Divine passivity

"Ba Ga, Ba Ga!"

The continuous scrolling announcements completely dumbfounded Jinichiro. His originally angry expression turned into madness.

He kept jumping up and down, pointing at his subordinates and cursing loudly.

"You're all useless!"

"Get out of here!"

As he watched his irrational expression, all the subordinates present bowed their heads and dared not speak.

...

"And it's this Su Mu again, how is this possible? How did he get the first kill on the boss?"

Langte Nade, a beautiful country player who was leveling up, looked at the scrolling message in front of him with an incredulous expression on his face.

He was like a super crocodile, spending countless amounts of money to rise in the game.

In order to level up faster, he even chose the Mage profession.

But even so, he was still far behind others.

"Unique skill?"

Staring fixedly at the skill displayed on the scrolling message, his eyes revealed an endless greed.

"This skill must be mine!"

Clutching his fist tightly, he didn't hesitate and sent a private message to Su Mu.

"50 billion (Beautiful Country coins), no, 100 billion. I will exchange my entire fortune for this skill. As long as you sell it to me, you won't be short of a single penny!"

The price he offered was undoubtedly insane.

But after everyone saw the brilliance of that Archmage, not a single person remained sane.

[Brilliance of the Archmage (SSS Rank): After killing a monster, there is a certain probability to increase the base intelligence by 0.5 (with no upper limit, can be upgraded).]

This was a passive skill, a passive skill that could infinitely increase the limit of intelligence!

What was the most important attribute for a Mage?

If you asked a hundred Mages, ninety-nine of them would definitely answer: intelligence!

The world channel was filled with discussions about this skill.

"This skill is too exaggerated. Killing monsters can increase intelligence. Doesn't that mean unlimited millions of intelligence and tens of millions of magical damage in the late game?"

"I don't know how high the probability is, but looking at its SSS rank, it shouldn't be too low. And it can also be upgraded. I wonder what the effect of a Divine-level skill would be."

"Now it's truly heaven-defying, and this is the only skill. Isn't this Su Mu the designated heir to the Archmage?"

"I'm really curious about who this Su Mu is. He got the Elite First Kill and the Boss First Kill. He must have an amazing team, right? Why is there no news about them?"

"Looking to buy Brilliance of the Archmage. Su Mu, please reply to my private message. I won't haggle if you name your price!"

"With a game-breaking skill like this, who would sell it? I might consider it for 100 billion!"

The entire channel was filled with various comments, and there were countless people who wanted to buy this skill.

In the hidden dragon and crouching tiger world of Huaguo, numerous wealthy players emerged, willing to exchange their entire fortunes for this skill.

However, the private messages they sent out all went unanswered.

...

In the Wild Boar Camp, the leader of the wild boars fell next to Su Mu.

There was a glowing orb on its corpse, but Su Mu didn't bother picking it up.

"This skill is just too amazing, isn't it?"

His attention was completely drawn to the Brilliance of the Archmage in his skill bar.

Without any hesitation, he decisively chose to learn it upon obtaining the skill.

As for the private messages with offers of billions and trillions, Su Mu chose to ignore them all.

"This skill can still be upgraded!"

Su Mu looked at the "+" behind the Brilliance of the Archmage.

[To upgrade the skill, you need 10,000 skill points. Would you like to proceed?]

10,000 skill points was an extremely exaggerated number for anyone, but Su Mu pressed the upgrade button without hesitation.

[Consuming 10,000 skill points, Brilliance of the Archmage has been successfully upgraded!]

A prompt immediately popped up.

Su Mu looked at his skill points.

It was still the number 9,999,999.

"I will continue to upgrade!"

The joy of having infinite skill points was simply incredible. Su Mu continued to press the "+" button on the skill.

[Brilliance of the Archmage (SSS Rank) successfully upgraded to Radiance of the Archmage (Divine Rank)]

[Radiance of the Archmage (Divine Rank): There is a certain probability to increase your base intelligence by 1 point when you kill a monster (with no upper limit)]

"This is amazing!"

After leveling up five times in a row, the upgrade coefficient increased from 0.5 to 1.

Although the skill didn't have a specific description, Su Mu had a feeling that the probability of increasing intelligence would greatly increase after the skill reached the Divine rank.

As for the specific probability of this passive skill, Su Mu would have to verify it himself.

"No need to rush. Shen Tu has only just begun, and the road ahead is still long. This passive skill is definitely not as simple as giving me wings like a tiger."

"Let's see what good things the boss drops!"

Closing the skill bar, Su Mu adjusted his breath and looked at the corpse of the wild boar leader.

[You obtained 10 gold coins]

[You obtained Wild Boar Armor (A rank)]

[You obtained Wild Boar Axe (A rank)]

[Wild Boar Armor (A rank): Increases physical defense by 50, increases magic defense by 50, +500 HP, requires level 8 (Heavy Armor)]

[Wild Boar Axe (A rank): Increases physical attack by 100, +10 Strength, +10 Agility, requires level 8 (Two-Handed Weapon)]

"Two A-rank equipment, the attributes are pretty good!"

Seeing the two pieces of equipment in his hands, Su Mu smiled.

Mages couldn't wear heavy armor or wield two-handed weapons.

These two pieces of equipment were only meant for selling.

"As long as I put them up for auction, it will definitely cause a frenzy. However, most people's levels are still low right now, so I'll sell them later!"

After thinking for a moment, Su Mu didn't rush to put the two pieces of equipment up for auction.

Although gold coins would become less valuable over time, it didn't make a difference to him.

He wouldn't exchange gold coins for money. All he needed was the gold coins themselves.

He believed that when those wealthy players reached level 8, he could put these two pieces of equipment up for auction and sell them for several times the current value!

"The rest can be listed for sale. Just keep some mana potions and health potions!"

After cleaning up the battlefield, Su Mu listed all the sellable items from his backpack.

There were still many unsold items in the auction house, but he wasn't in a hurry.

He opened the quest panel, and the quest to destroy the wild boar altar had not been completed.

Su Mu looked towards the entrance of the cave on the side of the camp.

Unless something unexpected happened, the wild boar altar should be inside that cave.

"After completing this quest, I can log off and rest!"

He walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Even though he had just obtained a divine-level skill, Su Mu was still very interested in the captain of the guards' secret technique.

After all, when it came to skills, the more, the better!
