Chapter 370: Chapter 220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_3
Chapter 370 -220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_3
At this moment, Mu Rufeng was hovering in midair.
Flying is many people's dream, yearning to soar freely through the sky.
And now, Mu Rufeng had achieved it.
In the Mysterious World, upon reaching Level 7, one could fly through the air by relying on Ghost Power.
However, in the Mysterious World, basically no one did this.
Firstly, in the city, you never knew where there might be taboos, and secondly, there were some law enforcement departments that simply didn't allow flying within the city.
And in the endless wilderness outside the city, covered in fog, when you flew, the consumption of Ghost Power was even greater. Once Ghost Power was exhausted, it would no longer be fun.
For Mu Rufeng, although his strength was sufficient, the lack of Ghost Power meant he couldn't fly, which was a significant drawback.
But now, Mu Rufeng managed to fly using the Flame Armor's ability.
Just like the Human Torch from the Fantastic Four, he could control the flames beneath his feet to continuously blast out and therefore achieve the function of flying.fгeewebnovёl.com
At the same time, controlling the direction was extremely convenient, achievable by simply lifting his hands and ejecting flames.
Of course, to become proficient in flying still required plenty of practice.
As it was, Mu Rufeng could only manage vertical takeoff and landing, and controlling a change of direction was really quite challenging.

…
[Congratulations to the player for killing a LV17 Earth Dragon Beast (Elite), gaining +2000 experience points, +34 credits, and an additional 2000 experience points for killing a monster above your level.]
[Your experience points are full, your level has increased to LV11, you have gained 2 free attribute points and 2 skill points to distribute freely.]
Mu Rufeng immediately added two attribute points to Spirit.
The higher the Spirit, the stronger the Spells he could cast.
At the same time, Mu Rufeng added two skill points to his Flame Armor.
Instantly, Mu Rufeng found that the Flame Armor consumed less Mana and its power had also increased slightly.
It was then that Mu Rufeng turned his gaze to the plains below.
At the moment, what plains? Only a huge, charred crater remained, several kilometers in diameter.
The ground was blackened, emanating a pungent stench, as if from some foul liquid or charred flesh evaporating into the air.
Suddenly, a commotion arose in the distance. Mu Rufeng looked in that direction to see the land further off rolling over and over.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the Earth Dragon Beasts that hadn't been attacked, desperately fleeing into the distance.
Clearly, Mu Rufeng's move had frightened the Earth Dragon Beasts away.
"Trying to run? That won't do; you are all my experience points."
Mu Rufeng didn't even glance at the various items scattered in the huge pit, even those emitting a purple glow. Compressed flames continued to blast from his back, propelling Mu Rufeng forward with a rush.
Although he was flying, it has to be said, he was still somewhat unpracticed. During flight, he often wobbled, spun in circles, and veered off course uncontrollably.
However, within just a few minutes, Mu Rufeng had mastered the ability to fly proficiently.
He could go wherever he desired, no longer experiencing erratic movements or spinning in circles.
At this moment, the plains had returned to calm, the withered grass also vanished. Obviously, were those withered grasses some kind of tentacles from the Earth Dragon Beasts?
If one didn't dig up the ground, they wouldn't notice the Earth Dragon Beasts' presence.
But did Mu Rufeng need to discover the Earth Dragon Beasts?
"Monsters, are you ready to receive the baptism of flames?"
Mu Rufeng waved the Magic Wand in his hands, and suddenly countless Fireballs appeared in midair, then plummeted like meteors into the depths of the earth.
"Booming sounds~~!"
Intense roaring erupted.
Mu Rufeng wasn't just firing at one spot but quickly soared above the plains.
Wherever he passed, a barrage of Fireballs fell, each one like a miniature mushroom cloud.
The ground shook violently, and the sky was dyed a fiery red; the scene was as if Heaven and Earth were shattering.
[Congratulations to the player for killing a LV16 Earth Dragon Beast, gaining +1200 experience points, +16 credits, and an additional 1200 experience points for killing a monster above your level.]
…
[Congratulations to the player for killing a LV17 Earth Dragon Beast (Elite), gaining +2000 experience points, +34 credits, and an additional 2000 experience points for killing a monster above your level.]
Notification sounds kept ringing in his ears, mostly from ordinary Earth Dragon Beasts, with quite a few from Elite Monsters.
But after a full round, Mu Rufeng had not seen any notifications for killing a Commander Level BOSS.
[Your experience points are full, your level has increased to LV12, you have gained 2 free attribute points and 2 skill points to distribute freely.]
[Your experience points are full, your level has increased to LV13, you have gained 2 free attribute points and 2 skill points to distribute freely.]
When no new notification sounds emerged, Mu Rufeng's level had reached thirteen.
[Level]: LV13 (1030/409600)
"However, I'm only level thirteen and already need four hundred thousand experience, thankfully the experience value is fixed. Otherwise, leveling up would really be the death of me."
Ignoring the large number of items on the ground, Mu Rufeng was ready to leave the area.
Suddenly, the ground shook again.
Then, the ground split open to reveal a huge crater.
Following that, a gigantic Earth Dragon, over twenty meters long, shot out from the depths of the earth.
Upon seeing Mu Rufeng for the first time, it opened its abyssal maw lined with fine, sharp teeth and sprayed a pale yellow liquid directly at Mu Rufeng.
[Earth Dragon Beast Commander]: The leader of the Earth Dragon Clan, overseeing the clan, slumbers deep underground, revealing itself only when the clan faces the threat of extinction.Chapter 371: Chapter 220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_4
Chapter 371 -220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_4
Level: 20
Life Value: 100000
Attack Power: 1500-2000
Special Attributes…
Skills…
The Life Value is pretty high, actually reaching a hundred thousand.
Mu Rufeng became slightly interested.
"I wonder if it can withstand one of my Fireball Techniques," Mu Rufeng waved his magic wand.
A fireball with a diameter of over ten meters rapidly formed.
Even the old phlegm spat out by the Earth Dragon Beast Commander didn't come close before it was evaporated by the high temperature.
Just as Mu Rufeng was about to release it, a sudden thought occurred to him, and then he cast the Poison Gas Magic Bomb Skill inherent to his magic wand.
Instantly, a Poison Gas Bomb nearly as big as the fireball appeared beside it.
Mu Rufeng stood in mid-air as the fireball and the Poison Gas Bomb began to merge.
Suddenly, a gigantic Poison Fireball emitting green flames appeared in front of Mu Rufeng.
With the two merged, their size increased even more, reaching thirty meters.
The Earth Dragon Commander seemed to sense the terror of the Poison Fireball and without hesitation, plunged into the ground and burrowed into the earth, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"You run pretty fast. One might not be enough, so let me add a few more, and let's see how powerful my Poison Fireball is, and if it can blast you out."
With a wave of Mu Rufeng's magic wand, numerous fireballs and Poison Gas Bombs materialized and then merged together.
In no time, more than ten Poison Fireballs appeared.
Immediately, these ten-plus Poison Fireballs turned into streaks of green light, spreading in all directions.
Seconds later, the Poison Fireballs exploded.
Giant mushroom clouds, hundreds of meters high, rose up.
From the center of the explosions, the ground collapsed rapidly, and a powerful shockwave carrying green poison gas spread out in all directions.
Mu Rufeng hovered in mid-air, completely untouched by the shockwave.
He just watched quietly.
After a long while, the terrifying disturbance subsided.
As far as the eye could see, there was no more grassland, only over ten huge craters left behind.
[Congratulations to the player for killing a Level 20 Earth Dragon Commander (Commander Level), Experience Points +20000, Points +80, Extra Experience Points for killing above your level +20000, Extra Experience Points for killing a Commander Level monster +20000]
[Congratulations to the player on being the first to kill a Level 20 Commander Level monster, extra Points +200, Experience Points +20000, would you like to make a full instance announcement?]
"One monster, all in all, makes eighty thousand experience points. Leveling up is quite easy, huh? Announce it, announce it," Mu Rufeng said with a smile on his face.
Suddenly, Mu Rufeng caught sight of a hint of orange light from under the ground.
"Eh? Could it be some good loot?" Mu Rufeng immediately flew down and quickly appeared below.
The Earth Dragon Beast Commander didn't drop much, just three items: two pieces of equipment and one card.
Apart from these three items, there was also a stack of soul banknotes.
Among the equipment, one shone with an orange glow while the other emitted a red glow.
Mu Rufeng picked up the soul banknotes and all three items.
[Earth Dragon Beast Summon Card]: Once activated, can summon a Level 20 Earth Dragon Beast Commander to assist in combat for a duration of 120 seconds. Cooldown time of two hours.
[Earth Dragon Battle Blade]: Forged from the fangs of an Earth Dragon Beast, it possesses great power.
Level Restriction: 20
Profession Restriction: Warrior
Equipment Quality: Red
Attack Power: 1500-2000
Special Attributes: All Attributes +20, Defensive Power +100, Attacks carry a Sharp effect.
Skill: [Earth Dragon Drill]: When used, moves with the blade to pierce through defenses, ignoring them and adding true damage.
"Er… Earth Dragon Drill? Poison… Did I somehow get sidetracked?" Mu Rufeng was somewhat surprised.
Then, he looked towards the last piece of equipment.
[Earth Dragon Heart]
Level Restriction: 20
Equipment Position: Necklace
Profession Restriction: None
Equipment Quality: Orange
Special Attributes: Strength +20, Constitution +20, Spirit +30. When underground, All Attributes +50, Defensive Power +1000, Life Force and Mana recovery speed +200%
Accompanying Skill: [Earth Walking Technique]: Allows for movement through the earth.
"Eh, this orange equipment is quite interesting, Earth Walking Technique?" Mu Rufeng didn't hesitate and immediately put it around his neck.
However, the equipment was not successfully equipped because Mu Rufeng had not yet reached Level 20.
But he guessed it must be somewhat like the Earth Tunneling Technique mentioned in novels.
He figured the faster the speed, the more strength would be consumed, and the deeper the position, the more strength it would require.
After storing the equipment in his Item Slot, he relied on his Flame Armor to fly up into the sky and continued heading towards the depths of the mist.
After flying past the giant crater and covering some distance, Mu Rufeng arrived at a lake.
The lake was huge; looking across, one could only see the foggy edges and not the far end.
But even within his line of sight, it stretched for several kilometers.
And the true size was undoubtedly many times larger.
A very thick smell of blood emanated from the lake, making one's nose a bit uncomfortable.
It must be said, the smell was truly ubiquitous in this wilderness.
"Whoosh~~!"
Suddenly, there was a huge commotion on the surface of the water below.
A giant crocodile burst out of the water and rapidly crawled towards the shore.
It moved quickly but seemed panicked, as if there were something terrifying in the water chasing it.
The next second, black weeds were shot out one after another from the water, catching up with the crocodile in a blink of an eye and entangling it.
The crocodile immediately performed a death roll and quickly shredded the weeds.
Unfortunately, before the crocodile could escape, more weeds wrapped around itChapter 372: Chapter 220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_5
Chapter 372 -220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_5
The helpless crocodile once again performed its death roll, but it only managed to entangle itself with even more aquatic weeds.
It wasn't long before the crocodile lost its ability to move, swiftly dragged beneath the water's surface by the weeds.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng snapped his fingers, launching a fireball the size of a fingernail cap, which darted directly towards the crocodile's head.
A muffled "boom!" was heard.
The crocodile's head exploded instantaneously.
[Congratulations player for killing LV22 Black Water Crocodile, experience points +2200, points +22, gained an additional 2200 experience points for killing a higher-level monster]
"Four thousand four hundred experience points, not bad at all," Mu Rufeng nodded in satisfaction.
The aquatic weeds seemed to sense the scorching heat and were startled, quickly retracting back into the lake.
However, the very next second, another direction within the lake sprouted numerous aquatic weeds that quickly wrapped around the corpse of the crocodile, dragging it back into the water.
Fireball Technique—
Mu Rufeng waved his magic wand, a multitude of fireballs descended from the sky, bombarding Black Water Lake.
"Boom boom boom!!"
"Hiss hiss hiss!!"
The sounds of explosions and boiling water resonated through the sky.
Billowing steam gushed forth, containing an extremely pungent odor that made Rufeng frown and retreat to the shore.
[Congratulations player for killing LV23 Black Water Weed Monster, experience points +2300, points +23, gained an additional 2300 experience points for killing a higher-level monster]
…
A sequence of prompts flashed by, and after counting, Mu Rufeng had only killed a little over twenty monsters.
And they were all Black Water Weed Monsters, without exception.
It was quite apparent that the waters near the shore were the territory of the Black Water Weed Monsters.
The steam slowly dispersed, the lake quickly refilled the pits along the shore, and soon the water returned to its calm state.
After that, Mu Rufeng began bombing the lake water recklessly.
What surprised Mu Rufeng, though, was that releasing fireballs along the shore resulted in more monster kills.
But once he reached deeper waters, the number of monsters killed decreased.
With some thought, he understood.
Clearly, in deeper waters, his Fireball Technique was weakened, so its lethality wasn't as fearsome.
Another factor was that monsters were more scattered in deeper parts of the lake.
The water in Black Water Lake itself was already quite odd, seeming to possess some special abilities, and thus it diminished the effect of flames even more.
"This lake is so vast; even if I rained down fireballs all around to kill monsters, it would still be slow. I wonder if I could use poison to kill the monsters?"
Mu Rufeng suddenly thought of his Corpse Ghost Poison Wand's attached Poison Gas Bomb.
The toxicity of this Poison Gas Bomb was not fixed; instead, it varied according to Mu Rufeng's Spirit attribute.
With this idea in mind, Mu Rufeng started to prepare immediately.
In an instant, ten huge Poison Gas Bombs appeared before him.
Mu Rufeng didn't release them right away, but continued to pour Mana into them, causing the bombs to grow larger and larger.
As time went by, the originally green Poison Gas Bombs transformed into purple, growing to tens of meters in size.
"Hmm, this should be enough," Mu Rufeng nodded, and after flying up into the air, he traveled roughly a kilometer before reaching a spot above the lake's surface.
Following Mu Rufeng were ten giant Poison Gas Bombs.
However, before Mu Rufeng could release them, he saw the water's surface break below, as a giant crocodile measuring over twenty meters lunged upwards, mouth gaping wide as it snapped at Mu Rufeng.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng smiled faintly and with a light wave, ten Poison Gas Bombs shot out in a fan shape centered on him.
Yet, one of the Poison Gas Bombs went straight down towards the giant crocodile's mouth.
It so happened to land directly on the giant crocodile's gaping jaws.
In front of the Poison Gas Bomb, the giant crocodile lasted less than a second before its body was corroded.
Without uttering a sound, the giant crocodile was poisoned to nothing but a darkened skeleton that fell back into the lake.
[Congratulations player for killing LV24 Black Water Giant Crocodile (Elite), experience points +4800, points +48, gained an additional 4800 experience points for killing a higher-level monster]
"Boom boom boom!!"
At the same time, ten Poison Gas Bombs exploded.
Mists of water shot skyward.
"Splash splash!!"
In the sky, there suddenly fell a rain.
But this rain was a bit dark and purplish.
As it landed upon the shore, the earth hissed.
Yet before it could approach Mu Rufeng, it was evaporated by the heat from his Flame Armor.
[Congratulations player for killing LV24 Black Water Giant Crocodile (Elite), experience points +4800, points +48, gained an additional 4800 experience points for killing a higher-level monster]
…
[Congratulations player for killing LV25 Black Water Weed Monster (Elite), experience points +5000, points +50, gained an additional 5000 experience points for killing a higher-level monster]
It seemed that the monsters near the Poison Gas Bombs were instantly killed by the explosions.
[Your experience points have maxed out, level up to LV14, gained 2 free attribute points and 2 skill points to distribute]
Mu Rufeng immediately allocated the attribute points to Spirit and continued to enhance his Flame Armor with the skill points.
Below, the originally black lake water began to show hints of purple.
Moreover, the purple was spreading rapidly, moving quickly in all directions from the site of the Poison Gas Bombs' explosions.
Continuously, monsters' corpses floated to the surface, surrounded by dropped items that soon sunk back into the water.
Mu Rufeng's ears occasionally picked up prompts of killing monsters.
Although the poison spread fast, Black Water Lake was too large; to completely spread the toxin, who knows how long it would take.Chapter 373: Chapter 220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_6
Chapter 373 -220 Lord-level BOSS Black Water Jiao [Ten Thousand Words]_6
So, Mu Rufeng prepared to push himself, cheer on, and release a few more Poison Gas Bombs.
Right then, Mu Rufeng sped towards the depths of Black Water Lake.
For every distance he flew, Mu Rufeng released ten huge Poison Gas Bombs.
In just over twenty minutes, Mu Rufeng had scoured the whole Black Water Lake.
One could say that the entire Black Water Lake now appeared a purplish-black color. Black Water Lake could even be renamed Purple Water Lake.

[Your experience is full. Level has been raised to LV18. You have earned 2 free attribute points and 2 skill points to distribute freely.]
"LV18 now, leveling up is indeed hard," Mu Rufeng nodded in satisfaction.
If it weren't for the cheat he had enabled, it would take at least a week for others to reach level 18.
Considering the time, it had been just over two hours in total since he left the safe area.
The most important thing was, from level 15, the experience required for leveling didn't double but remained constant, and it would only increase after reaching level 20.
Listening to the continuous kill notification sounds beside his ear, what caught Mu Rufeng's attention was that he still hadn't encountered a single Commander Level monster.
"Roar~~!"
Just then, a terrifying roar echoed from the bottom of the lake.
Immediately, the central waters of Black Water Lake began to ripple.
In mere seconds, a whirlpool hundreds of meters in diameter formed.
"Whirl~~!"
A massive figure leapt out from the vortex, shooting straight into the sky.
"This…this is…a Jiao Long?" Mu Rufeng stared at the hundred-meter-long black Jiao Long in the distance, somewhat stunned.
A Jiao Long, indeed, a black Jiao Long! It was Mu Rufeng's first time seeing such a mythical creature.
[Black Water Jiao (Lord-level)]: The overseer of Black Water Lake, an incredibly powerful black Jiao Long.

Special Attributes: Possesses a sturdy body and frightening regenerative ability; capable of flight…
Skill…
"Lord-level Black Water Jiao!!!" Mu Rufeng's eyes shone brightly.
"Whirl~~!"
Once more, four figures leaped out from the vortex, each hovering above the surface of the water.
[Black Water Grass Commander (Commander Level)]: The leader of the Black Water Grass Clan with an extremely flexible yet tenacious body and a powerful digestive ability.
Level: 30
…
[Black Water Giant Crocodile Commander (Commander Level)]: The leader of the Black Water Crocodile Clan, possessing tremendous strength and a hard shell, as well as an unparalleled biting force.

…
[Black Water Python Commander (Commander Level)]: The leader of the Black Water Python Clan, with extremely tough scales and a flexible body; possesses immense constricting power.
Level: 30
…
Unlike the Black Water Jiao, these four Commander Level monsters were all emanating purple light, losing life every second, although not by much.
This also proved that the four Commander Level monsters had been poisoned.
Only the Black Water Jiao, the mightiest of them all, was directly immune to the toxin.
"One Lord-level monster, four Commander Level monsters, haha, this is going to be a fortune," Mu Rufeng's heart couldn't help but beat faster with excitement.
"Roar!" The Black Water Jiao swooped in mid-air and roared at Mu Rufeng.
Then, those four Commanders rushed towards Mu Rufeng one after another.
"Just in time, let's try my new Level 15 skill."
Mu Rufeng, fearless, was instead filled with anticipation.
Suddenly, he raised his right hand and pointed the Magic Wand at the four monsters.
A basin-sized red Fireball appeared, followed by four basin-thick Scorching Beams shooting out.
These four Scorching Beams instantly pierced through the heads of the four Commanders.
A whiff of roast meat and charring scent drifted through the air.
"Boom boom boom~~!"
As they pierced through, the bodies of the four Commanders also exploded in a series of blasts.

"Level 19 now, I wonder if taking down this Lord Black Water Jiao will get me to level 20?" Mu Rufeng's gaze settled on the Black Water Jiao.
Apparently having seen Mu Rufeng slaughter its four subordinates, it was extremely enraged, opening its huge mouth and firing a black Death Beam directly at Mu Rufeng.
Mu Rufeng reacted quickly, almost at the moment the opponent opened its mouth, his Scorching Beam had already blasted forth.
Glowing green and poisonous, the Scorching Beam collided with the black Death Beam in mid-air.
No shockwave, no thunderous noise.
One could only see Mu Rufeng's Scorching Beam almost crushingly penetrate the Death Beam and then directly enter the gaping maw of the Black Water JiaoChapter 374: Chapter 221: Opening the Leaderboard, The Secret of the Giant Copper[10,000 Words]
Chapter 374 -221: Opening the Leaderboard, The Secret of the Giant Copper[10,000 Words]
"Boom~~!"
A series of explosions resounded once more.
The body of the Black Water Jiao immediately burst into pieces, then plummeted into the depths of the water.
[Congratulations to the player for killing level 30 Black Water Jiao (Lord-level), experience gained +500000, points +240, extra experience gained for killing above your level +500000, extra experience gained for killing a Lord-level monster +500000]

"Good grief, two million experience for one monster, that's just insane." Mu Rufeng smiled as he saw he had reached level 20.
"Announce it, announce everything!"
Then, ignoring the multiple alert tones in his ear, Mu Rufeng dove directly into Black Water Lake.
There was no other choice; all the valuable loot from the five monsters had fallen into the lake.
Mu Rufeng, wanting to collect them, naturally had to go into the water.
Luckily, Mu Rufeng's Flame Armor was completely immune to the lake water and toxins.
In no time, Mu Rufeng had collected the items dropped by the five monsters into his item slot and burst out of the water.
…
In a certain wild area.
"We got Purple Equipment, we got Purple Equipment!" Qu Lianhong exclaimed at the sight of the splash of purple on the ground.
"Lucky, we actually got Purple Equipment." Cheng Youlin, gasping for breath beside him, was also surprised.
Zhou Wen stepped forward to pick up the purple equipment, his face also showing delight, "It's the Corpse Ghost Magic Wand, a level 10 Purple Equipment."
"I'm a Mage, I'll use this equipment first." Zhou Wen said, looking at the others.
Everyone present raised both hands in approval, with no one objecting.
[Congratulations to the player 'Salted Fish Zombie King' for being the first to kill a level 30 Commander-level monster, hereby making a server-wide announcement!]

…
[The first player to reach level 20 achievement unlocked, points leaderboard activated, level leaderboard activated, equipment leaderboard activated]
A series of announcements left Zhou Wen and the others dumbfounded.
Upon coming to their senses, they all exclaimed.
"Holy shit, is this for real?"
"Damn, what's going on? Not only did we kill a level 30 Commander monster, but we also took down a level 30 Lord-level monster?"
"Hey hey hey, level 20, this guy reached level 20, how long has it been since the announcement he reached level 10?"
"We're all exhausted, only Captain Zhou has the highest level, how come others are all freaking level 20 now."
"This is just unbelievable, how did he level up? How did he take down a level 30 Lord monster?"
The crowd discussed animatedly, faces filled with astonishment.
"This… this…" Zhou Wen didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Wait, it seems the last announcement said three leaderboards were opened, right? Let me check." Cheng Youlin immediately opened the level leaderboard.
What appeared before them was a series of level rankings.
[Level Leaderboard]:
1, Level 20, ID Salted Fish Zombie King (Mage)
2, Level 9, Wayde Morgan (Warrior)
3, Level 8, ID Murong Qifeng (Mage)
4, Level 8, Chu Feng (Magician)
5, Level 8, ID The Milk-White Snow Child (Warrior)
6, Level 8, Jack Chopin (Mage)
7, Level 8, Kiyota Eijirou (Magician)
8, Level 7, ID Ruan Ruansoft (Magician)
9, Level 7, Li Zaihu (Warrior)
10, Level 7, Zhou Liulong (Warrior)
11, Level 7, ID Little Cutie (Warrior)
…
20, Level 7, Zhou Wen (Mage)
…
The leaderboard displayed the top one hundred, but the gap was clearly evident.
First place at level 20, directly more than twice the gap to the second place.
The gaps afterward weren't too big.
"Ah? Captain Zhou is only twentieth?" a Contractor exclaimed.
"Really, huh, Salted Fish Zombie King being first makes sense, but why is the second place a foreigner? Hey, seems there are also Japanese and Korean people."
"Indeed, out of the hundred thousand people, they are level 3 Contractors from all over the world."
"Let's be honest, this Salted Fish Zombie King is really powerful, level 20 is blindingly amazing."
People chattered looking at the level leaderboard.
"It's pretty good to be in the top twenty out of a hundred thousand people," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
Being in the top twenty was also thanks to the other Contractors unanimously deciding to weaken the monsters to the brink and let Zhou Wen deliver the last blow.
Initially, Zhou Wen was reluctant, wanting everyone to level up together.ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
But after a discussion with everyone, they finally decided to let Captain Zhou level up first.
Because having a high level in the early phase didn't provide much advantage, only after reaching level 10 with an extra skill was there a significant improvement.
Of course, Equipment was also incredibly important.
Once one person's level was high, he could lead others in hunting monsters to level up, this way, leveling up would actually be faster than if everyone leveled up together.
"Holy shit, you guys, check out the equipment leaderboard!" Cheng Youlin suddenly exclaimed.
The group hurried to check the equipment leaderboard.

A series of explosions resounded once more.
The body of the Black Water Jiao immediately burst into pieces, then plummeted into the depths of the water.

"Good grief, two million experience for one monster, that's just insane." Mu Rufeng smiled as he saw he had reached level 20.
"Announce it, announce everything!"
Then, ignoring the multiple alert tones in his ear, Mu Rufeng dove directly into Black Water Lake.
There was no other choice; all the valuable loot from the five monsters had fallen into the lake.
Mu Rufeng, wanting to collect them, naturally had to go into the water.
Luckily, Mu Rufeng's Flame Armor was completely immune to the lake water and toxins.
In no time, Mu Rufeng had collected the items dropped by the five monsters into his item slot and burst out of the water.
…
In a certain wild area.
"We got Purple Equipment, we got Purple Equipment!" Qu Lianhong exclaimed at the sight of the splash of purple on the ground.
"Lucky, we actually got Purple Equipment." Cheng Youlin, gasping for breath beside him, was also surprised.
Zhou Wen stepped forward to pick up the purple equipment, his face also showing delight, "It's the Corpse Ghost Magic Wand, a level 10 Purple Equipment."
"I'm a Mage, I'll use this equipment first." Zhou Wen said, looking at the others.
Everyone present raised both hands in approval, with no one objecting.
[Congratulations to the player 'Salted Fish Zombie King' for being the first to kill a level 30 Commander-level monster, hereby making a server-wide announcement!]
…
[Congratulations to the player 'Salted Fish Zombie King' for being the first to kill the Lord-level monster, the level 30 Black Water Jiao, hereby making a server-wide announcement!]
…
[Congratulations to the player 'Salted Fish Zombie King' for being the first to reach level 20, hereby making a server-wide announcement!]
…
[The first player to reach level 20 achievement unlocked, points leaderboard activated, level leaderboard activated, equipment leaderboard activated]
A series of announcements left Zhou Wen and the others dumbfounded.
Upon coming to their senses, they all exclaimed.
"Holy shit, is this for real?"
"Damn, what's going on? Not only did we kill a level 30 Commander monster, but we also took down a level 30 Lord-level monster?"
"Hey hey hey, level 20, this guy reached level 20, how long has it been since the announcement he reached level 10?"
"We're all exhausted, only Captain Zhou has the highest level, how come others are all freaking level 20 now."
"This is just unbelievable, how did he level up? How did he take down a level 30 Lord monster?"
The crowd discussed animatedly, faces filled with astonishment.
"This… this…" Zhou Wen didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Wait, it seems the last announcement said three leaderboards were opened, right? Let me check." Cheng Youlin immediately opened the level leaderboard.
What appeared before them was a series of level rankings.
[Level Leaderboard]:
1, Level 20, ID Salted Fish Zombie King (Mage)
2, Level 9, Wayde Morgan (Warrior)
3, Level 8, ID Murong Qifeng (Mage)
4, Level 8, Chu Feng (Magician)
5, Level 8, ID The Milk-White Snow Child (Warrior)
6, Level 8, Jack Chopin (Mage)
7, Level 8, Kiyota Eijirou (Magician)
8, Level 7, ID Ruan Ruansoft (Magician)
9, Level 7, Li Zaihu (Warrior)
10, Level 7, Zhou Liulong (Warrior)
11, Level 7, ID Little Cutie (Warrior)
…
20, Level 7, Zhou Wen (Mage)
…
The leaderboard displayed the top one hundred, but the gap was clearly evident.
First place at level 20, directly more than twice the gap to the second place.
The gaps afterward weren't too big.
"Ah? Captain Zhou is only twentieth?" a Contractor exclaimed.
"Really, huh, Salted Fish Zombie King being first makes sense, but why is the second place a foreigner? Hey, seems there are also Japanese and Korean people."
"Indeed, out of the hundred thousand people, they are level 3 Contractors from all over the world."
"Let's be honest, this Salted Fish Zombie King is really powerful, level 20 is blindingly amazing."
People chattered looking at the level leaderboard.
"It's pretty good to be in the top twenty out of a hundred thousand people," Zhou Wen said with a smile.
Being in the top twenty was also thanks to the other Contractors unanimously deciding to weaken the monsters to the brink and let Zhou Wen deliver the last blow.
Initially, Zhou Wen was reluctant, wanting everyone to level up together.
But after a discussion with everyone, they finally decided to let Captain Zhou level up first.
Because having a high level in the early phase didn't provide much advantage, only after reaching level 10 with an extra skill was there a significant improvement.
Of course, Equipment was also incredibly important.
Once one person's level was high, he could lead others in hunting monsters to level up, this way, leveling up would actually be faster than if everyone leveled up together.
"Holy shit, you guys, check out the equipment leaderboard!" Cheng Youlin suddenly exclaimed.
The group hurried to check the equipment leaderboard.
[Equipment Leaderboard]

100, [Poison Stinger] LV15 (Purple) Owner: Salted Fish Zombie King
The top hundred, all freaking owned by the Salted Fish Zombie King.
Zhou Wen looked at the Level 10 Purple Equipment magic wand in his hand, his mouth twitching slightly before he stashed it into his item slot.
The equipment for the hundredth rank was also Level 15; his Level 10 Purple Equipment really wasn't up to par.
"Damn, no way."
"This… It's got to be fake, right? It's way too fake."
"One… one hundred, and all the equipment on the leaderboard is owned by the Salted Fish Zombie King???"
"If Level 10 Purple Equipment's stats are already this good, what kind of stats do the Level 30 Golden Legend have?"
"Holy cow, if I had that, I'd be soaring."
"Seriously, do I even feel like we're playing the same game? The drop rate for the Salted Fish Zombie King is ridiculously high."
The Contractors immediately broke into a heated discussion, unable to believe their eyes.
"This instance turned into a game instance, and when playing games, the drop rates typically increase for the first kills. Could that be the reason?" Cheng Youlin said.
"Makes sense," Qu Lianhong nodded in agreement.
"Wish I knew which region this big shot is from; it'd be great to cling to his coattails."
"Yeah, just getting a few hand-me-down pieces of equipment would let us take off."
From their initial amazement, the conversation quickly shifted to whether clinging onto this big shot could let them rise to the top.
"Are you rested enough? If this big shot is putting in so much effort, then we can't fall behind. Let's quickly level up to Level 10 so we can boost everyone else up too," Zhou Wen stood up and said.
"Yes, level up, level up, level up."
Everyone responded repeatedly, their spirits high.
Primarily, the name Salted Fish Zombie King clearly sounded like a Huaxia online alias, which made some domestic Contractors quite proud.
As for the score leaderboard, it inadvertently got ignored by everyone.
Because, till now, they still had no idea what the scores were for.
…
Somewhere in the wilderness.
Wayde Morgan looked at the level leaderboard, his face grim.
Then he opened the equipment leaderboard, and looking at the Level 15 purple blade in his hand, his expression darkened even more.
Second on the level leaderboard, he was well aware, but regarding the equipment leaderboard, he felt confident he should be in the top twenty at least, no?
Upon checking, well, not even in the top hundred and, to add insult to injury, every piece of equipment also belonged to the same person.
How could Master Wayde not itch with irritation?
Watching his own Contractors exclaiming in surprise from time to time only fueled Wayde's anger.
"Get up, continue to bring me monsters for leveling up," Wayde said coldly.
"Ah? Master Wayde, we haven't even rested for two minutes," a Contractor said.
"Just do what you're told, why all the fuss?" one of his subordinates immediately scolded.
Helplessly, everyone got up and continued to capture monsters.
…
In a certain wilderness area.
Zhou Liulong appeared alone at the entrance of a cave.
The cave entrance was very small, just enough for a child to pass through.
"Hiss Hiss Hiss~~!"
A soft sound came from inside, and then, a python emerged from the entrance.
Zhou Liulong stood at the entrance, and upon seeing the python's head emerge, he immediately swung his sharp blade, slashing it off effortlessly.
[Congratulations Player for killing a Level 10 Green Skin Python, Experience +400, Score +10, Extra 400 experience points for killing a monster above your level]
"Nice, food drop again." Zhou Liulong quickly picked up the fallen food and stored it in his item slot.
Then, he watched as the headless corpse of the python quickly retracted back into the cave.
Zhou Liulong also quickly threw the python's head back into the cave.
Soon, rustling sounds emerged, and another python emerged from the cave, giving Zhou Liulong no time to rest as he slashed down again.
The python's head was chopped off again, and like before, he threw the head back into the cave.
"Xiaoguai, your turn, I need to replenish my strength," Zhou Liulong suddenly called out to someone behind him.
"Coming, coming," a petite girl came running from not far.
She was carrying a mace on her shoulder that was bigger than her, jogging towards him.
"Brother Long, you rest, let me handle it," Xiaoguai immediately took Zhou Liulong's place.
As soon as another python emerged, she swung the mace, smashing the python's head into pieces.
[Congratulations Player for killing a Level 10 Green Skin Python, Experience +400, Score +10, Extra 400 experience points for killing a monster above your level]
Zhou Liulong didn't leave but stood on the other side of the entrance to ensure Xiaoguai wouldn't have any problems and prevent the python from escaping.
After all, resting here wasn't much different from resting anywhere else.
"Brother Long, you're reliable, finding such a great spot to farm," Xiaoguai said with a cheerful smile.
"Luck, mostly, but once we hit Level 10, we must move on," Zhou Liulong said.
"Such a great spot, leaving at Level 10 is too wasteful; better to move after reaching Level 11," Xiaoguai suggested.
With Level 10, there'd be no more experience for killing above your level, but a spot as good as this naturally shouldn't be abandoned.
"Okay," Zhou Liulong nodded.

Chapter 376 -221 Start the Rankings, The Secret of Giant Copper [10,000 Words]_3
Suddenly, a series of announcements popped up in their minds simultaneously.
It seemed that Xiao Guai was so startled by the announcements that a python's head popped out without attacking immediately.
Luckily, Zhou Liulong reacted quickly and chopped off its head.
Otherwise, if the python had gotten away, it would have taken a lot of effort to kill it.
"Xiao Guai, stay focused on the monster," Zhou Liulong reminded.
"Ah… okay, Brother Long, my bad." Xiao Guai stuck out her tongue and then braced herself diligently.
However, she still split her attention to check the rankings.
"Ah, Brother Long, look, we are only ranked tenth and eleventh. Wow, that Salted Fish Zombie King is already level 20, he's too strong."
Xiao Guai exclaimed.
"It's a bit unexpected. I thought we would be in the top five. I didn't realize there were so many strong players," Zhou Liulong was also a bit surprised.
You see, they found this place when they were at level 3.
They weren't weak at the start, so they could kill level 10 monsters.
Using this narrow cave entrance to farm monsters, they had hardly stopped at all.
Thus, Zhou Liulong felt their levels should have been in the frontline, but it turned out they were only in the second tier.
"Boom!" sounded.
Xiao Guai smashed another python to death and picked up the dropped soul banknotes.
"This…" Suddenly, Zhou Liulong's voice carried a hint of shock.
"What's wrong?" Xiao Guai asked.
"You, you take a look at the equipment rankings," Zhou Liulong said in astonishment.
"I'll check." Xiao Guai immediately opened the equipment leaderboard.
Then, Xiao Guai was completely dumbfounded.
"Swish!" Zhou Liulong chopped off another python's head and then reminded Xiao Guai again.
Xiao Guai didn't respond, but instead cried out, "Oh my God, Brother Long, Brother Long, the top hundred equipment all belong to the Salted Fish Zombie King."
"Golden Legend, the first few are all Golden Legend."
"Ah, it really depresses you when you compare yourself to others. Alright, back to hunting monsters," Zhou Liulong sighed.
"This Salted Fish Zombie King is really incredible. I wish I could team up with him," Xiao Guai said eagerly, swinging her mace and dealing a death blow to another python.
Zhou Liulong didn't say anything, but he felt somewhat unsettled inside.
Salted Fish Zombie King, this name, he felt familiar, as it was Mu Rufeng's WeChat username.
"Is it Mu Rufeng? Or just a coincidence?" Zhou Liulong pondered in his mind.
"Wow, Brother Long, look at the equipment leaderboard, it was just updated, my goodness, an Epic Equipment appeared, and two more Golden Legendary Equipment showed up," Xiao Guai exclaimed suddenly.
"Huh? Let me see," Zhou Liulong refreshed the leaderboard, and indeed, the first place had changed to an Epic Level Equipment.
And at the top of the leaderboard, two more Golden Legendary Equipment appeared.
And as for the owner, it was naturally the Salted Fish Zombie King.
…
A fiery red light lit up from the bottom of the lake, and then Mu Rufeng surfaced.
Seeing the golden equipment in his item slot, his face lit up with a smile.
The attributes were very strong, but unfortunately, they required level 30 to wear, and Mu Rufeng was only level 20 for now.
Still, Mu Rufeng exchanged all his current equipment for a full set of level 20 red equipment.
As for his weapon, he didn't change it; it was still the level 10 Corpse Poison Magic Wand.
Just then, another whirlpool slowly formed.
At the bottom of the whirlpool, a purple light flickered, and soon, a treasure chest emitting purple light floated on the surface of the water.
"A treasure chest? There's a chest to claim after killing monsters?"
But, in the next moment, Mu Rufeng was a bit flabbergasted.
The chest suddenly sprouted two big eyes and four limbs.
It glanced at Mu Rufeng and then took off running across the surface of the water.
That speed definitely reached eighty miles per hour.
[Purple Treasure Chest Monster]: A purple-quality Treasure Chest Monster that appears after killing the Black Water Jiao Lord, runs very fast, and will drop good stuff if killed.
Level: 30
Attack: 0
Life Value: 100,000
Special Attributes: Runs incredibly fast.
"Purple Treasure Chest Monster? Well, that's very good," Mu Rufeng's face immediately broke into a grin.
If it were a regular chest, maybe nothing good would come out because it wouldn't be subject to his Thousand Times Drop Rate.
But Treasure Box Monsters are different; they are like monsters that, once killed, naturally fall under his ancestor's drop rate.
"Runs fast? Hehe, can it be faster than flying?" Mu Rufeng instantly ejected a large amount of compressed flame from his back.
A massive sense of propulsion came over him, and in no time, Mu Rufeng had caught up to the fleeing Treasure Box Monster.
[Purple Treasure Box Monster]:…
Level: 30
Attack: 0
Life Value: 77,500
Special Attributes: Runs incredibly fast.
Status: Poisoned
Mu Rufeng suddenly noticed that green numbers of 500 were floating above the Treasure Box Monster's head every second.
Clearly, the Treasure Box Monster was poisoned.
Considering this rate, perhaps Mu Rufeng wouldn't need to take action himself; it felt like the Treasure Box Monster might just die from poisoning by itself.
The Treasure Box Monster seemed to notice Mu Rufeng above it and became a bit frantic, speeding up by another notch.
Right then, a Scorching Beam hit the Treasure Box Monster directly.
Instantly, five items fell out, including a large amount of soul banknotes and both Blood Medicine and Blue Potion.
Two items radiated golden light, one emitted an orange glow, and the remaining two were a Token and a bottle of purple potion.Chapter 377: Chapter 221 Start the Rankings, The Secret of Giant Copper [10,000 Words]_4
Chapter 377 -221 Start the Rankings, The Secret of Giant Copper [10,000 Words]_4
Mu Rufeng immediately swooped over and collected all the dropped items.
Blood Medicine and Blue Potion were a given; he had dropped quite a few before, and they were used to replenish Life Value and Mana.
There were also plenty of soul banknotes—a whole million.
The purple potion was an Experience Potion.
[Experience Potion]: Drinking this can increase one million experience points.
[Water Avoiding Ring]: A ring with magical powers.

Profession Restriction: None

Level Restriction: 20
Profession Restriction: None
Equipment Position: Ring

Special Attributes: All Attributes +200, While wearing this equipment, restrictions can be broken; equipment up to ten levels above the wearer's own level can be equipped.
"Holy shit!" When Mu Rufeng finished reading the equipment's properties, he was immediately shocked.
He never expected such equipment to exist.
Without any hesitation, Mu Rufeng immediately donned the Unlimited Divine Equipment.
At the same time, thanks to the properties of that equipment, Mu Rufeng was able to wear Level 30 equipment at Level 20.
He immediately switched his weapon to the Level 30 Golden Legend Dragon Tooth Wand.
Following that, he changed all his other equipment; the worst piece on him was now of orange quality.
Mu Rufeng felt his strength surge tremendously, and then he opened his virtual attribute panel.
[Name]: Salted Fish Zombie King
[Age]: 24
[Profession]: Mage
[Level]: LV20 (200400/3276800)
[Strength]: 14650.4 (Related to the physical damage dealt)
[Spirit]: 14440.1 (Related to one's Mana bar and Magic damage)
[Constitution]: 14440.1 (Related to one's Life bar and defense)
Life Force: 999999+
Mana: 999999+
Attack Power: 999999+
Defensive Power: 999999+
[Attribute Points]: 0
[Score]: 25123
Compared to before, his attributes had more than doubled.
And it wasn't just a simple doubling of strength, it was an exponential increase.
The enhancements given by these Level 30 high-quality equipment were just too absurd.
At this point, Mu Rufeng also noticed the leaderboards and immediately opened the Level Rankings to take a look.
"The second place is also Level 9 now, leveling up quite fast, huh?" Mu Rufeng was a bit surprised.
He then checked the Equipment Rankings and was startled by the name [Salted Fish Zombie King] soaring up the list.
Then, a faint smile appeared on his face.
It made sense, his Thousand Times Drop Rate and monster-killing speed were ridiculously high.
Lastly, Mu Rufeng opened the Score Rankings.
He was in first place with twenty-five thousand points.
Wayde Morgan in second place had only around three thousand eight hundred points, the gap was not a small one.
After closing the leaderboards, Mu Rufeng took out the last item from the Treasure Box Monster, a token.
[Dragon Palace (Game Dungeon)]: Possessing this token allows one to go to the bottom of Black Water Lake and enter the Dragon Palace dungeon.
Note: The average level in the Dragon Palace dungeon is Level 40, players are advised to take note and preferably form a team before attempting.
"Huh? A game dungeon?" Mu Rufeng's eyes lit up.
For Mu Rufeng, this dungeon was a great place to level up.
Suddenly, Mu Rufeng remembered something and hurriedly opened his virtual panel to start scrolling through the notifications.
He quickly found what he was looking for.
[Congratulations to player Salted Fish Zombie King for successfully killing the regional boss, Black Water Jiao. Simply clear out the remaining monsters in Zone 008 and you can complete the clearance task.]
"So, this is Zone 008, and now that I've taken out the biggest boss in the area, all I have to do is eliminate all the monsters in the area to complete the clearance task and return?"
Mu Rufeng thought he had misheard among the many notifications earlier, but now it seemed to be the case.
"It's really kind of boring, is this really it for the dungeon?" Mu Rufeng felt the immense power within him and was somewhat reluctant to finish.
Then, scrolling further up, Mu Rufeng saw another notification.
[Congratulations to player Salted Fish Zombie King for reaching LV20. You can return to the Safe Zone to find Wayde for a secondary job transfer.]
"Well, let's take it one step at a time. Let's head back to the Safe Zone and talk about the secondary job transfer," shrugged Mu Rufeng. If he really had to return, then that was all he could do.
Still, whatever the case, he had thoroughly enjoyed this dungeon experience.
…
Safe Zone 008.
At this moment, the Safe Zone was quite lively.
People were coming and going, and some Contractors even set up stalls, selling equipment, food, and even items.
"Brothers, come take a look! Freshly baked bread and mineral water for ten soul coins only, just ten soul coins, take them all home."
"Magic Wands, wood swords, and knives, all top-notch equipment. Does anyone want to take a look? Trading for items only, no soul banknotes accepted."

…
The monsters in the wilderness were many, and some groups, exhausted of physical strength and mana, would return to the safe zone to recuperate.
So, within just a few short hours, a small trading market had formed.
Not all areas could gather dozens of people in one go.
Most groups consisted of three to five people, and those who ventured alone were not few in number.
Of course, those alone, aware of the dangers, would naturally still seek to form teams.freeweɓnøvel~com
On an open space, several people were sitting in groups of two or three, eating bread and drinking water, resting.
"Ah, every time I look at this equipment ranking, I'm shocked," sighed a Contractor.
"Exactly, looking at those Epic Equipments on the list and then at this Green Equipment in my hand, I feel like I've hit rock bottom."
"At least you have Green Equipment, look, I only have White Equipment."
"Ah, the more we talk about it, the more tears we shed."
"Speaking of which, how on earth does that sluggard manage to own so much equipment?"
"Right? Could it be that he's got some super powerful item or ability, which is why he's so abnormal?"
"I think he must be using a cheat; otherwise, how could he be so formidable?"
"Although this is a transformed game instance, this is genuinely an Abnormality instance, where can one get a cheat?"
"I really hope to encounter the boss so I might butter him up and possibly get some dropped equipment." A plump young man spoke with a look of longing.
"Go on, get out of here, you! Don't embarrass our team, alright?" A warrior girl said disdainfully.
"Haha~~!"
At her words, everyone burst into laughter.
"Eh? Look, what's that?" Suddenly, a Contractor pointed outside the safe zone.
Everyone turned to look.
A fiery red light was seen speeding from the depths of the mist.
Everyone thought it was a monster approaching, and they all stood up, staring intently at the reddish figure.
However, they weren't particularly concerned, after all, this was the safe zone.
Even the strongest BOSS of the area could not enter.
But in the next second, everyone was dumbfounded.
Because the reddish figure effortlessly entered the safe zone and then arrived above them.
"Holy shit, a monster's entered the safe zone!" exclaimed a Contractor.
Instantly, all the Contractors within the safe zone were thrown into disarray.
"A monster? Where's the monster?"
The firelight gradually dissipated, revealing Mu Rufeng's figure enveloped in armor.
"Ah, the monster can talk," the same Contractor cried out once more.
Mu Rufeng looked at the chubby guy below and couldn't help but shake his head; the 'monster' he was referring to was Mu Rufeng himself.
"I'm not a monster," said Mu Rufeng as he slowly descended from the sky.
Mu Rufeng didn't withdraw his Flame Armor—perhaps just to conceal his appearance a bit—he simply toned down the flames, dimming their glow.
"Hmm? A Contractor, you really scared me."
Seeing that Mu Rufeng was a Contractor, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Just as expected, how could a monster enter the safe zone?
"Could everyone please make some room?" Mu Rufeng spoke to the crowd.
"For sure, for sure, but what's up with that fiery armor outside? Is it equipment? It looks so cool," said the chubby man.
"Yeah, handsome guy, you can actually fly, too," the warrior girl also chimed in.
"You just said it, Flame Armor, right, it's a Level 10 skill for a Fire Mage," Mu Rufeng replied.
"Really? Flame Armor is this awesome? I need to level up fast," exclaimed the chubby man, eyes glittering with excitement.
Soon, the group of Contractors had made room.
Without waiting for any questions, Mu Rufeng cast a Fireball Technique onto the ground.
A "Boom!" resounded as a huge pit appeared.
The terrifying force startled all the Contractors present.
Especially the Mages who had awakened Fireball Technique—whose own fireballs likely didn't even have a tenth of this fireball's power.
Mu Rufeng had already weakened it significantly; otherwise, at full power, if he wasn't in the safe zone, these Contractors might have been killed by the shockwave alone.
There were quite a few people in the safe zone, over twenty, and now they all crowded around.
There was no helping it, Mu Rufeng in his current state was just too eye-catching.
"Holy shit, what are you doing, you scared me," the chubby man said, startled.
"I'm looking for Wu Fa for something, but I don't know how to summon him, so this is the only way," Mu Rufeng explained.
At that moment, the ground began to tremble, then swiftly cracked open as Wu Fa rose slowly from the depths.
"Who dares to disturb my slumber?" Wu Fa's eyes opened, sweeping around in extreme anger.
However, when his gaze landed on Mu Rufeng, it paused slightly.
"Player, what do you need from me to have awakened me?" Wu Fa asked, his tone suddenly much more pleasant.
"I've reached Level 20 and need to undergo a class change," Mu Rufeng stated.
Wu Fa fell silent upon hearing this, then after a long pause, said, "I did not expect someone to reach Level 20 so soon. Proceed to the depths of the mist, and slay twenty monsters of Level 20 or above to complete the quest."
"Or slay two Level 20 Elite Monsters, or a single Level 15 Commander Level monster."
"Commander Level monster? Would this count?" Mu Rufeng was taken aback at these words, and then pulled out the head of the Black Water Jiao, tossing it onto the ground.Chapter 379: Chapter 221 Opening the Leaderboard, The Secret of Giant Copper[Ten Thousand Words]_6
Chapter 379 -221 Opening the Leaderboard, The Secret of Giant Copper[Ten Thousand Words]_6
"Is this… Is this the Lord-level Monster, Black Water Jiao, from our area? You… You killed the Lord-level Black Water Jiao?"
At this moment, the voice of the speaker trembled.
Mu Rufeng found the Jiao Long so fascinating at the time that he stored its head in the item slot, never realizing how useful it would turn out to be.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" The chubby one nearby exclaimed three times in a row, surprising everyone.
"Damn it, damn it, damn it!"
Soon, a continuous stream of exclamations erupted from everyone's mouths.
Only then did they realize that the person in the flame armor in front of them was the LV20 super boss, Salted Fish Zombie King.
"Yes, I killed it," Mu Rufeng said.
"That's fantastic, really fantastic, Mr. Zombie King, you don't mind me calling you that, do you?" The speaker suddenly became excited.
"Of course I don't mind, and by the way, can I change my job now?" Mu Rufeng added.
"Absolutely, I will change your job right now." As the words fell, the speaker pointed towards Mu Rufeng.
[Congratulations player, you completed the task of the giant, successfully completed the second job change.]
[Congratulations player, the first to successfully change jobs to Second-Turn Mage, points +100, announce across the whole instance?]
"Announce."
[Congratulations player…]
Without waiting for a reaction, the giant grabbed the head of the Black Water Jiao and held it to his mouth.
"Crunch, crunch~~!"
One by one, the giant began devouring the head of the Black Water Jiao.
It didn't take long for him to swallow the entire head.
Soon, the giant's size began shrinking until he was as big as an ordinary person.
"Mr. Zombie King, as long as you clear out all the monsters in each area, you can complete the final task."
"Since you've killed the Lord-level Black Water Jiao, I can use my own power to wipe out the remaining monsters," the giant said.
"Ha ha, that's great, truly, staying in the safe zone from the start was so smart, being carried by a boss feels amazing!" A slacker contractor burst out laughing.
Other contractors despised this slacker, but deep down, they were also quite pleased.
After all, they had safely made it through this instance.
"Is there… something you need?" Mu Rufeng asked the giant.
The giant had no need to discuss these details; he could just get on with it, so Mu Rufeng thought there must be something he wanted to talk about.
"Mr. Zombie King, would you be interested in going to other areas to kill Lord-level Monsters?" the giant inquired.
"Going to other areas? Can I do that?" Mu Rufeng, hearing this, instantly became intrigued.
He hadn't had enough fun yet, and now he had the opportunity to go to other areas to hunt monsters, an opportunity not to be missed.
"Naturally, I have the authority to allow this, and every area's statue has this authority."
"It's just that, I worry you might just decide to go back," the giant said.
"Ha ha, I definitely won't, and if you could let me go to other areas, that would really be a huge favor," Mu Rufeng laughed.
"No, no, no, it should be me thanking you. Your killing monsters also allows me to gather energy, and when you return, your Flame Marks will transfer to me."
"I'm not afraid to let you know now, there are a thousand statues across a thousand areas."
"When you return, it will be a battle among us thousand statues. We will defeat others and absorb and integrate their powers."
"The final ten victorious statues will be able to construct a brand-new city centered around the statues in the wilderness," the giant slowly said.
Hearing this, Mu Rufeng's pupils slightly constricted.
Even though he had suspected something, hearing the giant say this still startled him.
So, this statue was indeed the foundation for building a new city in the wilderness in the future, no wonder this instance was called Wilderness Pioneer.
You could say, they were the real pioneers.
At this, the contractors present were also greatly shocked; so this was the true purpose of this instance.
"What use are the points?" Mu Rufeng spoke up.
"Points can be used in the newly constructed city to gain priority in renting or purchasing real estate or even establishing corporate powers," the giant slowly said.
"What? You're saying points can be used to buy or create corporate powers in the newly constructed city?" Mu Rufeng was somewhat unsettled inside.
"Yes, and points are very valuable. Although they can't be traded to others, they are very worthy in terms of buying property," the giant said.
"So, in the newly established city, can we use points to buy property or create a corporate company?" Mu Rufeng asked.
"Yes, and you need not worry about the lack of residents after the city's creation. The Mysterious World has an abundance of oddities!" the giant said.
"Damn, I messed up if I had known I definitely wouldn't have slacked off."
"It's done for, can I still make it if I go kill monsters now?"
A few slackers nearby were endlessly regretful.
They were all third-level contractors, even if not from specific agencies, as long as they were registered, the state had informed them of some news beforehand.
The Mysterious World would gradually have a larger impact on the real world over time.
They didn't know the exact timing, but they knew that day would inevitably come.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Mr. Giant; I wish to go to other areas to kill monsters," Mu Rufeng slowly said.Chapter 380: Chapter 222 True Dragon Infested by Evil Insects [Requesting Monthly Pass]
Chapter 380 -222 True Dragon Infested by Evil Insects [Requesting Monthly Pass]
Big Copper spoke upon hearing this, "Then I'll eliminate all the monsters in our area."
"Hold on, I also got a token that allows entry into the Dragon Palace dungeon, will that affect anything?" Mu Rufeng suddenly said.
"What? It's a token for the Dragon Palace dungeon? You… you got it from killing a Treasure Box Monster?" Big Copper exclaimed in shock.
"Yes." Mu Rufeng nodded.
"That's amazing, your luck is too good, this is a one in ten thousand chance." Big Copper said somewhat excitedly.
"One in ten thousand," Mu Rufeng murmured.
A one in ten thousand chance, and then he had a thousand times drop rate, so the real drop rate was one in ten chance?
And his Luck Value was high, plus it was the first kill, so it dropped?
"Mr. Zombie King, the Dragon Palace dungeon is extremely important to me, but the monsters inside the dungeon are all level 40, even including King-level Monsters. With your current level, it might be a bit tough."
"How about you go to the other areas, kill monsters to level up to 30, then form a team to go there?" Big Copper suggested.
"No need, they are just level 40 monsters, easy for me to handle," Mu Rufeng waved his hand.
"Okay, then I'll start eliminating all the monsters in our area right now," Big Copper immediately said.
Just as Mu Rufeng was about to speak, a plump man quickly interjected, "Wait, Mr. Big Copper, please wait a moment."
"Boss, aren't we going to kill the monsters ourselves? We get points if we kill them ourselves, and if Mr. Big Copper does it, we won't be able to get any points."
"Mr. Big Copper also mentioned earlier that points are very important."
The nearby Contractors, hearing this, also chimed in agreement.
Points being so important as Big Copper said, they didn't want to miss out on the points available from those monsters.
"Right, and I was about to say, if you do the killing, wouldn't we lose out on the points?" Mu Rufeng said.
"Don't worry about that, after I kill all the monsters, the points will be distributed according to the proportion of monsters you have cleared."ƒгeewёbnovel.com
"Most importantly, when I kill the monsters, the points you get will be the maximum available, meaning there won't be any reduction in points because a higher level killed a lower level monster."
"Besides, you will also get experience points, which of course, will also be distributed based on the same proportion," Big Copper explained.
"That's great," the plump man immediately agreed.
Although they might not get the bulk of the points, they would definitely get a fair share.
As for the majority of points, needless to say, it would be Mu Rufeng who got them.
Several rogue Contractors nearby opened their mouths to speak but didn't dare to say anything.
The group exchanged glances filled with regret.
They had almost not gone out to fight monsters at all, still at level 1. Proportion? They feared they wouldn't get anything.
Immediately, these five dashed out towards the area outside the fog as if flying.
What were they doing? Naturally, it was to kill monsters.
Even if they only killed one monster, according to the proportion, they would definitely get some experience points and points, albeit very few, but still better than nothing.
Mu Rufeng saw the actions of those five and understood immediately. He didn't mind; after all, it wasn't his concern.
"Mr. Big Copper, I'll head to Black Water Lake and clear the Dragon Palace dungeon," Mu Rufeng greeted and then his body began to slowly levitate.
"Boss, boss, do you have any equipment you don't need? Pass a few to your little brother here, I would be hugely grateful."
Suddenly, at this moment, the plump man approached and shouted towards Mu Rufeng.
"Really? Your skin is thick enough," Mu Rufeng was somewhat dumbfounded.
He then waved his hand, scattering a large amount of Blue equipment, Purple Equipment, Red Equipment, and even Orange Equipment.
Instantly, the ground was covered with equipment, even piling up, the gleaming lights nearly blinding everyone present.
"Plump man, you distribute them, according to the need, make sure everyone gets a share," Mu Rufeng let out his words and then flew off into the distance.
"Okay, boss, thank you boss! I love you, boss! Boss, from now on, you're my dad!!!" The plump man was so excited that he became somewhat incoherent.
As Mu Rufeng just left the safe zone, hearing the plump man's words, he staggered a bit and then sped up, disappearing into the mist.
"What are you doing, what are you doing, don't touch them, the boss asked me to distribute, don't touch them, or Mr. Big Copper will have to intervene."
The plump man saw some of the Contractors rushing for the Red Equipment and the Orange Equipment and immediately shouted.
The Contractors who weren't part of any gang initially didn't care about the plump man, since it was a safe zone where they couldn't do anything to each other.
But hearing about Big Copper, they immediately stopped in their tracks.
Contractors couldn't do anything to other Contractors in the safe zone, but Big Copper might not have such limitations.
"You and you and you, hand over the equipment you just picked up nicely. I'll distribute it fairly so everybody gets some, but don't try to grab it on your own," the plump man pointed at three Contractors.
These three Contractors, each had taken a few pieces of Red Equipment, spotted by the sharp-eyed plump man.
The three looked at the plump man and hurriedly said, "Don't talk nonsense, we didn't take them, we're waiting for the boss to distribute."
The three pleaded shamelessly.Chapter 381: Chapter 222: The True Dragon Infested by Vile Insects [Seeking Monthly Pass]_2
Chapter 381 -222: The True Dragon Infested by Vile Insects [Seeking Monthly Pass]_2
There were simply too many pieces of equipment on the ground, sneaking a few wouldn't arouse suspicion, and even if someone did notice, just deny everything—that should suffice, right? What could they possibly do to him?
"Mr. Copper Giant," the fatty turned to the side to address Copper Giant.
Upon hearing this, Copper Giant said, "If Mr. Zombie King says the gear goes to Zhang Deyu to distribute, then it's up to him to distribute."
"All of you, bring out the equipment, and anyone else who has taken gear on the sly, do it now, or I won't hesitate to show you what I'm capable of."
"Did you hear that? Hurry up and bring it out. And like I said, there will be enough for everyone. Just look at all the equipment laid out here," said the fatty, clearly annoyed.
The group fell silent, seemingly intimidated by Copper Giant's words, and eventually, they brought out the equipment.
"That's more like it. Alright, I'll start distributing it now. Let's begin with the lower-levels so everybody can get a set of gear," said the fatty, as he began to allocate the equipment.
…
Meanwhile, Mu Rufeng was speeding through the wilderness.
Indeed, this region was considerable in size.
Before Mu Rufeng even reached Black Water Lake, he saw black beams of light continuously falling from the sky.
Each beam of light struck a monster with unerring accuracy.
Not a single monster could withstand the attacks from the black beams.
Clearly, these were Copper Giant's methods.
One had to admit, they were formidable.
As he flew, Mu Rufeng suddenly thought of something, and with a flick of his mind, a purple potion appeared in his palm.
Mu Rufeng immediately opened it and drank the potion in one gulp.
[Consumed Experience Potion, Experience +1000000]
After some time, Mu Rufeng arrived at Black Water Lake.
At that moment, Black Water Lake was still black and purple, and its surface remained calm without any signs of disturbance.
Even the black beams of light had never descended here, clearly, the monsters in the lake had long since been killed off by poison.
Standing above the center of Black Water Lake, Mu Rufeng took out a token and poured his mana into it.
The next second, the token burst into dazzling light and then transformed into a beam that shot out of Mu Rufeng's hand and into Black Water Lake.
As the token submerged into the lake, the previously calm surface began rippling.
Immediately after, a tremendous whirlpool rapidly formed.
With the sound of swirling waters, a colossal crystal gate slowly rose from the lakebed, emerging from within the whirlpool.
Above the crystal gate hung a sign with the words 'Dragon Palace' inscribed on it.
Then, under Mu Rufeng's gaze, the Dragon Palace gate slowly opened.
Behind the door, a dazzling scene unfolded, and without much hesitation, Mu Rufeng flew straight in and disappeared from view.
Upon entering the gate of the Dragon Palace, Mu Rufeng felt a flash of light before his eyes.
When his vision cleared, he found himself standing inside a somewhat dimly lit palace.
Mu Rufeng looked around and realized the palace was immensely large, and all around stood numerous stone sculptures that appeared to be palace guards.
[Congratulations player for entering the Dragon Palace dungeon, double event activated, gain double the experience, drop rate, and points for the next hour.]
"Double event? Double experience and drop rate, and double points?" Mu Rufeng was momentarily stunned, then a smile spread across his face.
He loved such events the most.
"Crack, crack, crack~~!"
It seemed that Mu Rufeng's arrival had triggered something in those stone sculptures, as cracks began to appear on them.
Suddenly, the sculptures shattered, the pieces tumbling to the ground.
One by one, putrid shrimp soldiers and crab generals exuding a strong stench emerged before Mu Rufeng.
[Shrimp Soldier (Elite)]: Ordinary shrimp soldier, a guard of the Dragon Palace gate.
Level: 33
Life Value: 200000
Attack Power: 10000
Attributes:…
[Crab General (Elite)]: A crab general, another guard of the Dragon Palace gate.
Level: 35
Life Value: 250000
Attack Power: 12000
Attributes:…
"So it really is shrimp soldiers and crab generals. Does that mean inside there are also turtle seniors, and could the BOSS actually be a True Dragon?" Mu Rufeng's eyes lit up with excitement.
Having already encountered Black Water Jiao, which was merely a Jiao, had shocked Mu Rufeng. The prospect of now seeing a dragon exhilarated him even more.
However, as Mu Rufeng regarded the decaying shrimp soldiers and crab generals before him, he was struck with a bad premonition.
"No matter, let's get to work. It's best to clear this dungeon quickly so I can move on to hunting monsters in other wilderness regions."
Wielding the Dragon Tooth Magic Wand in his hand, Mu Rufeng watched as several beams as thick as washbasins of Scorching Beam appeared and instantly engulfed over a dozen of the shrimp soldiers and crab generals.ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com
The Scorching Beams hit the Dragon Palace's pillars and buildings without any resistance.
[Congratulations player for killing LV33 Shrimp Soldier (Elite), Experience +13200X2, Points +132X2. Received additional experience for killing a monster beyond your level, +13200X2 points]
[Congratulations player for killing LV35 Crab General (Elite), Experience +14000X2, Points +140X2. Received additional experience for killing a monster beyond your level, +14000X2 points]
…
"Whoa," Mu Rufeng was startled, promptly reining in his power.
Mu Rufeng was taken by surprise at the sight of the ten massive Scorching Beams.
Naturally, his gear was at the very least orange-quality, and his weapon was of the Golden Legend tier, all Level 30.
As a result, it became apparent that the Level 15 Skill: Scorching Beam, had become incredibly powerful.
"Looks like I need more practice. When casting a single-target Scorching Beam, I've got to reduce the mana by a tenth," Mu Rufeng reflected.Chapter 382: Chapter 222: The True Dragon Infested by Vile Insects [Seeking Monthly Pass]_3
Chapter 382 -222: The True Dragon Infested by Vile Insects [Seeking Monthly Pass]_3
"Adjusting the size to normal would require reducing some mana," Mu Rufeng murmured.
"Eh? The buildings in Dragon Palace are quite sturdy," Mu Rufeng noted, looking at the spot his Scorching Beam had hit, only to find that it hadn't left any mark.
That's not to say it hadn't left a mark, but it shattered the black, unknown layer on the building, revealing the original appearance of the Dragon Palace architecture.
At that moment, the exposed main structures sparkled with a crystal-like glow, extremely eye-catching.
Quite clearly, these buildings were constructed with crystal.
"This double experience is just too exhilarating," Mu Rufeng exclaimed, feeling on top of the world seeing a single monster providing seventy to eighty thousand experience points.
Mu Rufeng glanced at the pile of items that had dropped on the floor, promptly picked up the soul banknotes, and then stepped over the scattered items to enter the grand hall of Dragon Palace.
Similarly, there were many statues inside the hall.
Apart from shrimp soldiers and Crab Generals, there were also numerous tall figures with shark heads—Shark Monsters.
Moreover, in the very back of the hall, there was an even larger figure resembling an Evil Ghost—the Sea Patrol Yama.
These stone statues were slowly waking up.
Seeing this, Mu Rufeng didn't have much to say; he was too lazy to wait for them to wake up and directly fired dozens of thick Scorching Beams.
As expected, these monsters hadn't yet awakened and were utterly destroyed by Mu Rufeng to the point that not even scraps remained.
[Congratulations to the player for defeating LV33 Elite Shrimp Soldier…]
[Congratulations to the player for defeating LV35 Elite Crab General…]
[Congratulations to the player for defeating LV37 Elite Deceit Shark General, Experience +14800X2, Points +148X2, bonus experience for defeating a higher-level monster, an additional 14800X2 experience points.]

[Your experience points are full, level up to LV21, you receive 3 free attribute points, 3 free skill points to distribute.]
[Your experience points are full, level up to LV22, you receive 3 free attribute points, 3 free skill points to distribute.]
[Level]: LV22 (501200/4915200)
"Announce."
Mu Rufeng replied, then picked up the high-quality gear that dropped on the ground, continuing deeper inside.
While walking, Mu Rufeng allocated all his attribute points to Spirit.
However, when he looked at the remaining skill points, he suddenly remembered he hadn't checked the skills he gained after his job change at Level 20.
He promptly summoned his Skill Tree, and then he saw the Level 20 skill tree branch's Skill icon.
First, Mu Rufeng upgraded the Flame Armor to Level 10 MAX, and then he upgraded the Level 15 skill, Scorching Beam, to Level 10 MAX.
After this, eight skill points remained.
[Scorching Beam MAX]: Concentrates intense fire-element Mana into a high-temperature beam, hitting targets with extremely high temperatures and strong penetrating power, at full level, beam range increases, temperature rises, and speed increases.
Finally, Mu Rufeng allocated the remaining eight skill points to the Level 20 skill.
[Explosive Flame Technique]: Can launch a massive fireball, speed increased tenfold, with strong penetrating power and explosive force, after exploding, creates a magma zone at the site, dealing burning damage to enemies.
"Explosive Flame Technique, looks like it's a high-damage single target or group attack Skill," Mu Rufeng murmured.
"Just right, I should be meeting the boss soon, then I'll try out the power of this new skill."
Before long, Mu Rufeng passed through a massive portal and entered an exceedingly spacious plaza.
On the plaza stood five colossal pillars, so large that perhaps ten adult men couldn't encircle them, rising hundreds of meters and connecting directly to the top of the palace.
There were two on each side, and then one in the very center, forming a pattern like the five dots on a Mahjong tile.
Of particular interest, coiled around each of the pillars on both sides, was a huge stone statue of a Green Flood Dragon.
And wrapped around that central pillar was a statue of a True Dragon.
"Four Green Flood Dragons and a True Dragon, the experience points are about to explode again," Mu Rufeng strutted forward.
"Clack, clack, clack~~!"
As Mu Rufeng approached, the stone statue on one of the left pillars swiftly began to crumble.
"Roar~~!"
A roar echoed throughout the palace.
The Green Flood Dragon came to life, coiling around the pillar, lifting its head high, and staring fixedly at Mu Rufeng.
The remaining three pillars and the middle one remained still.
[Green Jiao General (Commander-level)]: One of the four Jiao Generals of Dragon Palace, immensely powerful.
Level: 40
Rank: Lord-level
Life Value: 2000000
Attack Power: 50000
…
[Black Jiao Dragon General (Commander-level)]: One of the four Jiao Generals of Dragon Palace, immensely powerful, sealed, defeating the Green Jiao General will revive it.
…
The attributes of the four Jiao Generals were almost the same, even the Special Attributes and Skills closely matched.
High strength, thick blood, strong defense, truly super high-spec monsters.
"Huff, huff, huff~~!"
The Green Flood Dragon directly opened its jaws wide, a bloody smell instantly permeating the air.
