"Let's go and turn in the quest!" Zhang Yang dragged Fatty Han to find Saul, the captain of the guards, and turned in the 'Ambush' quest. He received a Black-Steel ring.
[Saul's Ring of Gratitude] (Black-Steel, Ring)
Vitality: + 2
Strength: + 3
Equip Effect: Each attack has a certain chance to heal you, the value is 1% of the damage dealt.
Level Requirement: 10
This was the first equipment in the game with a lifesteal effect. Unfortunately, the amount of recovery was too little, and the trigger rate was not high either! It could not be helped, this was a public quest reward, it was good enough to get a ring, it was better than not wearing it at all!
Boom! With a flash of golden light, Zhang Yang reached Level 11 with the 10,000 experience points from the quest reward.
Initially, Zhang Yang thought that he would be able to enter the Level Ranking Board. However, when he opened up the Ranking Board, he realized that all the players who were still Level 10 in the morning had already reached Level 11. There was still no place for him. Fortunately, the first player on the Ranking Board was still Level 11.
"Fatty Han, I'll go make the shield first, you can go and level up yourself!" Zhang Yang said.
Fatty Han yawned and said, "I've only slept for 3 to 4 hours, now I'm sleepy again, I'll go sleep first!"
Zhang Yang looked at the in-game clock and said, "Damn, it's already 6 o 'clock, what's the point of sleeping? Go eat dinner first, then play online for a while, rest well tonight, don't stay up all night! You've been playing for so long every day, why stay up all night? "
"Hmm, that makes sense, then I'll go and fight some monsters, I'll have a taste of my new weapon! Hmm, wait, someone is whispering me! " After a pause, Fatty Han's expression immediately became wretched, "Little Yang, there's a beauty looking for me to chat, I'm not going to waste time with you!"
Zhang Yang smiled, turned around and walked towards the auction house.
The materials to make the [Earthen Round Shield] required 100 [Iron Ingots] and 1 [Plain Copper Ingot]. Zhang Yang did not have a single [Iron Ingot] on him, so he could only go to the auction house to buy.
The auction house was a place in the game for players to buy and sell items. Every main city had one, but different main cities' auction houses did not share information. In other words, the items that were put up for sale in White Jade City's Auction House could only be purchased through White Jade City's Auction House. If players from other cities wished to purchase the items, they would have to personally make a trip to White Jade City.
Upon entering the Auction House, Zhang Yang opened up the search interface and keyed in "Iron Ore", "Iron Ingot". With a click of the search button, there was a huge list of items for sale.
Since the game had just started, there were all sorts of sky-high prices. Zhang Yang compared the prices and bought 15 stacks of [Iron Bars] with a fixed price of 50 silver coins per stack, totaling up to 300 pieces.
Zhang Yang went to the Blacksmith's Shop and took out the [Iron Ingot] that had been sent by the Auction House. Zhang Yang went to the Blacksmith's Shop and placed 100 [Iron Ingot] and one [Plain Copper Ingot] on the anvil. He opened the Smithing interface and selected [Earthen Round Shield]. He then pressed the 'Craft' button. His character automatically swung the hammer and a progress bar appeared under his avatar.
Thirty seconds later.
"Ding! You have crafted an Earthen Round Shield. Your Smithing Proficiency has increased by 1 point!]
In 'God's Miracle', crafting skills were divided into seven levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, Expert, Master, Grandmaster, and Craftsman. Each level required 1,000 proficiency points. NPCs would not teach players how to craft items. Players would have to learn the crafting methods through blueprints.
Beginner blueprints were relatively easy to obtain. However, after reaching Expert level, it would be extremely difficult to obtain a corresponding blueprint. In order to level up from Expert level to Master level, players would have to craft Expert level items to increase their proficiency points. Without a blueprint, they could only stare at it helplessly.
That was why even in Zhang Yang's previous life, the game had been running for 5 years and there were only a handful of players who had reached the Craftsman level.
Zhang Yang fondled the shield fondly and equipped it. He replaced the original [Earthen Round Shield] and his attributes increased by a large margin.
[Player: Zhan Yu]
Level: 11
HP: 790
Defense: 64
Strength: 86
Dexterity: 32
Luck: 2
Melee Damage: 102 – 110
Attack Interval: 2 seconds
64 Defense! Zhang Yang smiled. With such high Defense, there were not many players who could break through his defense. With 790 HP, even if he just stood there and did not move, it would take a long time for someone to attack him.
He crafted another two [Earthen Round Shield] and used up all the materials. He then went to the mailbox and paid for one of the shields to Crimson Fire. After that, he went to the auction house and put the other [Earthen Round Shield] up anonymously with 400 gold coins as the base price and no upper limit. The auction would last for one day.
Looking at the time, it was already 6.30 pm. Just as Zhang Yang was about to log out for dinner, he heard a beep. He had received a private message.
"Friend, I have a lot of [Iron Ores]. If you need them, you can message me directly. I can give you a discount!"
Zhang Yang took a look and saw that the message was from a player called "Professional Miner". He immediately recalled that the 15 sets of [Iron Bar] that he had bought in the auction house were all put up for sale by this person. Since the auction house would charge a 10% handling fee, Gatherer players hoped to develop a stable clientele and reduce their costs through direct transactions.
Zhang Yang thought about the large amount of [Iron Bars] that he would need to forge a shield recently. He would need a reliable supplier. Zhang Yang immediately sent a private message over and said, "Hmm, I need 10 to 20 sets of [Iron Bars] every day. Can you guarantee the supply?"
"Haha, I'm a Professional Miner. Even if you ask for a few times more, I can still mine for you!" Professional Miner replied in a very proud tone.
"Alright, what's the price?"
"It depends on how much you want."
"Hmm, let's start with 100 sets!" Zhang Yang casually said a number. It was just enough to craft 20 shields. It was not a lot.
"Tsk! You really dared to say that! "Professional Miner took in a deep breath.
"Haha, you said it yourself!" Zhang Yang laughed.
"Hehe, 100 sets is too much. I only have 30 sets of [Iron Bar]!"
"Alright, 30 sets it is. Name your price!"
"Hmm, 48 silver coins per set. How's that?"
He listed a set of [Iron Bar] at the auction house for 50 silver coins per set. 10% handling fee was only 5 silver coins. This set of [Iron Bar] was 2 silver coins cheaper.
Zhang Yang immediately replied, "Alright, send me a mail when you receive the payment. I'm going offline to eat first!"
"Hmm, let's be friends. It's easier to keep in touch!"
Professional Miner quickly sent a friend request. Zhang Yang accepted it and went offline.
Taking off the game helmet, Zhang Yang exhaled. After lying down for a long time, his body was a little stiff. He stretched his arms and legs and ran to the kitchen to prepare dinner. After eating for a while, he went online again.
The mail assistant notified him that there was a new mail. Zhang Yang ran to the mailbox to receive the mail. The first mail was from Professional Miner. Since it was a payment, Zhang Yang accepted it and the system immediately transferred 14 gold coins and 30 sets of [Iron Bar] into his inventory. The second mail was from Crimson Fire who had collected the [Earthen Round Shield] and the system automatically transferred 500 gold coins to him.
He sent a message to Fatty Han, asking him to join him for a quest. But that guy said he was busy chatting with a beauty and did not have time to talk to him!
"This guy prioritizes girls over friends!" Zhang Yang shook his head. He had planned to ask Fatty Han to join him for a special quest, but that fatty did not take the bait. Zhang Yang could not be bothered with him!
After leaving the city, he headed east. Before he could go far, he was stopped by four people.
Flower Underpants, Prideful Precepts, Prideful Babysitter, and Kindling Chest Hair, the four of them.
"Motherf * cker, you stupid warrior. I've said it before. If you don't join my party, I'll kill you back to Level 0!" Prideful Precepts stared at Zhang Yang fiercely and gritted his teeth.
After the four of them were kicked out of the party by Zhang Yang, they were furious. After a discussion, the four of them decided that they would not let it go. They had to teach Zhang Yang a lesson! Therefore, they waited at the entrance of the dungeon, waiting for Zhang Yang to come out before ganging up on him.
In the end, after waiting for a long time, they saw the server's red screen!
They were angry and anxious! If Zhang Yang had not kicked them out of the party, they would have had a share of the good fortune of being famous all over the world! The four of them did not reflect on why they were kicked out of the party. Instead, they put all the blame on Zhang Yang, which strengthened their determination to 'teach' Zhang Yang a lesson.
After Snowy Death and the rest had left the dungeon, they waited for a long time but did not see Zhang Yang. Only then did Prideful Precepts realize that Zhang Yang had used a Teleportation Scroll! Therefore, they hurried back to the city. Coincidentally, they bumped into Zhang Yang on the way!
Zhang Yang smiled faintly and said, "With just you bunch of useless guys?"
"F * ck you, why are you still talking nonsense with him? Kill him!" Kindling Chest Hair took out his hammer and stared at Zhang Yang fiercely.
"Yes, let's kill him! If I don't kill him back to Level 0 today, I won't be able to take this lying down! "Flower Underpants' figure flashed and immediately entered stealth mode, disappearing from sight.
Prideful Precepts also began to create fireballs while Kindling Chest Hair raised his hammer and rushed towards Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang was not in a hurry. He just crossed his arms in front of his chest and let out a faint cold smile.
"Stupid warrior, die for me!" Kindling Chest Hair had already arrived, swinging his shield and throwing it at Zhang Yang.
--- .
"Pak!" A damage text floated above Zhang Yang's head. "-1!"
'Ding! You have been attacked by Flower Underpants' party. You have 10 minutes to counterattack! '
The system notification rang in his ears. Zhang Yang's eyes turned cold and finally revealed his killing intent!
According to the game rules, if two parties were to fight, the party who made the first move would be judged as the provoker by the system and would be shown with a red name. The attacked party would be free to counterattack within 10 minutes. Red name players would lose two levels regardless of whether they were killed by players, monsters, or NPCs!
The reason why Zhang Yang did not make the first move was to let the system judge the four of them as red name provokers!
At the same time, Flower Underpants also appeared from stealth mode and came behind Zhang Yang, swinging his two swords at Zhang Yang.
"-1!"
"-1!"
Against Zhang Yang's 64 Defense, Flower Underpants could not break through his defense and could only cause 1 damage!
"F * ck, why is this stupid warrior's Defense so thick!" Flower Underpants exclaimed.
"Dang!" Kindling Chest Hair's hammer swung up and also knocked out a ridiculous' -1 'damage.
"-36!"
Prideful Precepts's also came out and smashed onto Zhang Yang, finally causing a decent amount of damage.
— — Defense could only reduce physical damage and was ineffective against magic effects.
Zhang Yang snorted lightly and used on Prideful Precepts, stunning him. With a sweep of his sword, a terrifying '-103' appeared above his head, instantly taking away a quarter of his HP.
"F * ck me, why is the damage so high!" Prideful Precepts screamed in the party channel. "Healer, heal me!"
At this time, Flower Underpants and Kindling Chest Hair ran back and raised their weapons to attack Zhang Yang.
" !"
"-70!"
"-82!"
The damage reflected by floated above Kindling Chest Hair and Flower Underpants' heads at the same time.
"-204!"
"-210!"
"-209!"
"-190!"
"-20!"
Another was swung out, causing huge damage to Flower Underpants and the rest. It also triggered the necklace's and hit Zhang Yang's current target, Prideful Precepts.
"F * ck, this guy is not human!"
"Healer, heal me!"
"F * ck, heal me first!"
"-166!"
Zhang Yang slammed his shield on Prideful Precepts and used to cause a huge amount of damage, sending Prideful Precepts who had less than 100 HP to the resurrection point, not giving Prideful Healer a chance to finish chanting his healing skill!
"Ding! You have killed Prideful Precepts! "
"-99!"
Zhang Yang swung his sword again and cut Prideful Healer's body. At the same time, he activated and another '-101' damage floated above his head.
"Ding! You have killed Prideful Healer! "
In an instant, only Flower Underpants and Kindling Chest Hair were left with 146 and 428 HP respectively!
