Skill books were good stuff. They were even more valuable than equipment. Equipment could still be sold if they were not used, but books were gone once they were used. Xiao Liang quickly ran to the Orc Warrior's side and picked up the items dropped by the Boss one by one. He returned to Xing Tian's side and said gloomily,"Boss, we only dropped two skill books. One is Shield Wall, the other is Goblin Guard, and the rest is a bunch of Instant Recovery Potions.”
"What?" Xing Tian hurriedly looked at the skill book. When he realized that it was really Shield Wall and Gnome Protection, he said excitedly,"Brother, your life is too good.”"What's so good about it? It didn't drop any equipment.”Xiao Liang said foolishly.
" Silly brother," Xing Tian said." This Shield Wall can't even be exchanged for 10 pieces of Level 10 Gold Equipment."”
"Ah, so precious." Xiao Liang said in surprise.
"Of course," Xing Tian was really excited today.
[Shield Wall: Reduces all damage received by 40% for 8 seconds. Cooldown: 4 minutes.] This skill was a god-like defensive skill. Even if a Warrior reached level 200 in the future, when they fought a Boss in a team battle, they would still have to use this skill that could be learned at level 0. This was because it could reduce the damage of the Boss by 40%. Even if the Boss went berserk, they could still withstand the Boss's attack.
A Defensive Warrior could only be considered a qualified Defensive Warrior if he had Shield Wall. In the later stages of the game, when players learned about the skill Shield Wall, unspecialized players would team up to raid dungeons. If a Defensive Warrior did not have Shield Wall, no one would be able to team up. As a result, in the later stages of the game, the price of a Level 0 Skill Book like Shield Wall had risen to 50 gold coins.
However, the drop rate of Shield Wall was extremely low. The drop locations of the skill books in Real World were limited, and many dungeons did not drop skill books. They could only be found in a few specific places or by killing top-tier wild Bosses. As a result, many defensive players had already reached Level 50 and learned high-level skills, but they still did not have this Shield Wall skill book.
"Quickly learn it. With this skill, I will dare to bring you into all kinds of difficult dungeons. When the time comes, you can choose any Gold equipment you want.”Xing Tian said.
"Oh." Xiao Liang hurriedly learned the skill book. A golden light lit up as Xiao Liang learned the Shield Wall skill.
"Boss, what is the other skill book, Gnome's Protection, for?”Xiao Liang asked curiously.
"This is a Priest's skill. It can increase the Earth Defense of everyone in the team. It can be considered an early stage godly skill. You won't be able to use this book, so I'll take it first.”Xing Tian placed the skill book in his backpack.
"Oh." Xing Tian looked at the monsters on his left and right. There were still 100 to 200 Orcs in the cave hall, all gathered on the right side of the hall.
"Brother, I'm going out to do a quest. You stay here alone and fight the monsters. Just follow the method I taught you. Use your bow and arrow to lure the monsters and then poison them.”Xing Tian said. The bow and arrow were dropped by the Hunter who had killed Black Blood's subordinate. It was just an ordinary Bronze equipment.
"Boss, let me help you." Xiao Liang was almost level 6, so he spoke with confidence. " If you want to help me, you should level up as soon as possible," Xing Tian said." You can't level up faster than me by yourself. You can only help me if you reach Level 10 earlier."”
"Oh, okay." Xiao Liang was full of energy now that he had a goal.
After seeing that Xiao Liang had no problems luring the monsters twice, Xing Tian finally relaxed and charged out of the cave by himself. When he returned to the Orc Hills, the sky outside had already darkened. Xing Tian ran towards the west side of the map under the cover of the night. There was a forest on the west side of the Orc Hills, where a group of Trolls lived. Xing Tian's mission was to kill the leader of the Forest Trolls, Shaman Watkins.
However, Trolls were not so easy to kill. As the most difficult monster to kill in a Level 15 map, Trolls not only had the body of a Half-Orc, but also the agility of a Werewolf. Moreover, Trolls had the fastest HP recovery speed among Level 15 monsters. It would be very difficult for Xing Tian to kill even the ordinary Trolls among them. Fortunately, Xing Tian had his own methods. When they arrived at the edge of the Giant Demon Forest, Xing Tian began to slow down. Under the night sky, it was even harder to find the existence of the Giant Demons in the forest.
Like the orcs, the trolls had green skin and protruding fangs. However, the trolls were very muscular and had well-defined eight-pack abs. They were also very slender, with red hair and beard. They held spears in their hands.
The reason why Xing Tian dared to come to the Troll Forest alone at Level 7 was because the Trolls here only knew how to throw spears. All the Trolls were long-range monsters. In this Troll Forest, as long as Xing Tian dodged properly, he could kill the Trolls without losing a drop of HP.
However, that was during the day. At night, Xing Tian could not find where the Troll was hiding, nor could he see the direction in which the Troll was throwing the spear. Therefore, Xing Tian stayed where he was and waited until dawn. When he was bored, Xing Tian started a voice chat with Blue Feather. At this time, Blue Feather was staring at the first boss in the dungeon in a daze. He pressed the answer button and asked.
"What?"
"How's your dungeon going?”Xing Tian asked.
"I've hung up three times." Lan Yu said gloomily.
Xing Tian couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Lan Yu became even more depressed and said angrily,"You're still laughing."
" Ah, sorry, sorry," Xing Tian hurriedly said." I couldn't help it for a moment. Did you guys die when the Boss's HP was only 30% left?"”
"How did you know?" Lan Yu asked in surprise.
Xing Tian thought to himself,'Of course I know, because the boss of this dungeon is the nightmare of all players in the novice stage. In my previous life, many elite players from big guilds did not know how to fight the boss of the first stage. They thought that they could beat it with 30% of their health left and improved their fighting style. In the end, they were wiped out overnight.'
"You guys don't need to think of a way. There's no other way for us to pass this stage. We can only rely on our own equipment to take it head-on. If our defense is less than 71 points, we definitely won't stand a chance.”Xing Tian said.
The calculation of damage in Real World was very complicated. It was not something that could be explained in a simple sentence or two. It involved a series of things such as basic defense, attack, defense, and damage. For novice players like Blue Feather and the others, the only thing Xing Tian could explain was that their defense was not enough for 71 points.
"Alright, I'll go persuade Sister Yuwei and tell them what you said. I hope they will listen."”The little girl sighed in the end. Even Xing Tian could imagine how the little girl looked like at this moment.
"Go ahead." Xing Tian said.
