Virtual Ascension: Awakening the Supreme Talent

Previously, Zhang Yi was contemplating that in order to complete the Undead Set, he would have to give up the 3-star Glowing Staff. This 3-star Undead Staff perfectly filled that gap for him.

The only regret left was the Death's Boots.

But it didn't matter, as the boots could be swapped back anytime. Zhang Yi felt that wearing the full dark-themed Undead Set looked more aesthetically pleasing, otherwise, it would seem mismatched, and the set bonuses would be more complete.

Next, he continued to use Level 2 Enhancement Stones to enhance the remaining pieces of the Undead Set.

With countless notification sounds echoing continuously in his ears, 150 Level 2 Enhancement Stones were used, and along with the 3-star Undead Staff, a perfect set of Level 30, 2-star, 25-level Mage Undead Set was presented before Zhang Yi.

[Undead Staff] (25): 420 Attack, 49 Intelligence, 49 Agility (all attributes include enhancement bonuses). Talent: Splash Attack (Passive, 1% chance to deal 20% attack damage to all enemies within attack range without triggering aggro)

[Undead Ring] (25): 280 Attack, 35 Intelligence, 35 Intelligence. Talent: Top-tier Serious Injury (Passive, 120 damage)

[Undead Robe] (25): HP 630, 35 Stamina, 35 Endurance. Talent: Top-tier Damage Reduction (Passive, 100 damage reduction)

[Undead Hat] (25): HP 595, 35 Stamina, 35 Stamina. Talent: Life Conversion (Passive, converts 12% of the wearer's maximum attack power into HP)

[Undead Pants] (25): Defense 192, 35 Endurance, 35 Agility. Talent: Slow on Hit (Passive, reduces attacker's attack speed and movement speed by 5% for 3 seconds when hit, stackable up to 2 layers)

[Undead Boots] (25): Defense 175, Agility 35, Endurance 35. Talent: Acceleration (Passive, increases movement speed by 4% for 3 seconds when taking damage, stackable up to 3 layers)

[Undead Necklace] (25): Energy 350, 35 Agility, 35 Agility. Talent: Advanced Energy Attack (Passive, deals 10% of maximum energy value as damage with each attack)

Zhang Yi immediately equipped this dark-themed Undead Set and opened the status bar to take a look—

Description: A Beastmaster about to undergo a second transition, gradually becoming stronger...

Attack power broke through four digits!

These attributes, invincible!

Meanwhile, two system notifications sounded in his ear—

"Ding~ Congratulations on activating the [Undead Set] (2-star, Mage) seven-piece set, gaining set attribute: Casting Speed +55%! (2-star Mage full set 50%, 3-star weapon provides an additional 5% bonus)"

"Ding~ Congratulations on completing This Week's Survival Quest [Equipment Master] (Normal). Since your Revival Chance has reached the maximum of 5 times, you have received an equivalent reward of 1 Grand Wheel of Fortune draw! Your Survival Quest has been upgraded to Elite level, you can check the task details in the task interface!"

Thus, Zhang Yi opened the Grand Wheel of Fortune and used the Level 1 draw chance from completing the normal Survival Quest to draw.

A pleasant system notification sounded in his ear—

"Ding~ Congratulations on receiving 50 Gold Coins! Wheel EXP 1, 1 more EXP needed to level up the Grand Wheel of Fortune to Level 2!"

This time, luck wasn't as good, not landing on a blue Skill Book like last time, but 50 Gold Coins were still nice.

Once another Survival Quest is completed and another draw is made, the wheel rewards will greatly increase.

Then, Zhang Yi looked at the upgraded Elite level Survival Quest.

Elite Hunt: Kill at least three elite monsters not lower than your level within this week.

This task wasn't difficult, with some bounty in the region, it would be easy to find a few elite monsters.

So, Zhang Yi began to eat peacefully.

After eating, he opened the Regional Chat Channel and saw it filled with the helpless sighs of Zone 886 players...

[Awesome My Bro]: "That Proud of the Crowd in their zone is too strong, relying on a legendary talent, he's simply invincible. Anyone in our zone who encounters him is dead, we can't beat him at all!"

[Momo]: "The dungeon will end in just over 5 hours, and now the energy gap between our zone and theirs is so large, it seems there's no way to salvage it, we've definitely lost this Energy Struggle."

[King's Glory]: "I've been in the City of Energy for the past two days and not only haven't leveled up, but I've also dropped two levels without saying a word, and I'm still fighting. Can't you guys have some ambition?"

As they spoke, a dungeon announcement sounded—

"Ding~ Zone 885 player [Proud of the Crowd] killed Zone 886 [King's Glory], Energy Points 356!"

[King's Glory]: "Damn it! Got killed again... How is the Proud of the Crowd family so awesome, each one seems like they've taken stimulants! I'm scared, I'm scared, not fighting anymore, I'm going to sleep..."

Closing the chat interface, Zhang Yi and Han Yaru went back to the inn to get a room and sleep.

In the City of Energy, having slaughtered to their heart's content, the 27-level Archer Proud of the Crowd, who topped the energy rankings of the two major regions with 180,000 energy points, shot another arrow to kill a Zone 886 Warrior player trying to escape on the street.

Dungeon announcement: "Ding~ Zone 885 player [Proud of the Crowd] reached a 782 kill streak! Unstoppable!"

"Being invincible is so, so lonely~~"

The extremely inflated Proud of the Crowd began to sing in the cross-region channel, and despite being tone-deaf, a bunch of girls from Zone 885 were still praising him.

Meanwhile, the players from Zone 886 no longer had the energy to resist Zone 885. No matter how much they taunted and provoked in the cross-region channel, no one, except for King's Glory, bothered to refute them.

The chat channel gradually quieted down, with no one speaking, even King's Glory said he was tired.

Until, around six in the evening, a dungeon announcement quietly arrived—

"Ding~ Please note: Zone 886's top-ranked player [Yinuo Qingcheng] has entered the dungeon!"
