After Becoming a Solo Player, My Unlimited Skills Made Me Invincible - Chapter 27

Black Ant Nest

[Beep, you have entered the purgatory-level map, Black Ant Nest!]

As a system prompt sounded, Mo Xiao slowly opened his eyes.

Before him stretched an immense primeval forest.

Every tree had grown so thick that it would take two or three people to encircle them.

They soared into the sky, their tops invisible, while the grass beneath their feet stood over half a meter tall.

As long as the monsters were slightly smaller in size, they could easily hide in the thickets.

[You have entered an instance dungeon. Your current location is the entrance/exit of the dungeon. You can leave the dungeon at any time through this location.]

[If you leave the dungeon early, the dungeon experience will be based on the completion progress of the dungeon.]

[The current dungeon difficulty is purgatory-level, with a 30% increase in monster quantity, a 50% increase in monster attributes, and a 10% increase in elite monsters.]

[Dungeon clearance condition: defeat the Black Ant Queen.]

[Side quest: kill Black Ants (0/20), kill Black Worker Ants (0/20), kill Black Soldier Ants (0/10), kill Black Thorny Ants (0/5), kill the Black Ant Queen (0/1). The higher the completion, the more experience gained; the faster the completion, the richer the rewards.]

“Both the attributes and the quantity have increased so much?” Jiang He looked at the task prompt in front of him with worry all over his face. “Mo Xiao, did we act a bit recklessly?”

Mo Xiao looked around and said calmly, “Let’s see the attributes of the monsters first before deciding.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a series of faint sounds suddenly came from behind them.

Both of them turned to look and saw a huge black ant, half the height of a person and two meters long, emerging directly from the ground. It tilted its head and stared at the two of them.

Its two black antennae kept swaying.

[Black Ant]

Level: LV 10

HP: 1,500/1,500

Strength: 200

Agility: 30

Spirit: 10

Endurance: 50

Physique: 150

Bite: Inflicts massive physical damage on the target with its huge mandibles!

Acid Spray: Spits highly concentrated acid from its mouth, causing corrosive damage.

“Such high attributes!” Jiang He looked at the huge black ant in front of her and took a step back in fear.

Not to mention its attributes, just the fact that it’s an insect is enough to make Jiang He, a girl, tremble in her heart.

“It’s not particularly high,” Mo Xiao said calmly, raising his staff casually. “Monsters like insects should be weak against fire…”

Explosive fireball!

With a low shout from Mo Xiao, a huge fireball instantly shot out from the tip of the staff.

It smashed into the black ant’s huge head.

“Boom!”

Accompanied by a violent roar, the massive fireball burst on the black ant.

The scorching flames burned fiercely on the black ant’s body as if it had touched gasoline, and a foul smell filled the air.

-1,000

-300

-300

…

[You killed a black ant and gained 300 experience points.]

“Wow! Such a high experience!”

Before Mo Xiao could even speak, Jiang He exclaimed, “I gained 240 experience points just from this one ant!”

“Yes, the monster experience here is indeed high, even higher than in Deadman’s Canyon.”

[You have killed a regular black ant. The aura of death has alarmed the entire Black Ant Nest, and the black ants have entered a state of alertness. Please be careful.]

“Alertness? It seems impossible to sneak past them now,” Mo Xiao said calmly, casually looting the black ant’s corpse.

Then, Mo Xiao lightly tapped the ground with his staff.

And a massive skeletal lord appeared directly in front of him.

[Skeleton Lord]

HP: 5,500/5,500

Level: LV 10

Strength: 550

Agility: 360

Spirit: 480

Endurance: 1,000

Physique: 550

“Skeleton Lord?!”

Seeing the sudden appearance of the skeleton lord, Jiang He’s face turned pale, and she immediately grabbed Mo Xiao’s arm, wanting to run away with him. “Quick, run! This might be a boss-level boss! Its attributes are super high!”

“Calm down, calm down. Haven’t you noticed that its name is in white?” Mo Xiao grabbed Jiang He, who was trying to escape, and said somewhat helplessly.

“White?”

Jiang He was momentarily stunned at his words and looked up. Indeed, the name of the skeleton lord on the panel was white, indicating that it was in a friendly state.

“This is my skill. I can summon the skeleton lord,” Mo Xiao calmly explained.

Upon hearing this, Jiang He’s mouth opened in astonishment, unable to utter a single word.

Mo Xiao ignored Jiang He’s stunned state and directly addressed the skeleton lord, “Summon your soldiers and search for the black ant nest. If you encounter black ants, kill them directly. Start from the east and head north.”

The skeleton lord nodded lightly in response and immediately let out a loud shout. Twenty skeleton soldiers crawled out from underground and, following the skeleton lord’s command, scattered in all directions.

“Twenty? It seems that the level 10 skeleton lord’s skills have also been enhanced,” Mo Xiao nodded in satisfaction. He then sat down on the ground and waited for news from the skeleton lord.

At this moment, Jiang He also snapped out of her daze and asked cautiously, “Mo Xiao, where did you get these skills? Aren’t skill books expensive?”

Mo Xiao glanced at Jiang He and said, “Let’s just say I stumbled upon a treasure. I can’t give you specific details.”

“A treasure?” Although curious, Jiang He understood that it was clearly Mo Xiao’s secret, and she shouldn’t inquire further.

“A treasure?” Although curious, Jiang He understood that it was clearly Mo Xiao’s secret, and she shouldn’t inquire further.

“No need. Let the skeleton lord investigate first.”

As he spoke, Mo Xiao directly opened the map. The originally pitch-black map gradually revealed the terrain and routes as the skeleton lord triggered it.

Just as Jiang He was feeling surprised, the system panel suddenly lit up.

[You killed a black ant and gained 300 experience points.]

[You killed a black ant and gained 300 experience points.]

[You killed a black ant and gained 300 experience points.]

[You have killed a black worker ant and gained 400 experience points.]

“Black worker ants? I’ve encountered a second type of monster. Looks like it’s stronger than the black ant. My experience actually increased by 100 points.” Mo Xiao looked at the system panel and sighed.

“Wow, Mo Xiao, this skeleton lord is so strong! It can kill so many black ants in one go!” Jiang He exclaimed excitedly.

“It’s okay.”

Looking at Mo Xiao, who was calmly sitting there with his eyes closed, Jiang He suddenly felt a sense of unreality. Previously, she had struggled and fought hard to reach level 6 while leveling up.

Now that she was following Mo Xiao, as long as she sat here and waited, her experience points would directly increase. It was really too surreal.
