Roar~
Accompanied by a soft, baby-like cry, a small black dragon, about the size of a one-year-old infant, emerged from the summoning rift!
It flapped its wings twice but couldn’t take off, stumbling and falling to the ground.
“Roar~”
The little dragon looked at its master, Zhang Yue, with its big, round eyes, seemingly asking for help.
Zhang Yue walked over and picked up the little dragon.
[Dark Hatchling] (Physical Type · Common Grade)
[Master: Zero] (Bound)
[Type: Ranged DPS]
[Loyalty: Infinite]
[Level: 0] (Experience Points 0/100)
[Strength 6/Physical Attack: 7] (Growth 12 stars)
[Endurance 5/Physical Defense: 4] (Growth 7 stars)
[Endurance 5/Magic Defense: 3] (Growth 6 stars)
[Stamina 8/Health Points: 80] (Growth 10 stars)
[Spirit 3/Mana: 15] (Growth 5 stars)
[Skills: None]
[Description: Descendant of the Dark Tribe’s progenitor dragon mother, it carries the noble bloodline of dragon royalty and will eventually become the king of the Dark Tribe, protecting its master…]
Just like the BOSS-level Skeleton King, this Dark Hatchling, though only Common Grade, already had the strength of an Elite Grade creature in terms of total growth stars!
Zhang Yue originally wanted to capture a Lord or BOSS-level dragon in the Fourth World, but he had never succeeded.
Unexpectedly, the reward for the unique hidden quest [Glory of the Dark Tribe] fulfilled his wish!
So, in the Fourth World, Zhang Yue had another task: to level up the little black dragon!
Before that, Zhang Yue used the feed he had collected from killing monsters to bring about an evolution for the Dark Hatchling.
It devoured ten Common Grade pets.
“Ding~ Congratulations! Your pet [Dark Hatchling] (Common Grade) has evolved into [Dark Battle Dragon] (Elite Grade)! It has learned the Elite Grade pet special effect [Black Dragon Bloodline] (lv1)!”
It devoured ten Elite Grade pets.
“Ding~ Congratulations! Your pet [Dark Battle Dragon] (Elite Grade) has evolved into [Apocalyptic Black Dragon] (Rare Grade)! It has learned the Rare Grade pet special effect [Heaven and Earth Destruction] (lv2)! [Black Dragon Bloodline] upgraded to lv2!”
In an instant.
The little black dragon before Zhang Yue transformed into a towering Dark Dragon, standing five to six meters tall!
An unparalleled aura of the Dark Tribe’s royal bloodline emanated from the Apocalyptic Black Dragon.
Roar…
The deep dragon breath was exhilarating!
Zhang Yue checked the two special effects of the Apocalyptic Black Dragon.
[Black Dragon Bloodline] (lv2): Increases all attributes of the Apocalyptic Black Dragon by 30%.
[Heaven and Earth Destruction] (lv2): Each kill by the Apocalyptic Black Dragon grants a 10% damage boost for 10 minutes, stacking up to five times.
Both effects were very strong.
Moreover, this was just the strength of a Rare Grade lv2.
When the Apocalyptic Black Dragon evolves to Epic, Legendary, or Mythic Grade, these effects will be even stronger!
So, Zhang Yue led the Dark Skeleton King and the Apocalyptic Black Dragon to a level 35 wild area.
A level 35 Light Tribe Dragon, with 1400 attack, 700 defense, and high health.
Zhang Yue’s 360 penetration reduced the Light Tribe Dragon’s defense to 340.
He locked onto a dragon and launched his attack.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Heavenly Fire + Icebound World + Thunderous Might!
-4920!
-6572! Critical hit!
-5156!
Three S-rank skills hit the dragon, accumulating damage and instantly killing it!
Roar…
With a mournful cry, the Light Tribe Dragon fell from the sky, dead before it even saw who attacked it.
He gained 360 experience points and 15 copper coins.
At level 35, each of Zhang Yue’s S-rank skills consumed 200 mana on average!
But with the [Dominion Power] effect of the [Glory · Dark Commander] equipment (restoring 50 mana per second), the 600+ mana he had just used was restored in just over ten seconds!
He didn’t even need mana potions!
After waiting for a skill cooldown, Zhang Yue launched another three-shot combo, easily killing another dragon.
Soloing wasn’t enough.
Zhang Yue had the Skeleton King use [Infinite Taunt] to attract the aggro of three dragons simultaneously, then used the S-rank [Shadow Sword Array] to bind them.
Seizing the opportunity, Zhang Yue used Hell Judgment for an area attack, combining it with other single-target skills to finish them off.
In moments, he easily harvested three dragons at once!
Zhang Yue’s strength had already dominated the Fourth World.
While Zhang Yue was on a dragon-slaying spree.
In a group chat named “Zhe Ning F4,” Lin Tian sent a message: “@Zhang Yue, how far are you from the Dark Camp? Our people are being attacked by the Infinity Guild over there!”
“Alright, I’m on my way.”
After a pause, Zhang Yue asked, “Who changed the group name?”
Lin Tian: “@Liu Yao.”
Liu Yao: “(Grinning)”
Zhang Yue closed Feixin and checked the map, frowning slightly.
From his current location, it would take at least ten minutes to walk to the Dark Camp!
By the time he got there, the God of War Guild members might already be wiped out by the Infinity Guild!
“I need a faster way.”
As he spoke, Zhang Yue suddenly turned to look at the Apocalyptic Black Dragon.
Meanwhile, in the lv32 Dark Camp.
Eight level 32 second-class change Professionals from the Infinity Guild were chasing and killing a group of over ten level 29 first-class change Professionals from the God of War Guild.
Like cats playing with mice, the Infinity Guild pursuers had mocking smiles on their faces.
“Look at them running, how pathetic!”
“Haha! Don’t kill them too quickly, let’s have some fun!”
Just as they spoke.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Countless dark red death rays suddenly descended from the sky, covering the eight Infinity Guild Professionals on the ground, causing a series of 1500 damage points to jump from their heads.
In moments.
Eight beams of white light shot up from the Dark Camp.
In mid-air, an Apocalyptic Black Dragon flew through the white light.
On the ground, Zhang Yue opened Feixin.
“@Lin Tian, settle the bill.”
Lin Tian: “Done so quickly?”
Soon, Lin Tian transferred ten thousand yuan to Zhang Yue in the group chat.
Zhang Yue accepted the money, mounted the Apocalyptic Black Dragon, and flew away from the Dark Camp.
Inside the camp, countless scattered Professionals who witnessed this scene were wide-eyed.
“Did someone just ride a dragon away?”
“An NPC?”
“Bullshit! It was clearly a Professional!”
“Damn! Riding a dragon? A Dragon Tamer?”
Zhang Yue was incredibly busy after that.
Infinity Guild’s assassins were everywhere.
Wherever they appeared, Zhang Yue would go.
Infinity Guild hunted the three major guilds, and Zhang Yue hunted the Infinity Guild!
Fortunately, the Apocalyptic Black Dragon provided Zhang Yue with great mobility!
The only downside was that each time he reached a location, he had to dismount to attack.
He couldn’t attack directly from the dragon’s back, which was a bit of a letdown!
Of course, if he could do that, melee Professionals wouldn’t stand a chance against Zhang Yue.
By the end of the day, the three major guilds were almost unscathed, while the Infinity Guild suffered heavy casualties!
Almost all their members were killed by Zhang Yue, without a single one spared.
And Zhang Yue’s efforts paid off.
Because all Infinity Guild Professionals were fully equipped with gold gear!
According to the rule that White Names have a 50% chance to drop equipment upon death, and Red Names and Gray Names always drop equipment.
By the end of the day, Zhang Yue had collected over forty pieces of equipment from Infinity Guild members!
All were level 25-30, 2-star quality gold gear, each worth at least 30,000 on the market!
Total value exceeded a million!
In addition, Zhang Yue collected a total of 170,000 in protection fees from the Supreme and God of War guilds!
The money came so fast it was almost unbelievable!
In the group chat, Liu Yao was already complaining about being broke: “I don’t even have money for dinner, Yue, you’re too ruthless!”
Zhang Yue transferred 20 yuan to Liu Yao in the group chat: “I’ll treat you to fried noodles.”
Liu Yao: “Yue, thank you so much…”
Zhang Yue: “You’re welcome.”
With Zhang Yue’s protection, the three major guilds developed much faster, with more than half of their members reaching level 30 and completing their second class change!
Besides protecting the three major guilds, Zhang Yue also leveled up the Apocalyptic Black Dragon to level 24 in one day!
At this rate, it would reach level 30 by tomorrow!
At six in the evening, Zhang Yue logged off at the Dark Hall.
While having dinner, he checked the forum.
He found that the guild recruitment post he had posted in the morning had gained quite a bit of attention!
The replies were varied:
“50,000 a month? That’s higher than Mist Rain Pavilion’s salary! Is this a scam?”
“They even posted their guild license, it can’t be a scam.”
“Really 50,000 a month? Can I join? I’m a level 29 Warrior!”
“Brother, let me join your guild. I’m only level 26, but I’m a great cook! I can make nutritious meals for you, guaranteeing you’ll gain a pound a day!”
“Level 27 Assassin, can eat by myself, can kill a chicken with one hand!”
“Level 28 Priest, can warm your bed!”
“What the heck is all this,” Zhang Yue frowned slightly.
Forget it, time to eat…
Meanwhile, in another part of Coastal City.
In a small restaurant.
The Infinity Sword Saint, eating with several guild staff, received a report from his subordinates: “Vice President, our people in the Fourth World were completely retaliated against by that Beast Tamer Zero today. That guy is incredibly strong, and our people were too scattered. The entire guild was wiped out by him…”
“The average level dropped by 1, and we lost over forty pieces of equipment, with an estimated total economic loss of a million…”
“What?” The Infinity Sword Saint slammed the table in anger: “This is outrageous!”
At the same time, another report came in:
“Vice President, we’ve found out that Zero has no background, he’s just a commoner from Coastal City!”
“His success is likely due to luck and the appreciation of Liu Yao, the son of Coastal City’s richest man, and the second miss of the Su Family!”
“Alright, I understand.” With this information, the Infinity Sword Saint felt no more hesitation. He sneered, “A mere commoner dares to oppose the Infinity Guild?”
“I’ll show you the consequences of challenging the Infinity Guild!”
A hint of killing intent flashed in the Infinity Sword Saint’s eyes.
“Notify everyone in Coastal City to log in!”
“Yes, Vice President!”
