Assassin at Range: The Sniper's Lethal Power-Chapter 87 - : Why the Top 1 is the Top 1

By evenly distributing the two hundred attribute points across his stats, Tristan’s panel reached an insanely impressive level.

Attributes: Strength 165 + 205, Constitution 130 + 120, Agility 481 + 65, Spirit 139 + 20

Even without any equipment bonuses, all of his main attributes have surpassed 100!

Tristan could honestly say that even if ExoGenesis were to launch right now, his integrated character wouldn’t have any issues adapting. This starting position is far better than the one he had in his previous life, and it’s more than ten times stronger than when he was at this level before.

When he was level 15 in his past life, his stats were nowhere near this absurd.

After checking out the Dark Gold Grade loot, Tristan wandered around the valley for a bit and gathered a few Silver Grade items—level 15 gear, but unfortunately, all of them were caster items.

Tristan was speechless. Was he in the wrong place? Had he accidentally entered the domain of caster gear? If he had known, he would’ve attacked that dual-wield goblin first.

Aside from the Silver Grade loot, there were also over thirty common-grade items, all of which he took.

He then decapitated Bonecrusher, cleaned up the battlefield, and that was that.

It was time to head back to Davi City.

After finishing up, Tristan noticed that Drake had sent him a message on his friend list.

[Hey... can you send me the link for that cheat you’re using?]

It’s not hard to understand why Drake would ask this. He was totally losing his composure.

Who could level up like that?

In less than half an hour, Tristan went from level 12 to 15. This wasn’t leveling; this was like riding a rocket!

Faced with this mind-boggling reality, Drake couldn’t help but wonder if Blackshade was actually cheating.

Of course, deep down, he didn’t believe Blackshade was using cheats—he knew that the game’s security level was extremely high, and global hackers had tried and failed to breach it. If there was an exploit in ExoGenesis, Drake would be more willing to believe it was a glitch or something.

But even so, he still couldn’t understand Blackshade’s leveling speed.

Was this reasonable?

It made no sense!

Sure, when Blackshade had leveled him up earlier, he showcased an impressive ability to clear groups of enemies, using a skill called Toxic Blood Plague to quickly bring his team up by eight levels. But that skill had its limitations. Its range was limited, and unless monsters grouped up willingly, it couldn’t spread endlessly.

And to level up that fast, he must’ve killed at least two or three thousand monsters, right?

That kind of large-scale fight would make most players’ legs shake, let alone join in the battle.

Was Blackshade not afraid of that?

…

Tristan, of course, knew Drake was just joking, so he didn’t take it to heart. Since he had finished everything, he decided to respond with a joke.

[My cheat is custom-made, and it doesn’t come cheap.]

Drake replied quickly: "Done? Hope I didn’t bother you."

Tristan replied, "No, I’m about to head back to Davi City. Have you finished clearing the Crimson Tomb?"

Drake sighed, "You’re really good at predicting, I just finished. I was about to head to Davi City too."

After a few seconds, Drake messaged again: "By the way, any tips on class advancement?"

After reaching level 10, Drake didn’t rush to leave the newbie village. Instead, he decided to clear a dungeon and update his gear. Now that Blackshade was free, it was a perfect opportunity to ask for advice on class progression.

Tristan thought for a moment before replying: "I have one suggestion: try to complete higher-difficulty advancement quests. Also, if you get any related hidden quests, you can combine them with your advancement quest for better rewards."

Drake was immediately impressed.

Not only had Blackshade given him such important information, but he was also incredibly generous!

When leveling up, Drake had kept an eye on outside news. ExoGenesis was taking the world by storm, and more and more players were joining.

On the forums, any valuable piece of information could easily be sold for anywhere from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of gold.

Class advancement, being such a crucial step, naturally had tons of players looking for answers. But there was almost no information about it.

Drake had never heard about quest combinations before!

In other words, this was Blackshade’s exclusive secret!

Drake immediately responded: "This information is priceless! I’ll have Sophie transfer five million gold to you. Don’t refuse, it’s a token of my gratitude!"

Tristan was stunned for a moment when he received the notification.

Hadn’t he just casually mentioned it? Why was he getting five million gold?

He quickly realized what had happened. The information he casually mentioned was something he had taken for granted in his previous life. Back then, the details of class advancement were well-documented, and players just followed the process.

But right now, there were very few level 10 players, and finding out about hidden advancements was next to impossible.

The tip he gave Drake would save him a ton of time, and the value was hard to measure!

Thinking this through, Tristan calmly accepted the gold. He knew that if he wanted to make money, he would do so in a transparent and honest way. The five million seemed like an appropriate price for the info.

After all, Tristan had already received several million dollars from Drake, along with over two hundred gold, which was already worth millions.

...

Just as Tristan was about to close the chat, he received another message from [ShieldBreaker]: "I’m about to hit level 10. Are you in the shop? I’d like to discuss Guild Token with you."

ShieldBreaker was currently level 9 and would be hitting level 10 within a couple of hours, which happened to coincide with Tristan’s return to Davi City.

Since the Guild Token was an important matter, Tristan responded: "I’m on my way back to Davi City, I’ll be there in about an hour."

ShieldBreaker replied: "Alright, see you then. By the way, can you share how you soloed that Dark Gold Grade BOSS?"

Earlier, ShieldBreaker had been struggling against the Bronze Grade BOSS in the newbie village, and now, Blackshade had soloed a Dark Gold Grade BOSS—unbelievable!

He originally thought he’d maxed out at Gold Grade BOSSes, but Blackshade had surpassed that.

Tristan hesitated for a moment. It wasn’t because he didn’t want to share, but because his combat style was something that others couldn’t easily replicate. Even if he told ShieldBreaker, he wouldn’t be able to do it.

After thinking for a while, Tristan replied: "If you can do it without taking any damage, you can solo any BOSS."

ShieldBreaker fell silent.

Everyone knew that.

But actually pulling it off? That was a whole different story.

BOSS stats were no joke—they had incredibly high health, defense, and speed. Just dodging a couple of attacks was already considered impressive, let alone doing it flawlessly.

ShieldBreaker had a sudden realization.

Maybe this is why the Top 1 is the Top 1.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, ShieldBreaker dove back into leveling.

Tristan waited a moment to make sure there were no more messages, then quickly closed the chat window and headed towards Davi City.

He couldn’t wait to see Horreo’s reaction when he saw Bonecrusher’s head.
