News about the Abyss Monster

After more than two hours of back-and-forth, Yang Jian finally took down the Sand Crocodile BOSS.

From the beginning, he was chased by the BOSS and could only run, occasionally turning back to shoot an arrow.

Later, he was able to move steadily and kite!

Although his posture wasn't very graceful, he at least started to chip away at the BOSS's health without taking damage.

But no sooner had he gotten familiar with it than the small wild monsters cleared by Old Ma gradually started to respawn.

Yang Jian once again found himself in a frantic situation!

Fortunately, all his attributes were maxed out now, so occasionally getting hit by a wild monster didn't hurt much.

[Talent: Devour (Blue)]

[Description: Devour a blue equipment not higher than your level, inherit all of its attributes, can be stacked infinitely.]

[Cooling Down: Remaining Time: 28:19]

[Upgrade Condition: 23/50 (Only blue equipment counts towards upgrade condition)]

[Current Devoured Attributes: Strength +87, Agility +135, Stamina +76, Attack +2202, Defense +1495, Ranged Attack Power +40, Attack Speed +1, Inventory Slots +78, Arrow Slots +12, Block +580]

Just these extra attributes alone were much higher than other players' base attributes!

So, what if he got hit a couple of times?

With ample room for error, Yang Jian had the confidence to train with Old Ma... So, even though Yang Jian's attack power was maxed out, it still took him over two hours to kill this BOSS.

Yang Jian, having stopped, stood still for a long time, taking deep breaths to calm himself.

Over there, Old Ma walked over leisurely with Mo Song.

Yang Jian looked at Mo Song curiously!

Although the early stage was rushed, he gradually became more at ease later on.

After all, once he got used to the rhythm, he still had some time to goof off.

When he saw Mo Song pick up equipment and then put it into his backpack, he was truly stunned.

"It..."

Yang Jian wanted to ask what was going on with Mo Song, but he didn't know how to start.

"Don't you know Xiao Mo is an Assassin? It seems to be a pure Demon Race, and it even got a job change. You really got a huge bargain..."

Originally, when Old Ma saw Yang Jian's maxed-out talent, high attack, and thick health, he was only pleased to have such an outstanding new star.

But when he saw Mo Song, he really couldn't hold back.

What hunter could withstand such a temptation?

If he hadn't later changed his job to the hidden class 'Sky Archer', and his pet was no longer very useful, he would have really wanted to abduct Mo Song!

"Ahem, no choice, I'm also a Child of Fortune!"

Yang Jian personally went to pick up the drops from the Sand Crocodile.

A Silver BOSS dropped over ten pieces of equipment, six purple and the rest blue, along with many kinds of materials.

Yang Jian gave all the materials Mo Song could use to him.

To save space!

After thinking about it, he ultimately didn't dare to use the 'Designated Acquisition' skill in front of Old Ma!

Talents are gifts from the rules.

Even gods cannot strip mortals of their talents.

But the necklace was different!

Two people on a motorcycle could snatch a necklace... let alone Nathanos Marris, a Divine Archer who had already undergone his second job change?

"I should go! Return to my world, continue fighting the Abyssal Monster, and seek opportunities for a breakthrough!"

"Didn't you win?"

Old Ma gave a bitter smile. Where were the winners?

Once you're up against the Abyssal Monster, it's a lifelong commitment!

"You'll understand later!"

Yang Jian was silent for a moment.

"Where can I fight Abyssal Monster?"

Old Ma, who had just been nonchalantly preparing to mount the griffon, stumbled and almost fell off.

"You... don't tell me, you might really be able to defeat a lone Abyssal Monster very soon!"

Old Ma turned around, circled Yang Jian a few times, and sized him up and down.

"Your current level is still too low. Based on your current strength, you'd need at least level 30 to have a chance against an Abyssal Monster!"

"But they're not that strong!"

"Not strong?"

Old Ma was so exasperated he laughed!

"Let me put it this way: the weakest Abyssal Monster is at least stronger than a Black Iron BOSS of the same level, and that's just a regular monster! Any random small leader's strength is comparable to a Golden BOSS! Their lowest level is 45."

Alright, with that comparison, I understand!

"Under normal circumstances, Goddess Nuwa will leave an opening for the Abyssal Monster to invade the new continent. Most of the time, they will launch attacks from the coastline..."

"Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why leave an opening for the Abyssal Monster to attack?"

"How do you think you got your strength in the outside world? The various great gods created such good leveling conditions for you. After you level up, you just walk away with your strength?"

This... Yang Jian had always wanted to know this question!

But unfortunately, most of the NPCs he encountered now were descendants of the first generation of players, and most of them were descendants of the failed batch.

They should have also integrated with the salvation Continent and no longer had this need!

So they didn't know how to take their strength out... "Is it related to the Abyssal Monster?"

"Yes, it is. Most of the Abyssal Monster are mass-produced by the Abyssal Lords using the souls from various plundered worlds as nourishment in the Soul Furnace on the eighth layer of the abyss!"

"They themselves are a combination of pure energy and powerful physical bodies!"

"So, by killing Abyssal Monster, you can intercept their energy to strengthen your physical body in the outside world, achieving a state of unity with your physical body here, and eventually, after the first job change, they will fuse..."

"Only when you reach that step will these powers truly belong to you!"

So that's how it is. In other words, snatching rule energy from the Abyssal Monster to direct it towards oneself, to achieve inner and outer unity?

"The Abyssal Monster I killed... what's the world's share?"

Old Ma was stunned. This young man is sensible! Back then, I just couldn't understand why the monsters I painstakingly killed had to share benefits with others!

"Thirty-seventy split!"

"How can I only get 70% of the Abyssal Invaders I painstakingly killed?"

"Pfft, 70% is theirs... the Soul Furnace naturally recycles the scattered Abyssal power. The world's rules also leave about 20% of the energy under the premise of fighting the Abyssal Monster, and then you still get to share 30% of that. You should be secretly happy!"

"The gods just watch as 80% of the energy is reclaimed like that?"

"The Abyssal Lords on the other side are also watching!"

"Are there no exceptions?"

When it came to exceptions, Old Ma seemed to think of something and blinked.

He looked up at the newly risen moon.

"As long as you are strong enough, as long as you can withstand the Abyssal Monster's targeting, there will naturally be great gods to protect you!"

Old Ma raised his hand and pointed to the largest bright moon in the sky.

"Moon Goddess Elune was once that exception. She was once so exceptionally talented that she almost single-handedly fought against the Abyssal Monster invading their world. Her talent shocked the gods, attracting the ancient Moon God to personally protect her, intercepting all the Abyssal power! In the end, her world transformed into her divine kingdom, hanging high in the sky!"

This... I'm talking about serious matters with you, and you're telling me myths?

"Since the gods clearly want to fleece the Abyssal Monster, are the Abyssal Monster willing to cooperate?"

"Cooperate! Why not cooperate? Only by entering can there be a chance to start a group battle, and only then can there be a possibility of winning again! Our world... the Northern Lands are almost entirely reoccupied by the Undead Scourge from the forty-fourth layer of the abyss..."

"Then you spend your days drinking and wandering?"

Old Ma gave a bitter smile.

"Who am I? Our world has a dozen demigods and dozens of heroes... I've completely fallen behind. My presence or absence makes little difference!"

"How can it not make a difference? You are a Divine Archer! With a little effort, you can surpass the hero rank and ascend to demigod status!"

Old Ma froze for a moment, walked to the griffon, and swung onto its back.

The griffon flapped its wings twice and ascended into the sky.

Slowly approaching Yang Jian's position, Old Ma threw down a skill book.

"'Tian Mu'! The early time is very precious, we can only train for one day. Next time we meet, when we have ample time, I'll teach you some real skills! Don't die!"

Yang Jian smiled, looking at the griffon that had already turned around, preparing for takeoff.

He shouted up at the sky.

"When our world's passage opens, I'll bring you wine from our world to drink, I guarantee you've never tasted it... And, next time we meet, if you haven't reached the Hero rank, don't say you know me, I can't afford that embarrassment..."

Old Ma didn't look back, he waved his hand, squeezed the griffon's abdomen with his legs, and the griffon accelerated, quickly disappearing from Yang Jian's sight.

It wasn't until the white griffon's silhouette completely vanished that Yang Jian came back to his senses.

He looked at the skill book in his hand.

[Skill Book: Finisher, Killing Arrow]

[Required Level: Level 20]

[Description: Deals 800% attack damage to units with less than 20% health! Cooldown 30 seconds.]

This skill... was very powerful, but for Yang Jian, it was completely useless when fighting small monsters.

However, when fighting BOSSes, it might allow the BOSS to experience what instant death felt like in the future!

Having obtained a new powerful skill, Yang Jian was feeling great!

He felt a thought from Mo Song that it was hungry.

Not bad, to be honest, the telepathy skill was quite useful.

At least now, Yang Jian and Mo Song'stacit agreement (tacit understanding) and communication had made significant progress.

For example, he now knew that Mo Song not only had a censored version of the Assassin class.

But also came with 20 backpack slots and four backpack slots... Isn't this clearly a player template?

I actually managed to catch a wild beast with a player template... It's truly 'awesome'!

So, young Demon Race are beasts, but they can also awaken talents or professions through Awakening Stones... When the salvation game system stops accepting new players, the latecomers on Blue Star will also have to follow this path!

However, professions awakened through Awakening Stones are not only incomplete but also varied, with everything imaginable!

For example, chef, miner, herbalist... When Yang Jian learned this news, he breathed a huge sigh of relief.

So!

You must be a first-generation big shot!

Even if your talent is average, at least your main profession is complete and your sub-professions are comprehensive.

There's also a chance to change your fate against all odds!

In the later stages, when it's purely based on luck, the upward mobility might already be closed off!

If you only awaken a professional skill like [Chef], how are you going to change your fate against all odds?

Make a glowing meal to starve the Abyssal Monster to death?

After reviewing today's harvest, Yang Jian was very satisfied!

The only thing he wasn't satisfied with was that all the purple equipment that dropped was level 20.

Even if his talent upgraded, he couldn't devour them!

He took out a delicious pork chop and fed it to Mo Song; a large piece of meat almost directly filled Mo Song up!

When he came back to his senses, he realized the situation was a bit off.

The sound of crashing waves surrounded him... Looking around, he couldn't help but want to curse.

Don't tell me to send me back to Iron Mine Ridge, you damn well send me back to the shore!

What's the deal with leaving me, a landlubber who can't swim very well, on an island?

If this were a small river, I could at least dog paddle a bit!

This vast ocean, and at night... As he was complaining, he suddenly remembered his druid king ring!

[Skill: Travel Form (Land, Water, Movement Speed increased by 80%)]

Looking at the dark and deep sea, Yang Jian swallowed.

He sent Mo Song back to the pet space, and it didn't show any resistance, obediently disappearing.

Transform, Travel Form.

He extended his right paw and tested the cold night seawater.

Yang Jian closed his eyes, jumped, and splashed into the water!

A full ten minutes later, a clumsy seal finally surfaced, slowly and leisurely beginning to swim towards the distant coastline!

As for what it was doing at the bottom of the sea during those ten minutes?

That's not necessary to know!
