After Absolute Heaven died, his body disappeared with the wind.
Shifeng toyed with the dagger that Absolute Heaven dropped. The blade looked as if it could slice through the air. Such a degree of sharpness was definitely rarely seen.
"Blade of Assassination?" Shifeng looked at the Attribute Introduction, discovering that it was indeed a top-tier equipment for Assassins.
[Blade of Assassination] (Dagger, Secret-Silver Rank) Level 8 Job Restriction: Assassin
Attack Power + 51
Strength + 5
Agility + 12
Attack Speed + 2
Durability Passive Skill: Sharp Edge: 15% chance to cause Armor Break effect when attacking, reducing Defense by 50% for 10 seconds. Cannot be stacked.
With such high Attack Power and Agility, it was no wonder that the dagger could deal so much damage to him.
This Blade of Assassination was an assassination weapon that increased Attack Power and Speed. It was definitely the favorite weapon of Agility-type Assassins. According to Shifeng's guess, this dagger was worth at least 1 Gold Coin.
"After killing Absolute Heaven this time, I'm afraid that it will take him a long time to recover." Shifeng smiled as he looked at the Blade of Assassination.
Previously, Shifeng was worried that Absolute Heaven would suddenly follow him and ambush him. Now that he had taught Absolute Heaven a lesson with the Ice-Blue Devil Flame, not only did Absolute Heaven lose a level, but all of his equipment was also destroyed. He even dropped the Blade of Assassination. It was impossible for Absolute Heaven to find trouble with him within a short period of time.
"Brother Feng, you … you're simply too handsome! Just now, it was as if the God of Fire had reincarnated! Just looking at you from afar made me feel like I was burning! I never thought that a Swordsman class would have such a skill! If I had known earlier, I would've played as a Swordsman! In the future, I'll use this move to pick up girls!" Hei Zi ran over excitedly. Looking at the Ice-Blue Devil Flame burning on Shifeng's body, she was incomparably envious.
As for the matter of Shifeng killing Absolute Heaven … Hei Zi did not take it seriously at all.
In Hei Zi's eyes, Absolute Heaven was indeed an expert. However, he was merely an elite of Martial Union. It was normal for Shifeng to kill him. Instead, it was the handsome azure flames on Shifeng's body that shocked her.
Hearing that Hei Zi was using the Ice Blue Devil as a tool to pick up girls, Shifeng was speechless. He did not understand what Hei Zi was thinking all day long.
"This flame is not a Swordsman's Skill, but a Mysterious Flame. It can increase a player's attack damage," Shifeng explained.
"Heavenly Flame?" Hei Zi looked confused.
Hei Zi didn't know what a Mysterious Flame was, but when he heard that it could increase attack damage, he was shocked. It must be extremely precious. Seeing that the Shifeng could have such a thing, he was not jealous. Instead, he was happy from the bottom of his heart. This way, the Shifeng could become stronger. When that time came, who would dare to bully them?
At this moment, Lonely Snow had also finished picking up the loot and rushed over. He saw that the Shifeng's entire body was covered in flames, releasing a scorching heat. Moreover, the Shifeng could even control these beautiful azure flames. Lonely Snow was also incomparably shocked. He nearly thought that Shifeng was a Hidden Class. However, after listening to Hei Zi's smattering explanation, Lonely Snow also understood the value and power of the Ice-Blue Devil Flame.
The Ice-Blue Devil Flame was definitely Shifeng's secret. If others were to learn of this secret, there would definitely be many people who would want to obtain the Ice-Blue Devil Flame. However, Shifeng was actually willing to tell him. This proved that Shi Feng trusted him. Just this trust alone was enough to prove that Shi Feng trusted him. Lonely Snow felt that even if he had to sell his life to Shifeng, it would be worth it.
"Let's not chat for now. We need to kill the Steel-skinned Hippo immediately. Let's leave this place quickly. After Absolute Heaven revives, he might tell the people of Martial Union to surround and capture us, "Shifeng did not explain any further. Instead, he turned towards the Steel-skinned Hippo in the distance and dashed towards it.
Hei Zi also understood that they could not stay here for long. He started chanting an incantation, assisting Shifeng in attacking and restricting the Steel-skinned Hippo.
Although the Steel-skinned Hippo had high HP and Defense, due to its shortsightedness, it was fated to be easily toyed with by Shifeng.
What Shifeng needed to do was to charge at the Steel-skinned Hippo and deal damage with all their might. After throwing out all of their Berserk Skills, Hei Zi would then use Evil Whip to restrict the Steel-skinned Hippo's movement. Lonely Snow would then use Charge and Break before dodging. When Shifeng was 25 yards away from the Steel-skinned Hippo, the Steel-skinned Hippo would lose its target and charge around blindly. When the Cooldowns of the Steel-skinned Hippo's skills ended, Hei Zi would continue to bombard the Steel-skinned Hippo, repeating the cycle.
This time, Shifeng did not hold back. He immediately used the Ice-Blue Devil Flame, increasing his damage by 20%. At the same time, the Ice-Blue Devil Flame increased the power of his Ice and Fire Skills by 40%.
Such an increase instantly made it much easier for Shifeng to attack the Steel-skinned Hippo. Even a normal attack could cause around -50 to -60 damage. Thunder Flame Explosion could even cause over -400 damage.
Even if the Steel-skinned Hippo had high HP and Defense, its HP still rapidly decreased.
A few minutes later, the Steel-skinned Hippo let out a miserable cry, collapsing to the ground with a loud bang. It dropped four items and a large amount of EXP.
Among the three items, two were Level 15 Bronze Equipment. There was also a Tier 1 Strength Gemstone and a Bronze-ranked leather-making material. These two items fully displayed the effects of Shadow's Blessing. Otherwise, a Level 15 Elite would only drop a piece of Bronze Equipment and some materials, aside from a large amount of EXP.
"Let's go. We'll go to another place to kill Swamp Hippos."
After killing the Steel-skinned Hippo, Shifeng brought Hei Zi and Lonely Snow to another grinding spot.
The Silent Swamp was extremely large. It was two to three times larger than the Gale Canyon. Meanwhile, the Swamp Hippos occupied one-tenth of the Silent Swamp's area. Moreover, the Swamp Hippos were scattered throughout the entire Silent Swamp. It would not be easy to find them with just one or two hundred people.
Moreover, Shifeng was very familiar with the Silent Swamp. Previously, they had lived here for over twenty days. They knew which locations had the most Swamp Hippos and which locations had the fastest respawn rate. Moreover, they also knew the spawn points of the Elite monsters in the Silent Swamp. However, the only monster the Shifeng trio could deal with right now was the Steel-skinned Hippo. The other monsters did not have any obvious weaknesses, so dealing with them would be life-threatening.
"Leveling up here is just too awesome. Originally, I thought that leveling up in the Gale Canyon was already fast enough. After coming here for just over an hour, I've already reached Level 9. If this continues, I'll reach Level 10 and head to White River City in less than three hours. Those Guild elites have probably only reached Level 9," Hei Zi said excitedly. "If Cola and the others hadn't died and had come with us, all six of us would've been able to enter White River City today, becoming the first party to enter White River City."
Lonely Snow nodded in agreement.
He could not help but admit that it was simply too awesome to have Shifeng carry them. Their leveling speed was more than ten times that of others. Even if Martial Union besieged them and killed them once, they wouldn't be able to do so. However, with Shifeng carrying them, they could quickly make up for the levels they lost. Moreover, they could also improve by quite a bit. Hence, they were not afraid of going up against a large Guild like Martial Union.
Red Leaf Town, Slums …
Absolute Heaven was currently drowning his sorrows in alcohol at the Enchanted Bar. When the other players saw Absolute Heaven, they all obediently sat far away from him, not daring to approach him. Today, Absolute Heaven's killing intent soared to the heavens, and nobody wanted to provoke him.
"Damn it! What a huge loss this time! I'll return this grudge sooner or later! "Absolute Heaven did not feel heartache over the loss of levels. Instead, he felt the loss of equipment, especially that Blade of Assassination.
As long as he spent a little more time, he would be able to catch up to the EXP. However, it was a different story for equipment. It was especially true for top-tier equipment. These top-tier equipment could only be obtained by killing monsters or completing high-level Quests. It was not something that could be obtained just by spending some time.
"Just what is that azure flame? After attaching itself to my weapon, it can actually easily destroy my Mysterious-Iron Equipment and greatly reduce the durability of my Secret-Silver Weapon? "Absolute Heaven shuddered when he recalled the Ice-Blue Devil Flame emitted from Shifeng's body. This was because to players, the destruction of equipment was even more frightening than death.
Just thinking about the future, every time he crossed hands with Shifeng … It was simply a nightmare for him to destroy the top-tier equipment he had painstakingly obtained.
"Brother Absolute Heaven. Long time no see. You're still so fond of drinking, "a small bearded uncle wearing a black cloak sat across from Absolute Heaven. He smiled.
"South Wolf, how do you have the time to look for me?" When Absolute Heaven saw the newcomer, he no longer had his usual indifference.
"Of course, I'm here to congratulate you," the man named South Wolf laughed. "Haven't you always wanted to join Underworld? Now that the higher-ups have acknowledged your strength, you already have the qualifications to become an outer member of Underworld. In the future, you will be a member of Underworld. I believe you know what this means, right? "
"What? I've already passed the examination?" Absolute Heaven was so excited that he nearly jumped up.
Absolute Heaven no longer cared about the loss of his Assassination Blade. After all, there was nothing more joyous than joining Underworld.
In order to join Underworld, Absolute Heaven had spent a total of three years. After going through over a dozen examinations and tests, he had finally obtained Underworld's recognition, officially becoming an outer member of Underworld.
Underworld was an extremely mysterious organization. In the real world, they possessed an extremely frightening power. The resources, authority, and information they possessed were all things that outsiders could not imagine. Just the identities of some of the outer members that Absolute Heaven knew were enough to shock him.
However, for some unknown reason, Underworld had suddenly started paying attention to virtual reality games ten years ago.
In order to join Underworld, as an assassin, Absolute Heaven had also started playing virtual reality games.
Currently, Underworld was paying attention to God's Domain like never before. Hence, Absolute Heaven had wholeheartedly devoted himself to God's Domain. Now that he had finally become an outer member of Underworld, how could he not be excited?
"Absolute Heaven, weren't you Level 9 when I saw you before? How come he's Level 8 now? Don't tell me he was killed by that player, "the middle-aged man named South Wolf joked as he drank.
He was very clear about Absolute Heaven's strength. Absolute Heaven was definitely a top-tier Assassin. Moreover, Absolute Heaven was fully equipped with excellent equipment. He even possessed a Secret-Silver Weapon. He had also learned many rare advanced skills. In the entire Red Leaf Town, there were only a few people who could kill Absolute Heaven in a direct confrontation. Moreover, the majority of those people did not have more than a 60% chance of winning.
Aside from the famous Snow Goddess, it was impossible for anyone else to have more than an 80% chance of winning.
Moreover, if Absolute Heaven used all his strength to escape, even the Snow Goddess would not be able to stop him.
Now that Absolute Heaven had lost a level, it was very likely that he had accidentally died while doing a high-difficulty quest.
However, after hearing South Wolf's words, Absolute Heaven's expression suddenly darkened, his mood turning extremely bad.
"It can't be, right? You really got killed? Who was it?"
"Could it be that you've offended the Snow Goddess? You can't be so foolish as to provoke her, right?"
When South Wolf saw Absolute Heaven's gloomy expression, he knew that he had guessed correctly. Immediately, he spat out the wine in his mouth. (To be continued …)
