Legend: One corpse-picking message per day

Chapter 114 Upgrade your official rank attributes and medals!

Official position!

When players first enter this world, they are all ordinary citizens.

Once you reach level 30, you can be promoted to a higher official rank.

First, we need to enable the official position function!
The activation fee is 100 million gold coins, which will directly make you a ninth-rank official.

Want a promotion? You have to spend money. No problem...

Officials are now in power!
With a ringing sound, He Sheng had 100 million gold coins deducted from his account.

"Ding-dong, congratulations on your promotion to a ninth-rank official."

Congratulations on obtaining the Rank 9 Official Token!

He Sheng opened the package and saw a gleaming golden token inside.

The top is carved with a dragon and a phoenix spiraling around, while the middle is carved with the outline of the earthen city.

Four characters are also engraved on the top and bottom:
Ninth-Rank Token:

Attack 0-5,

Magic 0-5,

Taoist skills 0-5

Defense 0-5,

Magic defense 0-5,

Damage +5%,

Damage reduction +5%
Huh? !

This token adds some nice attributes, especially since they are extra attributes.

With a thought, He Sheng put it on.

This token has a designated place in the bottom right corner of the character panel.

Should one display their official rank?

"Yes!"

He Sheng had a sudden thought, and a floating symbol appeared above his head:

A ninth-rank official!

I'm dizzy!

No wonder he occasionally saw this above players' heads; he thought it would appear automatically when they reached a certain level.

It turns out you have to pay money to buy it.

After thinking it over, He Sheng decided to hide the officials.

Being a ninth-rank official is really beneath one's dignity.

However, for ordinary players, it's not easy to unlock the ninth-rank official position.

One hundred million gold coins are required to activate the account, which is equivalent to 30 Dragon Coins.

Mining takes almost a year...

Next, it's time to get promoted to a higher official rank.

After unlocking an official position, a reputation function will be added.

There are the following ways to collect reputation:

1. Taking on apprentices!
After reaching level 30, you can take on apprentices!
Once an apprentice reaches level 30 and graduates from their apprenticeship, they will receive 100 reputation points.

You can only take on one apprentice at a time.

If the apprentice does not reach level 30, they will never gain reputation points.

This is somewhat similar to the computer game Legend that He Sheng played in his previous life.

But that's something you can gain reputation with once your apprentice reaches a certain level.

This requires mastering the skills.

This reminded He Sheng of some amusing games from his past life.

He once took on an apprentice, but that apprentice disappeared after playing for a few days.

He was so angry that he spent money to sever his master-disciple relationship.

In this legendary world, the master-disciple relationship can also be dissolved, right here with this official.

No wonder he could hear people taking on apprentices when he randomly flew to the vicinity of the starting village.

There are also requirements for apprentices; those above level 7 cannot be accepted.

Therefore, we need to recruit new people.

2. Another way to gain reputation is by killing bosses.

Defeating an elite monster grants 1 reputation point.
Bosses on regular maps, such as the Skeleton Spirit, grant 2 reputation points.

A difficult boss will reward you with 3 reputation points!
The Hell Boss rewards you with 4 reputation points!

The treasure boss rewards you with 10 reputation points.

When He Sheng saw this, he was completely stunned!

Holy crap!

This is a great design!
Am I about to take off again?!
He's killing hellish monsters all day long now!

Good heavens, this official position is practically guaranteed to skyrocket!
He quickly checked what was needed for the next level of official position.

To be promoted from level nine to level eight, the following is required:
1000 reputation points plus 200 million gold coins!

It's alright, not too many!

He only needs to kill 250 Hell Corpse Kings to gain 1000 reputation points.

But in reality, this is very difficult for others.

Most people choose to take on apprentices.

Take on an apprentice, give him some beginner equipment, send him some gold coins to get started, and help him level up when you have time, or just ignore him completely.

Once the other party reaches level 30, you will automatically gain reputation points.

However, if you don't guide your apprentices to level up, it would take an average person several months, or even a year, to reach level 30 in this environment...

To earn those 1000 reputation points, you'll need to train 10 apprentices.

That would take several years!
Of course, if you frequently kill bosses, it will be much faster.

The problem is that for ordinary players, gaining reputation by killing bosses is just as difficult as climbing Mount Everest.

Let's not even talk about whether we can beat the BOSS!

It's possible to beat them, but the key question is where to find so many bosses to fight?

Only one reputation point is gained from an elite monster.

You can get it by teaming up, but for ordinary players, it would take several days, or even more than a week, to defeat a single boss and that would already be considered lucky...

Therefore, gaining reputation by defeating powerful monsters is equally difficult. And when He Sheng checked the reputation and money required to upgrade from an eighth-level official to a seventh-level official, he was instantly annoyed.

10,000 reputation points plus 1 billion gold coins

Reputation increased tenfold! Gold coins are a bit better...

It seems that level eight officials are the ceiling for most ordinary players...

Perhaps a diligent person could train apprentices every day for over ten years...

Anyway, their lifespan is very long...

After understanding the situation, He Sheng smiled with excitement.

This official system is very advantageous to him at present.

But that only applies up to level 40.

After reaching level 40, he had no idea where to get a lot of reputation.

He was also glad that he hadn't rushed to upgrade to VIP features.

Otherwise, how many old monsters would we have saved on killing...?

Those are all reputation points!
With the official positions announced and everything understood, He Sheng put on medal number 44 with a ringing sound.

Medal No. 44:
Magic 1-3
Requires level 30 and official rank 9.

Hidden attributes:
Defense 0-1, magic defense 0-1.

The added attributes are pretty good.

Let's upgrade it now.

Promotions still come from officials.

Each time you upgrade a medal, you need five million gold coins plus one medal of the same type as materials.

If you fail, your original medal remains unchanged, but your materials will be lost.

When he spoke with the official, two upgrade boxes appeared in front of him.

Place the medal to be upgraded on the left and the materials on the right.

upgrade!

With a ringing of the bell, He Sheng was penalized with a deduction of five million gold coins!
Upgrade failed!

My day!

Bad luck!
Come again!

update successed!

Medal No. 44 (1):
Magic 1-4,

Requires level 30 and official rank 9.

Hidden attributes:
Defense 0-2, magic defense 0-2
Uh, it just adds 1 point to magic, defense, and magic resistance.

continue!

He Sheng upgraded all the remaining seven materials!
I finally earned a +5 medal!
Medal No. 44 (5):
Magic 1-8,

Requires level 30 and official rank 9.

Hidden attributes:
Defense 0-6, magic defense 0-6
The result after spending nearly 100 million gold coins is not bad.

However, He Sheng clearly felt that the chances of success were getting lower and lower.

He succeeded twice in a row.

But in the end, he failed three times in a row...

With this thought in mind, He Sheng asked Yu Jie a question.

Yu Jie replied with a smile, "That's right, the chances of upgrading the medal decrease as you go on."

He Sheng was speechless: "Oh, it's so low, who would bother upgrading those points? It's such a waste of money."

"Haha, there are special attribute bonuses when you upgrade to level 10."

Besides, if you don't upgrade to level 10, you won't be able to upgrade it to a new medal.

"Damn! This is a total rip-off..."

"Isn't that right? Everything here costs money, it's so difficult..."

"What are you afraid of, you rich lady? You're not short of money."

"Who doesn't need money? It's just relative. The places where money is needed later are all incredibly large," Yu Jie sighed.

"How big is it?"

"I won't say it, I'm afraid it will make you despair."

He Sheng: "It's okay. You have to eat one bite at a time. I'm not in a hurry to succeed."

"You're not going to keep us in suspense."

"Haha, putting everything else aside, a shortfall of hundreds of billions is the norm going forward." Yu Jie's voice was tinged with helplessness.

He Sheng was utterly speechless...

Thinking about it, it's actually not that surprising...

Making a low-level artifact requires 20 billion gold coins; for the later ones, hundreds of billions are commonplace.
There is a long way to go...

Take it easy……

By this time, he had completed his official career and his medals had been upgraded...

Next, he was already level 30, and he wondered if he should take advantage of the time while waiting for the Corpse King to complete the card quests in the other two maps.

Those are the card quests from Pig Cave and Zuma Temple.

He will gain more attributes if he completes these two map quests.

Even if he kills a monster single-handedly,

Each map can be cleared one by one, but this will also increase your experience significantly.

After all, he now has double experience, and in all three modes, even if he only kills one of each type on each map, it adds up to a lot.

In any case, it will definitely save a lot of Hell Corpse Kings from being killed.

He calculated carefully and concluded that there were probably only about ten monsters in total on these two maps.

Adding about ten points to his attributes doesn't seem to have a significant impact on him right now.

Then there's no need to do it first.

I'm level 30 now and want to continue improving my attributes, but there's still one attribute I haven't upgraded yet.

That's the Zuma equipment illustration and attributes!
It's ready to be activated!

It should increase the cost significantly, but it will also definitely cost a lot of money because Zuma equipment is expensive.

But for those that are permanently activated, it doesn't matter. Let's activate them all first, since I'm not planning on upgrading to VIP right now anyway...

Today was a bit difficult to write; I added new details and thought about it for a long time.
