I am the Arcane Archer, and all my skills are self-created.

The City That Never Falls, the City Lord's Mansion.

The grand celebration banquet has lasted for three days and three nights, and the entire Myth Guild is immersed in the joy of victory.

Lin Hai was extremely busy. He had to receive a constant stream of representatives from various guilds who came to curry favor, while also directing his subordinates to count the mountains of war reparations and spoils of war.

Immovable Mountain and Steel Shield, along with their respective teams, "swept" through District 21, carrying out the liquidation orders given by Hua Zitong.

Wherever they went, people either submitted or disbanded. The fame of the Myth Guild reached its peak at this moment.

As the creator of all this, Li Wu once again became a hands-off manager the day after the celebration banquet began.

He locked himself in the "secret document laboratory" that was specially built for him, ignoring everything from the outside world.

He didn't emerge from the lab until a week later.

"Boss, you're finally out of seclusion!"

As soon as I stepped outside, I ran into Chasing Wind, who had been waiting for me.

"Hmm." Li Wu nodded and asked, "How are things going outside?"

"Everything's settled!" Zhui Feng said excitedly. "The Iron Blood Alliance is completely finished, and those opportunists from Fengyun Zaiqi have all paid compensation and submitted."

"Right now, in the entire 21st district, our Mythical Guild is the only dominant force! Brother Lin Hai said that the compensation and supplies we've collected are enough for us to expand the City of Neverfall once more!"

"That's good." Li Wu wasn't surprised by this.

He walked to the terrace of the city lord's mansion, looking down at the bustling and prosperous city below, but his heart was not very stirred.

For him, unifying District 21 was just the beginning.

His gaze had already been set on a much more distant place.

"I'm going out for a bit to continue leveling up," Li Wu said.

"Huh? Boss, you're still leveling up?" Zhui Feng was taken aback. "You're already the strongest in this region, isn't that enough?"

"Not enough." Li Wu shook his head.

Although his current strength is terrifying, his level is still 100.

During his six months in the Arcane Wasteland, he focused on comprehending the runes, but his level did not increase.

He knew very well that level 100 was just a new starting point.

He needs to level up as soon as possible and then challenge those top experts from the old district who once doubted him.

He wanted to use his absolute strength to shut everyone up.

"Then... Boss, can I go with you?" Zhui Feng quickly said, "I'll be your eyes!"

"No need," Li Wu waved his hand.

After saying that, Li Wu didn't explain any further. He directly crushed a teleportation scroll and disappeared from the spot.

Zhui Feng looked at the spot where Li Wu had disappeared, scratched his head, feeling a little disappointed, but mostly filled with admiration and trust for Li Wu.

He knew that his boss was always at the forefront of everyone else.

……

A flash of light, and Li Wu appeared in the wilderness after reaching level 100.

But when he looked around, he was stunned.

"What happened? Where's the monster?"

Li Wu frowned and immediately activated Eagle Eye Technique, expanding the detection range to its maximum.

However, after scanning the entire area, not a single elite monster was found, nor even a regular wild monster.

"Could it be a system update that changed the monster spawn mechanism here?"

A hint of doubt arose in Li Wu's heart.

Without giving it much thought, he continued walking forward.

However, the result was still the same.

Something's not right.

Li Wu finally realized that the problem might be more serious than he had imagined.

He immediately opened the official forum to look for relevant update announcements.

However, as soon as he opened the forum, he was overwhelmed by a screen full of posts.

Shocking! After reaching level 100, there aren't a single monsters left in the wild?!

Help! Does anyone know where to level up after reaching level 100?

……

Looking at these posts filled with lamentations, Li Wu finally understood.

He wasn't the only one who encountered this situation; all players who reached level 100 faced the same predicament.

Without their knowledge, Origin Realm quietly underwent a major version update.

After level 100, the traditional way of leveling up by fighting monsters in the wild has become a thing of the past.

Li Wu frowned as he quickly browsed through the posts, trying to find answers from the players' discussions.

Soon, an analysis post published by "Knife Size," the chief analyst of the Eighth District, caught his attention.

The title of the post is: "Speculation and Verification on the New Upgrade Mode After Level 100".

Li Wu clicked on it and began to read it carefully.

The post provides a detailed analysis of the logic behind this version update.

He believes that the game developers removed wild monsters to free players from the monotonous "monster grinding" and guide them to experience more diverse and challenging game content.

Based on the various clues and data he collected, he speculated that after level 100, there are two main ways for players to level up.

Li Wu's gaze fell on the two words highlighted in red by the size of the knife.

His gaze gradually became serious.

"World Events" and "Abyssal Rifts".

Li Wu stared at the two words "knife size" in the post and fell into deep thought.

He immediately contacted Hua Zitong.

"Hey? What's wrong? You already miss me after we just left?"

On the other end of the communicator came Hua Zitong's voice, which carried a hint of teasing but couldn't hide her exhaustion.

"I've run into a bit of a problem," Li Wu said directly. "After level 100, there are no monsters in the wild anymore. I saw on the forum that it seems to be due to a version update, with two new ways to level up."

"Yes, that's right." Hua Zitong's voice immediately turned serious. "Wait a moment, I'll call a meeting with the core members right away, and we'll talk about it in person."

Half an hour later, in the top-floor conference room of the City Lord's Mansion in the City That Never Falls.

All the core members of the Myth Guild, including Li Wu, Hua Zitong, Lin Hai, Bu Dong Ru Shan, Gang Dun, and Zhui Feng, were present.

This is the first time since the establishment of the City of Never Falls that such a well-organized core meeting has been held.

A solemn expression appeared on everyone's face.

"As you all probably know," Hua Zitong said, standing in front of the magic sandbox, getting straight to the point, "the game has undergone a major version update. Level 100 is no longer the end, but a brand new beginning."

She reached out and gently tapped the sand table.

The sand table screen immediately switched from a map of District 21 to a more magnificent and complex star map.

"Based on the intelligence I've gathered and my analysis of the new version's content, there are two main ways to continue leveling up after level 100."

Hua Zitong's gaze swept over everyone present.

"The first approach is called 'world events'."

As she finished speaking, a huge, fiery phantom planet slowly emerged on the star map.

"The so-called world events refer to large-scale epic quests that are randomly triggered throughout the entire Origin Realm."

"These tasks are extremely large in scale and extremely difficult, often requiring top guilds from multiple servers to work together to complete them."

"Take this one in front of us, for example," Hua Zitong said, pointing to the burning planet.

"Its codename is 'The Corrupted Titan.' According to the system notification, it will descend upon the border between Zone 3 and Zone 4 in seventy-two hours."

"At that time, all players above level 100 on all servers will be able to travel to the challenge via the cross-server teleportation portal."

"Challenge a world-class boss?" The man as immovable as a mountain stared wide-eyed, his breathing becoming rapid. "The rewards must be incredibly generous, right?"

"Very generous." Hua Zitong nodded. "Successfully defeating a world boss not only grants a massive amount of experience points, but also has a chance to drop mythical-level equipment and materials."

"More importantly, the top three guilds in terms of contribution will receive 'world reputation,' which is crucial for our guild's future cross-server development."

Upon hearing about "mythical equipment" and "world reputation," everyone in the conference room became excited.

This was something they never dared to even dream of before.

"What are we waiting for? Boss, let's do it!" Steel Shield, the most impatient of them all, stood up immediately, his face full of fighting spirit. "Gather the brothers, let's go and slaughter that Titan!"

"Don't rush." ​​Hua Zitong raised her hand to gesture for him to sit down, but her expression did not relax.

"While the rewards from world events are tempting, the risks are equally enormous. We're not only facing powerful bosses, but also competitors from other servers."

"The Eternal Spear from District One, Flora, the Elemental Overlord from District Three, and the Blade Size from District Eight... these established top masters will definitely not let this opportunity slip by. It will surely be a fierce battle."

Hua Zitong's words instantly calmed the crowd, who had just been filled with excitement.

Although they reigned supreme in District 21, they were still somewhat unsure of themselves when facing those legendary figures.

"Then... what's the second way? What is it?" As the "brain" of the guild, Lin Hai was more concerned about the other possibility.
