After wasting a bit of time dealing with Xiao Rou, Chen Han continued handling the real business!
Next, it was time to become a [Sword Immortal]!
There were countless character classes in [Doomsday Dawn], ranked SSS, S, A, B, C, D—and only one SSS.
After reaching level 10, one could awaken a class, provided they spent money to buy a [Class Card].
A D-class class required VIP3, and so on.
Just reaching A-class required VIP6, and topping up 5 million!
“Suit Thug” was currently at that level.
And even with that strength, “Suit Thug” barely ranked within the top 300 in all of [Doomsday Dawn]—showing how insane the spending in this game was!
Of course, this game did have a friendly side—monsters in the wild could drop [Class Cards] at a small chance.
As far as Chen Han knew, in his previous life a beauty nicknamed “Wild Rose” accidentally obtained an S-class Class Card and became a dominant force.
That kind of luck was truly heaven-fed!
Without hesitation, Chen Han poured all 800 million he had into the game.
This money wouldn’t even be useful as toilet paper in the apocalypse.
[Congratulations to player “Suit Thug” for upgrading to VIP12.
Rewards: Psionic Crystal200, Purple Steel200, Serrated Knife*1 (Doomsday Dawn Exclusive)]
[Congratulations to player “Suit Thug” for upgrading to VIP13.

[Congratulations to player “Suit Thug” for upgrading to VIP14.
Rewards: Psionic Crystal400, Gold Steel400, Grenade Assault Rifle*1 (Doomsday Dawn Exclusive)]
[Congratulations to player “Suit Thug” for upgrading to VIP15.
Rewards: Hidden Class “Sword Immortal”, “Immortal Sword” Blueprint (Gold).]
A flood of system messages popped up—seeing these treasures made Chen Han’s heart almost leap out.
The ones without the note (Doomsday Dawn Exclusive) were absolute monster-killing artifacts!
Sure, there were plenty of firearms in the real world, but after the game overlapped reality, those firearms became useless against zombies!
Chen Han had seen it himself—an actual grenade was worse than a brick from [Doomsday Dawn]!
Basically, once the apocalypse began, nearly all existing real-world resources became scrap.
To survive, one had to kill zombies for drops.
What excited him most was that VIP15 rewarded a gold-tier “Immortal Sword” blueprint.
As a mobile game, weapons definitely had tiers—and gold was the highest, the ultimate ceiling.
In his previous life, even if Chen Han had the blueprint, he couldn’t craft it—the required materials were terrifyingly scarce.
But now things were different—he had money!
Lots of it!
Calming down, Chen Han fixed his gaze on the hidden class “Sword Immortal”.
There were still two and a half days before the [Doomsday Dawn] recharge channel closed—after that, the only way to get a [Class Card] was pure luck!
“Use [Class Card]!”
After a series of operations, the class column on “Suit Thug”‘s panel changed to [Sword Immortal].
Although the character level reset, the skill levels did not!
Opening the marketplace, he found [Skill Upgrade Coupons]—priced at 1000 gold each, with over fifty thousand available.
Chen Han bought them all.
The Sword Immortal came with skills: D-rank Sword Draw Slash, D-rank Sword Thrust, D-rank Clear Wind Sword.
“Upgrade Sword Thrust first!”
Generously, Chen Han clicked one-key upgrade.
As long as there were enough [Skill Upgrade Coupons], one-key upgrade would max the skill.
[D-rank Sword Thrust LV2 Upgrade Successful]
[D-rank Sword Thrust LV3 Upgrade Successful]
[D-rank Sword Thrust LV4 Upgrade Failed]
[D-rank Sword Thrust LV4 Upgrade Failed]
…
Five minutes later, Chen Han was dumbfounded.
[D-rank Sword Thrust LV10 Upgrade Successful.
Promoted to S-rank Ten Thousand Swords Return.
Total Cost: 3560 Skill Upgrade Coupons]
[S-rank Ten Thousand Swords Return (Sword Thrust): Consumes 1000 psionic energy, unleashes a 9999-damage AoE attack lasting 3 seconds.
During activation, sword qi carries a destruction effect, causing irregular crushing damage—use with caution!]
“Damn, maxing one skill cost over three thousand coupons—this is insane!”
Chen Han cursed out loud.
He strongly suspected one-key upgrade was designed to trap suckers!
Still, the skill effect was good—instantly upgraded to SSS-tier.
But the cost was scary—”Suit Thug” had only 10,000 psionic energy at level 43, meaning he could only fire it ten times.
If he remembered correctly, after awakening at level 10, normal players only had around 1000 psionic energy—barely one cast of “Ten Thousand Swords Return”.
Clearly, he couldn’t max everything.
Otherwise, psionic energy would never be enough.
Chen Han turned to the D-rank skill Sword Draw Slash.
This time he was smart and didn’t use one-key upgrade—and the success rate improved a lot.
In the end, it took about 2000 coupons to max Sword Draw Slash.
[D-rank Sword Draw Slash LV10 Upgrade Successful.
Promoted to SSS-tier Heaven-Slashing Sword Draw Technique.]
[SSS-tier Heaven-Slashing Sword Draw Technique (Sword Draw Slash): Consumes 1000 psionic energy.
A single slash that tears through the void, ignoring enemy defense.
The torn void can also block enemy attacks.]
Hiss!
Chen Han took a deep breath—this was a perfect offense-defense sword move!
The Sword Immortal class was truly terrifying!
After upgrading two SSS-tier skills and using up all his upgrade coupons, Chen Han stopped.
The marketplace was completely out of Skill Upgrade Coupons.
And it was unlikely players would restock large quantities anytime soon.
Once done, Chen Han controlled “Suit Thug” to approach an NPC in Dawn Tower.
While he still had time, he needed to prepare materials for crafting the “Immortal Sword”.
The “Immortal Sword” blueprint listed all the materials—every single one was orange-tier.
In [Doomsday Dawn], materials and equipment had five tiers.
From low to high: White, Blue, Pink, Purple, Orange.
Equipment wasn’t easy to acquire—wild zombie drop rates were extremely low.
Most gear came from quest blueprints, then crafting.
This made game equipment extremely expensive.
Even with the tens of billions of gold Chen Han currently had, he still couldn’t buy out the entire market.
But that was fine—Chen Han already had a plan.
He would make a fortune using equipment!
Chen Han calculated—the materials alone for the Immortal Sword were worth over ten million.
As far as he knew, the entire [Doomsday Dawn] didn’t yet have a single orange-tier weapon.
Most Immortal Sword materials could be bought in the marketplace—but one main material, [Meteoric Fine Steel], was in extremely short supply.
It dropped only from the “Chainsaw Nightmare” dungeon, an orange-tier material.
Chainsaw Nightmare was a level 50 dungeon, known by players as “the impossible death dungeon”.
Even the current rank-one player, “Weeble”, had never cleared it.
Thinking of this, Chen Han smiled.
“If I enter the dungeon and one-shot the boss with a single slash, what kind of reaction will the players have?”
