A Frenzied Grind, Guilds Clash

Of course, Zhang Mingzhen had experienced poverty and could understand these people's actions.

He just couldn't stand their over-the-top performance—he'd been fooled by it for years.

It was only later that I realized he was all talk and no action, his mind was always on business.

Upon seeing Zhang Mingzhen arrive, these people immediately fled, exposing him to the flying BOSS.

Zhang Mingzhen looked up and saw a string of information appear:

[Bloodthirsty Vulture King (Level 47) Silver Rank Boss]

[Intelligence: 1503]

[Physical Defense: 1774]

[Magic Defense: 1840]

[Blood Rain, Bloody Wind]: "Attacks inflict Weak Healing and Deadly Poison effects, reducing the target's healing received by 80%, and each spell damage deals additional poison damage equal to the amount of poison damage."

The world boss, exceeding level 45, was the highest-level flying Warcraft he had ever encountered.

Now it has completely broken free from the constraints of the ground, standing tall and three stories high.

No wonder it was difficult for tens of thousands of people to deal with.

Keep in mind that this was an army of ten thousand men, yet it was still a drop in the ocean against such a flying Warcraft.

It's like a group of rabbits trying to take down an elephant; they're not even as threatening as ants.

The feathers on its abdomen swelled violently, as if it were gathering some terrifying power.

A pair of giant wings whipped up a gale, carrying sand and stones as it swept in. With a piercing shriek, the vulture king launched a fierce attack on Zhang Mingzhen.

Zhang Mingzhen immediately summoned the Azure-Scaled Dragon Python, which leaped onto its back and soared into the sky.

The vulture king flapped its wings and gave chase, and the two figures disappeared into the clouds in the blink of an eye.

"President, they've all flown away... Are we just supposed to wait here?" "Longtu Tengchong," who had miraculously survived, asked in a low voice.

"Just leave one team here to keep watch."

"Even a city siege couldn't hold him back, so how could a mere leader monster be an obstacle?"

"Everyone else, retreat immediately." A hint of envy and jealousy flashed in Dragon Diagram Frenzy's eyes.

"If he hadn't shown up in time, we would have suffered heavy casualties."

"Report to the finance department and prepare a generous gift for 'Chongxing'."

"Although we didn't obtain the items we expected on this trip, those vulture eggs were a pleasant surprise."

"Return to the city now!"

Subsequently, many players from Dragon Map withdrew.

Thankfully, this is just a game, and players have their own inventory; otherwise, logistical issues alone could waste several hours.

It's simply impossible to retreat on a whim.

As everyone else left, Zhang Mingzhen led the flying leader monster to an open meadow on his own.

The area is sparsely littered with gravel and vegetation, making it a perfect place to unleash his full potential and test the new techniques he learned at level thirty-five.

"Thorn Entanglement +3: Summons Thorns to bind the target, forcibly immobilizing them for three seconds, during which time they deal spell damage equal to 3.5 times the target's intelligence per second."

"Cooldown time: 5 seconds; Spirit power cost: 150 points"

This is the Priest's first control skill, which can forcibly control the opponent, making it perfect for dealing with flying Warcraft like this.

"Thorn Entanglement, rise!"

As Zhang Mingzhen uttered a word unconsciously, a dark green thorny vine suddenly shot out from under the Vulture King's feet, instantly locking him firmly in place.

It deals a massive 8500 points of damage per breath!

As soon as the three-second imprisonment period ended, he immediately followed up with a new skill, "Eagle Beak Impact," a burst of energy that violently blasted the flying leader backward, causing massive damage.

Zhang Mingzhen noticed that the two skills were linked together quite well.

This perfectly forms a series of offensives.

The vulture king thus became the most frustrated leader.

Throughout the entire battle, he was unable to display any of his skills before being bound and relentlessly bombarded until he perished.

"Ding! Congratulations, player, Gold Coin experience points have increased by 5, you have obtained [Wings of Soaring Flight], and you have obtained the 'Vulture King Incubating Egg'."

[Vulture King Incubating Egg (Incubating): The egg laid by the ferocious Vulture King, which can be tamed.]

After a moment's thought, Zhang Mingzhen decided to sell it.

After all, he already had the Azure-Scaled Dragon Python by his side, both of which were flying mounts, so he didn't need to raise a second one.

Of course, the buyer is also negotiable.

He thought of his previous experience in the Illusion Realm.

These powerful forces are all cunning and ruthless, and could betray you at any moment.

When Zhang Mingzhen sells items, he should consider establishing a system of checks and balances.

Just like the Ying Kingdom, follow the path of the Ying Kingdom, leaving Ying Kingdom with nowhere to go.

When it comes to checks and balances, the Ying Kingdom are the best teacher.

Of course, they also went too far, and in the end, their attempts to maintain balance isolated themselves.

Moreover, the monsters hatched from this egg largely inherit the Vulture King's offensive techniques.

For him, it was somewhat redundant, and the abilities of the Azure-Scaled Dragon Python were more practical and useful.

"You did a good job killing monsters just now, continue killing monsters here."

He spoke a word to the Azure-Scaled Dragon Python beside him, without caring whether it understood or not.

We can sell the egg when the opportunity arises, or we can keep it as a bargaining chip with powerful forces; either way is fine...

After returning to Shuangyue Town, Zhang Mingzhen responded to the message from "Dragon Diagram Frenzy" in his friend list as he headed towards the blacksmith shop.

In the past two days, he explored the Secret Realm of the Monster Altar again and obtained two more prefix Spirit Stone.

We've now accumulated four, enough to activate the third set effect.

However, you need to find the craftsman in the blacksmith's shop to unlock it.

"Look, it's Chongxing- Cheater!"

"Quick, take a screenshot! His entire outfit must be high-quality silver, right? It looks incredibly valuable."

"Damn, he's showing off just because he has a talent. Why don't I have one?" someone said sarcastically.

"There's nothing we can do, we're just blessed with natural talent."

As soon as Zhang Mingzhen entered the blacksmith shop, he was recognized by a group of players.

These days, most players haven't gotten their gear through gameplay, so it's common for them to buy temporary items from shops.

Many new players will choose to exchange some currency to arm themselves before venturing into the wilderness for training.

"A master like this buying equipment from a shop? Is there some hidden mechanism here?"

"Look, he's gone into the backyard with the craftsman."

"Is there anything you can't say in front of us?"

After talking with the craftsman, the two went to the backyard.

Zhang Mingzhen took out the equipment that needed to be prefixed, along with the prefix Spirit Stone, and handed them to the blacksmith named "Wang Gangqiang".

After the opponent's initial forging, a system prompt appeared, listing three prefixes to choose from:

"Accuracy: Hit rate increased by 10%"

"Fatal: There is a 10% chance of triggering a critical hit when using a skill."

"Chain Attack: After triggering Combo, there is a 10% chance to trigger another Combo."

Leaving aside the first point, magic skills don't inherently have a hit rate issue, as they are automatically locked. Hit rate is something that physical classes need to consider.

After deliberating between the second and third options for a moment, Zhang Mingzhen finally chose "Fatal" to maximize his burst damage.

After all, a "chain attack" requires a second trigger based on a "Combo," and his own Combo is not high to begin with, so achieving multiple Combo is even more difficult.

Multiple Combo are also easily interrupted.

However, critical hits will not be interrupted.

Now that he had some free time, he planned to continue searching for flying leaders, following the directions previously provided by the Dragon Diagram Guild, so as to gather the feathers needed to forge wings as soon as possible.

After Zhang Mingzhen left the blacksmith shop, he overheard some players chatting there.

"We're going to hunt monsters, why are you buying these peach wood swords here?"

"I didn't want to either, but that place was really creepy, it gave me the creeps."

"What are we men afraid of? They're just a bunch of zombies. We'll just go up and chop them down! Brothers, follow me and wipe out this Desolate Village!"

Are these players now able to venture into the Desolate Village area for training?

The progress is not slow.

He suddenly remembered that his clone, the "Flower Spirit," was still being leveled up and accumulating experience in the wild, right in the territory of the Desolate Village. He would take it back when he had some free time and find another place to settle it.

By the way, that newly acquired detoxifying agent can come in handy in that Desolate Village!

He immediately took out a set of detoxifying agents and put them up for auction.

Now, with the emergence of superpowered individuals, the competition for higher levels within the God's Domain has become increasingly fierce.

After all, the higher the level, the more likely one is to master extraordinary abilities in reality.

This alone is enough to drive everyone crazy.

At this moment, Gao Linzhi was also scanning the crowd.

Their extraordinary abilities are actually granted entirely by the technological system of this world.

For example, fire, ice, healing... these so-called superpowers are actually all effects of quantum mechanics.

When in doubt, consult quantum mechanics.

In fact, the microscopic laws of quantum mechanics have many similarities to Mystic System Skill.

For example, it is not measurable, Teleportation, or discontinuous, but rather presents a series of discrete State Change.

Electron probability cloud, with huge voids between matter.

This is because there is a huge void between the atomic nucleus and the outer shell of the atoms that make up matter.

He controls the core code of the Skyfall Game, and with just a little manipulation, he can use the world's top technology to simulate all sorts of extraordinary abilities.

For example, high-speed regeneration, resurrection, or skills like fire, lightning, and steel Steel Bone.

At this very moment.

Many top players have already broken through level 20 and are beginning their exploration of the zombie- Desolate Village.

For example, the regular team known as "Datou Datou" also changed locations and decided to go to the Desolate Village area to clear out wild monsters.

"They're all level 20 monsters, why don't we go farm the wolves? This place is creepy and scary!"

The usually taciturn "Silent Black Sheep" has been muttering to himself ever since he stood at the entrance to the Desolate Village.

"That Doll didn't say a word, but you keep going on and on. Are you even a man?"

"The zombies here are on par with wolves, but they move more slowly and are more densely packed."

"More and more people are stealing monsters over at the Wild Wolves, so as long as you're careful not to get infected with the corpse poison here, you can actually get more experience than at the Wild Wolves."

"If you think this zombie is ugly, and others think it's ugly too, then there's less competition. If you want to seize the opportunity presented by superpowered individuals, you have to endure hardships that others can't!" one team member retorted.

"Be careful, everyone. I've heard that once you're infected with corpse poison, it's very difficult to cure with ordinary treatments. Some people have already lost levels because of it."

"I wonder where we can get the antidote."

"Datou Datou" looked around while reminding his teammates.

"Look at the auction house! That guy has a set of antidotes Cheater, maybe they'll work on this corpse poison! Let's grab one and try it!" A team member noticed the Poisons that Zhang Mingzhen had just put up for sale while browsing the auction house.

To be honest, if it were Gao Linzhi, he wouldn't put something like this on the market—he doesn't lack game currency right now.

Selling this kind of thing only creates more competitors for yourself.

Other players also gradually discovered the uses of the poison, and the potions that Zhang Mingzhen put up for sale were sold out in the blink of an eye.

"Captain, we're really not afraid of poisoning anymore after using the medicine. If we had known about this before, we wouldn't have been so worried."

And at this time...

The members of the Hero Alliance had entered the Desolate Village earlier and were already deep inside, grinding monsters.

The zombies there are of a higher level.

They originally wanted to book the entire venue, but with so many players already, they couldn't go too far.

Especially since supernatural abilities have emerged in real life, it wouldn't be good if you offended some powerful individual and ended up getting into an offline duel.

"Look, what's that flower floating up ahead? It looks like Priest- type skill... Boss, doesn't it look like the flower that Chongxing summoned when we were defending the city?"

A player from the Hero Alliance noticed the Flower Spirit left behind by Zhang Mingzhen.

"War Sky - Steel Bone" stared at it for a while, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it."

"I've seen his skills; they only restore health and mana, and have no offensive capabilities."

"But that flower in front... if I'm not mistaken, it's fighting a zombie?"

As everyone looked over, they saw that the flower not only continued to attack the surrounding zombies, but also moved to another location on its own after clearing out an area.

However, after checking the system ID, it displays. "Chongxing- clone."

This proves that it was indeed Zhang Mingzhen's pet.

"Priest have this kind of skill? Has anyone heard of it?"

"Never heard of that. None of the Priest I know can be in two places at once."

"Could this be an advanced version of that previous healing skill?"

"Oh no, it's coming this way!"

The cloned Flower Spirit swept through the crowd and moved towards the edge of the village. Players encountered along the way all thought they were seeing things—a flower that could attack and walk?

Zhang Mingzhen looked at Flower Spirit, who had returned to his side, and then took her back into his body.

All the experience gained during this period came from Flower Spirit's accumulated knowledge.

He remembered there was a Spider Mountain nearby, where the monsters were around level 30, which was perfect for Flower Spirit to level up now.

So he ignored the many people who came to inquire and left directly.

Ever since the "Dragon Diagram Guild" brought back those vulture eggs, they have been figuring out how to hatch them.

"President, how about we try incubating eggs in a greenhouse?"

"The location where these eggs were found was also warmer than outside, so perhaps we can simulate that environment."

"But the incubation period is completely unclear. Should we start our plan to select elite flight units now?"

At that moment, a player named "Clucking Chicken" rushed into the meeting room carrying a vulture egg:

"President, I've made a new discovery!"

"Clucking Chicken" is a Priest is passionate about exploring all kinds of gameplay. He usually loves to tame Warcraft in the God's Domain world. He knows the monsters in each map like the back of his hand and is well-known among players, jokingly called "Pet Expert".

He excitedly reported to "Dragon Diagram Frenzy": "Guild Master, after repeated testing, I found that these eggs are extremely resilient and can withstand even ordinary attacks."

"If you use an attack skill on it, a health bar will appear and then decrease."

"I tried using healing skills, and I was actually able to revitalize its life force! Look at its current state."

[Bloody Vulture Egg (Incubation Period): Bloodthirsty Vulture egg, tamable, activity being activated...]

"Great! Finally, there's progress! No matter what I did before, there was no response."

"So we need to use Priest skills on them? Quickly notify Tengchong and send over a few Priest!"
