Western Continent, Phoenix City
The meeting was over.
Zhou Yue sent the three people from Longwei County back.
The moment Yang Jian logged in, he continued to forge equipment.
Another arrow was freshly made.
Yang Jian checked its quality; it wasn't bad.
He activated his talent skill and devoured it... He opened his talent to check.
【Talent: Devour (Orange)】
【Description: Devour an orange or lower-grade equipment not higher than your level, inherit all of the equipment's attributes, infinitely stackable.】
【Cooling down: Remaining time: 59:55】
【Upgrade conditions: 8/50 (Only orange equipment counts towards upgrade conditions)】
【Current devoured attributes: Strength +32870, Agility +39170, Stamina +33020, Intelligence +4290, Attack +20330, Defense +24070... True Damage +7000, Additional Damage to Abyss +7000】
【Skill: Deception】
The speed of talent upgrading was a bit slower than Yang Jian had imagined.
However, for the current situation, it was enough!
Sharpening the axe doesn't delay chopping wood.
To cut down the most vigorously burning log,
the axe must first be well-sharpened.
Yang Jian was admiring his talent.
Just as he was giving himself a thumbs-up for his awesomeness,
Zhu Zhongliang's message came through.
A document listing all BOSSes level 30 and above across the three continents of New World was sent.
Actually, the document had always existed.
It had been prepared long ago.
But everyone knew Yang Jian was busy, so they didn't disturb him.
Zhu Zhongliang had also been waiting for Yang Jian to message him.
That's when he sent the document.
Yang Jian looked at it... The number was a bit absurd!
But thinking about it, how many BOSSes had Yang Jian alone defeated in Zhenhai City?
He asked Zhu Zhongliang to streamline it.
Remove some places that current-level players could reach.
Also remove BOSSes in complex terrains!
He wasn't afraid of islands.
But he absolutely wouldn't go into caves... Not that he couldn't defeat the mountain lords.
It was just that in the world of salvation,
cave terrains were often too complex.
Yang Jian really didn't want to bother slowly searching.
He only wanted to fight those in the open.
And it would be best if their levels were a bit higher.
Zhu Zhongliang repeatedly deleted entries.
Finally, forty-seven BOSSes remained... Across three continents and twenty main cities.
A total of forty-seven BOSSes were selected!
Actually, it wasn't that there were only this many.
It was that with the current level of players,
this was the maximum they could find!
Anything further was out of reach.
It wasn't that there weren't any, but for BOSSes that met Yang Jian's requirements,
players' strength could only access this many.
Yang Jian looked at the big hammer beside him.
Am I playing the game, or is the game playing me?
Blacksmith?
Not even a dog would be one!
I'm not playing anymore; I'm going out to fight BOSSes.
Yang Jian left gracefully.
Of course, before leaving, although he packed everything up and took it with him,
he also very conscientiously paid and renewed the blacksmith shop's rental fee... Standing in front of the teleportation array.
Yang Jian also carefully studied the map.
After looking for a long time, he realized it was really hard to make sense of the map.
He couldn't discern the local terrain.
Nor could he tell the distance to the BOSS's location.
He thought about it.
Studying this was less effective than just picking blindly... He would start directly from Phoenix City, the northernmost city of the West Continent.
Let's go!
To be honest, after teleporting to Phoenix City,
Yang Jian's first impression was not good.
As soon as he stepped out of the teleportation array, he encountered an old black man engaging in discrimination... Could Yang Jian tolerate him?
Just as he was about to make a move, a system prompt sounded in Yang Jian's ear.
【Ding, congratulations to the player for successfully crossing the ocean and arriving at Phoenix City, West Continent. A world announcement is about to begin. Would you like to hide your name?】
Yang Jian really had a black line on his face when he heard this.
If you really wanted me to keep a low profile,
don't bring up such a small matter!
You insist on broadcasting for me, yet you ask if I want to hide my name?
"Don't hide it!"
A world announcement suddenly sounded.
【Ding, World Announcement: Player 'Tianmu Zhenjun' has successfully crossed the ocean and arrived at the West Continent. As the first player to cross the ocean and reach another continent, he is specially awarded the title 'King of Pirates'! Reward: 1000 gold coins, New World main city reputation +500.】
【Ding, World Announcement: Player 'Tianmu Zhenjun' has successfully crossed the ocean and arrived at the West Continent...】
【Ding, World Announcement...】
The broadcast played three times in a row.
Yang Jian was numb!
Other players initially had no reaction?
Who's on TV?
Tianmu Zhenjun?
Oh, never mind then?
What? He's been brought to the West Continent?
How can this be tolerated?
I want to see if this Huaxia person has three heads and six arms... At first, this old black man didn't realize that the Huaxia person in front of him was Yang Jian.
A string of provocative words kept babbling from his mouth!
Who was Yang Jian?
Could he still endure such insolence?
He raised his middle finger and directly ignited the old black man's anger.
He was truly speechless!
He clearly couldn't take a joke, yet he insisted on trying to be humorous for no reason... Ever since the main city lord appeared to take charge of the overall situation,
the chaos in almost all main cities across the three continents had been largely brought under control.
The old black man didn't dare to make a move in the city.
He couldn't make a move anymore.
If he made another move in the city, Phoenix City's prison would soon be overflowing.
The moment he stepped out of the city's administrative area,
the old black man charged forward.
Yang Jian did not use weapons.
He turned and slapped him.
The opponent's health instantly bottomed out.
His head, defying the laws of physics, spun several times before facing backward.
He casually dealt with a minion who didn't know his place.
Yang Jian got up and flew towards the marked BOSS location.
Yang Jian left the scene with great swagger.
But the entire Phoenix City erupted.
What?
Yang Jian came to Phoenix City?
And he killed someone as soon as he arrived? And it was my subordinate?
This was like poking a hornet's nest.
The east wind blows, the war drums beat!
Who fears whom in a sword fight?
When the people of Phoenix City surrounded the area from all directions,
they only saw a small grave mound on the spot.
A tombstone stood, inscribed with "Eternal Glory"... "What is Tianmu Zhenjun doing in our Phoenix City?"
"I don't know!"
"Who cares what he's doing... Kill him, and we'll be famous!"
"Quick, check the official Twitter page! The three great families have issued a bounty: kill Tianmu Zhenjun and receive a reward of 100 million US dollars!"
"What...?"
At this, not only the people of Phoenix City,
but even players from the other six main cities swarmed in.
They wished they could bite off a piece of flesh from Yang Jian.
Yang Jian smoothly arrived in front of this Level 40 Golden BOSS.
An unremarkable Golden BOSS!
A magic-type BOSS, high attack, low health.
【Ice Mage Truerick, LV40】
【Undead, Humanoid Monster, Gold Rank】
【Health: 60 million】
【Skills: ...】
Sixty million health was much less than the Tyrannical Dragon King's health that Yang Jian had once seen.
Perhaps he had high attack, perhaps he had many control skills!
But you also had to be able to use them!
Bamboo Leaf was still advancing, and although the speed was a bit slow,
Yang Jian didn't think of urging him.
He directly summoned Mo Song.
Hunter's Mark, Aimed Shot... With one arrow, seven or eight damage numbers appeared above Ice Mage Truerick's head.
The highest number was over 1.5 million.
Interspersed among them were three white true damage numbers... This strike directly stunned the Ice Mage!
He didn't even want to fight anymore!
Or maybe he should run first...
