I gain permanent defense when attacked; even gods and demons can't hurt me.

In the center of the main hall, the dazzling golden light gradually faded away.

The three of them stood around the empty golden treasure chest, their breathing becoming rapid.

[Received: 10 Gold Coins!]

[Obtained: Goblin King Plate Armor (Silver Set Piece)]

[Obtained: Goblin King Leggings (Silver Set Piece)]

[Received: 5 Beginner Skill Scrolls!]

[Obtained: Rare Passive Skill Scroll x1!]

[Gained: Skill Insights (10000 Skill Experience Points)!]

Two pieces of armor, gleaming with a heavy metallic sheen, lay there quietly, their surfaces crisscrossed with dark red patterns resembling fresh blood.

"I'm rich!!"

Xia Chen stared wide-eyed at the two pieces of silver equipment.

"This is a silver-grade set piece!"

"Even a single ordinary silver item on the market costs tens of thousands of gold coins, so this set of pieces must cost at least several times that, right?"

Lin Yuan glanced at the attributes of the two pieces of equipment and nodded slightly.

It is truly top-notch.

It adds strength and constitution, and has set effects; it's practically tailor-made for berserkers.

"Alright, stop drooling."

Lin Yuan kicked Xia Chen's butt and pointed to the equipment on the ground, saying:

"Both of you can wear these two pieces of armor."

"Although Xiaoxue is proficient in leather armor, she can also manage with plate armor, though she'll lack agility."

"How do you plan to divide it?"

Although he is the team leader, he still needs to ask his teammates for their opinions on the distribution of such top-tier equipment.

Ouyang Xue glanced at the two rough plate armors and shook her head without hesitation.

"Give them all to Xia Chen."

Her voice was cool, but it conveyed a sense of rationality.

"I have the chitinous armor of the queen ant that you gave me before. It's leather armor, which is more suitable for the agile movement of the gunner."

"And those are also parts of a set."

A hint of anticipation flashed in Ouyang Xue's eyes.

"I'm already level 15, so I can definitely farm the [Queen Ant's Nest] dungeon in the wild."

"If I get lucky and get another piece of Queen Ant equipment, I'll be able to activate the set bonus."

"Hehe, I'm so embarrassed."

Xia Chen said he was sorry, but his hands were already reaching for the equipment.

"Since the school beauty has put it that way, then I'll accept without hesitation!"

"From now on, I'll take care of all the dirty and tiring work!"

Lin Yuan rolled his eyes at him.

"Don't act innocent after getting the benefit."

"It's not over yet."

Lin Yuan flipped his hand and pulled out a huge spiked club from his backpack, which was covered with sharp spikes and exuded a terrifying aura.

The Goblin King's Spiked Mace (Silver)

This was dropped when the BOSS died, and Lin Yuan picked it up casually.

"Your berserker specializes in greatswords."

"But I remember, you're a rare berserker, you can use spiked clubs, katanas, and blunt weapons."

"This thing has much higher attack power than your bronze sword, and it even has a stun effect. Do you want it?"

"Yes! We absolutely must!"

Xia Chen was so excited he almost jumped up, grabbed the spiked club, and wanted to kiss it.

"Yuanzi! Oh no, Godfather!"

"You're absolutely amazing to me!"

Xia Chen's lips were practically bursting with uncontrollable joy, turning up in a wide smile.

This is the value of a rare profession!

Ordinary berserkers can only specialize in one type of weapon, but he's different!

This spiked club may be a bit ugly, but the attribute points it provides are incredibly valuable!

"Stop talking nonsense and get dressed."

Lin Yuan pushed away Xia Chen, who was trying to get closer, with some disgust.

"Let me see how this outfit works."

"Alright!"

Without saying a word, Xia Chen changed her clothes on the spot.

The original shabby black iron plate armor and bronze greatsword were directly replaced.

Instead, he wore a sleek, dark red plate armor, the latest update of which is now available on Cola Novels; awaiting your interpretation. Wielding a massive spiked club, he seemed to have grown considerably larger!

A fierce and tyrannical aura emanated from him.

It's practically a humanoid goblin king!

Of course, changing clothes here is the same as in the game; you only need a thought to put on the equipment.

As Xia Chen donned the three pieces of equipment (plate armor, leg guards, and spiked club), a dark red halo lit up beneath his feet.

Set bonus triggered!

[Goblin King Set Effects (3/6):]

[1. Strength +50, Constitution +50.]

[2. Barbarian Physique (Passive): Increases maximum health by 20% and reduces physical damage taken by 10%.]

[3. Brutal Strike (Passive): When attacking enemies with less than 50% health, deal an additional 10% true damage!]

Holy crap!!

Xia Chen looked at these attributes and felt completely elated.

"Heals! Increases defense! And deals true damage!"

"That's incredible!"

He couldn't wait to open his attribute panel.

Name: Xia Chen

[Class: Berserker (Rare)]

[Level: 15 (4250/20000)]

[HP: 2850] (Originally 1370, greatly increased after equipment and set bonuses)

[Mana: 410]

[Strength: 520] (Originally 370, greatly improved with equipment)

[Agility: 85]

Armor: 160 (originally 110)

[Magic Resistance: 100] (Originally 81)

[Physical Fitness: 180]

【Spirit: 44】

[Equipment: Goblin King's Mace (Silver), Goblin King's Plate Armor (Silver), Goblin King's Leggings (Silver), Brute Force Ring...]

Looking at these impressive statistics, Xia Chen felt incredibly strong.

"Brother Yuan, I feel like I could just smash my old self to death with one blow!"

Lin Yuan nodded and gave a fair assessment.

"Not bad, I can barely withstand two of the BOSS's normal attacks."

"If I accidentally let a monster slip through my defenses, you can step in and be cannon fodder."

Xia Chen: "...Never mind then, I want to live a few more years."

"Alright, the items have been distributed."

Lin Yuan collected all the remaining [Basic Skill Scroll], [Passive Skill Scroll], and [Skill Insights].

These are his goals.

Especially that book that can directly add 10,000 skill experience points.

With it, the [Guardian Barrier] can be upgraded to the maximum level, or even exceed it!

Or should I save it for that new skill?

Lin Yuan suppressed his excitement.

"Our time in the secret realm is up; we should head back."

"Otherwise, your dad will probably be worried."

Lin Yuan glanced at Ouyang Xue.

Ouyang Xue blushed and nodded.

"Let's go."

A portal opened, and the three filed in.

……

Tianhai City, City Lord's Mansion.

It was already getting late.

But the city lord's mansion was still brightly lit.

Ouyang Lingyun paced back and forth in the reception room with his hands behind his back, looking somewhat anxious.

"An hour has passed, why is there still no movement?"

"That's a secret realm! Although Lin Yuan is a strange kid, he's still carrying two burdens, and there will definitely be a settlement time and loot distribution after we clear it. Let's wait a bit longer!"

Old Zhou, standing to the side, remained calm and composed, toying with a teapot in his hand.

The voice just fell.

The space in the center of the hall suddenly distorted.

Three figures appeared out of thin air.

"I'm back!"

Ouyang Lingyun's eyes lit up and he immediately went to meet her.

"Xiaoxue! Lin Yuan! Are you alright?"

Xia Chen: ...So, I was just ignored?

……
