After inserting the Obsidian Stone, the steel door did not show any reaction. It remained motionless.
At this moment, Gentle Snow sent a message saying that the Mechanical Knights had suddenly stopped chasing her and were hurrying over.
"Crap! It can't be, right? Is the key really useless?" Shifeng angrily punched the keyhole.
Since the simplest method did not work, he could only use a more dangerous method to enter.
Beep … Beep … Beep …
Suddenly, the steel door's keyhole released a dazzling golden light. Countless energy runes flashed on the surface of the two three-story tall doors. Subsequently, the doors slowly opened, releasing ear-piercing creaking sounds.
The Mechanical Knights had already arrived. Meanwhile, the door had also opened a gap large enough for one person to enter.
Without hesitation, Shifeng pulled out the key. The door instantly stopped moving. Following which, he slipped through the gap.
System: Steel Fortress "Barutia" discovered.
The two-story tall Mechanical Knights wanted to rush through the door. However, the gap was too narrow. In addition, the door was too large and heavy. They could only attack the door from outside. Unfortunately, their attacks were of no use.
"I'm already inside." After sending a message to Gentle Snow, Shifeng carefully advanced along the massive steel passageway.
On the other side of the Fallen Land …
"Snow, how is he?" Zhao Yueru, who had been waiting beside Gentle Snow, asked.
"He's fine. He's already inside."
"However, this Quest is really dangerous. Just now, I tested the strength of the Mechanical Knights. I discovered that these Mechanical Knights are completely different from other Special Elites. They were actually able to quickly block my attacks and counterattack instantly. If not for my fast reaction, I might have already died."
"If I don't have a Chain Skill that can deal a lot of damage, even if I kite these Mechanical Knights, I won't be able to do anything to them. On the contrary, I might even get myself killed." Gentle Snow sat down, taking out some food and drinks to recover. At this moment, the scene of the battle just now still played in her mind. It was truly too dangerous. Just the shockwave from the spear had caused her to lose over 200 HP. If she had been struck, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
After hearing Shi Feng's words, Zhao Yueru, for some reason, released a sigh of relief.
"Alright, stop daydreaming. Let's grind Birdmen in the sky. The loot and EXP here are quite good. We should be able to catch up to those top-tier experts very soon." After Gentle Snow recovered, she stood up and commanded.
Meanwhile, inside the Steel Fortress, Shifeng carefully advanced. Inside the steel passageway, there were rusty spots everywhere.. and sporadic lights.....
................... only............... a thousand years........................
After passing through a huge corridor, they arrived at a huge furnace area. The surrounding steel walls were connected to steel stairs, and under the burning furnace was a bottomless pool of water.
However, Shi Feng did not follow the stairs to the other exit. Instead, he jumped down into the pool.
Halfway through the descent, Shifeng activated Gravity Liberation. His speed suddenly decreased, and he slowly descended like a feather.
While descending, Shifeng suddenly noticed a passageway in the steel wall. The passageway was barely large enough to accommodate one person. The information he had obtained in his previous life did not mention such a thing. Shifeng slowly floated over, landing in the hidden passageway.
"There's actually a treasure chest here. Did those people not discover it in this life?" Shifeng discovered a pitch-black iron chest in the deepest part of the hidden passageway. Many runes were carved into the chest's surface. It was obvious that it was not an ordinary chest.
After careful observation, Shifeng determined that this was a Mysterious-Iron Treasure Chest. However, Shifeng did not rush over to open the chest. Instead, he used Phantom Kill and had his doppelganger take a look.
Just as his doppelganger was about to open the chest, countless arrows shot out from the steel wall, instantly killing his doppelganger. Shifeng was so shocked that he broke out in cold sweat. Fortunately, he had developed a habit of being careful in God's Domain. Otherwise, he would have died.
However, Shifeng was not in a hurry. In any case, the chest would not run away. He might as well wait until Phantom Kill's Cooldown was over before using his doppelganger to open the chest.
This time, his doppelganger safely opened the chest without any danger. Only then did Shifeng walk over, taking out the items inside the chest. [Mysterious-Iron Shield]
Equipment Requirement: Strength 25 Equipment Level 10 Defense + 69 Block Rate: 29% Strength + 7, Endurance + 10 HP + 200 After equipping, all frontal damage received is reduced by 10%. It was definitely a top-tier Level 10 shield.
There was also a Mysterious-Iron Mastery Book. After use, it would provide 10 to 50 Free Mastery Points. This item was several times rarer than the Black Stone Shield because the Mastery Points provided were permanent.
"Hopefully, my luck won't be too bad." Shifeng softly prayed as he chose to use the Mastery Book.
Following which, a series of random numbers appeared in the system, ranging from 10 to 50. As long as Shifeng shouted "Stop," the final number that appeared would be the Mastery Points he obtained. It was somewhat similar to Russian roulette.
In Shi Feng's previous life, many experts collected Mastery Books to increase their Weapon Mastery. However, Mastery Books were simply too rare. Even if one had the money, they could not purchase one. Most of them used the Mastery Books for themselves. After all, it was extremely difficult to increase one Free Mastery Point.
Shifeng had once seen a lucky player obtain a Fine-Gold Mastery Book. Many people were extremely envious when they saw the book, and some were even willing to spend 1,000,000 Credits to purchase it. However, that player was unwilling to do so, so he used the Mastery Book for himself. The numbers then changed from 30 to 200. Originally, he thought that this player's luck was extremely good. However, in the end, he only obtained 31 Free Mastery Points, causing everyone to laugh at him.
Looking at the numbers continuously changing, Shifeng's heart pounded madly. He did not know how many points he would get.
"Stop!" Shifeng shouted.
The numbers on the roulette suddenly stopped. Only then did Shifeng open his eyes and take a look.
32 points.
This was not a bad number. With this, he could obtain 32 Free Mastery Points for free. It was equivalent to the Free Mastery Points he obtained when he reached Level 20.
Shifeng opened his One-handed Sword Mastery Window.
Currently, his One-handed Sword Mastery was still at 20 points. He had reached the level of a Basic Swordsman, increasing his basic damage by 10%.
Including the 8 points he obtained when he reached Level 5 and the 5 points he kept, he had a total of 13 Free Mastery Points. Now that he had 32 points, he had a total of 45 Free Mastery Points.
Shifeng immediately added another 30 Mastery Points to his One-handed Sword Mastery, instantly raising it to the level of an Intermediate Swordsman, increasing his basic damage by 15%. He was still 50 Mastery Points away from reaching the level of an Advanced Swordsman.
Although it was only a 5% increase to his basic damage, this increase would be greatly amplified through the use of skills. The difference between peak experts and peak experts was often due to the difference in basic damage. Until now, only a few experts had reached Basic Mastery. Being able to reach Intermediate Mastery already gave him a huge lead.
