Chapter 11: Pyromaniac Staff
At this moment Lu Yang"s eyes were green as he enviously stared at the equipment on the ground. If the bison weren"t resp.a.w.ning around, he would have jumped immediately.
In the setting of , the equipment"s rank was divided into whiteboard, bronze, black iron, silver, gold, dark gold, epic and legend.
In general, ordinary monsters only drop whiteboards and bronze rank equipment. The common elite monsters drop bronze and black iron rank, boss cla.s.s monster black iron and silver rank, and the Golden Dragon belonged was a special boss of the novice village. It dropped the Pyromaniac Staff that Lu Yang was very much looking forward to.
After spending an hour cleaning up the surrounding monsters. Lu Yang jumped down the rope and quickly picked up the Pyromaniac Staff and other items that were lying on the ground, and returned to the mountain.

Attack: 4 - 8
Const.i.tution: +2
Intelligence: +10
Spell Damage: +24
Spell Critical Chance: +12
Spell Hit Chance: +12
Accessory Spell: Fire Wall
Looking at the Pyromaniac Staff"s property, Lu Yang couldn"t help but laughed, "I knew that my life would be very good when I was reborn."
Among all the equipment in the novice village, the equipment for other professions was either bronze or black iron rank. The highest among them was only silver rank, the only golden rank equipment was for the mage profession. The only problem was that its drop rate was less than one in a million. But a golden dragon had a higher chance of dropping it. Lu Yang did not think that he would be lucky to kill it and for it to drop the golden rank staff.

Type: Flame Spell
Consumption: 30 Mana
Duration: 30 seconds
Range: 30 yards (27.4m)
Description: Releases a 2*2 area Firewall at the target zone, inflicting 36 fire damage every time.
With this skill, Lu Yang believed that his levelling speed could definitely improve a lot. In excitement, Lu Yang quickly equipped it. Its spell damage immediately increased to 77.
Going outside the concave area of the valley, he found a place full of bison. Lu Yang held up his staff and pulled their agro towards him by firing a fireball at them. Once they gathered under him, he activated the firewall under their feet. At once, the damage dealt to the bison, "-71", appeared on top.
When AOE spell was released, if there are too many monsters, it will cause the spell damage to be scattered. In fact, the calculation formula of the spell in was not only basic skill damage + spell damage. But actually (basic skill damage * skill level + spell damage) * spell coefficient.
The spell coefficient was a floating value and it depended on the number of monsters damaged by the spell. If there was only one, the spell coefficient would be 1. When there are many more, the spell coefficient would be 0.6.
After he had activated the spell, Lu Yang opened his item storage and look at the other items that the golden dragon had dropped.
Hexagon Ring (Black Iron Rank)
Spell Damage: 2 - 5
Intelligence: +2
Equipment Level: 3
Unexpectedly, another mage equipment was dropped. It was just that Lu Yang"s level was not enough. Lu Yang equipped the Hexagon Ring and his spell damage increased by +3.
Lu Yang continued to look at the other equipment. Just as he looked down, his eyes widened up. He could not believe that he was lucky for the young dragon to drop a shield, it was also a silver rank item.
Young Dragon Battle Shield (Silver Rank)
Defense: 7 - 22
Strength: +2
Const.i.tution: +3
Block Value: +8
The sale price of shields in had always been high, especially in the early days. The major guilds" purchasing price of the shields even exceeded the price for the Pyromaniac Staff. This was due to the need of completing a high-grade dungeon. For this, the main tank must be equipped with a good shield. In the novice village, the Young Dragon Shield was one of the best shields.
There wasn"t a just a shield.
Black Iron Helmet (Black Iron Rank)
Defense: 3 - 6
Strength: +1
Const.i.tution: +1
Although the attributes were common, at this stage, this was one of the best equipment. He could sell it for a good price back the novice village.
Among the remaining items, a fire skill book "Burning" was dropped, which Lu Yang directly learned.

Type: Fire Spell
Consumption: 12 Mana
Casting time: 1.5 seconds
Distance: 30 yards (27.4m)
Description: Release a flame to the target, wrapping its body in flames, making it more vulnerable to fire damage. Can be stacked 5 times, each stack enhances the flame spell damage by 15 and deals 10 fire damage for 30 seconds.
This was currently useless. It only works when killing a boss. The rest items were 6 small instant mana recovery potion and 7 small instant healing potion.
Small Health Recovery Potion: Instantly restore 60 HP of the player"s health.
Small Mana Recovery Potion: Instantly restore 80 Mana.
Compared to rest of the items. Lu Yang cared more about the 13 red and blue instant potions. He had only a maximum of 100 HP. A small instant health potion could restore more than half of his health. This could play a role in reversing a losing situation in the early stages of the game. He carefully kept them in the potion storage and continued to grind…
Lu Yang was leveling like crazy but he didn"t know that the outside world was going crazy again.
When Lu Yang used two hours to kill the golden dragon, he was overtaken by other players. When he fell out of the top 100 ranks, he killed the golden dragon. He only gained 1100 EXP from it, and still did not catch up to them. Only when Lu Yang upgraded with the Firewall spell, he attacked 20 to 30 bison at a time. It was equivalent to 20 to 30 people helping him alone. With this, his leveling rate immediately increased.
After an hour, Lu Yang returned back to the top 100.
After 3 hours, he became the 10th in the rankings.
After 5 hours, he became the top player in the rankings. At the same time, Lu Yang reached level 4, and left the second ranked behind by one level.
At first everyone saw Lu Yang reached the top of the ranking list and thought he was lucky and didn"t need to pay much attention to it. But now everyone could be sure that Lu Yang must have found a fairly good bug that allowed him to level up this quickly.
At this time, the speed of the levelling of the bosses and other major guilds had been reduced, because the level 3 monsters were very difficult to kill. The experience required to reach the next level was also 5 times that of the first level, and more importantly, only their level had risen, not the level of their men.
Facing this situation, a boss said to the people around him, "Immediately find out this Lu Yang. The first place of the ranking list belongs to the high level players of our guild. We must not let other guilds take one step ahead of us."
The old man of the [Zijin Dynasty] union, Chi Hao, also issued the same order.
The same was true for other guilds…
