Chapter 35: The Eternal Chain

into four categories: ordinary, elite, lord, and BOSS.Thus, Zhang Yi, wielding a 25-pound iron hammer, began this 1v2 battle.Bang!Another blow landed on the ordinary level 5 bio-spider, dealing 63 p...Zhang Yi, who possessed the [God-Tier Enhancement] and [Dragon Clan Bloodline], had an attack power of level 10, which was at least double that of other players of the same level. Therefore, for other level 10 players, a level 12 Octopus monster that they could barely overcome by leveling up, was as vulnerable as a level 5 or 6 monster in Zhang Yi's hands.

Those melee octopi hardly had a chance to get near Zhang Yi before they were killed by the flames from his staff, becoming Zhang Yi's experience.

Zhang Yi's explosive output stunned the other players who were grinding Octolings at the same school.

A level 11 warrior, who had just barely slain a level 12 octopus with his sword, leaving himself with only half his health, exclaimed: "Damn! The Beastmaster's damage is insane! They wiped out an octopus with two hits. That's ridiculous!"

A level 10 priest girl healing a teammate said: “Isn’t this Yī Nò Qīngchéng Wow, the first time I see Yī Nò Qīngchéng in person, he is so handsome and powerful!”

As soon as the priest girl finished speaking, a voice came from her teammate in front, an 11-level assassin male: "Damn it, heal me!"

Just as he finished speaking, a scream rang out. The level 11 assassin male didn't wait for the priestess's healing and died under the claws of the level 13 octopus.

Here, Zhang Yi was picking up the loot from the eight-armed monsters he had killed earlier while continuously casting spells to blast the surrounding eight-armed monsters. This easy fighting style attracted envious glances from many players nearby.

Initially, his monster-killing speed was already fast. Halfway through the battle, Zhang Yi cast a [Fireball] that obliterated an octopus at the same time, triggering the one in a thousand chance golden skill [Hell Dragon Flame]!

Roar—

A deafening dragon roar echoed, and a torrent of scorching dragon flames erupted from the sky, engulfing Zhang Yi within a radius of 100 meters. Every octopus within that range was instantly hit with devastating damage, with figures of 315 points appearing above dozens of their heads.

With every second dealing 69 points of continuous burning damage, in an instant, all the octopuses touched by the hellfire dragon were obliterated!

Zhang Yi's experience bar surged upwards at a visible rate, while the surrounding freelance players were left stunned.

"What was that flame just now Who summoned it!!"

"To instantly kill so many monsters, wow..."

No one understood what had just happened. As Zhang Yi, the one who triggered the Hellfire Dragon's wrath, acted like nothing occurred, cleaning up loot while continuing to farm eight-armed creatures.

The drop rate of the Octopus Diagram remains at 50%, with one diagram dropping for every two octopuses. At Zhang Yi's brushing speed, he had killed over 400 octopuses before 3 p.m., completing the task.

However, seeing that it was still early, Zhang Yi didn't rush back to submit the task. He continued to brush the octopuses here, killing over a hundred more octopuses. A pleasant system prompt came from the air—

"Ding～Congratulations on completing this week's ordinary survival mission [Infinite Hunting], you have obtained a revival opportunity 1, the survival mission has been upgraded: [Elite Mission] (Elite), please complete the mission within this week!"

【High-Level Mission】, the indicator is that players need to complete at least three tasks with a difficulty level over 200 points within this week.

It's only Monday, no need to rush.

So, keep brushing!

I kept brushing until it was past five in the evening, using up all the blue medicine water in my bag. A beam of gold light fell from above my head—

"Ding～Congratulations on reaching level 13, you get 5 points of free attribute points. The next level up requires 33,000 experience points!"

"Finally level 13..."

Zhang Yi exhales, hurrying to set off for the safe zone before nightfall.

On the way back to the safe zone, Zhang Yi opened his backpack and counted his spoils.

This afternoon, I killed over 800 octopuses, earning over 4000 copper coins, which is equivalent to 40 silver coins. I got over 70 enhancement stones from level 1 enhancements, plus 30 from a one-star treasure chest, for a total of 100 enhancement stones.

In addition, there are 9 pieces of 1-star equipment for each profession from levels 12-15, all in the unverified state.

Besides that, there were also two skill books, one for warriors and one for archers. Adding to the pile was a white "Deadly Strike" skill book for assassins. For Zhang Yi, a beastmaster, they were all worthless trash.

After returning to Hope Town, Zhang Yi's first thing was to find Mo Li, the owner of the appraisal shop, and submit the task.

“Ding～ Congratulations on completing the task [Collect Octopod Encyclopedia], you gained 12000 experience points, 30 silver coins, 30 level 1 enhancement stones, 48 human reputation, and obtained the equipment [Eternal Chain]! You also gained 8 intimacy with [Appraiser Boss]!”

Opening his backpack, Zhang Yi saw a blue crystal necklace lying quietly inside. He took it out—

Eternal Chain:

Quality: 2 stars

Energy value: 60

Additional Attribute: Intelligence 6

Job Restrictions: Mages, Beast Tamers, Priests

Level Requirement: 13

Description: This is a necklace symbolizing eternity...

It was actually a 2-star piece of equipment! And it was the kind of necklace armor that Zhang Yi needed right now. The additional 6 points of intelligence attribute surprised Zhang Yi, who was a beastmaster.

After reaching level 10 and transferring jobs, as players control more skills, the energy consumption also increases. Don't look at Zhang Yi currently only has two skills, and the consumption is not much. The current energy of over 200 is enough.

Once you have a few more skills, you'll find that energy consumption is really huge. There isn't any good necklace equipment that can give players a significant energy bonus, so it's easy to run out of energy and be unable to cast spells in the middle of a fight.

This is the thing that skill-based mage players dread the most.

Zhang Yi, empowered by divine enhancement, always prioritized strengthening any new equipment he obtained. Enhancement! Top-tier! Top-tier! Top-tier!

Even the most trashy equipment can be upgraded to top-tier with godly enhancement, let alone 2-star equipment which is relatively rare in this current stage.

However, strengthening 2-star equipment requires level 2 enhancement stones, Zhang Yi only had level 1 ones in his bag. Synthesizing level 2 enhancement stones also required going to the blacksmith's shop.

Before that, Zhang Yi planned to take the opportunity to have the few pieces of equipment he had gotten this afternoon appraised, so he wouldn't have to run back and forth.

At present, equipment from level 12 to 15 with a 1-star rating still holds a decent market value. After appraisal, selling it would allow Zhang Yi to earn a considerable amount of extra cash.

Thus, the previous 8 pieces of equipment a total of 30 silver coins completed appraisal, when the last remaining a level 14 wizard pants time, the appraiser boss's price, actually reached 50 silver coins!om completing tasks in the wild and are preparing to submit them.Everything was normal, and no one had detected the crisis yet.Zhang Yi then looked at the "Exit" option in the bottom right corner of t...
