After inserting the obsidian key, there was no reaction from the steel gate. It still did not move as usual.
At this moment, a message arrived from Gentle Snow. He told Shi Feng that the Mechanical Knights suddenly stopped chasing him and quickly returned.
"Damn it, it's impossible, right? The key really doesn't work? '' In anger, Shi Feng suddenly sent a punch into the keyhole.
Since he could not use the simplest way to enter, then he could only use more dangerous methods to enter.
Of ... In .. In …
Suddenly, a dazzling golden light radiated out from the keyhole. Countless energy runes flashed at the pair of three-tiered gates. After which, the gate slowly opened, emitting an ear-piercing creaking sound.
Seeing that the Mechanical Knights had already rushed over, while a gap suitable for someone had opened between a pair of gates …
Without hesitation, Shi Feng took out an obsidian key, and the gate stopped moving instantaneously. Following which, Shi Feng squeezed himself through the gap between the gates.
System: You have found Barrutia Steel Fortress.
The two-storied high-ranking Mechanical Knights tried to rush in through the gate. However, the gap between the gates was too narrow to pass through. Other than the enormous weight of the gate, the Knight Mechanics could only bombard the attacks on the outer gate. Unfortunately, their actions were not the least bit useful.
"I'm inside. '' After Shi Feng sent a message to Gentle Snow, he carefully headed forward along the giant steel path.
On the other side of the Land of Damage. . .
"Snow, how's it going?" Waiting at the side, Zhao Yueru asked as she saw Gentle Snow running towards her.
"No problem . He's already inside.
“However, this Quest is really dangerous. I roughly estimated the strength of the Mechanical Knights just now, and I have discovered that these Mechanical Knights are completely different from other Special Elites. They can quickly block my attacks, in addition to directly returning with a counterattack. If it wasn't for my quick reaction, I would probably be dead by now. ”
"If we don't have a skill that can continuously deal a large amount of damage, even if we can fly it, we will still be helpless against these Mechanical Knights. Instead, we'll just hoard our own bodies. “Snow Softly sit down and take some drinks, eat and drink to recover. Right now, his mind was filled with the scene of the previous battle. It was really a thrilling situation. Just by receiving the shockwave, which resulted from the Mechanical Knight's spear hitting the ground, he lost over 200 HP. If the weapon were to hit him directly, the consequences would be unimaginable.
After listening to Gentle Snow's words, for an unknown reason, Zhao Yueru let out a sigh of relief.
“Alright, stop dreaming. We'll grind the Birdmen in the canyon. The loot and experience here is quite good, so we should be able to quickly surpass those top-tier experts, ”After recovering, Gentle Snow stood up and ordered.
Meanwhile, inside the Steel Fortress, Shi Feng advanced carefully. Signs of rust and corrosion covered every inch inside the fort. There were only flashing flakes of light inside, barely allowing Shi Feng to see the path clearly.
After walking far enough, Shi Feng found no danger. There was only the occasional sound of water droplets and the rumbling sound of machines operating. Although more than a millennium had passed, the majority of the machines here still functioned normally. One could clearly see just how advanced the techniques possessed by the Dwarf civilization were.
After passing through a large passageway, Shi Feng arrived at an area with a humongous smelting furnace. The steel walls surrounding the furnace were connected by steel stairs, and at the bottom of the furnace was an endless puddle of water.
However, Shi Feng did not walk down the stairs towards the next exit. Instead, he jumped up and jumped towards the pool.
Halfway through, Shi Feng activated Gravity Liberation. The speed of the fall decreased sharply, his body slowly descending like a feather.
While descending, Shi Feng suddenly realized there was a passage on the wall. That part could barely let someone in. However, the information Shi Feng had gathered in his previous life did not mention such a passage. Hence, Shi Feng slowly floated up, accurately landing in the hidden passageway.
“Actually there's a treasure chest here! Didn't any of those people see him last time? '' Shi Feng discovered that, in the deepest part of the passageway, there was a large pitch-black steel chest. Many runes were carved into the chest, and a quick glance was enough to say that it was not just a simple chest.
After observing it in detail, Shi Feng decided that the chest was a Mysterious-Iron Treasure Chest. However, Shi Feng did not rush to open the Treasure Chest. Instead, he used Phantom Kill, letting his doppelganger go and take a look.
Just as the doppelganger began to activate the Treasure Chest, the surrounding steel walls shot out countless flying arrows. The doppelganger was killed in an instant, scaring Shi Feng. Fortunately, Shi Feng had made it a habit to be careful and thoughtful when in Gods Domain. Otherwise, he would really die.
This time, the doppelganger managed to safely open the Treasure Chest. With no more danger, Shi Feng walked over to the Chest and took out the contents.
Inside, there was a Mysterious-Iron ranked Blackstone Shield. It was truly a top-tier Level 10 Shield.
[Blackstone Shield] (Mysterious-Iron Rank)
Level 10's
Equipment Requirement: Strength 25
Defense +69
Maintain Rate 29%
Power +7, Durability +10
HP +200
Upon completion, all damage received from the front will be reduced by 10%.
There was also the Mysterious-Iron Mastery Book. When used, players would randomly receive 10 to 50 Free Mastery Points. This item was several times rarer than the Blackstone Shield. That was because Mastery Points could last players forever, whereas Blackstone Shield could not.
"Hopefully my luck is not too bad," Shi Feng prayed a little before choosing to use the Mastery Book.
After that, the System starts displaying a random stack of numbers ranging from 10 to 50. top,' the final number to appear would be the number of Mastery Points he would obtain . As long as Shi Feng shouted 'S top,' the last number to appear was the number of Mastery Points he would earn. It is similar to Russian Roulette.
In Shi Fengs previous life, many experts gathered different types of Mastery Books to increase their Weapon Mastery. However, Mastery Books were too rare, and even with money, one might not necessarily be able to afford them. Most of the players who obtained the Mastery Book would use it instead of selling it. After all, it was extremely difficult to obtain a single Free Mastery Point.
Shi Feng had once seen someone lucky enough to obtain the Pure Gold Mastery Book. Many players looked at that person with overwhelming envy, and some were even willing to spend a million Credits to purchase the Mastery Book from that person. However, that person refused to sell and instead, used the Mastery Book for himself. The range of Free Mastery Points provided by the Pure Gold Mastery Book was between 30 to 200. At first, everyone thought this person was very lucky. However, that fellow only earned 31 Free Mastery Points, in the end, becoming a laughingstock for everyone. The points he obtained were no better than the Mysterious-Iron Mastery Book.
Looking at the constantly rotating figures, Shi Fengs heart was pounding, not knowing what number would come out.
"Stop!" Shouted Shi Feng.
The number wheel suddenly stopped, and Shi Feng peeked opened his eyes and looked at it.
32 points.
Relatively good number. . Shi Feng had just easily obtained 32 Free Mastery Points, which was equivalent to the Free Mastery Points he would earn by leveling up to Level 20 .
Shi Feng opened his One-handed Sword Mastery Window.
Right now, his One-handed Sword Master was still at 20 points, placing him at the level of an Apprentice Basic Swordsman and increasing his Base Damage by 10%.
8 Free Mastery Points he intended for leveling up to Level 5, and the 5 points he had retaining from before, he now had a total of 45 Free Mastery Points . If it included the 8 Free Mastery Points he obtained to level up to Level 5, and the 5 remaining points from before, he now had a total of 45 Free Mastery Points.
Shi Feng immediately added 30 Mastery Points to his One-handed Sword Mastery. Instantly, his One-handed Sword rose to the level of an Intermediate-ranked Swordsman, increasing his Base Damage by 15%. As for becoming an Advanced Apprentice Swordsman, he was still 50 points away from doing so.
Although it was only a 5% increase in Base Damage, it could not be taken lightly. The damage of this Base would be magnified many times after taking into account the bonus of the Skills. Often, the gap that existed between top-tier experts and normal experts was due to the difference in Base Damage. At this stage of the game, there might only be a few experts who have achieved Basic Mastery. Shi Feng had already achieved Intermediate Mastery, leading them by a lot.
Just as Shi Feng was about to continue advancing deeper into the Steel Fortress, the fortress alarm rang.
