ge rate!Thanks to these two features, when the [Tianyun Group] announced in May 2025 that the open beta test of [Tianqi] would begin at the end of August, it immediately caused a global sensation.Howe...Level 17-18 necromancers and death knights were about as strong as skeleton warriors and archers, so they posed no real threat to Zhang Yi. He could basically take them out in two or three moves with no pressure at all.
Then, Zhang Yi spent another hour or so defeating 90 Necromancer Mages and 90 Necromancer Assassins, bringing all four stages of the "Soul Tranquility" quest to 100%.
You can go out and submit the task now, as it is just nine o'clock in the evening.
Zhang Yi only took two hours to complete the level 2 [Soul Transcendence] with a difficulty coefficient of 200, which was surprisingly efficient.
But Zhang Yi didn't want to submit the mission and return to the city right away. Because his most important task for this trip to the City of the Dead was still unfinished: the energy crystal.
Ilona needs a level 1 energy crystal to continue helping Zhang Yi forge weapons, but Zhang Yi has been grinding in the City of the Dead for two hours. He's gotten over 40 "God Bones" and "Wraith Insights," but not a single crystal!
Having thought that energy crystals were difficult to obtain, Zhang Yi never expected it to be this hard!
Since there are still three hours left, let's keep grinding. I have to get at least one Tier 1 energy crystal tonight. Otherwise, if we wait any longer, Zhang Yi might not be able to get the top-notch weapon crafted by Il before the disaster that sweeps through the safe zone tomorrow.
Zhang Yi still hoped to use the weapons made from Il to counter the disaster, because he knew that relying solely on the silver bone ring of 25 wouldn't be enough.
Thus, Zhang Yi continued to brush the undead.
I kept grinding from 9:00 p.m. all the way to 11:30 p.m., but I didn't get a single energy crystal!
However, during this period, Zhang Yi did indeed harvest two rare [Wraith Suit] pieces of equipment. Unfortunately, the ordinary monsters that dropped them were all 1-star quality, and they weren't even usable by Zhang Yi.
A piece of armor belonging to the warrior set, the Wraith Armor, and another piece belonging to the assassin set, the Wraith Necklace.
The seven professions' undead armor sets have different bonus effects. For example, the warrior set increases bloodsucking ability, and the assassin set increases movement speed.
The Mage and Beast Master's Necromancer set can gain casting speed bonuses. The two-piece set provides a 5% casting speed increase, the three-piece set provides a 10% increase... When you complete the seven-piece Necromancer set for Mages, you can get a massive 50% casting speed boost!
It would also be great if you could get a set of high-star Necromancer gear for wizards.
As for the energy crystals, Zhang Yi gave up. Because if he didn't go out and submit the task soon, the [Soul Transcendence] mission would expire and fail.
Then, Zhang Yi came to the outskirts of the City of the Dead and, at the Undead Merchant · Aero standing by the city gate, submitted the quest.
"Young adventurer, I didn't expect you to finish the task so quickly. You're truly amazing! Please accept your well-deserved reward!"
As Ai Luo's voice fell, a melodious system prompt came from Zhang Yi's ear——
"Ding～ Congratulations on completing the mission 【Soul Transfer】 (Level 2 Difficulty), gaining rewards: experience points 42000, silver coins 60, level 2 reinforcement stone 15, human reputation 60, obtained equipment [Magic Hat] 1, obtained special reward [First-Order Energy Crystal] 1! Increased intimacy with [Wild Wanderer] 8!"
Golden light shone —
"Ding～ Congratulations on your level up, current level 15…"
Oh my god!
Hearing the system's announcement about mission rewards, Zhang Yi almost choked on his blood.
I spent the whole night grinding skeletons and undead but none of them dropped, and Zhang Yi directly received a level 1 energy crystal as a mission reward!
All in all, it's a good thing. Otherwise, Zhang Yi originally planned to return to the safe zone for a rest and come back tomorrow to farm again.
As for the equipment rewards, it's a bit of a pity not to have gotten the Necromancer set, but the hat is exactly what Zhang Yi needs right now. Until now, Zhang Yi has had nothing on his head, and he's always lacked a hat.
Opening my backpack, I took a look at the black wizard hat I had just been awarded. It was still a level 15, 2-star item. However, because wizards have low health as a class, it only added 130 points of life and 6 points of stamina. If it were the same-level knight armor, it would add at least 250 points of base health.
Thus, Zhang Yi took out 25 level-2 enhancement stones from his bag. "Ding ding ding," under the blessing of a god-level enhancement, another piece of level 25 divine equipment was obtained -
【Magic Hat】 (25):
Quality: 2 stars
Level: 15
Life: 455 (325)
Additional Attribute: Stamina 21 (15)
Exclusive Talent: Life Enhancement (Increases the wearer's maximum health by 100 points)
Job Restrictions: Mage, Beastmaster
Description: This is a magical hat. Just put it on and you'll become magical...
Wearing this hat, Zhang Yi, who looked more composed, opened the simplified status bar——
【One Oath Captures the City】(Level 15, First Job Beast Tamer):
Magic Attack: 340
Physical Defense: 156
Magic Defense: 135
Health: 1275
Energy: 590
Experience: 14270/45000
Reputation: 2812
Special Status: Dragonblood Lineage Lv1
Description: A beast tamer who has completed one turn, just starting out...
This Qi and Blood, simply invincible!
Looking at the entire safe zone, those with a blood value exceeding 500 are scarce, besides warriors and knights. As a beastmaster named Zhang Yi, his total blood value has surprisingly exceeded four digits!
At this stage, even a knight with 15 level, 3 physique, and 2 endurance stat points is likely only at Zhang Yi's level! This is because their equipment cannot reach the level of 15 level 2 stars, and the enhancement level cannot exceed 15 levels.
Now Zhang Yi is a force to be reckoned with! He can both attack and defend, he's like the combination of a mage and a tank!
By the time Er returns with his weapon, Zhang Yi's strength will increase by another level. Not to mention Security Zone 886, Zhang Yi feels that in the entire Eighth District, he is invincible!
It's 11:30. Although there's only half an hour left, the Wraith Crossing mission will refresh and he can take on more quests to farm skeletons and wraiths in the City of Death. However, Zhang Yi doesn't plan to stay up all night like last night. After nearly 12 hours from noon until now, his fatigue level has dropped to 30%. Plus, he feels mentally exhausted. He needs to go back to rest now.
Thus, players kept arriving at the city of the undead in groups, ready to grind levels all night. Zhang Yi, however, left the City of the Undead and headed towards Hope Town.Zone (Nightmare difficulty)Background: Alien invasion of Earth, the rise of enhanced beast races, and Earth faces an apocalyptic crisis.Task Description: According to the mini map, please find Area 8,...
