Chapter 24: Ten Rewards

down from above."Ding~ Congratulations on leveling up to level 4, you have gained 5 points of free attribute points. The next upgrade requires 2000 experience points!"Zhang Yi, who had finally reache...Seeing the discussions in the chat channel, the King of Glory, who had just come out from the Revival Spring in Hope Town, was furious.

[Glory of Kings] (Male, Level 8 Player): "A promise to the city, I ***"

King of Glory: “ ”

"Excuse me, I'm a little unclear. Could you please translate it in plain language"

Near the Fountain of Revival, a king in Glory of Kings had just finished editing a message and was about to send it when he suddenly received a system prompt:

"Ding~ The system detected malicious screen brushing and obvious vulgar language from you. You have been muted by the system for 1 hour!"

Damn!

When they were losing badly in Glory of Kings, the top players, known as “Kings,” returned from the Fountain of Rebirth.

Seeing his teammates wiped out, King of Glory became even angrier: "Damn it, you can't beat one person with so many people With your skill level, you dare to call yourselves professional players I pay 100,000 a month, and I hired you trash"

At this time, the king returned and hurriedly said, “Captain, calm down. The main reason is that guy's attributes are too high! Besides his attack power, his defense and HP are super high, didn't you notice I'm sure he definitely has full HP of 25!”

"You're kidding me!" The King of Glory player was seething: "I had a thousand-person team grinding all night just to barely scrape together 25, what does he have He can solo farm tens of thousands of enhancement stones to buff his entire set"

"What do we do now" The king returned, lowering his head: "He has killed you twice already, looted you of two pieces of equipment, and this matter is already known to everyone..."

King's Glory gritted his teeth and said, "Even if the level drops, it can be leveled up. It's difficult to fight in the early stage with two-star equipment, especially weapons. No matter what, I must get back the Silver Moon Bow. Damn it, what the hell did he explode He exploded my best equipment! What a bad luck!"

"I swear on my life, you better remember this. Within three days, if I don't kill you, you delete your account and quit the game! I'll livestream myself eating **!"

"Captain…" The Overlord murmured, "The first time we encountered Yī Nò Qīng Chéng, you said you didn't believe he could hit 40 to 50 damage with one blow. You even said if he could, you'd stream yourself eating poop..."

"You mother**er!" The King of Glory kicked the Supreme King with a stomp: "Get the hell out of here, get lost! I'm firing you!"

The Supreme Ruler: "..."

In the Dark Forest, after consecutively eliminating King's Glory captains twice, Zhang Yi, who was almost on fire in safe zone 886, ignored the surrounding discussions. What puzzled him was how King's Glory knew he was in the Dark Forest.

Finally, Zhang Yi found the answer in the regional chat channel's chat logs from about twenty minutes ago: it turned out that rogue players in the Dark Forest couldn't resist the temptation of the 100,000 yuan reward in Glory of Kings and exposed their positions.

This King of Glory, is really rich!

Zhang Yi also didn't mind these things. He spent several minutes picking up everything that had exploded from the deaths of more than thirty people in Glory just now and counted them.

Because they were all Grey Name, Grey Name death 100% exploded with a piece of equipment, so, a total harvest of 35 pieces of equipment, all between levels 1-8, strengthened to level 10 below and 1-star goods.

Now Zhang Yi doesn't really look down on these 1-star equipment, because he had farmed all night in the Dark Forest before. He already got seven or eight pieces of 6-8 level 1-star equipment from a thousand demon wolves. They were all un-identified, just like the equipment dropped by players in the King's World.

Zhang Yi planned to return to the safe zone later and set up a stall to sell them all. Although these pieces of equipment were useless to him at the moment, many other players would need them.

As for equipment, the Silvermoon Bow was Zhang Yi's biggest gain. This piece of equipment alone proved that the thirty or so people they had just killed were not in vain.

Besides, Zhang Yi valued most the coins and strengthening stones they had unearthed.

A total of 2000 copper coins were harvested, which is equivalent to 20 silver coins!

I also got over sixty gems.

Checking the time, it was exactly eight o'clock. Zhang Yi yawned and set off back to Hope Town, leaving behind a group of scattered players in the dark forest who were still shaken by the scene of him single-handedly slaughtering over thirty people from the King's World just moments ago.

After returning to the safe zone, Zhang Yi immediately found the NPC boss of the blacksmith shop — Er.

Trigger a conversation.

"Young warrior, I didn't expect you to actually bring me so many wolf pelts, thank you so much!" Ir excitedly said as she received the 100 wolf pelts Zhang Yi had traded her.

At the same time, a pleasant chime sounded in Zhang Yi's ear—

"Ding～ Congratulations on completing the task [Collect Wolf Skins], you get 2000 experience points, 250 copper coins, 15 level-up stones, 36 Human faction reputation, and acquire equipment [Wolfskin Coat] x1! Familiarity with [Blacksmith Boss] increases by 6!"

Just then, another prompt sounded in his ear —

"Ding～ Player Yiyongqingcheng, congratulations on your intimacy with [Blacksmith Owner] exceeding 10 points. Intimacy level upgraded to Level 1, obtaining the privilege: From now on, when forging equipment at the blacksmith shop, you can enjoy a 95% discount! The next upgrade requires raising the intimacy to 50 points!"

Intimacy level is a gameplay element designed by the developers of Tianqi to enrich the gaming experience. Players can increase their intimacy with specific NPCs by completing missions. When intimacy reaches a certain threshold, players can elevate their intimacy level, unlocking various benefits and rewards.

NPCs are roughly divided into several categories based on their profession: commoners, blacksmith owners, innkeepers, shop owners, appraisal masters, guards, and mayors (town heads). The intimacy level is universal across the entire world of [Tianqi].

For example, if a player reaches level 2 of intimacy with the shopkeeper in the safe zone by completing tasks and interacting with them, after reaching level 30 and going to the main city, their intimacy level with the main city shopkeeper will also be 2. When buying potions, equipment, etc., in the store, they can get a 10% discount.

The higher the intimacy level, the greater the discount you can receive. In addition, players have a chance to obtain hidden quests from NPCs through very high intimacy levels!

Back to the topic.

Even with the 2000 experience points gained from completing the task, Zhang Yi was unable to level up. The 8000 experience points required to ascend from level 9 to level 10 were simply too high.

As for the 【Wolfskin Cloak】, it's a level 9, 1-star item, the kind you'd find at a street stall. Zhang Yi, who possesses the 2-star 【Guardian's Armor】, wouldn't even glance at it.

After submitting the task, Il ignored Zhang Yi. Ordinary players would definitely turn and leave at this time to find another NPC who could give out tasks.

While Zhang Yi, suddenly thought of his own youthful years, hanging on QQ a non-mainstream personality signature: as long as you take the initiative to click, we have stories.

Then, Zhang Yi took the initiative to talk to Er: "I still have extra wolf skins here, do you need them"

As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, Elton was immediately surprised: "Really, warrior How many wolf skins do you have left Do you have 100"

"Yes." Then Zhang Yi took out another 100 wolf skins and handed them to Er.

"Ding~ Congratulations on completing the task [Collect Wolf Skins] for the second time, you have gained 2000 experience points and 50 copper coins! Your intimacy with [Blacksmith Boss] has increased by 2!"

Resubmitting the task will result in a significant decrease in rewards.

Zhang Yi took out another 100 wolf skins and continued to submit them. He repeated this process until all 1000 wolf skins he had collected were handed in ten times. Il smiled so broadly that his mouth couldn't close: “Young warrior, you have truly surprised me! I never expected you to collect so many wolf skins for me. I don't know how to thank you!”

Zhang Yi didn't beat around the bush: "Then make me a piece of equipment!"

Because in the previous life, the player who completed this task ten times received the ultimate reward, which was to have the blacksmith tailor a top-tier piece of equipment for him.

And it seems like only the first player to complete this ten-chain quest is eligible to make this request, and those who come after can only silently accept El's reward of a rare piece of equipment.

As expected, Il did not refuse Zhang Yi's request: "No problem, warrior. What kind of equipment do you want me to make for you"

Zhang Yi thought for a moment, then said, "Make me a magic wand."onsidered it their base of operations after invading Earth. The leader of the vanguard force, [Locke], activated his alien powers to transform the millions of corpses within the city into skeletons an...
