Chapter 1 The Most Coveted Item

In the Eternal City, the most coveted item was undoubtedly the Molagge Snowmelt Winter Short Sword dropped by the five lords. This was an Epic item with explosive attack power, even surpassing some Epic two-handed greatswords. It was a favorite among thieves and shield warriors.

There were only three Snowmelt Winters, each with different attributes. Once all three Snowmelt Winters were dropped, they would no longer appear.

As for the other item, it was the remaining Legendary Fragment grade Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor. Its rarity was even greater than the Snowmelt Winter.

Because it was unique!

Since it was only a Legendary Fragment, the attributes of this item were naturally much worse than Epic-grade equipment. Only by collecting all the fragments could its original, incomparably powerful attributes be restored.

However, in his previous life, a very long time passed, and players never dropped the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor, gradually forgetting about this Legendary Fragment.

He didn't expect to get the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor on their first exploration.

Everyone shared the attributes of the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor in the guild chat.

Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor (Fragment): Requires Agility 290, Strength 360.

Item Description: Requires Strength 130.

Item Description: The Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor has been broken and needs to be repaired, but it still possesses powerful magic. Solagge Obsidian: Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor, Solagge Obsidian Fine Feather Thread, Solagge Obsidian Magic Weave. You need to find the remaining fragments to restore its original appearance.

Attributes: Defense 370-386, Agility +20, Speed +20, Jump +10, Stealth +10, Hide +10, Reflex +10. Comes with Level 3 Obsidian Shield. Level 3 Obsidian Shield Effect: Resists 30% of damage taken, Durability 1200. Duration 3 minutes, skill cooldown 1 hour.

Restriction: Usable by all faction thieves.

Very high defense. The strength of this Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor was undeniable. The attached Obsidian Shield was also very good, better than some level 50 Dark Gold leather armor.

However, the strength attribute requirement made the thieves flinch. Perhaps only Nie Yan, this freak, could wear leather armor with such high requirements.

"Does anyone want this leather armor?" Nie Yan asked in the guild chat.

The thief team members shook their heads and sighed. Such high requirements, how could they wear it!

Nie Yan looked at Yi Chui Ding Qing next to him and asked, "Do you need it?"

Yi Chui Ding Qing was one of the guild's future main thieves. These members were the backbone of the Niu Ren Tribe. If they wanted equipment, Nie Yan, as the guild leader, would naturally give them priority. Anyway, Nie Yan could get even better equipment.

Yi Chui Ding Qing shook her head and said, "I'm training as an Agility Thief, and my strength is only over 80, all of which comes from equipment bonuses. I can't equip it at all."

Only 80 strength so far. Yi Chui Ding Qing was training as a full Agility Thief!

When a thief's agility reaches over 500, a portion of the agility is added to attack. When agility reaches 1000, the bonus is doubled. Many thieves like to train as Agility Thieves, but not many train as full Agility Thieves. Full Agility Thieves have high movement speed and attack speed, but their attack power can't keep up. Many people give up halfway through training as full Agility Thieves and have to add some strength.

If Yi Chui Ding Qing's level and equipment can keep up and her agility rises to 500, she will have achieved something. If her agility reaches over 1000, then she will have finally made it.

Several main members flinched at the requirements for the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor. Only Nie Yan exceeded the requirements by far. He could wear the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor now.

"Then I'll take it," Nie Yan said. When he didn't need it anymore, he would take it off and throw it into the guild warehouse. By then, the attributes of the other players would be about right.

Nie Yan replaced his current armor with the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor and looked at his own attributes, which had increased a lot. The Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor emitted a pure black luster, like a black gem, mysterious and strange.

Looking at the other two pieces of equipment, both were good Dark Gold items. Two members took them away with around 20,000 contribution points.

Calculating the value of the Solagge Obsidian Leather Armor, Nie Yan distributed more than 500 guild contribution points to each member, making them very happy.

Nie Yan was not stingy at all when distributing guild contribution points, which made people trust him.

In addition, the players' experience points also increased a lot. Each of them received at least about 80% of their current level's experience, so many of them leveled up. It was a very rewarding experience.

In addition to the three pieces of equipment, Nie Yan collected the fifth Energy Key Fragment.

The five Energy Key Fragments were placed in the backpack and fused together, emitting a dazzling light. They slowly merged together, turning into a white Energy Key.

Eternal City Energy Key: Special Item.

"Boss, what's this thing for?"

"The official website says it can open the Eternal Gate. What is the Eternal Gate?"

Nie Yan didn't explain and said, "Let's go ahead and take a look."

Nie Yan walked towards the central square of the Eternal City. The obelisk that stood there emitted a faint white light, standing majestically. It was covered with murals related to the goblin race, telling the story of the rise and fall of the goblin race, until only this city remained, standing here, eternally in the long history. Thus, it was called the Eternal City.

The crowd followed behind Nie Yan, looking down. The bricks on the ground of the square were already cracked, like turtle shells, spreading out in a strange way.

Passing through the ancient square, the crowd arrived at the foot of the obelisk.

At the foot of the obelisk was an ancient iron gate. The thick iron gate was already rusty, covered with mottled traces, like flowers, spread across the iron gate. Even the strongest force could not push the iron gate open.

In the center of the iron gate was a keyhole. The precise metal components around the keyhole were interlocked, giving people a dazzling feeling.

Nie Yan took out the Energy Key.

"Is this the Eternal Gate?"

"It doesn't look like much. It is said that opening the Eternal Gate will get you the energy core of the Eternal City."

"What is the energy core used for?"

"Who knows? It seems to be related to the guild fortress."

The members were discussing.

Nie Yan turned to the members and said, "You guys stay outside first. I'll be out in a moment."

There were no monsters inside the Eternal Gate, so Nie Yan could enter with confidence. He took out the Energy Key from his backpack and slowly inserted it. Powerful energy streams shot out from the keyhole, scattering in all directions, disappearing into the air.

The key was fully inserted. A dazzling light flowed on the iron gate, and the rusty iron gate suddenly became smooth and new, emitting a dazzling light.

Nie Yan slowly pushed the door open and entered. Inside was a dark space.

"If there's any problem, run quickly," Brilliant Knife Light said. He was still a little worried.

"Don't worry, there won't be any problems," Nie Yan said. There were no monsters inside at all, so there was nothing to worry about.

The surroundings were empty and silent. Nie Yan walked towards the dark space. All around was darkness. This was an endless space. In the middle stood a stone platform one yard high, with a metal basin on it. Drops of light green water dripped from above, dripping into the basin.

The entire basin was filled with green liquid.

Nie Yan looked into the basin and saw an egg-sized energy stone at the bottom, oval in shape, and emerald green throughout.

This was the energy core he was looking for!

With this energy core, and a few NPC enchanters, he could build an enchantment for the fortress that could defend against high-level magic within level five. It would be enough before level 150. In his previous life, when Nie Yan went to assassinate Cao Xu, only two mages had learned level six high-level magic.

The role of the enchantment was very large. It could prevent the mages outside from bombarding the fortress with magic, but the mages inside could attack the outside. However, players could freely enter and exit the enchantment.

Just the ability to resist magic alone made this energy core invaluable.

Nie Yan reached into the basin and took out the energy core. The moment Nie Yan took out the energy core, the green water in the basin suddenly became crystal clear, as if something in the water had been sucked dry by the energy core.

Nie Yan looked at the attributes of the energy core.

Elementary Energy Core: Can generate 1 trillion Lun of energy per day, with a maximum accumulation of 50 trillion Lun.

Lun is a goblin energy unit, which represents a certain energy intensity. The energy released by a level one high-level magic is about 0.1 trillion Lun. Therefore, if a fortress establishes an energy enchantment and the accumulated energy reaches its maximum value, it will take at least five hundred level one high-level magic to break it!

It will take at least ten more natural days to generate a second elementary energy core. Let the members come here to retrieve it after ten days, Nie Yan thought. He would not come a second time.

Nie Yan took the elementary energy core and came out. Brilliant Knife Light and others greeted him.

"How was it? Did you get it?" Brilliant Knife Light asked. They had searched the official website for the role of the energy core, so they knew the importance of the energy core.

"Got it," Nie Yan nodded. This trip to the Eternal City was really worth it.

"What do we do next?" Brilliant Knife Light asked.

"Let them go back first. Let's go outside the Eternal City and level up for a while," Nie Yan said. It wouldn't be very cost-effective to have so many people leveling up outside the Eternal City together.

Just then, Nie Yan's voice channel rang. It was Guo Huai.

"Nie Yan, I heard that there are level 40 golden earth dragons appearing in the Sin Domain Canyon east of Caroll City. Someone checked the official website. It is said that the golden earth dragons drop Earth Dragon Horns, which can summon golden earth dragons. The Triumphant Empire, Holy Light Flame, Holy Roman Empire, and Garan Temple have all been dispatched. Should we go?" Guo Huai asked.

Golden earth dragons, those are rare Super grade Summoned Creatures!

"Go, why not go? Our Niu Ren Tribe will also join in the fun!"
