I told you to change your skills, and you changed them into a nuclear explosion immortal?

"The land forsaken by God?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun raised his eyebrows.

"Are there a lot of monsters there? And the loot is good too?"

"Your understanding is not wrong."

Qi Zhaolin paused.

"The monsters and loot there are at least orange-tier equipment, and the monsters are strong and plentiful. It's incredibly easy to level up, farm equipment, and get skill books there."

"Why do high-level equipment and skill books never leak out? And why do they rarely appear on the market? Firstly, the drops outside have almost been exhausted, and there are few experts. Secondly, it's because everyone's attention is focused on them."

"That place is paradise for professionals. Although it's several times more dangerous, the opportunities there are incomparable to any dungeons or secret realms outside."

"Those who grow up there are at least brilliant-level experts."

Qi Zhaolin felt that this matter was a bit complicated, and after organizing his thoughts, he said.

"To put it bluntly, the forbidden spells of the Ten Guardian Gods of the Dragon Kingdom were obtained from that place."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun's expression immediately hardened.

To put it bluntly, that place is incredibly powerful, the loot is amazing, and the skill book drop rate is high. If you can keep grinding monsters there, even a pig can fly.

Not to mention the top talents of the ten great families?

However, Lu Yun quickly thought of a problem.

"It may be a good place, but there must be other dangers too, right?"

"That's right."

Qi Zhaolin nodded.

"That's not just the backyard of the ten great families. Officials from our Dragon Kingdom, as well as officials and major powers from other countries, are also there. It's a huge place, so huge that it's boundless."

"So, open and covert struggles have always existed there."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun instantly understood what was going on.

"So the Dragon Office, or rather the Dragon Roar Group, plans to send me?"

"Yes."

Qi Zhaolin looked at Lu Yundao very seriously.

"However, I'm not sending you there to compete with them for monsters, but because the Path of the Hidden Gods is about to open."

Lu Yun was a little confused.

"The Path of Disappearance?"

and many more?

Lu Yun suddenly felt that the task list looked familiar, so he quickly opened it.

[Exclusive Quest: The Forbidden Path (Part Two)]

[Mission Objective: Proceed to the Path of the Hidden Gods and retrieve the Heart of the God of Bones!]

[Complete the task and you will receive generous rewards!]

good guy?

Could these two be from the same place?

Seeing Lu Yun staring blankly with wide eyes, Qi Zhaolin asked with some suspicion.

"Yes, the Path of the Hidden God is where that god once fell, but no one knows the specifics to this day."

"But what we do know is that the drop rate of the Path of the Gods resets every year when it opens, and the lowest drop is at least a Gold Myth-grade item."

"Everything you've seen, and everything you haven't seen, has fallen there."

Lu Yun's eyelids twitched, and his eyes lit up.

"So, that's where forbidden spells come from?"

"Yes and no."

Seeing Lu Yun's stunned expression, Qi Zhaolin smiled and said.

"Some of them were swiped from there, some weren't. It's a personal secret; nobody knows except them."

"However, I can tell you with certainty that at least half of the top guardians' forbidden spells in the seven countries of Ta, Hua, Cai, Heng, etc., were obtained from there."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun couldn't help but smile.

"Ah... as long as it appears, that's good."

For Lu Yun, the fact that it could drop would be a huge blessing, after all, he was the darling of Lady Luck, and this piece of equipment had fallen for him.

"And there's a secret hidden there, a secret that can transform you completely and give you a second metamorphosis."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yun's expression hardened, and he immediately became anxious.

For Qi Zhaolin to say something like that, the secret must be extraordinary.

"When are we leaving?"

Qi Zhaolin pondered for a moment.

"Tomorrow at the latest, but today is best, because the tickets are not automatically generated; you need to farm them by defeating monsters."

"Forget about tomorrow, let's go now."

Lu Yun seemed to remember something, paused for a moment, and then instantly realized the key issue.

"Wait a minute? So, how many people are there? How many tickets do we need?"

"The ten major families each have 20 people, the Dragon Office and the Dragon Roar Group each have 10 people, plus you, making a total of 41 people. That means you need to collect at least 21 tickets."

Sure enough.

I'm going to have to go back to work.

However, Lu Yun also understood that Qi Zhaolin's detailed explanation was simply because the ten major families were controlling the tickets too tightly, and the authorities were afraid of problems, which is why they started to intervene.

Compared to the act of cultivation, how can the official approach of searching for a needle in a haystack compare to the meticulous feeding of others?

"21 sheets... So how many sheets are there in total?"

"100 sheets, with professionals from 8 countries participating in total."

Lu Yun paused for a moment, then looked deeply at Qi Zhaolin before smiling.

"Ah... is that so..."

That old geezer is really wicked.

However, Lu Yun didn't care. Anyway, the place he was going to was most likely the same place as his exclusive mission, so he just went to take a look first.

If not, then let's talk about something else.

"Oh, by the way, can you take on promotion quests there?"

Qi Zhaolin was taken aback.

"You're getting promoted again?"

"With monster grinding and rewards, I'll be able to reach the sixth job advancement in about ten levels."

"..."

Qi Zhaolin opened his mouth.

In the end... he simply got up, left a single sentence, and stormed off in a huff.

"I'll be waiting for you outside!"

Watching Qi Zhaolin disappear from sight, Lu Yun shrugged his shoulders, then stood up and shouted.

"Qingmeng?! Qingmeng!"

"Huh?! They're here!"

Hearing a series of hurried footsteps, Xu Qingmeng, her face flushed, ran back.

"W-what's wrong?"

Seeing her like this, Lu Yun was overjoyed.

"Still shy?"

"It's all your fault!"

Xu Qingmeng nervously punched Lu Yun, then lowered her head, not daring to look at him.

The things her father said to her before he left were truly shameful.

Lu Yun chuckled and ruffled her hair.

"I've already enabled the affinity feature. Everyone can interact with NPCs or complete quests to gain their affinity."

"In that case, not only can faction points be used to exchange for items, but also favorability points."

"Tell Wen Liangyu to hurry up and build hotels, guest rooms, and boutique guesthouses. There will be a lot of people coming to Dream City these days. Don't let them disturb the lives of the elves and mermaids too much. Although they are NPCs, they are here to help. Don't treat them differently."

Since he got the Golden Holy Dragon Baby, his backpack has unlimited slots. He no longer worries about where to put his junk, and he has plenty of money.

This is a good opportunity to use it as a perk to boost the popularity of Dream City.

Upon hearing this, Xu Qingmeng paused for a moment before suddenly raising her head and speaking.

"You...you're leaving again?"

Lu Yun nodded.

"Yes, something's come up, I have to leave immediately."

A hint of disappointment flashed in Xu Qingmeng's eyes, but she quickly nodded seriously.

"Okay, go ahead and do your thing. We'll take care of things in the city."

Lu Yun smiled indulgently, pulled her into his arms, and hugged her.

"I'll find a chance to spend time with you after I'm done with my work."

"Okay... I'll wait for you..."

Xu Qingmeng gently nuzzled Lu Yun's chest. Although she was reluctant, she knew she couldn't stop Lu Yun from going.

He needs to become stronger, and he must become very strong, because only in this way can he, without any background, survive in this dog-eat-dog world.

After hugging her for a long time, Lu Yun gently patted her back and said softly.

"Okay, I'm leaving."

Reluctantly letting go of Xu Qingmeng, Lu Yun smiled, summoned Starlight, and jumped onto it.

"Qingmeng, wait for me. After I finish these two things, we'll go to your house for our engagement banquet!"

"you?!!!"

Xu Qingmeng's face flushed red all the way to the roots of her neck.

But watching Lu Yun's disappearing figure, she couldn't help but laugh again.

Although she was shy, wasn't this exactly what she wanted...?
