Samsara Online

[Creepy Shadow]

[Level: 18]

[HP: 1800]

[Description: A shadow that disappears after being killed. Don’t expect anything from them!]

(Skills):

[Shadow Movement: Can move freely in the shadows once every 5 seconds]

Before the Creepy Shadow could close the distance between it and Xie Feng, it was hit by a yellow fireball.

-600!

Seeing such high damage Xie Feng was very surprised. This is because the color of the number was normal red, meaning that no critical hits or armor penetration hits occurred.

At the beginning of the game, all players have a small, unfixed chance of hitting critical hits on the enemy. While armor penetration strikes are especially effective on highly defensive Shield Guardians, they are even more effective than critical strikes.

However, this was obviously not the case for the Creepy Shadow.

A few seconds later, something shone in Xie Feng’s mind making him understand the reason behind the increased damage caused. The Creepy Shadow is a dark type monster, while the fire element can be considered the second natural enemy of the dark element after the light element.

Therefore, the damage caused by attacks based on the fire element increased by approximately 100 points.

The Creepy Shadow soon overtook Xie Feng and struck with its claw down. Although he could dodge it, he decided to let himself be hit on purpose to see how much base damage the Creepy Shadow caused, since he didn’t know what he would find further on until he reached the mountain where the little girl and her father are likely to be.

-150

-155

After being hit twice, Xie Feng confirmed that the damage caused by this monster was approximately 150-160 points.

He raised his sword high and cut down.

However-

*Swoosh!*

His attack only hit the air without hitting the target.

Xie Feng looked to his right and saw the Creepy Shadow emerge from the shadows of another tree, charging towards him again.

The Creepy Shadow made a quick move and struck with her claw from the bottom up. However, Xie Feng no longer intended to be hit, so he easily dodged the monster’s attack by taking three small steps to the left, avoiding the attack for a few inches.

Then, he raised his sword and cut again.

-378

Because the Creepy Shadow can only use its shadow movement skill once every five seconds, the physical attack caused the damage normally.

After studying the patterns of this type of monster, learning its weaknesses and strengths, Xie Feng killed it without wasting any more time.

This type of monster is somewhat problematic because its ability to move in the shadows is really annoying. This skill is not too different from teleportation or jumping, learned by mages and priests after their second advance in their profession.

A skill that if used well allows the player to evade critical death damage and even avoid powerful skills.

***

Xie Feng continued to advance and slowly enter the Forest of Shadows.

For about an hour he was killing Creepy Shadows without rest so his experience bar increased a notch and at this rate he will be able to reach level fourteen soon. However, what made Xie Feng furious is that after killing these level 18 monsters, they simply disappear!

At first he didn’t give it much thought, assuming that the monster had disappeared because he had nothing for it. But after killing over 50 Creepy Shadow and getting nothing, he finally realized the cruel reality.

Although he can get experience properly ..... he should stop dreaming of getting any drops from this place.

"Jaaaa... ". Xie Feng breathed a strange sigh as he emptied all the air from his lungs and consoled himself by thinking that, in the Shrine of the Fallen Angel, he couldn’t even get experience, the only exception being the Guardian of Hell.

The Shadow Forest was an incredibly vast territory, so Xie Feng had to disconnect after another two hours to have dinner with Xie Yao and Gu Qianxue.

[Ding!..... You will be disconnected in 10 seconds]

[You have been disconnected]

***

The next day.

[Welcome to Samsara world. Hope you have a happy reincarnation]

After returning from college, Xie Feng got back into the game like every day and continued to move forward to complete the mission entrusted by the middle-aged woman, Yue Qingyu.

As he went deeper into the Shadow Forest, the trees became scarcer and the weeds began to slowly disappear. At first, Xie Feng ignored this, but as time went on he realized that he was reaching the middle or deep regions of the territory.

After another hour of killing Creepy Shadows, the announcement he was waiting for finally reached his ears.

[Ding! .... Level up! You have reached level 14. You have received 5 basic status points, +5 intelligence points, +5 strength points, +5 vitality points, +5 agility points, +20 HP and +20 MP]

[Ding!.... As Emperor of the Wind you receive +1 movement speed!]

Due to his profession, every time he levels up he gets a much stronger increase than a normal player and the more time goes by, the difference between him and those who don’t have a hidden or unique profession will only get bigger and bigger.

Although +1 point of movement speed may not seem like much, ten levels later that single point would accumulate ten times. This means +10 points of movement speed for free, without changing equipment, without losing anything.

Xie Feng continued to advance without stopping but after 20 minutes, the monster in front of him made him frown slightly.

The reason for the frowning is not because the monster is incredibly strong or impossible to defeat, it is because he has not even reached the mountain yet, but as he approached it, he noticed that the number of monsters was increasing.

[Shadowy Skeleton]

[Level: 19]

[HP: 2000]

Description: Having a body of bones, physical attacks cause 20% less damage

(Skills):

[Undead body: 50% immunity to death-type attacks]

Skeleton Claw: Hitting with its bony hand has a 20% chance of inflicting 200% physical damage]

The Shadow Skeleton had resistance to physical attacks due to its bony body. As an undead, it also had a high resistance to death-type attacks.

In addition, the Shadow Skeleton also had a high probability of causing 200% physical damage.

20% may not seem like much compared to 100%, however having a 20% chance of inflicting 200% physical damage means that an average of 1 in 5 attacks would successfully activate the skill.

But the fact that the Shadow Skeleton was stronger than most monsters of its level and is comparable to a level twenty monster is understandable, since generally undead monsters are one of the strongest monsters in the game.

Although it is normal for monsters to become stronger as a player moves away from major cities, Xie Feng could not help but be surprised and feel that something was strange. He had not yet reached his goal but a level 19 monster had appeared in front of him, a player who had just reached level fourteen just a few minutes ago.

Xie Feng threw a Small Fireball towards the Shadow Skeleton that blocked its path causing 470 points of damage and taking almost a quarter of the monster’s health bar.

*Ghazi*

*Ghazi*

*Ghazi*

The sound of the steps of the Shadow Skeleton walking towards Xie Feng echoed through the place, breaking the silence.

Seeing the Shadow Skeleton charging towards him, XIe Feng’s eyes widened and he involuntarily pointed towards the monster and shouted:

"You are too slow!".

That’s right! The Shadow Skeleton was so slow that Xie Feng felt stupid for raising his guard so much. According to one quick estimate, the Shadow Skeleton’s speed of movement was 80 points.

In other words, although the monster was certainly strong for a normal monster, as long as players were careful and had slightly efficient reflexes, they could deal with these skeletons without any problems.

Xie Feng threw three Small Fireballs and a Magic Bullet as he retreated, not letting the Shadowy Skeleton catch him and emptying the monster’s health bar.

Although it took seven seconds for Xie Feng to defeat the monster since the Small Fireball spell has a 2 second cool-down time, he could have defeated it in less time if he fought seriously.

The reason he went to the trouble was to check the monster’s movements and habits before going deeper into the territory. This is a custom that Xie Feng acquired over time, although he is strong and does not underestimate anyone.

Xie Feng picked up the coins dropped by the Shadow Skeleton along with a piece of equipment and casually threw it to the bottom of his inventory without bothering to look at the properties since it was steel-grade equipment.

Without him knowing it, it is precisely these careful calculations that will save his life many times in the future and enable him to succeed in feats that will shock the whole world.
