Slash!
Charge!
Trample!
The Golden Limb, with its hundreds of compound eyes, could see through any target with invisibility below level 2.
Even Qin Feng couldn't escape its detection.
However...
No matter what kind of attack this Gold-level BOSS launched, it couldn't hit Qin Feng!
Compared to the special BOSS like the Golden Ghost Ship, dealing with the Golden Limb was noticeably easier.
Qin Feng dodged those attacks with ease.
Once his skills cooled down, he countered, each time taking out a sixth of the BOSS's health.
In just over a minute...
Under the shocked and incredulous gaze of Gray Rose and her companions...
The Gold-level BOSS actually turned to flee!
But Qin Feng was too fast!
The Golden Limb had only run about two hundred meters into the forest before Qin Feng caught up and completely slew it!
---
[You have killed 'Golden Limb (Lv8 Gold-level)'.]
[You have gained 6400 experience points.]
[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]
[You have gained 497 days of lifespan (tradable).]
---
Before Gray Rose and the others caught up, Qin Feng immediately activated 'Greedy Hand'.
---
[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]
[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]
[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]
[You have gained 497 days of lifespan (tradable).]
[...]
---
A series of system notifications came through, giving Qin Feng a satisfying feeling.
"A single Gold BOSS gave me 28 Evolution Points and nearly 2000 days of tradable lifespan!"
The combined effects of Greedy Hand and Ghostfire Bell allowed Qin Feng to develop much faster than the average player.
As for experience...
Leveling from 9 to 10 only requires ten thousand experience.
But from 10 to 11, it requires a hundred thousand experience.
These 6400 experience points, while substantial, were not enough for Qin Feng to level up...
When Qin Feng checked the loot, his eyes lit up.
---
[Blacklight Shield (Platinum): Assassin skill. Upon activation, converts all dodge rate into a damage-absorbing shield, lasting 8 seconds. Cooldown: 60 seconds. Required Level: 8]
[Conversion Rate: Every 20% dodge converts to 1 layer of damage-absorbing shield!]
(The shield breaks or the duration ends, dodge rate returns to normal!)
---
"This skill book actually dropped?"
"With this skill, many BOSSes can be tackled without taking damage... especially the ones on the Forsaken Gods Continent!"
Qin Feng was quite pleased.
He learned it immediately!
With his current 'Phantom Blur' skill evolved to Epic-level, he passively had a 75% dodge chance.
Using Blacklight Shield would grant him 3 layers of damage-absorbing shield.
This meant that no matter how high the opponent's damage, Qin Feng could negate the first three attacks!
"Not just for BOSS fights, but also for exploring ruins and maps..."
"With this skill, I can even explore many high-level areas ahead of time!"
Without hesitation, Qin Feng spent 1+2+3 points, a total of 6 Evolution Points, to evolve this skill to Epic-level!
---
[Blacklight Shield (Platinum→Epic): Assassin skill. Damage-absorbing shield duration 8→10→12→14 seconds.]
[Conversion Rate: Every 20%→15%→12%→10% dodge converts to 1 layer of damage-absorbing shield!]
---
The Epic-level Blacklight Shield, when used, could convert Qin Feng's 75% dodge into 7 layers of damage-absorbing shield!
"Further evolving Blacklight Shield requires 50 Evolution Points..."
"For now, it's sufficient."
Qin Feng had 22 Evolution Points left.
He first spent 3+5+8, a total of 16 Evolution Points, to evolve Venomous Dart three times.
---
[Venomous Dart (Silver→Emerald): Maximum range 14→17 meters. Adds 120→240 attack upon hit.]
[Venom: Deals 50%→80% continuous damage per second, no weak point bonus, lasts 5 seconds, cannot stack.]
---
Evolving Venomous Dart three times doubled the skill's damage at least!
Since the skill's base cooldown was only 5 seconds, its sustained output was no weaker than Shadow Blink Slash.
"With 6 Evolution Points left, I'll save them for now."
Besides skills, the Golden Limb also dropped two usable pieces of equipment for Qin Feng.
---
[Agility Ring (Platinum): Assassin accessory. Agility +20. Movement speed +20%, attack speed +20%, cooldown speed +20%. Equipment requirement: Level 8]
[Heavy Red Leather Gloves (Gold): Assassin armor. Physical defense +18, all-element resistance +15. Constitution +12, health +588. Equipmentrequirement: Level 6]
---
With the two equipment changes, Qin Feng's cooldown speed reached 55%!
The original 12-second cooldown for Shadow Blink Slash now only took 7.7 seconds!
Additionally, Qin Feng's constitution, defense, andhealth were all higher.
"51 constitution, 106 physical defense, 1517 health points!"
"With these stats, even the Golden Limb's attacks could be taken two or three times without dying."
"As for the previous level 5 Golden Ghost Ship, its half-health full-screen skill couldn't kill me either."
"Moreover, I still have a 75% passive dodge rate."
Qin Feng packed up his backpack.
The few slots in his backpack were now half-filled again...
It was only then that Gray Rose, along with her remaining three teammates, caught up.
Seeing the corpse of the 'Golden Limb' in front of Qin Feng, she felt an indescribable shock!
"A pro is a pro, really soloed this BOSS."
Gray Rose's beautiful eyes showed admiration and anticipation: "So, pro, any equipment or skills I can use? I'll buy some!"
"For a Mage, there's a Gold skill book, Frost Shot."
Qin Feng glanced at his backpack and took out a skill book with an ice-blue cover, displaying it in front of her: "AoE skill, releases ice balls, bounces up to ten times... 800 days, fixed price."
The loot from an 8-level BOSS required usage between levels 6-8.
This Frost Shot skill book was a level 7 skill book.
The higher the level of the skill or equipment, the higher the stats naturally!
The same Gold-level skill, a level 7 Frost Shot, had over 40% more damage than a level 5 Frost Shot.
Of course.
The same skill cannot be learned twice, only a higher level can overwrite a lower level...
"Eight hundred days, that's too expensive..."
Gray Rose had a wry smile.
But looking at the attributes of the skill book Qin Feng took out, she was reluctant to give up. After all, this Frost Shot skill would greatly speed up her leveling!
Facing large groups of small monsters, this skill would cause explosive damage!
Finally, after considering for half a minute, Gray Rose found her teammates again and borrowed their lifespan.
"Eight hundred days, deal!"
---
[You have lost 'Frost Shot (Gold-level skill book)'!]
[You have gained 800 days of lifespan (tradable)!]
---
With the system notification, Qin Feng turned and left.
He planned to return to the town to post a message, buying information on the locations of Silver-level and Gold-level BOSSes.
Silver-level for 30 days, Gold-level for 100 days.
This way, Qin Feng would have a constant stream of BOSSes to kill, maximizing his development speed!
It was only after Qin Feng took down the 'Golden Limb' and sold 'Frost Shot' that he received a private message from Wang Meng.
"What the heck? Qin Xiaoyou wants to give me a Bronze skill book?"
Qin Feng was speechless and directly declined!
Currently, most people speculated that Shadow killed Song Fei.
Given Qin Xiaoyou's personality...
If Qin Feng had killed Song Fei, Qin Xiaoyou would definitely be out for revenge.
But if 'Shadow' killed Song Fei, not only was Qin Xiaoyou not angry, she wanted to give him a skill book?!
Could these double standards be any more obvious?
