On July 11, I continued to level up desperately in the Kunlun Mountains for a whole day. At the same time, I deliberately wandered around a few more places and encountered several super bosses, but I didn't kill them. I immediately turned around and ran away when I saw them. It's not that I don't have the confidence to challenge them. Leaving them behind is my way of making money!
At noon on the 12th, I finally reached level 45! Hehehehehe... I looked at my broken equipment and thought, it's okay, I can change into the Tiger King suit!
Back at the headquarters, the profiteer brought good news. He exchanged the "Bloody Blade", a piece of top-grade dark gold equipment that I had not sold yet, for tiger skin gloves. The tiger stripe cape also had a clue, but the other party said that he also wanted the Tiger King suit, so he was not willing to sell it, nor was he willing to exchange it for equipment. The profiteer later heard what the other party meant. In fact, he still wanted a good price, because the man was lucky to get the cape from the monsters, and he didn't have the ability to kill the boss himself, so it was actually impossible to get the whole suit. Therefore, the profiteer quoted a sky-high price of 10,000 gold coins, which is the highest price for dark gold equipment at present. In theory, the tiger stripe cape is currently worth at most 6,000 to 7,000 gold coins (in fact, the price of dark gold equipment has begun to drop now, and you can buy a top-grade item with good attributes with 2,000 to 3,000 gold coins. It's just that capes are very rare equipment in Fantasy, and the tiger stripe cape is one of the suits, so the estimated price is very high). It seems that this is the first one to be exploded in the game, and it can't make up the whole suit. Therefore, things are rare and expensive. The other party was quite tempted but was still hesitating. The unscrupulous businessman said to me angrily that if I had not needed the money urgently, he would have given up the deal long ago. Paying too much and suffering a little loss was no big deal, but the problem was that word would get out that he, a unscrupulous businessman, did not understand the market and was being taken advantage of by spending a lot of money, which would affect his reputation.
I thought about it and took out all the gains of the past two days, a total of more than 7,000 gold coins and a number of equipment, and said to the profiteer, "Just say that you were asked by someone to buy this thing. Since he's asking too much, forget it. Then find someone else to talk to him, and add another 3,000 to 5,000 gold coins. I don't believe I can't beat him to death. We don't care about this little money. If we get the complete set, we will have a much better control over tomorrow's action, and we can easily earn back a few thousand gold coins."
The profiteer said, "That's right. By the way, I have already contacted the person, and the reward is more than the original one. I think it can almost pay off our fundraising! If I had known you had this method, I wouldn't have bothered to raise funds. Well, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
I said awkwardly, "I just came up with this idea at the last minute! Besides, it's always better to have more funds in stock, just in case. Also, I know another way to make money. Well, it will be about time after this is done, so I'll have to trouble you to hold another auction."
"Ha, auctions are my best, I'm just worried that you can't deliver good stuff!"
After the discussion, I walked out of the headquarters and called Lemming. Because I had calculated the approximate time of the upgrade, I agreed to ask him to wait for me online at this time, so he arrived immediately. With Lemming, we went through the teleportation array and came to the Warcraft Forest in the south of the continent. This is the only place on the Cang Continent that produces Warcraft monsters that are common in the Western Continent, and the level 60 unicorn monster mount that I need lives here.
There were many high-level and powerful monsters in the Warcraft Forest, so I didn't dare to go deep into it carelessly. Fortunately, there were unicorns at the edge of the forest. I walked along the edge of the forest with the lemmings for more than half an hour, killing some two-headed magic wolves, ghost-faced spiders and other messy monsters. Finally, I encountered a small group of unicorns.
There are many colors of wild horses, but there is no choice for unicorns. They are all snow-white with a golden horn on their heads. There are only some subtle differences in height, weight and size between individuals. I am too lazy to choose carefully. Anyway, the actual performance (am I buying a car) is the same. I asked the lemmings to set up traps, and I charged into the herd. Unicorns are more difficult to tame than wild horses. It is impossible to lure them one by one with a bow and arrow. If you provoke any one, a group of monsters will rush over. This is a very smart monster with a strong sense of unity. In other words, my strength is super strong. If other knights at level 40 want to capture unicorns, it is not enough to bring a thief. At least they have to organize a team! Otherwise, once the herd is alarmed, they will be trampled first...
However, when I level up now, I usually target monsters over level 60. Naturally, a small group of unicorns poses no threat to me. Hu Po chopped wildly and killed more than 20 of them, leaving only two and leading them to the trap area.
The first unicorn was ambushed first, but I didn't care and continued to lead the other one to run away. When the other one struggled out, I had already run out of its pursuit range, so the two unicorns were separated. The purpose of doing this was to make a backup in advance, in case the first capture failed, I could immediately find another one. Lemming had already set up another trap in the distance according to my instructions. Because he didn't focus on practicing mechanical arts and scout skills, the level of his traps was higher than when Wanxing and we broke into the imperial tomb together. Although the unicorn has a higher AI monster, one of two or three traps will always be effective.
After running to the ambush position, I saw the lemmings gesture to me, knowing that the trap was set, I immediately jumped off the Black King, switched to a specially prepared weapon with low attack power to prevent the unicorn from being killed instantly, and then slowly chopped the guy into serious injuries. Humph, because it is faster than the Black King, I took several lightning attacks from its horn when I lured the monster, and I must get back this pain.
You can't use riding skills on a seriously injured unicorn immediately. Unicorns are stubborn and smart. They won't just kick their hooves like a wild horse to resist. They will carry you and run into the forest to find their companions, or even the Unicorn King! If you are still stupid and refuse to give up, I'm sorry, the angry unicorns and the D-level Boss Unicorn King will be waiting for you in front of you and will trample you into a pulp!
There are only two ways to subdue the unicorn that the veterans have figured out during the internal test. One is to rely on the cooperation of the thief's trap, or you can bring enough meat shield friends, and also have attack methods with paralysis, freezing and other effects, so that the unicorn loses its ability to move instantly, and everyone takes the opportunity to surround it, making it unable to escape, and then use riding skills. The second method is laborious, and is usually used when several knights want to change mounts and make an appointment to act. Now I am the only knight over level 40 in the alliance, so it is naturally easier to ask a thief to cooperate.
I took the continuous attacks of the unicorn, which was seriously injured and had a last burst of vitality, and carefully led it to a trap in the center. Hehe, it was surrounded by white light and couldn't move. I quickly used the riding skill, jumped up, and rode on its back.
The lemmings' trap can trap the unicorn for about 30 seconds, and it takes 5 minutes to subdue the mount. Sure enough, half a minute later, the unicorn broke free and turned to run into the forest. Unfortunately, this was what I expected. I had the lemmings set up a dense array traps! After running for two steps, it fell into another trap. At the same time, the lemmings spotted its escape route, went around to the front and continued to work hard, paving a "trap road" for it...
The poor fellow finally surrendered to me after stepping on seven or eight traps! All went well, and the spare horse was lucky, so I didn't have to look for it again.
After I tamed the new mount, the Black King automatically terminated his contract with me. Looking at it running happily towards the forest, I could only wish it good luck and hope that it would not be picked up by any magical beast and eaten as dinner!
I took a closer look at my new companion. Hmm, I was in a hurry and made mistakes if I didn't choose carefully. This little guy is a little small, which is far from the majestic and powerful one I expected! And the face is also soft, or "pretty", which should be a small beast for teenagers... It's more suitable for female knights. Sigh... But I don't plan to waste time to change another one. I won't ride a unicorn forever. I can change my mount after level 60 or 80!
However, the names I originally planned such as "Chasing the Wind", "Chasing Lightning", and "Super Light" are not suitable for it. After thinking about it, in order to commemorate a puppy I once raised, I just called it "Coco". Since it is cute, let it be cute to the end!
No matter what, its capabilities are not weak. Its backpack load and speed are both 150% of that of the Mustang, and its combat/rest time ratio is 3:1. I believe that it will be a good helper in my battles for a long time to come!
After successfully getting the mount, the lemmings and I returned to the base. The profiteer was waiting for me. When he saw me coming back, he immediately traded me a piece of equipment, which was the tiger stripe cloak. I got it from him for 12,000 gold coins and a good dark gold equipment. The profiteer said to me angrily, "I have never done such a loss-making business before. The price is at least twice the market price! Damn, that guy better not do business with me again in the future, otherwise I will give him a skin!"
I was also amused when I heard this. Actually, I was the one who paid the money, but any business that passed through the hands of a dishonest businessman would always strive to maximize profits and minimize costs. This was his strength, but being too strong-willed was also his weakness.
In the past, I would never have spent the extra few thousand gold coins, but since I started playing Fantasy, I have had good luck, especially after I got the Cornucopia. I can earn hundreds of gold coins every day just by going out to kill monsters (when I killed a tree monster the day before yesterday, it would increase by 10 times, not to mention that if I get a holy spirit or a magic weapon, I would make a fortune at once). Now I have experienced the feeling of rich people playing games. In my eyes, gold coins have become virtual digital signals. I only worry about financial problems when the gang construction encounters financial difficulties. Well, this shows that I am still far from the real rich, who can always exchange millions of deposits in the bank for game coins!
In fact, with my family background, it is absolutely a unique miracle to establish a gang in Fantasy. According to a survey conducted by some websites a long time later, the average personal wealth of the leaders who have established gangs in Fantasy is more than 1.8 million! And one-third of them also disbanded due to lack of financial resources! According to statistics, the average capital investment of gangs that can gain a foothold in Fantasy is more than 5 million (of course, it is not necessarily the investment of one person alone), and there are only a few who can finally recover their investment and make money from the game through successful operation. The one who really made a lot of money from building a gang is the New Era Group. Countless gold coins were consumed in the development and construction of the gang and the expansion of the territory, which actually flowed into the company's pockets, especially the battles between gangs. In a large-scale group battle, the expenses of both sides may be calculated in units of 100,000 gold coins. On the surface, after the popularization of gang building, the income from various functions of the system city (such as selling medicines, repairing and identifying equipment, etc.) will be diverted to the hands of players, but in fact, the company's money-making targets are concentrated on those who already have money (or groups), and the burden of ordinary players is reduced. This principle itself is not difficult to understand, but in order to pursue the pleasure of being a big shot, and many people who are confident that they have strong abilities and are capable of competing for the extremely few opportunities to make money, still happily invest their real wealth in the game...
I don't know which category I belong to. If I don't establish the Thunder League, all the money I have earned from the beginning of the game to now will be converted into real wealth (not including Tiger Soul and Cornucopia). I can't say that I have become middle class, but at least I am at the level of petty bourgeoisie. And with the benefits brought by my current super equipment, if I continue to work hard for a period of time, I am afraid that a house and a car will not be a problem. It should have far exceeded my initial expected goal, but now I think it will be very boring, because everything also originated from my lucky account rather than my own ability! But if I can really develop the Thunder League and become the No.1 of the dream, it is definitely not something that can be done by a mere lucky account. That is the embodiment of my ability. Even if I fail in the end, such a process itself is my greatest pleasure. I am no longer the Haotian who only pays attention to results in the past! Thinking of this, my heart moved. If I can put this mentality into feelings, maybe I can get rid of the shadow of the past...
The profiteer saw me standing there grinning for a long time, and asked curiously, "Xue, what are you standing there for? You already have the artifact, so a set of Tiger King equipment shouldn't be worth being so happy about, right?"
The profiteer's words interrupted my train of thought. I then remembered that I had already collected the King Tiger set, but had not yet opened it. How could that be possible? I quickly shouted, "I'm going to try on the set!" and ran out of the headquarters.
Because the current gang level of the Thunder Alliance is not high enough to apply for connection to the bank and open a branch in the base, so to deposit and withdraw money and equipment, one has to go to the city. Although returning to the city is not troublesome with the teleportation array, it is still not as convenient and quick as handling it directly in the base. However, that will have to wait until future development.
I returned to Pojun City and first found a blacksmith shop to repair my equipment. Although most of them needed to be replaced, some equipment such as the "Holy Flash" could still be sold for some money if I took good care of them and handed them over to unscrupulous merchants. As for the others, I could give them away as gifts, but if they were not repaired they would look like defective products and I would be embarrassed to show them off!
After I was completely refreshed, I went to the bank, took out the Tiger King suit and put it on, and deposited all the things I had taken off. Now I was shining with golden light, attracting the envious and even jealous eyes of countless players in the bank hall. There was even a female player who shouted on the spot: "Wow! Who is that guy? So handsome! Husband, can you also get a set of equipment like that?"
Haha, I was very proud in my heart. I glanced at the girl's husband. The young man's green face was very interesting. I guess he was a connoisseur of goods. The Tiger King suit is not something you can get just by saying it. I guess what I have is the only complete suit in the entire Fantasy World. This is also because there are very few people above level 40 now, and no one has started to buy high-level equipment. Only unscrupulous merchants can successfully buy cloaks and gloves. Otherwise, you would not be able to buy them even if you have money!
But after putting on this outfit, I do look much more impressive, no wonder that girl reacted so strongly!
The tiger-faced helmet is in the shape of a complete tiger head, with a long tiger mouth that just exposes the face, and two giant teeth on the upper jaw hanging down to protect the cheeks. In a word, cool! Its attributes are physical defense 30-60, magic defense 20-40, physical damage -5%, magic damage -5%, physical damage reflection 20% (different from attack reflection, this means that no matter how much physical damage any object causes to me, he must bear 20% of the damage reflection, and this is true for every attack, there is no probability problem. For example, if I PK with someone, he cuts my 100 HP with the first attack, and he immediately loses 20 points of blood, and the second attack deducts 150 HP from me, and he also loses 30 points of blood). Regardless of its additional attributes, even the basic attributes of physical defense and magic defense are better than the worse armor! It's so cool!
The Tiger King Armor, the tiger head pattern on the front of the chest, is absolutely ferocious, with a very vivid expression, as if it is preparing to devour its prey, which makes me feel more murderous. In terms of attributes, it has 50-120 physical defense, 40-100 magic defense, physical damage -10%, magic damage -10%, physical defense +5%, magic defense +5%, and an extremely rare additional basic attribute, Constitution +1!
The tiger-printed cloak is longer than the ankles, fluttering in the wind, full of arrogance, and has a ferocious tiger embroidered on the back, which is really a handsome item. In general, cloaks are actually a kind of decoration, and their properties are usually very bad, but this tiger-printed cloak has the properties of physical defense 10-20, magic defense 10-20, physical and magic damage -5%, and miss rate +30%, which is very practical.
The rest of the tiger skin boots, tiger skin gloves, and tiger tooth necklace are also gorgeous and beautiful, and their attributes are also top-grade compared to the dark gold equipment of the same level. The additional attributes after the full set of equipment is equipped, physical defense, magic defense +15%, physical and magic damage -20%, wound tear probability -30%, freezing time halved, 5% chance of "Tiger King Possession", and the skill "Tiger Power"! It's really powerful!
In general, this is a set of defensive equipment, and it is more focused on magic defense, which just makes up for my weakness of low spiritual awareness. Wearing the Tiger King suit, my strength has been raised to a higher level. To exaggerate a little, now I am immortal even if I am surrounded by monsters that are not more than 20 levels higher than me! The increase in defense is of great benefit to my plan to make a fortune tomorrow. For this reason, the more than 10,000 gold coins I spent on buying a cloak today are not in vain!
Although the gazes from all around can satisfy a person's vanity, I'm not interested in putting on a fashion show here and having people watch me like they're watching a giant panda, so I'll just slip away as soon as possible!
When I returned to the base, I saw the God of the Divine Realm and the mouse who loved corn there. I immediately dragged them to the fighting arena to test the effect of the Tiger King suit in person.
The fighting arena is a place in Fantasy World specifically used for players to exchange skills and practice PK techniques. There is no penalty for fighting here, and no loss of experience or equipment for death, so you can naturally let go.
The God of the Divine Realm and the Rat are both experts, and they are a combination of a warrior and a magician. Their strength should not be underestimated. When they saw me going one-on-two, all the members near the headquarters gathered around me, and some even opened bets, making it extremely lively. This kind of scene is also something I am happy to see, as it can enhance the relationship between the members, and by watching the masters' duel, they can also absorb the skills and experience, which can improve the PK level of the members.
Now I am more familiar with the important cadres of the God Realm, so there is no more nonsense. After the scene, I said: "I got a new set of equipment today, and I want to try its effect, so I want to find two brothers to learn from each other. We are all family, so let's play around, come on!"
The God of the God Realm said: "Okay! Brothers, of course I admire the leader's strength, but since we are joining forces, the boss should also be careful!" After saying that, he rushed forward and slashed at me with a sword!
God's tactics were standard. He was a warrior and rushed up to fight me in close combat so that I could not split myself. The rats took the opportunity to use magic to attack from a distance. Although it was not surprising, it was the most solid way of fighting. I could only fight head-on and it was impossible for me to use any strange tactics to break their coordination.
God's sword used the "heavy strike" skill instead of activating the "sword energy" skill. It would have been easy for me to dodge it, but in order to test the defense of the Tiger King suit, I deliberately did not dodge or evade. Instead, I took the initiative to move my body forward and counterattacked with a tiger soul stab, showing a tough fighting style.
The two of them fought, and the God Realm God felt overwhelmed. Tiger Soul's sword reduced his HP by more than 1,200, while his sword only reduced my HP by more than 200. He also lost more than 40 HP due to damage reflection. Although his current attack power is not as good as the opponent Wulutian in the finals of the martial arts competition, it is an indisputable fact that my physical defense has increased by nearly twice as much as it did then.
At the same time, the rat's fireball also hit me, causing slightly more damage to me than the God of the God Realm, but only about 300 points. My weakness of low magic defense was greatly improved.
In this round, both sides were just testing each other. Shen had experienced the power of my Tiger Soul and didn't dare to fight hard anymore. He started a mobile fight. His agility was higher than mine, but my tiger-skin boots increased my movement speed a lot, plus the archer skill accelerated it, so both sides were basically . Therefore, the two of them circled around each other, and for a while neither of them could find a good opportunity to attack.
But Lao Shu definitely didn't just stand there and watch the show. He put up a few fire walls. Because he was teaming up with the God of the Divine Realm, the fire wouldn't hurt the God, but it greatly limited my range of movement. After that, he switched to ice arrows. Once I was frozen, the God would definitely not miss the opportunity to chop me a few times. So, the combination of different professions is often much more powerful than the combination of a single profession.
In order to avoid the wall of fire, I had to pass through the narrow gaps between the flames, which made it easy for God to grasp my movement route. His chance to take action had come!
The sword skill brought up a green half-moon-shaped sword energy, which broke through the air and penetrated the wall of fire, cutting straight into my waist and ribs!
In the past, I had absolutely no way to dodge such an attack, but recently through continuous training, my reaction speed has greatly increased. As soon as the god's sword energy was released, I had quickly determined its angle and direction, turned my body sideways, and leaned back, narrowly avoiding the sword energy. However, my body was already in an extremely unfavorable posture. The god is also a PK master, so of course he would take advantage of the situation to chase me. He strode through the wall of fire, and before I could stand up, he gave me a double kill from the left side of my body from a high position!
I was holding the Tiger Soul in my right hand at this time, and the inertia of leaning back naturally stretched my arms, so the Tiger Soul was swung to the right side of my body. It was a long weapon, so it was difficult to turn it in a hurry. It was impossible to launch a counterattack against the God in this posture! However, I pulled my right hand inward, letting the handle of the Tiger Soul pass through my back. My left hand took over the tail of the handle, and I swung it upward with my backhand. The whole knife was against my back, turning from the right side to the left side, and I made a backhand upward slash. Although I failed to avoid the two consecutive slashes of the God, he was also hit by my knife in the lower abdomen. Both sides groaned, the God flew back, and I turned over and stood up, and the confrontation was restored.
The two sides fought for a while, and I was hit by the mouse's ice arrow by accident and was frozen. The god was overjoyed and immediately pounced on me and hacked at me!
Fortunately, my defense was strong enough, even though I couldn't use medicine in the frozen state, the god didn't kill me in just a few seconds. But the god made a mistake. The mouse's ice arrow level had a freezing effect of 10 seconds, but I didn't expect that the additional attribute of the tiger king suit would halve the freezing time. After the god slashed twice, he calculated that he could add one or two more hits, but I had already broken through the ice. The tiger soul stabbed, leaving a deep scar on the chest of the god of the divine world who had no time to react, and it also added a wound tearing effect!
The god retreated quickly and took medicine to heal his wounds. In fact, if I took advantage of the situation to pursue him, with the sword light that Tiger Soul could shoot out at any time, I could very likely kill the god. But if I did that, the battle would end too boringly, so I gave up attacking the god and turned to kill the mouse.
The mouse who loves corn was frightened when he saw me rushing over. He couldn't stand my attack of Tiger Soul, which would kill him instantly. He had no choice but to run away immediately. Relying on his high agility, he led me to run around the fighting field. I laughed and said, "Brother, this is not right. I'm not riding a mount, otherwise how could you run away? If you don't stop, I'll shoot you with my bow and arrow! Or just come over and let me chop you!"
"That won't do. Boss, your Tiger Soul is too terrifying. I'd rather be shot by an arrow than stabbed. Well, I will stay away from you!"
At this time, the God of the Divine Realm had finished replenishing his blood, and rushed over to stop me from chasing the mouse. He was hit by another sword. This time I failed to dodge it, but my Tiger Soul counterattacked, deliberately not using any skills. The God mistakenly thought I used a thrust, and made a slight mistake in judging my attack speed. Although he barely dodged my first strike, I seized the opportunity and used the second strike to strike him, injuring him again! Just as he was about to strike again, I was hit by the mouse's lightning again, and my body went numb, so the position of his attack was off, and the God escaped.
Haha, the gap in strength between the two sides is a bit big. Although I was hit more times, the joint attack of the two of them could not pose a fatal threat to me, so I fought very easily. On the contrary, they were nervous about every attack on me. If they were not careful, they would be killed instantly, which made me very passive.
But what ended the battle was a unique attribute of the Tiger King suit: Tiger King Possession! This is when the Tiger King's soul will randomly appear in front of me during the battle and launch an attack. As for when it appears and how it attacks, it is all randomly calculated by the computer and cannot be controlled autonomously. Although the probability of appearance is only 5%, which can be ignored for leveling, in PK, the sudden occurrence of Tiger King Possession often has a decisive impact. This time, the mighty Tiger King suddenly appeared in front of me and roared like a tiger king. The gods in the divine world could still withstand it, but the mouse's HP was much less than that of Xiao Yi at the beginning, and it was killed instantly. The god was alone and couldn't handle it. Without waiting for me to make a move, he immediately took the initiative to admit defeat.
Well, I am quite satisfied with my ability to easily defeat two masters without using my full strength and without riding a horse. Hehe, I wonder if I will be able to achieve the feat of defeating a hundred ?
After finishing the friendly PK with God and Mouse, I rode Coco and went to Kunlun again, killing monsters for several hours. First, through actual combat with monsters, I evaluated the effect of the Tiger King suit in leveling, and second, I also got familiar with Coco's performance. After all, its speed is much faster than the Black King. Without practice, it is difficult to perfectly coordinate the offensive and defensive skills in battle with the mount.
The result of the actual test is that I am very satisfied with the Tiger King suit. Even if I don't use those defensive skills of dodging and blocking, when I am besieged by monsters over level 60, the reduction of HP is still within the range of the blood replenishment speed of Life Water, and I don't even need to take the small pill. And with the double absorption 10% attribute of Tiger Soul, as long as I start to attack, I can save red and blue medicines. If I want, I can even rush into the group of level 70 monsters to level up without potions! It's just that the experience reward brought by the level correction is at most 100%, so I don't need to kill monsters of too high a level, and it is most suitable to kill monsters 20 levels higher than me.
In fact, there are many dark gold suits of the same level as the Tiger King suit, such as the "War Song Suit", "Warrior's Badge Suit", "Passat's Legacy Suit", etc. Among them, Passat's Legacy is a knight-only suit, and its attributes are slightly better than the Tiger King suit. But let's not talk about this set of equipment is a specialty of the Western Continent, and it is impossible to play it in the Eastern Continent. For me personally, the Tiger King suit is the most suitable equipment for me at present! Because the Tiger King suit makes up for my weaknesses very well, now I am strong in both offense and defense, and my overall strength has been upgraded, and it is not like the obvious defect of too low magic defense before.
I greeted July 13 with full confidence. From the numerical point of view, this is not an auspicious day, but I am lucky and of course I am not afraid. I still want to make a lot of money on this day!
I went online and returned to the base. It was still early and the profiteers hadn't come yet. I made some preparations, especially went to the city to repair my equipment and bought some items that the alliance couldn't supply yet, and then returned to the headquarters to wait.
Not long after, the profiteer came online. After saying hello to me, he went to Pojun City and came back with ten people. He introduced them one by one: "This is Xuehai Wuya, a level 40 warrior; this is Anjian, a level 39 mage; this is Wuqing Swordsman, a level 39 swordsman; this is Linglongxin, a level 39 archer; this is Kuangba Tianxia, ​​a level 38 berserker. Those are the strongest elites under their command. Haha, this is our boss, so there is no need to introduce him. Well, I won't say more. Let's cooperate sincerely. I hope everything goes well. I also wish you can establish a gang as soon as possible."
Hehe, this is how I make money. These players are all players that the profiteer contacted through his channels. They have certain power and want to form a gang, but have not yet gained enough reputation. There are many such "quasi-bosses" in Fantasy. After analysis, the profiteer selected five of them who are neither too powerful nor too weak, have money, have a reputation of more than 5,000, and are eager to form a gang as soon as possible.
My idea is that I now have the ability to fight against D-level bosses alone. Kunlun Mountains are still a restricted area, and few players come here. In the past few days of leveling, I have found several D-level boss refresh points in the mountains, and I have not fought any of those bosses. After contacting these people, the profiteer made an agreement with them that I would take them to the mountains to kill D-level bosses. Although there is no extra reputation reward for killing D-level bosses now, a boss itself has 500 basic reputation points. Killing a boss in a team also has a reputation point bonus like gaining experience. 6 people can get a total reputation of 220% of the basic reputation, and it is divided equally! In this way, each person can get 183 reputation points for killing a D-level boss, which is much faster than them doing those small tasks to earn reputation by themselves. And I guarantee that within two days, each of them will get at least 3,500 reputation points, and each of them will pay me 100,000 gold coins as a reward!
Why don't they organize their own team to fight the boss in the mountain to gain reputation? Haha, without my help, according to the level of ordinary players, if they want to go to Kunlun Mountain, they will die if they are less than level 35, because the monsters there are at least level 60 or above! Therefore, they can only choose the elites under their command to form a team, so it is impossible to organize a large-scale team to go up the mountain. When facing a D-level Boss, a team composed of players less than level 40 is not impossible to kill, but it will cost a lot. According to current information, many large groups have organized to kill D-level Boss, but on average they lose about 200 players! There are no more than 10 organizations in the whole fantasy that can bear such a cost. Even these big organizations don't dare to go to Kunlun Mountain, because there are many monsters stronger than D-level bosses. If you are unlucky and encounter one, it is beyond the current players' ability to contend with. It is useless to have more people, and the loss will be too great. Therefore, they can only go to relatively safe places like Tiger Roaring Forest with a single type of monsters to kill super bosses, but there are not many such places. Super bosses only refresh once a week. There are too many people and too little porridge. It is difficult to grasp the balance to ensure that the boss can give the final blow to the boss so as to gain exclusive reputation. As a result, not many people have a reputation of more than 7,000, which is not much faster than completing tasks.
My tactics are different. I team up with the five of them and go to Kunlun with the most elite team. Plus, I am an experienced person, so my safety is greatly guaranteed. After finding the D-level boss, they and their subordinates will be responsible for dealing with the henchmen. With the strength of our team, it is still no problem. I will fight the super boss alone, and I don't need their help. They just sit back and enjoy the success and share the reputation.
I calculated that they could kill about ten D-level bosses in one day, and each person could get nearly 4,000 reputation in two days, but this was enough to qualify them to form a gang more than ten days in advance. You know, the earlier you start to form a gang, the more advantages you will have, such as being the first to choose the best location, and it is easier to recruit new members when there are fewer gangs. These people are rich, so they are naturally willing to spend 100,000 gold coins in exchange for these ten days, not to mention that they also have income. One of the details in our agreement is that I will get half of the things that are dropped by the boss, and the other five will share it equally. If they are lucky enough to get a few pet eggs, their capital will be returned. As for me, although I am confident that I can fight the D-level boss alone, those followers will be difficult to deal with without help. And if I organize allies to fight treasures, the spoils obtained will have to be shared equally by everyone, and the income will not be much. Now if this plan goes well, not counting the gold coins and equipment that are dropped, I can earn 500,000 just from their rewards, and I have a deeper plan. Humph, didn't Xiao Yi say that many people are watching the Thunder Alliance now? I helped them set up a gang before those big organizations, which would definitely distract their attention. I also established a friendship with them. Even if I can't form a formal alliance with them in the future, we can still be friends, and I may get help from them at some point.
The profiteers had already negotiated all the terms with them, and they had made preparations before coming, so we didn't waste any time and headed straight for the Kunlun Mountains.
The first target I locked onto was the D-level Boss Tianquan on the nearest Qixing Ridge. This guy randomly spawned on any peak of Qixing Ridge, but I had leveled up here two days ago, so I naturally knew that the current one appeared on Tianshu Peak, so I led the team to kill it directly.
There were many Akainu on Tianshu Peak. I could easily level up with Akainu at level 42, so I naturally didn't take it seriously now. I cleared the way first, and chopped Tiger Soul with my sword. Countless dog monsters fell under my sword. I also noticed that the five quasi-bosses and their assistants were all experts. Each of them could easily deal with two or three monsters. Well, I felt relieved to leave the eight giant Akainu to them when fighting the Tengu later.
Rushing to the top of the mountain, a snow-white celestial dog, slightly larger than an ordinary wolfhound, stood proudly, followed closely by eight calf-sized giant dogs. The celestial dog has the ability to swallow the sun and the moon. The so-called celestial dog eating the moon refers to this kind of monster. Haha, I want to see it for myself.
The distance between the two sides entered the range of long-range attack. The magicians and archers on our side attacked one after another. The heavenly dog ​​on the opposite side did not take any action, but the giant dog behind it sprayed out a series of fireballs in an orderly manner, targeting me, the leader!
The volley of fire from the eight giant dogs was fierce, but I was well prepared and had equipped a shield in advance. I activated the Iron Wall skill and blocked left and right. Tiger Soul also cooperated with me to chop horizontally and vertically, chopped off many fireballs, and I took on this wave of attacks without losing half of my health. I swallowed the Small Huandan and Life Water, and another priest in the team healed me, and my HP was replenished immediately.
The attack was ineffective, so the dog monsters immediately changed their tactics. Four giant dogs used incendiary bombs instead. Although they also spit out fireballs, they did not aim directly at the enemy, but fell on the ground around us to ignite balls of flames, which was similar to the mage's fire wall. The other four dogs pounced on us to launch a close-range attack, and aimed at several people with low health. At this moment, we were surrounded by the fire caused by the incendiary bombs, and there was little room to dodge. Such a wonderful tactical coordination cannot but make people admire the fantastic AI design.
However, as the most intelligent creatures on earth, how could humans not know how to adapt to changing circumstances? Several warriors immediately formed a circle, protecting the mage archer and the priest in the center, leaving the giant dogs no room to enter, and they had no choice but to engage the warriors head-on.
I also won't let the monsters on the opposite side have the opportunity to continue firing incendiary bombs, which would make us helpless and passive. I put away my shield and spurred my horse to launch a charge skill. The unicorns are so fast. The interval between the giant dogs' magic casting is only three or four seconds, but I have already crossed a distance of nearly 100 meters and killed them!
First, I charged and dealt a heavy blow to the Heavenly Dog. As it counterattacked, my long-prepared Hundred Split Thorns slashed out countless golden rays, engulfing both the Heavenly Dog and the giant dog. This round, although I was hit by the Heavenly Dog and the two giant dogs at the same time, I was protected by the Tiger King suit, and my total HP loss was only over a thousand. 10% of the damage caused by the Hundred Split Thorns' super attack power was converted into my own HP through the Tiger Soul, replenishing HP faster than the Small Huandan, and it was replenished almost immediately.
After all, the Hundred Ripping Thorns cannot be fired continuously, and I would still be at a great disadvantage if I continued to fight one against five. Therefore, I spurred my horse and turned around to leave. The five dogs chased me madly, but at this time, Xuehai Wuya and others had already used four warriors to fight four giant dogs. The winner could not be determined in a short time, but the mage, archer and others were no longer in danger. The six of them rushed towards me together and stopped the four giant dogs chasing me according to the predetermined plan. I led the Heavenly Dog away. The D-level Boss was too dangerous for them. Of course, low-blood professions would be killed instantly if hit by one blow, and the warriors could not withstand two or three hits.
The speed of the Heavenly Dog was not inferior to that of the Unicorn, but Coco would naturally run slower with me on his back, so during the chase and escape, the Heavenly Dog attacked me several times. Unfortunately, its average damage to me was only around 600. I could more than withstand it and ran to an open space, reined in my horse, turned around, and officially started a one-on-one duel with the D-level Boss!
Since I obtained Tiger Soul, I have experienced many fierce battles. Now I am very proficient in using this magical weapon. Facing a powerful D-level Boss, I am absolutely confident that I can kill it with my sword!
I slashed diagonally from the upper left to the lower right. The golden blade drew a perfect arc in the air and hit the side of the celestial dog's neck. Blood splattered immediately, but it was also extremely brave. It opened its huge mouth, turned its head and bit my right arm. We were both injured in the fight and both took a few steps back.
Good fellow, come again! Taking advantage of the distance, I charged, my speed instantly reaching the limit, and with one strike of my sword, I chopped the Heavenly Dog in the chest. The strong impact force knocked it several meters away, losing the chance to counterattack.
The celestial dog was enraged. It let out a wild bark, raised its body high, swung its claws in the air, and activated the skill "Half Moon Slash". Seven or eight half-moon-shaped silver rays of light shot towards me!
I don't dare to be careless. According to the introduction on the official website, this is the condensed energy formed by the Heavenly Dog absorbing the essence of Taiyin. It is not only extremely powerful, but also extremely cold. Once hit, the cold air enters the body, blocking the meridians and causing a significant reduction in body flexibility. It is completely different from the freezing effect of the wizard's water magic.
The Half Moon Slash came with great force and there were so many of them that it was impossible to dodge them completely. I seized the opportunity and attacked with the Hundred Splitting Stabs when the aura was less than two meters away from me!
Tiger Soul conjured up numerous sword lights, and the silver aura was swallowed up by the golden sword light which was more than ten times the size, and all of it was defeated and dissipated. I cleverly applied the attack skills to defense!
The Heavenly Dog's attack was ineffective. Half Moon Slash and Hundred Splitting Stabs are both advanced skills, so both sides inevitably need to recover their energy (generally, after launching a skill, the body movement will pause for a while, and the length of time is proportional to the power of the skill and inversely proportional to the character level. This is another advantage of high-level players over low-level players, but the difference is very subtle and non-experts will not even notice it). Therefore, the fierce battle paused for just two seconds. After I regained my ability to move, I rushed forward as soon as possible. After all, I am more advantageous in close combat.
After exchanging a few moves with the Tengu, I found that this guy's movements were much more agile than those of ordinary monsters. With my current combat skills, I can achieve a 70% dodge rate even if two or three Akainu attack at the same time. However, the Tengu's lightning-fast claws often prevent me from reacting in time. My Tiger Soul may not be able to hit me with every strike, especially when it attacks from the side or behind. The Knight's slow turning speed is a major weakness.
However, compared to when I challenged the Tiger King, although without Xiao Yi's assistance and restraint, I felt a lot more relaxed. The Tiger King suit itself has high defense, and many pieces have defense bonus, damage reduction and other attributes, plus the extra attributes of the full set of equipment, even the fatal blow of the Heavenly Dog cannot kill me instantly. And with my load and the amount of medicines I carry, it is enough to ensure that I will be the final winner.
After a moment, I gathered my inner energy again, but held it in without releasing it. I waited for the opportunity when the Heavenly Dog moved in front of me, and then I used my ultimate move!
Now my Hundred Rifts has been trained to level 3, and the hit rate against single targets has reached 59%, so more than half of the sword light hits the Heavenly Dog!
However, to my surprise, this move did not cause much damage to it! As the sword flashed and hit its body, the Heavenly Dog let out a long howl, and its body suddenly expanded like a balloon. When Tiger Soul chopped it, it felt soft and powerless. This was its signature skill "Swallowing the Sun and Eclipse the Moon", which absorbed most of my attack power!
What's even more terrifying is that this skill will rebound the absorbed attack power! Dozens of golden lights burst out from the Heavenly Dog, but fortunately they were non-directional and shot in all directions. Their power was far less than the Hundred Splitting Thorns I used. I was hit by the randomly shot golden light seven or eight times, and each time I only lost about 100 HP. This is different from attack reflection, and it is not counted as a player attack, so the attack power is calculated as 100% instead of 1/5. If it weren't for the absorption and rebound of the Heavenly Dog, the power would have been greatly weakened, and I would have been killed instantly.
I was so frightened that I broke out in a cold sweat. I really must not be careless. Although my strength now is incomparable to what it was before, the opponent is also a D-level Boss after all. I am challenging a higher-level boss, so danger is inevitable. If I am still so arrogant and careless, I may die at any time, and that would be so embarrassing!
Having learned from my lesson, I pulled myself together and focused, preferring to attack less often and ensuring that my HP was always above 3/4 before I fought hard, and I had to be more cautious when using the Hundred Splitting Stabs. After fighting for a while, I gradually adapted to the speed of the Tengu, and by predicting its movements, I was able to dodge two or three times out of 10 attacks.
At this time, the other 10 people had dealt with the eight giant dogs, and they all gathered around and stood at a safe distance of 100 meters away to watch the fight. Seeing that I was getting more and more adept at fighting and had the upper hand, they were all very impressed. You know, challenging a D-level Boss at level 45 is simply a myth. They were originally skeptical about the agreement made by the profiteer, but the profiteer guaranteed a full refund if they failed, so they made the deal with the attitude of giving it a try. Now that they see that I can turn the myth into reality, they are extremely happy, because 100,000 gold coins are simply a small amount of money for them. Now that they are sure that I can help them gain enough reputation to build a gang in advance, it is really a good deal!
In less than half an hour, the Heavenly Dog was almost dead by me. In a desperate attempt, it used its strongest skill, the "Fiery Sun Cannon", a golden ball of light emitted by the essence of the sun. Its power was much greater than that of the Half Moon Slash, but it could not pose much threat to me. It exhausted all its skills and was finally killed by my "Tiger Soul"!
Unfortunately, I was in a team with many people, so the effect of my cornucopia was diluted. The items dropped by the Heavenly Dog were only slightly more than normal, but after all, it was a D-level boss, so the harvest was not bad. The key is that after this battle, our confidence increased greatly, so we did not rest and hurried to find the next boss.
First, we killed the monsters I had discovered earlier, such as Crazy Bird, Dodder King, and Scorpion, because it only takes 4 hours of sleep in the game to restore energy, and now the ratio of game time to real time is 1.2:1, so in real time, we can play for 24 hours a day. Counting the time of walking and looking for monsters, it takes about two hours to kill a D-level Boss. We killed 12 of them in one day, and everyone returned with a full load. Among them, a piece of Holy Spirit equipment was exploded! Dark Sword liked this "Xuan Yuhuan" very much. After asking the profiteer to estimate the price, he sold it to him for 200,000 gold coins. Of course, I got 100,000, and the other four people each got 25,000. In addition, two pet eggs were hit, which were bought by Xuehai Wuya and Linglongxin for 100,000 gold coins respectively. Haha, I got another 100,000 in my account. I really made a lot of money today!
The next day, we went up the mountain again. Today was a little more troublesome because we had killed all the D-level bosses I knew long ago. Now we had to go to unfamiliar places to look for them one by one. Not only was it a waste of time, but we also often encountered high-level monsters. We had no choice but to flee. In particular, we encountered C-level bosses twice, which forced the assistants of Xuehai Wuya and Kuang Ba Tianxia to sacrifice their lives to cover our escape. As a result, we only killed 6 bosses in the whole day, which was only half of yesterday's achievement. However, with the reputation they gained from killing those minions, we also reached the goal of 3,500. I successfully completed the agreement! But today's luck was not as good as yesterday. The things we got were not of high quality. There was only one pet egg, which we sold to Kuang Ba Tianxia.
After two days of fighting together, I have established a good relationship with the five of them. With 3500 reputation, they can all form a gang within a week. Xuehai, Wuqing, and Kuangba have reached an agreement with me to form an alliance immediately once the gang is established. Anjian and Linglongxin also said that they will consider whether to form an alliance depending on the situation. Hehe, with so many allied gangs, it will not be so easy for those big organizations to deal with Jinglei League, right?
