From the beginning of January to the end of January, it seemed to be only a short period of time, and the waves passed without panic.

The list of winners of the upgrade event has been announced early. Although the specific rewards other than the golden apple are unknown, various rumors have already spread. Those who are more well-informed know that this reward should be a big deal.

Because of this, those new-generation bronze ranks who have been rewarded for upgrading activities, while continuing to level up, can't help but look forward to the upcoming Spring Festival.

As for Fang Jin, who single-handedly planned this event, he also used this time to continue to travel back and forth to the peripheral leveling of the Huangshan Demon Beast Belt. And by the end of January, the level was successfully upgraded to level 16.

Needless to say, the continuous improvement of attributes is mainly the strengthening of skills.

There are 3 skills that can be improved at level 16: Cross Slash, Baptism, and Blade of Light.

The first is the cross chop.

This cross-branch learning skill is not used very much at this stage, and it is not particularly practical compared to other skills of the Holy Swordsman. Adding it up to the level is mainly for the pre-position of the Holy Light Cross Slash later.

The focus is on the two major skills, Baptism and Blade of Light.

After mastering Baptism from level 10, level 16 can finally increase this skill to 3/3 of the maximum level.

The effect is enhanced as follows: The five basic attributes are increased by 20% and the duration is 60 seconds!

Compared to 10% at LV1, 20% at max level is considerable. As Fang Jin's level continued to increase and its attributes became higher, its effects became more and more significant.

What's more, the cooldown time has been shortened!

LV1 Baptism has a cooldown of 120 seconds, which is half the vacuum compared to the 60 second duration. At LV3, this cooldown is reduced to 80 seconds (-20 seconds per level)!

In other words, after the 60-second last, there is only a 20-second vacuum period, and the blessing can be immediately restored.

This huge increase is not a little bit.

As for the Blade of Light's enhancements, it's a bit mediocre, but it's also considerable: the additional magic damage per attack has been increased from 40 to 60, and the number of durations is +2.

In this way, Fang Jin's output has obviously been raised to a higher level again!

………

The long-lost escalation made Fang Jin less stressed when facing the clenching pursuers.

After all, the higher the level, the harder it is to level up, and the harder it is to maintain the level difference that was previously widened.

Fortunately, one day later is the first Spring Festival of the last days, as the most solemn festival in the Chinese tradition, even if other festivals in the last days can be ignored, the Spring Festival will still have to be passed.

After Liu Chang of the Logistics Department received Fang Jin's approval a week in advance, various preparations had already begun.

The survivors, who had been scared for more than half a year, finally got a chance to celebrate openly. Some ingenious female survivors received red paper, candles, thin bamboo sticks, paste and other items distributed by the Logistics Department and began to make red lanterns. As for firecrackers or something, they have basically been scrapped due to the weakening of gunpowder weapons. However, professionals can use the traditional "firecrackers" instead.

As early as the day before Chinese New Year's Eve, all preparations were basically completed.

Strings of red lanterns are hung all over the guild territory, and verdant cash trees sway in the wind, symbolizing beautiful meanings. Survivors with good calligraphy also spread out their stalls and wrote Spring Festival couplets for everyone. The actors who participated in the evening performance on Chinese New Year's Eve have also begun to step up rehearsals.

The people of the logistics department even got enough supplies and distributed a large amount of flour, animal meat and a small amount of seasoning to ensure that even ordinary survivors could eat a full meal of dumplings on Chinese New Year's Eve!

Even though the rest of the world outside is extremely dangerous, the busy guild territory shows a stronger flavor of the year than in the pre-apocalyptic civilization era.

At least for this moment, the members of the Guild of the Rescuers and the survivors who seek refuge under their command are happy.

Even, some of the optimistic members were able to look to the future.

They firmly believe that the Savior's Guild will become stronger and stronger with everyone's efforts and under the leadership of Fang Jin, and one day they will no longer be afraid of any Warcraft threat from the Twilight Plane!

This is unmatched in the whole of China, and even anywhere else in the world.

Not every professional force can ensure a sufficient supply of materials, let alone the absolute security brought by the guild territory. Even if some large survivor bases, Chinese New Year's Eve also symbolically added some supplies, but without that sense of security, they can't see the future, and the short-term joy will only remind them of the beauty of the old civilized era, and then it will become more and more cruel in the last days!

Finally, Chinese New Year's Eve came in a busy atmosphere of preparation and enthusiasm.

Ordinary survivors, naturally, have their territory to celebrate. And the professionals of the Rescuers Guild also started a dinner party in the small central square of the guild's territory.

It's quite hearty, four cool and eight hot, two flavors of dumplings with meat and vegetables, and a limited supply of alcohol and drinks!

Except for a group of bronze masters who were decided by lottery and were on duty on Chinese New Year's Eve, the other members were relieved to gather here. Leave aside your sorrow for a short time and enjoy the joy of the Spring Festival.

After more than a dozen performances that were not exquisite, but down-to-earth enough, the long-awaited upgrade commendation meeting began.

After Fang Jin made a simple statement himself, one by one the beautifully packaged gift boxes were brought up.

"Wang Youming, come to the stage to receive the award!"

A name that has long been well-known to everyone was the first to be called out by Fang Jin.

Suddenly, warm applause rang out. Wang Youming was so excited that he couldn't help himself, and trotted from below to the makeshift podium.

Wang Youming, a member of Group 3 of the Bronze Group. 57% at level 8 when participating in the upgrade event, and 15% at level 10 at the deadline two months later, ranking first. According to the original rules, you can get 1 golden apple! ”

After announcing the specific information, Fang Jin showed the gift box to the professionals present and handed it to Wang Youming's hand.

"Thank you, President! Thank you, President! ”

In front of everyone's eyes, Wang Youming's heart was beating wildly, and his head was a little empty for a while, and he didn't know what to say. could only stammer, then took the gift box from Fang Jin's hand and stumbled down.

The feeling of being watched by the envy of countless people is wonderful!

"Yingxi, come to the stage to receive the award!"

Another name, handed over from Fang Jin's mouth.

It's still a Golden Apple reward!

In addition to the top ten Golden Apple awards, subsequent members also received rewards such as guild contributions, random second-order equipment for their own classes, and consumables produced by various guild subclasses.

It may not be as valuable as the golden apple, but each one is absolutely practical, and it represents a kind of affirmation and honor!

After a commendation meeting, it not only successfully united the hearts of all professionals, but also impressed them deeply with Fang Jin, who personally distributed a large number of awards.

And with this opportunity, Fang Jin took the opportunity to announce that the guild is about to start the second wave of upgrade reward activities!

At this moment, the already warm atmosphere suddenly resembled a blazing volcano about to erupt.

Seeing this boiling atmosphere, Wei Gong only remembered one word in the crowd.

The Heart of the Army is available!
