After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 378 - 308, Magic Sword Loli [Philo Shield]_2
Tasya stared unwaveringly ahead, her face flushed with excitement, her legs cramped. Her hands pressed firmly against her chest, as if only the pain there could convince her this was not a dream.
The leader of the Phoenix Tail Flower, Lin Da, was indeed the Dark Shadow.
Tasya’s last doubts completely dissipated.
Like most members of the Primitive Adventure Team, Tasya also adored Lin Da. First, because Lin Da had helped them a lot; and second, because of Lin Da’s invincible power after transforming into the Dark Shadow.
In his lifetime, he had never tasted defeat!
Before the Dark Shadow disappeared, his power was even greater than it is now.
But even so, he was no match for a Forest Dragon.
As soon as the Dark Shadow drew his sword, Tasya and her teammates knew that the trouble had been dealt with, all enemies would perish under the magic sword.
This was the Dark Shadow.
He was the incarnation of "invincibility," the most talented adventure team leader in the Royal Capital, supported by the Duke of Cold Moon, one of the four guardian flames, famously called ’the adventurer with the most potential to reach the top of the World Tree’.
At that moment, what Tasya saw were black flames shooting straight into the night sky, hundreds of meters high.
His sword light slew the giant dragon, melting trees and rocks along its path.
A terrifying ravine, a hundred meters long and up to fifty meters wide in a fan shape, was carved into the earth.
Any adventurer seeing this would hardly believe that a Light Rank adventurer could achieve it.
With the magic sword "Philo Shield" and the cloak "Shadow Seal," Lin Da’s combat power was incalculable. Enjoy exclusive content from novelbuddy
These equipments were the fruits of Lin Da’s countless nights of dungeon raids and hard work.
By relying on the Dark Shadow, he had supported himself and his sister, even saving quite a bit of money.
How powerful this character was could be imagined.
"My lord, I feel the seal strengthening, I must part from you for a while."
The melancholic voice of the magic sword Philo came through.
Lin Da also felt the power of the Experience Card waning.
According to the system description, the duration of the Experience Card’s effect was greatly related to one’s own level.
The higher one’s own level, the higher the level of the transformed Dark Shadow.
The longer the usage time.
At the current level of 26, it was just one swing of the sword.
"Philo, rest for now, I believe we will meet again soon."
Lin Da nodded.
Facing the Tool Soul girl in the magic sword, he chose to maintain the somewhat dramatic tone of the Dark Shadow.
In the game, to subdue Philo, he had had to defeat her forcefully.
Lin Da had to maintain the mystery and strength of the Dark Shadow to prevent the Tool Soul from rebelling.
Before being subdued, Philo was essentially a little witch, having killed numerous Shadow creatures.
He had barely won thanks to the abundance of potions in his backpack.
"My lord, I look forward to our reunion."
The black flames entwined around his body quietly receded.
Lin Da felt his body go limp, so limp that he couldn’t even breathe and fell straight from mid-air.
It seemed using the Experience Card was not without a price.
Lin Da felt as if he’d been drained dry by a group of succubi, not a drop of water left.
Fortunately, Tasya had recovered enough to leap up and catch him securely in her arms.
The intense motion caused her to...sway back and forth,
Lin Da’s face suffered a painful blow, and everything went dark before his eyes, nearly causing him to pass out.
"Master, are you alright?" Tasya held him tight anxiously.
"I can hardly breathe."
Lin Da’s mouth and nose were blocked, he could only smell a fragrant scent, but fresh air couldn’t enter his lungs at all.
"I’m sorry, I was disrespectful."
Tasya quickly let Lin Da out.
Lin Da took deep breaths, and after drinking two bottles of Mana Recovery Potion, was finally able to walk normally.
He looked at the silver-haired maid, her eyes misty, a look of guilt mixed with emotion, and he gently smiled, pulling her into a hug and stroking her trembling little head:
"I wouldn’t want to be mistaken as a master who bullies his maid. If you’re going to cry, save it for when we reach the top of the World Tree, turn them into tears of joy, and scatter them with everyone."
"Yes."
Tasya, nowhere near her usual aloof demeanor, curled her lips into a slight smile, nestled against Lin Da’s chest like a well-behaved kitten, gently sniffing her master’s scent, her body completely softening.
The heart-stopping embrace invigorated Lin Da, feeling as if energy had been injected into his body.
Starting today, he was officially a captain with his own dedicated maid.
Because of his encouraging hug just now, Tasya’s trust level had unexpectedly increased by two points, reaching an astonishing 95 points.
He didn’t know what rewards reaching full trust level could bring.
Lin Da clicked on the trust meter to check, at the end there was a black package with a red ribbon, a gift box with a big question mark on it.
The 90-point trust level came with the Shadow of Darkness Experience Card; surely 100 points wouldn’t be worse.
But the final five points of trust were harder to earn than reaching the heavens.
Lin Da didn’t plan to force it.

He wiped a small pearl from the corner of Tasya’s eye and, holding her soft hand, moved forward.
After the Forest Dragon died, its body turned to ashes and dissipated.
A mass of golden light, the size of a water tank, remained in its place.
It was ten times larger than that of its offspring.
As expected of a mature giant dragon, the rewards were plentiful.
Aside from the rewards for slaying the Forest Dragon, there were eight other notifications in Lin Da’s system message bar.
These were prizes unlocked after accessing Tasya’s trust meter.
At a glance, each item was of remarkable quality.
Some even made Lin Da’s heart skip a beat with excitement.
Taking advantage of the golden light from the Forest Dragon, which was in ’random generation’ mode of the World Tree Goddess’s blessings, in ’loading’ state, Lin Da used this time to first check the system messages.
[You have received trust reward: Level 34 Orange Helmet, Orange Breastplate, Orange Boots, Orange Jewelry X2, Magic Scroll Super*Charge, Level 34 Epic 1-star Magic Cannon, Legendary Oath Ring (Tasya*Min), Shadow of Darkness Experience Card (used)]
A full set of level 34 orange equipment!
Lin Da quickly scanned them; the attributes focused mainly on strength and attack speed, perfectly fitting for Tasya’s magic cannon profession.
There was also the epic 1-star magic cannon weapon.
If he equipped Tasya with all of these once her body was fully recovered, soloing Hulus would be a piece of cake.
Although Tasya had now used dragon blood to neutralize her poisoning, she needed some time to recover and could probably only exert half her battle strength.
In addition, there was an epic-level magic scroll, Super*Charge.
It was an upgraded version of Lia’s energy charging skill.
The magic scroll could only be used once, with the effect of doubling the power of the next attack.
It was extremely practical, definitely a trump card to hold onto.
Then there was the legendary equipment, Oath Ring (Tasya*Min).
[Equipment Description: A ring from Tasya’s 80-point trust level, the wearer’s agility is increased by 30%]
The ring was silver, delicately and elegantly crafted, seemingly with moonlight flowing over it, absolutely stunning.
The attributes were also very impressive.
Increase agility by 30%!
Percentage increase equipment was very valuable, usable from level 1 to max level without any issues.
Inside Lin Da’s system backpack, there lay another ring.
From Lulu, it could increase strength by 30%.
He thought about giving it away when he found a chance.
Lin Da thought to himself: giving the Oath Ring too early before seemed premature, easy to be taken for a fool.
Now, it seemed the timing wasn’t a problem anymore.
If possible, he needed to find the right setting.
Giving the Oath Ring could also increase the trust level.
At this moment, the golden light formed by slaying the giant dragon had finished condensing.
Lin Da’s train of thought was interrupted.
The golden light shot toward him, striking his chest.
The Divine Light indicating the rise in adventurer level fell continuously.
Since the Forest Dragon was classified under wild BOSS magical creatures, defeating it earned rewards and experience points.
Under the infusion of the Divine Light, Lin Da’s depleted magic power replenished rapidly; his body was teeming with a warm flow, like drinking a nourishing chicken soup, filled with inexhaustible energy in all his limbs and bones.
Even if faced with ten lustful succubi, Lin Da could confidently say he wasn’t afraid at all.
Strength, surging continuously!
"Awesome, this is just awesome."
Lin Da cheerfully shouted in his mind.
It felt like relieving a three-day constipation with a long flush, squeezing out a nose pimple, and holding hands with the team members stepping onto the ladder of adulthood…
Lin Da’s mind went blank, filled with the joy of leveling up.
