Lin Feng immediately searched for information related to blacksmiths.
[Life Occupation Certificate: Junior Blacksmith]
After use, you can learn the following skills: primary forging, primary refining, equipment decomposition, and primary strengthening.
Price: 1000 credits.
…
Refining is used to purify ore, decomposing equipment can turn unwanted white equipment into equipment essence, and strengthening is to use equipment essence to increase the equipment strengthening level.
It's quite cheap, just buy it!
After using it, Lin Feng obtained the life profession, blacksmith.
Spend another 500 to get the design for the Glimmering Breastplate, and you'll have some credits left.
Next, he spent 2,250 credit points to clear out all the waist bags in the trading house, a total of 45, and added 450 backpack space.
Then I bought 20 sets of iron ore and 30 sets of animal skins, 100 in each set, spending a total of credit points.
Everything was ready. Lin Feng left the trading house, found a hotel, and rented a room for 200 credit points for 24 hours, which also came with air conditioning.
Sitting on the sofa, Lin Feng couldn't wait to take out the design drawings and learn them, then took out the materials and started making equipment.
[Ding! Forging successful! Obtained Glimmer Breastplate*1]
[Ding! Forging successful! Obtained Glimmer Breastplate*1]
…
After a few hours, Lin Feng wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The materials are all used up.
One thousand pieces of materials were prepared, but only 832 pieces of Glimmer Breastplates were forged, with a forging success rate of about 83%.
Then it started to devour like crazy!
[Ding! Devoured successfully! Armor +25, Intelligence +12, Experience Gained +5%]
[Ding! Swallowed successfully...]
…
In half an hour, all of them were devoured.
And his experience gained at this time has accumulated to a terrifying 4455%. The original 5 points of experience per second, after the bonus, it is 227.75 points of experience per second.
The experience calculation in the demonized world is like this. Except for bosses and monsters in certain copies, most monsters provide experience based on their levels. For example, a level 180 monster only provides 180 experience points.
This is equivalent to killing a level 227 monster per second, which is quite outrageous.
The calculation of experience required for upgrading is: 1,000 experience points are required to upgrade from level 1 to level 2, and the experience points required for each higher level increase by 1,000. The experience points required to upgrade from level 29 to level 30 are 2w9.
But after the first transformation, to upgrade from level 30 to level 31, 100,000 experience points are needed. The experience points required for each higher level increase by 10,000. It takes 290,000 experience points to upgrade from level 59 to level 60.
Similarly, upgrading from level 60 to level 61 requires 1 million experience points, and upgrading from level 90 to level 91 requires 1 million experience points.
He is now level 14, and the experience required to upgrade is increasing. He gains 227 experience points per second, so the experience bar is visibly increasing.
In less than a minute, there was a flash of golden light and it reached level 15.
Another minute passed and I reached level 16.
Lin Feng: "…"
Forging equipment was a bit tiring, and it was already dark, so Lin Feng simply lay down to sleep and think about it tomorrow.
…
At this time, except for Lin Feng, almost all the newcomers, especially the geniuses trained by the major forces, are leveling up in the dark without sleep.
Everyone's goal is to get onto the level leaderboard that opens 12 hours after a new player changes their job.
All the major forces are rushing to the top of the list, one for the rewards of being on the list, and the other for expanding their influence and attracting more powerful lone rangers to join.
For ordinary players, after failing in the talent awakening stage, rushing to the level list is their one of the few opportunities to turn things around.
Even if they are not talented, as long as they have perseverance and drive and are at the top of the ranking list, all major forces will welcome such people to join.
…
6am the next day.
In the barren desert dozens of miles away from Qingxi Town, Lin Xueer waved the staff in her hand.
"Holy light shines!"
As the light flickered, a giant scorpion monster fell to the ground and died.
With a flash of golden light, Lin Xueer reached level 22.
"Yes, I'm level 22 now. There's one minute left before the level ranking list opens."
The Blood Eagle leader beside him nodded with satisfaction: "Remember last year, the first place in the rookie level list was still Master Xiao, but he has only reached level 21. You are better than him."
Lin Xueer, however, was dismissive. Being stronger than Xiao Yifei was nothing. What she wanted to compete with were the amazing geniuses in history.
"Captain Blood Eagle, what is the highest level on the first day of the Rookie Ranking in history?"
The Blood Eagle leader's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "Lin Wushuang, level 28."
Lin Xueer was slightly surprised. "The president of the Dark Night Association, who was once the strongest, Lin Wushuang? I have been working day and night, and he is only level 22. How did he level up?"
"Miss, there is no need to compete with these monsters." The Blood Eagle leader said with a wry smile: "Those people are all crazy. Their levels are exchanged for their lives."
"However, the number one on this year's list is undoubtedly you, Miss."
"We have been keeping an eye on the people from the other families. The one from the highest-ranking Yun family is only level 21 now."
"They're chasing us so closely!" Lin Xue'er said solemnly, "It seems I'm not trying hard enough! I want to leave them far behind!"
A few minutes later.
[Ding! National announcement! Newcomer ranking list opens! ]
[Ding! National announcement! Newcomer ranking list opens! ]
[Ding! National announcement! Newcomer ranking list opens! ]
Three times in a row, the sound rang in the ears of everyone in Dragon Country.
Everyone, check the list first.
——
Newbie Level Ranking:
1. Feng Xiao, swordsman, no power, level 30.
2. Xuewu Qingsha, Warlock, Tianao League, level 22.
3. Yun Mengyao, Warlock, Sky Sanctuary, Level 21.
4. Bai Feiyu, swordsman, Predator Alliance, level 21.
5. Xuanyuan Xuetu, Assassin, Demon Flame Church, Level 21
6. Godlike Man, Archer, Dark Night Guild. Level 20.
7. Xiao Chen, archer, Tianao League, level 20.
8. Xiao Ming, swordsman, Tianao League, level 20.
9. Yunmengze, Elementalist, Sky Sanctuary, Level 20.
10. Bai Yong, Knight, Predator Alliance, Level 20.
…
…
When everyone opens the list, the first thing they do is to see who is number one.
However, Feng Xiao, a name that is both strange and familiar, appeared at the top of the list.
The entire Dragon Kingdom was shocked.
"Why is it this Feng Xiao again? He was the first in the Rookie of the Year award last time, right?"
"Who is this guy? He is 8 levels higher than the Snow Goddess!"
"Level 30! How is that possible? The highest record in history is only level 28. Is he more awesome than Lin Wushuang?"
"The most terrifying thing is that before the first transformation, the maximum level can only be 30. If there is no such limit, how many levels would this guy be?"
"What the hell is this? I've been leveling up without eating or sleeping, and I'm only level 18 now, but this bastard is already level 30. He must be cheating!"
"This is impossible! To upgrade from level 29 to level 30, 20,900 experience points are needed. Even if you want to kill level 30 monsters, you have to kill 1,000 of them. He is not a magic profession, so how can he have group attack skills in the early stage?"
"I thought it would be no problem for me to enter the list at level 19, but I didn't expect to be ranked outside the top 100. I am so upset!"
"This guy has actually left the geniuses of the five major guilds far behind. What force is behind him?"
…
For a while, the Internet was in an uproar.
Countless people envied and cursed in jealousy.
The smiles on Lin Xueer and Blood Eagle's faces suddenly stopped.
"Level 30!"
Lin Xueer pursed her red lips, her eyes filled with reluctance, "How could this guy reach level 30?"
She couldn't believe it, because she had the strongest talent in history and the full support of the strongest guild, but she was only level 22 now.
She looked at Blood Eagle, "Could it be that Feng Xiao is also a crazy person who doesn't care about his life? But even if he kills high-level monsters, his efficiency will not be as good as killing low-level monsters, right?"
"Besides, he's just a swordsman!"
"Captain Blood Eagle, I don't understand!"
