Brandon hid behind the rock and remained still for a few seconds, returning to his invisible state.

He walked up to the giant brown bear again, raised his dagger, and stabbed fiercely.

[You have hit the target’s vital point (head), causing 146 critical hit damage!]

This time, Brandon did not use his second slash.

Instant step!

He once again hid behind that rock.

Brandon silently chanted in his heart, “3! 2! 1!”

At the same time that he chanted the word ‘1’, a furious roar rang out, and the giant brown bear was once again startled awake!

Brandon secretly turned his head to look. The bear stood at over three meters tall. It was like a small brown mountain. Coupled with its sinister and gloomy face, it made him shudder in fear.

The giant brown bear was very angry!

It was in a bad mood as it was woken up from a deep sleep twice.

But once again, it did not see any creatures around.

Everything in front of it was the same as before.

It was angry and confused.

Yet there was no place for it to vent its anger and this made it even angrier.

It walked around in exasperation, roaring as it searched for clues, but it still found nothing.

Finally, after searching around for a while, it reluctantly went back.

What it didn’t know was that behind the rock, Brandon was there, but he just couldn’t be seen.

It only took two seconds to enter the invisible state.

The giant brown bear wouldn’t be able to catch Brandon unless it was awake and noticed him instantly.

Meanwhile, Brandon was elated.

He had found a new way of attacking — harassment!

Using the combination of infinite invisibility and instant step, he could repeatedly pull himself away so that the enemy would not be able to catch him.

Whittling down the opponent’s HP was very effective against enemies like the giant brown bear, which could not be controlled for long periods of time and had very high HP.

Moreover, repeated harassment would also easily enrage the enemy.

Although it was a game, monsters did not have patience.

They did not begin to recover their HP after leaving the battle.

The recovery of HP was slow.

This was something that he had keenly noticed after the first attack.

Because of his observation, the harassment tactic could be established.

“Even if your HP is as high as 800, I can still grind you to death!”

After returning to invisibility, Brandon once again walked towards the giant brown bear’s position.

He wanted to carry out his strategy to the end.

However, this time, just as he was about three meters away from the giant brown bear, the giant brown bear suddenly raised its head and stared forward with its small eyes like a knife. This made Brandon jump.

He thought that he had been discovered.

However, he soon realized that he was thinking too much.

The giant brown bear’s knife-like eyes instantly softened and became confused.

“Didn’t they say that bears are stupid?”

“This monster is playing dirty tricks!”

This changed Brandon’s view of the monsters.

In the escape game, even if monsters were not as intelligent as humans, they could not be underestimated.

He waited quietly.

The giant brown bear raised its head and looked around. After confirming that there was no one around, it retracted its head again.

This time, Brandon safely moved in front of the giant brown bear.

He raised his dagger and stabbed!

[You have struck the target’s vital point (head), causing 146 critical hit damage!]

Instant step!

The third execution of the plan was successful!

“Roar!!!”

The giant brown bear almost jumped up from its sleeping position.

This time, it was completely enraged.

After staying still for two seconds, Brandon, who had returned to his invisible state, could even feel the ground trembling slightly because of the brown bear’s anger.

The surrounding environment was almost completely destroyed by the furious giant brown bear.

After venting for a few minutes, it was still angry.

This time, it did not sleep!

It just sat there. Its small eyes were like a radar, constantly scanning the surroundings.

However, just by looking with its eyes, it could not find Brandon.

Since the giant brown bear was patrolling the surroundings, Brandon turned and quietly went behind the giant brown bear. He raised his dagger and stabbed with force!

[You have hit the target’s vital point (back), causing 146 critical damage!]

Instant step!

“Roar!!!”

No matter how strong a creature was, the eyes and back were always the most vulnerable areas.

The giant brown bear suddenly stopped attacking and jumped three yards high.

Its wails could be heard within a half-mile radius.

It was the fourth time!

The giant brown bear’s small eyes were red, like an inferno. It vowed to find that person.

But at this time, Brandon had turned invisible again. He went around the back of the giant brown bear and did the same thing.

Just like that.

The giant brown bear was angered by Brandon’s harassing tactics, but it couldn’t do anything to him. It could only hammer the ground in frustration.

In the end, the giant brown bear fell heavily to the ground with a final unwillingness.

Until its death, it didn’t see who was harassing it!

Brandon looked at the giant brown bear’s corpse falling to the ground and turning into a soul tomb. His heart was extremely happy.

He excitedly opened the soul tomb.

The first thing that entered his eyes was a skill book!

That’s great!

Another skill book!

His luck today was also SSS-class!

Brandon checked the details.

]

[Do you wish to learn this skill (only effective in this game)?]

[Yes] [No]

Upon seeing this skill, Brandon was overjoyed.

“This skill will make me even better at harrassment…”

“The ‘poison’ and the ‘harassing’ tactics are simply perfect for each other!”

“Learn the skill!”

[You have learned the skill ‘poison’!]

After some slight adjustments, Brandon opened the map and marked the monsters closest to him.

At the same time, he also noticed that in the past few minutes, another six people had been eliminated.

The remaining number of people had dropped to 50.

Brandon’s heart tightened.

“Clear out all the monsters here, then start hunting the others. It’s time to increase your attributes.”

…

On the other side of the map.

In a resource area.

The hooked-nosed man, Jack, and the burly man, Gareth, were speaking and planning. “Hey, Gareth, that Brandon guy just left a monster’s place,” Jack said.

“Looks like our target this time is not weak.”

Gareth sneered, “He’s just clearing wild monsters. The two of us have killed four of them, and our attributes have broken through 30. He’s wearing blue equipment. Even if he’s strong, there’s only one outcome for him!”

The hooked-nosed man obviously did not think much of Brandon, and said, “Let’s let him live a little longer first.”

“Let’s go! To the next resource area!”
