Chapter 189 Detoxification Bead

Guided by Bennett's soul, Nie Yan quickly found a second Dark Treant. There were indeed more Dark Treants here!

Having learned from his experience killing the first Dark Treant, defeating them became much easier. Following the same procedure, he felled them one by one. He didn't find the remaining two fragments of Nadaka's legendary items, but the blueprint fragments for the Giant Ballista gradually increased. After taking down six Dark Treants, he finally gathered all five blueprint pieces.

In the future, there would definitely be more and more design blueprints like these. The guild needed a large number of mechanics. Although Nirvana Guild was vigorously training them and had already achieved some results, development in this area had stagnated recently due to financial constraints. Without a large injection of funds, even the most skilled housewife couldn't cook without rice.

The reason Nie Yan came to the underground was to solve Nirvana Guild's financial difficulties. With money, he could train more talented mechanics to build these Giant Ballistas.

After spending an entire day, Nie Yan finally collected all three fragments of the Detoxification Bead. When these three fragments were put together, they emitted a dazzling light and slowly merged into a round, pigeon-egg-sized bead, emitting a faint green glow that flickered in and out of existence.

He checked the Detoxification Bead's stats.

Detoxification Bead: Special Item, Quantity: 1/3. Occupies one accessory slot.

Item Attributes: +30 Poison Resistance while equipped, ignores all Intermediate poisons, attached skill: Advanced Detoxification, removes all Advanced and lower poison effects. Skill cooldown: 5 minutes.

Restriction: None.

The Detoxification Bead and Molten Heart both had their own unique uses. Having these items would be very useful, especially in emergencies.

Throughout the day, Nie Yan's level also rose from Level 58 to Level 63, surpassing Tang Yao, who was at the top of the level rankings. Tang Yao was currently at Level 60. As for the others, the highest was only Level 58.

Seeing Nie Yan's level, Tang Yao was speechless. No matter what, he could never catch up to Nie Yan.

Nie Yan had made up his mind. From now on, he would widen the gap between himself and ordinary players. His goal was Level 100, Shadow Dance! With a full set of Abak equipment, he would charge straight to Level 180!

At that time, clad in divine equipment, he would show no mercy to any enemy he encountered!

As a reborn individual, he had to use this overwhelming momentum to defeat all his enemies, making them unable to muster any resistance when they saw him!

Of course, this goal was a long one. Precisely because he had been reborn, he understood the difficulty of reaching Level 180!

Moreover, once the highest-level player exceeded the levels of the players below too much, it would trigger system adjustments. The system would adjust experience values, making it easier for the players below to level up, preventing them from being left too far behind.

Even if the system adjusted, so what!

As humanity's most powerful mainframe, the Federation used laws to constrain its programming behavior, but had no right to modify the mainframe's data.

As long as Nie Yan's actions complied with the mainframe's rules, everything was fine.

Nie Yan logged off and made a trip to the company. Under Ah Chen's leadership, Ares had begun its campaign. Nirvana Guild sent a large number of elite players to assist the Ares Guild. With Nirvana Guild's help, Ares Guild forcefully occupied three fortresses in Nissod City. The top players of Nirvana Guild were simply unreasonably strong. Wherever they were, the situation on the battlefield was basically one-sided. The Tuoba Family retreated steadily. Tuoba Hongye was furious, but he could not find any outside help. The Tuoba Family had previously fallen out with the Century Financial Group, so the Century Financial Group would definitely not offer rescue. In the entire Greenland Empire, there was basically no one who could contend with Nirvana Guild and Ares Guild. As for reality, the other two members of the Tuoba Family were hindering him, making it even harder for him to act. Seeing that his position as the head of the family was in jeopardy, the situation was irreversible.

The rise of Ares Guild was too strong and caught people off guard. After Nie's father took over the three credit-point commercial districts, Nie's family alone was unable to develop them. He found several business clients to jointly develop the credit-point commercial districts, collecting transfer fees and making a killing.

On the other side, Nie's father reached a cooperation with Tuoba Shi. After this deal was completed, the Nie family's capital would expand several times.

In his previous life, given the Nie family's development momentum, if Cao Xu hadn't intervened, it would definitely have been able to develop into a large consortium. It was a pity that the Nie family's development momentum was too strong, touching the Century Financial Group's interests, which led the Century Financial Group to decide to take action against the Nie family. In his previous life, with the Century Financial Group's strength, the Nie family's business shrank by more than half in one fell swoop. In the final analysis, their strength was not enough.

The development situation in this life was a little different. At least in the virtual industry, with Nirvana Guild protecting them, Ares Guild could be said to be progressing steadily.

Ares Guild's funds slowly became abundant, and it could even support Nirvana Guild in return. Nie Yan was relieved. After these five days, he would make Battle Blades collapse completely!

Battle Blades had long been on its last breath, with more than half of its members gone, leaving only the core members, about fifty to sixty thousand, whose combat power was still astonishing. If they fought with all their might, they could indeed cause some trouble for Nirvana Guild.

In the previous pursuit order battle, Nirvana Guild also suffered heavy losses and could not withstand many more wars. Recently, with Nie Yan's capital injection, it had regained its vitality and needed to recuperate. Anyway, now that they had money, they would first drag out Battle Blades, dragging it to the point of being half-dead!

After being busy for a day, he went out shopping with Xie Yao, which was quite enjoyable. Xie's father had also tacitly approved of Nie Yan and Xie Yao being together.

According to Xie Yao, her parents would probably stay at home for three or four days and then take a plane to Europe.

When he was at Xie Yao's house, looking at Xie Yao's delicate and lovely appearance, Nie Yan's heart itched, but he had to pretend to be serious.

But he was also calm. He had waited so many years in his previous life, and he didn't mind waiting another year or two. When the conditions were right, he would grandly make Xie Yao his woman. Instead of waiting for the Dragonsoar Financial Group and Zhengrong Financial Group to take pity on him, he might as well make the Nie family stronger, so that the Dragonsoar Financial Group and Zhengrong Financial Group would be convinced, and so that shrewish women like Xie Yi would have nothing to say!

When it was evening, Nie Yan returned home. He found that a huge gaming pod was quietly standing in his room. This gaming pod was about two and a half meters high and was made of transparent special materials. Various complex instruments and chips were placed on both sides, looking very precise. After walking in and closing the gaming pod door, he could enter the virtual world through bio-currents.

The gaming pod was equipped with nutrient fluid, which would provide the human body with the energy it needed and improve the user's physique.

Seeing the mark of the Dark Covenant in the corner of the gaming pod, Nie Yan's heart was shaken. It was a Dark Covenant gaming pod!

As a fanatical Faith enthusiast in his previous life, Nie Yan had collected information on all types of Faith gaming pods. Among them, the Dark Covenant series was the most stable in performance among all gaming pods, with even the worst one costing more than fifty million.

A note was placed on the table next to the gaming pod. It was obviously his father's handwriting, which read: To celebrate your admission to the First Military Academy, your mother said she would buy you a gaming pod.

His father was always not good at expressing his concern for Nie Yan, pushing all the credit to his mother's head, but Nie Yan could still feel his father's deep love from this note.

Nie Yan called his father and mother.

Nie Yan had long wanted to buy a good gaming helmet, but as for the gaming pod, he hadn't thought about it for the time being, because it was too expensive and a bit of a waste. He didn't expect his father and mother to buy it for him directly. With the gaming pod, Nie Yan's operations in the game could be smoother, especially when using free skills. Using free skills had high requirements for equipment. After advancing to Grand Thief, most players would buy better gaming helmets. If they had a gaming pod like Nie Yan, that would be even better.

He could say goodbye to gaming helmets from now on!

Nie Yan put on the gaming pod-specific clothing and entered the gaming pod. A weak current flowed through various parts of his body, which was very comfortable. A flash of white light, and he entered Faith.

As soon as he entered Faith, Nie Yan noticed a significant difference. Everything around him became clearer and more real. When he touched objects with his hands, even the slightest feeling could be clearly transmitted to his brain. After moving around, his body moved more smoothly. All of this excited Nie Yan. Sure enough, having a gaming pod was different.

Nie Yan shifted his feet and made a backstab motion, which was much easier than before.

After getting familiar with the gaming pod, Nie Yan continued his current quest. Under the guidance of Bennett's soul, he gradually delved deeper into the volcanic area. A river of lava flowed down the hillside, and a pungent smell of sulfur filled the air.

Nie Yan put on the Leap Ring, jumped up, and leaped over the lava river. He reached the mountainside, and a deep cave appeared in front of him. He didn't know what was inside.

Since this map was of a higher level, Nie Yan was a little worried about whether there would be any danger, but at this time, Bennett's soul trembled violently and flew into the cave.

Nie Yan hesitated for a moment, but still followed. Since he had come here, it would be a waste of all his previous efforts if he retreated now.

A scorching heat wave erupted from the cave. If he hadn't equipped the Molten Heart, such a hot temperature would definitely cause him to lose health continuously.

Walking through the cave, the cave walls were covered with yellow crystals, all of which were sulfur, a material for making gunpowder. It was a pity that he needed to find miners to collect them.
