Shrews, the sleeping Rock Giant, was suddenly hit. Even if the damage caused by Shifeng was insignificant, it was still enough to wake Shrews up abruptly.
Anyone would be furious if they were suddenly woken up from their sleep.
"Puny human, I will trample you flat!" Shrews bellowed, causing the entire cave to shake. Shrews then stood up and walked towards Shifeng with large strides.
Shifeng naturally would not give Shrews any chance. Immediately, he took out an Exploding Berry and threw it in Shrews' path.
Speed had always been a weakness of Rock Giants. Even Special Elites were no exception. However, compared to normal Rock Giants, Shrews was bigger, had stronger attacks, and had more tricks up his sleeves. His Movement and Attack Speed were also slightly faster. However, after the Exploding Berry's Speed Reduction, he was still as slow as a tortoise.
Shifeng possessed 16 points of Agility, so his Movement and Attack Speed were very fast. He immediately circled behind Shrews and launched a fierce attack.
A series of damages appeared above Shrews' head.
-2, -2, -2, -2 …
Following which, he used Chop, causing 6 points of damage.
Shrews' Defense was frightening. Even after Thundering Flash's damage amplification, his Chop, which had risen to Level 2, only caused 6 points of damage. If it were a Level 1 Chop, it would only cause 4 points of damage.
After a series of attacks, Shrews finally turned around. He lifted his mountain-like foot and stomped heavily on Xiang Shifeng.
As a reincarnator, Shifeng had experienced countless battles in God's Domain. Facing Shrews, he did not panic in the slightest. With a slight movement of his feet, Shifeng quickly appeared behind Shrews, dodging Shrews' slow attacks. He then followed up with a series of wild slashes.
After 5 seconds had passed, Shrews had recovered 18 points of HP, leaving him with 886 points of HP remaining. Shifeng's efforts for half a day had been wasted in an instant.
Compared to normal monsters, monsters of Elite rank and above would recover 2% of their battle recovery every 5 seconds. Shrews had 900 HP, so he would recover 18 points of HP in 5 seconds. The damage dealt by Shifeng completely exceeded the damage dealt by Shifeng.
Even so, Shifeng still calmly swung his swords, continuously reducing Shrews' HP.
If it were an ordinary player, they would have given up. However, Shifeng would not. With his 16 points of Agility, Shifeng could easily dodge attacks. at the same time, his Attack speed, and Shrews' attacks. Of course, his Attack speed was also very fast, so the damage he dealt could completely negate Shrews' HP recovery.
Not only did he have to constantly dodge, but he also had to attack crazily. It would be very boring. High-intensity attacks were also very taxing and would cause fatigue.
As the seconds ticked by, Shrews' HP continued to decrease.
15 Shifeng's Flash..
Now that Thundering Flash's damage amplification effect was gone, the damage Shi Feng could deal was greatly reduced. Now, he could only deal 1 damage with every slash, and Chop could only take away 4 HP from Shi Feng.
After another 5 seconds, Shrews recovered another 18 HP.
Meanwhile, during those five seconds, Shi Feng had only dealt 17 damage to Shrews. Shrews's recovery was not even as fast as Shrews's.
Shi Feng frowned. Sure enough, Shrews was very difficult to kill. Without a certain amount of damage, it would be a waste of effort.
Should they give up?
Just as Shifeng was thinking …
"I'll flatten you!" Shrews bellowed, stomping his foot.
Suddenly, the ground in the cave shook, and sharp stalactites fell from the sky, covering the entire cave.
"He has a team-wiping skill?"
Seeing that the situation had taken a turn for the worse, Shi Feng retreated from Shrews' side, dodging the falling stalactites.
The falling stalactites were numerous, and their speed was extremely fast. If a team came here, they would not be able to dodge these stalactites in such a narrow space. If not for Shi Feng's body being very agile and having more space, he would have had a very difficult time dodging these falling stalactites.
After Shrews finished activating his skill, he began to show signs of fatigue. Shifeng's eyes lit up, and he immediately charged forward.
Thundering Flash!
Chop!
.... -4, -5, -6, -10 points of damage were instantly dealt.
Fatigue. It was a state of weakness after some Bosses activated their powerful skills. Not only would their Attack Power be reduced, but their Defense would also be greatly reduced.
With the Fatigue debuff, Shi Feng saw hope of killing Shrews.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, their attacks became even more ferocious.
-4, -4, -4 …
Taking advantage of Shrews' weakened state and increased damage, every slash took away 4 HP.
Shrews was in a weakened state, and his HP recovery was also reduced to 1%.
After the weakened state ended, Shifeng took away 15% of Shrews' HP.
For the rest of the battle, Shi Feng had to persevere, constantly attacking to offset Shrews' recovery. Every 30 seconds, Shi Feng would use Thundering Flash again. Following which, Shi Feng waited for Shrews to use his ultimate move. This ultimate move was undoubtedly terrifying to a team. However, to Shi Feng, it was an opportunity.
Sure enough, Shrews would activate his big move every once in a while. Shifeng would take the opportunity to take away another 16% of Shrews' HP.
Time slowly passed.
They had used 5 Exploding Berries, and Shrews still had 32% of his HP remaining.
When Shrews activated his big move again, Shifeng took away another 16% of Shrews' HP. Shrews only had 16% of his HP remaining.
Just when Shrews' HP fell to 15%, Shrews underwent a change.
Shrews' gigantic body continuously shrank, and his Attack Power and Defense decreased. However, his Attack Speed and Movement Speed increased. This change was extremely disadvantageous to Shifeng.
Although the Exploding Berries' effects were still present, Shrews' attacks became increasingly faster, and he nearly hit Shifeng.
Even if Shrews' Attack Power had decreased, a Level 2 Shifeng would not be able to withstand a hit. As long as they were hit, everything would be over. At the same time, Shrews' level would drop to Level 1, and their Skill Proficiency would also greatly decrease. This was definitely not something Shifeng wanted to see.
"Fight!" Shifeng's eyes flashed with a cold light. They activated Gravity Liberation, immediately making dodging easier.
They would not easily give up on a Special Elite that only had 15% of its HP remaining.
Shifeng continuously surrounded Shrews and madly slashed at him.
Every time they attacked, they would take away 3 points of damage, causing Shrews' HP to slowly decrease.
Gravity Liberation's duration was getting shorter, and only 7 seconds remained. Meanwhile, Shrews only had 5% of his HP remaining. As soon as Gravity Liberation ended, Shrews would definitely kill him.
Fast! Fast! Fast!
Shifeng's eyes turned blood-red, and the speed at which he attacked increased.
Just when Shrews only had 10 HP remaining, Gravity Liberation had already ended …
Shifeng's speed suddenly decreased. Shrews revealed a human-like sneer as he swung his boulder-like fist downwards.
"Die!" Shifeng's Thundering Flash's Cooldown ended.
Thundering Flash!
In a flash, Shifeng sent out three lightning bolts, which instantly pierced through Shrews' body.
-4, -5, -6.
The lightning bolts took away Shrews' last 10 HP.
With a rumble, Shrews turned into a pile of rubble.
System: Special Elite Shrews killed 4 Levels above you. EXP obtained increased by 400%. Obtained 940 EXP.
Shifeng's experience bar instantly rose by 27%, taking another large step towards reaching Level 3.
After killing Shrews, Shifeng searched through the rubble.
The loot of a Special Elite was much higher than that of a normal Elite. He obtained a piece of equipment, a Skill Book, and 16 Coppers.
"The loot from challenging someone of a higher level is really good. It actually dropped a large Bronze Shield. It can definitely be sold for a high price. It would be great if I could grind it a few more times." Shifeng looked at the blue cross shield in his hand. He could already imagine how many Guilds would be willing to pay a high price to purchase this shield.
[Giant Rock Shield] (Bronze Rank) Equipment Requirement: Strength 8 Equipment Level 5 Defense + 21 Block Rate 23% Strength + 2 Endurance + 4 HP + 30
Such Attributes could be said to be a small top-tier item. After equipping it, the user's Defense would greatly increase. The user's HP would also increase by 110 points. To a Level 5 Warrior, this was equivalent to an additional one-third of their HP. It would be more than enough to tank a Boss in a Level 5 Dungeon. It could even be used to raid a Level 8 Dungeon.
As for the Skill Book, it was also a decent skill. It was a melee skill, "Parry." It required a melee weapon and could block one attack from the front. It had a Cooldown of 30 seconds.
Parry was a popular skill for any melee Job. For Warrior Jobs, it was a must-learn skill. It was in short supply on the market. However, the drop rate was extremely low, so it was almost never sold. After all, it was a life-saving skill. If it could block one attack at a critical moment, it might be able to survive the crisis. Especially when fighting a Boss, when the healers could not heal, Parry would allow the healers to heal in time.
Shifeng looked at the Parry skill. In the end, he still chose to learn it. Although the shield and the Skill Book could be sold for a higher price, he would not kill the goose that laid the golden eggs.
After killing Shrews, Shifeng continued to climb up.
The Bronze Shield was only a small fortune. The Mithril Treasure Chest was the real treasure to make a fortune.
They were less than one-third of the way to the top of the mountain. It was very easy for them to encounter monsters at the resting point. However, there were still four Exploding Berries left, so Shifeng had no choice but to choose his route carefully.
Half an hour later.
They advanced cautiously and finally reached the top of the mountain. White fog covered the area, and visibility was very low. They could only see a radius of 20 yards.
Along the way, Shifeng had already used four Exploding Berries to kill the Rock Giants. If another monster appeared, Shifeng would have no choice but to give up and start from scratch.
After Shifeng took a few steps forward.
He could faintly make out several blurry figures in front of him.
At this moment, the system issued an emergency notification. Players have discovered the Exiled Grounds. Activating the Hidden Quest "Past Glory." Players will be temporarily cut off from all contact with the outside world. Players cannot leave this place until the quest is completed.
"Fuck, those Assassins lied." Shifeng could not help but curse inwardly. Those Assassins had definitely hidden some information.
