Forbidden Land of the Light Tribe.
Zhang Yue, accompanied by his two minions, the Skeleton King and a Skeleton Warrior, was reaping one Light Dragon Knight after another.
The vast valley was filled with countless flying dragons.
Who knew how long it would take to kill them all?
Fortunately, the mission duration was ten days, so there was plenty of time.
Mission requirement: During the mission, you are not allowed to leave the Forbidden Land of the Light Tribe map. However, the Forbidden Land of the Light Tribe can temporarily serve as Zhang Yue’s login and logout point.
So, Zhang Yue logged off at noon to have lunch and then logged back in to continue the dragon slaughter.
The Dragon Knights here were not just archers; there were also mage knights and sword knights.
Different knights wielded different abilities.
Luckily, Zhang Yue had already completed his second profession change, allowing him to handle the various types of Dragon Knights with ease.
If he had entered here before his second profession change, even Zhang Yue wouldn’t have been able to deal with these level 35 monsters, which were the pinnacle of the Fourth World!
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Before he knew it, it was six in the evening.
Zhang Yue didn’t feel hungry, but his storage space only had some health potions left, and he was out of mana potions.
The consumption of S-rank skills was simply too high!
Even with the Necromancer Set’s [Skill Consumption -70] effect, Zhang Yue couldn’t withstand the massive mana cost of 150-200 per S-rank skill!
For Zhang Yue, who relied on skills for burst damage, running out of mana was more deadly than running out of health!
Although he couldn’t go back to the Dark Hall to resupply, this didn’t pose a problem for Zhang Yue.
After logging off, Zhang Yue used the “Are You Full?” app on his phone to order 200 bottles of [Advanced Special Mana Potions] from a nearby pharmacy.
In the Fourth World, the price of advanced instant mana potions in the pharmacy was 50 copper coins per bottle.
According to the Fourth World’s silver coin exchange rate, that was about 50 yuan.
The same level of potions in real-world pharmacies cost twice as much as those in the Otherworld, but their recovery effect was also stronger!
The advanced instant mana potions from the Otherworld could instantly restore 800 mana points.
Meanwhile, the advanced special mana potions crafted by the Alchemists in Coastal City could restore 20% + 1000 mana points and provide an uninterrupted 1% mana recovery per second for 10 seconds!
Expensive, but effective!
Anyway, Zhang Yue wasn’t short of money for now.
The one million yuan Liu Yao had given him still had 700,000 left.
Moreover, just now, Zhang Yue had sold over a thousand sets of various level 2-3 materials he had gathered recently in the Otherworld Marketplace. People from some pharmacies and equipment shops in Coastal City had bought them all, along with some miscellaneous equipment he didn’t need, netting him an easy 60,000 yuan!
While he was at it, Zhang Yue ordered some takeout from “Are You Full?”
Twenty minutes later, both the takeout and the potions arrived. After eating, Zhang Yue logged back in with the potions.
He returned to the Forbidden Land of the Light Tribe to continue the dragon slaughter!
The difficulty of this mission was not just about killing ordinary Dragon Knights.
Occasionally, there would be one or two lord-level Dragon Knights and giant dragons!
Fortunately, Zhang Yue was strong enough to face level 35 lord Dragon Knights without fear.
He kept hoping to use Soul Harvest to turn a lord-level giant dragon into a pet.
But he never succeeded.
Zhang Yue allocated all the experience he gained to the Dark Skeleton King, and by the end of the day, the Skeleton King had leveled up from 25 to 26!
To complete the unique hidden mission [Glory of the Dark Tribe] as quickly as possible and see what kind of top-tier reward he could get, Zhang Yue entered all-night mode.
From 7 PM to 7 AM the next day!
Twelve hours of slaughter exhausted the 200 bottles of mana potions Zhang Yue had bought for 20,000 yuan!
By then, the Skeleton King had reached level 28!
Zhang Yue couldn’t count how many Guardian Dragon Knights he had killed, but by rough estimation, he had only cleared about 10% of the enemies in this forbidden land!
From noon yesterday to this morning, only 10%.
This mission would be impossible for any other professional to complete within ten days!
Even Zhang Yue could barely manage it!
After logging off, Zhang Yue collapsed into bed and slept.
He woke up at noon.
“Time to buy more potions.”
Zhang Yue opened the “Are You Full?” app and was about to place an order when he suddenly remembered: Liu Yao often bragged about his epic-grade Alchemist father and how their family owned three of the largest pharmacies in Coastal City!
Contacting him might get him a better deal on potions.
Although Zhang Yue wasn’t short of money, he still had a brother in the hospital who urgently needed money, so saving where he could made sense.
With this in mind, Zhang Yue sent a Feixin message to Liu Yao: “What’s the price for your family’s advanced potions?”
“Do you want regular special potions or instant special potions?”
“Instant.”
“Instant health recovery 100, instant mana recovery 120!”
Seeing the price list Liu Yao sent, Zhang Yue couldn’t help but curse: “Damn, your family’s prices are 20% higher than the market rate!”
Liu Yao chuckled: “Quality assurance! Thirty-year-old brand!”
“Is there a difference in the effects of advanced potions?”
Zhang Yue finally understood why Liu Yao’s family was so wealthy.
At this moment, Liu Yao said: “But Brother Yue, if you need it, I can give you a 30% discount!”
“After all, it’s my dad’s business. If I gave it away for free, he’d kill me.”
“Alright, give me 2000 bottles of advanced instant mana potions.”
“How many? 2000??” Liu Yao was stunned: “Brother Yue, are you eating potions for meals?”
At the discounted price, Zhang Yue transferred the money to Liu Yao.
Just like ordering takeout, he sent his address to Liu Yao.
After calculating, Zhang Yue muttered: “2000 bottles should be enough to complete this mission.”
Meanwhile, at the Liu Family Pharmacy in Coastal City.
Watching the company staff process orders, Liu Yao asked Li Xiaoyao beside him: “Why did you tell me not to give Brother Yue a freebie?”
“If I have to look at my dad’s face for such a small matter, wouldn’t I be a disgrace as the Young Master Liu?”
Li Xiaoyao adjusted his silver-framed glasses and said: “It’s because you’ve given Zhang Yue too much. Without pressure, he has no motivation.”
“If you want him to join our Supreme Guild, you have to give him some pressure, make him short of money, and let him understand that joining our guild will make him rich.”
Hearing this, Liu Yao suddenly realized: “Xiao Li, you’re really my good assistant!”
With that, Liu Yao immediately called the company finance department: “Reduce Li Xiaoyao’s monthly salary by 10,000.”
Li Xiaoyao: “???”
Liu Yao laughed: “Now do you feel the pressure and motivation? Work hard, Xiao Li, and I’ll give you a 2000 raise next month!”
Li Xiaoyao: “…”
Just as they were talking.
Suddenly, a guild member hurriedly ran up to them, reporting an urgent situation:
“Guild Leader, our guild members in the Fourth World have been attacked by a group of unknown professionals, and the losses are severe!”
“What?” Liu Yao was furious: “Who dares to touch my Supreme Guild members?”
“Gather everyone in the guild and log in!”
Meanwhile, on the other side.
At the Mist Rain Pavilion Guild headquarters in Coastal City, the Su Family Building.
With the help of her sister Su Jin Ya, Su Jinyan was holding a meeting with several elite guild members, discussing preparations for the upcoming professional competition.
At that moment, a message popped up in the guild chat—
[Mist Rain Pavilion, Xiao Zhan]: “Brothers, we’ve been attacked at the Dark Camp, and all ten of us were killed!”
[Mist Rain Pavilion, God King]: “What? Who did it?”
[Mist Rain Pavilion, Xiao Zhan]: “There were many of them, and their damage was explosive. We were instantly killed and couldn’t see clearly!”
[Mist Rain Pavilion, Qingtian]: “We were also attacked at the Black Dragon Nest north of the Light Hall, and two squads were wiped out!”
Seeing these messages, Su Jinyan frowned: “Today’s meeting is over. Emergency situation, everyone log in immediately!”
