Although the Zhennan King's Excellent Shining Treasure Chest only yielded one piece of equipment, it was a growth-level item, and because it included eight hundred armored cavalry, it became a legion-style item.

However, it's not a pure legion-based strategy; it's more geared towards generals, such as Murong Ying.

Kumashigeoka was not suitable to be a commander.

Wearing this gear, you're definitely going to charge into battle.

"I wonder if Qian Yuan wants the Hehuan Quilt and the Bewitching Flower." Chu Danqing couldn't help but think of the last time Yang Qian Yuan took away the Thousand-Faced Human-Faced Duster and the Body-Shifting Spell.

These two items are more control-oriented, and the two items that came out of the Excellent-grade treasure chest of the Old Monster Yinlong are similar.

Of course, he was just thinking about it; the specifics would depend on Yang Qianyuan himself.

If he wants it, he'll give it to him; if not, Chu Danqing will sell it.

As for the Thousand-Army-Piercing Bright Light Armor, that can only be given to Xiong Zhigang.

Yang Qianyuan is alright; he just needs to improve himself.

The equipment shortage in Kumashibaka is indeed significant.

Even if you don't give it to the soldiers, but only to Xiong Zhigang and his scribes and generals, each of them should have at least two or three pieces of excellent-grade legion-style equipment.

Because most of the enemies he encounters are engaged in combat, the equipment produced is more suitable for military generals.

The scholar Ren Ruzhi is still completely unequipped, and the effects of his equipment rely entirely on Xiong Zhigang's talent and skills.

"Once I master the skills to the maximum level, I should be able to squeeze out some resources."

"Or I can wait until I'm in my profession and then farm some points in the welfare system." Chu Danqing also wanted to provide some configuration options, but he still wanted to prioritize his own needs.

Unlike equipment that can only be enjoyed by one person, its benefits can be enjoyed by everyone.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, Chu Danqing's benefits are naturally higher.

Therefore, Kumashige's equipment was up to par, but the equipment of his civil and military officials and soldiers depended on the situation.

Chu Danqing isn't a lord-type or legion-type player, so how much help he can provide depends entirely on how much he has left.

Actually, there is a way. The simplest way is to kill those four members of the opposing faction.

Then he can take 20 amusement park points back with him.

After all, under normal circumstances, a game will only yield around 10 Paradise Points. After unlocking SS level at Tier 2, it might be a bit higher, but at most 15.

The 340,000 Paradise Points earned from the previous rank promotion assessment were earned by risking one's life.

If it weren't for the other apostle of mathematics, physics, and chemistry developing a mobile fortress, Chu Danqing would definitely have failed the assessment.

The goddess of cats back then was still a goddess, not the cats we know today.

We continued on our journey and arrived at Tianfu before dark.

As before, the road signs cleared the way, and the entry into the city proceeded smoothly.

Upon entering, the professional task is completed smoothly.

[Chain Quest #4: Obtain the Ring of Heaven before returning]

[Trial Difficulty: SS Rank (Hell)]

[Trial Reward: Unlocks the next stage of the chain quest]

[Trial Failed: This Job Awakening Quest is Aborted]

To be honest, Chu Danqing didn't feel any difficulty at all in this career awakening mission.

The SS-rank is practically fake. The biggest pitfall is that the token will devour your luck; otherwise, it's not difficult at all.

He estimated that he avoided the pitfall because he had an informational advantage, which led to his normal luck.

Otherwise, if he hadn't been able to dodge it, he would probably be experiencing the true power of an SS-level difficulty right now.

It can only be said that this identity is useless in terms of direct assistance, but it is almost godlike in terms of indirect assistance.

Having seen this part, I knew that the help from my identity would end there.

If you want the Ring of Heaven, you'll have to steal it.

Fortunately, he still has a significant advantage.

The four members of the opposing camp will likely find it difficult to escape in the short term.

So next, he needs to find a good hiding place.

For example, sneaking into the palace.

The imperial court has many secret agents, and they are very capable.

The Prince of Zhennan was able to discover his identity thanks to imperial spies.

So he's going to play a trick of hiding the truth from the light.

Secondly, they shifted the blame eastward.

After all, the participants can sense each other, and it seems that the descent point of the Heavenly Ring is in Tianfu.

Killing him won't be that easy.

Chu Danqing was able to infiltrate because he kept a low profile.

By the time the secret agents found him, he had already infiltrated the palace.

The four members of the opposing camp were helpless, as the imperial spies were sure to be keeping a close watch on them.

It seems they learned of the other party's intentions before even entering Tianfu, and thus had to launch an ambush.

If such a dangerous person were to wreak havoc right under the emperor's nose, what face would the Xi Huan dynasty have left?
Being high-profile has its advantages, and being low-profile has its advantages as well.

It's like everyone in the world knows that four people from the opposing camp have the Heavenly Ring token in their hands, but how many people would dare to steal it?

On the contrary, Chu Danqing would definitely be tempted to act if his greed were discovered.

In terms of deterrence, Chu Danqing is no match for the four of them.

"But we still need to be careful." Chu Danqing knew that Paradise had mentioned there were six factions before they came.

The extra faction is definitely the indigenous faction.

This means that there may be some ancient monsters lurking among the indigenous people.

It's a good opportunity to have four people from the opposing camp help scout out the mines.

It doesn't matter if the investigation fails; Chu Danqing can't calculate too much anyway.

Therefore, he planned to find a suitable time to summon Yang Qianyuan to help with the divination of the heavenly secrets.

Now is not the right time; he needs to find a safe house first.

Upon entering Chengdu, he discovered something: this place truly lived up to its reputation as the capital city.

There are a lot of spies.

Whether they were peddlers, merchants, or scholars, many of them also worked as secret agents for the imperial court.

Chu Danqing was skilled and insightful, so he easily discerned the difference.

However, he estimated that these were just human-level secret agents, or at most earth-level agents.

Given his circumstances, he wouldn't be able to discern the disguise of the top-tier secret agent.

Since everyone is at level 2, and Chu Danqing isn't a specialist in exploration and detection, it's not surprising that they were able to deceive him.

But he was certain of one thing: he had been targeted by secret agents after entering Tianfu.

It wasn't that he gave himself away, but rather that his attire and demeanor clearly set him apart from others.

The imperial spies operate strictly by law, and not everyone who enters the city will be targeted.

He estimated that if he didn't find anything unusual after watching for an hour or two, the other party would leave.

It's impossible to waste manpower and resources monitoring someone who has no problems.

Therefore, he could only enter the inn first and then book a superior room.

The feeling of being watched disappeared as soon as he entered the inn.

Clearly, he was no longer following Chu Danqing and had gone to deal with other matters.

"The entire Tianfu region is full of informants."

"Emperor Xihuan had very strong control over the capital."

"In addition to the spies sent out, their control over the area is not low."

"Such a situation, coupled with overwhelming military strength and remarkable abilities, is truly terrifying."

It's not the existence of intelligence agencies that's scary; what's scary is that these agencies are so powerful that they can infiltrate every social class.

Even from just a glimpse, one can see how powerful Emperor Xihuan was.

This made Chu Danqing waver in his plan to infiltrate the palace.

"Secondly, there is the previous Chosen One, who should still be alive and still possesses the destiny."

"But who is this person, and why has he never shown himself?"

Thinking about this, Chu Danqing also had some doubts.

"Da Bao, be on guard, I'm summoning Qian Yuan." Chu Danqing, being cautious, told Da Bao to be on alert.

He immediately summoned Yang Qianyuan to perform divination and see if there was any way to solve the current problem.
