Chapter 6: Two Hammers Instant-Kill Giant Spider

ie quests for slaying mutated cats and dogs readily available in Safe Zones, this one appears to be no different at first glance. On the surface, it's just an ordinary newbie quest. However, only Zhan...Using just 25 enhancement stones, an item was upgraded from white-board equipment to the highest level! 25!

This is the ability that countless high-end players in their past lives dreamed of having, and Zhang Yi, who was reborn, actually possesses it.

Although upgrading a low-level, 1-star piece of equipment from the early stages to level 25 might not be worthwhile for most players due to the low base attributes of such items, even at its highest upgrade, the improvement would be minimal. However, for Zhang Yi, who possesses the "Godly Enhancement" talent, he doesn't mind this at all.

At least with this hammer, which deals 25 damage, Zhang Yi could reach the safe zone unimpeded. Zhang Yi remembered that in each area, the first player to reach the safe zone would receive a generous system reward.

Even if this piece of equipment is a temporary one, when Zhang Yi levels up and gets better weapons later, it'll only take 25 enhancement stones at most. With a god-level enhancement in hand, you can have any piece of level 25 gear!

Worth mentioning is that this hammer, strengthened to level 25, unlocks the talent 【Severe Wound】. This is truly impressive as it increases the wearer's attack damage by 30 points, which effectively adds 30 points to Zhang Yi's attack power. It even surpasses the main attributes of this piece of equipment!

With this unique talent, Zhang Yi's output capacity has been greatly enhanced.

I checked the status bar, my attack power had risen to 23 points. Combined with [Severe Wound], I'm afraid two swings will be enough to kill a level 2 bio-spider!

Don't say it needs to be used up to level 10, this hammer should still be fine at level 5.

Besides this one-star treasure chest, Zhang Yi also found a copper coin beside the corpse of that level 2 bio-spider.

This is the universal currency of the Tianqi world, and also a very important resource. It's just that this newbie monster is quite stingy.

1 gold coin = 100 silver coins = 10,000 copper coins.

Thus, Zhang Yi picked up the only copper coin and left the waiting hall.

According to the mini-map distribution, it is not a wise choice to leave the waiting hall and reach the safe zone.

When we returned to the train tracks, our starting point, we saw a large group of players from Zhang Yi's batch fighting with those level 1-3 biochemical spiders. They had completely forgotten about their survival mission, [Searching for a Safe Zone], and were lost in the joy of slaying monsters.

After all, apart from Zhang Yi, all the players were experiencing a virtual reality game with 100% immersion for the first time. The thrill and excitement of such an experience could definitely be addictive.

Remember Zhang Yi from the last life, he also spent half an hour here brushing spiders before remembering to do the survival task...

Opening the map, Zhang Yi followed the arrow on the map westward along the track.

Just then, a white light flashed, and a level 3 bio-engineered spider spawned in front of Zhang Yi!

Because the refresh distance was too short, the level 3 bio spider that almost refreshed right beside Zhang Yi's feet gave Zhang Yi no time to react, and he stomped on it...

"Roar!"

With a roar, the bio-engineered spider, who had been kicked for no reason, was immediately drawn to Zhang Yi's attention. It opened its mouth and spat a glob of green venom towards Zhang Yi.

"Splat~"

Venom splashed onto Zhang Yi's chest.

"Ding~ You were attacked by a bio-spider, losing 13 points of life!"

The 3rd grade biochemical spider's attack power is simply too high. Even Zhang Yi, who has no defensive gear and a 15-star strength growth, can't withstand its damage. His health bar drops by one-sixth.

With Zhang Yi's 75 points of Qi and Blood, he could at most withstand this biochemical spider's six attacks.

At this time, the players who were hacking at level 1 bio-spiders behind saw Zhang Yi had provoked a big group, and they all cast sympathetic glances his way.

"That kid is so brave, he even dares to provoke a level 3 spider!"

"Yeah, that's it. Game over~."

Just as several players were discussing behind him, Zhang Yi raised his large iron hammer and smashed it down onto the head of the level 3 giant spider in front of him.

Bang—

-47

A crisp sound rang out as a damage value popped above the bio-spider's head, instantly leaving the several players watching from the back dumbfounded.

With Zhang Yi's attack power of 23, he could actually only deal 17 points of damage to a level 3 bio-spider with 6 defense points. The [Serious Injury] talent of the Great Hammer contributed 30 points of damage.

Dodging the second attack of the bio-spider, Zhang Yi swung his hammer again —

-94 critical hit!

Character burst, golden critical damage, two hammer strikes instant kill.

With a roar, the level 3 bio-spider, boasting a whopping 130 HP, was seemingly invincible in the eyes of surrounding players. However, Zhang Yi effortlessly dispatched it with two blows, leaving its lifeless body on the ground.

"Ding~ You killed a bio-spider, experience points 6!"

As the saying goes, high risk, high reward. The experience gained from one level 3 bio-engineered spider is equivalent to three times that of a level 2 bio-engineered spider!

Besides, this level-3 Biohazard Spider also dropped two copper coins and a fist-sized silver stone.

[Level 1 Enhancement Stone]:

Description: This can be used to enhance 1-star quality equipment, boosting the player's combat power (two stones of the same level can be synthesized into a higher level enhancement stone)……

My luck is pretty good today, I even got a reinforcement stone!

Then, Zhang Yi picked up the copper coins and the strengthening stones, then carried his heavy hammer, stepping on the corpse of the level 3 bio spider, and walked towards the Hope Town safe zone, leaving a group of players in disarray in the darkness.

Player A: “I... did I just see things”

Player B: “Are you kidding me I must be blind! What the... how did two swings kill a level 3 Bio-Spider Is this even human!”

Player C: "Cheat codes!"

With this M25 hammer in his hand, Zhang Yi could completely dominate the train station. Using these level 1-3 bio-spiders, he could raise his own level to above level 3.

In his past life, Zhang Yi might have done this, but now, Zhang Yi has bigger goals; he doesn't care about these small gains.

For over twenty minutes, Zhang Yi ran in a straight line along the railway tracks at top speed. He climbed over the fence and crossed a hillside. Standing on the summit, he finally saw Hope Town nestled at the foot of the mountain.

The town was surrounded by a wall of concrete. From a high vantage point, one could see that the town inside was peaceful and tranquil, while outside the walls, in the ruins of the city, countless bio-monsters gathered. Without the protection of the wall, these bio-monsters would have surely stormed into the town long ago, slaughtering all the survivors within.

There are currently no regional announcements, which means that Zhang Yi's area 886 newbie safe zone has not yet had any players enter. The achievement for being the first to enter the safe zone is still available.

Thus, Zhang Yi dragged the heavy iron hammer and walked towards Hope Town in the darkness.nse)Job Restriction: Archer (Can be equipped by non-transfered classes)It is said to be a top-tier weapon forged by a master craftsman of the human race on a full moon night using rare silvery ore. Th...
