I spent almost four hours killing all the skeletons in the plaza of the Feather Moon Ruins. My experience went from Level 75 17% to Level 75 53%. As expected, soloing was very enjoyable!
Moreover, I was pleasantly surprised to learn Dragon Armor. Not only did it greatly increase my Defense, it also protected my equipment from wear and tear. That was why I had only used up 13% of my equipment's durability in the last five hours. I could still grind for a long time!
Although the skeletons were just enhanced mobs, their gold and equipment drop rate was pretty generous. Each mob dropped about 15 gold. I couldn't remember how many mobs I killed in the afternoon. All I knew was that my bag had almost thirty thousand gold, and dozens of Bronze-grade and Silver-grade armors had dropped. They were just enough to fill up my HP Potions and MP Potions.
Five hours to 36% experience. It looked like my leveling speed at Level 75 was acceptable. Hmm, I'll have to work a bit harder to reach Level 80 in three days!
I made up my mind. It was time to go offline and eat. There were still a lot of mobs to kill. The Feather Moon Ruins was full of mobs, and this map hadn't been discovered by players yet. Most of the players who came here to explore had already been killed by the Corpse Eaters at the entrance of Sunset Valley. Those who could enter couldn't stop the Level 95 skeletons. After all, there was no one else in White Cloud City who had my level and equipment. I could come and go as I pleased, but a Level 50 party of a hundred would have a hard time. Level 95 mobs could crush a Level 50 player, no matter how good your equipment was!
After I went offline, I went to the workshop's living room. The girls were all laughing and chatting.
I sat down on the sofa next to Ling Xue and asked, "What did you get in the afternoon?"
Ling Xue said with a smile, "Of course we got something!
My sister, Sister Qin Yun, and I were a three-man party that charged into the Abyss Graveyard like a hot knife through butter. Hehe, the mobs there were elite at the very least, so we spent the entire afternoon grinding mobs in the Abyss Graveyard and got a lot of experience!
Moreover, before we went offline, we waited until the first boss spawned there. It was a boss called the King of the Graveyard! "
Slightly surprised, I smiled and said, "Oh?
Did the Boss drop any good equipment? "
Qin Yun smiled and nodded, "The Boss was killed. The only loss was that Ling Xue died once, but there was a resurrection prophecy. As for the equipment that the Boss dropped, you can ask Ling Xue. She took the best equipment ~ ~"
I immediately looked at Ling Xue. The little beauty smiled sweetly and said, "A Level 70 Dark Gold – grade legguards and a Level 70 Dark Gold – grade ring that increases physical attack power by 25% ~ ~"
My jaw dropped. "25%?
What insane equipment! Hehe, Ling Xue has struck gold today! "
Ling Xue nodded. "Yes!
A ring that can increase attack power by 25% is really rare! "
"Of course! Normal Dark Gold – grade equipment that increases attack power by 5% is already considered top-tier. That ring of yours that increases attack power by 25% is definitely a top-tier equipment that Warriors can only dream of! Congratulations!"
Ling Yue pursed her lips and smiled. "That's why we'll continue grinding with Snow tonight. Right now, Snow's attack power is the main damage dealer of the party. Our three-man party is really strong!"
I nodded and laughed. "Yeah, you guys are so jealous. When I get my second promotion at Level 80 and equip my Bow of Elemental Destruction, we'll form a four-man party and grind all the high-level leveling places in the world!"
Ling Yue's beautiful eyes were filled with hope. She smiled happily and said, "Hehe, I really want that day to come!
Actually, I don't think we need to be good at the game. We just need to be together and happy, right? "
I stilled. "Why would Ling Yue say that?"
"I understand a little bit..."
"Oh, but if we're not good, we'll be beaten back to the city by the monsters. Then we won't be happy..."
Ling Yue laughed and said exasperatedly, "I may not be good, but you don't have to be that bad, do you?
Oh right, Scholar, how was your afternoon grinding?
Did you have it easy without Qin Yun? "
I nodded. "It was okay. The difficulty of the quest was only 700, so it wasn't as crazy as the previous ones. So the monsters I killed outside the quest center were only Level 95, so they couldn't break through my Defense. Dragon Armor is too useful. I'll definitely be the super tank of our party in the future!"
Ling Yue nodded with a smile. "Yes, that's good. Qin Yun was worried all afternoon that you would die in the Feather Moon Ruins without a priest..."
I turned around and saw Qin Yun blushing. She straightened her clothes and looked at us seriously.
I said, "The map I soloed today is huge, and no other player has entered it before. So, I think I'll have to grind through the night. I'll try to reach Level 80 in three days and stabilize my position as number one. I don't want that crazy Seven-star Lamp to catch up again..."
Ling Yue nodded and said with a smile, "I saw on the forums that someone took over the leveling map of the Seven-Star Lamp. This person actually occupied 15 Undead Puppets, 5 Skeleton Warriors with shields, 5 Skeleton Archers, and 5 Skeleton Mages at the same time. A large group of Undead monsters were helping him kill monsters. It's like a super strong team. It's really abnormal. No wonder this guy's leveling speed is so fast …"
I smiled. "There's no need to be envious of him. Let's rush to Level 80 and get a hidden class. We might not lose to him!"
"Yes!"
Ling Yue nodded seriously and said with a smile, "I like your arrogant tone. Hehe, confident but not arrogant. You're completely different from an idiot like Arrogant Maniac who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth!"
Suddenly, Ling Yue's expression changed, and she shut her mouth tightly, not saying another word. Beside her, Zi Yue's eyes widened, and she muttered, "Director Ling said that she likes scholars … What?
Like Scholar? "
Ling Yue knew that she had made a slip of the tongue and immediately blushed. She emphasized, "Silly Ziyue, don't take my words out of context. I only said that I liked the way the scholar spoke. I didn't say that …"
At the side, Bing Cha smiled and teased, "We didn't misunderstand. Boss, why are you so nervous?
Plus, even Ling Xue didn't say anything, we won't meddle... "
Ling Xue looked at her sister and then at me. She actually said, "If sister likes Scholar, then it's normal. Our Scholar is better than Arrogant Maniac!"
Bing Cha's eyes widened. "Ling Xue, you're not angry?"
Ling Xue blinked her eyes and bluntly said, "Why are you angry?
I don't care about this kind of thing... "
Although she said that, Ling Xue's eyes were lowered, and her expression was uncertain. Anyone could see that she was pretending to be calm.
At this time, Ling Yue also saw the clues and immediately patted her chest. She said confidently, "Um, I said something wrong just now, please don't hold onto it. I only said that I like Scholar's tone, I didn't mean anything else. If anyone says anything else, I'll... I'll punish them to go downstairs and hug a lamppost and sing 'Don't Pick the Wild Flowers by the Roadside'..."
The girls' expressions changed. "This punishment is too sick..."
After a long time, I finally said, "Shouldn't we eat?
After eating, we still have to solo quests all night. Also, Bing Cha and Xia Xia, you guys are too much... "
Bing Cha covered his mouth and laughed. "The person involved has spoken. Alright, alright, let them solve this themselves. We won't interfere. Let's eat, let's eat ~ ~"
And so, after eating, Ling Yue's gaze kept flashing past me. It was as if she was afraid to meet my gaze.
After eating, it was around 6 pm.
I went online and checked the durability of my equipment and potions. Everything was good, and I could definitely last through the night!
Sweeping my gaze across my surroundings, I could only see a gray haze. Dried bones were piled up in the middle of the ruins. The skeleton soldiers that I had killed earlier had yet to respawn. On the minimap, a blinding red dot was right in front of me. However, there were quite a few monsters blocking my path. I had to clear out these monsters before I could kill the Province Magistrate at the red dot!
I held my Star Chasing Bow and walked forward a little. I saw that the ruins of the kingdom had been razed to the ground. On the vast ruins, there were many black Undead Knights roaming the wilderness. The Undead Knights weren't very densely distributed, and they were in groups of twos and threes. At least, that was what I saw.
I used Eye of the Stars to obtain the monster's stats — [Ruin Undead Knight] (Elite Monster)
Level: 95
Attack: 1250-1500
Defense: 800
Health: 50000
Skills: [Death's Shadow], [Undead Slash]
Additional: The former elite cavalry of the Feather Moon Kingdom has now become the slaves of the demons. These human cavalry have lost their physical bodies and turned into skeletons. Their war horses have also been ravaged by the passage of time into undead bone horses. These Undead Knights have become the pioneers of the Army of Darkness. They have fought against the humans and elves of the Silvermoon Alliance for hundreds of years, and the number of human elites that have died under their undead slash is uncountable …
I was slightly stunned. It was actually an elite monster, and it looked very strong!
Because the monsters weren't in groups, I raised my hand and used an Armor Breaking Arrow to lure one over. When it was halfway there, I used a [Flame Dragon Soar]. In the midst of the flames, the Undead Knight almost became a fire knight. By the time it reached me, its health had already been reduced by a large amount!
I quickly switched to my Ice Sword and threw a [Shield Breaking Slash] + [Total Annihilation] combo. After a few "Cha Cha Cha" sounds, a few numbers jumped up — — "7652!"
“3248!”
“3334!”
“3501!”
The attack power of [Shield Breaking Slash] wasn't high, but its ability to ignore defense was extremely strong. As a result, the Undead Knight's 800 Defense was completely ignored!
After suffering a series of attacks, the Undead Knight was furious. It immediately roared and the sharp sword in its hand glowed with a purple light. It slashed down!
I was slightly shocked. It was [Undead Slash]!
"Crack!" I couldn't dodge in time and took the Undead Slash head-on. The [Dragon Armor] around me shook a bit, and a faint rebound force blocked part of the attack. However, I still lost 254 health. It seemed that this Undead Knight's attack power was much stronger than the Skeleton Warrior's. Although it couldn't break through my Defense, it at least made me feel a bit of pain.
After taking 254 of my health, the Undead Knight didn't seem to be satisfied. It raised its sword again and used a spell, [Death's Shadow]!
A black light enveloped me. Immediately, my attack power was reduced by 5%, from 1977 to 1878. The effect wasn't too big, but it was very uncomfortable to look at.
Thus, I quickly killed the Undead Knight. After killing it, I actually had full health. What made me speechless was that if a Undead Knight fought me alone, my [Lifesteal] would be enough to make up for the lost health.
"Crash!" The Undead Knight howled and fell to the ground with its bone horse. At the same time, it dropped a small pile of gold coins and a shimmering wrist guard.
There were 42 gold coins, which was much better than a strengthened monster. That wrist guard was also a hot item in White Cloud City at the current stage — —
[Chilling Bone Wrist Guard] (Silver Tier – Armor)
Defense: 75
Strength: + 15
Stamina: + 10
Additional: Increases the user's attack power by 1%
Level Requirement: 60
Equipment Set Stats:???
(Unappraised)
… …
Hehe, it was a pretty good Silver-grade equipment. It was definitely one of the best Silver-grade equipment out of all the others. It added at least 10 points to all stats, and there would be even more after I appraised it. Moreover, it was a set. Every piece added 1% attack power, so the set would definitely add even more. This was the best equipment set for middle to high-level warriors!
I laughed out loud. Looks like these Undead Knights were the monsters that dropped the Chilling Bone Set. Since I was determined to grind monsters today, I might as well grind through the night. The Chilling Bone Set's stats were so strong. If I put it together and sold it back in the city, it would probably sell for more than 50,000 RMB!
Of course, the reason why I was selling it for RMB was because the exchange rate between gold and RMB was already lower than 1: 1. It was around 2 gold coins for 1 RMB. My money-farming workshop was facing an unprecedented test of survival!
As for my shop, I had long since activated the function of exchanging gold coins for RMB. I didn't have to worry about the depreciation of gold coins at all.
Furthermore, Ling Xue and Ling Yue had revealed that their Snow Moon website was doing very well. Their daily turnover was around 50,000 RMB. Although it wasn't very high, the two beauties were beaming with joy. Ling Yue had once told me that once she started making money, Ling Tian's attitude towards our workshop would definitely change!
Of course, I also hoped that Ling Tian's attitude would change. That way, Ling Xue and Ling Yue would be able to happily mingle in the game. This was also what I wanted to see.
I looked up and saw another elite Undead Knight. It wielded a heavy sword and rode a bone horse. Its eyes were glowing as it stared at me. It was like a tiger looking at a lonely lamb.
