I Only have One Skill, But I Can Put A Hole Through The Planet - Chapter 34

Chapter 34: Zhou Pengtai, in Shambles!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Six… Six pieces of green rank equipment!?

Everyone was at a loss of words!

For a second, Xue Feng even thought that he was hallucinating!

This young man surnamed Su before him had already brought him too many surprises and shock in one day!

First, he fell into a snake pit and survived. Then, he managed to kill two level 15 Bosses all by himself at the low level of 13!

These were Bosses they were talking about, not ordinary monsters!

Then, as if it was not enough, he had even defeated a level 20 [ Thorn Python ] at level 15!

This man, no, this monster before him was full of surprises!

“… Huh?!”

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”

Zhou Pengtai, who had been repeatedly one-upped by Su Chen could no longer hold himself back.

Six pieces?!

How could this brat possibly have gathered six pieces!?

Green rank equipment are supposed to be rare and expensive, not to mention that as players, we need to find equipment that are compatible with our classes!

How did this kid get six pieces despite being only level 13!?

Even I had to spend 800 Gold Coins just to rent these two additional pieces for a day!

Since when did green rank equipment become so cheap!?

“I’ll kill you and send you back to the newbie dungeon!”

After a brief moment of shock, Zhou Pengtai roared with anger once more, and without wasting any more words, he charged forward towards Su Chen with his longsword raised!

Being a level 20 player with his Agility stats, Zhou Pengtai was able to move at breakneck speeds!

He quickly closed in on Su Chen and lashed out with [ Cloud Cleaving Slash ] !

Su Chen faced Zhou Pengtai head on. Naturally, he would not fall to such a lowly and disgraceful sneak attack!

Especially since his opponent had only possessed three pieces of green rank equipment!

“Seeking Plums in the Midst of Snow”!

Su Chen was still equipping the level 10 green rank equipment from before. He had yet to upgrade to the level 15 series just yet.

There was a simple reason behind this. After all, he deemed the upgrade unnecessary for a foe such as Zhou Pengtai. As such, he’d rather just stick with the old gear to avoid reducing his level 15 gears’ durability.

Upon activating “Seeking Plums in the Midst of Snow” and increasing his Agility by 8 points, Su Chen’s speed was clearly higher than Zhou Pengtai’s.

Zhou Pengtai’s stat spread had likely leaned towards Strength or Defense rather than Agility.

Despite missing his attack, Zhou Pengtai gritted his teeth and continued going after Su Chen.

His skill that enhanced normal attack power had not yet run out. Wisps of lightning ran down his longsword, waiting to be unleashed.

“I’ll see how many times you can use your boots’ skill!”

Zhou Pengtai had already planned his moves in advance. Since Su Chen’s skill damage was sky high, all he needed to do was to prevent Su Chen from casting skills. To do so, he would need to constantly interrupt and engage Su Chen in close combat!

603!

71!

After catching up to Su Chen, he finally found an opportunity to hit Su Chen after activating [ Soaring Sword Slash ]

Zhou Pengtai, who had equipped three pieces of green rank equipment, was very satisfied with his damage!

Even though his opponent had three more pieces of green rank equipment than him, the fact that he was still capable of dealing such a huge amount of damage left him overjoyed!

He watched as Su Chen’s HP plunged by half, and he instantly turned giddy with excitement.

“It’s over!”

He activated all the special effects of his equipment and one of his skills that he had yet to activate. A sword aura infused with various elements was launched towards Su Chen!

Should this attack land, Zhou Pengtai would undoubtedly deal close to 800 points of damage!

Zhou Pengtai looked excitedly at Su Chen who was about to be hit by the sword aura.

However, at this moment, Xue Feng, Mu Lin and Mu Long had a strange expression on their faces.

They had a gut feeling that something was off, but they could not put it into words.

“Yes, it’s time to end this.”

Su Chen stared straight down at the sword aura. He did not even bother activating his boots’ ability. Since his opponent was firing a projectile this time and not a melee-ranged ability, Su Chen had ample time to demonstrate his skills.

Su Chen had experienced such attacks several times while fighting Bosses.

Despite looking as if he was in a perilous situation, in reality, Su Chen’s rich experience in movement techniques had allowed him to easily dodge the attack!

Miss!

The next moment.

Su Chen did not even bother to look at Zhou Pengtai’s sudden change in expression. He instantly rushed towards Zhou Pengtai whilst activating “Seeking Plums in the Midst of Snow”.

While doing so, he also started casting [ Fireball ].

With a wave of his staff, a blue streak of light arced across the air.

“Boom!”

Flames instantly engulfed Zhou Pengtai’s entire body!

986!

200!

Half of Zhou Pengtai’s HP Bar, which was as high as 2,100 points, was instantly vaporized!

At first, Zhou Pengtai was surprised that Su Chen had been able to dodge his skills.

The next instant, however, he was suddenly engulfed in flames. He collapsed onto the ground in pain. Although the burning sensation was only temporary, the brief moment that he felt it was still agonizing.

At the same time, upon noticing how much damage he had taken, he finally realized why Su Chen had been able to deal such a high amount of damage against the Thorn Python. There was no other factor aside from Su Chen’s raw power.

There was no such thing as Defense Reduction taking place!

His emotions gradually calmed down.

This was because the possibility of losing had finally dawned on him.

He was going to lose…

He was going to lose to a mere level 15 Mage!

Since all his skills were on cooldown. Zhou Pengtai suddenly lunged forward and constantly swung his longsword at Su Chen to prevent him from casting anymore spells.

“You like to dodge, Huh? Let’s see how you dodge this!”

However, since there was no speed boost granted by skills, Su Chen was able to easily dodge all of his slashes!

Miss!

Miss!

After dodging Zhou Pengtai’s slashes time and time again, Su Chen soon grew tired of toying with him.

Using the final charge of “Seeking Plums in the Midst of Snow” to increase the distance between them so that he would not be interrupted by Zhou Pengtai’s attacks.

“Scram!”

200!

999!

Magnificent flames roared out together with an upgraded [ Lifesteal ].

“!”

Unable to recover his HP in a one-on-one battle, Zhou Pengtai turned into a white light as dispersed into the air, leaving behind a few pieces of Gold Coins … As well as a piece of green rank equipment.

Xue Feng looked pleasantly surprised, but at the same time, there was also a complicated expression on his face..

Ridiculous, simply ridiculous.

Leveling up in [ Ark ] was extremely difficult. It was for this reason that players with higher levels usually had a clear advantage over lower level players. No normal equipment could ever hope to bridge the gap between levels.

As such, Su Chen’s ability to kill a player who was 5 levels ahead of him was truly an incredible feat!

Had Xue Feng been in his shoes, he would think twice before even fighting a level 17 player, let alone a level 20 one.

“Incredible! Simply incredible, Brother Su!”

“Anyway, the two of us siblings are convinced of your ability. Truly.”

After Su Chen had finished picking up the dropped equipment and Gold Coins, Mu Long walked over and said to Su Chen with a smile.

“Indeed, your dodging skills were incredible. Don’t tell me that you’ve learned a dodging skill?”

As a Bowman, Mu Lin was generally frail when it came to melee encounters. As such, having a movement skill would help him greatly against his pursuers in battle.

“No, but I wish I did.”

Su Chen replied calmly.

“Alright, with Brother Su on our side, we no longer have to worry about the boss ahead of us.”

“Let’s go!”

Xue Feng led the party deeper into the [ Thousand Snakes Lair ].

Lying in wait before them was a level 25 Boss that spawned at random timings. Moreover, it had a high item drop rate!

While Su Chen and the others were walking towards the final section of the lair.

A million miles away.

In the Resurrection Temple of Fengwu Town.

Zhou Pengtai, whose level had dropped to level 19, walked out of the temple with an extremely disgruntled expression on his face..
