88: The nineteenth entry-Seek good fortune and avoid misfortune!

'Wild' instances are also called Natural Copys.

They are instances that randomly refresh in various places after the advent of the transcendent era, and whether you encounter one depends entirely on luck.

Moreover, these instances do not require crystals to open, but they have a limited number of uses and will disappear directly after being cleared a certain number of times.

Therefore, in order to level up, Natural Copys are often hotly contested by many professionals.

Ye Ze was quite tempted at this moment...

After all, it's hard to refuse a free instance!

And since it was discovered by Wan Feipeng, it shouldn't be a problem for him to take a few spots to enter, right?

You, Wan Feipeng, are out enjoying yourself...

I'm helping you guard the city, so it wouldn't be right if you didn't show some appreciation!

He turned off his phone.

Before preparing to level up, Ye Ze initiated his second Word Strip draw...

The experience from Devil King Mirage allowed him to level up directly from level 17 to level 19, and he could draw Word Strips twice in a row.

After a familiar golden torrent flashed, a Word Strip stopped in front of him:

"You have drawn a Gold Legendary Word Strip: Auspiciousness and Avoiding Evil!"

"Auspiciousness and Avoiding Evil: Causes surrounding teammates to instinctively avoid crises and disasters, and gravitate towards beneficial outcomes."

"Auspiciousness and Avoiding Evil... this leans a bit towards metaphysics."

After reading the explanation of the Word Strip, Ye Ze roughly understood:

If one encounters a three-way intersection, one can instinctively choose the optimal path, avoiding other dangers.

When choosing among several unknown items, one can also intuitively pick good things.

It's similar to the luck-doubling type of the Word Strip Lucky Star Shining Brightly.

Luck is like 'heaven's timing'.

It's absolutely essential, otherwise, if all options are dangerous, how can one find opportunities?

And Auspiciousness and Avoiding Evil is more like 'human harmony'...

Driven by one's own instinct to pursue benefits and seek opportunities!

"This effect seems very suitable for a Secret Realm..."

Ye Ze couldn't help but think.

Secret Realms are typical places where opportunities and dangers coexist, especially the upcoming God grade secret realm!

This Word Strip also belonged to an aura effect, so Ye Ze simply continued to give it to Squirrel.

"I wonder if these Word Strips have a chance of synthesizing?"

What kind of effect would a luck-based support Word Strip have after synthesizing into a legendary superior?

"Word Strip 'Auspiciousness and Avoiding Evil' successfully bestowed!"

"Summoned Beast: Shadow Treasure Plunder Squirrel (Epic☆☆☆) promoted → (Epic☆☆☆☆)"

Support characters indeed level up slower.

Star rating is a combination of potential and ability, and the bonuses that support Word Strips can bring are truly few.

But luckily, Squirrel doesn't need to fight.

Being a leisurely Squirrel isn't bad either...

Uh, no.

Besides fighting, Ye Ze's other tasks, including patrolling, scouting, changing positions, and so on... seemed to all be done by Squirrel.

Poor Squirrel...

At this moment, Ye Ze had just slurped down the last bite of instant noodles.

Then he saw a group of people rushing to his house with hurried expressions, led by Wan Feipeng, who had just returned from the Abyss Border.

Upon seeing Ye Ze, this burly man, still exuding a bloody aura, was extremely shocked:

"Ye Ze? You're the one who killed the Demon King in the city!??"

When he was at the Abyss Border, he did realize that Lin Yuan City's crisis had been resolved.

But at that time, he thought it was the City Guard, or Wu Ming, who had brought people to support and resolve it in time.

He never expected...

"That's right, it was Ye Ze! Hahaha!"

Behind Wan Feipeng, Wu Ming laughed loudly:

"So, your current combat record is actually the same as Ye Ze's."

"You both killed a Demon King, so what are you still being arrogant about!"

Indeed, even though Wan Feipeng was incredibly brave on the Abyss Border battlefield, killing one and severely wounding two Demon Kings.

But just like Ye Ze, his kill count was 1.

This immediately made Wan Feipeng's originally proud expression turn blank.

He, a dignified Sixth-tier professional, was actually almost on par with Ye Ze, a First-tier...

Wan Feipeng immediately retorted, "This, this..."

"I also severely wounded two, and one of them was almost killed! It's just that he ran fast!"

But as he spoke, he suddenly realized the problem: "No, what's wrong with me killing a Demon King?"

"The outrageous one is clearly this kid!"

Wan Feipeng pointed at Ye Ze, his expression incredulous:

"It's one thing for me, a Sixth-tier, to kill a Demon King, but how did you, a First-tier, do it?"

Ye Ze scratched his head.

He was wondering whether to say 'anyone can do it' or 'practice more if you're bad'...

He probably wouldn't get beaten on the spot, right?

However, Wan Feipeng's expression then turned to admiration...

A First-tier killing a Demon King, what level of potential must that be?

This not only helped Lin Yuan City resolve a crisis.

And it's absolutely a boundless future...

And then, Ye Ze also unceremoniously mentioned:

"City Lord, the Natural Copy you discovered, can I go now?"

"Of course, no problem!"

Wan Feipeng agreed immediately, "But, that's a Third-tier instance, a Natural Copy, mind you!"

Ye Ze naturally understood the meaning of his reminder.

Natural Copys are not like man-made instances; if you die inside, you cannot be resurrected!

Ye Ze, of course, was not afraid of this, as he had already been tempered in the Pollution Land, so this little danger was nothing.

But then, Wan Feipeng solemnly took out a golden talisman paper:

"Escape Talisman: Can ignore barriers, forcibly escape the current location, and teleport back to a safe area (can be set by oneself)."

A Gold Legendary life-saving item!

Good stuff!

"This is an instant-cast teleportation talisman, the set location is the City Lord's Mansion..."

Wan Feipeng handed the talisman paper to Ye Ze, "If you encounter danger, just use it directly, don't save it."

Although he had confidence in Ye Ze's strength after learning that Ye Ze had killed a Demon King, he was also afraid that an accident would ruin this promising talent.

"The Third-tier instance at the Abyss Border might have Abyss pollution inside, don't be careless!"

Ye Ze looked at Wan Feipeng's solemn expression and naturally knew how precious the item was.

He nodded, gladly took the talisman paper, put it in his backpack, and righteously said:

"Are there any more?"

Wan Feipeng's mouth twitched, "You..."

Such a rare life-saving item was more expensive than his annual salary! And he couldn't even buy it!

Then he said helplessly, "I'd better take you to the instance myself."

At this moment, Wu Ming quickly stopped him, looking at Ye Ze suspiciously and saying:

"You just dealt with a Demon King, you must have suffered considerable losses. How can you go to a Third-tier instance now?"

Not to mention others, just Liu Anran, who controlled the Demon King, had already overdrawn her spatial laws and needed a lot of time to recover.

He added, "Your summoned beast might not be injured, but its stamina and energy consumption must be enormous..."

"I suggest you don't rush, recover your stamina before going to the Third-tier instance!"

Beside him, Wan Feipeng nodded, also feeling that Wu Ming's suggestion made sense.

Hearing this, Ye Ze pondered for a moment.

He mused, "It's just clearing a Third-tier instance, how much stamina can that take?"
