Chapter 38: The First Challenge! Funeral Zombies!
"Smell Purification!"
Seeing Su Rou's face turn pale with disgust from the rotten stench, Qin Fan unhesitatingly cast 'Smell Purification' on both himself and Su Rou.
'Smell Purification,' like 'Eye of Appraisal,' is a general skill that any profession can learn.
"You even learned this skill..."
Su Rou immediately felt much better. The nauseating smell of decay transformed into fresh air, making her feel unprecedentedly comfortable.
"In secret realms, the environment can affect challengers, so I learned this skill just in case," Qin Fan said lightly.
Of course...
He mainly used his skill points to enhance his primary skills, leaving the leftover points for learning these occasionally useful general skills.
It’s important to note that every job changer can use skill points to strengthen their own professional skills.
Skills can be enhanced up to 100%.
And each time a skill is enhanced to 30%, 50%, 70%, and 100%, high-level skills gain new effects.
So skill points can not only be used to learn new skills but also to enhance the power of existing skills.
Currently, Qin Fan had only strengthened his 'Fire Dragon Bullet' to 5% with his skill points.
The higher the skill level, the more skill points are needed for enhancement.
This also indicates how precious skill points are.
Every job changer must be extremely cautious when using skill points to enhance or learn skills.
After all, skill points are not easily obtained.
The primary ways to acquire skill points are:
1. Leveling up, which grants attribute points and skill points.
2. Clearing secret realms, which rewards skill points.
3. Consuming rare and expensive natural treasures.
These are the three main methods.
"Don't be surprised, the battle is about to begin!" Qin Fan said seriously.
Su Rou nodded heavily, her expression becoming serious and focused.
As they delved deeper into the underground passage, the sense of impending danger grew stronger.
"They're coming..." Qin Fan whispered.
With his sharp senses, he clearly heard the hoarse, hungry growls of zombies from the end of the passage.
Clang!!
Qin Fan finally gripped the Xuanjing Earthscale Sword.
Tap!!
Instead of slowing down as he approached the monsters, he accelerated!
'Weapon Blessing!'
'Wind Blessing!'
Su Rou promptly cast buffs on Qin Fan!
Buzz!!
With these two skills, Qin Fan's Xuanjing Earthscale Sword gleamed brightly, increasing his attack power by 10% and his speed by 30%!
Just as Su Rou was about to cast more buffs on Qin Fan, she heard him say, "Save your mana, these two buffs are enough!"
With that, whoosh!!
Qin Fan leaped from the underground passage entrance, officially entering the first level of the 'Underground Tomb Maze!'
"Roar!!"
In the vast palace square, nearly a hundred zombie monsters roared furiously at the human who leaped into the air!
Tap!
Qin Fan's slender figure landed lightly in front of the horde of zombie monsters!
With 'Eye of Appraisal,' the detailed information of all the zombie minions was displayed before him!
[Monster: Funeral Zombie]
[Level: 17]
[Type: Humanoid Monster]
[Skills: Toxic Bite, Self-Destruct Toxic Mist]
[Grade: Silver★★★★]
[Note: Originally commoners, buried alive as funeral offerings upon the emperor's death, their intense resentment turned them into zombies, wandering the Underground Tomb Maze.]
...
No need to look further.
As a secret realm for the job change entrance exam, its level design was likely traditional.
The first level was a warm-up.
But even for a warm-up, there were nearly a hundred Funeral Zombies!
For reference, the first level of the Goblin secret realm Qin Fan cleared in the wild only had twenty or thirty goblins!
But here, there were nearly a hundred!
And each Funeral Zombie was level 17!
As always...
Yan Wang's exam were no joke.
"Roar!!"
Without any hesitation.
The horde of Funeral Zombies immediately charged at Qin Fan!
Their disgusting appearance, covered in maggots, was revolting.
Just out of the passage, Su Rou watched this scene, ready to cast more buffs on Qin Fan.
She knew her role well.
As a support profession, her job was to use all her strength to protect the frontline damage dealer!
However.
The next moment shocked Su Rou completely!
Whoosh!!
Qin Fan suddenly swung the Xuanjing Earthscale Sword forward, a blinding white sword energy burst forth with terrifying cutting power!
"Ahhh!!"
The Funeral Zombies at the front screamed as they were cut in half by Qin Fan's single strike!!
One hit kill!!
And he killed at least a dozen Funeral Zombies with one strike!
This...
Before Su Rou could express her shock.
Whoosh!!
Qin Fan lightly tapped his foot, leaping five meters into the air!
He also dodged the attacking Funeral Zombies from behind!
The zombies tried to reach up and grab Qin Fan in mid-air.
But Qin Fan quickly threw the Xuanjing Earthscale Sword towards Su Rou!
Ding!!
The sharp Xuanjing Earthscale Sword landed diagonally beside Su Rou.
Instead of falling and being swarmed by zombies, Qin Fan was pulled away by an unknown force, flying towards Su Rou!
At this moment...
Su Rou noticed that Qin Fan had tied a thread to the sword's hilt. As he threw the Xuanjing Earthscale Sword, his airborne figure was pulled along.
Boom!!
The next moment, the bellies of the dozen or so killed Funeral Zombies swelled and exploded with a boom, forming a five-meter-diameter toxic mist area!
'Self-Destruct Toxic Mist'!
It seemed that every Funeral Zombie would automatically trigger this skill upon death!
Moreover...
The close proximity of these zombies caused a chain reaction.
Boom boom boom!!
The result was a chain of self-destructions!
Puff puff puff!!
Green toxic mist formed, slowly spreading across the palace square!
And the surviving Funeral Zombies continued to charge at Qin Fan and Su Rou with their gaping, bloody mouths!
Su Rou, pale-faced, was about to ask how to handle this...
Whoosh!!
Qin Fan, calm and composed, charged out again!
Whoosh!!
Coldly, Qin Fan swung the Xuanjing Earthscale Sword, slashing down another dozen or so Funeral Zombies!
At the same time, he pulled several round objects from his 'internal space' and threw them at the zombies!
Immediately...
'Fire Dragon Bullet'!!
Roar!!
A fireball emitting intense heat morphed into a dragon's head and blasted towards the zombie horde!
