In the Capital of Death.
Zhang Yue and Su Jinyan were teaming up to hunt Level 27 Skeleton Shield Guards.
Along the way, each ti they killed a Skeleton Shield Guard, Zhang Yue would take out the Secret Order of Skull Island and refine it.
Because the number of refinents would not stack, the maximum was only ten tis.
***
Unconsciously, it was already 11:50 PM.
Only ten minutes left until Grim Reaper Caesar's attack!
Su Jinyan didn't have the Heart of the Demon effect on her, so she could only use a Return Scroll to go back to the Holy Light Cetery and hide in the tomb to avoid the Grim Reaper's attack.
During this period, Zhang Yue also stopped hunting skeletons alone.
Because if he got attacked by skeletons midway, the Heart of the Demon effect would be nullified if he wasn't at full health, and Zhang Yue would be killed by Grim Reaper Caesar!
Zhang Yue found a safe spot and waited quietly until 12:10 AM when the Grim Reaper's invasion ended and he retreated.
Ten minutes later, Su Jinyan returned to the Capital of Death, and the two continued hunting Skeleton Shield Guards.
After killing 300 Skeleton Shield Guards, Zhang Yue still couldn't refine a Golden Secret Order despite thousands of attempts.
So, they started to switch to the domain of Level 28 Skeleton Mages!
Skeleton Mages had extrely high spell damage and the Blink skill, making their movents unpredictable.
Even Su Jinyan had trouble keeping up, frequently missing her skills and failing to control the Skeleton Mages!
Of course, it wasn't a matter of awareness; the main issue was the significant level difference, and Su Jinyan's hand speed couldn't keep up.
Moreover, she had to constantly pay attention to her positioning to avoid being one-shot killed by the Skeleton Mages!
As a result, fighting Skeleton Mages beca even more challenging than dealing with Skeleton Shield Guards!
However, they could still manage to fight.
***
In the blink of an eye, it was 4 AM.
By this ti, they had only killed a little over a hundred Skeleton Mages.
Each kill granted ten refinent opportunities.
After thousands more refinents, Zhang Yue still couldn't turn the Regular Secret Order into a Golden Secret Order!
At this mont, a sleepy Su Jinyan yawned and stretched.
This novel is available on ".
Under the moonlight, from Zhang Yue's angle, her thin purple mage robe appeared sowhat transparent.
Her graceful figure was fully revealed to Zhang Yue.
As a normal male, Zhang Yue couldn't help but swallow.
At this mont, Su Jinyan noticed Zhang Yue staring at her and smiled, "Do you like what you see?"
Zhang Yue awkwardly turned his face away.
"If you're tired, you can go offline and rest."
It seed unlikely they would get the Golden Secret Order anyti soon.
Su Jinyan replied, "But you'd be so bored alone! Don't worry, I'll keep you company!"
Then, the two continued hunting Skeleton Mages.
The refinent rate for the Golden Secret Order was extrely low!
Even though Zhang Yue had nearly infinite Psionic Energy, he was limited by the rule of "only ten refinent opportunities per monster kill," making the progress very slow.
Zhang Yue thought: There's probably no chance to refine the Golden Secret Order tonight.
***
Unexpectedly, as dawn broke, he succeeded!
"Ding~ Congratulations on refining the Golden Secret Order (exclusive to the Skull Island Secret Realm)! Please upgrade the Skull Island Secret Realm within 2 hours, or the Golden Secret Order will disappear!"
Looking at the token in his hand that had turned from gray to gold, Zhang Yue felt relieved.
Logically, the refinent rate for the Golden Secret Order was less than one in ten thousand.
Last ti, for the Golden Secret Order of the Dark Zombie Nest, Zhang Yue had to refine it eleven thousand tis to succeed.
But this ti, it only took less than three thousand refinents!
Su Jinyan, seeing the Golden Secret Order in Zhang Yue's hand, was also overjoyed, "Wow, you did it!"
"You have so much Psionic Energy! And you're really willing to use it for refining Secret Orders!" Su Jinyan knew Zhang Yue had a lot of Psionic Energy, but she didn't know exactly how much.
"The Golden Secret Order only lasts for 2 hours," Zhang Yue said, looking at the order, "Let's go tackle the Secret Realm first."
"Okay!" Thinking about the Level 25 Secret Realm rewards, Su Jinyan instantly felt wide awake.
They temporarily put aside the task of killing skeletons and left the Capital of Death.
Arriving at the Skull Island Secret Realm.
Zhang Yue imdiately activated the Golden Secret Order.
"Ding~ You have used the Golden Secret Order to upgrade the Skull Island Secret Realm to a Hidden Secret Realm. Congratulations on receiving the exclusive activation reward: Gold Coins 5, [Necromancer Set Selectable Equipnt Box] (Level 25, 2-star) 3!"
The harder it was to activate a Hidden Secret Realm, the higher the activation rewards!
At the sa ti, a system announcent descended from the sky.
[Area Announcent] (Holy Light Cetery): "Ding~ Attention all Professionals in the Holy Light Cetery: Professional [**] (hidden) has used a Golden Secret Order to upgrade the Regular Secret Realm [Skull Island] to a Hidden Secret Realm, lasting for 1 hour. All Professionals are welco to challenge the Hidden Secret Realm!"
As the system announcent fell.
Right before Zhang Yue and Su Jinyan, the giant whirlpool gate guarded by the old mage Laurie on the coast turned from purple to gold!
Without hesitation, the two stepped into the whirlpool gate.
***
anwhile, on the other side.
At 6 AM, Chen Jun had just logged in at the Holy Light Cetery and heard the system announcent about Skull Island being upgraded to a Hidden Secret Realm.
He imdiately got excited, "Just woke up and there's already a big opportunity? Haha, aweso!"
Next to him, the strategist, the Level 20 Holy Assassin Wu Sin, who was clearly smarter than Chen Jun, expressed concern, "Brother Chen, your Resurrection Scroll's cooldown isn't over yet. What if soone changes the Secret Realm permissions with a Golden Secret Order again..."
"I don't believe it. Could it be that Zhang Yue, that loser, activated the Secret Realm again? Don't forget, that kid can't even leave the Holy Light Cetery now."
Chen Jun snorted dismissively, "Besides, this ti I have the Killer rcenary Group helping . We will definitely take down Skull Island first!"
Saying this, Chen Jun imdiately sent a Feixin to Killer Peppa, "Get all your Level 25 people over here to help with Skull Island!"
However, when Chen Jun arrived at the Skull Island Secret Realm with several fully ard Level 25 Professionals from the Killer rcenary Group and people from the Mist Rain Pavilion, they were shocked to find the Secret Realm entrance already closed, and they couldn't get in!
"Damn it, shit!" Chen Jun cursed angrily, "Who dares to change the permissions with a Golden Secret Order and close the entrance? I want to see who has the guts to monopolize the first-clear rewards of this Secret Realm! Guard the exit for . When that guy cos out, we'll take him down!"
Under Chen Jun's orders, people from the Mist Rain Pavilion and the Killer rcenary Group guarded the entrance of Skull Island.
***
anwhile.
Inside the Skull Island Secret Realm.
Zhang Yue and Su Jinyan automatically received the Secret Realm mission: kill 40 Skeleton Warriors and defeat the Secret Realm Guardian: Skeleton General Hera!
Starting from the edge of the island, the two headed towards the center.
Along the way, they killed randomly spawned Level 25 Skeleton Warriors.
For the two who had already challenged Level 28 Skeleton Mages, dealing with Level 25 Skeleton Warriors was naturally a piece of cake.
With the Silver Armored Scorpion leading the way, Su Jinyan controlling, and Zhang Yue dealing damage.
Soon, they had taken down 40 Skeleton Warriors!
Reaching the center of Skull Island, they saw a dozen Skeleton Warriors kneeling on the ground.
In front of them was a Skeleton General, clad in armor and wearing a battle helt, with a commanding presence, riding a Skeleton Warhorse!
Above its head was a blood-red ID—
[Skeleton General Hera] (Lv27 Physical Type · Lord Monster)!
"Let's take care of those skeleton minions first."
"No problem!"
As they spoke, Zhang Yue and Su Jinyan raised their staffs and entered battle mode.
At the sa ti, Skeleton General Hera suddenly raised its head and noticed the intruders, Zhang Yue and Su Jinyan.
It lifted its long spear, pointing towards Zhang Yue, and let out a roar.
The next mont, the dozen kneeling Skeleton Warriors received the command and charged at Zhang Yue and Su Jinyan with their swords!
