"How can it be this cold?"
Ivy Ning said as she sat down by the fire, stretching out her small hands to warm them.
With the people chasing her dealt with, Ivy Ning finally relaxed.
Mark Lin knew the low temperature here was because of the skeleton warriors.
He immediately ordered the skeleton warriors to disperse.
Ivy Ning already knew Mark Lin didn't like talking much, so she simply went on talking by herself.
"I found a lucky treasure chest in the Carmen Orc Legion camp in Young Sea City."
"You know how these treasure chests appear randomly, and I just happened to find one."
"I opened it and got this intermediate skill scroll."
"Thinking that those guys saw it…"
"They wanted to snatch my intermediate skill scroll. Although it's not worth much money, how could this lady give away something she worked so hard for so easily?"
"So they chased me, and I ran."
"I ran for two days, from Young Sea City all the way to West Sea City. Tell me, aren't they annoying, like bedbugs?"
From Ivy Ning's words, it was clear that even a skill scroll worth ten million gold coins didn't impress her much.
Who knows what wealthy family this lady came from? Just too rich.
Mark Lin looked at Ivy Ning, and after she finished speaking, he quietly said, "You almost died just now."
Ivy Ning said, "Don't worry, I won't die. When I receive fatal damage, I'm automatically teleported away."
"But still, thanks to you. If it weren't for you just now, I wouldn't have died, but I definitely would've been hurt."
"You know, getting hurt really hurts. Ivy hates pain the most."
Alright then, Mark Lin felt his worry was unnecessary.
She had treasure and wouldn't die.
Ivy Ning stretched out her hand, "Here, take the intermediate skill scroll. Got any food? I'm still not full."
Mark Lin took out a few buns, trophies from the fight just now—there were more than ten.
Ivy Ning shook her head, "No buns, I want sweet potatoes."
Mark Lin chuckled silently and swapped the buns for sweet potatoes.
"That's more like it. I don't want to eat something that's been on corpses," Ivy Ning said as she happily took the sweet potatoes and began eating.
Are sweet potatoes really that tasty?
Seeing how Ivy Ning ate, it must have been delicious.
"Dummy Lin, are you here to level up? Judging by your level, you probably haven't gone to any higher academy yet."
Ivy Ning asked while eating.
Mark Lin nodded, "No."
Ivy Ning was used to Mark Lin's speaking style, "So which academy do you plan to apply to?"
"Summer Capital Academy," Mark Lin replied softly.
"Hmm, Summer Capital Academy is pretty good." Ivy Ning didn't seem surprised at all.
In her eyes, with Mark Lin's strength, he could get into any academy.
Who else could casually massacre three level-20 professionals at level 10?
If Mark Lin couldn't get into Summer Capital Academy, then no one could.
Suddenly, Ivy Ning's eyes lit up, "If you go to Summer Capital Academy, remember to challenge their Divine Summer Tower."
"And the first challenge rewards can be doubled. Work hard to climb higher; the more layers you clear, the better."
"That way you get more points, which are more useful than gold coins at Summer Capital Academy."
"And also, there's a Divine Creation College inside Summer Capital Academy. If possible, you must get in."
Ivy Ning seemed very knowledgeable about Summer Capital Academy, enthusiastically telling Mark Lin all about it.
Through her words, Mark Lin gradually formed a rough idea of Summer Capital Academy.
For 99% of the time, Ivy Ning was the one talking, and Mark Lin was just listening, occasionally replying with a word or two.
Ivy Ning's voice gradually faded.
Mark Lin took out a piece of clothing to use as a blanket for Ivy Ning and then began meditating himself.
The next day, sunlight streamed down.
Mark Lin's spirit power was full as he woke from meditation.
Ivy Ning blinked her big eyes, looking at him.
"Any more sweet potatoes?"
She smiled brightly and stretched out her hand.
Mark Lin immediately took out a piece of sweet potato and handed it over.
"Not enough, give me more."
Mark Lin took out another piece.
"Can you not be so stingy? It's just sweet potatoes, can't you give more?"
"Yeah yeah, big men should be generous. Just give it all to me."
Mark Lin gave Ivy Ning almost all of the twenty or so pieces of sweet potato he had on him, not keeping a single piece for himself.
"Really none left?" Ivy Ning still didn't believe it, as if she wanted to crawl into Mark Lin's storage space.
Mark Lin nodded, "Really none."
Ivy Ning finally gave up, "Alright, alright, I believe you."
"This lady is leaving now. I have to level up too. Dummy Lin, see you later."
"Hurry up and level up, then you can bring me along next time."
Ivy Ning left decisively, taking the sweet potatoes and the clothing used as a blanket.
After Ivy Ning left, Mark Lin muttered to himself, "I'll bring you along to level up someday."
After a whole night, no goblin monsters appeared here.
The monster respawn time far exceeded Mark Lin's expectations.
He guessed it was because he killed too fast.
The forest still carried a faint bloody smell.
Three corpses lay on the ground.
Mark Lin looked at the corpses and silently activated the skill he had just learned yesterday.
The corpses exploded.
With a tremendous roar, a large area of trees was blasted into splinters.
Not just knocked down, but completely pulverized.
A big pit appeared on the ground, 20 meters in diameter.
The depth was over 10 meters.
The power was quite impressive.
Mark Lin discovered the corpse explosion's damage radius was a full 360 degrees in all directions.
"Judging by this, aerial detonation might be even more powerful."
He had just detonated the mage's corpse.
He ordered the skeleton warriors to throw the archer's corpse into midair.
He activated the skill targeting the airborne corpse.
Another loud explosion erupted, even more powerful than before, confirming his suspicion.
An aerial explosion had greater power.
However, corpse explosion had a drawback—it was easy to accidentally hurt allies.
Neither he nor the skeleton warriors could be harmed, but teammates fighting alongside might be at risk.
