Chapter 269: Level 40! Breaking the 500 Threshold.
The newcomer was an elderly man dressed in a suit, his white hair meticulously groomed.
The old man exuded an air of gentlemanly elegance, his manners akin to those of nobility.
"Isn't that Funo, known as the 'Reaper's Scythe'? The Eden Guild actually sent him to live-stream?"
"That makes sense. After all, ordinary strongmen can't keep up with the speed of top-tier contestants!"
"True enough..."
Upon seeing this gentlemanly elder, many people began whispering among themselves.
Clearly, this gentleman had a significant reputation in Darklight City.
"Is this young man my employer?"
Funo's gentle eyes fell on Shou Jingyuan.
Shou Jingyuan nodded indifferently.
Although the man was old, he was only a few levels higher than himself.
In Shou Jingyuan's eyes, someone who had only reached level 75 at his age was a waste.
Seeing Shou Jingyuan's obvious disdain and disrespect,
Funo said nothing, merely smiling politely, "Well then, let's be off."
With that,
he led the way out.
Ke Long wanted to follow Shou Jingyuan,
but Shou Jingyuan didn't allow it.
After all, Ling Zhan was alone. If he brought a follower, people might criticize him.
Once Shou Jingyuan left,
everyone turned their attention back to the screen.
...
Inside the secret realm,
Ling Zhan moved swiftly, maintaining an incredibly high speed even in the rugged terrain.
At this moment, his level had risen from 35 to 37.
His basic attributes had surpassed the 400 threshold, approaching 500!
[Strength: 482; Wisdom: 482; Constitution: 482; Agility: 482] (without any equipment or item bonuses)
Typically, job changers focused on a single attribute.
Physical professions prioritized strength, followed by constitution and agility.
Magic professions prioritized wisdom, followed by agility.
Generally, the highest attribute for a level 40 job changer ranged from 100-150.
No doubt about it, that's quite low.
It's well known that
job changers initially gain few attribute points per level.
These points increase with higher levels.
Especially after level 60, they can gain dozens of points per level.
Some prodigies can gain over a hundred points!
These prodigies likely consumed some form of Eternal-grade elixir.
Like Ling Zhan, who consumed the 'All-Demon Boundary Breaking Pill,' an almost mythical god-tier elixir.
This drastically boosted his attribute gains per level.
Now,
his skyrocketing attributes left his body in a state of extreme tension.
At level 37, he had attributes far exceeding those of a level 60 strongman.
The 43rd floor was the Succubus Palace.
This wasn't surprising.
Some might wonder if succubi were considered demon professions.
They are.
However, demon professions were discovered during explorations of the four forbidden zones, particularly the demon nest.
High-level demon professions required inheriting the blood of corresponding high-level demons.
In contrast, low-level demon professions didn't require demon blood, only the transfer path from exploration.
In Western countries, succubus professions were often chosen by those too poor to afford tuition.
Even after choosing it, unless exceptionally talented, they usually ended up in certain industries.
But at least they wouldn't starve, having money and food.
Of course...
There were exceptions where some could achieve top-tier status with the succubus profession.
Some even reached the fourth turn at level 100 with it.
As Ling Zhan entered the pink, girlish palace,
the charming, scantily clad succubi gazed at him with infatuated eyes.
Seeing such a handsome young man and the high-quality blood energy within him,
they decided to keep him captive,
feeding on his essence and enjoying themselves daily.
However,
facing the swarming, seductive succubi, Ling Zhan showed no interest.
He even mercilessly destroyed them!
The main skill of succubi was mental manipulation.
Unfortunately...
Ling Zhan's 'All-Demon Eye' made him immune to such skills.
Even without it, his mental resistance was extremely high.
After all, attribute increases also boost resistance.
Higher wisdom enhances mental resistance.
Higher constitution boosts erosion resistance.
Higher agility increases slow resistance.
Higher strength enhances weakness resistance.
This is why attributes are so crucial.
The four attributes form the foundation of a strongman.
With his current wisdom, Ling Zhan's mental resistance was far beyond what these level 50 succubi could charm.
Amid the regretful and envious gazes of many male viewers,
Ling Zhan punched through hundreds of succubi in the palace.
"Sigh! What a waste!"
"Doesn't he know succubi can be enslaved?"
"Damn! So lucky to get a succubus mob floor! But wasted on such an idiot!"
"If slave traders saw him killing succubi, they'd have heart attacks!"
"..."
Countless men watched the succubi fall one by one on the screen.
They gnashed their teeth at Ling Zhan's actions!
Others would love to find a succubus mob floor!
Slave traders paid high prices for succubus slaves.
And here, succubus slaves were very popular among men.
Watching these heartbroken men,
Nine-Tailed Fox sneered, "A bunch of scum thinking with their lower halves!"
The contestants from other countries exchanged looks.
Though they maintained their composure,
they too felt regretful.
Many had planned to buy top-tier succubus slaves in the Holy Light Nation.
Yet Ling Zhan showed no interest and killed them all!
Inside the secret realm,
Ling Zhan added hundreds more to his tally.
His level finally reached 40!
His attribute panel broke the 500 threshold!
This is the power of the dungeon!
But only someone like Ling Zhan, with his low level, could achieve such results.
Higher levels wouldn't gain experience here.
Boom!!
At this moment,
the iron door to the 44th floor was casually punched open by Ling Zhan!
The power from the punch left the viewers in shock and fear!
Damn!
How did this non-specialist get even stronger!!?
