5Black Market Challenge

The luxury accessory box slowly opens, blooming with colorful brilliance, shining brightly.

Fortunately, Shifeng is located in a dark alley, and no player would come here to stroll. Otherwise, it would surely arouse the greed of many players, who would take down Shifeng and steal the treasure.

The radiance dissipated, and inside the luxurious jewelry box lay a purple gold ring, with a circle of text engraved on the outer edge of the ring, resembling ancient elf script, containing infinite magic, and a simple silver necklace.

"Fortunately, it is indeed the Ring of Gravity." After seeing the appearance of the ring, Shi Feng breathed a sigh of relief and carefully took out the ring to observe.

Ring of Gravity: Dark Iron level, equipment level 0, strength+2, agility+1, endurance+1, equipped with the skill 'Gravity Liberation', which can greatly reduce the wearer's gravitational force and obtain a feather light body, lasting for 30 seconds, with a cooldown of 5 minutes.

"Great, it's not bronze grade," Shi Feng said with joy after reading the introduction. The situation was better than he had imagined.

The equipment in the divine realm is divided into garbage, ordinary, bronze, black iron, secret silver, refined gold, dark gold, and epic.

At the beginning, the equipment provided by the system to players was all junk, and no one wanted to sell it for money. At this stage, no player has ordinary equipment. Although ordinary equipment can be purchased in large cities, the price is very expensive. As for bronze level equipment, it is very rare, and it also comes with attributes. Dark iron level equipment is even more precious, and only bosses can drop it.

The Gravitational Ring given by that player in the previous life was bronze level, only adding 1 point of strength, and the skill 'Gravitational Liberation' only lasted for 15 seconds. However, completing the task at level 0 would give the Dark Iron level Gravitational Ring, which is really unexpected.

As for the necklace, it is a special gray item that NPC merchants love and will purchase it at a high price.

Wear the Ring of Gravity and add agility to all 4 free attributes obtained from the upgrade.

Shi Feng's agility reached a height of 12 points, his attack speed increased to 5 points, and his movement speed increased to 6 points, which is similar to a pure agile assassin of the same level.

"By reaching level 3, agility can reach 20 points, which can activate the hidden basic skills of agility." Shi Feng looked at the attribute panel with some anticipation in his heart.

Shi Feng moved his body for a while, feeling much more agile than before. If he were to face the town mayor Cross now, he would not be as embarrassed as before. If he could reach 20 points of agility and activate basic skills skillfully and quickly, his physical fitness would be great at that time, almost comparable to the martial arts masters in martial arts novels.

Subsequently, 15 points of free mastery were added to single handed sword mastery, leaving 5 points as a backup. In one fell swoop, single handed sword mastery reached 20 points, advancing from apprentice level to junior swordsman. The damage caused by single handed sword increased by 10%, and there were still 30 points left to master compared to advanced intermediate swordsman.

As a swordsman, if you want to become a skilled swordsman, flat chopping is just a basic skill, and skills are essential. The more skills you learn, the more flexible your swordsman's combat can become and unleash stronger output.

As a skilled swordsman and a reborn individual, Shi Feng has the special item of the Ring of Gravity. If he wants to quickly upgrade, the next step is to learn a lot of swordsman skills, so that he can unleash the true instincts of swordsmen. Otherwise, it will all be a flat cut. How can he maximize his monster killing efficiency.

"I remember there was a black market challenge in the trade zone of Hongye Town, and it seemed that players who passed the challenge for the first time could obtain a swordsman's skill book." Shi Feng thought for a moment, and the vast majority of skill books were used to deal with level 3 to 5 wild monsters, with a very low chance of dropping them. At present, there are no players who can deal with which small monsters. Obtaining other swordsman skill books is time-consuming, and he doesn't have time to do so. The only way to quickly obtain skill books in Hongye Town is through the black market challenge.

Hongye Town Trade Zone.

On both sides of the street are various shops, including pharmacy shops, forging shops, bars, and so on. It is very bustling, like a small market. However, the Divine Realm has just opened up, and players are all leveling up, so there is no time to experience the fun of the Divine Realm. Therefore, the trade zone is not the busiest time yet, and only a small number of production players are learning auxiliary professions here, such as enchantment, forging, medicine, chef, engineering, alchemy, and so on.

"Purchase herbs at high prices, some directly contact."

"Buy minerals, don't let black people come."

"Sincerely purchase advanced equipment at a negotiable price, and can be purchased with a credit point."

Many studios and guild logistics personnel set up small stalls on the streets of the trade zone to purchase supplies and equipment.

Shifeng did not stop, but quickly walked towards a two-story building guarded by senior goblins, with the words "Black Market" written on it. It was the dark zone of Hongye Town, an entertainment venue built by greedy goblins.

Entering the black market, there is a goblin auction house. Walking down the stairs of the cellar, there are two open spaces: a fighting arena and a challenge competition.

At this point, several players are already standing on the challenge, accepting the challenge from the goblins.

"Come on, we must succeed this time."

"Come on, knock over those goblins."

A few players shook their bodies and shouted for an assassin player on the field, their eyes flashing red, like crazy gamblers.

Challenge matches can be considered as competitions that test players' skills. In areas 30 yards long and 10 yards wide, all players will have 10 points in all attributes upon entering the arena. Skills cannot be used, equipment is invalid, and players can only dodge or resist shooting from goblin guns. In the end, passing the finish line is considered a victory.

The goblins offer three levels of challenges, namely copper, silver, and gold. Completing one challenge will refresh every three days, and participating requires paying 5 copper coins for the copper prize, 5 silver coins for the silver prize, and 5 gold coins for the gold prize. The higher the challenge, the better the reward, and sometimes even dark gold level equipment may appear.

If it's the first time a player in Hongye Town has passed the challenge, even if it's a bronze medal, it's similar to a silver medal.

Shi Feng remembers that in his previous life, it was a swordsman named Kuangfeng who passed the bronze medal challenge for the first time in Hongye Town and obtained a rare skill book for swordsmen.

After a while, the assassin on the field was hit and lay 20 yards away, 10 yards from the finish line.

"Damn it, almost. Do you still have money? I will definitely pass next time," the male assassin said repeatedly after being resurrected off the field.

A male pastor shook his head and said, "Thorny boss, we've given you all the money for the five of us. We really don't have any money left."

Upon hearing the words "heart piercing", Shi Feng beside him was surprised and his gaze shifted to the assassin.

Wearing a black nighttime outfit, not tall, very thin and small, like a monkey. It's hard for Shi Feng to imagine that the tenth most piercing assassin on the Star and Moon Kingdom Assassin Ranking is the "monkey" in front of him?

The assassin named Thornheart shifted his gaze to Shi Feng, looked around, and showed a look that seemed to have found prey. He approached Shi Feng with a smile and said, "Hello friend, my name is Thornheart. I am the captain of the Assassin Alliance. Can I borrow 5 copper coins from me and repay you 20 copper coins tomorrow?"

Thornheart was very unhappy with this failure, only 10 yards away from the finish line. He had found some patterns and given another chance, he was sure to pass. So he wanted to use the guild name to intimidate Shi Feng and ask him to lend him 5 copper coins.

You should know the name of Assassin's Alliance, which is a well-known guild in the virtual gaming world. Any veteran in the gaming world knows this name and can become the captain of the Assassin profession. It is definitely a great deity, and many players admire it. Ordinary players will definitely beg to hold onto their thighs and donate 5 copper coins. As for the matter of repaying the money, it is definitely not necessary.

"Is it 5 copper?" Shi Feng thought for a moment and replied, "I can borrow 5 copper and return 50 copper tomorrow."

Thornheart was suddenly surprised, which was different from what he had thought. He was the captain of the Assassins League, and the famous Thornheart was not polite. Is Shifeng a rookie in the game.

Shi Feng looked at the thorn in his heart and remained silent, then asked, "Do you still borrow it?"

"Borrow." It made me want to cry. Other players saw him as a great god, but Shi Feng didn't react. However, thinking of the generous reward, 50 copper coins were also dried.

"This is 5 copper. Let's add some friends and don't forget to return me 50 copper tomorrow." Shi Feng traded the 60 copper sold on the necklace to Thornheart for 5 copper and reminded Thornheart to return 50 copper.

After receiving 5 copper coins, Thornheart tearfully said, "Okay, I won't forget."

Shi Feng didn't know what Thorn was thinking, and after the transaction, he walked towards the Green Skin Goblin Administrator.

"Sir, time is money. What's up to you?" said the goblin manager arrogantly.

"I want to participate in the Bronze Medal Challenge," said Shi Feng, handing over 5 bronze medals.

The goblin managed to shake the copper coins, nodded in satisfaction, opened the wooden door of the challenge, and let Shi Feng in.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now there is a new challenger who wants a new challenge. Please welcome this brave swordsman," the goblin announced loudly.

"Brother Thorny, the kid who borrowed money has also participated in the challenge," the male pastor reminded.

"That kid is just a rookie. I thought the challenge was so easy. Although it's only 30 yards away, after running 15 yards, the goblin's attack mode will change and the attack frequency will increase significantly. Even I find it difficult to handle, let alone him," said the still calm and piercing smile

"That's for sure. Brother Thorny is so skilled that he can only walk up to 20 yards. I estimate that kid can only walk up to 5 yards at most," the male pastor nodded and smiled.

In the challenge field, the three goblins at the finish line were ready and aimed their firearms at the starting line of Shifeng.

The countdown on the challenge field began to flash.
