I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 14 Arriving in the outskirts, a chaotic place.

Jiang Chen had done his homework; the monsters on the outskirts of Baiyun City were very strong.

Of course, the experience points gained from killing it are quite substantial.

These monsters can even drop loot; if they drop high-value equipment and materials, then you've really hit the jackpot.

However, now that he had seen the professional trading hall, Jiang Chen still wanted to go in and take a look.

After leveling up in the countryside, you'll definitely need to go to your class hall to sell the loot.

Of course, the professional exchange offers more than just trading functions. You can even accept certain tasks here.

Rows of trading machines are arranged in the hall, and most transactions can be completed on these machines.

Jiang Chen found an unused machine and pressed his fingerprint on the authentication screen.

Suddenly, the screen lit up with light.

"Imperial citizenship verification in progress..."

"Identity verification successful"

Name: Jiang Chen

Citizen Rating: 1 star

Contribution: 0

Only professionals can successfully use the trading machine; Jiang Chen's access level is only 1 star, the lowest level.

Different permissions grant access to different functions in the trading hall. To gain more functions and permissions, you must increase your contribution.

But given Jiang Chen's current abilities, these are all still too far off.

He glanced at the items in the trading hall; the variety was incredible, including weapons, equipment, and even materials.

However, the price is just...unbelievable.

This is not something an ordinary person can afford. Jiang Chen looked at his wallet, which was very meager.

I can't afford a single thing here.

Equipment levels are divided into Iron, Bronze, Silver, and Gold, from lowest to highest.

This is the level of access he can currently see. After all, he only has a few dozen gold coins in his pocket, which isn't even enough to buy the cheapest black iron-grade equipment.

However, Jiang Chen entered the trading hall to see what price the materials dropped in the suburbs could fetch. The monsters in the suburbs of the North Gate are all above level 10, but that's not absolute; some monsters have very wide roaming routes.

Since we're already in the Class Hall, let's check out the material quests.

Jiang Chen looked at them; they were all collected materials.

For example, collecting Crescent Grass: 20 plants form a team, and a pile costs 50 gold coins.

There are also moon rabbit fur, ancient animal bones, etc., and the quantity required is not small, but the remuneration is just so-so.

Many professions require these low-level, mid-level, and high-level materials to improve their skill proficiency.

On the one hand, these materials can help them improve their skills; on the other hand, they can also resell the processed goods.

As the quality of the products produced increases, the income will become more and more substantial.

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up slightly when he saw a task on the trading machine.

"Finally, something interesting..."

"Instance Quest: Clear the Jade Mine"

"Task Requirements: Defeat the boss King Goblin and obtain the Crystal Core (only dropped by bosses in Nightmare difficulty and above)."

Completion Reward: 100000 Gold Coins

The final reward for this mission was so tempting that Jiang Chen couldn't help but be tempted.

With 100,000 gold coins, this task is unlikely to be easy to complete.

Jiang Chen had learned about the location of the jade mine in his geography textbook; it was about 30 kilometers away from Baiyun City.

But he has no intention of going there to complete it right now. He is only level 7, and he needs to complete the Nightmare difficulty dungeon.

The dungeons are divided into three difficulty levels: Normal, Nightmare, and Hell. Nightmare is already much harder than Normal. Jiang Chen is willing but unable to do so. He can forget about it now; he needs at least a decent team to clear it.

After browsing around for a while, Jiang Chen arrived at the North Gate Exit Management Office.

The guards stationed at the city gate were expressionless, holding weapons and maintaining order.

Jiang Chen showed the administrator the authorization document proving his identity.

"student?"

The administrator frowned.

"Only level 7?"

Despite having many doubts, he let Jiang Chen pass since Jiang Chen had given his permission.

I had some doubts in my mind. Why would Baiyun No.1 Middle School send a student in the 7th grade to the suburbs?

That's too dangerous! "Freshman, although you have authorization to leave the city, you're only level 7 right now. I still need to remind you to be careful and not to be reckless!"

Jiang Chen felt a warmth in his heart; these guards were quite responsible.

"If you encounter a powerful enemy you can't defeat, quickly seek revenge; survival comes first!"

As he spoke, the guard patiently explained to Jiang Chen the habits and characteristics of some common monsters in the suburbs of Baiyun City.

"Thank you, I will be careful!"

Stepping onto the teleportation array leading out of the city, Jiang Chen appeared in the outskirts of the North Gate after a flash of white light.

The desolate and bleak scene before him immediately startled him.

Thinking about how I've lived in Baiyun City for 18 years, I can't help but feel emotional.

Fortunately, those powerful beings protected the human race, which is why the human race has a future.

Stopping thinking about anything else, Jiang Chen stepped into the wilderness.

The atmosphere around them became very oppressive, and he even saw a lot of blood flowing by the roadside.

In some dense forests, one can hear the roars of wild beasts, and even see many professionals gathering materials and leveling up by fighting monsters.

As he walked further and further away, the outline of Baiyun City behind him gradually disappeared from sight.

Start summoning skeleton warriors; one was summoned first.

Jiang Chen has now summoned a total of 28 skeleton warriors, but having just arrived in the outskirts, he wants to test the strength of the monsters first.

Soon, in the dense forest, they spotted a monster, and Jiang Chen investigated it.

Monster Name: Goblin Minion

Level: 10 Strength: 115

Agility: 51

"Spirit: 48"

Constitution: 110

This ugly-looking goblin is waving its big club and wandering around.

He has the highest strength attribute and a lot of health, so it would definitely take a lot of effort for an average professional to kill him.

However, the skeleton warriors that Jiang Chen summoned now all had a mental attribute of 750.

The goblin minions are no match for them in terms of strength; the monsters outside the north gate of Baiyun City are mainly goblins.

This place can be considered the territory of their entire tribe.

"Go, kill that monster!"

Jiang Chen gave instructions to the skeleton warriors.

The skeleton warrior brandished his axe, faithfully carrying out orders. He swiftly charged towards the goblin minions, who, seeing someone daring to challenge them, immediately confronted him.

He swung his large club and brought it down directly, but the skeleton warrior didn't dodge.

The 115 Strength attribute slightly affected the Skeleton Warrior.

But the skeleton warrior didn't wait for the goblin to continue attacking; he swung his axe down fiercely.
