Chapter 14: Arriving in the outskirts, this is a chaotic place

Jiang Chen had done his homework thoroughly, the monster strength in the outskirts of Baiyun City was very high.

Of course, the experience value gained from killing them was quite considerable.

Moreover, these monsters could also drop loot; if they dropped high-value equipment and materials, I would really have made a profit.

However, since I saw the Profession Trading Hall, Jiang Chen still wanted to go in and take a look first.

After finishing leveling in the outskirts, the dropped items definitely had to be brought to the Profession Hall to be sold.

Of course, the Profession Exchange inside was not just for completing transactions.

Even some quests could be accepted in there, after entering.

In the hall, rows of trading machines were arranged, and most transactions could be completed on the trading machines.

Jiang Chen found an unused machine, and on the permission verification interface he pressed his fingerprint.

Instantly, light began to shine on the screen.

"Imperial Citizen Identity Verification in progress..."

"Identity verification successful"

"Name: Jiang Chen"

"Citizen Level: 1 star"

"Contribution: 0"

Only professionals can successfully use the trading machine; Jiang Chen's permission is only 1 star, the lowest permission.

Different permissions grant different functions usable in the Profession Trading Hall; to gain more functions and permissions, one must increase one's contribution.

But given Jiang Chen's current ability, these are still too far away.

He simply glanced at the items in the Profession Trading Hall; the variety was extremely complete, whether weapons, equipment, or even materials, everything was there.

But the prices, well, they were speechless.

They were not something ordinary people could bear; Jiang Chen looked at his wallet, which was too shabby.

Here, the items were actually unaffordable for a single piece.

Equipment levels range from low to high as Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold.

This is the permission he can currently see, after all he only has a few dozen gold coins in his pocket, he can't even afford the cheapest Black Iron equipment.

However, Jiang Chen's purpose in entering the Profession Trading Hall was to see what price the materials dropped in the outskirts could sell for.

The monster level in the outskirts of North Gate is above Level 10, but it's not absolute; some monsters' wandering routes are very extensive.

Since we've come to the Profession Hall, let's also take a look at the quests for those materials.

Jiang Chen looked, and they were all material collection quests.

For example, collecting Moon Grass, 20 stalks make a set, and a pile's price is 50 gold coins.

Also Moon Rabbit Fur, Ancient Beast Bone, etc.; the quantity requirements are not few, and the reward is similar.

Many Life Class professionals want to improve their skill proficiency, and they are very much in need of these low, intermediate, and high-level materials.

On one hand, these materials allow them to improve skill proficiency; on the other hand, they can sell the processed items.

As the quality of the produced items increases, income will also become more considerable.

Until he saw a quest on the trading machine, Jiang Chen's eyes lit up slightly.

"Finally, I've seen an interesting one..."

"Dungeon Quest: Clear the Jade Mine Cave"

"Quest requirement: Defeat the BOSS King Goblin, obtain the Crystal Core (only dropped by BOSS of Nightmare Difficulty or higher in dungeons)"

"Completion reward: 100,000 gold coins"

This final quest reward made Jiang Chen unable to resist feeling tempted.

A hundred thousand gold coins; surely this quest isn't that easy to complete.

Jade Stone

Mine Cave, this location Jiang Chen had learned in his geography textbook, is about 30 kilometers from Baiyun City.

But he currently has no plan to go there and complete it; his level is only Divine Power Level 7, and he needs an Instance of Nightmare Difficulty.

Normal, Nightmare, Hell — the three major difficulties of Instances; Nightmare is already much harder than normal Instances.

Jiang Chen is willing but unable; he doesn't need to think about it now, at the very least he needs a decent party to clear it.

After a brief browse, Jiang Chen came to the North Gate exit management office.

At the city gate, the guards stationed there had expressionless faces, holding weapons to maintain order.

Jiang Chen took out his authorization document proving his identity for the administrator to see.

"Student?"

The administrator furrowed his brow.

"Only level 7?"

Although he had many doubts in his heart, Jiang Chen still had authorization permission, so he let him through.

He muttered to himself, how could Baiyun No. 1 Middle School release a level 7 student to the outskirts?

Too dangerous!

"Freshman, although you have authorization to leave the city, you are only level 7, I still need to remind you: stay safe, don't overreach!"

Jiang Chen felt warm in his heart; these guards were still very responsible.

"If you encounter a strong enemy you can't beat, retreat quickly; preserving life comes first!"

Saying that, the guard patiently gave Jiang Chen a rough overview of the habits and characteristics of some common monsters in the outskirts of Baiyun City.

"Thank you, I will pay attention to safety!"

After stepping onto the teleportation array leaving the city, a white light flashed and Jiang Chen appeared in the outskirts of the North Gate.

As soon as he appeared, the bleak, desolate sight before him made him slightly startled.

Thinking that he had grown up in Baiyun City for 18 years, his heart

He couldn't help but feel moved.

Fortunately, those powerful beings protected the human race, giving the human race a future.

No longer thinking about anything else, Jiang Chen lifted his foot and walked into the wilderness.

The surrounding atmosphere began to feel very oppressive, and even by the side of the path he saw quite a bit of flowing blood.

In some dense forests there were also the roars of wild beasts, and even many professionals could be seen gathering materials and killing monsters to level up.

As he walked farther and farther away, the outline of Baiyun City behind him gradually became invisible.

He began to summon skeleton warriors, first summoning one.

Now Jiang Chen had summoned a total of 28 skeleton warriors, but having just arrived in the outskirts, he wanted to first test the monsters' strength.

Soon, in the dense forest, he spotted a monster and Jiang Chen examined it.

"Monster Name: Goblin Minion"

"Level: 10"

"Strength: 115"

"Agility: 51"

"Spirit: 48"

"Physique: 110"

This ugly-looking goblin was waving the big stick in its hand, wandering around.

Its strength attribute is the highest, and its health is not low either; an ordinary professional would have to spend some effort to kill it.

But the skeleton warriors summoned by Jiang Chen now have their mental attribute at 750.

The strength of the Goblin Minion is no match at all; the monsters mainly found in the outskirts of Baiyun City's North Gate are goblins.

It can be said that this place is the territory of their entire clan.

"Go, kill that monster!"

Jiang Chen gave an order to the skeleton warrior.

The skeleton warrior swung its axe, faithfully carrying out the command.

It quickly rushed up to the Goblin Minion, and the Goblin Minion, seeing someone actively coming forward to provoke,

He swung up the big

The stick directly smashed down, and the skeleton warrior did not dodge.

He took the hit head-on, and the goblin's 115 strength attribute caused the skeleton warrior to be slightly affected.

But the skeleton warrior didn't wait for the Goblin Minion to continue attacking, and with its axe it fiercely chopped down.
