Lin Chen remembered that in the item exchange list, the cheapest piece of gold equipment happened to be worth 600 adventure points.

It was a pair of gold-quality combat boots, and he opened the item exchange list to find that the pair of combat boots had not been exchanged by other players at this moment.

So, Lin Chen emptied all the adventure points on his body and exchanged them for them-

Flame Boots (Quality: Gold)

Physical Defense: 135

Magical Defense: 130

Additional: Strength +30, Constitution +29

Special - Fire Protection - Increases Fire Resistance by 10.

Equipment level: 30

Description: With these boots, you may be able to survive in the lava for an extra second.

The main reason why these flame boots are the cheapest is that the main attribute of the equipment is slightly lower than the standard of the same level and quality, and the same part of the equipment.

But no matter how you say it, it is also gold quality equipment, which is more powerful than the main attribute of most silver equipment, and it also has an additional additional attribute.

For Lin Chen, it's worth it.

Lin Chen equipped the Flame Boots and the cursed armor he had obtained not long ago.

The replacement of the two pieces of defensive equipment made Lin Chen's defensive attributes, in the next moment, directly break through the level of 900 points-

A Thousand Years of Dreams (The Brave)

Class: High Swordsman (Starlight Swordsman)

Grade: 32

Health: 8196

Physical Attack: 720-758

Physical Defense: 949

Defense Against Magic: 901

Lucky point: 10

His defensive attribute is keeping up, but his offensive attribute is a bit of a laggard.

Although now with Xiao Hei's help, Lin Chen can not care much about his damage ability, but after all, pets are forbidden to compete in the challenge, and only he can rely on himself.

Therefore, in the next few days, before the start of the first stage of the challenge, Lin Chen needs to find a way to farm a weapon above level 30 to eliminate the Sword of Dawn in his hand.

Lin Chen felt tired, but before going offline, he glanced at the ranking of the Baiyun City region again.

He smiled, relying on Xiao Hei's strong output ability, he was almost able to squeeze into the top ten positions on the level list-

1st place, No Brake (High Mage), level 34

Second place, Fire Tree Silver Flower (High Mage), level 34

Third place, Seven Layers of Sayo (Advanced Mage), level 33

Fourth place, Soul Innocence (High Rank Warrior), level 33

Fifth place, Death Canoe (High Mage), level 33

Sixth place, A Touch of Sunshine (high-level shooter), level 33

Seventh place, Wandering Leaf (High Swordsman), level 33

Eighth place, that summer (High Mage), level 32

Ninth place, Blue Fantasy (High Swordsman), level 32

10th place, Floating Dream (High Mage), level 32

At this stage, mage leveling still has an unparalleled advantage, and four of the top five players on the leaderboard are mage professionals.

In first place, it is still Wusha from the Shadow Oath, he ran very decisively last time, and it should also be out of consideration to ensure the ranking of the level.

And the player with the ID of "sweet and sour pork ribs", because he enjoyed a death penalty in the red name state, his shadow disappeared on the first page of the level list, and he was ranked more than 20 miles away.

As for Lin Chen himself, he is now on the level list, ranking fifteenth, and he feels that tomorrow he will let Xiao Hei work a little harder, and it will not be difficult for him to rush into the top ten on the list.

Line.

Spend another day.

The next day, Lin Chen didn't go to continue the adventure task in the morning, but tried to run Baiyun City to see if he could receive any special tasks.

As a result, I received some errand tasks from ordinary NPCs, such as helping a blacksmith uncle to purchase a batch of iron ore, such as helping the aunt of the blacksmith uncle's family to send love poems to a bard.

However, running too many errands allowed Lin Chen to get a very valuable news.

Count Bruce, who lives in White Cloud City, is preparing to recruit a group of veteran adventurers to investigate in the Scarlet Cave, hoping to find the footprints of his cousin who was lost in the cave.

The reward of the task does not matter.

The most important thing is the publisher of the quest - Count Bruce, who is the highest-ranking nobleman who lives in Baiyun City, and there is no one.

He is a big man in Baiyun City, and he controls the power of almost all the city guards, even if he is the city lord of Baiyun City, he can only bow his head in front of the earl.

This task is an entry point for brushing up Earl Bruce's favorability.

If you can brush up on your friendship with Count Bruce, it will be of great help to Lin Chen's future development in Baiyun City.

Lin Chen studied the map of the mission and found that in the blood-colored cave, there were monsters of about level 38.

The attributes of the monster can definitely beat the current Lin Chen, but counting Xiao Hei, it is not a problem at all.

He found the Earl's mansion and told the earl's butler his intentions, but he was shut up.

Lin Chen was discriminated against by the housekeeper!

The damn old man thought that his strength was too weak, and they preferred to find some experienced high-level adventurers rather than adventurers like Lin Chen.

For the old man, there is no difference between an intermediate adventurer and a beginner adventurer.

Depend on!

Even if Lin Chen showed the title of brave, it would have no effect, and the old man was equally cynical.

If it weren't for the guards around him, and the old man's level was higher than Lin Chen's, Lin Chen really wanted to teach the old man a lesson.

Never mind.

Since I can't take on the task for the time being, there is no need to waste time here.

Lin Chen thought so.

He decided to brush up the adventure points first, and after upgrading the adventurer level to a high-level adventurer as soon as possible, he would try to see if he could take this task.

Just as Lin Chen was about to turn around, he suddenly saw a girl in red, just with a maid, leaving the earl's mansion.

This girl, he was a little familiar, and he recalled it a little, remembering that it was the girl Lena he had met when he was in Shining Gold Town before.

Lena has a special identity as the granddaughter of Earl Bruce.

Lin Chen felt that he could use the girl as a breakthrough to take over this task, so he followed the girl.

Soon, Lin Chen's actions made a team of NPC guards realize that they surrounded Lin Chen, suspecting that Lin Chen was going to be unfavorable to Lina.

"Please wait a minute."

The kind-hearted Lena noticed the movement behind her, immediately stopped the guard's rude behavior, and asked Lin Chen with a smile if there was anything she needed help with.

But before Lin Chen could answer, the girl's smile suddenly suffocated, and then she made a frightened sound.

"You're that psychopath!"
