Chapter 117 Eternal City

Nie Yan came out of the Kardi blacksmith shop, took out the level 20 Thief's Gold set he had exchanged from the Fallen Leaf Studio, tempered it, and sent a message to Tang Yao, "Come back, I'll take you leveling."

"Okay, I'm getting tired of farming scaled toads here." Tang Yao was immediately excited when he heard Nie Yan say they were going leveling together, and he read a Return Scroll.

Nie Yan walked to the teleportation array and met up with Tang Yao.

"Are Yao Yao and Sun not with you?" Nie Yan asked, seeing only Tang Yao.

"They said leveling with us would slow us down. They can farm scaled toads themselves," Tang Yao said.

Nie Yan thought about it. If Yao Yao and Sun came along, the four of them would indeed get less experience. It would be better for them to farm scaled toads on their own. At their current level, farming scaled toads was still quite fast. Although the consumption was high, buying Mist Dust cost a lot of money, the value of the equipment they dropped from the scaled toads far exceeded their expenses. They sold the equipment to the guild, and the guild provided them with money, which was enough to cover the cost of Mist Dust.

"That's fine, farming scaled toads isn't slow either."

"Yao Yao wants to take Yu Lan and the others leveling, to bring their levels up too."

Nie Yan nodded. After what happened outside the Blackflame Forest, Yu Lan and the others were already staunch members of the Mad Rogue's guild. Bringing up their levels was equivalent to increasing the strength of the Mad Rogue's guild.

"Get ready, we'll set off immediately." Nie Yan said. Pao Ding had already reached level 26 on the level rankings. He didn't know how far behind Tang Yao was in experience, but he couldn't let him be surpassed.

"Okay, just a moment." Tang Yao deposited his loot into the guild warehouse, bought some consumables from the pharmacy, and bought a few more Return Scrolls.

The two gathered at the teleportation point in Calore City, spent fifteen silver coins each, and teleported to Komdor Town.

Komdor Town was deserted. There were only one or two NPCs on the streets. The area around Komdor Town was full of high-level maps, and players wouldn't come here at all right now.

In his previous life, Komdor Town was the most popular place for gem trading. The nearby high-level maps all produced gems, especially the Eternal City, which produced the largest number and quality of gems. Almost every day, a large number of gem craftsmen frantically purchased gems here.

The two walked out of Komdor Town and headed south. After walking for more than ten minutes across the plains, a magnificent golden castle appeared in the distance at the end of the plains, right before Nie Yan and Tang Yao's eyes.

Tang Yao opened his mouth in amazement. This golden castle was even more spectacular than the central area of Calore City, covering a huge area. Inside, towering domed buildings stood majestically, resplendent and gilded.

The Eternal City was a legacy of the Dark Ages. The atrocities of the Dragon Tribe forced many races to seek self-preservation. For example, the Goblins built this invincible fortress and created many powerful mechanical creatures to save their lives. During the most prosperous period of the Dragon Tribe in the Dark Ages, the Dragon Army failed to capture this castle, so it was known as the Eternal City.

After the Dark Ages passed, humans gained control of this land, and the goblins were expelled by humans because of their ugly appearance. Although the Eternal City was not captured, the wisdom of mankind was infinite. They drove griffins to spray alchemical poison mist from the air, and finally wiped out all the goblins here.

When one race conquers another, there is only barbarism and atrocities, not just the Dragon Tribe, but humans too!

This was the background of the Eternal City.

For players, this was a level 40 leveling spot. Inside, Mechanical Constructs spawned, some mechanical units.

Nie Yan and Tang Yao walked to the bottom of the Eternal City. The gates of the Eternal City were tightly closed. The huge iron gate, five or six yards high, gave people a sense of heavy oppression.

Nie Yan slowly pushed open the iron gate. Inside were neat and open streets, more than ten yards wide. Occasionally, one or two skeletons could be seen on the ground, about the size of a child. These were all dead goblins, silently denouncing the crimes of mankind.

"You stand still, I'll lure the monsters," Nie Yan said. Tang Yao's attack damage was completely ineffective against the Mechanical Constructs. He could only rely on the AoE Magic Bombs in his hand to level up. Moreover, Tang Yao's movement speed was too slow, so he wasn't suitable for using AoE Magic Bombs. He was just here to get experience.

"Where does that charging crystal you mentioned drop?" Tang Yao asked.

"Ordinary Mechanical Constructs don't have it. Among these level 40 Mechanical Constructs, occasionally one or two blue Mechanical Constructs will appear, which are level 50 normal monsters. They drop Charging Crystal Shards, but you need to collect 100 Charging Crystal Shards to synthesize a Charging Crystal."

"Wouldn't that be very simple?"

"There are a total of 130 blue Mechanical Constructs on the outer ring of the Eternal City. After they are killed, they will not respawn, so finding 100 blue Mechanical Constructs is very difficult. At the same time, the blue Mechanical Constructs have more than three times the health of ordinary Mechanical Constructs, so in one or two days, you won't be able to get many Charging Crystal Shards. It all depends on luck whether you can find 100 blue Mechanical Constructs." Nie Yan said. Apart from that, unless you killed a Legendary Mechanical Construct, which was equivalent to a Lord-class existence, he wouldn't consider it for the time being.

Nie Yan ran towards the distance, entered Stealth, and looked into the distance. There were five or six piles of Mechanical Constructs, each pile with about twenty or thirty, with a bit of distance between them.

Most of the Mechanical Constructs were constructed of gray metal, a bit like a giant cylinder, a bit like a robot left over from ancient times. They were very tall and moved clumsily, and their movement speed was not fast. Occasionally, there was a Mechanical Construct with a blue body.

He threw a Detect at the Mechanical Constructs.

Gray Iron Mechanical Construct: Level 40, Health 3000/3000.

Blue Armor Mechanical Construct: Level 50, Health 8000/8000.

Blue Armor Mechanical Constructs only appear when exploring the Eternal City for the first time, and the drops are better, but they disappear after the exploration is over. The first Legendary Mechanical Construct drops a complete Charging Crystal. If it is killed, the respawned Legendary Mechanical Construct will not drop it again. Therefore, the entire Eternal City only drops two Charging Crystals in total.

They were all mechanical units, and only elite-level Mechanical Constructs appeared in the central area, so using AoE Magic Bombs to level up here was the best.

Nie Yan slowly sneaked in, bringing a pile of Mechanical Constructs into range, and shot three arrows at the Mechanical Constructs. Ding, ding, ding, the three arrows hit one of the Mechanical Constructs at the same time, and damage numbers of -1 floated above the Mechanical Construct.

More than twenty Mechanical Constructs were all attracted by Nie Yan and chased after him. After all, they were level 40 monsters, and their movement speed was only slightly slower than Nie Yan's.

Nie Yan ran quickly, passed another pile of Mechanical Constructs, and shot out three more arrows, attracting another pile of Mechanical Constructs.

He kept luring monsters like this, and Nie Yan lured about three or four hundred Mechanical Constructs, a dense mass behind him.

"My god." Tang Yao glanced at Nie Yan's back, a dark mass, it was too shocking.

Nie Yan led these Mechanical Constructs and ran on the open street. He turned his head and threw a black iron piece from his hand. The piece was thrown high, forming a parabola, and fell from the air into the midst of the Mechanical Constructs.

With a bang, the AoE Magic Bomb exploded, and raging flames quickly covered hundreds of Mechanical Constructs around it, then quickly dissipated, emitting a cloud of black smoke. The scene was quite spectacular.

-600, -600...

Dense damage numbers floated above the heads of these Mechanical Constructs. Many Mechanical Constructs turned black, as if they had been smoked.

The aggro of these Mechanical Constructs was even more concentrated, and they chased after Nie Yan. Seeing that the AoE Magic Bomb had cooled down, Nie Yan turned his head and threw another AoE Magic Bomb.

The AoE Magic Bomb fell and exploded again with a bang, sweeping across the Mechanical Constructs next to it.

After a while, he threw the third and fourth bombs, and after a while, the fifth AoE Magic Bomb fell, and with a bang, a large group fell to the ground, with a large pile of corpses and parts of Mechanical Constructs scattered on the ground.

About seventy Mechanical Constructs were killed.

A large number of Mechanical Constructs fell, and Nie Yan's experience soared.

Two rays of white light fell on Nie Yan's head, and two crisp system prompts sounded. Nie Yan looked at his level and saw that he had reached level 21.

"Damn, so much experience." Tang Yao shouted excitedly, these monsters allowed him to break through level 26 and instantly reach 37% of level 27.

The Mechanical Constructs had extremely high defense and thick health, and were originally monsters with a lot of experience. Now Nie Yan and Tang Yao were leveling up against higher-level monsters, so the experience gained from leveling up was extremely rich, and they were also killing in groups, so their leveling speed was extremely fast.

One AoE Magic Bomb after another was thrown into the sky, then fell, and swept down a large area with a bang, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. Only fragments of Mechanical Constructs were left on the ground.

Nie Yan leveled up to level 23, and Tang Yao soared to level 28.

"Pick up the equipment." Nie Yan turned his head and said to the stunned Tang Yao, looking at his backpack, he had used up a total of thirty-nine AoE Magic Bombs, and this was just one wave!

Tang Yao looked at his level and still felt a sense of disbelief. He had been farming scaled toads there, and he couldn't level up even once in two days, but in just half an hour, he had directly jumped from level 26 to level 28? What a powerful leveling speed! Tang Yao could even imagine the desperate mood of Pao Ding, who was desperately chasing his level, about to catch up, when suddenly the other party jumped two levels in a row, and the level was suddenly widened!

*Sob sob sob, a few minutes late, I didn't get yesterday's incentive votes. I took a look at the number of incentive votes that have taken effect this month, more than 1,600, Snail is dumbfounded. Everyone is so fierce. Continue to ask for monthly tickets and recommendations!!!*
