Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As the light from the entrance circulated, he opened his eyes again to a dark valley.
[Current territory: Valley of the Undead. This is a combat area. Please pay attention to your safety.]
[Attention: This area is a public area. Players from other regions may enter. Please treat it with caution.]
‘Players from other regions can come too?’
‘They can cross servers?’
Zhou Han immediately felt that it was interesting.
There should be foreign players in the other areas!
He had to increase his strength as well.
Although he was undoubtedly the first in Zone 666, Zhou Han did not know what the other regions were like.
Therefore, no matter what, increasing his strength was his top priority.
Zhou Han looked at the map. He was now 30 to 40 kilometers away from the Netherworld Swamp.
Moreover, he would pass by many wild monster strongholds along the way. There would definitely be battles.
Hopefully, five hours would be enough.
Soon, Zhou Han encountered the first wild monster stronghold—Skeleton Ridge.
In the mountains, broken corpses could be seen everywhere, and the surroundings were filled with a sinister and decaying aura.
Low roars sounded in Zhou Han’s ears.
[Black Skeleton Armor]
[Grade: Silver]
[Level: 12]
[Life: 1,400]
[Attack: 422]
[Defense: 218]
[Skill 1: Black Armor Protection: Increases defense by 3 times within 1 minute. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]
[Skill 2: Bone Spur Assault: Use hard bone spikes to deal 2.3 times the attack damage to a single enemy. Cooldown: 22 seconds.]
[Description: Extremely powerful defense, recommended to carry armor-piercing equipment. Weaknesses are light and fire.]
The Valley of the Undead was indeed filled with powerful monsters!
He did not expect his first battle to be at the Silver-grade.
Even if the other party had triple the defense, it was only slightly more than 600 points.
Zhou Han’s current attack power was 2,000. Coupled with the various attack bonuses in combat, the black-armored skeletons in front of him was nothing to worry about.
A black-armored skeleton’s skull flickered with a green light.
It sneered cruelly and walked towards Zhou Han with huge bone sticks in its hands.
“Die!”
After using the Intermediate Experience Card, Zhou Han threw out a [Cross Slash].
-30574 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
-34892
He dealt more than 30,000 damage each hit.
A pile of shattered bones fell to the floor.
Immediately after, another [Sky Splitting Slash] killed most of the remaining skeletons.
Then, Zhou Han dealt with the remaining ones using normal attacks. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m
He didn’t waste too much time. After all, EXP buff time was very precious.
[New skill has been unlocked. Please check it!]
Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han guessed that the second skill of the Lin Family Sword Technique had been unlocked.
After all, he had been using the Sky Splitting Slash all this time, so his proficiency was definitely enough.
After opening it, as expected, [Eight Directional Heaven Splitter] was successfully unlocked.
[Eight Directional Heaven Splitter +4: Gather all the strength in your body and slash the ground with your sword. Deals 9 times the damage to enemies within an 8-meter radius. They will be stunned for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds.]
After upgrading, Zhou Han tested it.
Not to mention how powerful it was, simply the image was shocking. The ground was cut open, and the cracks extended in all directions.
Moreover, this skill had a stun effect. It could be said to be very powerful.
Once he was surrounded by many people, he could use this skill to control them very well. The effect would definitely be very good.
After all, he would definitely encounter enemies like assassins in the future. They could easily enter close combat and this skill could prevent their sneak attacks.
After picking up the gold coins that dropped on the ground, Zhou Han continued to set off.
He spent two hours sweeping through all the wild monster strongholds on the route.
Zhou Han heaved a sigh of relief. It was much faster than he had expected.
It would definitely be faster when they got back. After all, it would be less of an obstacle to the wild monsters.
This way, five hours of buff was more than enough.
Now that he had reached Level 14, Zhou Han opened the interface and looked at his attributes.
[Zhou Han]
[Level: 14 (31.5%)]
[Class: Sword Soul (First Awakening at Level 25)]
[Health: 3,200+4,400]
[Attack: 1,040+1,000]
[Defense: 110+300]
[Talent: Infinite Enhancement]
[Title: Famous +3 (Attack +500)]
After reading it, Zhou Han closed the panel in satisfaction.
He was still a long way from Level 25. He still needed to work harder.
The place filled with hazy fog was the destination of this mission—the Netherworld Swamp.
After taking a look, Zhou Han walked in hesitantly.
[You have entered the Netherworld Swamp]
[A large amount of miasma has been detected. You will lose 500 HP per second.]
Hearing the system notification, Zhou Han was a little surprised.
He did not expect the damage of the miasma to be so high at 500 HP per second.
Fortunately, Zhou Han’s act could recover 900 HP per second.
Otherwise, he would really die here today.
The Godfiend Continent was indeed very dangerous. It seemed that he had to be more careful in the future. He could not underestimate any place. Otherwise, he would fail miserably.
Zhou Han’s equipment ignored the terrain and allowed him to move freely around the swamp without affecting his movement speed.
The Netherworld Swamp was very large so Zhou Han searched for a few minutes before he finally found a young girl.
“This should be Xiao Rou!” Zhou Han guessed.
Her appearance resembling an eighteen-year-old suited the old gentleman’s description.
However, the girl was in a very bad state. Her eyes were closed and her lips were black. She was lying motionless on the ground.
‘Don’t tell me she’s dead!’
Zhou Han’s heart was a little heavy. If the other party died, his mission would fail.
All his efforts would go to waste.
“Xiao Rou, are you alright?”
Zhou Han hurriedly leaned over to check on Xiao Rou.
He placed his hand on the side of Xiao Rou’s nose and tested her breathing. It was very weak.
He also checked her pulse and confirmed she was alive.
“Looks like there’s still hope. She’s probably poisoned. We have to find a way to detoxify her.”
After all, they were in the miasma. Not everyone had the equipment to recover health like Zhou Han.
“System, search for information on the Antidote Pill.”
[No information has been found in the chat and trading areas.]
[The purification skills of the Clergyman can cure poison.]
[Killing the Cold Pool Poison Dragon has a certain chance of dropping an Antidote Pill.]
[There’s a small chance of dropping the Antidote Pill after killing the Netherworld Poison Scorpion.]
...
The system gave a lot of information.
It was obviously impossible to become a Clergyman. In addition, the players in this area were not qualified to undergo class change.
The Cold Pool Poison Dragon was too far away. There was no need to consider this.
‘The Netherworld Poison Scorpion?’
Zhou Han happened to discover that the Netherworld Poison Scorpion was a special creature in the Netherworld Swamp.
He immediately saw hope. The odds were slim, but that was all he could do for now.
Then, Zhou Han exchanged the last Heart Protecting Lotus in the trading area for a Health Recovery Pill.
