The Lost City is a giant elimination arena where every player who leaves the game pays a penalty almost equivalent to having their account wiped.
Such ruthless rules are bound to make the competition here extremely fierce.
It's fine now; the limited number of tickets gives everyone a lot of room to explore.
Not mortal enemies like Su Bai and the Azure Dragon Society.
Even if two strangers meet, they will tacitly pretend not to see each other.
Once someone has mastered this secret realm and fully opens it to the public, that will be the time when...
The competition back then was truly brutal.
Player-versus-player battles are commonplace in the dungeons.
Some people even form hunting teams specifically to hunt down solo players who explore on their own.
And it was under these circumstances that the "knife-running gang" came into being.
"...You broke things in the room."
The battle lasted less than ten seconds from start to finish. After a moment of stunned silence, the monster sister spoke to Su Bai with a resentful tone.
"There's no other way to get rid of the intruders."
Su Bai said it as a matter of course.
"...You also injured me."
The monster raised an arm that was charred by flames and emitting black smoke.
However, they were accidentally injured by the spreading effect of the Fire Demon Curse.
Fortunately, it was a Tier 3 elite monster.
Thick blood volume.
A single fire spell only burned away less than one-tenth of its health.
However, it was only because Su Bai chatted with it beforehand and built a closer relationship that it pounced on it by now.
"In battle, some friendly fire is inevitable. You know I didn't do it on purpose."
Su Bai shrugged.
He casually tossed a bottle of pollen potion to it as compensation, then picked up all of Wuying's fallen petals and hurriedly walked out of the room.
"This is... um!"
The monster hugged the potion and sniffed it. The familiar scent immediately made it feel extremely at ease, and it happily started spinning around in place.
Even the fifth locker, which had been opened at some point, went unnoticed...
...
A bumper harvest!
Su Bai breathed a sigh of relief after leaving the room in a state of tension.
First, there's the Shadowless Drop.
Su Bai immediately remembered the name when he saw the system notification; it was a name that was very familiar to him.
One of the top ten assassin players on the Heavenly Ranking in his previous life!
"No wonder they're so difficult to deal with."
He nodded slightly.
Although when he said "difficult to deal with," he was only referring to the fact that Wuying could only last ten seconds against him...
The Heavenly Ranking is the most authoritative list that records all the strongest people in the world.
They can make it into the top ten in their profession.
That means...
He is already one of the strongest assassins to stand out among billions of players!
That's how he achieved this position.
Strength, wealth, and luck are all indispensable; it can be said that he has obtained the growth template of a chosen one of the world.
Thinking about it this way, it's not unacceptable that he was able to acquire one of the assassin's divine skills so early in the game.
pity.
He was still the better one.
Su Bai couldn't help but feel a little smug when he thought about how one of the strongest people in the future was now being slaughtered by him like a little brat.
The equipment dropped by this top assassin wasn't quite to his liking.
The equipment with light effects only has three blue and two green pieces; the rest are mostly white.
And they haven't even collected a complete set.
White outfit?
Even dogs don't need it.
Su Bai casually tossed aside the white trash that was below level ten.
The rest of the equipment is also around level 10.
no way.
Wuying's current level is on par with those top-tier players who have just reached level 10.
Good equipment doesn't drop naturally.
Su Bai picked and chose.
Only his dagger was barely worth looking at.
【Strike Blade (Poisoned)】
【arms】
[Level: Rare]
[Level: 9]
Attack: +44
Attack Speed: +10%
Penetration: +10%
Critical Hit Chance: +10%
【Trait: +1 Stealth skill (If you do not have this skill, you will automatically learn Stealth Lv1)】
[Durability: 295/360]
[Poisoning: +40 poison damage per second]
[Description: This dagger, crafted with obsidian powder, takes on the color of night.]
[Requirements: Agility 7, Strength 7]
...
The biggest advantage of this dagger is that it adds one level to the stealth skill.
This will also be the weapon that the knife-wielding gang will like to carry the most in the future.
Even if you're not a thief, carrying this dagger will grant you a stealth bonus. Combined with items like soothing incense, you can safely loot items right under the monster's nose.
The other equipment is pretty bad.
Including those two blue outfits.
At this point, level 10 or so blue equipment probably wouldn't even sell for 5 silver coins.
—A few hundred dollars isn't cheap. But compared to the items you can find in the Lost City, it's negligible.
Su Bai threw them all aside.
besides.
The most valuable items on Wuying's body were two bottles of poison-refining potion.
Spider venom
【Props】
[Level: Excellent]
[Description: Can be applied to weapon surfaces. When applied to enemies, it inflicts 15 points of poison damage per second and slows them by 35% for 5 seconds.]

[Corpse Venom]
【Props】
[Level: Excellent]
[Description: Can be applied to weapon surfaces. When applied to enemies, it inflicts 40 points of poison damage per second for 10 seconds.]
...
The Strike Blade is currently coated with corpse venom.
