100x EXP Aura!

Hearing the voice in his mind, White Night's pupils suddenly constricted.

"System? Golden Finger? Holy crap!"

His face was filled with shock, and even his fingers, gripping the tree trunk, turned white from the effort.

Immediately after.

His breathing uncontrollably quickened, and his chest heaved violently.

His heart pounded wildly in his chest, thumping loudly!

Hoo! Hoo!

He quickly forced himself to take deep breaths of the fresh forest air.

The fragrant air, carrying the scent of grass and trees, rushed into his lungs, like a basin of cold water extinguishing the restlessness in his heart.

After a while, White Night gradually calmed down, but his eyes still held an unbelievably fervent gaze.

Then, with a look of anticipation, his fingertips trembled slightly, and he spoke somewhat nervously, "Draw."

As soon as his voice fell, the gentle voice echoed in his mind again, like a spring breeze brushing across a zither string, carrying a calming power:

[Drawing a random aura, please wait...]

As the voice faded, White Night felt as if a giant roulette wheel had appeared in his mind!

Countless shimmering aura icons spun rapidly within it!

There were attack auras flickering with flames, Life Auras wrapped in green leaves, and speed auras entwined with lightning... Each aura emitted a unique energy fluctuation, making his heart beat uncontrollably faster.

[Draw successful, you have obtained a permanent Experience Aura!]

...Immediately after, a faint golden aura phantom slowly emerged above his head, emitting a soft and warm glow.

Immediately, the aura silently merged into his body.

The next second, a detailed attribute panel appeared before his eyes:

[Experience Aura]

[Effect: Aura owner gains 100 times experience boost!]

[Duration: Permanent!]

"A hundredfold experience boost! And it's a permanent effect! That's incredible!"

White Night's face instantly flushed red, his breathing uncontrollably quickened again, and his whole body trembled slightly with excitement!

"Perhaps only the legendary God-tier Experience Potion would have such a heaven-defying effect, right?!"

A hundredfold experience boost meant that for every monster he killed, he would gain experience equivalent to other players killing 100!

As a result, his leveling speed would skyrocket like a rocket, reaching an incredibly astonishing level!

Levels that would take months to reach for others might only take him a few days, or even faster!

"With this aura, how many levels can I reach in 30 days?"

White Night murmured to himself.

He looked towards the depths of the forest, his heart filled with endless excitement and anticipation.

The future, originally shrouded in despair, seemed to have a bright opening torn into it instantly!

More importantly, he didn't just have this one aura!

The Game System prompt was very clear: every time he reached level 99, he would get a chance to draw an aura!

Awesome!

It was as if the heavens themselves were helping him!

"This way, the Demon Abyss invasion 30 days from now will no longer be an insoluble dead end for me!"

"I will have a chance to reverse all of this!"

White Night's eyes gleamed with unprecedented determination, and his tightly clenched fists turned white at the knuckles from the effort.

The tragic death in his previous life, the ferocious Demon Abyss monsters, the wails of his compatriots... This time, he would absolutely not let the tragedy repeat!

Then, with a thought, his hands were instantly enveloped in a black iron-colored light, and the brave gauntlets materialized in his hands.

The texture of leather intertwined with the coldness of metal, providing an incredibly firm touch.

"Well then, let's start our frantic leveling now!"

...Three minutes later, in the Enchanted Forest.

Sunlight filtered through the dense branches and leaves, casting dappled shadows on the ground, and the air was filled with the scent of damp earth.

White Night moved through the forest, his steps uneven, his ears vigilantly catching sounds from all around.

His warrior's instinct gave him a keen perception of danger.

Soon, he encountered his first game monster.

From a bush fifty meters away, a dark shadow suddenly darted out, revealing a massive body comparable to a calf.

It was a Shadow Direwolf, its scarlet eyes fixed on White Night, like two flickering ghost fires, filled with madness and killing intent!

This was one of the most common monsters in the outer regions of the Enchanted Forest, and also the challenge most often encountered by new players.

Its fur was as black as ink, as if steeped in night, almost blending with the shadows in the dim forest, with only its eyes glowing with a scarlet luster!

In this deep forest, it looked particularly eerie!

White Night gazed at the direwolf, and his innate professional detection ability immediately activated.

Some of the direwolf's attribute information clearly appeared in his eyes:

...[Name: Shadow Direwolf]

Grade: Normal

Level: lv5

Health: 250

Skills: Sharp Claws, Shadow Pounce

..."A level 5 Shadow Direwolf. Thankfully, there's only one, I can handle it."

White Night let out a sigh of relief, his tense shoulders relaxing slightly.

In his previous life, he was ambushed by three such direwolves, which led to his desperate escape.

Normal-grade monsters generally have lower attributes. Although this direwolf is level 5, its attributes are almost identical to White Night's current ones, only its health is slightly higher.

But White Night has the brave gauntlets' bonus, giving him a full 300 health points, which is even higher than the level 5 direwolf's, not to mention his advantage in combat experience!

"Roar!"

The Shadow Direwolf stared intently at White Night, a low growl rumbling in its throat, saliva dripping from its sharp fangs, hitting the ground with soft "drip-drop" sounds.

The next moment, it suddenly arched its body, its four limbs pushing off the ground, transforming into a black lightning bolt, charging towards White Night with a foul wind!

"Good timing!"

White Night showed no fear, his eyes filled with intense battle intent, as if the blood in his veins was boiling!

He spread his feet slightly, adopting the starting stance of basic combat techniques, the brave gauntlets reflecting a cold gleam in the sunlight.

As soon as he killed this direwolf, the Experience Aura's effect would activate!

He couldn't wait to see the astonishing experience numbers!

Bang!

White Night stomped the ground fiercely, leaving a shallow pit in the hard earth.

Using the recoil, he shot out like a cannonball, swiftly charging forward and colliding with the pouncing direwolf, engaging in a fierce battle!

As soon as the Shadow Direwolf got close, it suddenly raised its right paw, a cold glint flashing across its dark claws, making a sharp tearing sound in the air as it activated its skill, [Sharp Claws]!

Five sharp claw marks, like curved blades, slashed towards White Night's chest. The air in their path seemed to be cut open, carrying a pungent, fishy smell.

White Night's pupils constricted slightly. His footwork changed, and his body shifted half a foot to the left like a willow in the wind, barely dodging the fatal blow.

The claw wind grazed his clothes, and the rushing air scraped his skin painfully. Five deep claw marks, about an inch deep, immediately appeared on the tree trunk behind him, with wood chips falling rustlingly.

"Quite fast reactions!"

White Night thought to himself.

Daring not to be careless, he seized the moment when the direwolf's old strength was exhausted and new strength hadn't yet emerged. He clenched his right fist and, with a whistling sound, smashed it into the direwolf's flank.

"Awoo!"

The direwolf howled in pain, but its body was exceptionally agile. It used the impact of the punch to roll backward, avoiding subsequent attacks.

The moment it landed, a faint black mist suddenly emanated from its body!

The direwolf's figure became blurred in the black mist, but the scarlet glow in its eyes grew even more intense!

This was the precursor to [Shadow Pounce]!

White Night's heart tightened. In his previous life, countless novices had fallen to this skill.

He immediately crossed his arms in front of his chest, adopting a defensive stance.

The next second, the direwolf's figure vanished in the black mist, reappearing above White Night's head!

Using the inertia of its descent, its entire body enveloped in a thick shadow, it pounced down like a black meteorite, its sharp fangs aiming directly for White Night's neck, carrying an unstoppableImpact force!

"Now!"

White Night, instead of retreating, advanced. He stomped his feet hard, lowering his body by half a foot, while blocking with his left arm and coiling power in his right.

The direwolf's pounce slammed into his arm with immense force, causing White Night's legs to sink half an inch into the mud, and a tingling pain shot through his arm.

But he endured the discomfort, and his right fist, brimming with power and glowing with an earthy yellow light, accurately smashed into the direwolf's jaw!

With a crisp "crack," the direwolf's howl abruptly ceased.

Its body paused in mid-air, then flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground, spitting out blood mixed with bone fragments!

After this blow, the tide of battle would completely turn!

After a few more rounds of engagement, the Shadow Direwolf's movements noticeably slowed.

By now, several sunken wounds had appeared on its body, its health had plummeted to rock bottom, and the scarlet in its eyes had dimmed considerably.

"Now!"

White Night's eyes flashed with a sharp glint, and he decisively used his skill - Heavy Strike!

His right fist was instantly enveloped in a rich, earthy yellow light. Power gathered and compressed in his fist, and with a whooshing sound, he fiercely smashed it into the direwolf's head!

[Heavy Strike: The next attack deals 150% physical damage, consumes 50 mana]

Pfft!

With a muffled thud, the Shadow Direwolf's head caved in instantly, like a watermelon struck by a heavy hammer!

Scarlet blood mixed with brain matter splattered out, and its massive body swayed before collapsing to the ground with a thud, completely lifeless.

After the direwolf died, it wasn't long before it transformed into a shower of faint blue light, scattering in the air like fireflies.

Finally, only a small clump of black wolf fur remained.

The Game System log also continuously displayed messages at this time:

[You have killed the Shadow Direwolf, gaining 5000 experience points!]

[You have leveled up, reaching lv2!]

[You have leveled up, reaching...]

[...]

(Note: Base experience 50 points × 100 times boost = 5000 points)

At the same time.

A dazzling golden light suddenly erupted from White Night's body!

The light flashed continuously, a total of nineteen times, before gradually subsiding. Each flash represented a level increase!

He instantly rose nineteen levels!

Feeling the surging power that appeared out of nowhere within him, like a dry riverbed being filled with a torrent, his entire body was brimming with inexhaustible strength!

The fatigue from the previous battle was swept away, and White Night felt completely refreshed, unable to help but tilt his head back and let out a joyful low roar!

His face showed shock and delight as he muttered, "A level 5 direwolf giving 5000 experience is truly astonishing! And this is just the beginning!"

Then, he eagerly summoned his personal attribute panel, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face as he looked at the skyrocketing numbers:

...[Name: White Night]

Class: Warrior

Level: lv20

Health: 3100

Mana: 800

Attributes: Strength 230, Spirit 80, Agility 130, Constitution 160

Skills: Basic Combat Techniques (Passive), Heavy Strike (Active), Hot Blood (Active), Critical Strike (Passive)

...Just one direwolf made him soar from level 1 to level 20. Such a leveling speed is absolutely unique in the entire divine selection world!
