For the Night Creatures, the Blood Pond of the Great Graveyard was a luxurious feast. Fans liked to watch it too.
I stood at the edge of the pool of wine and meat. I raised my hand and activated Summon Undead. A skinny skeleton immediately crawled out of the blood pool and stood behind me, trembling with fear. It looked like it had sworn to follow its boss to the death.
[Demonic Servant] (Beginner) Level: 5 Attack: 15 ~ 50 Defense: 20 HP: 150 Property: Vanishes when master logs off...
The little skeleton nodded and bowed as he looked at me. I could clearly see the word "trash" written on his forehead. 20 Defense, 50 Attack, and only 150 HP. How could I live like this?
I shook my head helplessly. At this time, the Undead Lord Cyan Rain had already discovered the enemy. Wielding her heavy sword, she pounced over and roared, "Lowly undead, go to hell! Fans of the book like to read:!"
Su Lun howled and charged forward with his sword!
Clang!
Amidst the sound of metal clashing, the two powerful boss-level NPCs clashed. It was clear that Suren, the Great Sword Master, had the upper hand as he sent Green Rain flying with a single slash.
Cyan Rain roared and slid more than ten meters away. He was about to pounce again when a cyan light fell from behind him!
"Pu!"
“217！”
My Slayer Slash landed. Cyan Rain's body shook, and his HP dropped. This was a boss. I didn't want to miss the precious experience and treasure!
"Die!"
Cyan Rain turned around and slashed, the wind sharp!
Crack!
The blade tore through my Defense, and blood sprayed. A huge damage number flew up above my head — 321!
Damn, I was almost one-shot!
At this time, my demonic servant, the little skeleton, showed the value of life, and was chopped into pieces by the boss.
I hurriedly drank a potion. At this time, Su Lun attacked again and fought Cyan Rain. The two bosses fought back and forth, and in the end, Su Lun gained the upper hand. He cut Cyan Rain half to death, and I recovered to full HP. Here we go again!
The edge of the sword was suffused with traces of blood-red. Necromancy energy was concentrated on the blade. Unfortunately, it was only effective against living targets. It was useless against Undead Lords like Qingyu. The other readers were shocked.
Crack!
Another slash, shaving off nearly two hundred of the boss's HP. This time, I was smarter and slid to the side. Instructor Suren blocked the boss's aggro, and by the time the boss's aggro missed, I was already in front of him again. Slayer Slash slashed at Cyan Rain's face again.
"Aooo …"
Qingyu gave a loud shout. Dead!
I dashed forward, my speed far surpassing Suren's. My gaze swept across the area, and in the blink of an eye, all the spoils of war fell into my bag!
The quality of the three Big Magic Stones was 97, 98, and 94 respectively. They were quite high and would definitely fetch a good price.
The Undead Lord also dropped two pieces of equipment. One was a bloody longsword, and the other was a dark cyan cloak. I was overjoyed. The cloak's advantage was that it covered my face. If I wanted to, I could completely hide my face from others. Naturally, they wouldn't know that I was actually a skeleton.
My hands trembled as I excitedly opened the equipment's stats window. The first thing I saw was the bloody longsword. When its stats appeared in front of me, my heart almost went crazy!
[Weeping Fire Blade] (Bronze-grade) Attack: 25 ~ 40, Strength: + 8, Level Requirement: 25...
Bronze-grade, it's actually Bronze-grade!
Hahaha, I'm rich!
Powerful Attack, 40 damage, and an additional 8 Strength. This was definitely a killing weapon at the current stage of the game. My previous Green Blade only had 18 Attack, so it was practically a kitchen knife compared to the Weeping Fire Blade. Even the Green Blade was enough to make many people jealous. If someone knew that this Weeping Fire Blade was in my hands, wouldn't the world fall into chaos?
Overjoyed, I put the Weeping Fire Blade into my bag. It required Level 25, and I had leveled up to Level 22 after killing the boss. I was still 3 levels away. If I could get the Weeping Fire Blade within two days, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. Book fans also loved to read:
Overjoyed, I looked at the blood-colored cloak's stats again. Immediately, I was petrified again — [Cyan Fire Cloak] (Bronze-grade) Defense: 22, Stamina: + 7, Passive: Increases user's dodging rate by 0.5%. Level Requirement: 25...
Fuck!
Another Bronze-grade equipment. This time, I've really hit the jackpot. My defense has reached a terrifying 22 points, and my stamina has increased by 7 points. There's even a special attribute that increases my dodge rate by 0.5%. Although it's not high, it's still an attribute. These two pieces of equipment are very exciting!
I desperately suppressed my joy and put the two items into my bag. Then, I spoke to Suren and completed the quest!
Ding ~!
System Notice: Congratulations, you have completed the quest [Undead Lord?
Cyan Rain]. You have gained 4000 EXP and 100 Reputation!
… …
Swhoosh!
There was a flash of golden light, and I leveled up again. I was now Level 23, two levels away from equipping two pieces of Bronze-grade equipment. Moreover, this was the first time I had entered Floating Ice City's Heavenly Ranking — 1. Wind Fantasy LV 26, class: Light Wanderer 2. Dominating Mage God LV 24, class: Mage 3. Dominating Knight God LV 24, class: Magic Knight 4. Dominating Archer God LV 24, class: Archer 5. Dominating Warrior God LV 24, class: Warrior 6. Hot Sun LV 23, class: Warrior 7. Gui Guzi LV 23, class: Undead Knight 8. Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand LV 23, class: Undead Swordsman 9. Roaming Dragon LV 21, class: Magic Knight 10. Clear Perfume LV 21, class: Archer...
Cool. The Heavenly Ranking is like a public bus to me. I can get on it whenever I want, haha!
Undead Great Swordsman Suren patted my shoulder and gave me an admiring look. "You're strong, kid. Much stronger than the other useless undead!"
I nodded in agreement. At this time, Gui Guzi should be sneezing non-stop, right?
Suren returned to Frost Mound with his sword in hand. I followed him all the way to see if there were any quests I could accept from the sentinels. Leveling up by killing mobs was far slower than leveling up and doing quests at the same time.
After returning to Frost Mound, I sold all the stones I had. My funds increased by leaps and bounds. Finally, I had a huge sum of 1 gold and 41 silver!
I felt a strong sense of accomplishment. I spent 5 silver to open my personal storage at the undead NPC warehouse manager. Then, I put the Weeping Fire Blade and Cyanfire Cloak inside. If I was careless and died outside, I would cry myself to death if I got killed.
I repaired my equipment and bought potions. Everything was ready. It was time to hit Level 25!
I excitedly walked out the door. Suddenly, a person ran out of the blood pool. He was holding a spear and rolling on the ground. It was none other than Gui Guzi. Right now, he only had less than a third of his HP left.
… …
Gui Guzi got beaten up?
I stilled and hurriedly pulled out my sword and rushed over. I shouted, "What's going on?"
Gui Guzi gritted his teeth and got up. He drank a health potion and shouted, "Someone from Floating Ice City has formed a party and said that they're going to massacre all the Night Creatures in Frost Mound. Fuck!
They're here … "
Whoosh!
The branches and leaves in the forest parted. A person rushed out with a spear in hand. A line of words floated above his head: Roaming Dragon!
Mad Dragon!
My eyes turned cold. They came at the right time. Mad Dragon's people were too arrogant. What right did they have to say that they would massacre Frost Mound?
Although Gui Guzi wasn't my friend, Mad Dragon was my enemy. I had no choice but to help!
"It's you!?"
Roaming Dragon couldn't help but let out an angry roar when he saw me charging toward him. He turned around and left. Two warriors appeared behind him, each wielding a white iron sword. Their longswords glowed. It was the Rank 10 Warrior skill, Heavy Slash!
My face darkened. I suddenly stomped on the ground, causing the grass and leaves to fly. My entire body turned into a blur as I drew a perfect Z-curve within three meters. The two warriors' heavy slashes all missed. They looked at each other in dismay, their faces filled with shock. "How … How is this possible? What kind of maneuver is this?"
Crack!
A green blade flashed across the neck of one of the warriors. Then, a green halo appeared. Slayer Slash slashed the head of the other warrior with the force of a mountain.
“274！”
“311！”
With an "ah", the warrior on the left collapsed. The one on the right tried to retreat with low HP. I rushed forward and added another slash. He also died.
Behind me, Gui Guzi's voice came. "Broken Halberd Sinks Into Sand, be careful of assassins. Their assassins are very strong!"
My heart went cold. It's here!
Whoosh!
A sharp light came. It was the Rank 10 skill of assassins — Cold Blade!
In that instant, my body drifted half a step to the right like a falling feather. The energy of Cold Blade rippled in the air and a big MISS appeared!
"Fuck, how is this possible?!"
Mad Dragon's ace assassin, Unyielding Mad Dragon, exclaimed. He was very experienced and quickly retreated. He was very experienced. In a PvP between an assassin and a warrior, if an ambush failed, they had to leave and look for another opportunity. In the early stages of the game, low-level assassins did not have forced stealth, Eviscerate, Shadowstrike, and other skills. If an ambush failed, it meant that the whole team would fail. If they didn't leave, they would die.
I was about to chase after Mad Dragon when I suddenly felt heat on my shoulder. I had been hit by an arrow!
Two Archers appeared at the edge of the forest. They were Level 17 and Level 18 respectively. Although both of them were holding white bows, their attack power was not to be underestimated. More importantly, the Archers added all their points into Agility, so their attack speed was very fast. In a flash, four arrows flew over!
“45！”
“41！”
“27！”
“31！”
The damage numbers jumped. Although my Defense was strong, it could not withstand this kind of torment. After all, there was a limit to my HP. I would die in half a minute at most.
I turned and rushed toward the Frost Mound Sentinel Camp like an arrow released from a bow. Only by asking for help from the NPCs would I be able to survive. Only the heavens knew how many people Mad Dragon had sent. I could fight three alone, and that was probably my limit at this stage.
"That kid escaped, chase after him!" Roaming Dragon waved his spear and began to boost morale.
Two archers immediately chased after me. Players who added their stat points into Agility were faster, so they quickly caught up to me. Gui Guzi ran a dozen or so meters ahead of me, his spear in hand. He looked back and said angrily, "What do we do? Let these bastards destroy our camp?"
"Fuck!"
I snorted coldly and drank a health potion to recover most of my health. Then, I suddenly turned around and shot toward the archer at the very front like lightning. I raised my green blade and used a basic attack and Slayer Slash to form a double combo!
Crack crack!
The sound of a sharp blade tearing through leather armor was especially pleasant. The archer was caught off guard and his entire body froze. Two numbers popped up above his head and he quickly fell to the ground.
I silently charged toward the other archer. My feet slid and stopped, and I changed my speed to circle around him. Two consecutive basic attacks landed on his chest!
“210！”
“224！”
It was another instant kill!
"Beautiful!"
Gui Guzi was shocked and couldn't help but laugh loudly.
Before he finished speaking, a dagger tore through the air. It was an assassin's ambush!
Crack!
“247！”
Cold Blade's damage was very high. Gui Guzi lost a lot of HP in an instant, but he didn't say anything and stabbed with his spear — Flame Thrust!
“274！”
His Attack was not bad, especially against leather-armored classes.
Just one attack was enough to kill the assassin, but Gui Guzi's HP was low. He hurriedly ran toward the sentinel NPC.
I also followed. Roaming Dragon led 7 archers, 5 mages, 3 priests, 1 bard, 1 tactician and 2 wanderers. They were all from the Mad Dragon clan. Damn, this kind of lineup could really dominate an area. At the very least, Gui Guzi and I couldn't deal with them alone.
"Go!"
Roaming Dragon waved his hand and a group of subordinates immediately rushed over.
