Ji Nie's Dexterity instantly reached 12 points, his Attack Speed increased to 5 points, and his Movement Speed increased to 6 points. He was almost as agile as an Assassin of the same level.
"When I reach Level 3, my Dexterity will reach 20 points. This way, I can activate the hidden basic skills of the Dexterity system.”
Ji Nie looked at the attribute panel and began to look forward to it.
Ji Nie stretched her body and felt that she was much more agile than before. If she were to face Mayor Kate now, she would not be in such a sorry state.
If he could reach 20 points in Agility and activate the basic skill, Nimble Agility, his physical fitness would be awesome. He would be comparable to the martial arts masters in martial arts novels.
Then, he added 15 Free Mastery Points to One-handed Sword Mastery, leaving 5 points for backup. In an instant, One-handed Sword Mastery reached 20 points, and he advanced from Apprentice to Beginner Swordsman.
Damage dealt by One-handed Sword increased by 10%. He was still 30 Mastery Points away from advancing to Intermediate Swordsman.
As a Swordsman, if he wanted to become an expert with a sword, normal attacks were only the basics. Skills were essential. The more skills he learned, the more agile a Swordsman's combat would be, and the more damage he could unleash.
Ji Nie was an expert swordsman, and he had been reborn. With the Bone Spirit Ring, the next step to quickly level up was to learn a lot of swordsmanship skills. Only then would he be able to unleash the true abilities of a swordsman. Otherwise, how could he kill monsters efficiently if he only used normal attacks?
"I remember that there is a black market challenge in the trading area of Jade Plume Town. It seems that players who pass the challenge for the first time can obtain a Swordsman skill book.”
Ji Nie thought for a moment. Most skill books were dropped from level 3 to 5 monsters, and the drop rate was very low. At this stage, no player could farm those small monsters.
Obtaining other Swordsman Skill Books was very time-consuming, and he did not have the time to farm them. The only way to quickly obtain Skill Books in Jade Plume Town was through the Black Market Challenge.
Cui Yu Town Trade Area.
There were all kinds of shops on both sides of the street. There were potion shops, forging shops, bars, and so on. It was very prosperous, just like a small market.
However, Soaring Cloud had just been opened not long ago, and the players were all leveling up. They did not have time to experience the fun of Soaring Cloud, so the Trade Area was not at its busiest yet.
Only a small number of production players learned auxiliary professions here, such as enchantment, forging, potion, chef, engineering, alchemy, and so on.
"Buying herbs at a high price.”
"Don't come here to buy ores.”
"Sincerely purchasing high-level equipment, the price is negotiable. You can directly use the credits in the real world to purchase it.”
Many Workshop and Guild logistics staff had set up stalls on the streets of the Trade Area to purchase supplies and equipment.
Ji Nie didn't stop. He quickly walked toward the two-story building guarded by high-level goblins. The word 'black market' was written on the building. It was the dark area of Jade Plume Town, and it was an entertainment center built by greedy goblins.
Walking into the black market was the Goblin Auction House. Walking down the stairs of the cellar was two empty spaces. One was the Battle Arena, and the other was the Challenge Tournament.
At this moment, there were already a few players standing in the Challenger League, accepting the Goblin's challenge.
"Come on, you must succeed this time.”
"Come on, get rid of those gnomes."
A few players cheered for an Assassin player on the field. Their eyes were red, and they looked like crazy gamblers.
The Challenger League was a competition that tested players 'skills. In the 30-yard long and 10-yard wide area, all players' Attributes would drop to 10 points after entering the arena. Skills and equipment would be rendered useless.
They could only dodge or block the shots from the goblin muskets. If they could pass the finish line, they would win.
The Goblin gave three levels of challenges, namely Bronze, Silver, and Gold. Once the challenge was completed, it would refresh once every three days.
The requirement to participate was to pay 5 Copper Coins for Bronze, 5 Silver Coins for Silver, and 5 Gold Coins for Gold. The higher the level of the challenge, the better the reward. Sometimes, there would even be Dark-Gold Equipment.
If it was a player from Jade Plume Town who passed the challenge for the first time, even if it was a Bronze Award, it was almost the same as a Silver Award.
Gini remembered that in her previous life, a swordsman named Glimmer had passed the Bronze Prize Challenge in Jade Plume Town for the first time and obtained a rare skill book for swordsmen.
After a short while, the Assassin on the field was hit and fell 20 yards away, 10 yards away from the finish line.
"Damn it, you were so close. Do you still have money?”
"I will definitely pass the next time."
the male Assassin said after reviving.
A male Priest shook his head." Boss Shallow Water, we've given you all our money. We really don't have any more money."”
When Ji Nie heard the word 'shallow water,' he was surprised. He shifted his gaze to the assassin.
He was dressed in a black night-traveling outfit, and he was not tall. He was very skinny, like a monkey. Ji Nie found it hard to imagine that the tenth ranked assassin in Storm Kingdom, Shallow Water, was this monkey before him?
The assassin named Shallow Water shifted his gaze to Ji Nie and sized him up. He looked as if he had found his prey. He walked up to Ji Nie and smiled."Hello friend, my name is Qian Shui, the Assassin's Alliance's Assassin Captain. Lend me 5 Coppers and I'll return you 20 Coppers tomorrow.”
Shallow Water was unwilling to accept this failure. He was only 10 yards away from the finish line. He had already found some patterns. If he was given another chance, he would definitely pass.
Hence, he wanted to use the guild's name to intimidate Jines and make her lend him 5 Coppers.
The Assassin's Alliance was a very famous Guild in the virtual gaming world. Any veteran in the gaming world would know this name. Anyone who could become the captain of an Assassin was definitely a God.
Ordinary players would definitely offer 5 Coppers to the person whom many players admired. As for the repayment, there was no need for that.
"5 Coppers?"
Ji Nie thought for a moment and replied," I can borrow 5 Coppers, but I'll return 50 Coppers tomorrow.”
Shallow Water was surprised. This was different from what he had expected. He was the leader of the Assassin League, the famous Shallow Water, yet he was not being polite. Could it be that Ji Nie was a game rookie?
Ji Nie looked at the shallow water and asked,""Do you still want to borrow?"
"Borrow."
Shallow Water wanted to cry. The other players who saw him were all gods, but Ji Nie didn't react. However, when he thought of the generous reward, he was willing to accept 50 Coppers.
"This is 5 Coppers. Let's add each other as friends. Don't forget to return me 50 Coppers tomorrow.”
Jines traded the 60 Coppers she had earned from selling the necklace to Shallow Water for 5 Coppers. She did not forget to remind Shallow Water that he had to return the 50 Coppers.
After Qian Shui received the 5 Coppers, tears streamed down his face."Alright, I won't forget."
Jines didn't know what Shallow Water was thinking. After the transaction, she walked toward the goblin manager.
"Sir, time is money. What do you want?”
the Gnome manager said proudly.
"I want to participate in the Bronze Challenge."
Ji Nie handed over 5 Coppers.
The goblin manager shook the copper coins and nodded in satisfaction. He opened the wooden door of the challenge competition and let Jigne in.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a new challenger. Please welcome this brave swordsman.”
