Chapter 221 Unrivaled (Completed a difficult 12,000-word update, requesting recommendations!)
Finally, he had obtained the Madman Medal. Nie Yan couldn't help but feel a bit excited. The Thief's Madman Medal came with two very good skills.
Madman Medal (Special item, Thief): Beginner level. Must kill a thousand players 2 levels higher to upgrade to intermediate.
Item Description: Those who possess the Madman Medal can upgrade its level by killing people. At the same time, they will be cursed, and their defense will be reduced.
Item Attributes: Attack +20%, Defense -20%, Agility +20, Ignore Level +3, Armor Penetration Damage. Comes with skills: Beginner Frenzy, enter a frenzy state when health is below 50%, attack and movement speed increased by 30%, gain an additional 10 attack for each player killed. Skill cooldown is thirty seconds. Beginner Mental Immunity, protects against mental magic attacks for 3 seconds after casting. Skill cooldown is thirty seconds.
Restrictions: Limited to personal use, bound upon pickup, cannot be traded, cannot be dropped, can be destroyed.
The Thief's Madman Medal is slightly different from the magic class's. The preceding attributes are also good, and the last two skills are awesome. Beginner Frenzy provides an additional bonus when health is below 50%. Most importantly, Mental Immunity. For a Thief who frequently PKs, they understand that the most deadly skills are control spells. In his past life, research was done on the official website, and it showed what killed Thieves most often in PKs. Warriors' hamstringing accounted for 52%, Mages' control spells accounted for 35%, and Mages' high burst damage accounted for 9%...
Warriors' hamstringing was undoubtedly ranked first. Warriors restrain Thieves, that is beyond doubt. Losing miserably in PKs with Mages, the vast majority of Thieves die from control spells. Mages' control spells are a far greater threat to Thieves than their terrifying magic damage.
In team battles or multi-person PKs, the class Thieves like to deal with the most is the Priest class. Priests' illumination spells and marks are too troublesome. Priests wear cloth armor, making them the easiest to deal with. Therefore, most Thieves will target Priests first and take them down. The control magic Priests are most proficient in is mental magic. Having a skill like Mental Immunity is naturally very beneficial when dealing with Priests and Shadow Priests.
Another reason why Nie Yan wanted to come here to farm the Madman Medal was because of Black Heaven and Black Hell. One of them is a Holy Priest, and the other is likely a Shadow Priest. They might have mental control magic. With the Madman Medal's Mental Immunity and the Ten Holy Light Knight Medal's Spell Immunity, Nie Yan didn't believe these two could do anything to him.
Nie Yan had already prepared himself for contact with Black Heaven and Black Hell. Black Heaven was one of the Seven Great Holy Priests in his previous life. He was temporarily staying in the Dark Ranger Guild. As the Dark Ranger Guild declined, he would definitely transfer guilds. Nie Yan would not give up on recruiting these two. If he sent people to block them and forcibly snatch the Chapter of Justice, it would be the same as pushing them to other guilds. Nie Yan had sent the guild's brothers to search for their traces, but they were extremely vigilant and would change their leveling spots every once in a while. The brothers below couldn't find them at all.
Since he couldn't find them, then Nie Yan could only wait for them to come to him. Nie Yan had prepared himself to deal with Black Heaven and Black Hell. The appearance of this Madman Medal was clearly very timely.
Both gems were lucky gems. He looked at the skill book. It was a skill book called Cloud of Poison Mist, an arcane magic area-of-effect skill. All units within the poison mist would continuously lose health, 10 points per second, with a range of 30x30 yards. The effect was very strong.
This skill book would definitely be given to a brother in the guild who had signed an agreement.
"Besides the Thief's Madman Medal, there's also a skill book," Nie Yan said, sharing the equipment's attributes.
Sun glanced at the Madman Medal, and his eyes lit up: "If my kill count exceeds a hundred, can I also get a Madman Medal?"
Nie Yan quickly stopped him: "You'd spend so much time, get your kill count up to a hundred, then come here to farm the Madman Medal, and there's no guarantee it'll drop. Plus, you'd have to wash off your red name. How much time would that waste? It's better to level up more and collect better equipment."
"Oh, then never mind," Sun said disappointedly after hearing Nie Yan's words.
"There are already quite a few Thieves in the guild who have level 30 gold sets. They can wear them when they reach level 30, so hurry up and level up," Nie Yan said. Sun was still a bit childish, but his talent was absolutely unmatched. He still needed his careful guidance.
Sun watched Nie Yan's process of killing the Scale Frog Leader and gained a deep understanding. He secretly made Nie Yan his goal, striving towards that direction, vowing to become a god-level Thief like Nie Yan!
"Alright, everyone continue leveling up. The game is closing soon," Nie Yan said. He could level for about half an hour more.
Nie Yan and the others continued to level up and kill Scale Frogs.
At the Carol City teleportation point, two figures appeared in the teleportation array and walked out.
They were wearing black cloaks, concealing their appearances. They were the holders of the Chapter of Justice, Black Heaven and Black Hell.
Black Hell looked at the system prompt and said, "The last location ended just now. They're south of Carol City, most likely washing off their red names there, so they shouldn't be far."
Black Heaven said nervously, "Brother, can we beat that guy?" He thought of the video of Nie Yan hunting Hei Zhuo, which left a very deep impression on him. Originally, he had unwavering faith in Black Hell's skills. In all the people he had met, no one was stronger than his brother. But after watching the video on the official website, he felt a little shaken. Mad Thief Nie Yan seemed very fierce. If any players heard that someone was planning to make trouble for Nie Yan at this time, they would definitely be called overconfident.
Not many players may have heard of who Black Hell was, but if one spoke of Du Bu Tian Xia (Unrivaled), many people would definitely know. In previous virtual games, he was a famous figure. The Dark Ranger Guild's peak period was under his leadership. He had been ranked first on the professional player rankings for three years. Later, the Dark Ranger Studio disbanded, Du Bu Tian Xia disappeared, and the Dark Ranger Guild declined from then on. Those world-class experts of the Dark Ranger Guild left, scattered, and the place was deserted. Only a few old members were still stubbornly supporting the Dark Ranger Guild. None of them knew that Black Hell was actually Du Bu Tian Xia. However, Black Hell's state of mind at this time was completely different from the previous Du Bu Tian Xia, and he had abandoned his usual Warrior class and chose Shadow Priest.
However, the Dark Ranger Guild's heyday and prosperity were still remembered. Many experts in the major guilds came from the Dark Ranger Guild. Many of them would still often mention the Dark Ranger Guild of the past, sighing endlessly. When chatting with people, they would occasionally say, "I came from the Dark Ranger Guild." As for where the leader Du Bu Tian Xia went, no one knew, and they couldn't help but feel regret.
Black Hell's eyes flashed with a divine light, and he said, "I want to try and see how strong that guy really is." He had no pursuit of power and money now. He just wanted to enjoy the fun of the game with a unique state of mind. In his opinion, Mad Thief Nie Yan was an interesting opponent, and that was all.
Black Heaven knew that Black Hell's competitive spirit had been aroused again. His brother's personality had always been like this.
Du Bu Tian Xia had changed his name, but in some ways, he was still Du Bu Tian Xia. One could imagine how arrogant and invincible he was when he first chose the name Du Bu Tian Xia.
Black Hell, of course, understood what kind of opponent he was going to face. He was not going to his death. His goal was to defeat Nie Yan and seize the Chapter of Order from Nie Yan's hands.
"Let's go to the Starry Sky Pharmacy and buy some potions," Black Hell said. Before contacting Nie Yan, he wanted to make full preparations first. Good potions were essential, and there were only a handful of places to buy potions, and the best was none other than the Starry Sky Pharmacy.
"When are we going to find him?" Black Heaven asked. Since Black Hell had decided, he would not say anything else.
Black Hell thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow morning, let's go meet that guy together." Mad Thief Nie Yan, was he worthy of his name?
The two spoke and walked into the Starry Sky Pharmacy together.
Nie Yan and the others leveled up for a while, checked the time, and it was almost time to log off.
"Nie Yan, I'm logging off," Yao Yao said goodbye to Nie Yan, waving her hand.
"See you tomorrow."
"Guild Leader Nie Yan, we're logging off."
"Big Brother Nie Yan, I'm logging off."
...
Listening to these simple and ordinary greetings, Nie Yan was filled with emotion. In his previous life, most of the time, he was alone, grinding monsters for an entire day, returning to the city to put the equipment up for auction, occasionally exchanging it for some credits, and then silently logging off. Only very occasionally would a few people greet Nie Yan, such as Yao Yao, Tang Yao, and some unfamiliar teammates who leveled up together.
This life was a bit different. He preferred the feeling now.
Nie Yan came out of the game. Several relatives who were close to his parents were helping them move things downstairs, saying that they were preparing to transport them to the villa in the provincial capital. They would invite the relatives out for dinner in the evening, and tomorrow they would be living in the villa in the provincial capital.
"Xiao Yan, we're moving to the provincial capital. Go and say goodbye to your classmates," Nie's mother said, affectionately stroking Nie Yan's head.
Nie Yan didn't have many friends in high school. Although he got along with many people, they weren't particularly close, so he said, "They probably have things to do. I can just give them a call."
"That's fine too," Nie's mother nodded.
Finally, he was going to the provincial capital. Nie Yan was even more eager to reunite with Xie Yao.
Brothers and sisters, please give me some recommendations... Also, it's the end of the month, so I'm asking for a monthly ticket as usual...
