Chapter 458: Chasing special effect
4 pm in the afternoon.
The final batch of Ice Swordsmen fell under our feet. At this point, we had completed around 70% of the map. I looked down and we were already at the top half of the ice tree. We were high above and I felt a little afraid of the heights. The wind was blowing strongly and it was quite terrifying. If we fell, unless one knew how to fly, if not one would fly to death.
…
Further forwards, the sound of wings flapping could be heard from the veil of snow. We walked forwards towards the birds chirping and one could see the huge birds covered in green feathers. Each one of them was five meters long when they opened their wings and they had three heads. They looked very fierce.
“Your turn, look at the stats?”
Lin Xi smiled.
“Okay.”
I walked forwards and sucked in a deep breath. Shifang Flame Spiral Eye red the birds’ stats and shared it with Lin Xi–
Three Headed Bone-eater Bird (Legacy Monster)
Level: 115
Magic Attack: 15000-17800
Defence: 11500
Health: 2200000
Skill: Flames, Frost, Storm
Introduction: Three Headed Bone-eater Bird, a living being that existed since ancient times. They have the really strong flying ability and have the ablity to control three elements. Legend has it that they have the bloodline of Dafeng and they are really cruel. It was said that they once descended into the human world and killed them, consuming their bones. They caused a huge tribulation. Now they are on the ice tree, protecting the little master in the nest.
…
“Red monster!”
I sucked in a deep breath and said, “They are magic-type monsters, they are a problem. At least they will be for you.”
“Yea.”
We are Hosted Nov3l, find us on g00gle.
Lin Xi licked her red lips and smiled, “Magic against heavy armor, that would deal 30% extra damage.
They can also summon three types of elements, so… You lead the charge and I will damage. With your attack and lifesteal, you would be able to hold on right?”
“Probably? I don’t have much confidence either.”
I frowned and said, “Do you think I saw Legacy Grade monsters before? This is my first time too…”
I laughed, “Okay, you attack, I will follow up.”
“En.”
Right ahead, three Three Headed Bone-eater Birds circled and guarded the steps. We definitely wouldn’t be able to pass if we didn’t deal with them. I sunk down and charged forwards with Soul Star Explosion. Dark Shadow Jump activated and I used Staggering Blow to stun one. Then I used Flames of Karma+Annihilation+Hunter’s Edge on the second.
“Chirp chirp~~”
The bird retaliated and clawed my wrist to deal 8000+ damage. But this was not the strongest one. In the next second, its three heads opened their mouths and they were each filled with the elemental powers of fire, ice and wind. “Peng peng peng”, they exploded towards me like three cannons!
“38811!”
“40189!”
“37818!”
…
Too painful! A Boss’s attacks would probably deal as much damage right!
In this instance, I retreated and used Gouge to interrupt the attack of the third bird. I dealt a series of attacks and healed for a portion. At that moment, Lin Xi flashed across and used Assault to stun one of them and helped to tank some of the damage.
“Chirp chirp~~”
The bird shook and its magic power stored up. Its heads started to light up with different colors and it was about to use its skill again!
“Shua!”
Lin Xi thrust her sword forwards and it was covered in ice. Along with her beautiful looks, she was dazzling. One Ice Sealing Slash and the bird was sealed. She then dealt a series of attacks. Double Hit+Wind Chasing Stab+Flame Blade Thrust, this was a perfect combo of attacks.
“As expected.”
Lin Xi frowned, “We probably can’t handle three Three Headed Bone-eater Birds at once, we need to work together to do so.”
“Yes!”
My hands didn’t stop and my daggers continued to attack, dealing streaks of damage.
“Lu Li.”
Lin Xi beside me dealt damage while looking at mine, “That shouldn’t be it. With your ability, your damage should be higher. Show me your daggers’ stats.”
“Ah? Okay…”
I showed her Seven Star Blade and Heartstealer. She was stunned. She was probably shocked by the Legacy Grade equipment Seven Star Blade. She smiled, “Do you think your daggers are good?”
_ Support us at h+sted novel _
“Not bad!”
I smiled, “Seven Star Blade primary attack, Heartstealer to support. One damage and one armor breaking, that is perfect.”
“That makes sense but that is because you have many skills and they are strong, but… As for overall damage, I think your understanding is slightly weaker.”
“Oh, how so?”
She killed monsters while looking forwards with her eyes, “An Assassin’s energy is not unlimited and over 70% of the time they will be using basic attacks. You should know that right?”
“En, over 50% of my damage is from basic attack, naturally I know about that.”
“So.”
She smiled, “You shouldn’t focus on high damage and functional daggers. So when you find equipment, you should find Damage Chasing Type weapons or accessories.
“Damage Chasing type?”
I was stunned, “What does that mean, I don’t really understand.”
She covered her forehead, “You really…”
I smiled awkwardly, “What do you mean, what does Damage Chasing type mean?”
“Things are like this.”
She said, “Special effects like 50% chance of triggering a 200% flame damage when attacking. These are the types of Damage Chasing effects. Think about it, if your daggers all have such effects, your basic attack would have added 100% chance of triggering 100% extra damage. Your basic attacks deal 50% of your damage which means that your overall damage can increase by 150%. Your damage would be totally different from before.”
I understood, “Oh… So that is what it means.”
“Yes!”
Lin Xi looked at me and smiled, “i thought that July Wildfire would know about this, so you are a noob that didn’t know at all… Mundane Slaughter and Moonlight Firefly didn’t talk to you about this?”
“Nope, they probably think that I am super strong and they have no right to say anything…”
“Hehe…”
She smiled, “That is okay, I will remind you.”
“Eh ah…”
For some reason, my heart felt warm. The feeling of an itch that couldn’t be scratched disappeared.
Lin Xi continued, “Currently the country recognizes two top Assassins. One is you. Everyone recognises your PVP and PVE ability. The other is the top Assassin in the last season Fushen Thousand Blade. During the last season, Fushen Thousand Blade’s daggers had four Attack Chasing effects along with one on his necklace. With his attacks, even Yanshi Bugong and Fengxian suffered.”
“En!”
I nodded, “When I choose equipment I will pay more attention. I will try to choose strong Attack Chasing gear, don’t worry.”
“Good~~”
She smiled gently, “No rush, equipment needs to be obtained one by one. Shen Mingxuan, Ruyi and I will help you too.”
“En!”
I nodded, “Right, I remember… There is also a skill book…”
“Wooden Dummy?”
She smiled, “Is it?”
“Yes.”
My face flushed red, “I have been thinking about it, you also didn’t sell that book so I wasn’t able to get it.”
“because…”
She licked her lips and looked towards the storm, “That is because I have been saving it for you!”
“Ah?”
My body shook, “You suspected my identity since then?”
“En.” She nodded, “More accurately, a few days before Wooden Dummy was dropped, I suspected that you were July Wildfire.”
She looked at me and said, “Lu Li, do you know? I had been waiting for you to admit it but you didn’t. In the end, what I got was an insulting screenshot. At that time, I felt like my heart was being ripped apart…”
“I am sorry…”
I frowned, “Actually, that screenshot isn’t full, I scolded Ah Fei after. Little Qian was just angry, so…”
“It has already passed.”
She smiled, “I trust you, I also trust that you won’t treat me like that.”
“En!”
I nodded my head, “So did you bring Wooden Dummy?”
“Nope, if I did I would have let you learn it. “
She facepalmed, “I woke up a little later and came online after Shen Mingxuan shoved me some bread and milk so I forget about it… If you learned it, our chances of beating the Boss would be much higher!”
“Might not.”
I pointed forwards, “Look, the ice is three feet tall here and nothing is growing. Wooden Dummy needs grass to be activated.”
“That’s true…”
She smiled, “Okay, continue to kill the monsters, there are so many Three Headed Bone-eater Birds so who knows how long we will take.”
“En!”
…
Thus, the two of us continued to run in the huge storm and cleared the steps one by one. During that period, we faced many dangers as the Three Headed Bone-eater Birds were just too strong and they could threaten our lives.
