Flying Eagle Shoes, Accidents Happen Frequently

When Lin Xuan left the Enhancement Hall, his expression was a bit grim.

Now, all of his equipment had been enhanced, and their levels had reached Enhancement Ten.

He had also gained the Enhancement Resonance attribute.

【Enhancement Resonance: All damage +10%, all attributes +10%, spell critical hit rate +10%.】

All four resonance attributes were absolutely perfect.

One must know that resonance attributes were not unique.

They had various random resonance effects such as faction suppression, attack bonuses, speed bonuses, and attribute bonuses.

Lin Xuan's resonance attributes this time were much better than the Strong Seven Resonance.

This should have been a cause for joy, but Lin Xuan felt a bit depressed.

The cost was simply too great.

Ten billion worth of enhancement items were all gone!

And not a single item reached Enhancement Eleven.

“Are these enhancement gems and replication crystals really problematic?”

“The probability can’t be this low, right?”

Lin Xuan grumbled a few words, then ordered some more enhancement items from the auction house and stopped paying attention.

With two replication crystals and the evolution stones promised by the Chen Clan Merchant Guild, he was now flush with cash.

He felt uncomfortable mainly because he believed his luck wasn't bad.

“It’s definitely that machine and those items that are problematic.”

Lin Xuan muttered, heading to the school’s dungeon hall.

The level sixty dungeons, Frostwolf Snowfield and Sandstone Fortress, were not large maps.

With a continuous push, Lin Xuan had already completed all difficulties of both dungeons by 3 PM.

By now, he had topped the difficulty rankings for ten dungeons.

Of course, the Ant Nest had been blown up by him, which caused him to lose two dungeon top spots.

Currently, each dungeon had five difficulties, and Lin Xuan possessed a total of forty speed-run top spots.

According to the experience settlement mechanism, dungeons below level ten gave one point per minute, and from level ten to twenty, two points per minute, and so on.

Every night at midnight, Lin Xuan could automatically gain over 230,000 experience points.

Now, at level sixty, he needed over seven million experience points to level up.

Even if he just lay around for a month, he could almost level up.

“Not bad. Perhaps I should visit the dungeon hall in Jianghai City and secure a few more speed-run top spots.”

Lin Xuan chuckled, then re-entered the Sandstone Fortress dungeon.

It wasn’t until 10 PM that he finished his busy day.

The harvest was quite good.

He obtained a good amount of equipment, items, and Magic Cards.

He even gained seven skill points.

However, even with such good luck and high drop rates, he still failed to acquire the unique exclusive equipment from Sandstone Fortress.

Lin Xuan didn't mind.

He rested for a night and continued into the dungeon the next day.

Finally, nearing noon, during Lin Xuan’s first dungeon run after reaching level sixty-one, the unique exclusive equipment appeared.

【Equipment: Flying Eagle Boots】

【Quality: Mythical】

【Effect: Speed +60, Mana +500, Agility +30, Tenacity +20%.】

【Equip Requirement: All professions level 60 or above】

【Attribute: Cooldown reduction +10%, and gain a temporary skill: Flying Eagle Step!】

「Flying Eagle Step」: Consumes a small amount of mana and a large amount of health to condense a vortex beneath the feet, allowing one to step on air.

【Note: Flying Eagle Step is a backup skill with no cooldown. The duration and distance of stepping on air depend on mana and health values, and recovery ability is reduced by fifty percent while Flying Eagle Step is active!】

“Got it!” Lin Xuan clenched his fist tightly.

This equipment had a drawback: recovery ability would be reduced by fifty percent after the skill was activated.

But for him, this was not a problem at all.

He wasn't afraid of consuming health.

His mana value also far exceeded that of people at the same level.

It was completely sufficient!

“Combined with my current Void Walk, it’s like ascending to the heavens and descending into the earth, no one can stop me.”

Lin Xuan was very satisfied. After directly replacing his equipment, he performed an aerial step once.

It was a peculiar sensation.

After lifting his foot, as long as Lin Xuan thought he could step on air, a blue-red interwoven vortex would form beneath his foot.

It was like stepping on an aerial staircase.

Lin Xuan slowly stood suspended in mid-air like that.

Whoosh—

Void Walk activated.

Lin Xuan appeared in the air five meters away.

The moment his figure appeared, a vortex already formed beneath his feet, preventing him from falling.

“Very good.”

Lin Xuan slightly felt the speed of health and mana consumption.

He felt it was acceptable.

After the test, Lin Xuan did not go to the school cafeteria.

His villa already had three maids: the Dragon Girl Irena and two Lotus Fairies.

They had been learning to cook in their free time recently, and their cooking tasted decent.

After lunch, Lin Xuan rested briefly before heading to class.

After entering university, the curriculum was actually similar to high school, but the knowledge learned here was much more in-depth.

Of course, don't think it was easier than before the Great Cataclysm.

In this world, subjects like physics, chemistry, history, and geography still needed to be learned.

In fact, more knowledge was required than before the Great Cataclysm.

There was no other way.

Not everyone could go kill monsters.

In a world solely reliant on force, who would build houses, and who would solve daily life problems like food?

All of these required a lot of knowledge to support them.

For example, the world's number one professional, Einstein.

It was said that his combat power was not as strong as the world's second-ranked, General Li.

But his knowledge was unparalleled throughout history.

For the continuation of human civilization, his contributions were no less than General Li's.

Of course, although there were more school courses now, students were not overly tired.

Professionals were already supernatural beings, so their memory and comprehension naturally evolved.

Students didn’t have too many complaints.

A week passed uneventfully.

During this week, Chen Wanqiu did not come to find Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan was naturally very relaxed, spending his mornings in dungeons, afternoons in classes, and evenings in the arena and ladder matches.

Of course, while Lin Xuan’s life was peaceful, the entire Jianghai City and even the whole world were not.

After the anomalies occurred in various countries a week ago, exploration began.

In Jianghai City, due to the sudden change in the terrain of the Divine Grace Cemetery, the exploration progress lagged far behind other countries.

There were even significant casualties.

First, many rogue professionals and those from small guilds went missing in the Divine Grace Cemetery.

Then, large guilds entered and disappeared without a trace.

All signs indicated that the Divine Grace Cemetery was very dangerous.

Consequently, the military district stationed in Jianghai City issued an astonishing bounty.

Because they had to maintain public order and resist monsters, the military's professionals were generally very high-level.

However, currently, only first-tier professionals could enter the Divine Grace Cemetery, so the military had no choice but to resort to this.

The enormous bounty directly shocked many professionals and even caught the attention of professional league players.

It was known that professional players, for the sake of championships, were even willing to not level up, constantly grinding dungeons and various first kills to accumulate attributes.

Some people with ninety-nine attributes could match those at level one hundred fifty or sixty.

When the professional players appeared, many people in Jianghai City believed success was almost guaranteed.

However, on Friday, while Lin Xuan was in class, a bell suddenly rang at Mingzhu University.

Immediately after, amidst the bewildered gazes of many new students, the new student advisor from the Mage School came to the classroom and announced, somewhat somberly, that a substitute player from Mingzhu University's professional league team had gone missing in the Divine Grace Cemetery, and a main team member had died!
