Walking up to the tower and standing on the watchtower, Ji Nie could see the city's scenery. If he wasn't pressed for time, he would have enjoyed it for a while.
He looked around and didn't find anything special.
Just as Ji Nie was about to leave…
"Young adventurer, welcome to the Forgotten City.”
A white-bearded old man suddenly appeared. His voice was filled with wisdom and experience, which startled Ji Nie. He thought that some monster had appeared, but he let out a sigh of relief when he saw the yellow mark.
The Forgotten City?
Ji Nie was shocked when he thought of this famous city in Soaring Cloud.
The Forgotten City was once famous throughout the Soaring Heaven Continent, and there were countless Legend classes in the city. There was even the Demigod Sword Saint Wilbur, and even the Gods had to be wary of it.
It was a pity that he died and disappeared in the third Divinity's Bout, which became Ling Xiao's greatest regret.
"Respected old man, is there anything I can help you with?”
Ji Nie asked with a formal smile.
"Help?"
The white-bearded elder shook his head and smiled." No, I don't need help. I think you definitely want to become stronger!”
"I can help you, but are you willing to accept my test?”
"Of course, I'm willing to accept the test.”
Ji Nie was relieved. This was the clue to the Gravekeeper's Glory quest, so he didn't have to die and return to the city to lose his level and skill proficiency.
The old man nodded in satisfaction and said seriously,""I'll give you three choices. The first is Normal Difficulty. After passing it, you'll get a Yellow-Gold treasure chest!”
"For the second Hard difficulty, you can obtain an Earth-grade treasure chest. At the same time, depending on the completion rate, you can obtain additional rewards!”
"The third is Hell Mode. The reward is a heaven-tier treasure chest. At the same time, depending on the completion rate, you can obtain additional rewards.”
"Young adventurer, which one do you choose?”
The three options were each more difficult than the last, but the temptation was also very shocking. The six Level 10 Assassins chose the Hard Mode and obtained the Earth Treasure Chest, but they chose to hide the additional reward, which meant that the additional reward was better than the Earth Treasure Chest.
Ji Nie thought for a moment. As someone who had been reborn, he should have some courage and be brave enough to challenge others.
"Honorable old man, I choose Hell Mode.”
Ji Nie was confident that he could deal with this difficulty. If he could pass, it would be very important for his future development.
"Hahaha, young people are really motivated!”
"I admire you very much. Don't regret your choice.”
The old man laughed and disappeared without a trace.
System: Quest "Gravekeeper's Glory" accepted. Against 1000 monsters of the same level, kill 500 of them to pass. Time limit: 4 hours. Failure of the quest will result in a permanent decrease of 10 points in all attributes.
Attributes were the foundation of a class. If all attributes dropped by 10 points, the account would be useless.
"This punishment is too cruel."
Ji Nie looked at the countless spirit warriors that had emerged from the tower, and his scalp began to itch.
The countdown had already begun. There were only five seconds left before the monster's attack.
[Ghost Warrior](Common Monster) Level 2 HP 230
It was easy to deal with one, but facing a spirit warrior like Wang Yang, even Ji Nie became nervous.
Charging down directly was courting death. He would definitely be surrounded and killed. The only way was to fight one-on-one.
Ji Nie was very experienced in battles. He quickly ran down the stairs and stood on the narrow stairs.
This staircase could only allow two monsters to pass through at most. It was the best killing point. As long as they guarded the stairs, they could pass through.
Once the five seconds were up, all the spirit warriors went crazy. They all rushed into the tower and charged at Ji Nie without any regard for their lives.
However, the stairs were very narrow, and each of them blocked the other, allowing Ji Nie to easily face the two spirit warriors. Ji Nie was able to dodge the attacks of the warriors.
Thunder and Wind!
Slash!
Three bolts of lightning flashed, and within a 2*10-yard radius, all the Ghost Warriors suffered high damage. In an instant, the Ghost Warriors lost more than 60 HP. In addition to the Chop, the Ghost Warriors received 33 damage.
The first Ghost Warrior's HP was halved, and the dozens of Ghost Warriors behind it lost a quarter of their HP.
Previously, when he was facing a high-level monster, his Defense was very high, and the effects of Swift Thunder and Wind and Chop were greatly suppressed. Now that he was facing a monster of the same level, Swift Thunder and Wind's super strong AOE damage was displayed vividly.
The damage amplification effect of the Thunder and Wind Strike allowed Gini to kill the first spirit warrior with only five slashes.
In order to increase the speed of the attack, Ji Nie activated the dragon energy swirl again, and his attack speed increased again.
With the Damage Amplification effect, he could kill one in less than 3 seconds.
It was a pity that killing Ghost Warriors did not give EXP, but Skill Proficiency was 100% and would give 1 point.
Seeing the spirit warriors fall one by one and their skill proficiency increase continuously, Gini was overjoyed.
The NPCs probably would not have thought that a Level 2 Swordsman would use a super powerful AOE skill. He was the least afraid of human wave tactics and could easily dodge attacks in a 1v2.
If it had been any other player, they would have failed the quest, but he could complete it perfectly.
Two hours had passed, and the proficiency of Swift Thunder Wind had increased to 300 points, reaching Level 2. Its damage had increased from 130% to 135%, and its cooldown had decreased from 30 seconds to 28 seconds.
Chop had also increased to 426/600, just short of Level 3.
The leveling up of Swift Thunder and Wind to Level 2 had increased Ji Nie's farming speed once again. The Ghost Warriors fell one after another. There were only about 20 of them left, and there was still an hour and a half left.
After using Thunder and Wind, the last 20 or so Spirit Warriors fell.
"Well done, young man. This is your reward.”
The old man appeared again and looked at Ji Nie with a smile. He took out a heaven-tier treasure chest and a pitch-black longsword.
System: You have completed the quest " Gravekeeper's Glory ". You have received a heaven-tier treasure chest, an Archaic Magic Weapon, and the title " One Rider Against a Thousand ".
When using this title, all allies within a 30-yard radius will have their Attributes increased by 10%. At the same time, the player will receive an additional 5 Strength and 5 Endurance.
"The reward has been given. You can leave now.”
After saying that, the old man waved his hand gently.
Ji Nie's vision blurred. When he opened his eyes again, he was back in the square of Jade Plume Town.
Beep beep beep!
The system communication kept ringing, and the one who asked for communication was Hua Zi.
"Brother Nie, you finally picked up. Why couldn't I contact you before?”
"I'm one level behind the others. What should I do now?”
Hua Zi was very anxious, but he still spoke patiently because of Ji Nie's trust in him.
He had spent more than seven hours running. Now, the streets were filled with Level 1 players, and he was still Level 0. How could he catch up with such a gap?
No one wanted to form a party now. The minimum requirement for others was level 1. For level 0 rookies, they should just step aside.
"I'm sorry, I've been doing quests. Come to the central square, I'll help you level up.”
Ji Nie said apologetically.
The mission took more than five hours, and Soaring Cloud had been activated for more than eight hours. Many players had already reached Level 1, and if they were professional players, they might not be far from Level 2.
As someone who had been reborn, it was very easy to bring Hua Zi to level up. It would not be long before Hua Zi could catch up to professional players.
