Gentle Snow's invitation caused Zhao Yueru and Xiao Yue'er to notice.
Shi Fengs strength must have been great. However, they had never specifically seen him in action, so they were very curious about his abilities. They wanted to experience the power of the rumored Moon Star Kingdom Forging Chief.
"Really! Join our team, Brother Black Flame! Our team members are very skilled, so our leveling efficiency will be much higher," Xiao Yue'er said from the side.
Zhao Yueru sent a sharp gaze towards Xiao Yue'er. The girl actually made a statement before she could.
Xiao Yue'er hid behind Gentle Snow, cunningly sticking her little tongue out towards Zhao Yueru.
Zhao Yueru stomped her feet furiously, causing her chest to jump indeterminately. If not for the presence of Black Flame, he would have given this little girl a lesson this time as well.
Although these beautiful women were filled with an interest in Shi Fengs strength, instead the fighting spirit of the other two male players rose. What did Shi Feng have to gain the attention of those three beautiful women? Suddenly, a feeling of competition grew within them. They looked at Shi Feng with a defiant expression, not believing that they were worse off than Shi Feng.
Regarding these challenging views, Shi Feng paid no attention to them. He said in a low tone, "Thank you for your goodwill, Miss Snow. But, I have a Mission that I have to do here, so I can't level up with you guys."
"Mission, what is it?" Gentle Snow was slightly surprised. This place was a Level 8 monster area, so he was extremely curious about this Mission Shi Feng had. But, trying to ask about someone else's secret was disrespectful, so he officially said, "Then, we won't bother you anymore. If you need help, just ask. Even though we don't know how much help we can provide, we will still try our best to help you."
Shi Feng smiled faintly when he heard Gentle Snow's offer. It was good news that someone was willing to help him. It was not an easy task to enter the Barrutia Steel Fortress. There would definitely be monsters there, and it would take a long time for Shi Feng to face them alone. If there was a very strong team helping him, then he would be able to save a lot of time.
"That's great! I have to go to a certain place. However, there are many monsters there, so it is not easy for me to enter by myself. Can you all help me clean up the area?" Shi Feng begged.
Originally, Gentle Snow was still thinking of ways to deepen the relationship between them and Shi Feng. Never had he thought that Shi Feng would actually take the initiative to ask for their help. Gentle Snow quickly said, "Alright, I'll invite you in the team. You lead the way."
Shi Feng accepted the invitation, joining Gentle Snow's team.
Under Shi Fengs direction, the team quickly arrived at the core region of the Physis Cliff.
"We will arrive after passing through this forest. However, the number of Bird Humans here was extremely high. They all live in the trees and are hard to detect, so you all have to pay attention to the Birdman coming down at all times. If they catch you in their claws, they will carry you high into the air, then throw you to death," Shi Feng told as he walked.
"It's just a bunch of Birdmen. What's there to be afraid of? Notice how we will take care of this Birdman," the Shield Warrior from the team patted his chest, speaking in a disdainful tone.
Shi Feng did not speak anymore, only silently removing the leaves that blocked his path.
However, Gentle Snow was not reckless. Instead, he ordered, "Everything, watch the air above. Protect the healer."
"Yes!"
The two male players instantly turned serious, not daring to be careless. They were tightly guarding Xiao Yue'er's side. As long as Xiao Yue'er survived, she would be able to revive them after leaving the battle. That way, the EXP ability and skill expertise lost will be massively reduced.
As expected, not long after, four white-haired Bird Men descended from the treetops. The sharp claws on both of their legs shot down at a shocking speed, like an eagle hunting its prey, capturing the male Guard in an instant. The remaining team members reacted quickly, either using their weapons to block the claws or avoiding them completely.
Although the twin daggers in Little Song's hands were constantly replying, the Birdman's claws were simply too hard. No matter what he did, he could not injure the claws clutching his shoulder. Although he wanted to attack the Birdman directly, his position prevented him from landing an attack on the monster's body. He could only helplessly dangle, slowly rising into the air.
Zhao Yueru used a Fire Explosion on the wings of a Level 9 Birdman, causing - 53 damage. The fire burned some of the Birdman's feathers, causing the Birdman to instantly fall from the sky. Gentle Snow was already waiting below by the time the Birdman landed. He directed the Split to the Birdman's neck, sending the Birdman and its prey flying along with the attack and causing -61 damage.
Facing the Level 9 Bird Man, Zhao Yueru and Gentle Snow dealt extremely high damage even though the difference of 4 Levels was quite good.
The wounded Birdman looked pitiful. However, the Bird Man had a total of 1,000 HP. Just this amount of damage was meaningless. It would be even better after applying spit on his wounds.
Moreover, this was the first time Gentle Snow and the others dealt with the attack pattern of flying monsters. They did not know the attack patterns and effective battle techniques.
Even though Gentle Snow's team managed to save the Guard, they were still at a disadvantage against the four Bird Humans hovering in the sky. Other than Gentle Snow and Zhao Yueru, who managed to deal 50 damage to the Birdman, the damage dealt by the Guard and Shield Warrior did not exceed 20. However, it was not because they were weak, but because the Bird Man was wearing a Leather Armor; their defense was not low. Other than level suppression, the two male players would not be able to deal any significant damage.
"What does this boy want to do? He hasn't helped all this time. He even watched from the side. Is he just a paper tiger!?" The Shield Warrior, unable to stand still and watch, laughed at Shi Feng in a gentle tone.
However, just as the Shield Warrior finished speaking, Shi Feng took action.
With a sudden leap, Shi Feng jumped through the trees, arriving at the top of the tree. Now that Shi Fengs Agility had reached 40 points, apart from activating the Hidden Skill, Flying Steps, he could jump up the tree top easily like a martial arts expert. His sword then landed on the Birdman that flew through the air, one after another.
Each slash from Shi Fengs sword caused - 160 damage, at least three times the amount Gentle Snow and the others had dealt.
This caused the Shield Warrior and Guard to instantly shut their mouths.
Xiao Yue'er watched Shi Feng jump around the forest with a face full of admiration, his two eyes sparkling with radiance.
Zhao Yueru, too, was slightly enamored. Black Flame was definitely not like a person who was just lucky.
Only Gentle Snow remained extremely calm. However, Shi Fengs battle manner actually gave him enlightenment. He felt that his previous way of fighting was inflexible, unable to accommodate different situations. However, he could not be blamed for this. The virtual reality games available earlier did not contain a flexible fighting style. It won't be easy for him to change in such a short time.
A moment later, the four soaring Bird Men fell dead. Their bodies fell violently to the ground, dropping several Copper Coins and some Light Feathers.
"Let's go." Shi Feng wrapped his pair of swords after landing on the ground. He then walked towards his destination.
"Sister Black Flame, don't walk too fast! Teach me how to fight, too, okay?" Xiao Yue'er excitedly chased after Shi Feng, hugged Shi Fengs arm and shook him.
"This is a technique for Close Distance Work. You don't have to learn it as a Religious Leader." Shi Feng did not think that Xiao Yue'er would be so friendly and unrestrained. He was a completely different himself who became respectable a few years later.
"You little girl! Just for a minute and you've been causing trouble! Didn't Brother Black Flame say it already? You're not cut out for that!" Zhao Yueru pulled Xiao Yue'er away, panting. Unknowingly, the way he referred to Shi Feng had changed as well, suddenly becoming more intimate.
