### Summer Camp Zone C
After practicing for a few hours in the afternoon, Ye Bai and the others grabbed a quick dinner and continued their training.
Regarding the Wind Battle Mage, Feng Dong had once attempted this path and had a clear approach when guiding Ye Bai.
"Move quickly, minimize consumption, rhythm is key!"
"Different types of movement should be used flexibly, avoid rigidity!"
"Never let the enemy figure out your movement pattern, or you'll suffer greatly!"
"Damage mainly relies on short-chant wind spells, which can be supplemented with spell scrolls and mechanics."
"......"
During a late-night snack, Feng Dong enthusiastically introduced more to Ye Bai.
"When it comes to combat, I'll help you borrow two submachine guns from Senior Sister Zuo. You can run and shoot at the same time, and you'll definitely be the most dazzling guy on the field!"
That makes sense!
As a peculiar branch of wind magic, the Wind Battle Mage has always been a subject of research on how to maximize its potential.
Below the Battle General level, with scrolls and mechanical equipment, Wind Battle Mages can often unleash astonishing combat power!
"However, these external aids become less helpful once you reach the Battle General level."
Feng Dong sighed and explained,
"Take the Mechanic's equipment, for example. If you want more power, the size increases accordingly."
"We mages with our small arms and legs can't exactly lug around cannons in a fight!"
At this point, Feng Dong lowered his voice and whispered,
"I tried it once, and the recoil sent me flying. I broke seven ribs and had to lie down for half a night after recovering."
Ye Bai nodded, committing this information to memory.
The Wind Battle Mage sacrifices many external aids for the sake of extreme speed.
The entire combat style is stuck at a bottleneck—damage!
The further you go, the lower the damage of the Wind Battle Mage.
A flurry of moves might look fierce, but the damage is only 0.5.
With everything said and the snack almost finished, Feng Dong patted Ye Bai on the shoulder,
"Alright, Brother Bai. Get ready to continue your strategy for the Eternal Tower tonight."
"Don't forget the D-grade raw ore."
This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.
After parting ways with Feng Dong, Ye Bai returned to his single dorm room.
From next door came the sound of BBQ, likely Zhao Lin having a late-night snack.
Feeling a bit sorry for Zhao Lin.
Ye Bai didn't forget his main task,
"Master Jiu, do you remember that I have a mine at home?"
A black mist appeared before Ye Bai, and Shadow Nine emerged.
"The mining equipment has already reached Xue Meng. Remember to pick it up at the Wolf's Den. There's also a batch of dwarf craftsmen, Eternal NPCs. I've hired them for you, and the contract is with Xue Meng."
With Master Jiu handling things, Ye Bai felt at ease.
"If there's nothing else, don't keep calling me out!"
Ye Bai quickly stopped Shadow Nine,
"There's something important, Master Jiu."
"Ahem, I'm not sure about the grade of the ores. Can you lend me some raw ores, D-grade, C-grade, so I can get familiar with them?"
Ye Bai needed low-grade ores for this week's assessment. Otherwise, bringing out B-grade ores would be too conspicuous.
Shadow Nine snorted, "What do you take me for, Xue Meng?"
"Carefree also left a message on the board."
"Do you want C-grade or D-grade raw ore?"
"C-grade, D-grade is too poor."
"Is 30KG enough? If not, I'll go steal... I mean, get more."
A photo was exchanged for 30KG of C-grade raw ore.
After the transaction was completed, Ye Bai timed it perfectly, activated the Eternal Mark, and entered the Eternal Tower, leaving only a shadow behind.
Two photos floated up, and only then did Shadow Nine have the leisure to look at the messages from the two Supreme Beings.
"So this is what you wrote back then..."
The whispering voice gradually faded away.
...
"Welcome to Eternal Core City!"
As soon as Ye Bai logged in, he received his clearance reward.
"SSSS Rank clearance of the seventh floor, reward: [Wrath of the Frost]!"
A pair of epaulettes appeared before Ye Bai, with a blue base and black trim.
The epaulettes were adorned with hexagonal snowflakes, crystal clear.
Just looking at them made the temperature seem to drop significantly.
【

Advancements Completed: 0】
Looking at the attributes of [Wrath of the Frost], Ye Bai raised an eyebrow,
"Feels pretty average."
Nowadays, Ye Bai was accustomed to seeing all kinds of good equipment, and his standards were naturally high.
The various panels of [Wrath of the Frost] were quite ordinary, the shield it provided was better than nothing, and the effect of the Frost Domain was also quite average.
Just... a pretty standard S-rank equipment.
Besides being able to advance five times,
The biggest highlight of [Wrath of the Frost] might be its [Infinite Growth], allowing it to grow with Ye Bai's level.
After further advancement, the trait limits will also increase!
"After advancing five times, it might have a chance to become SS-rank equipment."
Stowing away the Wrath of the Frost, Ye Bai had no immediate plans to equip it.
Among all the basic attributes, agility was already Ye Bai's weakest.
Equipping [Wrath of the Frost] would further reduce agility by 50 points.
Making an already poor situation even worse.
Setting aside the equipment issue, Ye Bai headed directly to the Wolf's Den.
"The equipment and people are all here."
Two complete sets of large-scale mining equipment, and 50 dwarf craftsmen.
Ye Bai settled them in the Mysterious Mine, with specific tasks arranged by the miner leader.
With the help of the [Eye of Insight], Ye Bai easily mapped out the optimal mining route and the general layout of the mine.
The miner leader and others were astounded.
After handling these matters, Ye Bai returned to the Wolf's Den.
"Fourth Brother, the materials I promised you will need to be delayed for a few days."
Xue Meng apologized,
"I was about to head to the Abyssal Plane, but was urgently called back."
"Also, all counterattack plans on the front line have been canceled, and all leaves have been revoked..."
After briefly explaining the situation in the Abyssal Plane, Xue Meng said seriously,
"Although I don't know what's going to happen, it's clear something big is about to go down!"
Listening to Xue Meng, a name popped into Ye Bai's mind.
The Fourth Demon God!
"Are the Supreme Beings joining forces to severely wound the Fourth Demon God?"
"Or is it....."
A bolder idea emerged.
Severely wound?
That doesn't align with Ye Bai's impression of human Supreme Beings!
So far, the top-tier powerhouses Ye Bai had encountered shared a common trait besides being shameless:
Eliminate the root, leave no trace!
If they went to such great lengths only to severely wound the Fourth Demon God and let him return alive,
It would be a losing deal for the Supreme Beings!
"Anyway, I still have a few days left."
Ye Bai nodded, indicating he understood the situation.
For now, it's just the calm before the storm.
Taking out a map, Ye Bai glanced at it.
Eighth Floor: Monster leveling dungeon.
Ninth Floor: Second Job Change Secret Realm!
Ye Bai was now level 60, on the threshold of a second job change.
If he couldn't change jobs, his level couldn't increase.
"Today's goal, SSSS Rank clearance of the eighth and ninth floors!"
Ye Bai planned to clear both levels in one go.
Sometimes, without pushing himself, Ye Bai wouldn't know how strong Asura could be!
Summoning the Eternal Core Crystal, he placed his palm on it, allowing the white light to engulf him.
"Wish you an early clearance of the Eternal Tower."
