For Lin Chen, only having one usable eight-star crafted equipment was undoubtedly bad news.
Very bad, very bad!
What was the most urgent thing now?
Money!
Then, he would invest all his money into the game to increase his strength.
It was not only for himself. It was also for everyone around him that he trusted. Lin Chen hoped that everyone would become stronger.
After all, he had seen how terrifying it would be after the game invaded reality!
Level 120 Bosses were everywhere.
There was even a Level 150 Boss.
Up until now, the New World online game had only started to release Level 120.
Even if Lin Chen worked hard to level up in this world for more than ten days, he could only reach this level at most.
He was not confident that he could fight against those unknown existences alone!
Of course, Lin Chen was not a saint. Even if he wanted to be a saint and tell everyone that he was reborn, no one would believe him. Therefore, Lin Chen could only drag as many along as he could.
Including Liu Mengyao, Zhang Chunlin, Bai Shuyi, and even guild leader Snow Foam, whom he had never met before, Lin Chen supported them to keep their accounts and get good equipment.
As for Lin Chen himself, and Liu Mengyao, Lin Chen wanted their accounts to be two top-notch accounts!
Therefore, eight-star crafted equipment was not enough!
However, time waits for no man.
Lin Chen knew he had to go to the South-Heaven Gate.
Neither he nor Liu Mengyao had cleared the Southern Heavenly Gate Instance Dungeon.
If they cleared the dungeon for the first time, with a rating not lower than S, they would have at least ten times the EXP bonus. It would probably allow them to level up at least one level. Moreover, in a level 100 dungeon where they could farm EXP, visiting Southern Heavenly Gate three times a day was indispensable.
Time was of the essence.
Lin Chen chose two seven-star crafted items that were suitable for him and gave the Moon Goddess' Blessing to Liu Mengyao.
Now, Lin Chen's attributes were even stronger.
Even though seven-star crafted equipment was still terrible by Lin Chen's standards, in the past, seven-star equipment was already top-notch.
In addition, Lin Chen's four Divine Mage Equipment had all been strengthened to +18!

After the four parts of the Mage Divine Set were gathered, a set attribute would appear on a piece of equipment, producing a corresponding effect. However, one could only choose one piece of equipment to activate. Lin Chen would definitely choose to activate the weapon, which was the set attribute on the staff.
Obtaining the set attribute meant that all skills would be upgraded by one level!
Although this attribute did not look good, it was actually very powerful. Take Lin Chen's Wind Blade skill for example. It had already reached the maximum level of Level 10, and its damage coefficient was 1.75. It was instantaneous.
And now, Lin Chen's Wind Blade skill damage coefficient become 2x!
This meant that Lin Chen's skill damage had increased by one-eighth.
Right now, Lin Chen's attributes were extremely powerful.
[Forest Dawn]

70,000 magic attack!
In the Wind Mage class, he was already the number one.
There was damage.
Moreover, his agility was maxed out, and his pure running speed entered 100 meters in four seconds.
He was fast, could run fast, and had a strong survival ability.
Coupled with the damage output of the mythical Vermillion Bird, Lin Chen believed that bringing Liu Mengyao along was enough to challenge the Southern Heavenly Gate dungeon!
He did as he wanted.
Lin Chen partied with Liu Mengyao and teleported to the entrance of the Heavenly Palace.
The South-Heaven Gate was right here.
It was located in the sky.
Only by passing the Southern Heavenly Gate Instance Dungeon could one obtain the pass to the Heavenly Palace.
"New World" seemed to be a game that was a fusion of eastern fantasy and western fantasy. For example, the storyline of the Southern Heavenly Gate dungeon was the story of a leader of the Giant Ape Clan who led the entire Giant Ape Clan to the Southern Heavenly Gate.
It looked like a Journey to the West, but the content was completely different.
The content of the story looked brand new, and the giant ape was actually not a monkey.
Lin Chen did not pay too much attention to the story of the Instance Dungeon. He was already familiar with the strategy. Before entering the Instance Dungeon, Lin Chen clicked on the First Clear ranking. On it was the time record for the First Clear of the Instance Dungeon.
There was a party ranking, as well as a duo ranking.
There was also a total speed ranking.
There were six people in the first place team. It took fifty-two minutes.
At present, no one could break this record. Although many teams could clear it in less than half an hour, it was not their first time clearing it, so their results could not be on the rankings.
However, Lin Chen planned to surpass them in this ranking today!
And it had to be surpassed!
That was because the reward for being first on the rankings was a hundred times more experience.
There was also a Supreme Gift Box for everyone.
This Supreme Gift Box would definitely drop top-notch equipment that was greater or equal to the current level!
He could even choose pet equipment!
