The Strongest Sword God Reincarnation
Chapter 81. Equipment Upgrade
Shi Feng was shocked after reading the System Notification.
Blackbeard's Generosity rose to 1000 points, reaching a level of Respect.
System: Congratulations! You are the first player to reach the Respectable Favour Level that is with an NPC. Gift 1 Mysterious Iron Treasure Chest.
"Luck really can't be stopped once he comes along. I wonder what stuff will come out." Shi Feng impatiently opened the delicate Mysterious-Iron Treasure Chest.
Inside the Treasure Chest, there were equipment and an Ornament.
[Dark Chaser Cloak] (Secret Silver Level)
Equipment Requirement: Agility 70
Defense +20
Strength +4, Agility +8, Endurance +4
Movement Speed +2
Evaluation +6
Additional Ability: Silent Steps: Allows the user to arrive behind the target in silence. Maximum distance 40 meters.
Quiet Time: 3 Minutes
[Translator Continents] (Mysterious Iron Levels)
Level 7's
Equipment Requirements: Intelligence 30
Intelligence +6, Resilience +2
Magic Damage increased by 5%
In the present times, these two pieces of equipment could be considered extremely rare. That was especially true for the Dark Chaser Cloak. Such robes were perfect for Weapon Specialists, and it would definitely increase their strength when used. Meanwhile, the Silent Step was an ability similar to the Instantaneous Movement of Magician and Shadow Steps of Assassins. The equipment is intended for PK [1].
Translator Pendants were even more than top-tier Decorations. Just based on the 5% increase in Magic Damage alone, Magicians could continue wearing pendants up to level 20 without lagging behind in the least.
"Let's give this decoration to Blackie." After thinking, Shi Feng considered that Blackie was the most trustworthy person at the moment, and he was also a Magician. As for the Cloak, he currently could not use it. The condition will be Agility why 70 points is too high. At the very least, Shi Feng had to be Level 10 before he could use it.
Seeing the equipment, Shi Feng suddenly recalled that he was already Level 5. Just by relying on the Attributes of the Hell Blade, other than adding 6 of his Free Attribute Points to Strength, he could now use the Silver Moon Set Equipment.
Right at Level 5, Shi Feng was able to use the best Set of Equipment for Swordsmen below Level 10. His overall attributes were completely without rivals, and the Missions he would undertake later on would become much easier.
Hence, Shi Feng added all of his Free Attribute Points into Strength and used five pieces of the Silver Moon Set. Also, now that Shi Feng was at Level 5, the Swordsman's Trapping-Use Talent had been activated. Shi Feng could now use two One-handed Swords. Shi Feng then took out the Secret Silver-level Red Blade, equipping it on the other hand.
After completely equipping himself, Shi Feng was shocked when he saw his own Attributes. There were very few players with Attributes like his in the entire God's Domain.
Not to mention the Effect Set on the Silver Moon Equipment Set…
Effect 1: Attack Power +15, Defense +30
Effect 2: HP increased by 10%, Life Shield (Tier 2): Once activated, creating a Life Shield that absorbs 60% of the damage received, with a maximum of 500 damage absorbed.
Effect 3: The damage received is reduced by 10%, Attack Speed by 10%.
Shi Fengs HP was now close to 1,000 points. With these three Effects, its survivability was even greater than that of MT. Its damage output had received a greater increase.
Wearing a silvery-white armor, the pitch-black Hell Blade hung on one side of his waist while the fiery red Red Blade hung on the other, Shi Feng was like a hero traveling the world.
There was still some time before the meeting with Gentle Snow, so Shi Feng received two Advanced Missions from Stone Beating City. They were all Missions that required him to kill a Level 10 Twin-headed Snake. Both Missions required 20 Snake Bile and 30 Venomous Nets. After completing the Mission, Shi Feng would be able to obtain rare Ore and Forging Materials. All of these materials were needed to make Mysterious-Iron Equipment and Weapons, and normally, they were extremely difficult to find.
After running slowly for over twenty minutes, Shi Feng finally arrived at an oasis in the White Desert. There was a group of Twin-headed Snakes circling nearby.
[Twin Headed Switch] (General Level)
HP 950/950 HP
Although the Twin-headed Snake had low HP, an average Level 10 player would not be able to play alone against them. Usually, they needed help to take out these monsters.
Monsters in the God's Domain would have a qualitative change after reaching Level 10. Their attack patterns are very flexible, and they know how to defend against attacks. These are traits you won't find on Common monsters below Level 10. Without a lot of battle experience, ordinary players would find it extremely difficult to head off or dodge their attacks. Apart from this, their attacks would bring additional Special Skills, and the slightly missed attention players would have to pay with their lives.
As for the Twin-headed Snake's attack pattern, he would usually attack with one of his heads, while defending with the other's head. Because of this, a single player would find it difficult to deal damage. In addition to the Fatal Fearing skill he possessed, as long as it bit the player, they would be poisoned and lose 50 HP every second for 15 seconds. If they did not eliminate the poison, an ordinary player would practically lose their lives because of it.
Shi Feng slowly drew closer to the Twin-headed Snake.
Before he roughly reached a distance of 20 meters, a Twin-headed Snake as tall as an adult took out its tongue, rushing towards Shi Feng.
Since he had been found, Shi Feng took the initiative to hurry over as well.
Wind Blade!
The Blades of Hell turned into a streak of black light, piercing to the vital point of the Twin-headed Snake. The snake reacted very quickly, one of its heads directly bit the Hell Blade, preventing the Hell Blade from moving an inch. Meanwhile, the other head opened its mouth wide, its sharp venomous fangs emitting a bluish-green poison while biting Shi Feng.
Shi Fengs other hand waved the Red Blade, his weapon turning into a red line as it slashed at the Twin-headed Snake.
_Peng!_
He was pierced as the Twin-headed Snake retreated, and damage of over 60 points appeared above his head. On the other hand, Shi Feng had only lost a little over 10 HP, and he did not retreat even a single step backward. After which, the Blade of Hell slashed towards the stomach of the Twin-headed Snake, immediately causing - 96 damage. Incidentally, the ability of the Hell Blade, the Curse of Catastrophe, was triggered, greatly reducing the Attributes of the Twin-headed Snake.
However, Shi Feng was not finished yet. He continued the Red Blade incision, piercing the vital points of the Twin-headed Snake and causing damage - another 112.
By the time the Twin-headed Snake started to react, its HP had already been reduced by half.
.
When one of the snake heads bit Shi Feng, he dodged to the side, and his foot stomped on the ground, pushing him forward. His action caught the other snake's head in shock, leaving him unable to attack or defend.
Double Slash!
The Hell Blade and Red Blade pierced deep into the stomach of the Twin-headed Snake. Shi Feng suddenly pulled it, slashing the Snake's body and leaving two long wounds.
Two damage appeared above the head of the Twin-headed Snake, - 156 and -132. In addition, snakes also receive Negative Effects of Bleeding.
The Twin-headed Snake still wanted to retaliate. However, before he could reach Shi Feng, he bled to death.
System: Level 10 Twin-headed Snake killed. Difference of level 5. The EXP gained increased by 500%. Gained 1,000 EXP.
The Twin-headed Snake gave Shi Feng one Bile of Snake.
Shi Feng did not use much skill throughout the killing process, especially just using normal attacks. He easily took care of a Level 10 monster. However, Shi Feng was still not satisfied. Especially after his first stab attack. The Twin-headed Snake actually blocked the attack. Otherwise, he would have been able to kill the Twin-headed Snake with a series of attacks continuing.
Shi Feng then began searching for his next target.
After an hour, Shi Feng had killed over 40 twin-headed snakes. His experience increased to 81% of Level 5. His speed rose to its rocket-like level, and his experience acquisition was even faster than forging equipment.
Shi Feng could not help but have mixed feelings about it. With the entire Silver Moon Set Equipment next to two top-tier Weapons, killing monsters of a higher level became extremely easy. If the situation continued like that, Shi Feng would reach Level 6 in less than an hour.
"I'm still lacking 3 Snake Bile and 5 Venomous Fingers. But, all the Twin-headed Snakes in this area are dead. It might take a while for a new monster to respawn." Shi Feng scanned his surroundings. There really is no twin-headed snake.
Shi Feng had no choice but to run elsewhere to grind the Twin-headed Snake.
But, just after walking a few steps, three Twin-headed Snakes slid out of the oasis. Among the three, one of them had a larger head than the other two, and there was also a horn on each of its heads. This was the Snake King patrolling his territory.
"Ehh, a Rare Elite, right?" Shi Feng licked his lips when he saw the Twin-headed Snake King, his lips showing a faint smile. A Rare Elite was not something that one could often encounter. He would appear at random, and his strength was little more than a normal Elite monster. The drop rate is also very good. Being able to meet one of them all depends on luck.
