Was there a need to choose? Of course not!
Zhang Yang put away the Dark Enigmatic Sword from Schroeder's neck and said, "Uncle, I mean you no harm! I'm a distant relative of Kent Job. His father asked me to find Kent before he passed away! Even if he's dead, I want to see his body with my own eyes! "
Schroeder got up from the ground and patted the dust off his body. He looked confused and asked, "You know Kent?"
"Of course, I'm his nephew!" Zhang Yang lied without any shame. Fortunately, Wei Yan Er did not see it. Otherwise, the little brat would have talked about it for a few days!
Schroeder looked gloomy and said, "Do you have to disturb Kent's soul?"
Zhang Yang patted the Dark Enigmatic Sword and said, "I don't believe that Kent died just like that. Unless I see his body with my own eyes, I will believe that the gods brought Kent back to heaven!"
Schroeder's expression kept changing. After a long time, he sighed and said, "You're right. Kent is not dead. His grave is empty!"
"Is that why you don't want me to dig up the grave?"
"... Yes!"
Zhang Yang raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why?"
Schroeder sighed again. He seemed to have aged a lot. He looked into the distance for a while and said, "Young man, do you want to hear a story?"
Here it comes!
Zhang Yang nodded and said, "It's a blessing for a young man to listen to the teachings of an elder!"
"Haha, young man, you really know how to talk!" Schroeder seemed to be in a better mood. He smiled and said, "22 years ago, I joined the army. You know, this place is very chaotic. The so-called army is just a group of mercenaries hired by dozens of towns! Soldiers like us are all poor. That's why we risk our lives to earn money! After joining the army, I got to know Kent. He was a very strong warrior. Unlike me, who only wanted to make a living, Kent really wanted to do something for the people here! "
Schroeder continued, "Together, we killed the spectres, killed the beasts, and fought the bandits. Kent and I became good friends! About twenty years ago, Kent and I were investigating the Hidden Original Village. We found a group of bandits ransacking the village. We immediately went to fight them. But … "
Schroeder's eyes flashed with intense anger. His voice also became louder. "Those bandits were masked, but after we killed a few of them, Kent removed one of their masks! Only then did we realize that these bandits were actually our own people! It's a mercenary group! "
He suddenly punched the tombstone beside him, and the huge force actually shattered the tombstone that had been corroded by the wind and rain for a long time! Schroeder didn't seem to care at all. He even spat at the tomb and said, "We immediately went back to report the situation, but what we got in return was the siege of these so-called companions! It turned out that they were all in cahoots! Bandits are the army, and the army is bandits! "
Zhang Yang did not say a word. He just listened to Schroeder's story. He thought to himself that it was a common practice for bandits to be a family.
"But they underestimated Kent's strength. He single-handedly wiped out the entire army that was stationed at Black Carbon Mound! We had considered spreading the news, but the mercenary group was too powerful. They had already formed a faction, and if we were to expose them, there would definitely be a huge war, and too many innocent people would be implicated! So Kent decided to hide his identity, and secretly organize a force to overthrow the leader of the mercenary group, Cazalou! "
Schroeder revealed a cold smile and said, "So, I built a fake grave for Kent and faked his death. To the outside world, I announced that we were ambushed by the undead and that I was the only one who survived by luck! No one knew that Kent was still alive, and Cazalou would never use Kent's family to threaten him! "
Actually, it was easier for Kent to die. He could just become a grave robber and get the key fragment and leave! But now, he had to look for Kent again, and who knows what kind of quest would await him!
Zhang Yang asked, "Uncle, where is Kent now?"
Schroeder looked at Zhang Yang and said, "Young man, can I trust you?"
Zhang Yang raised his right hand and said, "In the name of the God of War, I swear that I am not with Cazalou!"
Schroeder thought for a while and said, "Alright, my intuition tells me that you are a trustworthy warrior! Kent is currently in White Rock Peak, and he has built a base under the name of 'Robber'. However, he has never robbed the poor, and he has always been attacking the territories of the mercenaries, weakening their strength! Also, Kent's name is Smith, Joe Smith! "
"Thank you, uncle Schroeder!"
Zhang Yang summoned Whitey and ran towards the west.
After another hour of traveling, Zhang Yang finally arrived at the foot of a steep mountain. The mountain was about 300 to 400 meters high, and it was desolate, with only a few big trees growing alone.
Zhang Yang walked up the mountain path, and after a few steps, he saw two muscular men with weapons in their hands suddenly jump out from behind a big rock, and without saying anything, they slashed at Zhang Yang.
[White Rock Plunderer] (Normal, Humanoid)
Level: 81
HP: 8,100
Defense: 80
Normal tier monsters were nothing to Zhang Yang. Zhang Yang did not care about them at all. He patted Whitey and continued running forward.
The two monsters chased after Zhang Yang all the way to the top of the mountain.
"Intruder!" After a few steps, three more White Rock Plunderers jumped out from behind the rock and attacked Zhang Yang.
As long as they were not elite tier monsters, Zhang Yang would not care about them!
Zhang Yang continued to run.
After passing through a huge wooden door, Zhang Yang entered the bandit's lair. There were tiled houses on both sides of the road. There were bandits lurking in the houses. Zhang Yang lured them out one by one. There was a long train behind him. There were at least a hundred bandits in total.
He had to stop because there was a boss in front of him!
[Captain Afel] (Gray-Silver, Humanoid)
Level: 81
HP: 810,000
Defense: 900
Zhang Yang turned around and faced the army of monsters behind him.
-0！
-0！
-0！
…
Facing Zhang Yang's strong defense, the monsters' attacks were completely nullified, not even a little bit of damage!
{Horizontal Sweep}!
More than 5,000 damage values popped up, but unfortunately, the sword's special effect was not triggered.
After the one second cooldown was over, Zhang Yang used {Blast Wave} again!
Compared to {Horizontal Sweep}, {Blast Wave}'s single target damage was not high, but its area of effect was much wider, and it was a penetrating attack. The more monsters there were, the stronger the effect of the skill!
Instantly, more than 20 '-1093' damage values popped up, and some of them were even critical hits! Right after that, the sword's special effect was triggered, and a new wave of damage values popped up!
However, it was only triggered once.
10 seconds later, Zhang Yang used {Horizontal Sweep} again, but still, the sword's special effect was not triggered. It was only until the fifth time that the special effect was triggered, and a large number of damage values popped up!
After 5 minutes, hundreds of monsters were wiped out, but the sword's special effect was only triggered twice as often as before!
Zhang Yang could not help but to frown slightly. Although the special effect of the sword was only 2%, there was actually a hidden rule! Only when the player's level was about the same as the equipment's, would the special effect be triggered. As the player's level increases, the special effect would decrease continuously!
The Dark Enigmatic Sword's equipment requirement was Level 60, and between Level 60 and Level 70, the special effect would not be discounted at all! But as he reaches Level 80, the special effect would start to decrease!
Now, there was still a 1% special effect, but when he reaches Level 90, it would only be 0.5%!
This was the game company's special effect to increase the speed of upgrading equipment, or else, some of the best equipment would be used until the end of time!
It was such a pity that the special effect of the Dark Enigmatic Sword would not be used, it was definitely an AoE weapon, and it would be retired from the stage of history at Level 90!
Zhang Yang sighed and summoned the [Mythical Turtle].
After reaching Level 80, the attributes of the Violet-Platinum pet mount had increased by leaps and bounds, and the price of the Pet Skill Book in the auction house had also dropped, and Zhang Yang finally bought the Wild Recovery skill book.
The current attributes of the Mythical Turtle were: HP 50480 (with Vitality Aura), Defense 2,400, Attack 7038 – 8,038, absolutely powerful!
Zhang Yang ran a few steps forward and threw a {Spear of Obliteration} at Afel, then ran back to the Mythical Turtle and waited for the boss to come to him.
"Intruder, how dare you behave so atrociously in White Rock Peak, I, Afel, will tear you into pieces!" The boss immediately roared, raised his huge hammer and chased after Zhang Yang.
-2982！
A damage value appeared on top of Zhang Yang's head.
A Level 80 Gray-Silver boss would definitely be much stronger than a Level 70 boss. However, Zhang Yang's Defense was almost twice as strong as when he was Level 79. Therefore, compared to when he was Level 70 +, Zhang Yang received much less damage!
Zhang Yang laughed out loud and immediately counterattacked.
Riding on the Mythical Turtle, Zhang Yang's movement speed was extremely slow. However, the boss was not a player. It did not know how to kite Zhang Yang. It only knew how to swing its hammer and smash Zhang Yang into a meat patty. It did not even have the slightest intention of moving!
After activating five {Cripple Defense}, Zhang Yang and the Mythical Turtle's attack output had reached the maximum!
Especially for the [Mythical Turtle], the average damage of the [Mythical Turtle] was about 7,500. The 450 points of the [Mythical Turtle] could barely reduce the damage of the [Mythical Turtle]. The DPS of the [Mythical Turtle] had reached a terrifying 4,100! It was even higher than Zhang Yang's 3,300!
As expected of a Violet-Platinum pet mount!
The boss's DPS to Zhang Yang was only 1,000, and it would take at least 2 minutes to reduce Zhang Yang's 120,000 HP! On the other hand, Zhang Yang and the Mythical Turtle's DPS had reached 7,400, and it would take less than 2 minutes to reduce the boss's 810,000 HP!
Furthermore, this was a direct confrontation with the boss, there was no need to activate any life-saving or healing skills!
With half of his Violet-Platinum equipment and a Violet-Platinum pet mount, Zhang Yang could easily defeat a Gray-Silver boss of the same level!
Afel's HP was dropping like crazy, and when his HP dropped to 10%, the boss let out a long roar and stopped attacking, and a casting bar appeared on his head.
{Heal}!
Players' {Heal} was instantaneous, but Afel's {Heal} had a 1 second channeling time!
Zhang Yang immediately threw a {Crash Magic} over.
{Immune}!
Zhang Yang activated the special effect of the {Ring of Imprisonment}, stunning the target for 2 seconds!
It was still immune!
What the f * ck, since it could not be interrupted, why give the boss a 1 second channeling time? Just instant cast!
+202500！
A huge green number floated above the boss's head, and Afel instantly recovered a quarter of his HP! Fortunately, he was still under the effect of {Destructive Smash}, which greatly reduced the HP recovery of the {Heal}!
Zhang Yang understood, the boss's {Heal} had a 1 second channeling time, and it was not for players to interrupt, but for players to use {Destructive Smash}!
However, even though the boss had an additional 200,000 HP, it was only enough to buy him half a minute of respite!
Once again, Zhang Yang reduced Afel's HP down to 10%, but this time, the boss did not have any {Heal}, so he could only watch as his HP dropped lower and lower. In the end, the boss was brutally bitten by the Mythical Turtle, and the last bit of his HP was gone!
'Ding! You have killed Afel, obtained 810,000 Experience Points! '
Afel dropped a few Gray-Silver and Green-Copper equipment, and Zhang Yang swept all of them into his inventory. Zhang Yang summoned Whitey again and continued to advance up the mountain.
Shush!
A cold light flashed, and a long spear appeared in front of Zhang Yang, and the other end of the spear was in the hands of a green-skinned orc. The orc opened its mouth wide, revealing two rows of sharp teeth as it roared at Zhang Yang.
[White Stone Elite Bandit] (Elite, Humanoid)
Level: 82
HP: 82000
Defense: 450
Zhang Yang did not dare to provoke too many elite monsters. After all, the attack power of an elite monster was still quite high, and could cause quite a lot of damage to him!
Whitey roared and used {Wild Charge} to charge at the orc, and swung its giant bear claw at it.
With the current attributes of the [Gold-Eared Bear King], it could easily defeat an elite monster of the same level, let alone with Zhang Yang on top of it! The orc could only resist for a while, and then fell into a pool of blood.
But since Zhang Yang could not kill all of them at once, his speed was greatly reduced, and so was the effect of the Dark Enigmatic Sword! Looking at how Whitey's single attack could deal 5,000 damage, and comparing it to his own average damage of 2,500, Zhang Yang could not help but cry!
He couldn't even compare to Big Black Bear, let alone Lord Turtle!
He was not as good as a pet!
He had to get himself a Violet-Platinum weapon! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
