Chapter 44: Someone’s Treating a Boss Like a Minion?
[Transaction Completed: Materials Sufficient. Do you want to upgrade the Anti-evil Crossbow to Level 4?].
[Upgrade Completed: Anti-evil Crossbow has been upgraded to Level 4.].
[Reminder: When weapons and equipment reach Level 5, an additional subattribute slot will be unlocked.].
After a flurry of transactions on the trading market, Su Mu casually sold the equipment dropped by the Lost Warrior boss for 40 energy stones.
Though the set wasn’t particularly high-quality, it was still practical and well-rounded. For survivalists lucky enough to discover energy stone mines but lacking reliable gear, it could be a game-changer.
Using the energy stones and materials he earned, Su Mu immediately upgraded his Anti-evil Crossbow to Level 4. The weapon had now gained an 80% increase in damage compared to when he first obtained it. Its effectiveness against undead creatures had also significantly improved.
Once the crossbow reached Level 5, it would unlock an additional subattribute slot—a tempting upgrade that made Su Mu grin in anticipation.
However, the upgrade requirements this time were no joke:
[Upgrade Requirements: Crushed Gold Grass x50, Energy Stones x500, Sacred Crystal x1].
[Reminder: This upgrade will significantly enhance the equipment’s attribute panel.].
The cost was far too steep for now. A Level 4 Anti-evil Crossbow was more than enough. There was no need to rush.
“What’s our next target, Master?”
Little Knife, Mu Ran, sat atop the hilt of her main body, watching Su Mu work with undisguised curiosity. She had been silent for a while but couldn’t resist asking.
Su Mu glanced at her, amused. “Boss hunting. Let’s see if we can find something interesting this time.”
...As dusk approached, some survivors were still hunting, trying to squeeze in a few more kills before heading back. Others, afraid of being ambushed at night, had already returned to the safety of their shelters.
[User5: That’s right. I heard Dalan from Sakura Country and Senka from Kangaroo Country are trying to form a boss-hunting party.].
[User6: A party? More like looking for human shields to take the hits for them.].
[User7: There’s always someone who thinks they can get a free ride. But boss loot is too tempting to pass up.].
[User8: Most leaderboard players still need a team to take down bosses. Only someone like Su Mu can solo them.].
[User9: Hmph, those despicable Dragon Country people just got lucky. How could their sickly tiger physiques possibly allow them to solo a boss?].
[User10: Hey, genius, why don’t you head into the wild and find a ‘Smart Fruit’ for yourself? Maybe it’ll help your brain function.].
Just as the forum was buzzing, a new world announcement suddenly popped up.
[World Announcement: Congratulations to Shelter Leader Su Mu for defeating a Level 15 Apocalypse Boss! He is now the fourth survivor to slay an Apocalypse Boss and has earned the World Blessing.].
At this point, some forum users had already become numb to these announcements.
The forum exploded once again.
[User10: Still think Su Mu’s boss kills are just luck?].
[User11: Haha, some people just refuse to admit reality.].
[User12: But seriously, Su Mu’s strength is ridiculous.].
[User13: Other players still need a full team to fight bosses, but Su Mu’s treating them like common mobs?].
[User14: THREE Apocalypse bosses in one day?! That’s more than the number of small monsters I’ve killed!].
