The Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God (INDONESIA)
Chapter 7 – Leveling Easily
The Red Leaf Forest consists of beautiful maple trees. Level 5 monsters roamed around the forest. For players below Level 3, this was a limited area. Shi Feng, too, was no match for this Level 5 monster, even though he had reached Level 1.
However, Shi Feng dashed into the Red Leaf Forest without hesitation. Carefully, he advanced into the inner part of the forest.
A Level 5 Forest Wolf could be seen patrolling around the forest from time to time. Shi Feng was currently only Level 1. If he did not stay a considerable distance away from them, Forest Wolf's sensitive nose would kiss him.
A Level 5 Forest Wolf had 400 HP. It also had a high Attack Power. It only took two bites from the wolf for Shi Feng's 120 HP to fulfill its purpose.
Shi Fengs only choice was to secretly avoid the Forest Wolves, taking a large detour around them.
Aside from the Forest Wolves, Shi Feng also met the adorable Bear Cubs. The little ones fumbled and rolled on the grassy plains, giving it a plain and cute look. However, they were still Level 5 monsters, and they were hated by melee players. This was because of their high HP and Defense, making the fight with the Cubs extremely exhausting.
As Shi Feng used the tree to pass by a Cub Bear, he heard the sound of a wolf coming from behind him.
"Cursing! Wolf's nest! ”Quiet as Shi Feng, he still could not help but shout.
In his previous life, many players had come to the party in the Red Leaf Forest. Most of them were Level 4 or 5. Other than grinding a large number of monsters, the main reason players came here was due to the abundant loot. Skill books, leather workmanship materials, and equipment are examples. There are also a large number of plants and ores that can be obtained in the forest. However, a single accident could still lead to feast-cleaning in the Red Leaf Forest. One of the dangers that led to such a situation was the wolf nest.
The wolf's nest is hidden and difficult to notice. If the players did not pay attention to ama, a pack of Forest Wolves would pounce once the players entered the wolf nest vigilance area. If less, there will be 3 to 5 wolves; if more, 6 to 8. It was a party trap.
Shi Fengs luck was bad. Suddenly, the 7 Forest Wolves rushed out of the nest; the meat on Shi Fengs body was not enough for them to share.
The speed of the Forest Wolf was fast, but Shi Feng was not slow either. With all his attribute points going into Agility, his Movement Speed was at 6 points. He was still a Level 1 Swordsman, in the end. Even if he was pure Agility, his speed was still slower than the Forest Wolf.
Seeing the wolves chasing, Shi Feng stopped caring as he activated his lifesaving skill, 'Gravity Freedom'.
Shi Feng suddenly felt his body become as light as a feather. His speed increased with a huge leap, easily shaking off the forest wolf behind him.
In the end, ordinary monsters were still ordinary monsters. They gave up after chasing the designated area, allowing Shi Feng to maintain his life.
After running for over ten minutes, Shi Feng arrived at various mountains and hills. Several mountains stand over a hundred meters tall, located in the central area of the Red Leaf Forest. The mountain peak was surrounded by clouds and fog, creating a scene of eternal land.
“Finally arrived. ”
Shi Feng looked towards the towering mountain and its surroundings. Finding a waterfall, he walked there.
In his previous life, most players were above Level 20, so their attributes were naturally high. They could do more than they could while they were low level. Many liked to explore the various places in Gods Domain. The central region of the Red Leaf Forest was one of the famous places, so Shadow Workshop had sent a small group of Assassins to investigate it.
They would never think of finding a treasure mountain there. On one of the mountains, they found many items: rare ores, herbs, and even Treasure Chests. At the top of the mountain, there was a Secret-Silver Treasure Chest.
There were many secret places in the wilds of Gods Domain. Most of these places housed Treasure Chests, waiting to be discovered by players. Items in Treasure Chests varied greatly, ranging from Copper Coins to Dark-Gold Equipment.
The quality of the Treasure Chest could be categorized into Common, Bronze, Mysterious-Iron, Secret-Silver, Pure Gold, and Dark Gold. However, even the loot from the Common Treasure Chest could rival the drops of Elite monsters. Not to mention how good the booty from the Secret-Silver Treasure Chest was.
This Secret-Silver Treasure Box quickly allowed Shadow to become a famous Workshop in White River City. This allows Shadow to collect quite a lot of money during the initial period of the game.
More than just equipment, the Secret-Silver Treasure Chest had a secret recipe for pharmaceuticals and Forging Designs.
In Gods Domain, the drop rate of pharmaceutical recipes was not even ten thousand into one; it was even lower for Forging Designs. You could create Bronze ranked equipment using Forging Designs, something that players desperately needed. With that, making money would be a simple task.
Shi Fengs plan to earn 16,000 Credits in ten days all depended on the design. So naturally, he would not leave it for Shadow Workshop. However, low-leveled players without 40 Agility were unable to activate the Hidden Basic Ability [Flying Steps]. Without it, they would not be able to climb the rocky mountain. There are also no trails leading up to the mountain, leaving rock climbing as the only option.
Although Shi Feng did not have forty points in Agility, he had the Ring of Gravity. He could still climb the mountain after activating it.
Shi Feng easily upgraded the mountain after activating Gravity Liberation. He was already 5 meters away after a while.
When Gravity Liberation had 5 seconds left, Shi Feng found an empty spot on the ground to rest while waiting for the Gravity Liberation cooldown.
Not long after Shi Feng sat down, the stone wall suddenly shook. A [Rock Giant] appeared with bursts of roars.
[Rock Giant] (Ordinary Monster)
Level 5's
The HP 550
"That was quick . ”
Shi Feng had long since prepared when he saw the Rock Giant walking over. He took out an Explosive Berry from his bag and threw it towards the foot of the Rock Giant; a sticky orange-colored juice erupted all over the ground.
As a Level 5 monster, the Rock Giant had extremely high Attack Power, HP, and Defense. However, it had a low Attack Speed and reaction time. His body's turning speed was even slower. A player only needed 20 points in Agility to play around with Rock Giant easily. There were many Assassins who liked to deal with such foolish monsters. They could easily be killed without wasting a single HP.
Although Shi Feng did not possess 20 Agility, he had Explosive Berries. Each has an effective area of 3 x 3 meters, reduces Movement Speed by 30%, and changes speed by 70% for one minute. It was a heavenly tool used against stupid monsters. Two months after Gods Domain started, many players would use such a method to kill slow-moving, high-leveled monsters. However, such slow-moving monsters existed in limited numbers in Gods Domain, so grinding them for a fast level was impossible.
The Rock Giant's speed was sharply reduced after being struck by Explosive Berry.
Shi Feng took out the Beginner Sword and rushed towards the Stone Giant's back, cutting it down.
Above the head of the Stone Giant, three points of damage appeared. It was a damage that was barely mentioned when compared to his 550 HP. The Rock Giant also regenerated 1% of its HP every 5 seconds; it was 5. 5 HP every 5 seconds. It was very challenging to kill him in a minute.
The Rock Giant tried to turn around when Shi Feng attacked him. However, the rate of his body turnover was slow, to begin with. Now there's an extra 70% speed reduction, it's just very slow. Shi Feng attacked him twice more, following up with another [Chop], causing a series of -3, -3, -6 to appear.
This was an absolute location to increase Skill Proficiency.
After much trouble, the Stone Giant turned to face off against Shi Feng. However, Shi Feng gave no chance, quickly turning to his back where he continued to attack.
The Flash is Shattering!
Suddenly, a single sword light caused 4 damage, followed by another that dealt 5 damage, and the last one that produced 7 damage.
After the three streaks of thunder reached its target, the SP Thundering Flash increased by 3 points.
Several slashes followed.
A series of damages -4, -4, -4 were awarded. Although each attack only had an increase of 1 damage, the total damage would still be great. Although the effect of Thundering Flash had only lasted for fifteen seconds, it had greatly increased the speed of killing Rock Giant. The battle could end in a minute now, saving the precious Explosive Berry.
Even if the Rock Giant had high HP and Attack, it was no different from a practice puppet if it was unable to land a punch on Shi Feng. It only gave Shi Feng EXP and SP.
Skill Proficiency could not be improved just by using skills. When using it on monsters of the same level, there was a 20% chance of increasing it by one point. For monsters of a higher level, there was a 40% chance if it was one level higher, 70% for two levels, 100% for three levels, 150% for four levels, and 200% for the five levels. The maximum limit is 200%.
Now that Shi Feng had killed the Level 5 Stone Giant, his SP had increased by several times over the others.
Not a single minute passed before the Stone Giant finally fell.
System: Level 5 Rock Giant killed. Difference in level 4. EXP gained increased by 400%. Obtained 120 EXP.
Shi Fengs EXP bar increased by one piece. He was now 880 EXP away from Level 2. That meant he had to kill 8 other Rock Giants to reach Level 2.
The mountains in this central region were a great place to level up and search for treasures. Unfortunately, two months had passed before people found them.
Shi Feng searched the body of the Rock Giant after killing it, obtaining [Bronze Ore]. It was the material used to make Bronze Equipment. He also obtained a piece of [Hard Rock]. Next, Shi Feng searched around the empty land. A short while later he discovered a rare herb called the [Hundred Souls Flower]. It was one of the core materials used to make the [Basic Regeneration Banquet].
Just as he approached it, another Rock Giant spawned. Shi Feng threw out another Explosive Berry.
The Flash is Shattering!
Cut it!
In just a short period of time, Shi Feng obtained another Hard Stone, 120 EXP and a large amount of SP.
Shi Feng continued climbing when the cooldown finished in the Ring of Gravity.
On his way, he searched for rare herbs while killing Rock Giants.
After the fall of the 8th Stone Giant, Shi Feng became Level 2. He added all his points to Agility, letting him reach 16 points. He was only 4 points away from opening [Fast And Nimble]. SP for Chop had also reached 300 points, raising the skill to Level 2; the next level required 600 SP. The skill now increased the damage by 12 points, and its cooldown was reduced by 1 second.
The other players would go crazy if they knew about Shi Fengs leveling speed. Just moving from Level 0 to Level 1 required more than a few hours. As for rising from Level 1 to 2, at the very least, doing so would require seven or eight hours. Shi Feng spent less than twenty minutes to reach Level 2. Its leveling speed was like a rocket launch.
Shi Feng walked towards the dead Stone Giant and looked for him.
“It seems my luck is not bad at all. Even dropped equipment. '' Shi Feng discovered a piece of Cloth Armor, although he was somewhat disappointed.
[Gorgeous Cloth-Shirt] (Ordinary Equipment)
Level 4's
Defense +3
Where +10
Durability 20/20
Gods Domain had just started operating. Equipment drop rate is very low. Ordinary Equipment was extremely rare, especially Level 4 Ordinary Equipment. There must be someone who will buy it at a high price.
Shi Feng placed the equipment into his bag. Just as he was about to continue upwards, he suddenly saw a cave not far ahead.
As he walked over to check, Shi Fengs heartbeat quickened.
Shi Feng looked at the huge Stone Giant sleeping inside the cave. His entire body was made of silvery stone, different from the normal gray ones.
[Shrews] (Special Elite)
Level 6's
HP 900's
Special Elites were much stronger than normal Elites. An ordinary Elite monster could annihilate a party of 6 people of the same level. However, the Special Elite required twelve players of the same level to deal with, perhaps even fifteen players. That meant Shrews needed fifteen Level 6 players working together to kill.
However, Shi Feng rushed forward without hesitation. He used Thundering Flash immediately, causing the ray after ray of thunder to cut through Shrews' huge body.
Damage -1, -2, -3 appears over the head of the Shrews.
