Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

Chapter 49: LV40, Prepare for the Second Advancement Task

Translator: 549690339

” I managed to extract some information from the leader; they claim to come from the Void Dark God Assembly.¹¹

Zi Liyuan was more than ready to answer any question. He was eager for the city guards to go and trouble this accursed assembly, and best of all, to wipe out this evil organization!

“The Void Dark God Assembly? Any other intelligence?”

“Yes, it’s not just the Void Dark God Assembly. I also discovered another team of three, but after the explosion at the villa, these three immediately fled. Also, the residential area suddenly changed its second-order professional doorman.”

Zi Liyuan was determined to tell everything he knew, to have the city guard eradicate all of these evil forces.

And so, after a question-and-answer session that lasted over ten minutes, Jiang Bao the officer didn’t give Zi Liyuan a hard time and let him go.

The villa had been blown up, and the kid was also a victim. Besides, they speculated that he might be a bastard, and keeping him here would only impede the city guard’s work.

Jiang Bao didn’t want to provoke the kid’s backers and get tangled up with those families; it was troublesome enough.

Moreover, with college entrance exams looming, and the kid being as high as level 33, he was definitely a prodigy. He might even become this year’s top scholar in the Jiangnan Continent. Such an individual was worth wooing, preferring peace over confrontation was definitely the right move.

Of course, Jiang Bao couldn’t fully trust the intelligence provided by the kid; it still required further investigation.

As for the officer’s suppositions, Zi Liyuan naturally wouldn’t know, but he did sense the goodwill that was extended.

Since there was no need to take him back for further investigation with the city guard, he was all too happy to leave, so after thanking the officer, he headed to White Crane Academy’s altar square.

No home left, no rest for the wicked!

“Damn evil organization, I can’t provoke you now, so I’ll just live and eat at the altar square until the college entrance exams!”

Can’t beat them? Then hide from them!

Yet in Zi Liyuan’s eyes, a mad fury flickered.

Since arriving in the world of Blue Star eighteen years ago, he had never suffered such a loss. The grudge was significant; only the complete destruction of the other party could quench that anger!

White Crane Academy, altar square.

The area was still brightly lit and bustling.

Having finished his instance runs for the day, Zi Liyuan started to browse the stalls, hoping to spot a bargain.

Unfortunately, while the idea was good, the merchants who specialized in bargain-hunting had already cornered the market, leaving no room for him to find any deals.

As time went by, he had visited every stall in the altar square and hadn’t found a single item he could use.

“Sigh, most of my peers are around level 14 by now. Unless they get high- quality items from treasure chests, what good stuff could they possibly get just from boss drops?”

After his lament, Zi Liyuan lost interest in browsing and listlessly sat near the altar.

It wasn’t until the sun began to set that Shen Yurou found him.

“Liyuan, I’ve passed the rank one hero quest.”

“Very good. So next, aim for level 35 before the college entrance exams, and upgrade all the necessary skills to their maximum. Then, focus on crafting those mechanical gadgets to prepare for admission into Dragon Academy.”

A glint of satisfaction flashed in Zi Liyuan’s eyes; Shen Yurou hadn’t let him down and had successfully completed the hero-level rank one quest. He began to assign her tasks for the next phase.

“Zi Liyuan, are you serious? Can someone with a lifestyle profession like me really get into Dragon Academy?”

It wasn’t that Shen Yurou lacked confidence; it was just that the admission standards for Dragon Academy were incredibly high.

Every year, among tens of millions of students across the Nine Great Divine Provinces, Dragon Academy only enrolls ten thousand, and out of that number, only one thousand spots are allocated for those with lifestyle professions, not to mention it predominantly targets those hidden types of lifestyle professionals.

“Who said you were a lifestyle professional? Such a powerful combat professional like you could easily suppress all those geniuses and gain admittance to Dragon Academy, couldn’t you?”

To tell the truth, if not for having two cheats, Zi Liyuan might not necessarily outperform Shen Yurou at their level.

It was just that the equipment and items she had created were so biased and extreme: sniping from a distance, laying traps with a wealth of bombs—it wouldn’t be odd for Zi Liyuan to end up overturned if he wasn’t careful.

Upon hearing Zi Liyuan’s words, Shen Yurou was left standing there in a daze, taking quite a while to recover, yet the light in her eyes grew increasingly bright.

“Right! Why should a mechanic be considered a mere lifestyle professional?! Being able to single-handedly clear instances above her level, completing a First Order hero-class mission in merely two days—she’s in no way inferior to the prodigies raised by the great clans!”

“Stop overthinking things. Just follow the path I’ve set out for you, and I guarantee you’ll be able to get into Dragon Academy!”

The people at Dragon Academy aren’t blind; when a mechanic, relying on martial virtue, overwhelmingly defeats fellow students, there must be something noteworthy about her, especially since she’s acknowledged as a lifestyle professional—the academy will surely send someone to conduct an in- depth investigation.

By the time that happens, as long as Shen Yurou releases a few low-level blueprints, Dragon Academy would definitely treasure her as a prized talent!

In the following days, the two of them earnestly grinded instances, using up the allotted four instance runs every day before either crafting mechanical items in the warehouse or sweeping the markets to buy various metal ingots and other materials.

Until the last day before the college entrance exams.

At the peak of First Order LV40, the level was once again capped, and it could only be raised again upon completion of the second-tier promotion tasks.

The items needed for the hero-class second-tier tasks were essentially the same as for the first-tier ones; the only difference was that the blood required from the second-tier hero monsters had become even more expensive.

Luckily, Zi Liyuan, having grinded so many instances, had plenty of blood from the second-tier hero monsters—even possessing a large stock of hero BOSS blood materials.

Ten blood material items, with each valued at 4 million Dragon Coins, saving him a total of 40 million Dragon Coins.

However, initiating a second-tier hero mission required 10 million Dragon Coins, which spiked his blood pressure quite a bit.

No wonder so many professionals were stuck at their current levels, unable to advance—the cost of class change was outrageously expensive!

Of course, Silver Hero tasks like these were usually only attempted by the celestials of the great families; ordinary people couldn’t afford to spend so much money on them.

However, even the Blue Rare tasks required 4 million Dragon Coins; any professional with aspirations would need to complete such a tier’s promotion task at the very least, or else advancement would become increasingly difficult further on.
