Chapter 16: The Shot Misfired

Translator: Zayn_

“Awesome!”

He saw a large paragraph of new skill prompt text pop up on the interface.

Lu Qingge couldn’t help but clench his fists excitedly.

That was awesome!

Finally, there was a new skill in his arsenal!

Although [Thundering Stellar Slash] was only an advanced form of [Stellar Slash], this was a qualitative leap.

Lu Qingge felt as if he had learned a brand new skill.

Moreover, the effect of the [Thundering Stellar Slash] was indeed quite good.

Not only did it increase the damage of the light attribute, it also made up for Lu Qingge’s fatal weakness of not having any crowd control skills at this stage.

For Swordsmen, most of the time, it was a job that required close range damage output.

If he didn’t have any crowd-control skills, fighting monsters would really become a very difficult thing.

Without control abilities, it meant that they couldn’t keep the wild monsters in check.

For example, if they encountered some highly mobile creatures like [Iron Beak Bird] or [Poisonous Bee Swarm], that would really be the end of the world.

Moreover…

Other than that, [Thundering Stellar Slash] had another powerful attribute.

That was chain damage.

Although the current AoE damage could only chain up to five targets.

However, at Lu Qingge’s current stage, it was already quite enough.

“Very good.”

“In that case, it’s time to quickly test the power of the new skill!”

Lu Qingge didn’t dawdle anymore and immediately started to act.

Very quickly, he arrived at the familiar place where the slime spawned the most frequently.

It was still the same as always.

When Lu Qingge stepped into this territory, the players who had been farming monsters scattered like birds and beasts.

“As expected…”

“As expected, it’s because of me!”

When he saw the scene in front of him again, Lu Qingge could finally confirm it.

The reason why the players scattered was because of him!

Damn it!

“You really deserve to die!”

On Lu Qingge’s face, a bitter smile unconsciously appeared.

“That’s ridiculous!”

“If it weren’t for the fact that you’re too weak as a LV1 noob, they wouldn’t do this just to take care of you.”

“And let you level up alone in this place!”

Thinking of this…

Lu Qingge’s heart felt as if it had been knocked over, and all kinds of emotions instantly welled up in his heart.

He was inexplicably touched. It was also like a warm current. Lu Qingge’s heart kept surging.

Love, love!

Gran Town!

It was indeed a good place with simple folk customs and talented people!

“In that case, then I must not let down the kindness of these kind-hearted people!”

“I will definitely work harder to kill the monsters to express my gratitude!”

Lu Qingge was once again on high alert.

Very quickly.

Lu Qingge’s gaze locked onto a few [Slimes] that were jumping around him.

He took a deep breath and lowered his center of gravity.

Lu Qingge raised the wooden stick in his hand and assumed the stance of [Thundering Stellar Slash].

In reality, this was because it was essentially an enhanced version of [Stellar Slash].

Therefore, the casting motion of the skill remained the same.

It was just the size and time of the strike would also change according to the character’s various attributes.

For a class like Swordsman, which relied on physical damage, it would be difficult to deal damage.

The higher the Vitality, the greater the strength.

The front and back swings of many skills would be smaller.

This was mainly because of the increase in core strength.

Their ability to control his body would also increase.

On the contrary, the higher the Wizard’s [Intelligence], the smaller the windup.

This was because the casting time had been shortened.

However, it was a pity.

This kind of thing, Lu Qingge had no concept of this at all.

After all, he could not level up and could not obtain attribute points.

Therefore, the source of the increase in attributes was also much less than other players.

Relying on his own hard work and training to increase his Vitality would naturally take a longer time.

For the past half a month, he had been persisting in his strength training at night.

Every day, his muscles were sore.

However, until now, he did not feel any obvious signs of a significant increase in his Vitality.

However, this wasn’t anything strange.

After all, even if it was just the system’s fitness, reaching the point to upgrade his stats would take a while.

Thinking of this, Lu Qingge couldn’t help but feel vexed.

“Damn it!”

“If I had known earlier, I would have squeezed out a few more hours of strength training every day for this year!”

Lu Qingge fell into deep self-blame.

In the past year, he had been so engrossed in [Novice Teaching] that he had never thought about this.

If only he had started training a year earlier, perhaps his Vitality would have already increased by several points.

“Thundering Stellar Slash!”

Lu Qingge shouted in a deep voice and slashed his sword aura at the slime.

Then, he was surprised to find out that the sword energy of the [Thundering Stellar Slash] was actually bluish white.

This special effect was indeed very close to the visible lightning in the atmosphere.

And it was exactly as described by the skill.

Its flying speed was indeed faster than ordinary [Stellar Slash], and its aura was also more fierce!

KRRR!

The sound of thunder exploded in front of Lu Qingge.

“Hiss!”

“So fierce!”

Lu Qingge sucked in a cold breath as he looked at the special effect of the skill.

This skill was so cool!

He loved it!

The only possible flaw was…

He missed.

His slash landed on the trunk of a large tree nearby.

He perfectly avoided the fat slime in front of him.

A swift and fierce lightning sword qi…

In an instant, a charred mark was left on the tree trunk, and white smoke slowly rose.

The sound of the thunder explosion obviously shocked the passing slime.

“Guoooo!”

The slime let out a terrified scream.

It was like a frightened rabbit.

It quickly hopped around and disappeared into the depths of the bushes.

“Tsk…”

“As expected.”

“Compared to the simplest [Stellar Slash], the skill [Thundering Stellar Slash] has a much higher requirement for a Swordsman’s control ability.” Lu Qingge thought.

Just now, when he slashed out the sword energy of the [Thundering Stellar Slash], he could clearly feel it.

The reaction force that was transmitted to his body was much greater than the Stellar Slash.

It was like a gun with a larger caliber and kinetic energy.

The recoil was naturally different.

Lu Qingge sat down on the spot and closed his eyes to think.

“In that case, I’m afraid that just firing the [Thunderous Stellar Energy Slash] won’t be enough.”

“The difficulty of this skill has clearly exceeded the skills that Swordsmen of the same level can master.”

“I still need more practice to be proficient.” Lu Qingge thought to himself.

He picked up the wooden stick and stood up again.

“First of all, at the very least, I have to ensure the accuracy of the sword qi.”

“Otherwise, no matter how high the damage is, it will be useless.”

“So-”

“Let’s start with the simplest fixed target.”

Lu Qingge lowered his center of gravity and stood with his feet shoulder-length apart.

He raised his chin slightly and locked his eyes firmly on the target in front of him.

The black-leafed tree.
