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

White Tiger City, beneath the east city wall.

As soon as Jiang Yan arrived, he heard a system notification.

[Ding~ Congratulations on completing the City Lord's quest 'Protecting White Tiger City'. Please proceed to the City Lord's Mansion to claim your reward.]

"Is that all?" Jiang Yan looked at the city gate with some surprise, just in time to see Bafang Laicai, Hongyan Huoshui, Dijun, and Prague War God walking back side by side.

"Brother Jiang!" Bafang Laicai waved excitedly upon seeing him, "We've driven off the monster army!!"

Di Jun, however, looked expectant: "Brother Jiang, the mission is complete, which means the plan to fuse the evil slime with the teleportation array has failed. You and Bing Di... did you team up to kill the evil slime?"

"It was a stroke of luck." Jiang Yan recounted the events at the teleportation plaza, emphasizing that the ability to stop the invasion from Hell was largely thanks to Ice Emperor and his cooperation. As for his repeated resurrections, he naturally glossed over them.

"So the monster army retreated because you prevented the fusion of the [Gate of Death] and the teleportation array," the femme fatale laughed.

"Damn, I thought these monsters were afraid of me." Bafanglaicai was a little annoyed.

"That way, there will be far fewer rumors circulating online," the femme fatale said with a smile.

"Rumors?" Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow. "That bastard Wang Shao of Shengshi is stirring up trouble again?"

"He's always there," Prague War God sneered. "That's all the bastard can do."

"Speaking of which," the beautiful woman said, her bright eyes narrowing slightly, a hint of allure in her smile, "Jiang Taigong, what good stuff did that evil slime drop?"

"How can you get good stuff every time? All I got was a spirit-level shield," Jiang Yan laughed.

"What are the stats of the shield? Are you willing to part with it? We at [Red Beauty's Drunkenness] are offering a high price for it!" Red Beauty immediately said.

"I'll offer an astronomical price to buy it!" Di Jun retorted, not to be outdone.

Jiang Yan quickly waved his hand and said, "I have other uses for this shield, sorry."

"That would be a pity," Di Jun said with a smile.

"You're so happy even if you're not selling?" Bafang Laicai looked suspicious, then suddenly thought of a possibility: "Those dark gold BOSSes dropped several spirit-level equipment pieces, could it be that you...?"

"Hahaha, one of my brothers accidentally picked up a Spirit-level equipment, hahahaha..." Di Jun could no longer suppress his smile.

The beautiful woman sighed inwardly. Her people had only found two pieces of dark gold equipment. Although they were not as good as spirit-level equipment, they were better than nothing.

The Prague War God also found some good equipment, but it wasn't dropped by the legendary BOSS; it was dropped by other players.

"It's about time we left this place." Di Jun took out a [Return to Town Scroll] from his backpack.

Jiang Yan raised an eyebrow and subconsciously looked towards Bafanglaicai.

Bafanglaicai shook his head slightly and sent a private message to Jiang Yan: I heard that someone completed a general store quest, and after that, all general stores in the major cities can sell [Return Scrolls] for one gold coin each.

One gold coin per piece?

Looking at the private messages from Bafanglaicai, Jiang Yan felt terrible.

He previously bought 9999 [Return to Town Scrolls] from the dimensional merchant. How much did each scroll cost?

It seems to be 300 gold coins per piece.

Now, tell me, one gold coin per piece?

A price difference of three hundred times?!

Jiang Yan's lips twitched violently: "Interdimensional merchant, you bastard, how dare you rip me off like this! You just wait!!"

"Jiang Taigong, what's wrong?" The femme fatale also took out a [Return to City Scroll] and asked curiously when she saw Jiang Yan's gritted teeth expression.

Jiang Yan glanced at the [Return to Town Scroll] in her hand, which was worth one gold coin each, and forced a smile, saying, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about some unhappy people. President Hongyan, take care."

The femme fatale laughed as she tore the [Return to Town Scroll] to shreds, saying, "See you next time."

"Goodbye." After seeing them off, only Jiang Yan and Bafang Laicai remained at the city gate.

Suppressing his emotions, Jiang Yan initiated a transaction request with Bafang Cailai. Once the other party agreed, he placed the half of the snake skin that the Hydra King had dropped on it.

"Brother Jiang, what is this?" Bafanglaicai looked curiously at the half of the colorful snakeskin.

"This is something I obtained by chance; it contains spiritual substances and is extremely precious!" Jiang Yan said in a deep voice.

"Spiritual matter? What's that?" Bafanglaicai asked, his face full of confusion.

"I only have a vague understanding of the specifics, but I know that absorbing spiritual substances will greatly increase our combat power!" Jiang Yan pointed to the snakeskin and said, "The spiritual substance inside this snakeskin is [Seven-Colored Poisonous Veil]. You need to use flames to roast it, forcing out the poisonous veil, and then absorb it into your body. Remember to keep taking red pills during this process to maintain your life force!"

"This... why does it sound a bit like inhaling some kind of dirty stuff?" Bafang Laicai was a little flustered.

Jiang Yan laughed, "As long as you can successfully absorb the poisonous veil inside, every skill you use from now on will carry the poisonous veil! It will not only deal wind-type magic damage but also inflict poison damage over a large area!"

"Poisoning?" Bafanglaicai's eyes widened immediately. "Really?"

Immediately afterward, Bafanglaicai suddenly remembered Jiang Yan's skill and hurriedly asked, "I remember your previous skill didn't have Dragon's Might, but now... could it be that you absorbed spiritual matter?"

Jiang Yan nodded with a smile.

"Brother, thanks!" Bafang Laicai was overjoyed and hugged Jiang Yan tightly before taking out the [Return Scroll], tearing it up, and saying, "I'm going back to absorb... cough, absorb spiritual matter first. Contact me if anything comes up."

As soon as he finished speaking, the wealth from all directions vanished in a beam of white light.

Jiang Yan also took out a [Return to City Scroll]. Suddenly, he had a vague feeling that he was being watched, and subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Zhang Tianguo?

Jiang Yan smiled and waved to the sky before tearing up the [Return to Town Scroll].

A flash of white light, and Jiang Yan soared into the sky.

"Damn Jiang Taigong!!" High in the sky, Zhang Tianguo saw Jiang Yan waving at him and almost couldn't help but attack!

"Now that this matter is settled, we should be going," Li Wenzhang said. "Don't worry, I will find a suitable village or town for you to develop as soon as possible!"

"Then I'll leave it to you," Zhang Tianguo said through gritted teeth.

……

Return to Fuxi City.

Jiang Yan didn't linger and immediately logged off.

As darkness falls, the moon will rise higher and its light will neutralize the eclipse's light.

Before that... Jiang Yan opened his game inventory and took out a conch shell and an orange stone.

The spiritual substance contained within the conch shell is the "Wind of Return to Nothingness." According to Kui Niu, absorbing this spiritual substance can extend the range of his lightning-type skills. Although it's somewhat useless, it might have a surprising effect if paired with the skill "Thunder and Lightning."

The spiritual substance contained within the orange stone is the "Flame of the Setting Sun." Absorbing it will imbue one's skills with orange flames.

The burst damage of the orange flames is not high, but it has the advantage of accumulating power. As long as it keeps burning, the damage will increase. Jiang Yan personally tested it before and found that it could burn through his lightning shield with a shield value of 18600 after seven seconds. So the continuous damage is still quite considerable.

Jiang Yan's gaze darted back and forth between the two before finally settling on the orange stone.
