Survival in the Apocalypse: Max Level Drop Rate with Abundant Resources

Weapon 2800, Helmet 2000, Shoulder Armor 1900, Chest Armor 2500, Belt 1600, Leggings 1800, Boots 1700, Cloak 1500, Necklace 2000, Earrings 1600, Ring 2100, Bracelet 2000...

Total: 23500 gold coins!

Shen Xi took a deep breath and decided to buy them all.

With a flash of golden light, twelve pieces of silver-grade equipment fell like rain, piling up in front of Mingying.

Mingying looked at the pile of equipment, a look of confusion in her eyes.

"Put it on." Shen Xi didn't want to waste words, because he was in a bad mood due to spending too much money.

Mingying began putting on the clothes one by one without saying a word.

With his two-meter-tall frame and this suit of equipment, he instantly transformed into a completely different person...

The Bone Nightmare Helmet covered most of his face, revealing only his deep, eerie eyes; the barbs on his bone-spiked shoulder armor trembled slightly with his movements; the skeletal breastplate clung to his chest, the rib-like patterns clearly visible; a white bone belt cinched his waist; bone armor leggings covered his legs; Bone Nightmare boots encased his feet; a cloak of the undead fluttered gently behind him; his hands gripped a pair of brand-new bone blades, the blades shimmering with a faint, eerie light.

At this moment, Mingying stood there, like a skeleton Asura crawling out of hell.

Shen Xi nodded in satisfaction.

This momentum is more than ten times stronger than before.

This was the only time he felt the money was well spent.

Next are skills.

Mingying's current skills: Resentment Burst (Legendary) and Resentment Slash (Bronze).

Legendary skills don't need to be changed, but Resentment Slash should be replaced.

Shen Xi rummaged through the skill area for a moment, then selected one...

[Resentment Slash (Silver Tier)]: Unleashes two consecutive resentment-infused sword strikes. The first strike deals 150% damage, and the second deals 200% damage. If the first strike hits, the second strike is guaranteed to hit. Cooldown: 18 seconds. Price: 2800 Gold.

It's much stronger than the 150% single-shot damage of the Bronze-level weapon, and it's a two-hit combo; if the first hits, the second hit is guaranteed to hit, making it extremely practical.

Shen Xi bought it directly and gave it to Ming Ying.

Mingying took the skill card, and with a slight thought, the card turned into particles of light and disappeared into her palm.

At this point, Mingying's skill set is: Resentment Burst (Legendary) and Resentment Combo (Silver).

Shen Xi looked at her gold coin balance: 40139-23500-2800=11663.

"There's still 11,000 left. Thankfully, I haven't exceeded the limit."

He breathed a sigh of relief.

This purchase cost over 40,000 gold coins.

But the effect was immediate... his and Mingying's combat power at least doubled.

Especially Mingying, who went from a naked level 10 player to a killing machine in full silver armor. Now, if he were to encounter an attack like the one in the deathmatch arena, he could easily kill his way in and out of 137 opponents, let alone 37.

"Next..."

Shen Xi raised her head, her gaze falling on the deepest part of the store.

There, golden light had begun to shimmer.

But Shen Xi didn't rush in.

He first looked at the pile of light screens, then spent 1000 gold coins to buy a dozen or so consumables such as Molotov cocktails, Eye of the Watcher, and Corpse-luring grenades, and stuffed them into his storage space.

Then, he took a deep breath.

"Mingying, guard the gate."

Mingying nodded silently, turned and walked out of the store. A two-meter-tall skeletal figure stood outside the door, like a guardian deity.

Shen Xi stepped forward, walking towards the golden light.

The next second, golden light exploded.

[Buzz...! ...

[The Domination System has intervened!]

[Host detected entering the game store...]

[The hidden shopping channel in the Star Shop will be forcibly activated!]

A familiar black vortex appeared before my eyes, with golden runes swirling wildly around its edges.

Shen Xi stepped in without hesitation.

The scene before my eyes changed in an instant.

In the confined space, three orbs of light floated silently.

The first one, silver-white, with the silhouette of a uniform swirling within it—Starry Rhythm Uniform, already purchased.

The second one, pale gold, with countless runes flowing inside—the Starshine World Badge, priced at 30000 gold coins.

The third one is dark black, with a hazy mist covering its surface—Starlight Watcher's Mark, priced at 10000 gold coins.

Shen Xi's gaze fell on the two light orbs that she hadn't bought.

Starry Sky Badge, 30000 Gold Coins.

Star Guardian Mark, 10000 Gold Coins.

He glanced at his balance: 10663 gold coins.

I can afford the Guardian's Mark, but I can't afford the World's Glory Badge.

Then there's no other choice.

"Starlight Guardian Mark".

Purchase successful!

[Deducted Gold Coins: 10000]

[Remaining Gold Coins: 663]

The dark orb of light fell into his palm, and the Starlight Guardian Mark was obtained.

The mark was emitting a dim light.

As Shen Xi activated it, the Starlight Guardian Mark seemed to come alive, slowly flowing at his fingertips.

"I spent 1 gold coins on a mark, I don't even know if it was worth it!"

Shen Xi smiled wryly.

Anyway, I've already bought it, so I'll check the attributes first.

【Starlight Guardian Mark (Diamond-level Special Item)】

[Status: Not attached]

【Effect 1. Starlight Repair: After application, restores 1% durability of all host equipment per hour (prioritizing equipment with the lowest durability)】

【Effect 2. Starlight Intimidation: After application, as long as the host is within the Starlight City area, all attributes will automatically decrease by 10% if the total sum of all attributes does not exceed that of the host's enemy player. This effect cannot be exempted or dispelled, and stacks with similar effects of Starlight Rhythm Uniform.】

[Effect 3. Starlight Summoning: After attaching, it can summon stars to descend and assist in battle. Each summoning lasts for 10 minutes, and the attack power of the stars varies according to the host's attack attribute. Limited to once per day.]

[Note: You are formed from the will of Starshine City; you will truly become the master of this city.]

Shen Xi's pupils contracted slightly.

These three effects are much better than I expected!

Star Power Repair, needless to say, simply restores the durability of your equipment.

The combined effect of Starlight Intimidation and Starlight Rhythm Uniform's Starlight Pressure reduces all attributes by a full 20% for any hostile player, which is simply outrageous.

As for Star Summoning, it summons a 10-minute-long shower of stars that align with the user's attributes, making it a genuine area-of-effect attack.

With the title of "Supreme Ruler of the Three Realms," which increases all his attributes by 10%, he can now confidently declare that he is now the god of Starshine City.

He raised his hand and pressed the Starshine Watch Mark against his chest. Since it was something from a hidden shop in Starshine City, he simply attached it to the Starshine Rhythm Uniform.

The Starlight Rhythm uniform lit up instantly!

A silvery-gray light surged forth like a tide, enveloping the entire uniform. The shimmering starlight that had been drifting among the hem suddenly began to pulse violently, as if sensing something, and rushed frantically toward the mark!

The mark slowly blended into the uniform.

One centimeter.

Two centimeters.

Three centimeters.

With each addition, the light on the uniform grew brighter. The starlight transformed from soft to intense, from sparse to dense, eventually forming flowing rivers of light on the uniform's surface!

Shen Xi looked down at all of this, her eyes flashing with amazement.

The original Starlight Rhythm uniform was made of silver-gray fabric with faint starlight flowing through it, hazy and soft.

But now, those starlight points are changing.

They became brighter, denser, and flowed faster. Each river of light was like a real galaxy, flowing slowly across the surface of the uniform, leaving behind fragments of starlight in its wake.

The most noticeable change is on the chest.

At the location where the mark was attached, a new pattern has now appeared.

It was a star chart the size of a fist, composed of countless tiny points of light, spiraling outwards. At the center of the star chart, an exceptionally bright star slowly rotated, and with each rotation, a halo of light spread outwards, creating ripples on the uniform.

The moment the last ray of light merged into the uniform...

[Attachment complete!]

This purchase didn't take too long; 10 minutes in the hidden shop was just enough.

When we came out, the sun had already set.

It's evening!

The main problem was that it took too long to buy equipment for the two of them.

After leaving the Starshine Shop, the dozens of players hadn't left yet. Looking at Shen Xi in her Starshine Rhythm uniform, everyone's eyes showed a strange light. However, when they saw Ming Ying behind Shen Xi, with her exaggerated silver-level equipment, a terrifying sense of oppression emanated from her, and everyone felt a deep sense of dread.

Shen Xi glanced down at the star map on her chest and couldn't help but complain.

"This outfit is definitely flashy."

Then he looked at the dozens of players in the stadium, and an evil idea suddenly came to mind.

He seemed to have a slight thought.

Star Summoning activated.

Instantly, the star map on his chest glowed brightly!

The gently flowing starlight suddenly burst forth, transforming into countless beams of light that shot skyward! The beams pierced through the stadium's dome, traversed the night sky, and shot straight into the heavens!

next second...

A shooting star streaked across the sky.

No, it's not one.

It is countless paths!

Countless meteors fell from the night sky, trailing long, bright tails, heading towards Shen Xi's location!

The entire Starshine City witnessed this scene.

On the city wall, the patrolling soldiers looked up in disbelief.

The players on the street stared at the sky in disbelief.

In the square, the players who hadn't left yet all looked up, their pupils reflecting the meteor shower.

The meteor is getting closer and closer.

It's getting brighter and brighter.

Finally, just before they were about to hit the ground, they suddenly stopped and hovered in mid-air.

Those were a few stars.

Behind these fallen stars, countless more are hurtling towards us.

Feeling the power emanating from the stars, Shen Xi was certain that the destructive power of each one was comparable to his full-force attack.

That's equivalent to him launching a full-force, continuous attack for ten minutes. The destructive power of that attack would be unbearable even for the person himself.

If I had this skill when I was in the Corpse Nest, the clearing speed would have been much faster.

With another thought, the Star Summoning vanished instantly, and the countless stars that filled the sky came and went even faster. In a flash, the stadium returned to its original state.

Looking at the dozens of players, Shen Xi gave a kind smile: "You guys continue, we'll be leaving now."

Shen Xi and Ming Ying walked out of the stadium one after the other.

Inside the stadium, the players remained standing, looking at them with awe.

Upon seeing Shen Xi approach, everyone lowered their heads in unison, not daring to look directly at her.

They all saw what just happened.

The sight of countless shooting stars falling from the sky, the sheer power of it, was something they would never forget.
