The night passed. Zhang Yang practiced boxing and ran as usual, training for more than an hour. After eating breakfast, he logged into the game.
First, he cleared the front palace and back palace with Shuiyan 'er and the others in Death Mode. Then, Zhang Yang disbanded the team. He had just returned to the main city when he received a few messages.
Tyrant, Ling Tian, and Enraged Beauty had cleared Mazawi's Lair: Main Palace in Hard Mode. Now, they had entered Death Mode's Main Palace and were about to follow up with another victory!
Fatty Han immediately became anxious and said, "Yang, we have to act quickly, or else the First Clear will be snatched away!"
"There's no use in being anxious. Look at the guild. There are only five of us above Level 20. The highest level below us are only five Level 17!" Zhang Yang said with a smile. He was not anxious at all.
Tyrant, Ling Tian, and Enraged Beauty were indeed super guilds. They were able to defeat Mazawi in Hard Mode without using the Beginner Dark Resistance Potion. Their strength was indeed indescribable! However, to kill Mazawi in Death Mode without the Dark Resistance Potion, there was no need to even think about it!
This was proven by the bloody team wipes time and time again in his previous life!
According to Five Years of Game Retrospective, Mazavid, who was in Death Mode, had blocked the various major guilds for seventeen days. It was only then that a player had obtained the recipe for the Beginner Dark Resistance Potion. After the finished product was released to the market, Mazavid had only resisted for a day before he fell under the sharp sword of the Glory Guild's expedition team!
Glory Guild was in another main city of the China server, Purple Star City. Because every main city had its own map for areas below Level 50, Zhang Yang was not afraid that his appearance would cause the little butterfly's wings to affect the other seven main cities of the China server.
The only thing he had to worry about was White Jade City! Zhang Yang's appearance had affected the progress of the game to a certain extent. It might cause the second Beginner Dark Resistance Potion Recipe to appear in White Jade City prematurely!
If that was really the case, then it could only be said to be God's will!
"Warrior with low health, if there's nothing else, I'm going to go shopping with my cousin!" Shuiyan 'er said in the team chat.
Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Be careful, don't leave that poor sense of direction outside!"
The obedient Cher immediately gritted her teeth and rolled her eyes at Zhang Yang before going offline with Shuiyan 'er.
Baifa No.1 Middle School also said that he had spent too much time playing games these two days. He wanted to spend time with his wife and son, so he quickly went offline. Fatty Han didn't, but after calling out to Zhang Yang, he ran to find his foot washing city, Mei Mei.
Zhang Yang scolded her for valuing beauty over friendship. He shook his head and went to the auction house.
His bank account had long been filled with Basic Dark Resistance Potions. He had originally planned to stop selling them and wait for the players to reach Level 20. They would then move from Benga's Crypt to Mazawi's Lair to fight for their first set of equipment. Then, he would sell them while collecting materials to make potions.
But unexpectedly, he had now become the guild leader of Desert Dust and gained full authority over the guild storage!
In Miracle, as long as a guild was established, the system would gift a slot with 1,000 slots. If he wanted to expand the Warehouse, he would need to spend money to purchase it. The second column cost 1,000 Gold Coins. After that, the price would increase tenfold until it reached 1,000,000 Gold Coins. A guild could only have a maximum of ten warehouse slots.
Desert Dust's storage was filled with all sorts of things, like snacks, fish he had caught, tiger teeth, ores, all sorts of things! Zhang Yang shook his head and sent a message in the guild chat, telling the members to take away all the junk.
Ten minutes later, Zhang Yang changed the authority over the guild storage. Normal members only had the authority to "view", officials had the authority to "view" and "store", and the vice guild leader had the authority to "view", "store", and "take".
In the future, this warehouse could only be used to store equipment, potions, gems, and other valuable items. Members could use their guild points to buy them. The richness of the guild storage was a symbol of a guild's strength. When the members saw a column full of good items, especially items that they needed, they were naturally full of energy!
Zhang Yang spent another 1,000 Gold Coins to buy a second warehouse slot and set the authority to "view" it. Of course, the guild leader wouldn't be restricted.
Since he had another 1,000 slots, Zhang Yang naturally wanted to plunder Sky Blue Grass and Ginkgo Blossoms! Two days ago, because his bank was full, he stopped buying, so the price of these two herbs had slowly dropped. But now that he had interfered, the price instantly shot up again.
The majority of Alchemy players thought that this was an unscrupulous businessman trying to hype up the market. No matter how much the price changed, they wouldn't budge! With no one competing, Zhang Yang quickly bought a large amount of herbs and painstakingly made bottle after bottle of potions.
After buying up the two herbs in the auction house, Zhang Yang opened the auction house's search interface again and looked through the Alchemy and Forging recipes.
In terms of Alchemy, there were currently no recipes above Beginner level. However, there were a few Level 2 Whetstone recipes in the Forging section, the prices ranging from 100 to 300 Gold Coins.
The drop rate of the Level 2 Whetstone Recipe was extremely high. Even though it cost 100 Gold Coins, it was still extremely expensive. However, Zhang Yang was too lazy to wait. He casually bid for the cheapest Level 2 Whetstone Recipe available. After receiving it from his mailbox, he immediately went to school.
[Level 2 Whetstone] (Consumable)
Use: Grind on a weapon, increases damage by 20.
Although the increase wasn't huge, it was better than nothing. More importantly, this was the cheapest way to advance from Intermediate Forging to Advanced Forging.
Two Bronze Ingots were required to make a Level 2 Whetstone. Zhang Yang looked at the price in the Auction House and sent a message to the Professional Miner, "Are you free?"
After a while, the Professional Miner replied, "So it's you. I haven't contacted you for a few days. I thought you found another seller! Ha, I really didn't expect that you're actually a famous person on the First Pass Chart! "
Zhang Yang replied, "Not at all. I've been doing dungeons for the past few days and didn't have time to practice forging! I need a lot of bronze ingots. Do you have them? "
"Hmph, please don't look down on a professional miner!" The professional miner immediately replied. "How much do you want?"
Two Bronze Ingots were used to make a Whetstone. Raising 1000 Proficiency Points required 2000 Bronze Ingots, or 100 sets. Zhang Yang sent a message: "Okay, let's start with 100 sets!"
"Hiss —" The professional miner sent a series of ellipses and exclamation marks over. After a long time, he said, "Are you trying to make me break down every time? 100 stacks … Do you think they're iron ingots that can be found everywhere?! Bronze ores are Level 2 ores. Firstly, the spawn point is low. Secondly, there are monsters around … "
"Alright, alright, just say it. How many sets can you give me?"
"Hmph, it's lucky that it's me. If it were someone else, it would be good if they could get one or two stacks —"
"Stop! Stop! Don't flatter yourself anymore. How many sets do you have? "
"Seven sets!"
It's not even enough to fill the gaps between my teeth! Zhang Yang said, "Okay, mail it over! How much is a set? "
"Haha, we're old business. I won't cheat you. Two gold per set, how about that?"
It's slightly cheaper than the auction house! Zhang Yang sent a "Okay" and ended the call with the Professional Miner.
Although there was competition from Floater, the Thick Earth Round Shield was still in short supply. However, the price could not be raised. Zhang Yang tried to bid a fixed price of 1000 gold. However, after a day, it was finally sold at the highest price of 600 gold.
In the past two days, he had led a team to Benga's Crypt in Death Mode and obtained 5 rare Copper Ingots. Fatty's team also gave him the rare Copper Ingots that they dug up. In total, he had 11! After Zhang Yang sold it in the auction house, he took out 1000 gold and put it in the guild storage. It was set as repair fees for tanks and healers.
Zhang Yang was planning on leveling up and then going offline to eat when he received a friend request.
It was from the Overlord's guild leader, Modest Gentleman.
Zhang Yang thought for a moment and clicked "Accept".
"Haha, I was planning on inviting you to join our guild two days ago. I didn't think that Desert Dust would beat me to it!" Modest Gentleman did not use the private message, but instead used the voice communication device. "However, I'm not trying to slander you. Desert Dust is at most a third-rate guild. You're wasting your talent!"
Zhang Yang laughed and said, "Which guild didn't start off as a third-rate guild?"
In other words, did Tyrants become a super guild the moment it was established? Didn't you slowly climb up from a fourth-rate or fifth-rate guild?
Modest Gentleman laughed loudly and said, "I was planning on persuading you to give up on Desert Dust and come fight with us, but it looks like it's impossible now! Luckily, this isn't my main reason for looking for you. Otherwise, I would have really taken a huge blow! "
"Oh, Modest Leader, is there a bet?" Zhang Yang was excited.
Modest Gentleman couldn't help but choke. Thinking about the 20,000 gold he lost to Zhang Yang, he couldn't help but feel his heart ache! Even though players could open the gold exchange service when they reached Level 20, and as long as you had money, you didn't have to worry about not having enough gold. Who picked up money from the ground? Exchanging 20,000 gold cost him almost 160,000!
Even though the Overlord had sponsors behind them, they couldn't just throw their money away. In the end, this money was still Modest Gentleman's own pocket. How could he not feel his heart ache!
"It's not a bet!" Modest Gentleman forced a smile and said, "Just now, we fought Mazawi in Death Mode. It was quite an emotional experience!"
"Oh?"
"Leader Battlemaster, I have a rough understanding of your guild's situation. There are only five people who have reached Level 20. If you want to gather a Level 20 team of 20 people, you'll need at least three days! Moreover, even if you do that, you'll still need to accumulate equipment before you have the qualifications to fight Mazawi in Death Mode! "
"Could it be that you have a good suggestion, Guild Leader Thousand?"
"Haha, I do have a suggestion!" Modest Gentleman paused and said, "Your guild's five-man team is quite strong. The Overlord can also gather ten people with similar equipment. Why don't the two of us work together to take down Mazawi in Death Mode?"
He was anxious. In the Death Mode first palace battle, Ling Tian and Beauty Enraged had performed exceptionally well. They had already reached the fifth stage of the boss, but they were still stumbling in the third stage! If they didn't think of something, the Overlord would definitely lose!
Modest Gentleman thought about it and decided that only Zhang Yang and his team could help the Overlord turn the situation around! From his perspective, Battlemaster's team lacked people, and the Overlord needed top-tier experts. The two sides should be able to work together, and it would definitely be a win-win situation!
