Awoke As A God After Auto Battling For 1000000 Years

Zhang Yue's goal was to craft a full set of Eternal Gear in the Ninth World to better prepare for the finals of the Pro League.

The finals were imminent, so Zhang Yue had no choice but to work harder.

After completing one wave of missions, Zhang Yue didn't log off to rest. Instead, late at night, he found a beast merchant in the city and received a mission to collect the D-level [Flaming Giant Bird] mission.

The mission required collecting 300 [Flaming Giant Bird] entries.

However, if he aimed for the A-grade reward, Zhang Yue would have to follow the same four-multiplier method as the previous mission.

Upon arriving at the level-56 Flaming Valley, Zhang Yue began the mission.

By around 3 a.m., he finally completed the collection of 1,200 [Flaming Giant Bird] entries.

Submitting the mission, he once again received a reward: an Eternal Gear Selective Chest.

After finishing his fifth mission, Zhang Yue finally logged off to rest.

To avoid sudden death.

At 8 a.m., he logged back in to continue completing missions.

By using the entire morning, he finished another mission to collect a B-level Giant Lizard illustration.

At this point, he had accumulated three gear selection chests.

At this rate, he estimated that it would take less than two days to complete four more missions and assemble a full set of A-grade Eternal Gear.

With this gear, he could slay the Sky Centipede and find higher-level beast merchants.

Logging off at noon to eat, Zhang Yue quickly logged back in afterward.

He accepted a mission from a beast merchant in Mechanical City and left the city immediately.

———

Meanwhile, Glory had completely collapsed.

After being taken over by Chen Long, the Chen Army had also quieted down significantly.

For the past two days, Zhang Yue's environment had been unexpectedly peaceful.

There was no place to farm gold anymore.

Zhang Yue could only hope: "When will the Empire Guild come looking for me again?"

Just as Zhang Yue thought that.

Shortly after leaving Mechanical City, while passing through a forest—

From the dense forest on both sides, which stood about a meter high, came the faint sound of rustling.

Though subtle, Zhang Yue caught it clearly.

The next second—

A black shadow shot out from the right side of the forest at lightning speed, heading straight for Zhang Yue.

The speed was so fast that an average person wouldn't have been able to dodge it.

But Zhang Yue used a Blink Step to narrowly avoid the sneak attack.

Immediately after, a large group of black-clad assassins emerged from the forest and surrounded Zhang Yue.

With a single glance, Zhang Yue recognized them: this group of assassins was the same as the ones he had encountered in the Eighth World.

Their levels were already around 60, meaning they weren't newcomers. It wasn't surprising they had chased him into the Ninth World.

In Zhang Yue's hand, the Void Staff materialized.

Sweeping his gaze across the surrounding assassins, his eyes gleamed with a hint of bloodthirsty excitement: "I've been waiting for you for so long. You've finally come."

The assassins exchanged bewildered glances.

Who says things like this when they're ambushed?

"Is this guy... excited?"

"Who's the prey here, us or him?"

The assassins were momentarily intimidated by Zhang Yue's presence.

Zhang Yue cut to the chase: "So, what benefits did the Empire Guild's mastermind offer you to make you risk your lives for him?"

The assassins looked confused by the question.

One of them replied, "You're overthinking it. We're not from the Empire Guild."

In truth, the assassins didn't even know who had hired them.

The deal was simple: someone paid, and they did the job.

Since they had undergone professional training, they knew Zhang Yue was trying to extract information. Without saying much more, they launched an attack.

"Kill!"

With a low shout, a dozen assassins charged toward Zhang Yue.

Zhang Yue calmly raised his staff, a cold gleam of killing intent flashing in his eyes.

However, before Zhang Yue could act—

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

A rain of arrows poured down, covering the assassins surrounding Zhang Yue.

Under the barrage, each assassin suffered tens of thousands of damage and was quickly crippled.

Yet Zhang Yue, who stood in the middle of the arrow storm, remained unharmed.

Clearly, the attackers had activated protection mode for him.

Caught off guard, the assassins retreated from the range of the arrow attack.

At this moment, a group of well-equipped professionals, level 55–56 and radiating overwhelming strength, approached from behind Zhang Yue.

The assassins were stunned: "Didn't they say this guy entered the Ninth World alone? Why does he have backup?"

"Then kill them all!"

The assassins used potions to recover and launched another assault on Zhang Yue.

From the approaching group, a young warrior in white armor, exuding an impressive aura, raised his sword and pointed at Zhang Yue.

With a commanding shout, he ordered, "Attack!"

At his command, dozens of professionals behind him surged forward, clashing with the assassins.

Despite their high levels, strong equipment, and professional training, the assassins were quickly overpowered by this group of elite professionals.

"What kind of strength is this?"

At this point, the assassins noticed the IDs above their opponents' heads.

When they saw that all the IDs started with [Empire], the assassins were stunned: "The... Empire Guild?"

As one of the top guilds in Dragon Nation, led by one of the three strongest players, Ice Emperor, the Empire Guild was widely known.

Though the assassins had been tasked with assassinating newcomers from the Empire Guild in the past, those were covert operations.

They would never dare to face the Empire Guild directly.

"RETREAT!"

The assassins tried to escape, but the Empire Guild professionals didn't intend to let them go.

Archers unleashed Ice Arrows, and mages cast Ice Spikes, slowing the assassins from a distance.

Then, knights and warriors charged in, quickly closing the gap and finishing them off with skillful strikes, turning the assassins into white light.

Zhang Yue had fought these assassins before and knew they were skilled operatives.

But in front of the Empire Guild, they were utterly powerless.

However, Zhang Yue knew the truth: 'weren't these assassins sent by the Empire Guild themselves?'

'So now, were they killing their own people?'

'Things are getting interesting,' Zhang Yue thought.

At this moment, the leader of the Empire Guild group, the young warrior in white armor with the ID [Empire Glory], approached Zhang Yue.

Sizing him up, he asked, "Are you Zero, Zhejiang Province's top player and the global rookie leaderboard's number one?"

Zhang Yue replied without hesitation, "Yes."

Hearing the confirmation, Empire Glory unsheathed his sword with a sharp swish, pointing it at Zhang Yue.

He declared, "Xu Bei, newly appointed sub-guild leader of Longcheng City's Empire Guild, challenges you "
