Changing Life And Career? I Planted The World Tree At The Beginning

The Golden Age Alliance, consisting of a hundred people, successfully entered the snowy metropolis of the Stuart Empire by using the tokens obtained from Queen Heradik's hidden mission.

Their purpose for this journey was to meet the ruler of the metropolis, Count Kopazak, who was affiliated with the Tituarte Empire, and complete their own faction conversion.

Along the way, the candidates couldn't help but observe their surroundings frequently and cast detection spells.

"Level 160, Level 160, oh my, the elite monsters over there are actually Level 170!" one candidate exclaimed, "Even their equipment is not on the same level as the Horadric Kingdom's army!"

"And those city defense cannons, I bet even Level 200 monsters couldn't withstand a single hit!"

"What's so strange about that? Just outside the city in the military camp, I even saw a Level 180 bronze boss," another candidate sneered, "Look at you, a country bumpkin who hasn't seen the world!"

"Clearly, this is a high-level exam instance, how could there be monsters of such levels inside?" another candidate frowned, "If the Horadric Kingdom has such allies, then the Demon Dragon side probably does too."

"With our levels, even if we open the Book of Crests to page 20 and insert all the rare crests, it would probably be difficult to deal with them, right?"

"Who told you these monsters were prepared for the candidates? In my opinion, they're probably just some plot NPCs."

"That's right, don't worry too much. Our task is to earn points for the high-level exam, so we just need to kill the monsters within our capabilities," the leader of the Golden Age Alliance also spoke up.

"I believe that the greatest significance of joining a third-party faction lies in the greatly increased rewards for various tasks."

"The tasks on the Horadric Kingdom side, even the ones for obtaining rare crests, are very rare, and epic-level ones are even rarer. The situation on the Stuart Empire side is obviously much better."

"And, a powerful force can provide us with a stable rear area. If the frontlines become chaotic, we can go there without any worries to earn points."

"Alright, let's not waste any more time. Let's complete the faction tasks first. Everyone, let's go!"

...

After meeting Count Zakri and converting their faction, the Golden Age Alliance indeed discovered a large number of high-level faction tasks.

The tasks in the Stuart Empire were similar to those in the Horadric Kingdom, involving clearing monsters or killing bosses.

Even the task locations were on the Horadric Kingdom's map.

However, the rewards were far more generous than those in the Horadric Kingdom.

Overjoyed, the candidates of the Golden Age Alliance immediately accepted a large number of tasks and then left the snowy metropolis to return to the kingdom's map to kill monsters and complete tasks.

...

In the early morning, at the Solid Rock City Adventurer's Guild.

In the most luxurious room on the top floor, Chen Yu woke up from the soft bedding.

Due to killing a large number of monsters, he had too many blank crests in his hands.

These things would become invalid once they left the instance, so he could only squander them to the maximum extent within the instance.

After enjoying a luxurious breakfast with the little elves, Chen Yu opened the Book of Crests to activate the teleportation crests.

After the countdown finished, a white light flashed, and Chen Yu appeared on the ruins of the sixth main city of the Demon Dragon.

"Speak! Who are you!"

As soon as Chen Yu stood still, he heard an angry shout from nearby.

A general riding a tall and large horse, wearing armor, was pointing a huge sword at him not far away.

[Demon Dragon City's first army commander, Level 150 boss]

Chen Yu looked around and found himself surrounded by thousands of soldiers.

The streets and alleys of the sixth main city of the Demon Dragon were filled with heavily armored cavalry.

Yesterday, he had already cleared out the entire sixth main city.

These troops were probably sent from the Demon Dragon's last main city, Demon Dragon City, after they discovered that the six main cities had lost contact.

Most likely, they came to investigate the situation.

Chen Yu didn't hesitate and directly summoned all the plant life.

The heavy cavalry are all Level 150 small monsters, with an average main attribute value of around 700 points. The Level 150 normal bosses have a main attribute value of around 7000 points.

Four Abyss Thorn Spirits besieged the boss, while the rest of the plant life rushed into the group of small monsters and killed them indiscriminately.

Before long, this army was completely wiped out.

After tidying up the spoils, Chen Yu immediately rushed to Demon Dragon City without stopping.

Since Demon Dragon City has already discovered that other main cities have lost contact, they will definitely send people out to investigate continuously.

For every group of people sent out, Chen Yu will lose a portion of his college entrance exam points.

Therefore, time must be seized.

Under extreme speed, Chen Yu only took less than two hours to reach Demon Dragon City, which was already in sight.

In terms of size and appearance, Demon Dragon City is not much different from the other six main cities.

However, the quality of the monsters is far superior to the other six main cities.

In the military camp outside Demon Dragon City, there are only Level 150 monsters, including many elite monsters, and even bosses appear in groups.

Beside the towering city walls stands a large black creature.

Its body is like an enlarged lizard, with a pair of forward-facing horns on its head.

It looks like a giant dragon from Western legends, but seems to be missing something.

At the foot of the Demon Dragon stands a human woman.

She is wearing a white dress similar to a wedding gown, with a golden crown on her head.

Chen Yu used the detection spell on the dragon and the woman.

[Demon Dragon, Level 150 Bronze Boss]

[Explanation: A demonized (non-Abyssal) sub-dragon, the ultimate boss of the Demon Dragon faction]

[Princess Delia, Level 100 Boss]

[Explanation: The heir of the Horadric Kingdom, kidnapped by the Demon Dragon]

"Wow, if I hadn't gotten the hidden clue, I would have believed it." Chen Yu couldn't help but mutter.

These two explanations are clearly meant to mislead the examinees.

The ultimate boss of the Demon Dragon faction should clearly be Princess Delia.

Although her strength is very weak, there is no doubt that she is the true controller of the Demon Dragon faction.

The so-called Demon Dragon is just a lackey.

"Houtu, it's up to you!"

Chen Yu released six original Elves from the Holy Soil space, and then said to Houtu.

The strength of Demon Dragon City is dozens of times stronger than his plant life legion.

The Level 150 elite monsters are already stronger than the Level 50 epic ones.

The Level 150 bosses are even stronger than individual demonized Thorn Spirits.

If they rely on the plant life legion to charge head-on, it is likely that all the plant life will die and not cause much damage to the other side.

However, it is customary to use Mythical Level forbidden spells when epic and legendary levels cannot defeat the enemy.

"Don't worry, my lord. The sword in my hand will definitely clear the obstacles for you!"

Houtu flew up skillfully and began to chant the spell.
