System Notification: Player [Falling Leaves] successfully defeated the Level 12 Iron Grade BOSS [Cunning Ring Serpent King] ×1, earning 22,500 experience points, leveling up to Level 8, gaining 15 free attribute points, and additionally receiving a reward of 22 reputation points for successfully challenging the Iron Grade BOSS!
Hearing this notification, Yi Tianchen couldn't help but feel overjoyed. Although he hadn't killed the BOSS with a single stab, he had inadvertently caused it to die from a high fall. This would surely go down in the annals of BOSS deaths in Zero Era!
"Damn it, Yi Tianchen! I won't let you off the hook! Why are you just standing there? Get him!"
Zeng Jian, seeing the heavy price he had paid to finally bring the BOSS's health down only to have Yi Tianchen snatch away three levels of experience, was furious beyond measure. He roared and charged at Yi Tianchen.
Yi Tianchen sneered inwardly. At this moment, Zeng Jian was so consumed by rage that he completely forgot about an extremely important matter: looting the spoils. In contrast, Yi Tianchen remained unusually calm; as he put it, once he decided to drop down, he never intended to leave alive.
The worst outcome would simply be getting killed by them; after all, he wouldn't lose any levels. But for Yi Tianchen to just sit there and wait for death would be pointless. If he was going to die, he might as well make it worthwhile.
With the worst-case scenario in mind, Yi Tianchen made no attempt to dodge and instead cast his gaze upon the corpse of the Cunning Ring Serpent King. There were three items: a sword, a hat, and a gray object the size of a watermelon that looked like a tattered bag.
Yi Tianchen's eyes lit up; wasn't this exactly what he was looking for—the gallbladder of the Cunning Ring Serpent King? He hadn't expected it to actually drop. In his preparations, he had even considered the possibility of having to cut it open himself.
Since it was right there for the taking, Yi Tianchen quickly weighed his options. First, he would take the gallbladder; next would be the sword; and lastly, the hat. The Snake Gallbladder was essential for using Identification Technique. As for the sword and hat, in every game, weapons were prioritized over armor of the same level and grade.
Everything seemed complicated but was completed in an instant. With determination in his heart, Yi Tianchen charged forward with the ferocity of a hungry wolf pouncing on its prey.
At that moment, one of Zeng Jian's lackeys stabbed him in the back with a spear. Although it didn't take away much Health Points, the pain made Yi Tianchen wince.
"Damn it! Stop him! Grab the loot!" Seeing this unfold, Zeng Jian suddenly realized what was happening. He pivoted sharply and lunged toward the equipment.
"Bang! Bang!"
With two muffled thuds, both Yi Tianchen and Zeng Jian dove for the items. Yi Tianchen quickly grabbed the Snake Gallbladder with one hand while his other hand reached for the sword.
Zeng Jian immediately snatched up the hat. The two exchanged fierce glares before both kicked at each other with all their might. The force of their kicks sent them both stumbling back over a meter apart—clearly showing how hard they had kicked!
However, this distance allowed Yi Tianchen to narrowly avoid an attack from Overlord Batyen and two other lackeys. But before he could get back on his feet, Overlord Batyen charged at him again, staff raised high with a howl as it came crashing down.
"Looking for death!"
With a cold shout, Yi Tianchen quickly drew out his Venomous Fang Dagger and rolled aside to evade Overlord Batyen's staff. In one fluid motion, he sprang up like a carp leaping from water and slashed his dagger across Overlord Batyen's neck.
Weak Point Attack! -172!
Faced with Yi Tianchen's weak point attack, Overlord Batyen, whose defense and Vitality were already low, trembled as nearly 80% of his Health Points vanished. Yi Tianchen let out a cold laugh; how could he let such an opportunity slip away? With a swift motion of his dagger, he directly eliminated Overlord Batyen.
However, Yi Tianchen soon found himself under attack from Zeng Jian and others, causing his Health Points to plummet dramatically. The fully powered swordsman, Zeng Jian, had terrifying attack power. Although Yi Tianchen had leveled up to level 8, he was besieged by three opponents. Suddenly, everything blurred before him, and he disappeared from the Snake Den.
System Notification: You have been attacked by player 【King's Sword Soul】. Your Health Points are 0; you have died, losing 1 Silver Coin, 1 【Goblin Shoes】, and 1 【Venomous Fang Dagger】!
"Damn..."
Upon hearing the notification, Yi Tianchen felt somewhat Speechless. Losing the Goblin Shoes was one thing, but he hadn't expected to lose the Venomous Fang Dagger as well. Fortunately, he had gained a significant amount of experience from defeating the BOSS and still had the sword he obtained, along with Zeng Jian's weapon, so it wasn't a total loss.
※※※
After respawning, Yi Tianchen quickly checked his surroundings. Confirming it was safe, he excitedly rushed into the Identification Center.
Seeing Yi Tianchen, the Appraiser paused for a moment before hastening his work, dismissing two other players without ceremony. It seemed that the arrival of Yi Tianchen had sped up his identification process; the two players shot him a fierce glare as they left.
With a helpless smile, Yi Tianchen hadn't even reached the counter when he heard a commotion outside—clearly, those unfortunate two had been robbed. Turning to look, he felt a shiver run down his spine as he saw a player sprawled on the ground, desperately clutching the threshold of the Identification Center, screaming in terror and helplessness.
Unfortunately for him, one of his legs was still outside and was quickly grabbed and forcibly dragged away. This was the omnipresent violence of Zero Era. Aside from the System rooms and a few specific areas, any place could be subject to forced PK.
Yi Tianchen even noticed several deep claw marks on the stone threshold of the Identification Center, a truly shocking sight!
"Hey, you’ve grown again! It seems… you’ve obtained what I need!" The Appraiser looked at Yi Tianchen with bright eyes, revealing an impatient expression.
"Of course! Just look at who’s here," Yi Tianchen stepped forward and presented the massive Snake Gallbladder from the Cunning Ring Serpent King, waving it in front of the Appraiser. "According to our initial agreement, I’ve brought you the Snake Gallbladder. Now you must teach me the Identification Technique!"
"Heh heh, good lad! You really have some skills. Very well; anyone who can handle the Cunning Ring Serpent King is worthy of being my disciple. As per our agreement, I will teach you the Identification Technique!” The Appraiser, ignoring any displeasure from Yi Tianchen, waved his hand as if identifying equipment. A beam of white light suddenly descended upon Yi Tianchen.
System Notification: 【Appraiser Balfe】 wishes to teach you the skill 【Identification Technique】. Do you accept?
"Accept! Of course I accept!" Hearing this prompt filled him with joy; he immediately chose to accept it as the white light merged into his body.
System Notification: You have successfully become a disciple of 【Appraiser Balfe】 and learned the skill 【Identification Technique】. Your affinity with this NPC has increased by 1000 points, and you have received an additional reward of 5 points in Luck Value!
"Hey, there are indeed quite a few benefits!"
Yi Tianchen smiled faintly; the favorability of NPCs was extremely important. Under the same circumstances, the higher the favorability, the greater the chance that an NPC would entrust you with a quest. This time, he had gained a surprising 1000 points.
As for Luck Value, it was something that money couldn't buy!
It determined the drop rates when players fought monsters and the production of high-grade equipment. Of course, this probability was worth pondering. Moreover, players had to rely on their own luck to challenge the system's drop rates, which was inherently a foolish endeavor.
"Master, I accidentally obtained something and would like you to take a look!" Coming back to his senses from the surprise of acquiring Identification Technique, Yi Tianchen handed over the Cunning Ring Serpent King’s gallbladder with both hands and directly got to the point.
"Oh? What is it? Let me see!" After successfully becoming his apprentice, the Appraiser's attitude towards Yi Tianchen changed significantly. After taking the Snake Gallbladder, he immediately asked.
Yi Tianchen nodded and was about to pull out the Mysterious Bow. However, at that moment, several people suddenly barged into the Identification Center, cursing loudly and appearing quite furious.
"Damn it, how can we run into this!"
"Dammit, Yi Tianchen, you bastard!"
