Chapter 378

with outstanding natural talent, still honing themselves every day in various high-difficulty dungeons.

All their strength was fought out against the Grim Reaper.

The other type

had a very high professional rating,

similar to the early Qin Qin Xuejun,

protected by elders.

Every dungeon they entered was carefully calculated,

and they never encountered danger.

And this reconnaissance girl was the latter!

She thought she was the protagonist of the world,

and that the world revolved around her.

When it came to uniting against the Dragon Kingdom's chief,

she was the first to stand up and support it.

The world only needed one protagonist, and that was her!

Coming here to sneak an attack on the Insect Mother,

she had never even thought about failure!

And now,

a level 80 lord-level monster was looking at her with a ferocious face.

She was so stunned that she stood rooted to the spot,

even forgetting to take out her weapon.

"Mom..."

*Splat!

Another Sub-Liquid Demon Insect emerged from the soil beside her

and bit the reconnaissance girl's head in one gulp.

"Ah!!!"

The reconnaissance girl's screams

were soon drowned out by the large-scale wailing.

*Splat, splat, splat!

More and more Sub-Liquid Demon Insects crawled out of the soil,

continuously tearing at the professionals.

Level 80 lord-level monsters,

over a hundred in number.

Without the pressure of the insect swarm,

slaughtering this group of professionals, who averaged level 60,

was simply too easy!

Weiluote looked at the ferocious mouthparts of the Sub-Liquid Demon Insects,

his pupils dilating,

and he muttered: "Who said the Dragon Kingdom didn't have underground insects..."

"Ah!!!"

"Master, seventeen human professionals have been wiped out underground."

"The liquid of the Sub-Liquid Demon Insects is still spreading."

"It is estimated that in forty-seven minutes,"

"the vast majority of the insect swarm underground will be wiped out."

"Of course, there might be a certain number left, but it won't exceed a thousand."

Li Yao withdrew his right hand,

a faint smile on his face.

"Only found seventeen?"

"It seems some smart people left early."

Li Yao shook his head,

no longer thinking about these matters.

As for those professionals,

he had never taken them to heart.

Even if a hundred or a thousand more came, they would be far less of a threat than the Demon Insect race!

While closing his eyes to rest,

another golden light flashed.

In this battle,

to say nothing else, the experience points earned were insane.

Above level 50,

if one were to grind dungeons to level up,

even at Li Yao's speed,

it would take at least a week to level up once!

The war had lasted less than half a day so far,

and Li Yao had already leveled up for the third time,

reaching level 59.

"In this way, I need to consider in advance"

"the quest materials needed for the fourth turn."

Li Yao was a bit of a perfectionist;

every time he changed classes, he wanted to do it perfectly.

The golden light on Li Yao's body

was naturally seen by Ji Nie Yuan and the others,

who all pouted in envy.

Back during the contention battle,

their levels were higher than Li Yao's!

Now they hadn't even reached level 40,

while Li Yao was almost level 60!

This leveling speed was simply unheard of!

Li Yao stood up

and stretched,

not looking at all like someone who had just experienced a war.

According to the consciousness sent back by the Blue Bird,

this insect swarm battle could be considered to be drawing to a close.

Large batches of insects were retreating like a tide.

With this kind of quantity, it was almost impossible to kill them all;

he could only let Kazike and the others kill as many as they could.

Li Yao glanced at the data panel.

Kazike's strength stat had officially broken through one hundred thousand!

His strength stat was no weaker than that of an average sixth-turn professional.

The only gap was the agility stat.

But with 【The World is Close at Hand】 existing,

converting the strength stat into the agility stat and inheriting it on Kai'Sa,

even a sixth-turn professional

would be worth a fight!

At the very least,

if he encountered that sixth-turn lord-level monster in the Titan territory again,

he wouldn't have to run away so miserably!

"Everyone, you've all recovered enough, right?" Li Yao said with a smile. "It's time to harvest!"

In a battle of ten million,

if they had to collect the dropped items of the insect swarm,

it would take ten people at least a week!

Fortunately,

the professionals who could appear here

were not people who hadn't seen the world.

What kind of equipment could thirty or forty-level ordinary monsters drop?

At most,

they would collect the equipment that had obvious luster as they passed by.

Shang Shang Ziyu threw the last piece of equipment into the 'equipment pile' in front of him

and clapped his hands: "All the equipment from the professionals we could find is here."

"It's not that much, is it?" Hunting Xia Xia said, her eyes shining with stars, speaking against her heart.

"These top professionals from various countries all have two to three pieces of untradeable epic equipment."

Yao Yao Shanxue touched her chin and said seriously:

"So, this quantity is normal."

As she spoke, Yao Yao Shanxue walked up to Li Yao and handed two bags of various items into Li Yao's hands.

There were rings, wristbands, belts—all types.

They were all storage items commonly used by professionals.

Yao Yao Shanxue pointed to one bag and said:

"The items in this bag are storage items that can be opened now."

"This one requires an alchemist to break the spatial seal."

Li Yao took a look and handed the openable storage items back to Yao Yao Shanxue.

"Senior Sister Yao, you've already passed level 60 and entered the fourth turn, right?"

"Can you help me find if there are any items that increase the difficulty of the class-change quest?"

"Of course." Yao Yao Shanxue took the storage rings and stepped aside.

In the Border Trial,

except for the Dragon Kingdom,

the professionals of other countries

generally had levels between 50 and 60.

There was a high probability

that they would have some items on hand to increase quest difficulty.

"As for this equipment," Li Yao looked at everyone with a faint smile.

They were all eager to try, yet extremely restrained.

Even the usually steady Senior Sister Yao was the same.

Professionals of their strength

weren't unable to grind for platinum or purple-gold equipment,

but because

this was the Border Trial,

and their levels had increased to some extent during the battle with the insect swarm.

If they could change into a piece of higher-level equipment, their strength would increase!

But the equipment was Li Yao's—

no one would deny that.

That was why they suppressed the desire in their hearts and didn't feel embarrassed to speak up.

Li Yao laughed:

"You guys pick. I don't have a use for this equipment."

"Oh? How could we be so embarrassed?" Hunting Xia Xia grabbed a wristband.

This was something she had been eyeing for a long time;

she couldn't let anyone else snatch it.

"That wouldn't be good," Mishaluo also picked up a heavy chest piece and kept measuring it against his chest.

This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content!

Mishaluo had always been keen on saving his own life.

"Then I won't be polite! Thank you, Senior Brother!" Qin Qin Xuejun got a staff.

This staff was a level 40 purple-gold piece of equipment.

She had only just reached level 40 today; although she hadn't changed classes yet, she could still equip it.

Zhang Zhang Yucheng stared at a heavy sword and said: "If it weren't for Brother Li Yao, I would have had trouble even surviving."

"How could I be embarrassed to take your equipment?"

Li Yao ignored his comment and asked suspiciously: "You can still use a heavy sword?"

"As long as it's a sword, I can use it, just not as skillfully as a long sword."

"Then why are you still staring at it?"

Zhang Zhang Yucheng explained: "This is Xia Erma's weapon. When I fought him, I could feel that his sword technique was even higher than mine."

Hearing this, Li Yao looked at the heavy sword's stats.

Sure enough,

there was one stat:

it could increase weapon technique by 30%.

For a sword master like Zhang Zhang Yucheng, the improvement was not ordinary!

Others had higher technique than him,

so he suspected it was a weapon issue.

"You kid is really confident!" Li Yao laughed and scolded, then tossed the heavy sword to Zhang Zhang Yucheng.

Zhang Zhang Yucheng caught it, about to put it back in the equipment pile.

"Keep it. This equipment isn't a gift for you."

"After the Border Trial ends, I will hold a trade fair, just like the one in Sangyu City."

"If you find them useful, you can come and support it then."

"Use them for now. In the Border Trial, every bit of strength you can gain counts."

Once these words were spoken, Zhang Zhang Yucheng didn't decline,

putting the heavy sword away.

"Killing professionals from other countries and taking their equipment to hold a trade fair..."

"If those countries knew, wouldn't they be pissed off!"

"You kid really knows how to play!"

Ji Nie Yuan laughed: "Since that's the case, I won't be polite. These boots add a lot of agility and can improve my fault tolerance."
