the Hunter kill a Mutated Slime King again.
“How did he even come up with the idea?”
The day before yesterday, the group of people suddenly discovered that someone had slain a Mutated Slime King. They curiously tracked down the Player and were astounded by what they saw.
A Player had slain the Mutated Slime King that many guilds were struggling against on his own!
They were even more shocked when they saw how the Player had killed the Mutated Slime King.
The trick the Player used was abusive, but they did not think it could be classified as a bug since digging a hole was nowhere enough to kill a Mutated Slime King. However, they still reported their findings. In the end, the AI “Twilight” actually approved the trick that the Player had used to kill the Boss Monster after some evaluation.
The group of young men did not have any complaints. After all, it did not really matter who ended up killing the Boss Monster first. Besides, it was a relief that someone had managed to kill the Mutated Slime King in the Chinese servers so soon. The Players in other servers were still struggling to kill the Slime King, let alone the Mutated Slime King.
“Holy cow! Another Scroll of Skill Mutation, he’s going to be rich!”
The Mutated Slime King had a massive drop again. The group of young men was not allowed to play the game because of the contract they were bound to. Their only way to enjoy it was by watching the Players fight the Boss Monsters. They could not help but feel nervous when they saw the Hunter kill the Boss Monster. They screamed out in excitement as soon as they saw the loots that the Mutated Slime King dropped.
“The Scroll of Skill Mutation, I bet it’s something that only mutated Boss Monsters would drop. The Mutated Slime King is clearly the easiest mutated Boss Monster in the whole game.”
“It must be! From what I know, it’s extremely difficult for other Boss Monsters to mutate, not to mention how difficult it is to kill them after their strength rises significantly due to the mutation!”
“I remember every mutated Boss Monster will only drop a limited number of Scrolls of Skill Mutation in a certain period, right?”
“Every mutated Boss Monster will only drop a few. It will only reset after a very long time.”
“So that means if he keeps killing the Mutated Slime King, he might be able to claim all the Scrolls of Skill Mutation that the Mutated Slime King can drop!”
It was already impressive for a Player to have a mutated skill in the game. It was crazy to think that a Player would have several mutated skills!
“I don’t think killing mutated Boss Monsters is the only to obtain the Scroll of Skill Mutation. Did you forget? Someone has found two Scrolls of Skill Mutation and a bunch of insane loots yesterday,” someone in the group mentioned.
The others immediately realized something.
There were things that they still did not know about the next-generation game.
Meanwhile, Chen Mo seemed discontented after picking up the loots that the Mutated Slime King had dropped.
Why was he not satisfied? It was already his third time killing the Mutated Slime King, but it had only dropped a Scroll of Skill Mutation this time. Apart from it, there were only two Green Equipment and nine Blue Equipment. There was no Slime King accessory and no Purple Equipment. He did not even get anything after using the Gathering Skill on the Mutated Slime King’s remains.
“Again, there’s no way I can’t get a full set of Purple Equipment. Inoch, just you wait!”
Chen Mo was a very patient man. He went back to the Rookies Village, placed his belongings in the storage, and executed the command to kill his character again.
…
“About time, it finally drops a Purple Equipment!”
Two days later, Chen Mo had killed the Mutated Slime King for the fifth time.
The drops yesterday was the worst. He only got a Green Equipment, but today, the Mutated Slime King finally had insane drops again. It was a Purple Equipment; it was a crossbow!

Chen Mo was overjoyed when he saw the details of the Minor Poison Crossbow.
It was all worth it!
This purple crossbow was so good, better than the weapons he had seen on the forum so far!
The damage of crossbows was lower than other types of weapons, but this Level 10 crossbow’s base damage was higher than most of the weapons that the Players had looted so far. The value of extra attributes to Strength was impressive too, with +1 Skill Level to Hunter’s Minor Poison Bolt and Assassin’s Poison Torment. It even had an additional effect. Chen Mo bet he could easily sell it for fifty thousand yuan!
It went without saying that Chen Mo had no plan to sell it, at least for the time being!
The Minor Poison Crossbow was his biggest reliance to defeat Inoch. He could now kill the Mutated Slime King twice as faster with it.
It took him around twenty minutes to kill the Mutated Slime King, which meant he only needed around ten minutes to kill the Mutated Slime King with the Minor Poison Crossbow!
He had acquired the weapon he needed. He just needed four other defensive equipment and two accessories before having the final showdown with Inoch!
Chen Mo was a lot more motivated after acquiring the new weapon. He went back to Aiur Town and could not wait to kill his character again.
Chen Mo went offline when it was almost daytime. He decided to take a rest.
Before he went to bed, he browsed the forum to check on the current progress of the other Players.
Even though he was busy killing the Mutated Slime King, he had to stay updated with the latest information too.
He was not the only one being hired to find a loophole. It was important to learn about the latest information on the forum.
Nothing important happened in the past few days. There were only two topics among the Players.
One was the Trial of Innate Talents available to the Players after leaving the Rookies Village. The Players had proven that the better their results during the Trial of Innate Talents, the better their innate talents would be.
However, the Trial of Innate Talents was not the only way to receive the Innate Talents. Some Players had unlocked the Innate Talents after reaching a certain level too. However, it was obviously better to unlock these Innate Talents earlier.
The second topic was about the difference between day and night in the game.
According to the Players that had moved on to the three main human cities, it was better not to go out at night. Not only was their vision limited in the wild at night, but the monsters’ attributes were also significantly higher too. Those without proper equipment would die to the monsters easily when going out at night.
However, some people had different opinions on it.
The monsters at night might be stronger, but the Players would obtain more experience killing them too. Besides, there were monsters and NPCs that only appeared at night too. Players could accept rare quests from these NPCs and be rewarded handsomely.
It was a must to have good equipment to hunt monsters at night. It was extremely difficult to level up past Level 10, which was why a Player’s equipment was so important. Even the supply of Blue Equipment above Level 10 was significantly lower than the demand in the three human cities, let alone the supply of higher quality equipment.
…
Two days were gone in the blink of an eye.
Chen Mo was a lot stronger after acquiring the Minor Poison Crossbow. The Mutated Slime King no longer stood a chance against him.
After a familiar cry, a pile of glittering loots fell to the ground. Chen Mo’s eyes suddenly widened when he saw a piece of familiar equipment!
