Lin Feng leaned on his Wildfire Spear, standing beside the remains of the Bone Eagle King.

His eyes fell on the three items lying quietly in the ashes, his pupils constricting slightly. (PS: ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) It will be explained later that killing monsters above one's level increases the drop rate, while killing monsters below one's level decreases it.)

Two purples and one blue. If any of these three pieces of equipment were taken out, they would be enough to drive all the Awakened in Riverbend Land crazy.

He took a deep breath and reached out to pick up the pair of leather boots glowing with a faint cyan light.

The boots were light, the material like leather yet not leather, warm to the touch, with faint airflow-like patterns flowing along the edges.

【Purple Equipment · windchaser boots】

Quality: Purple (Rare)

Type: Leather Armor · Feet

Equipment Requirements: Agility ≥ 15

【Basic Attributes】

Defense +20

Agility +3

【Passive Effect · Windchaser】

In combat, as long as you move continuously (displacement of more than 3 meters per second), you gain 1 stack of "Windchaser" every 1 second, stacking up to 5 times.

Each stack of "Windchaser" provides +1 Agility.

After stopping movement for more than 1 second, the stacks of Windchaser decay at a rate of 1 stack per second.

【Active Skill · Windbind Slash】

Cooldown: 60 seconds

Consumption: Consumes all current Windchaser stacks

Upon activation, consumes all current Windchaser stacks to slash out an invisible wind blade forward, with a maximum range of 30 meters.

Upon hitting a target:

Deals Consumed Stacks × 20 points of Physical Damage

Inflicts "Wind-Binding" effect: Reduces target's Agility (reduces target's Agility by 1 for each stack consumed), lasting for 3 seconds.

If the consumed stacks reach 5 (max stacks), it additionally causes the target to fall into a brief stiffness for 0.5 seconds.

Lin Feng's gaze swept over the attribute panel, quickly calculating in his mind.

Agility +3, plus moving in combat can stack up to 5 Windchaser effects, with each stack giving +1 Agility—this meant that in intense combat, these boots could provide him with an additional maximum of 8 points of Agility bonus.

And that active skill 【Windbind Slash】, at a full 5 stacks, could deal 100 damage plus 0.5 seconds of stiffness; whether for chasing or interrupting, it was an extremely practical control skill.

He nodded slightly, set the boots aside, and turned his gaze to the second piece of equipment.

【Blue Equipment · rock-solid chestplate】

Quality: Blue (Exquisite)

Type: Leather Armor · Chest

Equipment Requirements: Strength ≥ 12

【Basic Attributes】

Defense +35

Constitution +2

【Passive Effect · Rock Skin】

When attacked by an enemy, there is a 15% probability of triggering the "Rock Skin" effect:

For the next 5 seconds, damage taken is reduced by 20%.

After triggering, it enters a 20-second internal cooldown.

Defense +35, Constitution +2, passive Rock Skin with a 15% chance of 20% damage reduction for 5 seconds.

Unpretentious, but extremely solid. For him, who often needed to face enemies head-on, the value of this chestplate was no less than any flashy special effect.

Finally, his gaze fell on the third item.

It was a thin booklet, its cover pitch black as ink, with faint eerie blue shadows flowing within it like a living thing.

There was no text on the cover, only the silhouette of a dagger and a crescent moon.

Lin Feng picked it up; it felt cold to the touch, as if he were holding a piece of ice.

【Base Bonuses After Class Change】

If the target has not detected you (Stealth state), an additional "Backstab" effect is added: Ignores 30% of the target's defense.

His breath hitched slightly.

Purple Class Change Book.

Rare Class.

He quickly scanned the attribute bonuses—

A total of 100% bonus to the three main stats!

"One hundred percent..." Lin Feng murmured softly, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes. This was definitely a rare class!!!

And those two core skills...

【Shadow Step · Passive】: Extra +10% Agility in shadow environments, automatically Stealths after leaving combat.

【Shadow Step · Active】: 15-second cooldown, instantly cuts behind any enemy within 20 meters, first hit damage +30%, ignores 30% defense if the target hasn't detected you.

Looking at this Class Change Book, a figure instantly appeared in Lin Feng's mind.

That figure that was always hidden in the shadows, taciturn, yet always appearing in the most needed position at the most critical moment.

Shadow Snake.

This Class Change Book was practically tailor-made for her.

Without any hesitation, he carefully put the Class Change Book into his breast pocket.

Then, he quickly took off the tattered leather armor on his body and put on the 【rock-solid chestplate】.

The hard, rocky texture fit his body, and a heavy, steady power surged into him. Constitution +2, his defense instantly increased significantly.

He then put on the 【windchaser boots】. The boots were so light they seemed to have no weight, and there was a faint current of air beneath his feet, making him feel a few points lighter.

The attribute panel quietly updated:

【Constitution: 9 → 11】

【Agility: 17.2 - 1 + 3 → 19.2】 (windchaser boots +3)

【Health: 1240 → 1260】 (Constitution +2)

Lin Feng clenched his fist, feeling the new power surging within him.

Then, he suddenly turned around and looked toward the southeast—the direction where Zhao Hu and the others were before he lured away the Bone Eagle King.

There, the faint roar of battle could be heard. Although it was several kilometers away, that tragic aura seemed to penetrate the jagged Stone Forest and pierce straight into his heart.

He gritted his teeth and suddenly exerted force with his feet!

The special effect of the 【windchaser boots】 was instantly activated—displacement of more than 3 meters per second, and the Windchaser stacks began to build!

1 stack! Speed increased again!

2 stacks! Moving like the wind!

...

5 stacks! Afterimages appeared!

Lin Feng's figure, like a released gale, crazily traversed through the jagged Stone Forest, sprinting toward the battlefield!

Time rewound to twenty minutes ago.

Northwest of Bone Eagle Cliff, the Secondary Battlefield.

When Lin Feng's Blazing Spear Light accurately pierced the Silverwing's left wing, causing the Bone Eagle King to roar and chase toward the northwest, Zhao Hu's heart almost jumped out of his throat.

But he had no time for fear, no time for hesitation.

The Lord had left the hope of life to them and drawn the threat of death to himself.

All he could do was one thing—

Hold the line.

"Form ranks!!!" Zhao Hu's roar was like a thunderclap, echoing on the cliff terrace.

"Beacon Guards core circular formation! Everyone, in position!!!"

Ten Beacon Guards acted instantly, halberd tips pointing outward, quickly forming a circular formation, protecting everyone in the center.

Tie Dun shouldered his giant shield and stood at the very front of the circular formation, with Scarface Liu and A Wang flanking him on the left and right.

Wang Wu and Arrow Eye quickly climbed onto two relatively high rocks behind them, drawing their bows and nocking arrows, aiming at the sky.

Shadow Snake's figure flickered and disappeared into the shadows on the flank of the circular formation.

Su Yurou gripped her short staff tightly, standing in the very center of the circular formation, with those ten silent-as-iron Garrison Soldier beside her.

Everyone completed their battle preparations within three seconds.
