The Plague of the Undead, a world event brought forward once again!

[You have achieved 28 consecutive victories, +75 points. You have been promoted to Gold Tier 9. Current ranking: Tier 1: 850,000th.]

"It's done!"

Looking at the prompt before him, a smile tugged at the corners of Chen Ming's mouth.

He decisively exited the Duel Arena.

He opened the quest panel.

[Ding! You have successfully completed Chapter 2 of the quest [class awakening: proof of the hunter]. You have received the rewards: Arrow of the Underworld, class weapon: Beyond, quality promoted by one tier, and +7 Enhancement Protection Scroll x10.]

As the notification sound faded, the Arrow of the Underworld and Beyond both erupted in a dense blood-red glow.

Chen Ming looked down.

[Arrow of the Underworld]

[Quality: Dark Gold Grade.]

[Durability: 1/1 point.]

[Description: Listen to the sound of death's wind.]

——————————

[Beyond.]

[Quality: Dark Gold Grade.]

[Level: Level 25 (Synchronized with the holder's level)]

[Durability: 2100/2100 points.]

[physical attack: +4500 points.]

[Attack Speed: +100%.]

[Critical Rate: +30%.]

[Critical Damage: +200%.]

[Special Effect 2: Your fired arrows deal an additional 50% of your physical attack as true damage.]

[Special Effect 3: When your HP is below 50%, attack range is increased by 100%.]

[Description: Careful... don't let me set my sights on you.]

...

After the quality Promotion, whether it was the Arrow of the Underworld or Beyond, all attributes and effects had been significantly improved.

"Once these two pieces of equipment reach their limit, I'll use my talent to perform an Enchantment upgrade."

"I wonder what tier they'll reach then."

Murmuring softly, Chen Ming turned his gaze to the next item.

[+7 Enhancement Voucher]

[Quality: Dark Gold Grade.]

[Effect: Upon use, it ensures the weapon will not break before reaching +7 enhancement.]

[Description: Fodder? With me around, there's no need at all!]

...

Good stuff!

Chen Ming's eyes lit up.

In Eternal, enhancing equipment not only costs a large amount of resources, but the success rate drops lower the further it is enhanced.

Especially after +5, if an enhancement fails, the equipment risks breaking.

Enhancement protection scrolls can protect equipment from breaking in such situations.

At this thought, Chen Ming's mind stirred: "Enhance!"

[Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [+7 Enhancement Voucher] x10, obtaining a Tier 1 upgrade.]

[Congratulations! You have obtained the item — +10 Enhancement Voucher (Epic-grade) x10.]

[Ding! You have activated your Forbidden Talent on the target [+7 Enhancement Voucher] x10, successfully applying a purple Enchantment affix: Potential Eruption.]

[+10 Enhancement Voucher]

[Quality: Epic-grade]

[Effect: Upon use, it ensures the weapon will not break before reaching +10 enhancement.]

[Added Affix: Potential Eruption (Purple): Every time an enhancement fails, you gain 1 Potential Point. For each Potential Point, 100 Potential Points ensures a 100% success rate for the next enhancement.]

[Description: What? Neighbor Old Wang's surgery failed? The fodder is here, charge, charge, charge!]

...

The original [+7 Enhancement Voucher] had directly evolved into a [+10 Enhancement Voucher], and the added affix was extremely practical.

Every failure would stack the enhancement success rate.

This meant that as long as one failed 100 times, the 101st time would definitely succeed.

"100 pieces of fodder in exchange for one 100% success rate enhancement."

Chen Ming murmured.

Without a doubt, this affix's effect was incredibly powerful.

After all, what were 100 pieces of fodder? In the later stages of equipment enhancement, the resources consumed in a single attempt were often measured in the hundreds of millions.

Thinking of this, Chen Ming put the ten enhancement vouchers into his backpack and then looked at the subsequent class awakening quest for the Hunter.

[class awakening: proof of the hunter]

[Quest Details: This is a large-scale chain quest consisting of ten chapters.

Chapter 3: Head to the super-large-scale secret realm, the Land of the Undead, and kill the Undead Sovereign (Level 40 Dark Gold Grade Boss).]

[Quest Reward (Chapter 3): Hunter's Badge, +200 to all attributes, +300 free attribute points.]

[Failure Penalty: Loss of the Hunter class, -50% to all attributes.]

[Time Limit: 60 days.]

...

"Super-large-scale secret realm..."

"Land of the Undead?"

A flash of surprise crossed Chen Ming's eyes.

If he remembered correctly, in his past life after entering the main city district, Eternal had launched a world event called the [Plague of the Undead].

The super-large-scale secret realm mentioned in the Hunter's class awakening quest—the Land of the Undead—was precisely the secret realm for the [Plague of the Undead] world event.

But the problem was, in Chen Ming's memory, the [Plague of the Undead] wasn't supposed to start until three months later.

"Could it be that the butterfly effect from my rebirth caused the [Plague of the Undead] world event to trigger early?"

Chen Ming speculated silently.

Just then, a world announcement suddenly popped up in front of all players.

[World Announcement: The super-large-scale world event [Plague of the Undead] will begin in 24 hours. All players, please prepare in advance.]

[Note 1: Only Tier 1 players can enter this world event.]

[Note 2: This world event features a point ranking system. When the event ends, the top ten players in the rankings will receive extra generous rewards.]

[Note 3: In this world event, players have only one chance to revive. Upon death, they will be directly teleported out of the secret realm.]

...

"It really is like that!"

"The world event has been moved up!"

Chen Ming's face was full of surprise.

If he remembered correctly, the final rewards for this world event were shockingly generous.

In his past life, a player from the Undead race had luckily obtained the final reward of this world event and subsequently soared, becoming a generation's Undead Monarch.

In Chen Ming's original plan, he had intended to skip this world event.

After all, with his current leveling speed, in three months, he would likely have already completed his second Advancement Trial, or even his third.

To his surprise, the world event had actually been moved up.

"There's still one day before the world event starts. I'll use this time to complete the class change quest for my second class."

...

On the other side.

City of the Undead.

This was the main City of the Undead race.

Generally, most people who chose to come here were players of the Undead system.

At this moment, outside the City of the Undead.

Akalisi sat on a player's corpse, looking at the world event in front of him with eyes full of surprise.

"I didn't expect to encounter a world event just as I entered the main city."

"Heaven is truly helping me. I, Akalisi, am indeed the Chosen Undead! Jie jie jie!"

Akalisi let out a burst of weird laughter, simply because the talent he had awakened was the SS-grade [Slaughter Evolution].

[Slaughter Evolution]

[Quality: SS-grade.]

[Effect 1: Every time you slay a player, there is a 10% chance to plunder a random attribute from them.]

[Effect 2: Every time you slay a player, you gain a certain amount of evolution points. When the evolution bar reaches 100%, you can undergo one evolution. The stronger the player slain, the more evolution points you gain.]

[Current Evolution Points: 35%.]

[Description: Continually advance through slaughter until you become the king of this world!]
