I Have 100M Summoning Scrolls - Chapter 24
Chapter 24: Let Us Level Up Tonight to Our Heart’s Content
“Hotblooded!” Zhang Yun waved his hand and used his skill on Brother Mikoto who was massacring the magical beasts not too far away.
Instantly, a red aura appeared around Brother Mikoto, and the speed at which he was wielding his katana had suddenly increased.
He immediately used this advantage and spun his katana, and instantly killed three magical beasts that were standing close together.
Then, several system prompts entered Zhang Yun’s vision. There were prompts of Brother Mikoto managing to kill the magical beasts, as well as prompts that he had gained XP.
“Nice!
“I can still use that method!
“The XP that I gained was also not reduced!
Using Legacy skills to buff up followers, letting them kill enemies while the players were hiding behind them and taking a share of XP was the fastest way that players in the game gained levels initially, as well as the primary method of how players leveled up during the late game.
Otherwise, if the players themselves had to go and fight, one would have to wonder how long would it take for them to keep up with their followers’ levels by just looking at their low efficiency in killing monsters. That was even before looking at the players that were playing with a stylus or just plain bad that they probably could not beat the monsters.
That was why despite the developers knowing that they were exploiting the system, they had never changed the system. It had been used from the day the server went online to its shutdown.
But what Zhang Yun did not expect was that he could still use this way in the other world, and the XP he gained was not even reduced.
To tell the truth, he thought that the cheat-like settings such as “dropping loot from killing monsters” would be deleted by that unknown power…
“Ah well, I should stop thinking about it. As long as it was not deleted, then all I needed to do was to simply get carried and get the XP.
“Brother Mikoto, take your time but do not go too far! I still have to buff you!
“I guess I could reach level 20 tonight too…”
After giving it a thought, Zhang Yun then turned his attention towards the Murloc squads.
What could he do? Those normal followers’ intelligence was quite worrying. If he did not watch over them every now and again and give them detailed instruction, they would definitely do something stupid and get beaten up by the magical beasts.
Just as he had thought. He had simply paid them no attention for a moment, and the followers started doing stupid things again…
“Murloc Group Number Three, what are you doing? What the hell are you doing? That is a rock! Not a monster! Why are you attacking it?
“Fire Elemental, can you aim better? You just lit up another person’s house! And you have missed all your attacks!
“Lightning Elemental! Predict! Do you know what prediction is? Someone is attacking you but you still throw your skill at where it has already passed through! Can you not throw your skill right in front of you?
“Yeah! Right, right! That is right! The Ice Elemental’s prediction is quite good!
“Watch carefully!
“Er… What are you guys doing? Murloc Group Number 8, you are almost out of HP and you still do not know that you should retreat? You still rush into the monster horde?
“Come back now, I will use some items on you!”
‘Sigh.
‘I am tired.
‘I really wish I could summon a few more Brother Mikotos.
‘Oh well. Victory comes with perseverance. I should continue to save. Who knows if something like earlier might happen, and something would kill all the followers that I had already summoned…’
Just as he was thinking about it, a system prompt suddenly jumped out.
[Warning! Boss Creature “Ancient Bear” appeared!]
“Boss?
“It finally came out?
“Where is it?”
Zhang Yun was shocked and quickly looked around, trying to find the boss’ figure.
However, before he could even scan his entire surroundings, the system’s prompt once again came out.
[Prompt: Mikot dealt 3,210 physical damage to the Ancient Bear. Bonus 1230 magic damage.]
[Prompt: Mikot dealt 2,459 physical damage to the Ancient Bear. Bonus 876 magic damage.]
[Prompt: Mikot used the skill “Blazing Sword – Destroy the Evil Spirit” and dealt 6,120 physical damage to the Ancient Bear. Bonus 5,310 magic damage.]
[Boss Creature “Ancient Bear” has been killed!]
Zhang Yun, “???”
‘Wait!
‘Brother Mikoto, did you just attack thrice in one second?
‘And instantly killed that boss?
‘Can you even be more powerful?’
Unfortunately, Brother Mikoto could not hear the marvel in Zhang Yun’s mind and kept on killing enemies at his own pace. His katana with the burning flames shining in the night was like a grail of light that could dispel the darkness.
Zhang Yun was not going to interfere, and simply let Brother Mikoto act on his own. He himself went on to collect all the magical beasts’ corpses, and when his skill’s cooldown had expired, he then used another “Hotblooded” on Brother Mikoto.
Compared to the Murloc squads, Brother Mikoto was around two or three times faster in terms of the speed he was killing monsters. Since he was going to share XP in order to increase his levels, it would definitely be more efficient if he used Hotblooded on Brother Mikoto.
If he only wanted to do his quest, then it would be more efficient if he used them on the Murlocs, since there were more of them and it would be a more effective use of Hotblooded as well.
In truth, the best way was for Brother Mikoto to join together with the Murlocs, and they could separate after he used Hotblooded on them. But that would waste too much time, and from the numbers of magical beasts that were spawning, it was not worth the loss…
After killing for a while, Zhang Yun and his followers managed to go deeper into the magical beast horde.
As the Murlocs had reached level 20, and their skill and class levels had both increased somewhat, they could already face an even greater number of magical beasts on their own with the war god Brother Mikoto watching their flanks.
Therefore, Zhang Yun had ordered his followers to come out from the small alleys that he was defending and into the larger streets where there were many more magical beasts.
Facing the larger numbers of monsters and more concentrated attacks, the Murlocs were still as fearless and became even braver as they fought, and rushed towards where the magical beasts were coming from.
Brother Mikoto had also joined them, opening a path as the vanguard, and attacking the monsters until they cried out in pain and suffering.
Zhang Yun was also following from behind, being opportunistic and used the Hotblooded skill as necessary. He had managed to get a lot of XP as well, as his level had reached 17.
Not only that, due to him using Examine to check the enemies, his Examine skill had also increased several levels. He could even check the information of enemies that were of higher levels.
“Not bad!
“Continue to march onward!
“Let us level up tonight to our heart’s content!”
