140: Chapter 140 An Unexpected Job Change Quest! Defend Tower City!
Zhang Jian slowly woke up and, ignoring the dissuasion of Wei Donglai and the others, insisted on visiting Wang Dong.
Fortunately, the place where the other party was resting was right next to his room.
Wang Dong was already awake on the hospital bed, chatting and laughing with Instructor Wang Weidong and his wife.
"Instructor, why are you here too?"
Facing Zhang Jian's surprise, Instructor Wang Weidong smiled.
"Wang Dong is also my student. We just happened to return and heard that you were attacked, so we came to check on you."
Zhang Jian came to Wang Dong's bedside and said sincerely,
"Brother Dong, I owe you my life for this! Otherwise, I would have been dead!"
Wang Fei, who was nearby, still said carelessly, "Hey, Brother Jian, you're exaggerating."
"Even if my brother hadn't managed to save you in time, we could have been teleported away thanks to the properties of the [galaxy badge]. Nothing major would have happened."
Zhang Jian shook his head.
"You're thinking too simply."
"The other party used an epic-grade item that could temporarily disable our [galaxy badge]. If we died, we would have really died!"
Wang Fei's face turned deathly pale.
"There's an item like that?"
Wei Donglai and Yan Han were also full of lingering fear.
They had fought alongside Zhang Jian many times and were well aware of his strength and skills.
Although the [Sword Qi Field] was powerful, it required taking damage before it could be activated.
If Wang Dong hadn't been quick-witted and pushed Zhang Jian aside this time,
given the opponent's attack, he might have really finished him off!
Wei Donglai and the other also came over together to bow to Wang Dong, thanking him for saving Zhang Jian.
This caught Wang Fei off guard.
At this moment, although his injuries had been stanched, he was still bleeding mysteriously.
Drop by drop.
Although the speed was slow, it could not be stopped.
He tried several types of recovery potions, but they were ineffective.
Zhang Jian had Wang Fei take out several rare potions obtained from the Dungeon earlier, but found they were also useless.
While rummaging through his backpack, Wang Dong accidentally grabbed the Job Change Certificate.
Instantly, a bright light burst forth, enveloping him.
Zhang Jian rushed forward to check the situation, but he was also enveloped by the light.
The scabbard carried on his back seemed to come alive within the light.
It emitted wisps of starlight, which fused with the light of the Job Change Certificate.
The light dissipated, and those present looked at each other in bewilderment.
Wang Dong also had a strange look in his eyes.
"I just received a System prompt. My own spirit has activated the Job Change Certificate, and I can undertake a hidden, unique job change quest. After completion, my job will be strengthened, and there will be additional rewards."
Everyone was overjoyed.
"That's a good thing."
Wang Dong made a wry face.
"The rewards are nice, but the prompt says the monsters' strength will be indirectly enhanced, and I need to form a team to complete it. Even the team members will complete their corresponding job change quests after finishing the mission."
"Just now, Xiao Jian was also counted as a member of my team."
"The two of us are both Swordsmen; isn't that just asking for trouble?"
Wang Fei and the other two breathed a sigh of relief.
"With Brother Jian helping you, your job change is guaranteed."
"No matter how strong the monsters are, they aren't as strong as Brother Jian. Brother Dong, you're about to take off!"
Wang Dong was stunned.
"Wait, what are you all talking about?"
"No matter how talented Zhang Jian is, can he really help me change jobs?"
Wang Fei shook his head.
"My brother, you are way behind on the updates."
Instructor Wang Weidong also looked at Zhang Jian in surprise.
Judging by this, Zhang Jian had become even stronger in just the few days he was away?
Wei Donglai and Yan Han transformed into crosstalk comedians, exaggerating and boasting about their recent achievements.
It left Wang Dong and the others dumbfounded.
"So, after all that, Wang Hongming and Li Zhihai, who almost killed me in one hit, were actually both killed by you, Xiao Jian?"
"My goodness, is this still a Swordsman?"
After sighing for a while, Wang Dong felt genuinely happy for Zhang Jian.
However, for the sake of safety, he still suggested adding a few more people to the team.
Wang Fei took the lead without hesitation.
Wei Donglai and the other did the same without hesitation.
Finally.
Even Ye Xun and Instructor Wang Weidong and his wife were tempted and joined in.
[All in the Same Boat] (Team Job Change Trial)
Members: Wang Dong, Zhang Jian, Wang Fei, Wei Donglai, Yan Han, Ye Xun, Instructor Wang Weidong, Ming Li
Mission Description: Defend Ta City for seven days against an offensive composed of various monsters. If there are no casualties, the mission will be completed.
The strength of each wave of monsters is calculated as 1.5 times the team's average Rank.
During the siege, base experience gained from killing monsters is doubled, and drop rates are increased by 20%.
What was originally just Wang Dong's sudden job change quest had suddenly become one for eight people.
However, everyone had their own basic requirements that hadn't been met.
Their respective Ranks were one aspect.
For Zhang Jian, he also needed to kill 5 bosses higher than his own legendary rank to fully activate his own job change conditions.
However, none of this was a problem.
There were still several high-Rank Dungeons in Ta City that they hadn't visited.
During the mission, they could just find time to clear them.
As the main player who activated the quest, Wang Dong could also activate one job talent early for his potential job, [Master of Hundred Weapons].
Fortunately, it randomly rolled the most core one directly.
[Command Sword Weapon]
As a [Master of Hundred Weapons], you can command various weapons. As a Sword of Kings, you can equip multiple swords simultaneously, and their effects will stack.
Every 10 levels gained adds an additional sword equipment slot.
Currently equippable: 5
This talent made Wang Dong both excited and helpless.
What made him excited was that he could strengthen his power early and contribute his strength in the city defense battle.
But what made him helpless was,
he currently had no ability to gather 5 weapons suitable for his use.
Seeing that there was a Great Master of forging like Zhang Jian, yet he had no money to buy weapon recipes, Wang Dong was anxious.
If Zhang Jian and the others paid for it, he would be even more embarrassed.
He still owed money for buying Zhang Jian's Job Change Certificate.
And just as Zhang Jian and the others were heading to the Professionals Association, a turning point arrived.
When President Li Husheng learned that Li Zhihai had fled after attempting to ambush Zhang Jian and being killed in retaliation,
and that Wang Dong, as a friend familiar with Zhang Jian, had been suppressed by Li Zhihai using the Professionals Association's authority up until now,
he expressed his intention to provide corresponding compensation to them.
As for Zhang Jian, having previously taken a jade pendant from him, which had saved his life at a critical moment, he decided not to hold a grudge anymore.
As for Wang Fei,
and under Zhang Jian's reminder,
President Li Husheng directly contributed a recipe for a level 35 legendary rank sword-type weapon.
Come to think of it,
this item had been sitting in the Professionals Association's warehouse for several years.
No one had ever bought it.
After all, as a Swordsman, the combat power was poor, and there was no foreseeable future.
Even at its worst, this recipe was legendary rank, and a normal Swordsman Professional really couldn't afford it.
President Li Husheng had exhausted his contribution points accumulated over the years in the Professionals Association and obtained the lowest discount to barely be able to afford it.
Upon receiving the recipe, Zhang Jian took the others and couldn't wait to return to the market to begin forging.
Although this recipe only offered a mere 10 attempts,
after he had exhausted 7 weapon forging recipes of level 20 or higher in the market, and his understanding of forging weapons higher than his own Rank had reached an incredible level,
he finally began the forging process.
And the final result left everyone shocked.
...
I have completely lost my income. I originally wanted to give up, but then I thought about the brothers who are still following along. Moreover, there were the large gifts donated by user 23569409, and I promised to add more chapters, but I didn't even finish the 5 added chapters before this book became a failure. For the brothers who have been supporting me and the great kindness of the big shots, this book will not be cut directly. I might speed up the progress a bit later to finish the subsequent plot and provide a complete ending.
