All players: Become a Dharma King, with unlimited skill stats.

The Seventh Military Region.

There is a town here that is only about one-third the size of Shangjiang City.

But in reality, it was a large military camp built entirely by the military.

Sherlock's Thirteen Districts each has a town-like military camp stationed there to protect them.

Each district covers a different number of cities depending on its geographical location, ranging from three or four cities to dozens.

In addition to protecting all the towns in this district, they also suppress one of the rift entrances, just like the higher education institutions.

Moreover, the rifts guarded by the military region connect to the abyss world, which is a highly dangerous battlefield with extremely fierce fighting.

Shang Guozhi, the leader of the Seventh Military Region.

He looked at the report on the table, his expression shifting between light and shadow.

"The people of the Lin Yuan Sect..."

"Summon the projection of the Eclipse King?"

"Are you kidding me? Do you think the Eclipse King's projection is so easy to summon?"

Shang Guozhi seemed to be laughing in anger.

He personally participated in the disaster that occurred during the last projection of the Eclipse King.

The horrific consequences were evident in the sight of blood and flesh flying everywhere.

That time, even more than ten level 100 experts perished!

"But sir, we have already examined Li Da's mental state through a psychoanalyst and seen the scene through his visual memories."

"It was indeed a projection that had been successfully summoned, and it was dealt with by that... rookie professional."

A younger aide standing nearby, also looking at the documents in his hand, said...

Shang Guozhi did not deny the situation; he simply shook his head and said:

"I didn't mention that new professional."

"In fact, this projection of the Eclipse King is just a decoy. It only summons an incomplete projection, which can only grow to about level ten at most. It is mainly used to scare people."

"However, even so, it's not something that can be done in a day or two. Just the various rare materials and human flesh and blood alone would take those black-robed rats in the sewers several years or even a decade to prepare."

"The most serious problem now is that there might be a mole from the Lin Yuan Sect in Shangjiang City, or rather, in our Seventh District!"

"Otherwise, how could they have done this right under our noses?"

"If this matter hadn't been accidentally exposed, the consequences would have been unimaginable. Even an incomplete projection would have been enough to cause heavy losses to Shangjiang City."

"We don't even know what their real purpose is yet."

After speaking, Shang Guozhi tapped the table with two fingers, paused for a moment, and then said to his advisor, "Make arrangements for me to conduct a thorough investigation of all small and medium-sized forces in the Seventh District in secret."

"Pay special attention to any small, relatively low-profile forces that have suddenly emerged in recent years."

"Yes, sir!" The staff member immediately noted down the task, then moved on to the next topic:

"Commander, that student named An Bai, although this incomplete projection doesn't pose a real threat to destroy the city, shouldn't we commend him for his actions? Captain Li Da and Teacher Lin Qingshan from the Four Saints Academy have also submitted a letter to us suggesting this."

Upon hearing the name An Bai, the gloomy expression on Shang Guozhi's face finally melted away, replaced by a hint of comfort.

"I heard that Shangjiang City is conducting internal testing today?"

"I happen to be attending a meeting there today, I'll go check it out then."

……

Trading house.

An Bai first emptied all the materials that had been piled up in his ring.

It was exchanged for around 800,000.

Then I realized that my spatial ring was too small.

He hadn't noticed it before, but after going out of the city, he found that it was too easy to obtain materials by killing monsters, so he could easily obtain a lot of materials.

Some of these were given to Brother Zhao to help bring back and sell; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fit all the precious mountain spirit rocks in his bag.

"Holy crap, a ten-cubic-meter spatial ring costs thirty million?"

An Bai was frightened.

He brought eight million with him, thinking he was a rich guy, but he was still scared off by the price tag.

"Even though I know that the larger the space, the more exponentially the price increases, it's still too frightening..."

You should know that the ring I bought before, which has a volume of one cubic meter, only cost 30,000 yuan.

Finally, An Bai settled for second best and bought two rings, each worth 500,000 yuan and measuring three cubic meters.

In addition, there's a one-cubic-meter ring, and an equipment ring.

Judging from his hand jewelry alone, with rings on several fingers, he could be considered a wealthy man's attire to some extent.

The reason why the larger the ring, the more expensive it is is that humans only have ten fingers, and it can only be used if it is worn.

It's not that space is limited, it's that fingers are limited, so the larger the space of a single ring, the more expensive it will be, and at the same time, its performance, protection, preservation, and other aspects will naturally be better.

It also has an automatic pickup effect, and the pickup range is the size of the space.

After buying the ring, An Bai headed towards the shield area.

However, I didn't see any good quality shields here.

After looking around for a while longer, I decided not to pick and choose too many and just bought three green-quality [Standard Shield lv15]. The cost wasn't high, only a little over 10,000.

No wonder they say warriors are the easiest class to train.

Finally, he spent 1.5 million to buy two books of his own exclusive skills.

"One costs 500,000, the other 1 million. The higher the level, the more expensive it is. It truly deserves to be one of the most tycoon professions."

Another type of profession is the "Master" class, such as Summoner or Beastmaster, which are also very expensive.

Speaking of this, An Bai suddenly remembered that Brother Zhao's sister, Zhao Zhiqing, was also a summoner.

I don't know if she will be able to grow up in the end.

An Bai doesn't have much interest in this girl right now, since they've only met once.

In addition, there are always different goals at different stages.

He had already achieved and enjoyed his desire for sexual pleasure before changing jobs. Now his goal is very simple: to become stronger!

Especially after what happened yesterday.

If you don't have the ability.

Yesterday's situation turned into an accidental encounter with a projection of the Eclipse King created by the Lin Yuan Sect. Despite their best efforts, they were unable to resist and were forced to abandon the city and flee, becoming homeless, or even perishing in the disaster along with the entire town.

An Bai didn't want to end up like that!

After paying the bill, An Bai went directly to the lounge next door, took out two skill books, and began to use them on himself.

"It would be best to have a functional skill."

An Bai silently recited the mantra as he activated the level 10 skill book—

[Mastering basic mage-specific skills]

You have mastered three skills. Please choose one to fully understand and apply.

[Basic Frost Arrow]: Condenses ice element to form an arrow for attack, reducing enemy movement speed by 10% and has a 10% chance to freeze enemies. Damage is 150 + 15% of Spirit.

【Resist Fire Ring】: Condenses fire element around the user, and upon bursting, pushes nearby enemies away to a distance of 1 meter for every 1 point of mental energy, up to a maximum of 100 meters.

[Basic Slow]: Reduces the Dexterity attribute of one target.

"Slow spells are also good for most mages, since many spells have slow projectile speeds, and slow can increase the hit rate."

"However, my fireball can teleport and hit directly, so there's no need."

Frostbolt is another attack skill, so it's not really that necessary.

"After all, if my fireball spell gets too close, I'll hurt myself too, so I might as well get this fire resistance ring."

Move the enemy further away before bombing; that way, you won't be afraid of hurting yourself or the people around you.
