Online game: Thunder Tyrant, I have infinite critical hits!

It really is related to the fragments of the Tiger Soul!

And it's in the Dragon Palace!

Jiang Yan had originally planned to go to the Dragon Palace to find out the truth about the invasion of evil forces a thousand years ago, so this mission was just a side job for him.

but……

Jiang Yan tried hard to suppress his joy and feigned embarrassment: "Boss, you think too highly of me. I was already incredibly lucky to enter the Dragon Palace last time, and I paid a huge price for it. Aren't you... making things difficult for me?"

The blacksmith, of course, knew this and quickly said, "Don't worry, as long as you can help me find the Tiger Soul fragment in the Dragon Palace, I can reward you with a spirit-grade equipment!"

Spirit-level equipment?

Even dogs wouldn't want that!

Jiang Yan has nine pieces of spirit-level equipment. Does he need one more?

Jiang Yan shook his head vigorously: "No, no, I really can't do it. Boss, please delegate the task to someone else."

The blacksmith's dough twitched, knowing he was about to be ripped off, but there was nothing he could do. Of all the adventurers he could contact, only Jiang Yan had the ability and strength to enter the Dragon Palace!

"Tell me, what do you want? As long as I have it, I'll give it to you!" The blacksmith shop owner looked up, as if he were offering his neck for execution.

You want to satisfy all my needs?

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yan's eyes immediately lit up: "Boss, do you have any spiritual substances here?"

"Spiritual matter?" The blacksmith shook his head repeatedly. "No, no, even if there was any, it's been absorbed. Where would I get any extra for you?"

"What about the Spirit-level key?" Jiang Yan asked, settling for second best.

"No, no," the blacksmith continued to shake his head.

But Jiang Yan noticed a moment of hesitation in him.

"You old bastard, you still dare to hide things..." Jiang Yan sneered inwardly, but his face was full of regret: "In that case, boss, find someone else."

With that, Jiang Yan turned and walked outside.

"Hey, wait a minute!" the blacksmith shop owner cried anxiously. "Young friend, besides these, don't you want anything else? Equipment, skill books, treasure maps, pill recipes—I have them all!"

This guy really has a lot of good stuff... Jiang Yan was taken aback, but he didn't stop walking.

Seeing Jiang Yan about to walk out of the shop, the blacksmith was practically bursting with anxiety: "Fine, fine, you win! A spirit-level key, huh? I'll give it to you!!"

As he spoke, a pleasant system notification sounded in Jiang Yan's ear:

[Ding~ The blacksmith has issued you a quest: Find fragments of the ancient demonic weapon [Tiger Soul] in the Dragon Palace. Quest reward: 1 Spirit-level Key! Quest failure penalty: None!]

"Only one key..." Jiang Yan stopped in his tracks, somewhat dissatisfied with the reward.

"Kid, don't be ungrateful. You know the value of this spirit-level key. I don't have any more!" the blacksmith shop owner growled.

Jiang Yan thought this made sense. After all, even Lin Wudi, the city lord of the main city, only had one spirit-level key. It was already quite remarkable that the blacksmith shop owner had one.

"Alright." Jiang Yan smiled and accepted the task, saying, "Boss, wait for my good news!"

With that, Jiang Yan waved and left.

Teleporting to the Sea Demon City via the teleportation array, Jiang Yan immediately spotted Bafanglaicai (meaning "Wealth from All Directions") not far away.

"Brother Lai Cai." Jiang Yan walked over and noticed the fat man's face full of frustration and anger, so he asked curiously, "What happened?"

Upon hearing Jiang Yan's voice, Bafanglaicai rushed over excitedly, exclaiming angrily, "Brother Jiang, I've been assassinated! My Dark Gold Staff was also destroyed, damn it!!"

No wonder he was in such a hurry to ask me for the staff, and he looked so aggrieved. But... Jiang Yan became even more curious: "Who killed you?"

You should know that Bafanglaicai is a hidden professional player with a full set of dark gold and gold equipment. In addition, he brings more than 20 bodyguards with him when he is leveling up. With such a lineup, who can assassinate him?

"It wasn't one person who tried to assassinate me, it was an organization called 'The Hunter'!" Bafang Laicai gritted his teeth. "This assassin organization was only recently established, and it's incredibly powerful. I heard they poached elites from all the major assassin organizations! This assassination attempt was twofold: first, someone placed a large sum of money on it, and second, they wanted to establish their reputation to make it easier to get more clients in the future! But they dared to use me as a stepping stone! If I don't kill them, I'll change my surname to theirs!!"

"I see..." After hearing the whole story, Jiang Yan nodded in understanding, then asked, "Do you need any help?"

Bafanglaicai decisively shook his head: "No need for Brother Jiang to take action. I'll just hire a few more bodyguards and call some more people from the association. Last time I wasn't prepared enough. This time, I'm determined to retaliate!"

"Call me anytime if you need anything." With that, Jiang Yan initiated a transaction request with Bafanglaicai.

After agreeing, Jiang Yan placed the [Unnamed Staff] on it.

"This spirit-grade staff can be named by itself?" Upon receiving the wind-element spirit-grade staff, Bafanglaicai trembled with excitement and immediately named it: 【Bafanglaicai Staff】!

Upon seeing the name, Jiang Yan's lips twitched, and he couldn't bear to look at it anymore: "Um, I have something to do, Brother Lai Cai, I'll be going now."

With that, Jiang Yan quickly left.

"Brother Jiang, thank you so much!" Bafanglaicai waved his staff excitedly.

Before long, the changes in the equipment rankings attracted the attention of many players.

Playing the lute to a cow: Which expert has managed to get a Spirit-level equipment again?

Phoenix Dance for a few days: 【Eight Directions Wealth Staff】, is this a proper name?

East Evil West Poison: I just found this staff. It's called something like "Unnamed Staff." That name must have been given later.

Xiudou: So this staff brings wealth from all directions?

Big Ben: Isn't Bafanglaicai the guild leader of the [Peerless] Guild? I heard that he was able to become a hidden profession entirely thanks to Jiang Taigong. Could this staff have also been given to him by Jiang Taigong?

Burying Love-Green: I'm so envious, Jiang Taigong, could you give me some spirit-level equipment too?

Big Head Son: Dad Jiang, I don't care, any dark gold color will do!

As public opinion spread, the people involved in the "hunting" soon joined in.

King of Assassins (Vice President of the Hunting Guild): Hahaha, wealth from all directions! I just looted your Dark Gold Staff, and now you're asking your dad for a Spirit-grade Staff? Fine, fine, I'll loot it right now!

Hunting the World (Vice President of the Hunting Guild): Bafanglaicai is such a good person. After you got the Spirit-level staff this time, can you ask your father for a whole set of Spirit-level equipment?

Bafanglaicai was already waiting. Upon seeing their comments, he immediately went online to confront them: "Come on, you bunch of bastards who only know how to ambush, I'm waiting for you!!"

As he spoke, Bafanglaicai immediately summoned Lei Hu and Zhao Shanshan, the two henchmen, along with Sun Cairen (profession: Monster Hunter), Gray (profession: Berserker), Qiangxingwanglan (profession: Light Praiser), and Manzuizuifen (profession: Night Walker) in the [Peerless] guild channel.

In addition, Bafanglaicai expanded its bodyguard team, increasing the number of bodyguards from more than 20 to 50!

Afterwards, Bafanglaicai led these people back to the place where they had previously leveled up, quietly waiting for the people to "hunt".
