Flame Thrust!
Magic Knight's Rank 10 general skill increased fire damage by 15%. When the skill reached Rank 2, it could increase fire damage by 25%. It was a trump card for early PvP!
Caught off guard, I felt a sudden pain in my shoulder. It felt like I had been bitten by a venomous snake.
“128!”
The damage number was shocking, at least for my HP.
I slid out of the enemy's attack range. Gripping the Green Blade, I stared at my opponent. It was an undead skeleton player with a spear in his hand. It was none other than the Level 17 Gui Guzi, a player who could definitely rank in the Top 10 of Floating Ice City!
"Heh!"
Gui Guzi snarled and charged me with a shake of his spear. He clearly wanted revenge for last time.
Whoosh!
The spear turned into a cold light and roared like a mad dragon coming out of the sea. Although it was a normal attack, it showed his skill. This Gui Guzi was definitely not weak!
I hurriedly drank a health potion and took half a step back with my left foot. I used my shoulder to take this unavoidable attack. This way, the damage would be minimized. At the same time, I twisted my wrist and used the hilt of my sword to catch Gui Guzi's spear. Then, I pushed the blade forward and shouted, "Open! Book fans like to read:!"
Clang! Sparks flew in all directions as Gui Guzi's spear was completely knocked out of his hand. A look of shock appeared on his face as the green blade swiftly plunged into his chest like a cold glint.
Puchi!
Black blood splattered. A huge damage number flew above Gui Guzi's head — 228!
I didn't give him a chance to catch his breath. My attacks rained down on him like a storm. My longsword stabbed straight into his chest, and my body abruptly changed direction. I raised my right leg and kicked at the handle of Gui Guzi's spear. The powerful kick immediately knocked his weapon away. His Defense had failed!
Here's my chance!
Whoosh whoosh!
My longsword slashed across Gui Guzi's neck. The second attack was an additional skill. The light of Slayer Slash wrapped around the sharp sword and cut across Gui Guzi's neck.
"F * ck …"
Gui Guzi's eyes widened. He could only watch helplessly as I cut him down. I slashed my Slayer Slash across his neck and shouted in a low voice, "You're the one who asked to die. If you want to take revenge, then come at me. I'll play with you anytime!"
"Patter …"
Gui Guzi knelt on the grass with his eyes wide open. He was an Undead Knight, a type of magic knight just like I was a warrior. That was why Gui Guzi's max HP was very high. Unfortunately, his attack power was a bit low, and he couldn't one-shot me in the first place. I was confident that I could torture him to death with my mechanics.
I couldn't help but smile as I watched Gui Guzi's body fall limply to the grass. I sat on his back and drank a health potion to recover.
At this time, Gui Guzi's soul was released.
Ding! System Notice: Player "Gui Guzi" has sent you a friend request. Do you accept?
…
I was slightly surprised. I clicked accept and Gui Guzi immediately appeared in my friend list. This was my first friend in Heavenblessed. Book fans also like to read:).
A few seconds later, Gui Guzi sent me a message: "Can I ask you a question?"
"Ask away," I replied.
"Your PvP skills are very similar to someone. Are you … the Martial God, Candlelight Shadow?" Gui Guzi sent another message.
I was stunned. Candlelight Shadow?
My PvP skills are very similar to the current Candlelight Shadow?
I thought for a moment and replied, "No."
A few seconds later, Gui Guzi replied, "Then it's easy. Since you're not Candlelight Shadow, then you're not invincible. I'll definitely kill you!"
I was speechless. I closed the communicator and stood up. I looked at the night sky in the game. It was full of stars. I couldn't help but laugh softly. "Is Candlelight Shadow very strong?
If my delay is gone, even if it's only 0.3 seconds, hmph, who cares about Candlelight Shadow? "I sighed for a while.
I sighed for a while. Fuck, I used to be a grandmaster level Heavenly King of Gaming, and I had defeated Candlelight Shadow more than once. There was only one person in the entire world who could do that, and that person was currently in a half-crippled state with a delay of 0.7 seconds. Mn, if I ran into Candlelight Shadow in this state, I would definitely die.
… …
At this time, there was another ding — System Notice: Player "Amazing Expert" has sent you a friend request. Do you accept?
I couldn't help but laugh. Thirteen had finally walked out of the starting village.
I clicked accept and immediately opened up chat mode. He laughed loudly and said, "Lu Chen, I'm here. Other book friends, read normally:!
Haha, there are only three thousand people in Floating Ice City. My ranking is high enough, right? "
"Really?
I've walked out of the starting village for almost a day and a night … "I smiled lazily and poured cold water on him.
"Fuck!"
Du Thirteen laughed and didn't get angry. He continued, "I accepted a bounty quest at the city gate. I'm going to Frost Forest to kill a Commander Rank monster. If you have time, come and help me. I can't find anyone."
"Mn, mark the quest location. I'll go over now."
"Don't …"
Du Thirteen wanted to say something but stopped. After a few seconds, he said, "I'm only Level 10, and the monsters on the way almost killed me. Come and pick me up …"
"Alright."
I was even more speechless. I strode toward Floating Ice City.
Not long after, I saw Thirteen. This guy was a Level 10 warrior with white equipment. He looked like a fool and drooled at the white legs of female players passing by the city gate. He wanted to jump up and hug their legs, shouting, "Big sis, I'm hungry, quick, milk me …"
"Thirteen!"
I shouted from afar. Du Thirteen immediately noticed me and rushed to the edge of the forest. He looked at my attire and couldn't stop drooling. "Holy shit!
You're so awesome. An Iron-grade sword with added stats, an Iron-grade chest armor, Iron-grade boots, and even wristguards. Fuck … "
As he spoke, Du Thirteen changed his expression and looked like he deserved a beating. He said while drooling, "Brother Chen, do you have any weapons, armor, or leather armor? If you don't need them, just throw them to me."
"No, wait until I have them."
"Okay!"
In the game, Du Thirteen completely considered himself a lackey. He knew his own strength the best, and he was a qualified lackey. He was the type who would light a cigar when the boss picked it up. When the boss's expression changed, he would immediately grab a brick and yell at the monster on the other side of the road, "Kid, don't be arrogant. Do you believe that I won't smack you and let the other readers watch normally?!"
I led Du Thirteen into the forest. Fortunately, the levels of the monsters along the way weren't too high. I could easily deal with monsters under Level 20. Du Thirteen followed me and gained experience.
The quest monster was a Level 17 wolf-headed monster. With Du Thirteen's strength, it would be suicide to fight it alone. However, I only spent 10 seconds to defeat it.
As Du Thirteen cut off the wolf's head, he couldn't stop praising me. "Lu Chen, you're so mighty, so handsome, so sharp. My admiration for you is like a surging river …"
"How about you tell me how you plan on leveling up?" I interrupted him.
"Oh, I'm going to Wild Boar Forest to level up. There are Wild Boars around Level 11 there. Monsters that don't attack on their own will level up faster there."
"Okay, then I'm going to level up by myself. Oh right, have you learned the class skill? Warrior's Rank 10 Heavy Slash?"
"Ah?
Skill … "Du Thirteen's expression was blank." What skill? "
"Fuck!"
I almost vomited blood. I tossed him 10 silver and said, "Go to the city's class center and learn the skill. Then go grind. Buy some potions while you're at it. I'm going to grind by myself."
"Mn, okay!"
After getting his hands on the silver coins, Thirteen left happily with a flushed face.
I shook my head and laughed softly. "No future …"
… …
I returned to Frost Mound and roamed around the graveyard, killing skeletons. Then, I absorbed the undead sparks' energy to replenish my undead body.
An undead mob's stats were 15% higher than a creature's, and their Attack Power and Attack Speed were outstanding. However, their EXP and drop rates were also 15% higher than a creature's. This was a place where the risk was high, but the reward was also high. In a single night, I had obtained 11 Small Magic Stones and sold them for a lot of silver.
At around four in the morning, Du Thirteen sent me a message. He was too tired. He couldn't stand it anymore and went to sleep.
I stood in the Night Creatures' camp at Frost Mound and looked at my level: Lv-18. After a night of hard work, I finally reached Level 18 and entered the Top 100 of Floating Ice City's Heavenly Ranking for the first time. I just happened to be at the 99th place. There were too many leveling maniacs!
In reality, I didn't grind as hard as I could. Instead, I spent a lot of time looking at the map. This time, I didn't want to be too conspicuous. If I wanted to, it wouldn't be a problem for me to reach the Top 10. The first player on the leaderboard was Wind Fantasy again. This person was only Level 20, not too far behind me.
However, my equipment was outstanding, especially my Iron-grade weapon. I believed that in a one-on-one fight, there would be no more than three people in Floating Ice City who could beat me!
After feeling proud for a while, it was time to go offline and rest.
… …
By the time I took off my helmet, it was already 4: 30 am. The sky was beginning to brighten.
I went to the bathroom to wash my face and looked at myself in the mirror. I looked slightly tired. Never mind, I'll take a shower before going to sleep!
As I thought of this, I took off my shirt, only to discover that my arms and back were covered in frightening purplish-red bloodstains. What … are those things?!
I was stunned in an instant. I felt like I had fallen into an ice cave, despair and fear shrouding my heart — livor mortis!
It was livor mortis, a symptom that only corpses would have.
