Chapter 225 - Level 60 Close Combat

A moment later, the three of them were done with the Support.

In total, Ling Yi obtained 602 points of agility, a B-grade support Skill [High Speed Leap], and an A-grade support Skill [Intuition].

The former could increase his speed, while the latter could increase his sense of danger, which was somewhat useful.

He gave the two women a physique of 2,133 points and the S-grade support Skill [Heroic Soul Borrowing].

Among the players, attributes were divided into two categories.

The attributes brought by free attribute points, treasures, passive effects, divine weapons, and true souls were considered normal attributes, and they were the source of attributes that could be provided to others.

The attributes brought by active effects, temporary statuses, items, and talismans were considered temporary attributes, and could not be used on others.

For example, the 1,870 points of mana that he had copied using [attribute duplication] were temporary attributes — otherwise, he would have given the mana attribute to them.

“It’s a pity that the attribute increase after Ling ‘Er possessed me was also considered a temporary attribute. ” Lin Shurou sighed with great pity.

Ling Yi had helped both of them increase their vitality by more than 2,000 points each, but the two of them had only managed to increase his agility by 700 points after combining their strength. This made both of them feel slightly guilty.

Not long after the two of them left, he finally received news from Yun Zixiao.

[Nightingale_Chirping: Done! I used the Red Holy Stone and the EXP Pearl to level up 3 times, so I’m level 47 now!]

[01: OK.]

After closing the chat window, Ling Yi immediately took out the 36,000 EXP needed to level up from the EXP Pool.

The next moment…

[Congratulations! You have accumulated enough experience. You have been automatically raised to level 60!]

[You have received 5 free attribute points!]

[Congratulations on reaching level 60! You can now participate in the “Seven Days Challenge”!]

All 5 of his free attribute points had been added to agility, and when he looked at his fifth dimension again, his body had completely changed—

[strength: 1,878, mana: 2,230, agility: 1,042, endurance: 263, physique: 2,133]

Other than the increase in attributes from Support and the free attribute points just now, there was nothing else.

There was also a 10-point increase in all attributes from the potential crystal.

After the super enhancement, Shenxia’s original strength stone monument had also provided him with 30 points of strength.

“My attributes now are more comprehensive…”

He closed his personal panel and looked at the “Seven-Day Challenge” for a moment. In the end, he still shook his head.

‘It’s an excellent way for other players to gain EXP, but for me, I just need to kill monsters to earn EXP. There’s no need to participate.’

…

Ling Yi entered the arena early in the morning.

As usual, he would first challenge the player ranked 1001.

[01 VS Wang Lan]

The moment they entered, Ling Yi saw his opponent in the distance dancing with joy.

“Boss 01, Boss 01, I’m your fan!”

“In order to meet you, I’ve been stuck at this ranking for a long time!”

The public knew 01’s habit of playing in the arena. He would first play 1001, then 101, and then first place.

As a fan, Wang Lan was naturally aware of this. In order to be able to see him up close, she had deliberately stuck here to wait for him. Otherwise, with his strength, he would be able to get a higher ranking.

When the countdown ended and the two of them could move, Wang Lan immediately ran to Ling Yi excitedly and asked, “Big Brother, what do you think of the current situation? Do you think Black Sky will bring about the end of the world?”

“Do you think tonight’s joint operation can break the Nest God’s rainbow veil?”

Many people around the world were very concerned about the opinion of this man who had always created miracles over and over again.

Wang Lan was just one of them.

“I have no comment.” Ling Yi frowned and shook his head.

He was now a real public figure around the world. He had to be careful with his words and actions on this issue.

He wasn’t sure what the exact situation was, so it was best to remain silent.

After saying that, he raised his hand and condensed a ball of wind.

Seeing this, Wang Lan immediately raised her hands, “I don’t want to fight with my idol. I surrender.”

The second match was also between his fan, and the opponent surrendered in three seconds.

Soon, it was time for the last match, which was to challenge the player who was ranked first.

[01 VS Lanfu]

Opposite him was a foreign uncle in his forties. He had white skin, green eyes, and a beard. He was tall and strong.

The moment he entered, he shouted, “01! I want to fight you one-on-one!”

Ling Yi knew what he meant. He was telling Ling Yi not to summon the Ice Queen.

But even if Lanfu didn’t say anything, he didn’t plan on summoning her this time.

Yunji had told him about his opponent’s combat power before. Now that his strength and agility attributes had broken through four digits, his melee combat strength had made a qualitative leap!

However, he wasn’t sure how much stronger he was compared to the others in terms of close combat. The level 69 player in front of him might be a good guinea pig.

If he remembered correctlt, this Lanfu was a close-combat expert from the Arctic state, nicknamed “Furious Bear Lanfu”.

“Sure.” He nodded and agreed readily.

At the same time, he activated his [Eye of Truth] to check the other party’s panel.

[Name: Lanfu (LV69)]

…

[Attributes: strength 402, mana 3, agility 320, endurance 55, physique 152]

[…]

‘What a trashy panel.’

Ling Yi sighed in his heart when he saw his attributes.

‘It seems like it would be an unfair test after all…’

While he was still thinking, the man transformed into a three-meter-tall brown bear and shouted, “I know that you have divine artifacts that can increase your strength and physique, so I’ll go all out from the start!”

The three-meter-tall brown bear sprinted towards Ling Yi at high speed on all fours!

Ling Yi could clearly see his opponent’s movements. He didn’t even need to teleport. He just jumped to the side and dodged his opponent’s first attack.

In the gap between the giant bear’s body, Ling Yi unhurriedly pushed out a palm towards it.

In an instant, a violent hurricane formed out of thin air around him and spewed forward, pushing Lanfu’s bear form more than a thousand meters away, smashing into the arena’s barrier.

Ling Yi stared boringly at his opponent.

“How weak.”

Then the giant bear in the distance stood up as if nothing had happened. It roared to the sky and pounded its chest hard.

Immediately after, a red light appeared on the surface of its body. Through the [Eye of Truth], Ling Yi knew that it had entered his explosive mode.

And to top it all off, he had also used a berserk Skill!

Quickly, Lanfu used [Phantom Run] and rushed towards him. He ran in circles, trapping Ling Yi in the center, leaving behind a phantom.

[Phantom Run (7 Stars)]: Temporarily increases movement speed by 30% and can leave a maximum of 10 phantoms in the following running. Each phantom can only exist for 5 seconds. During the existence of the phantom, the user can return to the location of one of the phantoms at any time. This Skill can be used five times per hour, each time lasting for a maximum of 20 seconds.

“Oh? But…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Lanfu, who had turned behind him, seized the opportunity to pounce on him. The latter paused, raised the corner of his mouth, and clenched his fist.

Bang!

He clenched his fist and hit the bear’s belly hard, his fist sinking deep into it.

In the next second, the big brown bear’s huge body flew out like a cannonball, once again being pushed back to the arena barrier more than a thousand meters away.

When it fell to the ground and got up, Ling Yi checked its vitality again.

89.21%.

The first attack is a wind palm. It can hurt the opponent from a distance. The power depends on mana.

“The second time, use your fist and hit the body directly. The power depends on the strength.”

Ling Yi touched his chin and pondered. ‘Then, if my wind fist hits my opponent directly, will I be able to stack the power of my wind fist?’ he asked.

In the past, he had not thought about this problem since his strength was not high.

Now that his strength and mana had both risen to this level, it was inevitable that he would consider a more powerful instant-cast attack.

“Let’s see.”

Seeing the big brown bear running towards him again, Ling Yi didn’t stand still. Instead, he took a step forward and shot out like a bullet, instantly appearing in front of the big brown bear!

When the other party had barely reacted and was about to defend, he swung his right fist with all his strength, wrapped in a huge wind!

BANG—!

In an instant, his fist sank deep into his opponent’s stomach again, and circles of shock waves spread out from his fist.

The three-meter-long bear bent into a ‘C’ shape and shot out like a cannonball. With a loud bang, it heavily smashed into the transparent barrier of the arena!

This was the third time he had crashed into the protective shield in half a minute.

He looked again with the [Eye of Truth].

“Okay, okay.”

Ling Yi smiled faintly. ‘Not only has the damage been stacked, but the power has also slightly increased.’

This way, he would have wind for long-range combat, Elemental Spirit Blade for melee combat, and wind fist for unarmed combat.

His had successfully made a very comprehensive battle strategy!
