Chapter 6: Solo or Team Up
At first glance, the Iron-rank skeleton in front of him looked no different from the one summoned in the afternoon.
Its appearance hadn’t changed, still looking like it came from a garbage heap.
But appearances can be deceiving.
[Iron-rank Skeleton Warrior]
[Strength: 150]
[Agility: 150]
[Spirit: 150]
[Constitution: 150]
[Skills: None]
While the exterior remained the same, the attributes had undergone a dramatic change.
All attributes increased tenfold.
Strength, agility, and spirit aside, the tenfold increase in constitution essentially meant the skeleton warrior’s vitality and defense had also increased tenfold.
Combined with the damage transfer skill, killing Lin Moyu would be extremely difficult.
Lin Moyu also summoned the skeleton warrior from his summoning space and found its attributes had also increased tenfold.
Full Enhancement had taken effect on it as well.
With 10 spirit points left, Lin Moyu summoned another Iron-rank skeleton.
Then he began to meditate.
Meditation was the best way to recover spirit power and could substitute for sleep.
Many students at school could do this.
The next morning, Lin Moyu woke up on time.
His spirit power had fully recovered.
Three Iron-rank skeletons stood faithfully before him, motionless like guards.
As the soul fires flickered in their skulls, cold winds swept through the room, dropping the temperature by several degrees.
"This would be nice in summer, no need to worry about the heat," Lin Moyu thought, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.
He summoned a fourth skeleton warrior.
Then he stored all four skeletons in his summoning space.
Keeping 10 spirit points and four Iron-rank skeletons with tenfold enhancement, Lin Moyu felt it was sufficient.
With 150 points of strength, even level 7 or 8 knight warriors wouldn’t be much stronger.
A bus was waiting at the school gate to take them to the dungeon location.
When they arrived at the dungeon, it was already crowded.
Not only First High School students came to the novice dungeon, but almost all students from West Sea City who had completed their transitions.
West Sea City had six high schools, with over 800 students transitioning yesterday.
Most became lifestyle professionals.
Less than 200 people could come here, not even a third of the total.
The students gathered while the teachers went to handle the dungeon entry procedures.
"Old Lu, you’ve struck gold this time."
"Not just one rare combat career, but also a unique hidden career. You’ve really hit the jackpot."
"Your First High has been impressive these two years. Last year you had Lin Mohan enter Summer Capital University. Are you planning to knock on their doors again this year?"
Several principals gathered, chatting enthusiastically.
Lu Yun’s face was beaming, "Xia Xue and Lin Moyu are indeed exceptional. If possible, I really hope they can enter Summer Capital University."
"Xia Xue? Is that the young miss from the Xia family?"
"And Lin Moyu, why does that name sound so similar to Lin Mohan?"
Lu Yun explained, "Xia Xue is indeed the young miss of the Xia family. Lin Moyu is Lin Mohan’s younger brother."
"No wonder. The Xia family’s bloodline inheritance is quite good. As for Lin Moyu, this sibling pair is truly remarkable."
Gao Yang nudged Lin Moyu, "Want to team up?"
Lin Moyu shook his head at Gao Yang’s invitation.
Gao Yang feigned anger, "You brat, are you looking down on me?"
"I’m sincerely inviting you. If you don’t give me a good reason, I won’t let this go."
He looked angry, but the hint of a smile in his eyes betrayed him.
Lin Moyu ignored him, and sure enough, Gao Yang changed his tune in seconds.
"Boss, why won’t you team up with me?"
Lin Moyu said flatly, "Teaming up slows leveling. Solo is faster for leveling up."
Gao Yang asked curiously, "How do you know?"
"Read more," Lin Moyu replied, another rare response.
Gao Yang scratched his head, clearly not quite believing it.
At this moment, Xia Xue suddenly spoke up, "Lin Moyu is correct. In a two-person team, although monster killing is faster, the experience is split between two people."
"A two-person team can at most increase killing speed by 50% to 60%, but the time to find monsters is fixed, so overall efficiency decreases."
"According to the experience summarized by seniors, dungeons below level 10 are suitable for solo play. Only dungeons above level 10 are suitable for teams."
Xia Xue explained clearly, and Gao Yang, not being stupid, understood after thinking about it.
At this time, Lu Yun walked over.
"Except for Xia Xue and Lin Moyu, all combat professionals should team up with some support professionals to enter the dungeon."
"Don’t think about solo leveling. Remember, in future high-difficulty dungeons, you can’t do without support."
"If you don’t bring support now, don’t expect to find support when you need it. It doesn’t work that way."
"To be frank, it’s better to team up with your classmates than with strangers. At least there’s a bond between classmates; they won’t abandon you in danger."
Lu Yun’s words were clear, and indeed true.
This calmed down those who had been considering solo play.
If combat professionals didn’t bring support, the support professionals’ leveling speed would be very slow.
Someone asked, "Why don’t Xia Xue and Lin Moyu need to bring support?"
Lu Yun cleared his throat, "They’re different. Xia Xue is aiming for Summer Capital University, she needs to level up quickly."
Moreover, Xia Xue wouldn’t stay in the novice dungeon for long, two days at most before she leaves.
"As for Lin Moyu, I don’t understand his career or know his combat power. You can ask the support professionals if they’re willing to team up with him."
