Samsara Online-Chapter 375 Extreme danger and Ling Long falls. Enraged Xie Feng. Burn again Green Flame! (3-Last)
Even as he advanced, Xie Feng was paying attention to the movements of the army of beasts running after him as well as Ling Long. The first moment she was surrounded or in trouble, he would immediately assist her. After all, although Ling Long's speed was 650 points when she made use of her Instant Flap skill, if she was surrounded she would not even have the chance to move as she would not have enough space to make brilliant use of her high speed.
However, when he witnessed Ling Long's final damage, Xie Feng almost fell and drowned in the ocean.
The Emperor-grade sea horse let out a cry of pain before collapsing onto the ocean waves and never standing up again.
Xie Feng sucked in a breath of cold air as his eyes were lost in the six-digit black figure that slowly ascended into the sky before slowly disappearing.
Instant Death!
The reason Xie Feng was so surprised was because the probability of the effect activating against high-ranked monsters was too low!
Ling Long's Annihilation Claw skill and Xie Feng's Ring of the God of Destruction both possessed a 5% probability of triggering the instant death effect. However, that 5% was only effective against normal monsters.
The higher the enemy's rank, the chances began to plummet. This was for obvious reasons; the higher the rank, the higher the resistance against the effect. The only way to trigger the instant death effect at all times was when the effect reached 100% probability, ignoring all differences. But for something like that to happen... It was as difficult as ascending to heaven, if not impossible to achieve.
After all, the instant death effect was by far the most horrifying effect of all video games. If a player could have a 100% probability of killing his or her enemy with a single attack, then that player could be invincible even if he or she was level 0 against another level 100 player.
Because Xie Feng could kill his enemies with one or two attacks, the times that the ring's instant death effect activated were about a thousand times since he started playing Samsara Online. A thousand might seem like a lot, but considering that he had killed tens of thousands and even hundreds of thousands of monsters to reach his current level, it was too pathetic.
However, right in front of his eyes, the terrifying instant death effect was successfully activated, taking the enemy's 700,000 health points with a single swing of Ling Long's claws.
[Ding!... You have leveled up. You have reached level 26. You get 5 stat points, +20 HP, +20 MP, +5 Vitality, +5 Strength, +5 Intelligence, +5 Agility, +1 Movement Speed].
[Ding!... Your pet Ling Long has leveled up. Your pet has reached level 26. +100 HP, +100 MP, +25 Physical Attack Power, +25 Magic Attack Power, +10 Defense, +10 Accuracy, +2 Evasion].
After gaining the experience of an Emperor level 30 boss, his experience bar, which hadn't moved much since a week ago, filled up completely in one jump and there was even a little extra.
"Nice!" Xie Feng couldn't help but praise Ling Long and give her a thumbs up, to which she responded with an excited flapping of her little wings followed by an Explosive Fist, directly slaying another monster.
Xie Feng rummaged through his inventory a bit and pulled out the other two pieces of equipment that he had obtained when he killed the Thousand Ice Cocatrix but couldn't use due to the level requirement.
[Jade Ice Bracelet: Gold Grade Equipment -
[Description: An exquisite bracelet of deep blue color and soft to the touch. Protects the skin against the heat of the sun.
[Requirement: Level 26
[Attributes: Water Resistance +10% / Intelligence +30 / Vitality +30 / Agility +15]
[Frozen Bone Pants: Gold Grade Equipment -
[Description: Keeps the lower body always in optimal condition, ignoring high temperatures to a certain extent.
[Requirement: Level 26
[Attributes: Fire Resistance +15% / HP +300 / Defense +60 / Agility +20
[(Unique Skill):
[Heat Negation: An aura-like skill that invokes the power of ice to ward off heat. [Effect: For ten seconds, you gain an extra 15% fire resistance. It has a cooldown of 60 minutes]
Although it was only one level, the difference between him at level 26 and him at level 25 was simply huge.
Leaving aside the elemental resistances, he obtained a total of 600 health points. 90 points of defense, 60 points of magic damage, 600 points of mana, and 35 points of agility. The change was too great not to be noticed.
According to the old map, by going five kilometers further from the coast into the ocean, there should be some noticeable change. Currently, Xie Feng had already broken the three thousand meter barrier, and very soon he would be able to reach five thousand meters.
With his current speed, even without using any skills to boost his own movement speed, it was only a matter of a few minutes before he reached the designated place. Things were much simpler for him now that there were no monsters constantly coming out trying to stop him.
As Xie Feng basked in the momentum of power, the horde of giant beasts frantically chased after him relentlessly; it was as if they would not stop until they saw his corpse. However, unlike before, things were not so easy for the beasts either.
A small, dark-colored silhouette flickered through the crowd. Occasionally it would stop, a reddish glow would flash swiftly and a creature would fall, never to rise again. When the rest of the nearby monsters reacted and tried to attack, that small dark silhouette would disappear and the next instant it would appear over another pitiful monster.
If these monsters had any intelligence, they would probably be praying that the little dragon would not pick them off the next moment.
Unfortunately, Ling Long's Instant Flap skill consumed too much MP, so every few intervals of time, she had no choice but to return to Xie Feng's side after remembering his previous words. Only after he gave her a bigger mana potion or an Evil Spirit Leaf could she once again unleash a one-sided massacre.
"Finally!" Xie Feng exclaimed joyfully as he saw the waters swirling right in front of him.
He was currently at the four thousand five hundred meter mark and from his place, he could see the turbulent waters shaking slightly and the monsters behind him began to roar even more ferociously as they chased after him with bloodshot eyes.
Just when Xie Feng's guard had dropped ever so slightly, a sense of deadly crisis enveloped him. His body shuddered slightly and his first reaction was to turn around to look behind him.
There, Ling Long seemed to sense danger as well since her movements stalled for a brief second.
BOOM!
The waters shook furiously and several waves over five hundred meters high rose into the skies. From amidst the wild waves, a flash of what appeared to be a sharp slash shot out, cutting the waves in half.
With that attack, a thousand of the monsters in front of the horde were immediately annihilated without even being able to let out a sound before their death.
When the waves settled and fell noisily into the ocean, there was a large patch of water that was now free but previously filled with monsters.
A few meters away, a white sphere of light could be seen enveloping Xie Feng.
The Pearl of Light had the automatic protection function in its skill Bright Light Barrier. However, this automatic system only worked once every 48 hours. The reason why the Pearl of Light automatically activated the defensive barrier was because Xie Feng had not done it first, and that attack was enough to kill him countless times.
Xie Feng did not react and stared dazedly at the scene in front of him.
Previously, he could easily have deployed a defensive barrier to protect himself. But his senses were overwhelmed when he realized something extremely cruel.
Ling Long, who was hunting monsters a few meters away, was engulfed by the earlier attack. After all, she was only moving among the beasts rushing ahead of them all so that she could get to Xie Feng faster when her mana reserves dropped.
[Ding!... Your pet Ling Long has died. Level -1].
"You filthy human! How dare you barge into my Sea Imperial Family's sacred territory!"
A young but arrogance-filled voice echoed from the sea.
All the beasts shuddered and growled slightly without daring to move in the slightest. However, Xie Feng ignored that voice completely, his mind in chaos.
Ever since he and Ling Long had embarked on this long journey in the Samsara world, the two of them had become each other's best friend and Xie Feng truly cherished her like a little sister. He had even taken the trouble to teach her how to speak step by step... However, right in front of his eyes, his beloved comrade had died.
Although the consequences of dying were nothing serious, only the loss of a level, although Ling Long could be immediately summoned again, it was a great shock to Xie Feng.
It was precisely for this reason that he could not even activate a defensive barrier of his own free will and if it were not for the Pearl of Light, he would already be dead and his level would have dropped to 0.
Xie Feng knew that he could not defeat the enemy blocking his path... At least, not with normal means.
Therefore, he could only use drastic means.
As his body shuddered and anger threatened to consume him, his gaze fell on a skill he had only used once so far.
Green Flame! It was time for his most horrifying skill to burn again!
