Chapter 29: Ten-Star Apprentice Mage

“It’s okay, it’s okay!” Bard didn’t know why Caruso wanted such rubbish but, as long as Caruso was happy, he didn’t care about these things.

What he didn’t know was that after he said these words, Caruso started to dig at the pile of bones as if he had gone crazy.

At first, he was scared by the bones, so he started to kick them with his feet and dig at them with his hands.

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for obtaining [Silver Weapon – Broken Holy Light Staff].”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for obtaining [ Bronze Boots – Corroded Blessed Boots].”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for obtaining [Bronze Treasure – Mu Pearl].”

Very quickly, one item after another was dug out by Caruso from the pile of bones.

In the process of searching, he had found a total of eight items.

Among them, four were bronze-rank items. The attributes on them had only been slightly increased. After thinking about it for a while, Caruso immediately threw them away.

It wasn’t that he was rich or overbearing but that these items had been corroded very badly. If he were to wear them, they would look very abnormal.

As for the remaining four items, three were silver and one was gold.

[Broken Holy Light Staff]

[Broken Holy Light Ring]

[Broken Holy Light Robe]

[Holy Light Bracelet Stained with Evil Aura]

These items seemed to be custom-made sets. Each item had a holy light before its name.

Moreover, these items were originally platinum-level equipment.

However, due to the corrosion of time, each of them had degraded to silver-tier.

Among them, only the bracelet still retained a bit of its radiance and was still at the rank of gold-grade.

Similarly, the holy light bracelet also had a skill attached to it. The rest were all light-type attributes.

After equipping these four pieces of equipment, which had an upwards total of 60 light-type skills. There was a 20-point increase in the speed of absorbing light-type elemental particles, as well as an increase of 15 points in spiritual power.

After equipping the equipment, Caruso’s attributes also had a new change.

…

After seeing the changes in his attributes, especially after wearing the equipment, he felt a clear current rush up from the soles of his feet to his head.

His entire person became much clearer.

After settling all these, he did not plan to waste any more time. He said to Bard, “Mr. Bard, I’m leaving this place now. May I ask how I can leave this place?”

After asking, he realized that Bard was looking at him with a face full of confusion as if he had not returned to his senses.

“Oh… I’m sorry, Respected Young Master Caruso. I was thinking about something else just now. If you want to leave, I will help you!”

A few seconds later, Bard came back to his senses and immediately became embarrassed.

However, he had been in the underworld for so many years, so he had a profound understanding of the world. Therefore, he immediately changed the topic with one sentence.

After changing the topic, Bard suddenly “floated” to a corner. Then, he made a hand seal and hit the ground.

Soon, a six-star light circle condensed from black light appeared in the cave.

“Young Master Caruso, if you walk into the center of this magic formation, it will take you away from here,” Bard said slowly after the light formation came out.

After saying that, Caruso nodded and quickly walked into the light formation.

When he walked in, not long after, the black six-star light formation emitted a strange power.

In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from the cave.

When he woke up, he was already outside the forest.

From the moment he appeared in the forest, before he could do anything, the system’s voice sounded one after another.

“Ding-dong! Due to the player completing the Dark Forest Storyline Quest [Bard’s Revenge], Reward 10,000 EXP.”

“Ding-dong! Due to the player completing a storyline quest for the first time, reward experience points will be randomly increased. Permanently increasing charm by 100 points!”

“Ding-dong! Experience points will be increased by five times this time, a total of 50,000 EXP.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for leveling up to 7-star Apprentice Mage. A total of 5 free attribute points have been obtained.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for leveling up to 8-star Apprentice Mage. A total of 5 free attribute points have been obtained.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for leveling up to 9-star Apprentice Mage. A total of 5 free attribute points have been obtained.”

“Ding-dong! Congratulations Player for leveling up to 10-star Apprentice Mage. A total of 5 free attribute points have been obtained.”

…

A series of notifications instantly raised Caruso’s realm from a six-star apprentice mage to a ten-star apprentice mage.

After breaking through four minor realms, each of his attribute points was increased by four points, and he also received 20 free attribute points. In addition to the previous total, 45 attribute points were not allocated.

“Add all of them to spirit.”

After a few seconds, without any hesitation, Caruso decisively chose to add points to spirit.
