Chapter 1 The New Abak Set

Fortunately, the Aura of Frost was targeted at enemies, and Nie Yan could control it at will. Otherwise, he would have become someone no one could approach.

Nie Yan put on the brand-new Abak Set. The streamlined outfit, with its bizarre shape, was in line with the consistent style of a Thief, yet it didn't lack domineering aura. The surface of these pieces of equipment was polished to an exceptionally smooth sheen, shining with a pure metallic luster. Each Abak component was engraved with a rune, each different, yet surprisingly harmonious.

Streams of blue light flowed continuously across the surface of the equipment, and a strong chill radiated outwards. White ice flowers formed in the surrounding air. Even if Nie Yan did not express any hostility, the people around him could feel the piercing cold.

His equipment was already top-notch. As for accessories and the like, although they had some influence on his own strength, the impact was not significant. He could get some from the guild warehouse and then craft them.

These were already minor details. With this set of equipment, Nie Yan's stats had reached a level that countless players looked up to.

Regarding defense, the leather armor in the Abak Set had 12,830 defense, the leggings had 6,382 defense, the gauntlets had 5,290 defense, the cloak had 3,290 defense, the boots had 3,293 defense, and the shoulder pads had 3,272 defense. Combined with Nie Yan's own defense, as well as defense bonuses, etc., his defense had reached an astonishing figure of over eighty thousand.

This was unimaginable for a player who was not even level 200.

Nie Yan estimated that with this kind of defense, he could even withstand the attacks of a level 210 Shadow Demon Lord without any problems.

"Mr. Brownnick, thank you for helping me reforge the Abak Set," Nie Yan thanked Brownnick.

Brownnick said with trepidation, "Honorable Nie Yan, there's no need to be so polite. This is what I should do."

Thinking about his titles of Legendary Thief and Great Inquisitor, Nie Yan suddenly understood. Thinking about it, his titles were extremely high in status to these NPCs, so their attitude was normal.

"Honorable Nie Yan, a great disaster is about to descend soon. It is a great honor for me to forge equipment for you, and it can be regarded as a contribution that I can make to the living beings of the world," Brownnick said.

Hearing Brownnick's words, Nie Yan was slightly stunned. A great disaster, what kind of disaster was it? Nie Yan tried to get more information out of Brownnick, but he failed. Brownnick seemed to be very secretive about this matter.

Forget it, I'll go back and use the Great Prophecy to see what's going to happen, so I can be prepared. It might be some kind of expansion pack or something.

With the equipment reforged, Nie Yan considered that he had finished one thing. He teleported back to Okoron City and reforged all his accessories as well. The Void Silver ore that Guo Huai and the others had sent people to collect came in handy. Forging necklaces didn't require an entire piece of metal, just a small amount was enough. Plus, he had some remaining Ancient Metal on him, which could all be used.

Nie Yan found a hidden place and used the Great Prophecy, but unfortunately the Great Prophecy did not work. It seemed that he couldn't predict it, so he could only take it one step at a time.

It's almost time to get rid of those level 210 Shadow Demon Lords!

Nie Yan came out of a private house and walked towards the distance, crossing the central street of Okoron City.

Wearing a black cloak, Nie Yan was not conspicuous among the players. From time to time, players wearing cloaks walked along the street, and there were many with similar builds to Nie Yan. Even acquaintances from the Ni Ren Guild wouldn't recognize him face to face.

As Nie Yan walked along the road, the players on both sides stepped back and stopped to look at Nie Yan, their faces full of shock.

They felt a bone-chilling cold, as if their whole bodies were about to freeze. Looking at Nie Yan, Nie Yan's body was hidden under the black cloak, and they couldn't see what equipment he was wearing. His appearance was also completely hidden under the cloak. Looking into the cloak, they seemed to feel a cold gaze looking at them, and they couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

Who is this guy? Could it be some powerful Ice Mage?

Although they had felt cold air from some Ice Mages in the past, it had never been as intense as from this person today. Even when Ice Mages released ice magic, they couldn't cause such a dramatic range of cold effects!

Nie Yan hadn't even activated the Aura of Frost yet. If he activated the Aura of Frost, he didn't know how many people would die along the way!

The Aura of Frost had no cooldown time and could be activated at any time. Once activated, it would definitely be a disaster for the people around him.

Looking at the respectful eyes of the players on both sides, Nie Yan didn't expect that just the ordinary effect of the equipment would cause such a sensational effect.

Passing by the entrance of the Ni Ren Guild, Nie Yan hesitated for a moment. He would not appear for the time being. He would wait until he had improved his strength to the point where he was confident of winning against Duoduo before appearing. The sensation that would cause could be imagined.

Nie Yan decisively walked all the way and continued his quest progress.

Just as Nie Yan was walking along the road, Nie Yan's voice rang out. It was Guo Huai's.

"Nie Yan, I just got the news that Duoduo is now doing a quest to change his class to a Legendary profession. It is said that he will definitely be able to complete it within two months. What should we do?" Guo Huai said worriedly. In his opinion, if Duoduo successfully changed his class to a Legendary profession, then Nie Yan would basically have no chance of winning.

Nie Yan smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, he will definitely go to change his class to Legendary. I guessed this a long time ago. Two months is a bit slower than I expected. I thought he would be able to change his class to Legendary within a month."

"If he successfully changes his class to Legendary, how can you win?" Guo Huai said, thinking about it, he even couldn't help but want to send Ying Sha, Wang Zhe Tian Xia and the others to interfere with Duoduo's class change quest. What he didn't know was that Nie Yan had already advanced to Legendary before anyone else.

"I have just successfully changed my class to Legendary Thief." Nie Yan said after a moment of silence. Guo Huai was one of his own people, so there was no need to hide it. He just needed to keep Guo Huai secret.

Guo Huai was shocked by this news and said in disbelief, "You have already successfully changed your class? How is that possible! How long have you been playing the game! Tang Yao has been doing that class change quest for at least two years, and he has only completed 90% so far! How are you so fast?" This was simply an unimaginable thing!

"Nothing is impossible. I took the quest three years ago and have already completed most of it. I was only short of two pieces of Broken Divine Spark. Now that I have collected the Divine Spark, it was very easy to change my class successfully."

"Three years ago..." Guo Huai was stunned for a moment. It turned out that Nie Yan had been doing the class change quest three years ago, and he was only short of two Divine Sparks. Nie Yan hadn't played the game in these three years. If Nie Yan was in the game, Guo Huai couldn't imagine what the situation would be like. He couldn't help but be overjoyed and said, "I was worried about you for nothing. It turns out that you were prepared long ago. I'm relieved. In this month, wait for Duoduo to successfully change his class to Legendary, and your level should be able to catch up with him, right? What level are you now?"

"Level 196," Nie Yan said.

"Sure enough, you pervert, what a fierce leveling speed! You are only four levels away from level 200. You are catching up so fast," Guo Huai praised. If Nie Yan announced his current level, he didn't know what kind of shock it would cause. It was simply inhuman.

If Duoduo knew that Nie Yan was already level 196 and had successfully changed his class to Legendary, he would probably be restless now. When Nie Yan attacked the Dark Faction and challenged Duoduo, Guo Huai wondered what Duoduo's expression would be like, and he couldn't help but think maliciously.

"I also want to tell you another piece of news. Sun, Wang Zhe Tian Xia, and the others have helped you find three more Chapters of Order, but the last Chapter of Divinity is the core chapter, and you can only go there yourself," Guo Huai said. When the Chapters of Order were collected, Nie Yan would have the title of Pope again, which could at least match Duoduo's title of Speaker of the Dark Council. Their levels were similar, and their titles and professions were equally matched. In terms of equipment, Nie Yan had just forged the Divine Set. In terms of skill, Nie Yan was definitely not inferior to Duoduo, so the chances of winning were greater.

What Guo Huai didn't know was that Nie Yan had just obtained the title of Great Inquisitor, which was no less than the Pope, and could also use the Shield of Kalenna of the Guardian Angel Kalenna.

Nie Yan smiled. He was too lazy to show off these things one by one. It was enough to know in his heart and said, "Let them keep those Chapters of Order for now. I'll go level up a few levels and then come back to find the Chapter of Divinity," Nie Yan said. The progress should be slow and steady. It would be better to level up to level 200 before looking for the Chapter of Divinity, as the chances of success would be greater. After all, Duoduo was level 205 before he collected all the Chapters of Chaos. The quest to collect the last chapter should not be simple.

"Okay, send me a message if you need anything," Guo Huai said.

"I harvested some Skulls of the Dead in the Dark Dead Zone, and they are all stored in your personal warehouse. You can handle those Skulls of the Dead."

"I see them. What are these Skulls of the Dead for? They are so powerful. It's obviously too uneconomical to sell them to the Dark Faction. It's simply helping the enemy. It's too much of a loss to purify them."

"Why purify them? There are quite a few guilds in the Dark Faction that are hostile to Fallen Angel. It's better to sell them to them cheaply. If they have such powerful things, Fallen Angel will suffer."

"Your move is ruthless enough. It's simply killing people invisibly. I'll handle it immediately."

"Remember to sell them cheaply, otherwise they won't be able to afford them. You also have to prevent them from buying too many at once and then reselling them in the auction house."

"I understand. Are you still worried about me?" Guo Huai said with a chuckle. This time, he could give Fallen Angel a good trick. These Skulls of the Dead would probably give Duoduo a headache.

After Nie Yan chatted with Guo Huai for a while, he cut off the voice call. After replenishing his supplies in the city, he teleported outside the Gate of the Dead.

Thousands of players were gathered outside the Gate of the Dead, bustling with activity. Many people were constantly shouting to form teams. At least a team of thousands of people would dare to enter the Dark Dead Zone. Nie Yan ignored these players and walked straight into the Dark Dead Zone.
