You Might Die If I Cast My Healing Spell

Chapter 36: Recruiting A Walkthrough Tester

After a whole day of fighting, Lin Ye successfully reached level 6 and managed to clear all five of the simple secret dungeons that he had planned to clear before Bai Zhi’s Lady Luck buff expired.

Including today’s first instance dungeon, Bone Soup, Lin Ye received a total of 60 free attribute points and a few pieces of Silver and Gold-grade equipment.

His overall progress was two steps ahead compared to the normal students.

However, his luck today was absurdly bad, and he didn’t get anything that a Priest could use.

Just like the holy relic that made one’s blood pressure rise, after a month of hard work, there was still no improvement.

However, Lin Ye never relied on his luck to begin with.

He tried his best to sell walkthroughs and guides, even at the cost of his own waist, to improve the customer experience... And he did all this in order to make more money, and then buy the equipment and skill books he needed from various early stage equipment.

Anyway, before the end of the college entrance examination, everyone’s level would be limited to level 10, and the equipment’s usage level would also be stuck at level 10, unable to be upgraded.

Which means, the strength advantage from high-quality equipment would be at a disadvantage, which could be detrimental to the exam. Basically, it could be a “cheating tool” for go-getter students to beat “passive students”.

By the same logic, a High Platinum grade would be equivalent to a Low Diamond grade weapon or equipment that couldn’t be upgraded until the user passes the college entrance exam.

In fact, some Platinum grade equipment would even be more effective than Diamond Grade equipment.

For example, the “Emerald Ring” and the “Flickering Stone” he used, although they were a lower grade, they could still beat Huang Shaofeng’s Diamond-grade set.

Huang Shaofeng didn’t even get to use any of his gear!

So, even Gold-grade equipment and weapons would be enough for the college entrance examination.

“Open Personal panel!”

Lin Ye’s Class panel immediately appeared in the air.

[Name: Lin Ye (Level 6)]

[Attributes: strength 20 (20), constitution 51 (20), intelligence 55 (20), spirit 25 (20), agility 22 (20+10).]

He raised his right hand and began to operate, distributing the 60 free attribute points he had earned today to each attribute, turning them into fresh combat power.

[Attributes: strength 50 (20), constitution 51 (20), intelligence 55 (20), spirit 27 (20), agility 50 (20+10).]

As shown above, apart from spirit, Lin Ye’s other four attributes had all fulfilled his goal of reaching over 50 points.

With the additional bonus from his equipment, he broke through 70 points, completely crushing any ordinary students who were still struggling to level up to level 5.

Although the current him is not the candidate with the highest attributes this year, he was definitely a candidate with the best attributes and the most well-rounded fighting style for the exam.

He could tear down low-level Warriors with his bare hands in close range, can use his large-scale attacks to kill the Boss from afar, heal all his teammates and increase their attack damage, and become everybody’s big brother that would lend a hand to others in need... Just what couldn’t he do?

But of course, this was just the beginning.

When Lin Ye reached level 10, his four attributes would be several times higher than now. The new skills he would learn and the new equipment he would wear will also be more powerful than now.

At that time, whether it was those rich second-generation students who relied on money to pave their path, or other students who had awakened their equally amazing Class talents...

Lin Ye was confident that he could defeat all of them and become the top scorer/candidate of this year’s college entrance examination.

He...

He was already prepared to be famous all over the world.

...

After finishing the dungeon and adding his stats, Lin Ye immediately called Su Mumu and asked her where she and Bai Zhi were. He also told her that he was going to have dinner with Huang Tianqi tonight.

“Eh? Wait. Isn’t that Huang Shaofeng’s father?”

“Yup,” Lin Ye casually said. “Huang Corp’s Big Boss is quite good at handling disputes. Not only did he call me to personally apologize for what his stupid son did, but he also wanted to treat me to a meal and give me some mental compensation...”

“Do I have to go too?” Su Mumu curiously asked.

“You’re going, Bai Zhi too.” Lin Ye said, “I’ve already talked to Mr. Huang and he agreed.”

Su Mumu couldn’t help but launch a wave of conspiracy theories, “But… This could be some sort of treacherous plot. He’s okay for all of us to meet him?”

Lin Ye was a little speechless at the idea, “What makes you think that? We live in a society ruled by law now! You know what… I think you should watch less soap operas and TV shows in the future and read more books. I sometimes don’t know what you’re thinking about all day...”

Su Mumu pouted her little mouth that reminds Lin Ye of (.?ˇεˇ?.) emoji, “Why do you care? Just hurry up and find us. We’re drinking milk tea at the Honey Snow on Old Street. We’re almost done!”

“Okay, order me a large Oreo Tornado with ice.” Lin Ye said.

“Yeah, yeah I know.” Su Mumuthen hung up the phone.

And so, Lin Ye took a taxi and headed straight to Old Street.

This was a famous scenic spot in Jiang City. Old buildings from ancient times were preserved here, and it was full of the cultural atmosphere of the old era. It seemed out of place with the surrounding high-rise buildings.

Due to the demon wave disaster, this Old Street had been destroyed several times, and it was getting worse and worse with every demon encounter, to the point of beyond recognition.

However, in order to preserve the history and culture of Jiang City, Jiang City’s president still allocated a huge sum of money and called for a large number of people to restore every blade of grass and tree there.

Ordinary people who did not have the talent to become professional players would bring their family and friends here to shop, drink tea, and fish in their spare time.

The time spent here was like an oasis, a small paradise for people to numbly live for the sake of life and giving up on those former entertainment projects ...

Anyway, back to the main story…

Lin Ye walked through the bustling street and looked for the Honey Snow milk tea shop. He took out his phone and called a classmate named “Gu Yun”.

“Hey!”

“Lin Ye, boss! What’s the matter?”

“Gu Yun, I have a few copies of some level 5 walkthroughs and guides with me right now, but I haven’t personally tested it myself.” Lin Ye went straight to the point, “So, I’m just asking if you’re willing to help me test these strategies? As a reward, I won’t charge you for these guides. I’ll give them to you for free.”

“F*ck! Really?” Gu Yun shouted excitedly, “Then I’m willing to do it a million times! Boss Lin Ye, just tell me when and what I should do!”

Gu Yun was actually the guy with the username “ChickenSoupIsHere” in the forums and strategy groups. He had been admiring Lin Ye for a long time, so no matter where he was, he was the one who bragged about Lin Ye the most.

And in reality, the two of them were respectively sitting in front and behind each other. They had quite a lot of things in common, but they were not as close as Lin Ye to Su Mumu.

Lin Ye had thought about it for a while, and finally decided to hand over Gu Yun the title of ‘Guide Tester’.

This way, even if Lin Ye couldn’t clear every dungeon due to his level and experience limit, he could still rely on Gu Yun as a “tool” to verify and perfect his strategy.

But of course, Gu Yun alone wasn’t going to be enough to test all the dungeons on his own, so Lin Ye chose a few more suitable people to become his “testers.”

And he would look more into them later.
