Her race had already transford into the ’true’ Dragon Tribe, significantly boosting her personal attributes, even granting her an additional increase in Performance Coefficient.
A few minutes later, the small white dragon hung onto Zheng Yichen, wailing loudly. Attributes couldn’t decide everything. Even in the Virtual World, where her level was slightly higher than Zheng Yichen’s and her attributes were superior, the practical combat gap was still huge.
It only took a few minutes for Zheng Yichen to make her cry.
"That’s so an." Suppressed the entire ti, Tanshia Firlo rubbed herself against Zheng Yichen vigorously. "You could’ve defeated faster, but you intentionally dragged it out!"
In the first two minutes, she thought she could hold her ground. By the next two minutes, she started to struggle. By the final minutes, she finally understood—Zheng Yichen was holding back.
"You’re a Mage, yet you’re engaging in lee combat. Isn’t this just asking for trouble?" Zheng Yichen rubbed Tanshia Firlo’s head. The small white dragon looked pitifully aggrieved.
"I know, but I couldn’t manage to create distance no matter how I tried."
Zheng Yichen’s tamorphosed body was too agile. When faced with her magic attacks, he dodged bullets in real-ti, rendering her attacks ineffective and even preventing her from widening the gap between them.
By the final minutes, she had figured it out. Zheng Yichen hadn’t even used a more refined combination like the Vajra Body and Burst Mode, which would have ended the fight even faster. Transforming into her dragon form was an option, but it would have put her at an even greater disadvantage.
"Co on, let’s go find a new boss. There’s plenty of ti, but we can’t waste it. Let’s aim to reach max level within a week."
Although leveling up by continually fighting bosses within a short ti fra was challenging, it wasn’t impossible. In this world, there was no concept of a ’main quest,’ or rather, every action could be considered a main quest.
For example, if soone wanted to beco the Sword Saint of the Virtual World, everything they experienced on the Path of the Sword God would count as the main quest.
As for their own quest to max out their level, Lilith had already customized a whole set of upgrade routes for Zheng Yichen.
Take, for instance, the King of rcenaries route, which involved completing a large number of rcenary missions. Aside from the initial accumulation phase, the later stages relied heavily on challenging high-difficulty tasks.
As long as the quests weren’t failed, players could constantly accumulate ’reputation,’ which could be converted into substantial experience point gains. This would also provide additional bonuses, similar to a title.
However, if a quest did fail, it would negatively affect the accumulation. The Path of the Sword God was relatively straightforward, while the Path of the Supre Demon served as a more advanced counterpart.
There were also branches like the Sword Immortal and Path of Supre Demon. In short, there were all sorts of options.
That said, only a few people ever truly completed such paths. Most players were relatively ordinary, and to them, obtaining an elite template was already quite impressive.
"Dragon Knight? There’s such a route?" Tanshia Firlo imdiately spotted a special route in Lilith’s customized plans. Being inherently a dragon, she was particularly sensitive to dragon-related terms.
She said to Zheng Yichen, "I think this one is worth trying. Our conditions fit perfectly!"
She herself was a dragon, and in terms of compatibility, there wasn’t any other dragon better suited to partner with Zheng Yichen. There was no need to find another dragon from the Virtual World, especially since most dragons in this world were likely fake giant dragons.
"This route has relatively low efficiency." Lilith was blunt, refusing to indulge Tanshia Firlo.
"The best routes are King of rcenaries and the challenge-based ones."
Both the King of rcenaries and the challenge routes had ’winning streak’ buffs. The higher the streak, the greater the final rewards—often exceeding several dozen tis the original gains.
Of course, maintaining such a streak wasn’t easy, as there were always ’peach-pickers’ lying in wait...
From the data she had, the previous King of rcenaries had been picked clean by soone. Essentially, he had been treated as an experience pack.
After being defeated, the King of rcenaries granted the challenger imdiately one-third of his winning streak buffs.
Whether these situations involved so unspeakable transaction in the real world was uncertain, though perhaps they did. However, since the Virtual World played a critical role in distributing real-world pressure, many events within the Virtual World were protected by real-world laws.
If any cheating behavior was discovered, the consequences would be severe. Besides, if soone inherited such buffs and turned out to be useless, they’d be challenged soon enough, and the newly obtained streak boosts wouldn’t last long.
The inheritance of winning streak buffs also experienced significant reductions. Only the first couple of transfers held any allure—after that, it beca less impactful.
The challenge route and King of rcenaries route weren’t mutually exclusive. However, the higher the winning streak buffs a player accumulated, the more they’d be targeted. After all, everyone wanted to snatch up the accumulated experience treasure trove.
But for those carrying the winning streak buffs, challengers could also be turned into experience packs to fuel further streak gains.
The strong only got stronger, provided they didn’t fail...
Therefore, if Zheng Yichen wanted to max out quickly, leaving aside the King of rcenaries route, the challenge paths were indispensable.
"The King of rcenaries route requires reputation accumulation early on, while the challenge route can shorten that phase. Once progressed far enough, it can seamlessly transition into the King of rcenaries route."
"The challenge route doesn’t just involve battling formidable opponents. Even strong magical beasts are part of the challenge category."
In her chibi-style appearance, Lilith operated a projection screen, drawing out a twisted and complex path. This was the maximum-efficiency route she calculated.
