Lin Xiaoxiao and the others left.
Ling Yi admired their choice. If it were him, he would never have done that. Wouldn't it be better to have someone powerful to rely on?
Is it uncomfortable for him to lie flat and win?
Ling Yi gave them all the high-level healing potions in his backpack, and also gave each of them two Shitou with coordinate markings.
This is a new use of the " Infinite Blink ★★★" skill that Ling Yi discovered.
Coordinates are marked on items; once an item is damaged, the coordinates will disappear.
Using this feature, if Lin Xiaoxiao and the others encounter danger, they can crush a Shitou and immediately Perception it, allowing them to Teleport to the scene instantly to provide assistance.
Watching Lin Xiaoxiao and the others leave, Ling Yi sighed and turned to the two-headed eagle beside him, saying, "Now you're the only one left to keep me company."
The two-headed eagle shook its grayish wings in response.
"Let's go, let's max out the progress in MU World first."
As Ling Yi spoke, he jumped directly onto the back of the two-headed flying eagle. The two-headed flying eagle cawed twice, flapped its wings violently, and soared into the sky.
With a body length of nearly three meters and a wingspan of five meters, it's a bit ugly, and its cry is unpleasant, but as I said, this thing can fly.
With this double-headed flying eagle, Ling Yi's mobility increased by more than ten times.
"Sigh, when will I be able to fly on my own?" Ling Yi muttered to himself, feeling the howling Gale around him.
He remains Obsession on this matter.
"There are wings in the MU World, right? How about we Summon a black hole and see if we can get some wings?"
"Forget it, let's focus on leveling up first. Wouldn't it be even better if the MU World could become its own dedicated dungeon world, just going in and grinding monsters?"
Soon, Flying Eagle led him to the first boss location.
"Bang!"
Flying Eagle descended from the sky with Ling Yi, landing directly in a mountain range full of strange rocks.
Ling Yi looked around. There was little green celestial matter here, but mostly Jian Yi- like stone forests.
Below the stone forest are countless dark cave entrances.
As Ling Yi appeared, countless centipedes crawled out of these holes, covering the entire area in the blink of an eye.
Among them was the largest centipede, which lay on a boulder, raised half its body, and looked in Ling Yi's direction.
This scene sent chills down Ling Yi's spine.
Although Ling Yi doesn't have trypophobia, this kind of scene would terrify anyone.
This has nothing to do with strength; it's just that there probably aren't many people who genuinely like centipedes.
At this moment, Ling Yi really wanted to give up on the BOSS here.
"You ugly thing, are you doing this on purpose?" Ling Yi roared at the two-headed flying eagle beside him.
"Caw caw!" The two-headed flying eagle cried out twice, its eyes full of schadenfreude. The next moment, it took flight and jumped onto a high rock.
It's obvious they just want to watch the show and enjoy the gossip.
It's true that forcing a 100% Affection and compelling a pet to accept you as its owner is possible, but there's no rule against pets betraying their owners, right?
That person may be ugly, but they're also wicked, hahaha!
Ling Yi's side has already clashed with the centipede Demonic Beast army.
Damn, ordinary second or third-tier centipedes are only a little over three meters long, but that BOSS was over twenty meters long.
The bright red shells make them look like cooked shrimp.
What the hell is this shrimp? Shrimp don't have that many legs!
Fortunately, the centipedes were quickly enveloped by the Magic Ball and the Black Dragon Wave effect, and a whole bunch of them were blown up.
To speed things up, Ling Yi simply threw the coordinates that had just been triggered by " Infinite Blink " next to the BOSS.
The next moment, Ling Yi appeared next to the centipede BOSS with a bunch of skill effects...
Five minutes later, Ling Yi grabbed the two necks of the two-headed flying eagle with one hand each and shook them rapidly like he was shaking ropes.
"You've gone too far! Are you trying to rebel? If we don't teach you a lesson this time, you won't know why the flowers are so red."
"Gah, gah-woo!"
The two-headed flying eagle was shaken senseless by Ling Yi's actions, and when Ling Yi released it, it acted as if it were drunk.
It took a step forward and fell to the ground, its two paws still kicking instinctively. After trying for a while without being able to get up, it simply lay flat.
Four eyes, four mosquito coils—at this moment, Flying Vulture felt he was about to die.
This owner is so damn irritable.
Was I wrong? They were just being a tiny bit mischievous.
Besides, we'll have to kill this centipede boss sooner or later anyway, so what's the difference?
It took about ten minutes for the flying eagle to recover. It sat listlessly next to Ling Yi, its eyes vacant, looking utterly hopeless.
Ling Yi, meanwhile, was inspecting the spoils of this expedition.
There is one skill book, " Deadly Poison Domain," an active skill that generates a poisonous mist within a certain range upon use.
The effects are unknown, but it's estimated that getting caught in the toxic fog wouldn't be pleasant.
Ling Yi used the two Brand Stone directly.
The haul was pretty good, especially since I got two Brand Stone, which is considered a great success.
As for equipment, there isn't any.
I don't know if it's a drop rate issue or something else, but Ling Yi has only gotten one piece of equipment since he started grinding monsters.
Of course, if we include the horn (God00009), then there are two items.
It seems that Lin Xiaoxiao and her group didn't bring any equipment with them.
Red City has a Treasure Artifact Pavilion that sells equipment crafted using materials from various Demonic Beast and Magical Beast.
Weapons, armor, helmets, boots, shoulder pads, and knee pads are all available.
But Lin Xiaoxiao and her friends couldn't afford that price.
Ling Yi had forgotten about this, since he didn't need the equipment; otherwise, Ling Yi would have equipped each of them with a set of high-level gear.
But for some reason, the monsters that Ling Yi and his group killed didn't drop any equipment, and they didn't even drop any materials.
Not only did Demon Core not explode, but none of it did either.
Perhaps, it is precisely because of the influence of data-driven rules that these have all been transformed into empirical values?
Who cares? Studying things beyond our control is pointless.
For the next two weeks, Ling Yi spent his time running around farming bosses.
Taibian College is located in Eastern Peak City, atop Eastern Peak Mountain.
Despite being called an academy, it feels more like a Daoist temple.
Built with blue bricks and tiles, the Entry leads to a huge square where only a handful of students, less than fifty in total, practice combat.
The square is surrounded by various retro-style buildings.
The dormitory building is on the east side, and the classrooms are on the west side; there are only five classrooms in total.
To the due north, there is a row of three-story buildings, and a main hall in the middle.
Wu Hong and Xiang Wanxiong, who had returned to Taibian College ten days ago, were chatting in the main hall at the entrance.
"Logically speaking, given Ling Yi and the others' strength, they should have arrived long ago," Wu Hong with some concern.
"Don't worry, there are still three months left. You should trust them, especially Ling Yi. His strength is comparable to the Fourth Realm expert, he'll be fine," Xiang Wanxiong comforted him.
"I'm afraid they'll get carried away and provoke those high-level Demonic Beast. I remember there's an Eighth Tier Demonic Beast in Eastern Ji City."
Xiang Wanxiong remained silent. Eastern Ji City was an abandoned city that had been conquered by monsters more than fifty years ago.
Among them was not only an Eighth Tier Demonic Beast, but also a red cesium-level Eighth Tier Fourth Pin black hole.
Today, Eastern Ji City has become an ocean of high-level monsters.
The key point is that Eastern Ji City is located on the middle section of the road between Red City and Eastern Peak City.
It can be said to be an inevitable route.
Just then, two extremely unpleasant "cawing" sounds suddenly rang out from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, a huge, strange bird descended from the sky and landed at the entrance of Taibian College.
" Fifth Tier Magical Beast, the Two-Headed Flying Eagle!" Wu Hong exclaimed, taken aback.
"How dare Fifth Tier Magical Beast come to Taibian College? Is it courting death?" Xiang Wanxiong said in an icy voice.
The two arrived at the door at lightning speed.
Just then, a familiar voice rang out.
"Wow, this is Taibian College? Wow, it's built on the summit of Eastern Peak Mountain!"
Only then did the two realize that standing behind the two-headed eagle was none other than Ling Yi.
" Ling Yi?" Wu Hong was overjoyed, but then frowned and asked, "Where are Lin Xiaoxiao and the others?"
" Old Wu? Lord Xiang? What are you doing at Taibian College?" Ling Yi didn't jump off the flying eagle; instead, he sat on its back.
Ling Yi's discovery of Taibian College was purely accidental, or rather, he was just passing by; he was very busy right now.
"You mean Lin Xiaoxiao and the others? Don't worry, they're fine. They're leveling up by fighting monsters right now."
"We were originally students of Taibian College, and I will remain your teacher in the future," Wu Hong explained.
He then asked curiously, "Did you tame this two-headed eagle? How did you do that?"
Whether it's Demonic Beast or Magical Beast, there's no possibility of taming or subduing it.
Humans have tried countless methods, including domestication from infancy, but none of them have worked.
Their hostility towards humans is instinctive.
But what they saw before them shattered their understanding once again.
"Just beat them up, it's that simple!" Ling Yi said matter-of-factly.
Wu Hong and Xiang Wanxiong exchanged a glance, both unsure of what to say.
"Are you sure this two-headed eagle will completely obey your commands?"
Ling Yi slapped the two-headed eagle on the head, causing the eagle to look at Ling Yi with a wronged expression.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine. Oh, by the way, I have to go now!"
After Ling Yi finished speaking, he patted the back of the flying eagle, which flapped its wings and soared into the sky.
Only Wu Hong and Xiang Wanxiong remained, staring at each other in bewilderment.
No, you're just leaving like that? You're already at the college gate, aren't you going to enroll?
Ling Yi is currently busy applying the Brand Stone; enrollment and such are minor matters.
Another ten days have passed, but the Brand Stone are still not all collected, and the progress in the MU World has only reached 75%.
You can get about ten Brand Stone per day.
However, as the progress increases, the number of Brand Stone required also increases.
Initially, one imprint stone increases the effect by 1%. After reaching 10%, two stones increase the effect by 1%. And after reaching 70% or higher, it takes 32 Brand Stone to increase the effect by 1%.
Based on this ratio, Ling Yi needs 32x5 + 64x10 + 128x10 + 256x10 = 4660 more.
Hmm? Is that how it's calculated?
It doesn't matter, they're pretty much the same anyway.
With so many Brand Stone, and assuming a drop rate of around 20%, Ling Yi would need to defeat nearly 25,000 bosses?
That's a whopping 25,000!
Are there that many bosses? Yes, but how much time would that take?
Ling Yi is getting desperate. He can only kill about 60 bosses a day, and as all the bosses within a thousand kilometers are killed, his efficiency in killing bosses will decrease further.
After all, it takes time for the two-headed flying eagle to find the boss.
Even if you can consistently kill 60 bosses a day, it would still take... over 400 days to kill 25,000 bosses?
"No, we need to think of a way. Ideally, we should find a boss lair, one that keeps spawning bosses."
Does such a place exist? Certainly not.
Otherwise, Blue Star would probably have collapsed long ago.
The fact that Ling Yi doesn't have one doesn't mean he can't create one.
