“This skill scroll is quite something!’1 Song Jian picked up the blue-quality Skill Scroll and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise;

“Skill Scroll: Jumping Shot, Effect: Use to learn the Jumping Shot skill; Jumping Shot: A passive skill that produces a moving effect when attacking with normal attacks or skills to the target, causing a short displacement in the direction of the movement while launching a long-range physical attack. This skill is one of the inheritance skills for the Spear of Vengeance profession.’1

“Profession inheritance skills, so this game really has professions!’1 Song Jian stroked his chin, his face revealing a thoughtful expression.

“Little Cheap Brother, I can use this skill, I can!” Li Ke’er raised her right hand high and anxiously shouted while tugging at Song Jian’s clothes.

“Alright, here you go!” Song Jian smiled faintly, handing the Skill Scroll to Ke’er;

“Spear of Vengeance? Sounds cool!” Li Ke’er took the scroll and used it directly.

“Ah, it turns out that you need to collect five skills to inherit this profession!’1 Li Ke’er showed a troubled expression on her face.

As she spoke, Li Ke’er shot a crossbow bolt into the distance. As she fired the bolt, her body involuntarily jumped a short distance to the side;

“Very agile!” Song Jian’s eyes brightened.

“Hehe, yeah, and I can control the direction of movement, but it’s a bit difficult…” Li Ke’er said and shot another arrow; this time, she directly collided with a big tree;

Thump-

“Ah, it hurts!” Li Ke’er’s forehead turned red, and she looked at Song Jian with teary, aggrieved eyes;

“Practice well. 1 feel that this profession inheritance must be very powerful,” Song Jian said to Li Ke’er with a serious nod.

Li Ke’er rubbed her forehead and grinned, not daring to continue trying, and quietly followed behind Song Jian;

“Let’s go, keep moving forward!” Song Jian ruffled Ke’er’s hair, took her hand, and continued walking forward;

Not far behind them, in a clump of trees, Zhao Sihai’s face showed a surprised expression. He had once tried to hunt the monsters in this park but ended up fleeing in a sorry state;

“Even if he’s a level 7 expert, this killing speed is a bit too fast…” Zhao Sihai hesitated, unsure whether it was the right choice to continue following. If Song Jian discovered him, his fate would be predictable.

“Killing here is no different from killing in reality. 1 don’t believe he would really lull me!” Zhao Sihai’s bloodshot eyes revealed a crazed expression, similar to when he was destitute and stalking a woman carrying an LV handbag at night.

It was this craziness that allowed Zhao Sihai to seize every opportunity. In his forties, he went from being a street thug to the chairman of the largest listed company in Coastal City;

“This time, I will definitely succeed, achieving the same success in this game world as 1 have in the real world.” Zhao Sihai’s crazed expression grew thicker, but his mind was clear and his face calm.

Song Jian and Li Ke’er made their way forward, encountering many “Strong Mutated Zombies” along the way, but with the pair’s combined attack, these monsters all turned into piles of materials;

Li Ke’er practiced “Jumping Shot” throughout the journey. Whenever she was not careful, she would collide with trees, rocks, and pillars, turning her forehead red and making her teary eyes look pitiful;

However, Li Ke’er was very strong and did not give up her practice of “Jumping Shot” even after failing again and again, continuing to use it for her attacks;

“Little Cheap Brother, 1 always feel like someone is watching us…”

After killing a “Strong Mutated Zombie,” Li Ke’er signaled for Song Jian to bend down and whispered in his ear.

Upon hearing this, a trace of coldness appeared at the corners of Song Jian’s mouth. He had always thought it was his imagination, but since Ke’er felt it too, that meant the feeling of surveillance was real;

“It doesn’t matter. Some people want to follow us and take advantage of us, or even harm us, but our benefit is not so easy to pick…” Song Jian whispered in Ke’er’s ear;

The two of them exchanged a smile and pretended nothing had happened, picking up the items dropped by the monsters and continuing to move forward;

Through his 8x scope, Zhao Sihai could clearly see Song Jian bending down and talking to Li Ke’er while smiling, but he didn’t know sign language and had no idea what they were saying. He thought they were happy because of the items dropped by the monsters.

“You’re quite happy now, but there will be a time when you cry…” A confident smile emerged at the corners of Zhao Sihai’s mouth.

On their journey, Song Jian and Li Ke’er cleared out every monster they encountered, allowing Zhao Sihai to follow behind them smoothly.

Song Jian and Li Ke’er spent more than two hours clearing out the monsters they encountered along the way and finally arrived at a small forest.

The small forest before them resembled the one where Song Jian had found the Tree Spirit initially. There were no sounds of insects or birds chirping, only cold, eerie winds blowing from the forest, emitting a deep howling sound;

Song Jian stood at the edge of the forest, shivering involuntarily. It was daytime, and the sun was shining overhead, but Song Jian felt like he was in a haunted place;

As Song Jian looked ahead, the whole forest appeared hazy gray. On the black barren ground, the trunks of the trees were covered in black stripes, forming bizarre patterns that looked like stretched and twisted human figures;

The environment here was oppressive and gloomy, and deep in the forest, one could vaguely see a large group of stone tablets randomly embedded in the ground, looking like a discarded graveyard from afar;

“Little Cheap Brother, this place is so scary. Do we really have to go in?” Li Ke’er wore a frightened expression, clinging tightly to Song Jian’s clothes;

“Don’t be afraid, it’s just a game!” Song Jian patted Ke’er’s head, comforting her softly, although in truth, his heart was pounding as well;

Huu, huu-

Breaths resounded through the forest, as if a prehistoric behemoth was exhaling;

“The BOSS information provided by Zhao Sihai is here…” Song Jian frowned, the forest before him giving him an uneasy feeling and a strong urge to stay away from it;

At that moment, Li Ke er suddenly exclaimed, “Eh, Little Cheap Brother, the trees here can also be harvested, and the grade seems to be much higher than the previous forest!”

Song Jian stared at a tree covered in black stripes, and after a moment, faint yellow words appeared on the tree;

“Yin Soul Ghost Tree: Material, Gatherable, with a certain chance of collecting Yin Soul Wood; Gathering Requirement: Chopping Skill Level 3”
