Bai Ye said nothing, "If I hadn't received it, would you be talking to a ghost right now?"
"Haha!" Jin Sha chuckled, "The Big Mouth Gull Express alerted me that the package was signed for, so I called you directly."
Package signed for?
Bai Ye touched his bulging forehead, gritted his teeth, and thought, Is this what you call a package signed for? Do you believe I'll report you for violent transport?
However...
Bai Ye said, "That express service is quite interesting."
Jin Sha replied, "You can't use it. This is a service from the Beast Taming Zone. It uses Big Mouth Gulls to deliver packages. All areas in the world battlefield can be delivered to, but the receiving service area is only available in the Beast Taming Zone." 138Reading Net.
"I just find it interesting, I don't plan to use it, and I don't need it." Bai Ye asked, "Speaking of the Beast Taming Zone, have you sorted out the issue with the Aerodactyl?"
Jin Sha smiled, "It's sorted. My Aerodactyl can now Mega Evolve."
Bai Ye nodded.
An Aerodactyl with top-tier black quality after Mega Evolution, a pseudo-legendary black quality Metagross, and a black quality futuristic weapon, the plasma cannon...
Jin Sha was soaring!
Currently, anyone who could possess three black quality items could essentially be considered a top-tier expert. Even though Jin Sha, as a beast tamer, had a noticeable weakness in her personal strength, preventing her from reaching the top-tier threshold, she was definitely a near-top-tier.
"So, why are you looking for me?" Bai Ye leaned back in his chair, resting his feet on the desk, "You didn't just get a communication device to show off, or to catch up, did you?"
"It's partly catching up, but there's also business." Jin Sha said, "Did you only see the Talking Bug? There should be a ticket in the express box as well."
"A ticket?"
Bai Ye picked up the cardboard box and tipped it out. A piece of paper drifted out.
Bai Ye picked up the paper and read, "Glory Arena?"
Jin Sha said, "Glory Arena..."
Bai Ye interrupted, "I know what the Glory Arena is."
The Glory Arena was a place that existed in many neutral zones. As the name suggested, the arena was centered around competition.
The most direct form was combat, from 1v1 battles to 5v5 battles, known as gladiatorial matches. Besides combat, there were also many other competitive modes.
For example, Death Race was a car race, but unlike ordinary car races, Death Race allowed players to collide with each other's vehicles, and even modify their cars to mount weapons.
There was also Treasure Hunt, where a group of people were thrown into a labyrinth to collect designated items. Whoever collected the most was the final winner, and attacking each other was also permitted.
However, battles aside, Bai Ye remembered that in his previous life, the Glory Arena was extremely popular, and the reason was...
You couldn't die!
The Glory Arena offered many competitive events, including combat and killing. However, all events had a protection mechanism, and there was no true death.
In the Glory Arena, the losing side gained nothing, while the winning side could earn points based on their performance. These points could be exchanged for many things: various weapons, items, abilities, treasures, and so on. In short, anything that could be found in the world battlefield, except for God Stone fragments, could be exchanged for Glory Arena points.
This led to a group of people who never left the neutral zones, constantly entering the Glory Arena for "safe" battles.
If it was in the early stages of the world battlefield's opening, this was indeed a good choice, allowing for a very safe increase in strength. However, as time went on, it gradually became a way to merely survive.
Because gaining points and becoming stronger through the Glory Arena was far slower than charging into forbidden zones and fighting for one's life. The despair between life and death was incredibly painful, but no one could deny that it also led to rapid growth. Moreover, the neutral zones could not protect them forever.
The safety of neutral zones was due to the existence of order. Chaos would be punished, but as long as one was powerful enough, they could disrupt order.
When the strength of the Chosen Ones reached a certain level, making them capable of disregarding the order of the neutral zones, the neutral zones would be destroyed. Would the so-called safety still exist?
Bai Ye knew very well that true safety...
Was one's own strength!
"So, you've started hanging out in the Glory Arena?" Bai Ye shook his head, "You'll regret this decision."
Jin Sha asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"The Glory Arena doesn't make people stronger. That place, in my opinion..." Bai Ye paused, then said, "Is just a place to pass the time occasionally?"
"Oh, you mean that?" Jin Sha laughed, "Of course, I know I can't stay there forever. Although the Glory Arena seems safe, it's too slow to get stronger. The cheapest black quality item costs three thousand Glory points. Winning a 1v1 gladiatorial match only gives 5 points, and losing gives 0. It's a joke."
Bai Ye asked, "Then what's your reason for looking for me?"
Jin Sha replied, "Undeniably, the Glory Arena still has some good things. I guarantee you'll be interested too."
"Oh?" Bai Ye asked curiously, "What have you found?"
Jin Sha said, "Something called a Steel Slime. Its function is very simple. It can devour any weapon, armor, magic treasure, and so on. As long as it's an external object and not one's own ability, the Steel Slime can devour it."
Bai Ye was puzzled, "And then?"
Jin Sha explained, "Then the Steel Slime can transform into the appearance of these items and possess their effects."
Bai Ye said, "You're not going to tell me that this thing is very convenient to use, and you don't need to switch items from your inventory, right?"
"Isn't that the case?" Jin Sha said, "Every time you need to switch beast companions, you need to take it out from your inventory. Even if it's on your belt, you have to reach down and take it off. Therefore, switching weapons usually takes about 1.5 to 3 seconds. Sometimes, three seconds can determine life or death."
Bai Ye replied, "I can't refute what you're saying, but there's no need to be so meticulous about it, is there?"
"I haven't finished yet." Jin Sha continued, "Secondly, there's the issue of durability. Doesn't your flying sword get chipped from daily use?"
Bai Ye admitted, "That's true."
Anything used for a long time would wear down. If a flying sword cut too many things, it would naturally develop nicks.
In fact, rather than the flying sword...
Bai Ye's black Templar uniform had suffered more wear and tear, with several tears from battles. It was only not completely destroyed, so he could still wear it without affecting its effects.
