Chapter 55: Division of Temtes

Li Yao secretly stowed away the second Titan treasure item in his backpack. The killing of the thief and the acquisition of the loot made his heart flutter. He was eager to find a deserted ce to admire his new acquisition and contract with the Mechanical Firehawk.
However, the boss still needed to be defeated, and his health was already dwindling, less than twenty thousand.
The stunned giant spider was relentlessly attacked by Li Yao, leaving it severely battered and miserable. Each blow told a tragic tale.
Yes, that was the spectators’ most honest opinion of this boss creature. The sight was absolutely pitiful.
The creature designs in “The Ancient God World” were diabolical, and even themon creatures posed a great threat.
If yers weren’t skilled enough, they would have trouble defeating even elite creatures. Before achieving absolute equipment superiority, going head-to-head with elite creatures of the same or higher level was suicidal. Only strong yers banded together could struggle to get by.
As for the boss creatures, they were essentially the yers’ worst nightmares.
They had freakishly abnormal attributes, more skills than yers, and superior equipment. Some humanoid bosses even had high intelligence levels. All this made defeating bosses seem nearly impossible from the current yers’ perspective.
Countless yers were excited to encounter boss creatures but there were also countless yers who ended up being trampled by these bosses.
This grievance exploded when an open suggestion post was made a few days ago. Millions of yersined that the bosses were too hard and requested thepany to lower their difficulty.
However, thepany maintained its stance and exined that this was how the system had been designed, thus it was unchangeable. Noting the strong reactions of the yers, they further added that just like the creatures, yers could also be elites and bosses.
If one became an elite or a boss, their attributes wouldn’t be weakpared to the boss creatures.
Even though the exnation was vague, it stirred excitement among many yers.
Many yers quickly announced they had epted elite profession quests, but these were too difficult. Up until now, no one had trulypleted these quests, and many had even publicized them. This left everyone stunned and convinced that they couldn’t possiblyplete them.
Li Yao was well aware of this—the yers were bound to be quasi-gods in the next ten years, let alone bing elites or minor bosses. He had plenty of guides on elite quests in his mind, but since he started this game, he had been preupied with too many things. Once this instanced dungeon waspleted, he nned to undertake an elite quest.
The ranks were varied:mon, elite, silver elite, junior boss, intermediate boss, senior boss, great boss, racial chief, faction chief, world boss, demigod/quasi-god, god-level, etc. Each rank had a three-star rating, making it quiteplex.
It had taken Li Yao eight years of effort and sleep deprivation to be a quasi-god level yer. This showed how difficult the journey had been.
Also, the higher the rank, the harder it was to upgrade. For instance, it took over two times more experience for an elite yer to upgrade than amon yer, and defeatingmon creatures yielded less reward. In short, higher ranks had many limitations.
The higher the rank, the less reward yers would receive from defeating creatures of the same rank. This rule targeted the world bosses, and the higher the yers’ rank, the more monstrous the attributes of world bosses became—with the caveat that they could still be taken down in a one-on-one battle.
However, as for whether instances would be easier with higher ranks? Of course, they would, butter instances came with various difficulty levels. Naturally, elites would no longer be interested in instances of average difficulty.
The most direct manifestation was in mainline instances, which were ssified into normal and elite difficulties.
Instances of the elite difficulty yielded the same types of equipment as normal instances, but the equipment would carry an ‘Elite’ mark and have slightly better attributes than those produced by normal instances.
As Li Yao pondered these thoughts, he realized that this was mainly due to his excitement. After all, a Titan treasure is a type of auxiliary treasure.
He is now equipped with a Titan artifact, which in terms of rank, should put him at a three-starmon temte. Although equipping a second Titan artifact won’t raise his rank,pleting an elite profession quest and bing an elite with two pieces of Titan artifacts will make him a three-star elite temte.
This implies that he will be spared the excessively troublesome time associated with star-ranked quests—the difficulty of star-ranked quests makes it the most headache-inducing thing.
Because of his excitement, Li Yao almost made a mistake and was instantly killed by the spikes cast by the Ghost Hunting Spider. Fortunately, he quicklyposed himself, suppressed other thoughts, and focused solely on defeating the boss.
The subsequent process went smoothly. The rope bridge broke, and no one could interfere.
Eventually, with over a hundred “Break Position” attacks, Li Yao managed to bring down this despairing and suffocating boss.
“This is not the end, mortal. I’ll remember you. We’ll meet again.” The giant spider uttered with its final words as a shadowy image of a spider flew from its corpse and disappeared into the Void.
“So it holds a grudge if you kill it for the first time.” Li Yao watched the shadowy image disappear, muttering to himself. He shrugged it off, thinking he won’t encounter it anytime soon.
“Quick, quick, the rope, the rope, I want to loot the corpse.” Dumb Eye shouted.
“Okay, you go ahead and loot the corpse,” said Li Yao without any concern. In reality, he was no longer interested in this boss. He still remembered that the loot for this boss was not that impressive.
Li Yao fired a crossbow rope, connecting the two tforms.
Meanwhile, all the viewers of the live broadcast were silently waiting, even forgetting toment. The only things disyed on screen were the clinking sound of the coins and a shimmering gold light.
“Hurry, hurry, I can’t wait to see what dropped.”
Dumb Eye cleared her throat and confidently dashed to the side of the boss corpse to begin looting. Ghost Hunter Spider’s Web
Rank: Boss Level
Usage: Crafting Material
“What the heck is this?” Dumb Eye was at a loss for words.
“If no one wants it, give it to me. I need it for making traps.” Li Yao was delighted, not expecting to find this valuable item. It’s the best material for making pitfall traps, simr to the Poisonous Snake Trap, except that you need a special pitfall trap Skill Book.
In his view, except for growth equipment and some infuriatingly rare god-tier equipment, all the rest were transitional equipment.
However, these boss-grade materials were the most valuable. As more yers be elites, these materials will be needed to learn specific skills. Even after ten years of the game’s operation, their prices remained consistently higher than equipment.
It’s just that there weren’t enough bosses to go around at this stage, and yers didn’t have such insights.
“Next!” Li Yao imed the loot for himself, figuring he wouldn’t find the pitfall trap Skill Book anytime soon.

“Wow, finally something for me, but it’s a pity, sigh.” Dumb Eye transferred the item to Li Yao with a regretful expression.
“But this is equipment you can use, why don’t you want it?” Li Yao was puzzled.
“I didn’t contribute to defeating this boss. It’s okay to take advantage of you for a blue equipment, but for a purple one… if my sister-inw were to find out, she would beat me.” Dumb Eye showed a conflicted expression, then looked up at Li Yao with her twinkling eyes. She said, “Big brother, could you keep it for me for now? I will certainly find a purple equipment for you in exchange.”
“Alright, no problem..” Li Yao was indifferent and put the equipment into his backpack..
