Chapter 58: Water of Life, The Sacred Artifact is Mine Alone

Ella clenched her fists tightly.

Initially, she believed that Jeremy would be wary of them. Otherwise, he wouldn't have spared her life earlier.

However, Jeremy's recent actions made Ella sense his murderous intent.

This made Ella understand that Jeremy was not really afraid to kill them.

If they provoked him, none of them might leave this place alive.

After all, if everyone were dead, no one would be left to know that Jeremy was behind it.

His strength was more than sufficient to ensure no witnesses.

Understanding their precarious situation, Ella softened her tone and ceased threatening the madman in front of her.

She asked in a somber voice, "Jeremy, what exactly do you want?"

"You catch on quickly." Jeremy glanced at her and chuckled lightly. "As for what I want, didn't I just say it? I want that so-called hero to kneel and apologize to me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned toward Kelvin.

"You!" Kelvin's face flushed with anger, and he couldn't help but take a step forward, ready to confront Jeremy head-on.

But he had barely taken two steps before Ella's sharp voice stopped him in his tracks.

"Do you want everyone to die here?" she scolded.

Her words were like a bucket of cold water poured over their heads, bringing the members of the Black Dragon Squad back to their senses.

They looked at Jeremy's calm expression and were suddenly reminded.

The young man before them was no longer the player they once knew, elevated by Benjamin's support.

He had become a powerful monster capable of trapping them all in this instance!

For a moment, silence enveloped the scene.

Kelvin's body trembled, his face a mixture of anger and inner conflict.

As a former top federal agent and the vice captain of the Black Dragon Squad, the idea of kneeling and apologizing to an eighteen-year-old boy was a fate worse than death.

Seeing Kelvin's hesitation, Jeremy's voice remained calm. "Your time is running out. Make a decision quickly."

At this moment, Rafael had already fainted.

Jeremy loosened his grip slightly, ensuring he didn't accidentally strangle the beautiful woman. After all, he was known for his chivalry and appreciation of beauty.

Ella suddenly stepped forward with a resolute expression. "I will apologize on their behalf!"

"You?" Jeremy was taken aback for a moment, not having expected this.

But before he could refuse, Ella bit her lip, bent her knees, and knelt down on the ground.

A gentle breeze swept across the plain, making her silver hair dance in the wind.

In a solemn tone, Ella said, "Jeremy, as the captain of the Black Dragon Squad, I sincerely apologize for our offenses. Please, spare Rafael."

After speaking, she pressed her lips tightly together, closed her eyes, and bowed her head to the ground in a full kowtow.

"Captain!" Ramone and Tre's eyes reddened at the sight.

As a noble heiress and the captain of the Black Dragon Squad, Ella had never knelt and apologized to anyone before.

Kelvin opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out.

His eyes flashed with guilt, and the anger in his gaze toward Jeremy grew even more intense.

That bastard!

If it weren't for him, the captain would never have been forced into such a humiliating position!

Jeremy glanced at Ella, somewhat surprised by her unexpected gesture.

Seeing Jeremy come out alone, Dana was taken aback.

He asked in confusion, "Why are you the only one coming out? Where are the others?"

"They're still inside farming monsters. I just came out for some fresh air." Jeremy lied casually to brush off the question. He then left the abandoned factory, planning to find a place for his second class change.

He wasn't sure if the area where he originally lived had been cleared of monsters. So he didn't plan on going back there. Instead, he headed straight to the army's encampment, the safest place in the Moonlight City at the moment.

The army's encampment wasn't far from the abandoned factory, and Jeremy arrived shortly after.

This was a residential area that had been cleared, with soldiers patrolling frequently and strict defenses in place.

Most of the high-ranking officers in the army knew Jeremy and were aware of Howard's regard for him. When they heard that Jeremy wanted to rest there, the logistics officer immediately arranged for him to stay in the room next to Howard's.

Jeremy followed a soldier into the room.

The room was clean and tidy, with the bedding neatly folded, saving him a lot of trouble.

After the soldier left, Jeremy sat on the bed and checked the equipment and items he had obtained from the Death Wolf King.

[Equipment]: Ring of Metamorphosis

[Type]: Accessory

[Level]: Platinum

[Quality]: Orange (Rare)

[Attributes]: All Attributes +200, Skill Attack +5%

[Skill]: Metamorphosis (Active)

[Description]: After using the skill, the player can mimic the appearance of any person, with no cooldown time.

...

[Item]: Water of Life

[Rank]: High

[Quality]: Orange (Rare)

[Description]: After use, the player can restore 100% of their state.

...

[Item]: Energy Crystal

[Level]: Tier 7

[Description]: After use, increases 300 random attribute points.

[Tip]: Leapfrogging 1000 meters can gain 300 free attribute points.

...

Both pieces of equipment dropped by the Death Wolf King were orange items. After all, it was the first kill of an instance BOSS. The drop rate and quality were much higher than ordinary monsters. Jeremy wasn't surprised.

The skill of the "Ring of Metamorphosis" was somewhat niche, rarely useful in most situations. But the equipment's attributes were quite good, not only adding 200 points to all attributes but also increasing skill attack power by 5%.

The "Water of Life" was a typical super recovery item. As long as a player still had a breath left, using the "Water of Life" would fully revive them. Though it wasn't as good as a resurrection coin, it was still a precious life-saving item.

Jeremy decided to hold onto the Tier 7 Energy Crystal for now. He might use it to open a treasure chest in the future.

That was, as long as his second class change went smoothly.

Jeremy took a deep breath, steadied his mind, and prepared himself.

A prompt appeared before him.

[Do you want to proceed with your second job change now?]

Without hesitation, Jeremy selected "Confirm."
