Desert island, at the shipwreck.

After a day of hard work, Raging Sea of Blood made the final rush towards Level 5. When the sky became dark, the number of skeletons in the shipwreck increased again. Which was good for him!

A golden light flashed and Raging Sea of Blood finally leveled up to Level 5 and finally obtained the precious reward of Basic Damage +1! The System was very stingy towards increasing a player’s Basic Damage, only increasing it by one per five levels. But even so, with the various attribute increments from the equipment, a player’s damage towards the later part of the game would be very terrifying still, indeed worthy of being called a Hero.

Now, Raging Sea of Blood’s base damage had reached 4-7, and his attack had also offset the six Defense points of the skeletons. Under the extra 40% damage increase from Expert Attack Skill, he could kill the Skeleton Warriors which had five Health Points with one strike each! Previously, because his damage wasn’t enough, he had to kill them with two strikes. And now, the difference between killing one skeleton with one or two strikes was to double his leveling efficiency!

However, he wouldn’t continue killing skeletons now, it was time to go deeper in and see what secret was hidden inside the ship. All kinds of clues suggested that there must definitely be a Necromancer or something which was continuously summoning the skeletons. Therefore, he shall get rid of it first!

Facing the continuous flow of skeletons, Raging Sea of Blood made use of the advantage of having two points of Attack Speed higher than the skeletons, killing them without taking any damage himself! Great! Now he didn’t even need to rest and recover his Health points! This efficiency was more than double compared to before, wasn’t it? Level 5 was really a watershed!

In the narrow pathway of the ship, Raging Sea of Blood killed a path through the mobs and finally reached his target, a room from which the skeletons were continuously coming out from!

Inside, there was indeed a figure covered in a white mist and chanting continuously. Skeletons appeared from a summoning circle behind him continuously! A BOSS!!!

You’re the one I’m looking for, die!

Raging Sea of Blood raised his shield in front of him and charged forward. At the same time, a black glow flashed on the BOSS, and a black ray of light descended onto Raging Sea of Blood from the sky!

—System Message: You have been hit with Spirit Mage’s dark magic “Weakening Curse”, your maximum damage is reduced by two for one day!

Raging Sea of Blood was instantly shocked! His maximum damage was reduced! His damage became 4-5! Luckily, he could still kill the skeletons with one strike even in this case! Raging Sea of Blood killed another skeleton in his path and resolutely carried on charging forward!

A black glow flashed on the BOSS again!

—System Message: You have been hit with the Spirit Mage’s “Painful Torture”, your attack is reduced by six for one day!

Raging Sea of Blood was shocked again! Attack reduced by six! This meant that his Attack was lower than the Defense of the skeletons again! This difference of six points would result in him only being able to deal 85% of his full damage, which was 3.4-4.2! Even with the 40% increase from Expert Attack Skill, it wouldn’t hit five damage!

Just as he was being shocked, he killed another skeleton blocking his path with one strike!

This strengthened his resolve. Charge! As long as he didn’t deal only the minimum damage, he could still kill the skeletons with one strike!

A black glow flashed on the BOSS again!

—System Message: You have been hit with the Spirit Mage’s “Delayment Magic”, your Attack Speed has decreased by 30% for one day!

Raging Sea of Blood scolded. “F*ck you! Are you done yet!”

Currently, his Attack Speed had dropped from 12 points to 8 points, even slower than the skeletons! With a “dang” sound, a skeleton in front of him dealt one damage to him, decreasing his Health Points by one!

After he killed this skeleton and rushed into the room, the BOSS was within his reach now!

—System Message: You have been hit with the Spirit Mage’s “Armor Weakening”, your Defense dropped by four points for one day!

My Defense is very high, I’m not scared of you decreasing it! This BOSS had so many spells that Raging Sea of Blood was already speechless!

At this moment, he finally could see that his BOSS was actually a spirit carrying a Magic Book glowing with black light! As for the spirit itself, it was just a normal spirit! A normal Level 3 unit from the Undead race!

—Spirit: Attack 4, Defense 4, Health Points 16, Damage 2-4, Attack Speed: Normal speed 8, Movement Speed 15, Special Skill: Void Body, Flying-type Troop, Undead.

Raging Sea of Blood finally understood! How was it possible for a BOSS in a beginner’s village to have so many dark magic spells? That Magic Book was the crucial item! As long as he could kill this BOSS, that Magic Book would most likely be dropped! The Magic Book itself contained a high amount of mana in it! It might even be a living thing! It could enable even a normal person to release the spells recorded in it! This kind of treasure actually appeared in a beginner’s village?

Of course, for the trial of a Godly Hero like me, it won’t be strange even if a Godly weapon directly appears!

Excited, Raging Sea of Blood slashed towards the Spirit—”Miss”!

—Novice Guide: Spirits have the Void Body skill, giving it a 50% chance of evading physical and magic attacks! If the first two attacks miss, the third attack will definitely land.

—PU! Raging Sea of Blood directly splatted out blood!

Damn it! Even if I’m hit with all kinds of dark magic, I still have 30 points of Health. It’s enough for me to trade damage and still kill a weakling like you with only 16 points of Health! With another slash, a “-3!” appeared.

This time, you can’t evade anymore, right! 13 more Health to go!

At this moment, another two skeletons came out from the summoning circle and slashed fiercely at Raging Sea of Blood. He took the hits head-on and continued to attack the Spirit!

-4!

Miss!

Miss!

-3!…

The Health points of the Spirit continued to drop and Raging Sea of Blood’s Health points were almost depleted too. When another skeleton came out from the summoning circle, when Raging Sea of Blood’s crucial hit missed again, with only four Health points left, he knew that he couldn’t win anymore. Shouting angrily, he had no choice but to turn and run!

At least his Movement Speed was faster than the skeletons, only the Spirit could catch up to him. But if the Spirit dared to chase after him alone, he would still have a chance to kill it before it killed him since he could still endure another two hits from it with his four Health points!

But in the end, this hope was extinguished. The Spirit Mage didn’t chase out of the room after him.

Just a bit! I’m missing just that little bit! While running, Raging Sea of Blood was so angry that his whole body trembled!

What if I teamed up with that trash, I will definitely be able to kill it, right? This thought only remained in his mind for half a second before he shook it away. Everything on the ship belongs to me, no one else can have even a single share of it! It’s fine if I can’t defeat the Spirit now, it should be enough if I just level up one more time. I just have to continue killing the skeletons on the ship until I level up again, that’s all.

It’s just that it’s really annoying that the dark magic on me will last for an entire day! Other spells are fine, I can just treat it like I’m Level 1 again. The crucial thing is that delaying magic is really too disgusting! My Attack Speed is slower than the skeletons now, meaning I will definitely be hit first! Resting for my Health to recover will waste tons of time, this is really depressing!

But, being depressed is good! The more depressed I am, the more it proofs how valuable the Magic Book is! I’m definitely going to obtain it!

…

At the beach of the deserted island.

After Da Fei swam back to shore, he found the nearest puddle of sea anemones and successfully obtained information with the first hit!

—System Message: You have gained the Demonized Venom Sea Anemone’s incomplete information card!

—Novice Guide: Incomplete information card won’t be able to obtain the full reward from NPCs, please continue fighting to obtain more information.

It’s indeed sea anemone! So this is its name too! This skill is indeed awesome! Da Fei excitedly checked the information card.

—Demonized Venom Sea Anemone:

Biotype: Small-sized plant.

Attack: ?

Defense: 0

Damage: ?

Health Points: 11

Attack Speed: Very slow

Movement Speed: 0

Special Skill: ?

Item Drop: ?

EXP: 10

Brouhaha, my luck is indeed changing! Continue! Da Fei killed dozens of sea anemones again, but nothing happened.

What’s going on? Could it be that because they didn’t have a chance to retaliate, so I’m unable to gain information on their Attack? That’s probably the case. After all, you can’t know how painful a punch is if you haven’t been hit by one.

Why don’t I try getting hit?

No, no, that’s silly! Although judging from its Health and EXP, this is only a Level 2 unit, it’s widely acknowledged that plant-type creatures are very eerie and unable to be measured with common sense. What’s more, Venom is in its name! Can a fragile Pikeman like me withstand its attack?

Also, I’m going to level up to Level 4 soon, I can’t afford dying now. Obtaining information isn’t an urgent thing, leveling up is more important. What’s more, the Reconnaissance Skill level is low, so the sub-skills effect will also be affected. Let’s see what the situation is after I level up first and level up the Reconnaissance Skill to the next level too.

Therefore, Da Fei continued killing the creatures. Finally, a golden light flashed. He leveled up!

—System Message: Congratulations! You have leveled up to Level 4. Health Points +2, Strategy Attribute +1, Skill Point +1, Command Power +1.

Then, he used his skill point to level up the Reconnaissance Skill!

—System Message: You used one Skill Point and learned Intermediate Reconnaissance Skill!

—Intermediate Reconnaissance Skill: Your vision increased by 40%, you can check the number of enemies, morale, and supply information. You have a certain chance of discovering hidden enemies in your range of sight and also gain advance warning of the attack of a discovered hidden enemy, increasing the player’s chance to evade the attack.

Just at this moment—

—System Message: Reconnaissance Skill has detected a powerful enemy hidden nearby, please keep alert!

The legendary hidden BOSS! Da Fei was dazed on the spot! The effect of this Intermediate Reconnaissance Skill has come into effect too fast, hasn’t it?

At this moment, a large red dot continuously blinked on Da Fei’s map, expressing that there was danger in that area! In the eyes of a player with the Reconnaissance Skill, the world was indeed different.

But the problem was, what should he do now? Facing this hidden BOSS, what could a weak Pikeman like he do? But Da Fei shook this thought away after just half a second!

Of course, he should search for it! If he didn’t see the BOSS first, how would he know if he had a chance of defeating it or not? It was just like how he frequently bought the lottery. Although he never won before, as long as he bought it, he would have a one in a few million chances to change his destiny. But if he didn’t buy, he would never have a chance at all!
