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

The third server-wide announcement!

[Server-wide Announcement!!!]

[Congratulations to Starshine City for becoming the first city to defeat the boss of the class-change dungeon!]

[To celebrate, we are now announcing citywide rewards!]

[All players in Starshine City have had their levels increased by 1!]

[For the next 24 hours, experience gain rate +10%, gold gain rate +10%, and the drop rate from killing corpses doubles!]

[Achieve the server-wide unique achievement "Starlight"!]

The achievement title "Starlight" has been awarded!

[Special thanks to: Taichu – the biggest contributor to Starshine City!]

The world channel has completely gone mad.

"Three...three announcements?!"

"All players in the city level up by 1?! Drop rates doubled?!"

"The players in Starshine City are winning by doing absolutely nothing!"

"I'm so envious! Why am I not from Starshine City?!"

"Great Primordial God, please come to our city! We will erect a memorial tablet for you!"

"Hey upstairs, are you trying to set up a memorial tablet? You're just trying to get a free reward!"

"Hey buddy, you should open it!"

"..."

Not only the world channel, but the regional channels in Starshine City have also gone crazy.

[Regional Channel - Xinghui City]

"Holy crap!! Level +1??? I just got a free level???"

"Double drop rate??? 10% experience and gold??? Primordial God, you're my godfather!"

"I was just envious of the Primordial God, and now it's my turn! The Primordial God really didn't forget about us mere morsels even while enjoying the spoils!"

"Primordial God! From this day forward, I will follow you!"

"If you will not abandon me, I am willing to follow you to the death!"

"Star City is awesome! Primordial God is awesome!"

"Guardians! Guardians! Guardians!"

"..."

Shen Xi stood there, looking at the three announcements!

"Come to think of it, it's true. There's always a server-wide announcement for clearing the class advancement dungeon, being the first to kill the Silver-rank boss, the Corpse, or the first person to kill the class advancement dungeon boss!"

"I just didn't expect to take down three of them at once!"

Three server-wide announcements.

Three unique achievements.

Three titles.

Furthermore, all players in the city will level up by 1, and the drop rate will double...

He glanced at Mingying beside him.

Clearly, he also received a city-wide reward.

The level increases by 1 directly, but since the job hasn't been changed, it can only be stored.

Shen Xi took a deep breath and looked at the last reward message...

【Starlight】Title (Unique): When worn, grants +8% to all attributes within the Starlight City area. Active Skill "Starlight Blessing": Grants a blessing to any player within Starlight City, increasing their all attributes by +5% for 24 hours. Cooldown: 72 hours.

Shen Xi couldn't help but laugh.

This title is practically a divine symbol of Starshine City.

All attributes +8%, slightly lower than the 10% of the Three Realms Supreme, but with the blessing skill, it's definitely a standard configuration for a city lord.

That's not all. The three achievements granted three titles, and the achievement rewards were also distributed at the same time.

[Silver Buster] Achievement Rewards: Reputation +1000, Gold Coins +1000, Free Attribute Points +5, Storage Space +3 cubic meters.

[Class Change Pioneer] Achievement Rewards: Reputation +1000, Gold Coins +1000, Free Attribute Points +5, Storage Space +3 cubic meters.

【Starlight】Achievement Rewards: Reputation +2000, Gold Coins +2000, Free Attribute Points +10, Storage Space +5 cubic meters.

The three things together...

[Reputation: 18600], [Gold Coins: 10663], [Free Attribute Points: 20], [Storage Space: 40 cubic meters]

He put away the title and his gaze fell on the last two items...

Gold-grade Equipment Box x1

Gold-grade weapon case x1

as well as……

With a slight thought, he took out the two skill cards he had just acquired...

Bloodlust Berserk (Gold Level)

Death Cyclone (Gold Level)

This wave of profits has made them incredibly wealthy.

Shen Xi first opened the gold-grade equipment box.

The box was entirely gold, with dazzling runic light flowing across its surface.

He took a deep breath and lifted the lid of the box...

As the light faded, a menacingly designed leg guard lay quietly in the box.

The leg guards were entirely black, made of some unknown metal, and covered with fine, scale-like patterns. Three curved bone spikes were embedded at the knees, and there was a sharp blade on each side of the calf, gleaming with a chilling light.

【Name: Bone Blade Leggings】

[Type: Armor - Legs]

[Quality: Gold Level]

[Defense: 38-45]

【Special Effect 1: Bone Blade - Adds weapon damage when kicking, with a 30% chance to cause bleeding】

【Special Effect 2: Corpse Stomping - You can jump by stepping on rotting corpses, no cooldown】

[Special Effect 3: Resilience - Health +300]

[Description: Forged from a Gold-tier Lord's Bone Blade, wearing it will make your legs the most lethal weapons.]

Shen Xi's eyes lit up.

Gold-grade leg guards!

Three special effects, each one is practical!

Especially the corpse-stepping move, which has no cooldown and allows you to jump over obstacles, so you can roam freely among hordes of corpses as you please!

He immediately took off his original bone thorn leg guards and put on the bone blade leg guards.

A warm current surged into my legs, and I instantly felt several times lighter.

Let's look at the weapon case again...

"Bring out another big treasure for me!"

The moment it opened, a blinding golden light exploded!

Inside the box lay a massive battle axe, lying quietly.

"Ugh~ It's an axe again! It started with the fire axe, it's always axes!"

Shen Xi's love for axe-like weapons is waning these days.

The battle axe was entirely dark gold, its blade formed from a fusion of some kind of bone and metal, with crimson patterns flowing across its surface. A massive axe blade stood atop it, radiating a terrifying aura; its sharpness was enough to cut through steel, and a fist-sized blood-red gem was embedded in the back of the axe, its interior faintly glowing.

【Name: Desperate Reaper】

[Type: Weapon - Two-handed Battle Axe]

[Quality: Gold Level]

Attack: 58-68

【Special Effect 1: Armor Penetration - Ignores 25% of the target's defense】

【Special Effect 2: Tear - 40% chance to cause bleeding effect, lasting 10 seconds】

【Special Effect 3: Lifesteal - 15% of the damage dealt is converted into the user's health】

【Special Effect 4: Despair - There is a 10% chance to trigger the "Despair" effect when attacking, reducing all of the target's attributes by 10% for 5 seconds】

[Description: Forged from the bone blade and core of the Despair Reaper, it embodies the despair and madness of its former lord. Wield it, and you become despair itself.]

Shen Xi's breath caught in her throat for a moment.

Four special effects!

Attack cap of 58-68!

Armor piercing, tearing, blood draining, despair!

This is several levels better than the Bone-Corroding Battle Axe!

Without hesitation, he tossed the Corrupted Bone Battle Axe into his storage space and gripped the Despair Reaper tightly in both hands.

It felt slightly heavy in his hand, but the terrifying sense of power excited him.

At this point, his skill set has been completely updated...

Whirlwind Triple Slash (Silver)

Bloodlust Berserk (Gold)

Bloodthirsty Thrust (Silver)

Death Cyclone (Gold)

Two area-of-effect skills, one attack skill, and one enhancement skill.

perfect.

Shen Xi took a deep breath and opened her attribute panel...

[Task: None]

Shen Xi nodded in satisfaction.

This wave of gains was quite fruitful, but there are still two skill slots available.

He remembered that there were five initial skill slots from level 1 to 10, and then one more skill slot would be added every 10 levels. He now had 4 skills, and it seemed he would have to find an opportunity to add two more.

Shen Xi raised her head and looked into the distance.

Deep within the dungeon, the previously closed portal has opened, emitting a soft white light.

That's the exit to the outside.

Shen Xi turned to look at Ming Ying.

Mingying remained standing in the same spot, covered in wounds, but her deep eyes held a hint of weariness.

Indeed, in that battle just now, he withstood the Despair Reaper for so long and blocked so many attacks for him; it was already a miracle that he was still standing.

"Let's go," Shen Xi said. "My name should already be engraved on the Starshine City job change instance. Let's go out and rest first. Next, I'll change your job."

Mingying nodded slightly and followed behind him with unsteady steps.

The two walked one after the other toward the teleportation portal.

Behind him, the corpse of the Desperate Reaper lay in a pool of blood, slowly turning into wisps of smoke.

At the entrance to the instance, two words were slowly appearing on the pitch-black door...

"In the beginning".

The gold lettering gleamed against the black door.

This instance has already been conquered by that person.

The portal's light engulfed the two of them.

The next second, Shen Xi opened her eyes and found herself back at Xinghui Cultural Plaza.

Outside, it was already broad daylight.

Sunlight pierced through the clouds and shone on the square, dispelling the lingering chill of last night.

The square was now packed with people.

At least a hundred people.

Everyone was watching him.

The moment that silver-gray figure stepped out of the portal, the entire plaza fell into a deathly silence.

then……

"The Primordial God!"

"It's the Primordial God!"

"He's out! He really came out of the job advancement dungeon!"

"Holy crap! Those three announcements are real!"

The crowd erupted in cheers.

Some people were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes, some waved their arms wildly, and some even knelt on the ground and kowtowed in his direction.

Shen Xi glanced at those people.

There were level 8 or 9 players who had been observing from outside, some random players who had come from who-knows-where, and some familiar faces wearing city defense uniforms.

Everyone's eyes were filled with fervor.

Because they knew that the person in front of them had just secured a super benefit for them: +1 level for the entire city and double the drop rate.

Shen Xi ignored those gazes.

He simply raised his head and looked up at the sky.

The sunlight was blinding.

The apocalypse continues.

But at least for today, the players in Starshine City can have a better day.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Mingying.

"Let's go."

The two walked through the bustling crowd and left Star Plaza.

Behind him, the words "Primordial Beginning" still shone brightly on the pitch-black gate.
