Upon reaching the Level 2 zone, the monsters encountered had also risen a notch, changing from Level 141 Dark Man-Eating Bugs to Level 142 Giant Spiders.
Although the points required to level up from Tier 2 Rookie to Tier 3 Expert increased fivefold, the points provided by the Giant Spiders outside Bronze City were also comparatively higher, so just as Chen Zijin had said, shifting the battlefield from Black Iron City to Bronze City was the best choice.
The two still cooperated the sa way as before: Chen Zijin was responsible for using Crystal Love to lure monsters, forcibly gathering the spiders outside Bronze City into a beast tide, and Zhang Yue perford mass extermination.
Under the powerful alliance of the Necromancer and the Shadow Dancer, wave after wave of Giant Spiders were transford into massive amounts of experience, energy, and points, all absorbed by Zhang Yue and Chen Zijin.
Each wave, with around over 100 kills, on average, provided 2–3 points for Zhang Yue and Chen Zijin respectively.
The point yield was double that of Black Iron City.
So, although the upgrade points had increased fivefold, it did not an that the difficulty of upgrading had increased fivefold.
With Zhang Yue’s monster-killing efficiency, he soon collected 500 points.
His tier rose to Tier 3 Expert, and he obtained qualification to enter the Level 3 zone: Silver City.
Afterward, they basically maintained a consistent pattern.
During the process of monster-luring with Crystal Love, Chen Zijin also assisted Zhang Yue in killing monsters to maximize kill efficiency.
In just five minutes, both of them collected 1000 points each, upgraded to Tier 4 Master, and officially stepped into the Level 4 zone: Gold City.
The increasingly higher-level opponents only served to fuel Zhang Yue’s motivation.
Because the more advanced the slaughter, the greater the experience, energy, and gold coin yield.
Subsequently, they moved through Platinum City, Diamond City, Starshine City, and finally, King’s City.
From Tier 5 Grandmaster, to Tier 6 Expert, then to Tier 7 Powerhouse, and ultimately Tier 8 King.
Finally, they reached King’s City, as required by the world mission.
And during this process, the levels of Zhang Yue and Chen Zijin also climbed to Level 145 and Level 143 respectively.
The experience needed for Zhang Yue to level up was far lower than that of ordinary professional fighters, coupled with the substantial experience he had accumulated back in the World 25, his level-up speed far surpassed Chen Zijin’s.
Aside from that, for Zhang Yue, there were two enormous gains that couldn’t be ignored.
First: The passive effect of the SSS-grade unique skill "Shattered · Ghost Eye" reached Level 8.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[Shattered · Ghost Eye] (Passive Effect, Lv8): When the skill holder successfully kills a target with a single-target attack, it triggers a pursuit effect, dealing 100% pursuit damage to the nearest enemy within a 75-yard radius around the target. If another kill is achieved, pursuit is triggered again. Under the right conditions, the number of pursuits is unlimited.
Upgrade requirent: 115/10,000,000 (Each successful pursuit 1 proficiency point, next upgrade will further expand pursuit range)
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
The pursuit range increased from 60 yards to 75 yards, aning the overall pursuit radius had reached 1.5 tis that of normal ranged professional fighters.
Second: Through continuous monster killing, and the triggering of the profession trait [Necro Harvest], the amount of pet feed collected had reached the amount needed to upgrade a legendary-grade pet to mythical-grade.
Currently, among Zhang Yue’s five pets, Armageddon Black Dragon, Cherry, and Apex Predator had already reached mythical-grade.
This ant that next, he could choose between the Ice-Sealed War God and the Skeleton King to undergo evolution.
At this mont, the Skeleton King and Ice-Sealed War God stood silently in front of Zhang Yue.
Both of them were eagerly looking at Zhang Yue, clearly hoping that they would be chosen.
One was the incarnation of a pseudo-king-grade boss.
One was just a converted ordinary boss.
Between the two, it was obvious the Ice-Sealed War God had higher potential and was more worthy of cultivation.
However, Zhang Yue resolutely chose... the Skeleton King.
As the first pet he obtained in this world after being reborn as a Necromancer, the Skeleton King had accompanied Zhang Yue the longest.
Of course, the main reason was that Zhang Yue had made too many promises to the Skeleton King before.
Every ti he promised: ("Don’t worry, you’re next.")
If he went back on his word again, the day might co when the Skeleton King would kill Zhang Yue with all the promises he’d drawn.
Zhang Yue looked at the Skeleton King and said, "Don’t let down my expectations of you."
Saying that, Zhang Yue took out ten pieces of legendary-grade pet feed from the pet space and had the Skeleton King devour them.
["Ding~ Your pet [Infernal Skeleton King] devoured the legendary-grade pet [Ghostfla Bird], evolution value 10, current evolution value 10%!"]
["Ding~ Your pet [Infernal Skeleton King] devoured the legendary-grade pet [Night Spider King], evolution value 10, current evolution value 20%!"]
["Ding..."]
["Ding~ Congratulations! Your legendary-grade pet [Infernal Skeleton King] has reached 100% evolution value and has evolved into mythical-grade [Armageddon Skeleton King]!"]
["Ding~ Your pet [Armageddon Skeleton King] has unlocked the mythical-grade pet exclusive effect: [Dark Night · Undying Monarch]!"]
Whoosh!
Watching as the golden armor on the Skeleton King transford into a more mysterious dark-gold color, his entire body erupted in dark-golden flas.
The previously empty skull sockets also began to emit crimson-red flas.
With the quality upgrade, the Skeleton King’s outer appearance and inner presence both underwent a complete transformation.
Even Cherry couldn’t help but open her small mouth into an "O" shape.
"Skeleton King-nii looks so cool!"
Beside her, Chen Zijin also looked at the Skeleton King with a shocked gaze.
"Wow! He... he leveled up, right? His aura just doubled. He’s like soone who went from a trash-picker to a final boss."
Zhang Yue: "You’re good with taphors."
Chen Zijin said thoughtfully, "If I’m not wrong, this must be the potential only mythical-grade pets can possess, right?"
Zhang Yue looked at Chen Zijin with interest and said, "Good eyes."
Confirming the Skeleton King’s mythical-grade identity would shock anyone.
After all, mythical-grade pets were extrely rare across the whole world.
However, at this mont, Chen Zijin didn’t appear as surprised as one would expect. It seed she had long anticipated this outco.
Just then, Chen Zijin suddenly said to Zhang Yue, "Actually, I’ve always been very curious about your identity. So from the very first ti we t, I’ve secretly investigated your background."
"Oh?" Zhang Yue asked, "So, did you find anything?"
Chen Zijin looked at Zhang Yue, her gaze gradually shifting from nervous to firm.
Finally, she said sothing that Zhang Yue hadn’t expected:
"You... are Asura, aren’t you?"
