Seeing the discussions in the chat channel, King's Glory, who had just erged from the Revival Spring in Hope Town, was fuming with anger.
[King's Glory] (Male, Level 8 Player): "Yinuo Qingcheng, you ***"
[King's Glory]: "**"
[King's Glory]: "***"
[Yinuo Qingcheng]: "Sorry, I can't quite understand. Could you translate that into human language?"
Just as King's Glory finished editing a ssage by the Revival Spring and was about to send it, he suddenly received a system notification—
"Ding~ The system has detected malicious spamming behavior and explicit language. You have been muted for 1 hour!"
"Fuck!"
As King's Glory was seething with rage, King's Supre and King's Return all erged from the Revival Spring, having died as well.
Seeing his entire team wiped out, King's Glory was even angrier: "Damn it, so many of you couldn't take down one person. You call yourselves professional players? I pay a monthly salary of 100,000, and this is the trash I get??"
At this mont, King's Return quickly said, "Captain, calm down. It's mainly because that guy's stats are too high! Besides his attack power, didn't you notice his defense and health are super high? I'm sure he's fully equipped with Level 25 gear!"
"That's bullshit!" King's Glory was filled with rage: "I had a team of a thousand people farming all night just to barely get a full set of Level 25 gear. What does he have? How could he possibly get tens of thousands of enhancent stones to fully enhance his gear?"
"So what do we do now?" King's Return lowered his head: "He's already killed you twice and dropped two of your pieces of equipnt, and now everyone knows about it..."
King's Glory gritted his teeth and said, "I can level up again, but early two-star equipnt is hard to co by, especially weapons. No matter what, I must get the Silver Moon Bow back. Damn it, of all things to drop, it had to be my best piece of equipnt. What bad luck!"
"Yinuo Qingcheng, mark my words, if I don't kill you and make you delete your account and quit the ga within three days, I'll stream myself eating shit!"
"Captain..." At this mont, King's Supre whispered: "The first ti we encountered Yinuo Qingcheng, you said you didn't believe he could deal forty to fifty damage with one hit, and if he could, you'd stream yourself eating shit..."
"You bastard!" King's Glory kicked King's Supre: "Get lost, you're fired!"
King's Supre: "..."
In the Dark Forest, Zhang Yi, who had killed King's Glory, the captain of King's World, twice, was now famous in Safe Zone No. 886. He ignored the gossip around him, but he was curious about how the people from King's World knew he was in the Dark Forest.
Eventually, Zhang Yi found the answer in the chat records from the regional chat channel twenty minutes ago: it turned out that a solo player in the Dark Forest couldn't resist the temptation of King's Glory's 100,000 bounty and exposed his location.
King's Glory was truly wealthy!
Zhang Yi didn't mind these things and spent a few minutes picking up all the items dropped by the thirty-plus mbers of King's World who died. He counted them.
Since they all had gray nas, they dropped one piece of equipnt upon death 100% of the ti, so he collected a total of 35 pieces of equipnt, all between levels 1-8 and below level 10 enhancent, one-star quality.
Currently, Zhang Yi wasn't interested in these one-star items because he had already obtained seven or eight pieces of level 6-8 one-star equipnt from a thousand demon wolves during an all-night farming session in the Dark Forest. All were unidentified, similar to the equipnt dropped by the players from King's World.
Zhang Yi planned to return to the Safe Zone later and set up a stall to sell them all, as these items, though useless to him, were in high demand by other players.
The Silver Moon Bow was Zhang Yi's biggest gain in terms of equipnt, proving that killing those thirty-plus players wasn't in vain.
Besides that, Zhang Yi was more interested in the coins and enhancent stones they dropped.
He collected a total of 2,000 Copper Coins, equivalent to 20 Silver Coins!
As for enhancent stones, he got over sixty of them.
Checking the ti, it was exactly eight o'clock. Zhang Yi yawned and set off back to Hope Town, leaving behind a group of solo players in the Dark Forest who watched his departing figure, still shaken by the scene of him slaughtering over thirty mbers of King's World alone.
Upon returning to the Safe Zone, Zhang Yi imdiately sought out the NPC owner of the Blacksmith Shop— Ili.
He initiated a conversation.
"Young warrior, I never expected you to actually bring so many wolf pelts. Thank you so much!" Ili exclaid excitedly as he accepted the 100 wolf pelts Zhang Yi traded over.
At the sa ti, a pleasant notification sounded in Zhang Yi's ear—
"Ding~ Congratulations on completing the quest [Collect Wolf Pelts], you have received 2000 EXP, 250 Copper Coins, 15 Level 1 Enhancent Stones, 36 Human Reputation, and the equipnt [Wolf Pelt Coat] 1! Your Affinity Level with [Blacksmith Shop Owner] has increased by 6!"
Just then, another notification sounded—
"Ding~ Player Yinuo Qingcheng, congratulations on surpassing 10 points in Affinity with [Blacksmith Shop Owner], your Affinity Level has increased to Level 1, granting you the privilege: from now on, you can enjoy a 5% discount when forging equipnt at the Blacksmith Shop! The next upgrade requires increasing Affinity to 50 points!"
Affinity Level is a feature in the ga Apocalypse designed to enrich gaplay. Players can gain Affinity with an NPC by completing quests, and reaching a certain level of Affinity can increase the Affinity Level, granting players various benefits.
NPCs are categorized by profession, roughly divided into Civilian, Blacksmith Shop Owner, Innkeeper, Shopkeeper, Appraisal Shop Owner, Guard, City Lord (Mayor), and the Affinity Level is universal throughout the world of Apocalypse.
For example, if a player reaches Level 2 Affinity with the Shopkeeper in the Safe Zone by completing tasks, when they reach level 30 and go to the Main City, their Affinity with the Main City's Shopkeeper will also be Level 2, allowing them to enjoy a 10% discount on potions and equipnt in the shop.
The higher the Affinity Level, the greater the discount. Additionally, players have a chance to receive Hidden Quests from NPCs through a high Affinity Level!
Back to the main topic.
Even with the 2000 EXP from the quest reward, Zhang Yi couldn't level up, as the 8000 EXP required to go from level 9 to 10 was just too high.
As for the [Wolf Pelt Coat], it was a level 9 one-star item, suitable for a stall, and Zhang Yi, who possessed a two-star [Guardian Armor], wasn't interested in it at all.
After submitting the quest, Ili no longer paid attention to Zhang Yi. Normally, players would turn away at this point to find the next NPC to get a quest from.

However, Zhang Yi suddenly rembered a non-mainstream QQ status from his youth: "If you take the initiative, we can have a story."
So, Zhang Yi proactively spoke to Ili: "I have extra wolf pelts here, do you need more?"
As soon as Zhang Yi finished speaking, Ili was pleasantly surprised: "Really, warrior, how many wolf pelts do you have, 100?"
"Yes." Zhang Yi then took out another 100 wolf pelts and handed them to Ili.
"Ding~ Congratulations on completing the quest [Collect Wolf Pelts] for the second ti, you have received 2000 EXP, 50 Copper Coins! Your Affinity with [Blacksmith Shop Owner] has increased by 2!"
After submitting the quest again, the rewards significantly decreased.
Zhang Yi took out another 100 wolf pelts and continued to submit, repeating this process until he had handed over all 1000 wolf pelts he had collected in ten batches. Ili was grinning from ear to ear: "Young warrior, you truly surprise . I never expected you to collect so many wolf pelts for . I don't even know how to thank you!"
Zhang Yi was straightforward: "Then make a piece of equipnt!"
In his previous life, the player who completed this quest ten tis received the ultimate reward of having the Blacksmith Shop Owner tailor a piece of top-quality equipnt for them.
Moreover, it seed that only the first player to complete this ten-part quest could make such a request, while those who followed could only silently accept a rare equipnt reward from Ili.
Sure enough, Ili did not refuse Zhang Yi's request: "No problem, warrior, what kind of equipnt would you like to make for you?"
Zhang Yi thought for a mont and said, "Make a magic staff."
