God Rank Upgrade System Chapter 248
Advertisement
Soon, Lin Xiu arrived at the exchange center again.
The old man on the counter over there already recognized Lin Xiu's face. At this moment, seeing Lin Xiu coming over, he couldn't help but laughed and said, "Young man, you're here again?"
He looked at Lin Xiu who was approaching and said with a smile.
"En, are there any better combat suits?" Lin Xiu nodded and went straight to the point.
"Combat suit ah…" The old man nodded and began to tap on the screen.
"What kind do you want?"
"The stronger the protection, the better." Lin Xiu said.
Although the combat suit that he used before was worth about a few million Union coins, after so many battles, it has now begun to have marks.
There were even holes in some places.
And when he reaches the Dark Forest, this battle suit was simply not enough.
"Where are you going?" The old man thought for a moment then asked Lin Xiu curiously.
After all, if you train at the Sacred Region Academy, there was no use for such expensive combat suits.
Only when you go out to fight evolved beasts, the use of these combat suits could be brought to the fullest.
"If you are not going to a dangerous place, there is no need to use such expensive protective clothing. After all, this requires a lot of points."
"Dark Forest." Lin Xiu said directly.
Hearing Lin Xiu's words, the old man's gaze suddenly changed.
"You're going to that darned place?" He seemed to know the horror of that place and said with widened eyes at this time.
If a warrior above rank 6 entered the Dark Forest, the survival rate was only less than 50%.
As for Lin Xiu's current strength, the old man could easily tell that he only had the strength of a rank 5 warrior.

In his opinion, going to the Dark Forest with his current strength was simply courting death.
"En, is there a recommended combat suit?" Lin Xiu nodded and said.
He knew that there were many combat suits that were specially designed for different places.
So Lin Xiu also knew that wearing a special combat suit specifically designed to deal with the evolved beasts in a certain area would be most effective.
"Are you really going to that place? Young man, you may not know how dangerous it is over there." The old man had a good impression of Lin Xiu and he reminded him kindly at this time.
"I know what kind of place I am going." Lin Xiu was also a little bit dumbfounded at this time. Why do these people keep thinking that he will definitely die if he went to the Dark Forest?
But he has an upgrade system and has unlocked the rank 2 gene lock, plus with the 'Fury' and 'Mirror image', the danger of going there would be greatly reduced.
"Okay." Hearing Lin Xiu's words and knowing that Lin Xiu would not listen, the old man swiped on the screen at this time.
"The Fire scale combat suit is made of scales of the rank 7 Flame beast. As the source strength on the body erupts, the scale armor on this combat suit will also transmit a scorching sensation, which produces a layer of hot air for protection."
"The beasts in the Dark Forest are afraid of fire, so this is definitely the best choice." The old man explained.
Lin Xiu looked at the Fire scale suit on the screen - it really looked very impressive.
And the protective ability was much better than that of his previous combat suit.
This thing looks good, but the points required were also a lot, right?

"How many points does it require?" Lin Xiu asked.
He only had about 100,000 points currently. If it required too many points, he really couldn't redeem it.
And had to find something cheaper.
"The inventory of this one is relatively small so it requires quite a lot of points." The old man replied.
Hearing this old man's words, Lin Xiu frowned slightly.
Seems like this combat suit is very expensive?
In this case, he really did not have enough points.
"How many?"
"200,000 points." The old man looked at Lin Xiu and said.
"Nevermind, I'll take a look at other combat suits." Lin Xiu said a bit regretfully.
Sure enough, he was right. The points required for this combat suit were a bit too much and he didn't have enough points to redeem it.
"Are you really going to the Dark Forest?" The old man ignored Lin Xiu's words and stared at Lin Xiu.
"Of course." Lin Xiu nodded.
He has already made an agreement with those people and he would definitely be there.
Also, the experience gained from killing the evolved beasts was much more compared to training here.
"How many points do you have now?" The old man asked.
Lin Xiu took out his card and pressed on the inquiry sign at the side. It instantly showed that he had a little over 100,000 points.
"100,000 points, you still need half more…" The old man touched his beard, then looked at Lin Xiu and said, "I can lend you 100,000 points."
"You can lend me?" Lin Xiu was stunned when he heard the old man's words.
He originally wanted to redeem a suit that could be exchanged for about 100,000 points.
After all, he couldn't simply get 100,000 points all at once right now.
"Yes, I can lend 100,000 points to you and you can return them to me within this semester." The old man nodded.
Lin Xiu narrowed his eyes, looked at him, and said, "What conditions do you have?"
There was no free lunch in the world. Lin Xiu didn't believe that this old man would lend him 100,000 points just because he was handsome.
Of course, unless he was an old gay.
With that thought, Lin Xiu suddenly felt a chill.
"You are going to the Dark Forest to complete a mission, right?" The old man looked at Lin Xiu, as if he had already guessed something.
Lin Xiu nodded, there was nothing to hide.
"When you go there, help me find something." The old man shifted his eyes and said to Lin Xiu.
While he was talking, he took out a card and soon, a picture appeared on it.
The picture was an introduction of a plant.
"Dark red spider lily - help me find this plant and bring it back." The old man said aloud.
"Isn't this the legendary red spider lily? There really is such a thing?" Lin Xiu looked at this black flower and said in surprise.
"No, it's just a plant that looks very similar to the legendary red spider lily, that's how it got its name." The old man shook his head and said.
"There are a lot of these things in the Dark Forest but can't simply leave the Sacred Region Academy. You only need to find this thing for me and bring it back, then I will lend you 100,000 points."

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)

From Fake Dreams
The Magus Killer was dying. He had done all he could to be a Hero and save as many people as he could. He killed his father to do it. He killed his adopted mother to do it. He killed his wife in the hopes to put an end to the need to do it ever again. He failed in rescuing his daughter as a result of his efforts. All he had left was a cursed and failing body, a sizable yet antiquated home in Fuyuki Japan, and his adoptive amnisiac son whose life he had destroyed in the first place. And then the dreams came. Dreams of War, Fire, Curses, unborn Gods, Heroes, and Monsters. Dreams of unresolved conflicts, promises, dreams, and tasks. Dreams with his nearly clueless son in the middle of it all. The Magus Killer was dying. But he could still prepare for what was to come. And fortunately, that was something he was still terrifyingly exceptional at. Currently at chapter 60 on FF.net

The First Half
"Kyran Hall, the Goddess Sada bestows you this gift." With those words, his life changed dramatically. He was granted a System, unique among all others, and abilities unseen before in the world. Granted boundless potential, he and his party would soon rise to prominence, becoming some of the greatest adventurers the world had ever see- *Ahem* Sorry, I've been told by the MC to say he's just an average guy. Nothing special about him. A traditional fantasy story with a (hopefully) new twist on the magic system. There's adventure, combat, monsters, magic, banter, and of course: pork belly. I'm new to writing fiction, and still learning to be more efficient in my brainstorming and editing process. If you have any feedback or suggestions, let me know! If you see any typos, mock me as much as you want because I should feel bad about it.
