◎First Release◎
[The instance is being settled, please wait...]
Yan Yu came to the settlement room and waited for nearly two minutes before the settlement result came out:
[Player Yan Yu successfully killed the Ghost King and used an SS-level space shield to help humans build a base and preserve the fire. Reward: Reputation +600, Free Attribute Points +2000, SS-level Spirit Cores*10]
Reputation points are extremely rare and must be a good thing, but Yan Yu doesn’t know how to use it yet, so he can only suppress it for the time being.
But she had a very strong premonition that perhaps it would not be long before she would know the specific usage of reputation points.
The free attribute points rewarded by this copy were the most Yan Yu had ever obtained after going through so many copies. She did not hesitate to put them all into the mental attribute column.
As a result, her spiritual attribute increased from 150,000 to 152,000, which is better than nothing.
SS-level spirit crystal cores are also very good. Yan Yu has calculated that an S-level spirit crystal core can probably increase or replenish 5,000-8,000 points of mental power, while an SS-level spirit crystal core can replenish about 30,000 points of mental power. As for an SSS-level spirit crystal core, it can replenish at least 100,000 points.
The last time Yan Yu was forging the Immortal-level clone belt, something almost happened. If it weren't for that SSS-level spiritual crystal core, his life would have been in danger.
After collecting the 10 spirit crystal cores, Yan Yugang exited the settlement space and returned to his shop, when his friend messages kept flashing.
She first picked out a few messages from Song Fa and read them thoroughly. The general content was that he was staying where he was temporarily, waiting for all the guild members to arrive before going to the Mechanical City together.
The guild members did work hard and basically gathered within three or four days. However, seventy or eighty of them still failed in the dungeon upgrade assessment. Currently, there are only 408 people left in the first guild on Blue Star.
This is very sad news.
Yan Yu observed a few seconds of silence, then continued to read. Song Fa had already led the team to set off yesterday, and it was estimated that it would take about 5 days to reach the Mechanical City.
His last message was to ask about her recent situation. After all, he had not been able to contact her for 6 days. Song Fa's words were full of anxiety and worry.
Yan Yu couldn't help but smile and replied, "Just came out of the dungeon, everything is fine."
After thinking for a moment, he added two more words: "What about you?"
It was as if he had been keeping an eye on her messages. The next second after she replied, Song Fa's latest message appeared on the friend list, adding a sense of urgency.
"I, we are all fine, don't worry... Take care of yourself these few days and don't push yourself too hard."
Song Fa knew that Yan Yu was a bit of a workaholic. Whenever she had free time, she would indulge in forging and couldn't help herself, even skipping sleep. This made him feel particularly distressed, and he only regretted that he couldn't share some of the burden with her.
He knew her strong character. As long as she couldn't control her own life, she would keep striving to move forward. Even if there were countless difficulties and obstacles ahead, she would overcome them and reach the top.
Although he couldn't help her forge equipment or share her pressure, he was willing to be the sharpest sword in her hand. Once the sword was struck, life and death would be up to her!
It turned out that he had been deeply attracted to her without realizing it and could not control himself.
In the past, all he loved most were the gun in his hand and the land under his feet, but now, she occupied the top of his heart, becoming an existence more important than his own life, and the one he would never change.
Yan Yu's eyes curved: "I know."
After finishing the communication with Song Fa, Yan Yu picked out the messages from Yao Dongxin, Liu Zhi and others, and finally opened Brody's message list, which was instantly flooded with dozens of messages.
"Boss, I bought the 500 S-level materials you specified, and 50 SS-level materials. I'll trade them to you first."
"By the way, I've got the invitation to the auction. The upcoming auction will be held in three days, and you can go anytime."
"Boss, where have you been? Why hasn't your store been open for two days in a row? You don't even know that so many customers outside are going crazy waiting for you to open. They can't find you and have already blocked my door. Woo woo woo!"
"Calling Boss, calling Boss, are you in the dungeon again? Why haven't you come out in days? Oh, I'm so worried. Please contact me if you come out of the dungeon!"
…
Yan Yu rubbed her forehead. She had never known that Brody, a member of the mechanical family, was also a talkative person. She typed, "I'm back. Come to the store later."
The other end: “!!!”
"Boss, I'll be there soon!"
In fact, before Yan Yu entered the Spiritual Recovery copy, in order to prevent the store from not having time to restock when he was away, he specially placed 1,000 S-level equipment and 100 SS-level equipment in the warehouse and set up an automatic replenishment function.
I didn’t expect that so many pieces of equipment were sold out in less than a day!
After six days in the dungeon, her shop had earned 4,300 orange crystals, which just met the requirements for upgrading the shop. Yan Yu immediately chose to upgrade the shop.
When the store is upgraded to level 5, it has reached the maximum level.
This time, 50 physical store spots are directly opened, and the consent of the mayor of the player city where the store is located is no longer required, nor is payment required. The store can be opened directly after selecting a location.
The store system is also smarter, and an auction interface has been added, where store owners can set the auction items and auction periods themselves.
At the same time, the store's warehouse has been expanded from 5,000 cubic meters to 100,000 cubic meters, and the owner can enter it at any time, even in the dungeon. If you encounter a life-threatening situation, you can immediately hide in the store, which is equivalent to having an extra trump card to save your life.
Another thing that surprised Yan Yu about the level 5 store was that it opened a purchasing system to her, where she could search for and purchase all kinds of goods she wanted.
To sum up, as long as you have money, there is nothing you can't buy!
With the procurement system, she can get as much materials as she wants and any equipment blueprints she wants. She doesn't have to search everywhere or compete with others at high prices at the auction house. It is simply perfect.
Moreover, the prices of the items in the procurement system are very fair, which means she has a long-term and stable source of purchases:)
The only limitation is the various blueprints. You can only buy those below SSS level, and the blueprint mall is only open once every 7 days. You can only buy a maximum of 3 each time.
After upgrading the shop, Yan Yu started to upgrade his guild to level 5.
The guild had already reached the upgrade requirement a long time ago, but before that, almost all of the guild members were in the lower realm, so they couldn't upgrade. Now that all the members have reached the floating realm, when would they upgrade if not now?
After spending 100,000 gold coins, the first guild on Blue Star was directly upgraded to level 5, also reaching the maximum level.
Each member of a level 5 guild will receive +500 free attribute points, the president +2000, the vice-president +1300, and each director +900.
As usual, Yan Yu put 2,000 free attribute points into the mental attribute column, and the mental attribute reached 154,000.
The guild's maximum capacity has increased from 2,000 to 5,000, but Yan Yu is not considering expanding the membership for the time being. She implements an elite system and trains the 408 people in the guild to become her strongest backing.
50 more virtual battle spaces have been added, bringing the total to 100. Many of the room attributes can be set by yourself, such as high temperature environment, extreme cold environment, high gravity environment, etc., and the training and improvement effects are obvious.
You can also change to cooperative mode, set your opponent's race, level, ultimate skills, etc., or choose a specific monster NPC for targeted training.
Very smart and convenient.
In addition to these, the Level 5 Guild also opened 50 meditation rooms. The properties of the meditation rooms can also be adjusted, and the number of people entering can be set. The key is that the speed of time flow can be adjusted in the meditation rooms!
Yan Yu immediately entered one of the rooms to try it out, and found that the maximum ratio of the time flow rate inside and outside could reach 3:1. In other words, it took 3 days to spend in the room, while only 1 day passed in the outside world.
Yan Yu:! !
"This is incredibly useful for forging equipment! It also allows me to practice three times faster than other players. It's a great thing!"
Yan Yu came out of the training room happily, and then looked at the last benefit after the guild was upgraded - reputation bonus, the reputation of guild members +100, the reputation of the president +500.
As a result, Yan Yu's reputation value suddenly reached 2000.
Before she could suppress her smile, a system prompt sound suddenly came from her ear, which made her startled.
[It has been detected that player Yan Yu's reputation has reached 2000. The "King's Arrival" challenge has been forcibly launched. You must obtain the God-level King's Crown within 100 days and become the master of the floating world. Otherwise, you will be eliminated!]
Yan Yu:!!!
She yelled "Fuck!" and then, realizing what was happening, she couldn't help but curse this damned infinite survival game and its system. "Damn it, you're just doing nothing all day long. One day, I'm going to finish you off!"
Yan Yu raised his middle fingers towards the sky to express his strong dissatisfaction.
Just as he finished giving the middle finger, a public announcement came from above the floating world:
[Congratulations to the players who have reached 2000 reputation points in the Floating Realm. The "King's Arrival" challenge begins now.]
[Candidates will be selected regardless of method or means. The candidate who ultimately succeeds in winning the God-level King's crown will become the Lord of the Floating Realm. Other candidates will be directly eliminated. The countdown is 100 days and begins now!]
This is truly a case of one general's success being built on the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers. Except for the ultimate winner, the others are just cannon fodder.
In the coming period, many candidates will probably be assassinated. She must hide her vest well and must not let other candidates find it in the early stage!
Fortunately, the system still has some conscience and has not yet announced the list of candidates, otherwise she would have no chance of success.
He had previously said that he didn't know the specific usage of reputation points, but now the game has tricked him. Yan Yu felt extremely frustrated.
However, danger also contains opportunities. Once you obtain the crown of the king and become the master of the floating world, the benefits will definitely be beyond imagination.
However, Yan Yu had no idea what the God-level King's Crown looked like or where it was now.
Yan Yu searched the store's purchasing system for relevant equipment or drawings, but found nothing.
The other 99 candidates are also confused.
"Father, do you know the God-level King's Crown? How come I have never heard of it?" Young Master Hui of the Blue Cinders shook his tentacles slightly, revealing a puzzled expression.
King Lan Jin rested several huge dark blue tentacles on the throne, his brows furrowed. He and his eldest son Lan Hui were both candidates, and being candidates meant killing each other.
Although he has thousands of descendants, he has always trained Lan Hui as his successor and has poured a lot of effort into him. He is unwilling to kill him with his own hands.
Perhaps, it would be best to let Lan Hui die at the hands of other candidates.
King Lan Jin simply replied "I don't know" and waved his tentacles, letting Lan Hui leave.
Lan Hui lowered his head in a submissive manner, "Father is undoubtedly the strongest among the candidates. The Lan Jin clan and I will fully support Father in his quest for the top spot!"
After making his attitude clear, Lan Hui said goodbye and left. But as soon as he left the palace, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. After a moment, he returned to his previous expression, and no emotion could be seen.
Inside the Blood Clan Hall
"Your Highness, I have compiled all the candidates from the blood clan. Here is the list. Please have a look." A pale-skinned man in a standard butler's uniform half-bowed and respectfully handed the list to the prince with both hands.
The prince, who was served by two beautiful vampires, raised his eyelids slightly, picked up the list casually, and glanced at it casually.
The vampires have a strict hierarchy. All vampires below him have to obey his orders even if they have obtained the crown of the god-level king. Therefore, he is not worried that they will become competitors. On the contrary, they are his best tools.
He doesn't have to do anything himself; he just needs to let his subordinates do the work and then enjoy the results.
However, the prince's gaze suddenly paused on a certain name, and the next second he sat up straight in anger and waved away the two servants.
"Damn it! How come that damned Delphira is also one of the candidates!?"
Delphira is another prince of the vampire clan. Together with Jonathan, she rules the clan and is the person Jonathan hates the most, no doubt about it.
"No, I must obtain the Divine King's Crown before Delphira does! Pass the order down, use any resources or means to obtain it for me!"
"Also, arrange an assassination team to kill Delphira. Look for half-bloods who are less oppressed by their class. I remember you rescued a stowaway named Chishui a while ago, and she happened to be half-blood. Also, arrange for a few of her friends to join the team. If they don't obey, kill them all!"
Chi Shui was one of the judges of the Lucibi Grand Prix. Last time, he and Lucibi sneaked into the floating world from the Beast King Battle copy. Like Yan Yu, he was unlucky enough to be captured by the SSS-level copy that day. His personal panel was completely banned and he almost died in it.
If half of Chi Shui's bloodline had not awakened at the critical moment, allowing the prince's steward in the same copy to notice it and help them, they might have died long ago.
Now, including Chi Shui, Lucibi, General Ken, Berta and Su Qingyi, all temporarily live in Jonathan's palace and become one of the servants.
They were once the pride of the world and supreme beings in the lower realm, but after entering the floating world, they could only live under a certain force and became servants serving the vampires and their guests. They were not valued at all. The psychological gap between them was too great, and they couldn't recover for several days.
Later, he learned about the power division in the floating world and found that he was still lingering in the late entry level. He was still a long way from the Soul Condensation Realm and was almost on the verge of collapse.
Especially General Ken among the five people, his mentality collapsed, and he made all kinds of troubles and caused damage, which angered Prince Jonathan. That is why he was sent to the assassination team today, where he had no chance of survival.
In the side hall of the Third Elder of the Netherworld Clan, the Third Elder was discussing matters related to the "King's Coming" challenge with several of his staff.
The new king of the Netherworld Clan had just taken office and was unable to convince the people, so the various forces were relatively scattered, with several leading elders forming their own factions and the competition was fierce.
Now, the battle for the master of the floating world is underway. The King of the Underworld, the seven elders, and the two guest officials in the clan who are not very powerful are all candidates, making the situation even more complicated.
Of course, the third elder also wanted to compete.
Once he succeeds, he will dominate the floating world!
At the crucial moment of the discussion, a dark-skinned, brown-haired boy, about 16 years old, suddenly burst in and shouted without hesitation, "Dad, I found the guy who forced me out of the Highway Survival dungeon!"
Everyone paused, looking at each other with unclear meaning.
The third elder said helplessly, "Mevrick, can't you see we are in a meeting? Go out first."
Mevrick stiffened his neck and looked unhappy. He was used to being spoiled, so how could he tolerate the slightest displeasure?
"Dad, you promised me last time that you would help me get revenge as long as I found that bad guy! I don't care, you send someone to help me deal with her now!"
Being provoked in front of his confidants, the Third Elder raised his brows and put on a sullen face, no longer showing his usual fatherly demeanor. "Nonsense! Don't bother me with such trivial matters. Get out of here!"
Realizing that he had really angered his father, Mevlik pursed his lips and said, "Since you don't care about me, I'll go and seek revenge on Yan Yu myself!"
After saying that, he ran out of the door in a few steps and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The third elder shook his head helplessly: "My son is behaving badly, please ignore him and continue the meeting."
The confidants naturally followed the Third Elder's instructions and turned the page on the matter. In fact, some of them were secretly preparing to leave the team and join other people.
After all, the Third Elder couldn't even handle a mere illegitimate child, and he just spoiled the child all day long. It was obvious that his ability to act, govern, and control subordinates was slightly inferior. The key point was that he had a fatal weakness, and the probability of him winning the "King's Coming" challenge was far lower than that of the other elders.
Instead of hitting a wall and being broken into pieces, it is better to find a wise master for yourself as soon as possible.
While all the candidates were actively preparing for war and gathering information about the enemy, Yan Yu was planning to build a shop.
She asked Brody for his opinion and opened nine more stores in the central city. These nine stores were located in the main urban areas of the players of the other nine major forces.
At the same time, 40 stores were opened in the new urban area, which can be said to be blossoming everywhere.
Brody's combat ability is not outstanding, but his intelligence ability is extremely good, probably because of his racial advantage. Almost as long as Yan Yu asks a question, he can give an effective answer. He is a very handy secretary.
Yan Yu: "Do you know any information about the God-level King's Crown?"
She was now completely confused and had no idea where to start.
Brody rested his chin on his mechanical arm and pondered for a moment before speaking hesitantly, "I seem to have seen information similar to the King's Crown, but I can't guarantee its accuracy."
"But it's okay."
"I love reading. I used to love hanging out in the Mechanical Tribe's libraries, big and small. I happened to be browsing the unofficial history of the Infinite Survival Game and came across a few sentences. The gist of it was that if you collect the nine divine crowns of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, ice, and illusion, and then combine them into one through a special method, you can create the crown of the king!"
Brody paused mid-sentence and continued, "But I'm not sure whether the God-level King's Crown announced by the system and the King's Crown I saw are the same thing."
Hearing his words, Yan Yu pondered for a moment.
If what he saw was real, then the production of the God-level King's Crown would be extremely complicated and time-consuming.
Even Yan Yu, who possessed the talent of a divine creator, couldn't help but feel puzzled, not to mention that there would surely be many unimaginable difficulties in the process.
"We can only take it one step at a time. Maybe that god-level crown will come to us on its own."
Yan Yu chuckled at herself, no one expected that her words would come true!
