40: Chapter 40 SS Talent - Undying Body

A very ordinary mob, no pressure at all.

Starting with Poisoning, he then threw the skill Shuriken.

With a "swish," the dagger in his hand spun toward the Blood Giant.

"-985"

Immediately after, it completed a return attack in mid-air.

"-1235"

Before the Blood Giant could even react, its HP dropped significantly.

He easily caught the returning dagger and charged forward again. He didn't even need Stealth; he just used Ten-Step Kill to engage directly.

"-852"

After the skill damage, a standard 5A-level basic attack combo followed.

"-1022" (Critical Hit)

"-1076" (Critical Hit)

"-1098" (Critical Hit)

...

A total of 5 damage numbers appeared above the Blood Giant's head.

After finishing the full rotation of damage, Lin Feng activated Stealth to enter an invisible state.

Waking up from the paralyzed state, the Blood Giant wanted to counterattack immediately, but couldn't find where its attacker was!

It lowered its head, staring at the five bloody holes that had inexplicably appeared on its body, and couldn't help but freeze.

"What the hell?"

"I didn't even see the guy, and half my life is gone..."

"How am I supposed to play?"

"You tell me, how do I play?"

The Blood Giant growled, its whole body trembling, with a hint of panic in its eyes.

It wanted to run, but couldn't.

Its level was too low, so it could only follow the instincts of a low-level monster and fight to the end.

...

On the other side, Lin Feng, unhurried, hid behind the monster, quietly waiting for his skills to cool down.

It must be said that with his current strength, dealing with mobs not more than 10 levels higher than himself was basically effortless.

Half a minute later,

when his skills were finished cooling down,

he moved like a ghost, charging once again toward the bewildered Blood Giant.

Shuriken!

Ten-Step Kill!

A set of skills instantly wiped out its remaining half of its HP bar!

Before the Blood Giant could even see the enemy's appearance, it let out a muffled grunt, and its massive body slowly collapsed.

[Ding: You killed a 'Blood Giant', gaining 1500 EXP. Killing a monster 5 levels higher grants an additional 450 EXP]

This mob's level was just right for the level-skip condition; not bad luck!

After picking up the dropped gold coins, he casually used 'Hand of God' on the corpse.

---

[Ding! Hand of God +1 trigger check successful! Received extra reward: Holy War Ring]

"?"

"Did I just loot equipment?"

Lin Feng looked surprised. Since he learned 'Hand of God', he had looted at least eight hundred to a thousand monster corpses,

and this was the first time he had looted equipment. It seemed today was destined to be a lucky day.

He opened his backpack to check the equipment. It was a ring shimmering with golden light—

[Holy War Ring] (Bronze Tier)

Grade: Excellent

Stamina: 12

Strength: +12

Required Level: 15

Class Requirement: Warrior, Knight

Set Attribute: ???

...

For a moment, he stared at the equipment several times, and only after confirming he wasn't seeing things did he burst into laughter.

This Holy War Ring was actually Bronze-tier Excellent equipment, and more importantly, it was part of a set. This was a real treasure!

Theoretically, if one collected the whole set, the set attributes would be quite good!

And since this was looted from a mob,

it meant that killing ordinary monsters in this map had a chance to drop other pieces of the set.

Isn't this paradise? Not only were there mobs with rich experience, but there were also set items to be found. It was truly the perfect map for leveling and treasure hunting...

He tossed the Holy War Ring into his backpack and continued moving forward to grind monsters.

Ten minutes later, Lin Feng had cleared over a dozen Blood Giants along the way, but no second piece of equipment dropped. It seemed the drop rate wasn't as high as he had imagined.

Just as he picked up the gold coins from the ground, footsteps were heard at the entrance.

"Brother Feng! I'm here!"

Ye Weiyang had just rushed in, and as soon as he entered the map, he was stunned by the scene before him.

The ground was covered with the corpses of Blood Giants, lying everywhere in a mess.

Looking at Lin Feng, he was crouching over a monster corpse, rummaging around, and Ye Weiyang didn't know what was going on.

Ye Weiyang swallowed hard. "Brother Feng, did you... kill all of these by yourself?"

Lin Feng nodded and said, "To wait for you, I had nothing to do, so I just cleared an area while I was at it."

"Oh right, something good just dropped, take a look."

He shared the attributes of the [Holy War Ring] with Ye Weiyang.

Ye Weiyang took a close look and was instantly unsettled. "A Bronze-tier Excellent set ring?"

Lin Feng laughed, "Do you want it?"

Ye Weiyang froze slightly and smiled bitterly. "Brother Feng, this is a Bronze-tier set item; it's worth at least 500,000, I can't afford it..."

"Think bigger. Why buy it? It's yours. If I get other parts later, I'll give those to you too. Consider it a welcome gift for today."

Lin Feng waved his hand and said casually.

After all, even a full set of Bronze-tier equipment would only fetch a few million at most at the Trading House, even including the set bonus value.

Except for weapons and armor, other parts were worth much less.

And Ye Weiyang had helped him net over 200 million today. A mere few million in equipment—

would he care?

It's peanuts!

Ye Weiyang, standing to the side, heard Lin Feng's words.

He was instantly stunned.

What did he just say?

He wanted to give him this equipment worth hundreds of thousands?

What the...

Is there really such a good person in the world?

Such a charismatic man is truly rare in this world!

Looking at the equipment being traded over,

in this moment, Ye Weiyang was moved! It turned out Brother Feng didn't treat him as an outsider.

"Brother Feng, thank you..."

After Ye Weiyang clicked to confirm receiving the equipment, he cupped his fists heavily in thanks.

"Don't be polite. We're going to be colleagues anyway, and we'll be working together for a long time."

Lin Feng's tone was flat, as if what he had given away was just a trinket.

Ye Weiyang chuckled, seemingly having completely forgotten his furious state from yesterday.

After calming down, he asked, "Brother Feng, are you sure this equipment drops from killing regular mobs?"

Lin Feng chuckled, "I looted it from a corpse, but mobs should drop it too..."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's grind!" Ye Weiyang said excitedly. "I'll pull the monsters, I'll tank!"

"You tank? With your small frame, any random mob could cripple you with a single hit," Lin Feng retorted.

"Brother Feng, I'm also someone with an SS-tier talent, don't underestimate me."

After saying that, Ye Weiyang sent a screenshot of his skill talents to him.

"Oh?"

Lin Feng was surprised. He hadn't expected his honest-looking underling to have such an opportunity. No wonder he was able to rank among the top of the leaderboard in such a short time.

He casually clicked on the screenshot, and as his gaze swept over the talent introduction, he couldn't believe it.
