Perhaps it was destiny that brought Lu Ming back to life in Linhai City.
Coincidentally, Ye Ling'er's hotown is also Linhai City!
In the Sky Abyss world, the novice areas are divided according to real-world cities.
The area corresponding to Linhai City is the 1947th novice area, Moonfall Town!
All players who log in for the first ti in Linhai City will automatically be placed in Moonfall Town.
This ans that Ye Ling'er's brother, Ye Chen, will log into the sa novice area as Lu Ming, Moonfall Town, at 8 AM today!
So Lu Ming's plan for revenge is to wait for Ye Chen in Moonfall Town and ambush him when he logs in!
Ye Chen just turned 18 today and has just registered his Sky Abyss account.
While he's still a novice with no strength to speak of, it's the perfect ti for revenge!
***
After finishing his late-night snack, Lu Ming returned to the internet cafe.
He checked the ti: it was already 1 AM.
Whether it was the excitent from the power of his ten-star account or the intense desire for revenge against Ye Chen, Lu Ming felt no sleepiness.
He booted up a computer and logged back in.
[Ding~ Welco back to the Sky Abyss world, esteed ten-star account player, Nether!]
Every ti he heard this system prompt, it made him feel invigorated!
It proved that as long as you are strong enough, even the system will treat you with respect!
Lu Ming rembered that in his previous life, his one-star account had no prompts when logging into Sky Abyss.
He glanced at his current status: Level 5, 83.5%.
Doing another ordinary task, even reaching the tenth tier, seed aningless and ti-consuming.
Compared to that, the highest reward from a tenth-tier task, a piece of ordinary Black Iron Equipnt, was far less interesting to Lu Ming than the Moon Demon set equipnt.
"Might as well go straight to the Moon Demon Sanctuary dungeon. If I'm lucky, I might get a piece of Moon Demon set equipnt, completing a three-piece set, which would give
a better chance at the Level 8 Scarlet Zone dungeon.
Plus, the chance of getting a skill scroll from the dungeon is much higher than in the wild. If I can't get equipnt, a skill scroll would be nice too."
With this in mind, before leaving Moonfall Town, Lu Ming visited the town's pharmacy.
While other novice players had only a few copper coins scattered in their pockets, Lu Ming already had a fortune of 4 silver coins and 28 copper coins!
So, he bought 10 sets, 100 bottles, of the Level 1 Ordinary Mana Potion, which cost 3 copper coins per bottle (restores 30 mana instantly and 2 mana per second for 15 seconds, with a 60-second cooldown).
He spent 3 silver coins in one go.
Though a bit reluctant, Lu Ming understood the principle of investing to gain higher returns.
These mana potions would allow Lu Ming to fight without needing to rest and recover mana, saving a lot of ti and speeding up dungeon runs.
Once ready, Lu Ming left Moonfall Town through the south gate, following the map to the Level 6-8 dungeon, Moon Demon Sanctuary.
The roadside monsters were sparse, so there was no need for a big fuss.
Lu Ming summoned ten Undead Warriors to clear the roadside monsters.
***
Twenty minutes later, as he reached his destination, a beam of golden light shone down on him.
[Ding~ Congratulations on reaching Level 6! All five attributes
1, Mana
10, Health Points
20, Free Attribute Points
3! Next level requires 1800 Experience Points!]
He t the entry level requirent for the Moon Demon Sanctuary dungeon.
As planned.
He allocated all 3 free attribute points to Spirit, bringing it to 21 points.
anwhile, with War Tread upgraded to Lv6, the ally attack boost effect increased to (Trickster 10% attack
20).
The skill's continuous consumption also increased from 2 points per second to 3 points!
The 2.1 mana recovery per second from 21 Spirit couldn't cover the skill consumption.
Luckily, Lu Ming had prepared ten sets of mana potions!
Of course, potions were just a temporary fix; to solve this issue, he needed to reach Level 8 and equip the Moon Demon set.
Looking ahead.
A massive purple light curtain, seven or eight ters high, shone in a ruined site.
This was the only entrance to the Level 6-8 dungeon, Moon Demon Sanctuary!
On either side of the entrance stood two fully ard Level 20 NPC soldiers.
At this mont, many players were milling around outside the dungeon.
Although their levels were all between 6 and 8, it was easy to tell who were the newcors and who were the veterans who had been around for one or two years or more, deliberately keeping their level at 8.
Newcors were clueless, their eyes filled with naive stupidity.
Like fresh college graduates entering society, eager for a master to lead them through the dungeon.
Veterans, on the other hand, had sharp, predatory eyes, looking at newcors like a pack of hungry wolves on the hunt!
"Hey there, need a ride? Our professional team offers great prices!"
"Hey~ Feeling hot, little sister? Want big brother to take you through the dungeon?"
Newcors had nowhere to hide from their gaze.
But no one approached Lu Ming.
Because Lu Ming's eyes were even sharper than theirs...
Thus, Lu Ming smoothly reached the two guards at the dungeon entrance.
Only to find out: solo entry into the dungeon was not allowed!
"Almost forgot, most dungeons in Sky Abyss require a five-person team..."
Just as Lu Ming's gaze swept over the crowd, looking for suitable teammates.
He saw an 8th-level, bearded middle-aged warrior with the ID [AAA Moon Demon No.2], carrying a large sword on his shoulder, whistling at three girls walking by: "Hey girls, want uncle to take you through the dungeon? 1249 stable seventh-tier clears of Moon Demon Sanctuary, checkable records!
Normally 300 per person, how about 250 each for you three?"
The three girls hesitated.
After a while, one of them, a quiet-looking girl with a low ponytail and glasses, timidly asked the warrior uncle, "H-how about 240?"
Moon Demon No.2 pretended to think for a mont before replying, "Alright, alright, I'll make a bit less this ti, just to make friends! Let's add each other as friends, and next ti you co to , I'll give you the biggest discount!"
The girls thought they got a bargain and were overjoyed.
"Thank you, uncle!"
Just as they were about to add each other as friends and transfer money.
A voice suddenly rang out: "I'll take you through the dungeon, and it'll only cost you 100 each."
The girls looked towards the source of the voice and saw that it was Lu Ming who had spoken.
