Chapter 100: Skeleton Cavern's fourth floor

High in the air, the Giant Skeleton revealed a set of white teeth that kept moving up and down, almost as if it was saying something in a skeleton language.  When Ye Tian Xie recklessly got close, it raised its leg which was as tall as Ye Tian Xie and stomped down with a cold pressure above Ye Tian Xie's head.

And in the moment it raised its foot, Ye Tian Xie also stopped in place, then he took a small step back.  ”Hong”, a deep ringing sound showed just how powerful the Giant Skeleton's attack was.  That giant body, that giant strength, but its weakness was very obvious……Seeing the leg that landed half a meter away from him and then didn't immediately move again, Ye Tian Xie made his decision.

Its actions…..were unusually slow.  From the minute it slowly moved forward, Ye Tian Xie was already sure that it wasn't slow in just stepping forward, it was also slow in its attack speed.  The step that the Giant Skeleton took made the entire skeleton road tremble, but then its body stayed still for three seconds…….And in these three seconds, Ye Tian Xie had already run far away.

He charged through the Skeleton Cavern's third floor without any kind of pressure. In the end, he was just too lazy to pay attention to the Giant Skeleton's attacks.  Wherever it stomped, he had already disappeared from without a shadow.  The type of enemy he feared the most were not those with strong attacks, rather, he feared those with fast attack speeds.  On the other hand, enemies with low attack speed and strong attacks, he could easily deal with.  In other words, if he was facing a single Giant Skeleton that was over twenty levels higher, even if he missed nine times out of ten, he was still confident in being able to eventually kill and do it unharmed……Of course, if more than one appears, he could always just escape.

Skeleton Cavern's fourth floor.

The ground underneath him was still made of white bones and the white light seemed to be strangely brighter here.  The minute Ye Tian Xie appeared, he saw skeletons wandering in the distance.  The skeletons here not only gave him a strong pressure, even their outer appearances were several times more eye catching than the skeletons from the previous floors.

Skeleton General: Level 55

There was a glowing bronze helmet on its head and there was a clean red cape hanging from its back.  A fierce glowing bronze armour was covering its body and similar pair of combat boots were on its feet.  In its hand, there was a silver spear with a cold glowing tip.

The skeleton's body was covered in armour and combat boots.  If its skull head wasn't showing, from far away, it would clearly look like a majestic general.

The Skeleton General's aggro range was much higher than the Sword and s.h.i.+eld Skeleton Soldiers (Nonsense, if I couldn't compare to a little soldier, how could I be a general!).  The minute Ye Tian Xie appeared, the three Skeleton Generals turned their bodies at the same time to look at him.  A hostile glow was emitted from their empty eye sockets.

Ta, ta, ta……The combat boots made deep sounds against the floor.  The three Skeleton Generals raised their spears as the rushed at Ye Tian Xie and they way they ran, walked, it was no different from how a normal person acted.

Level fifty five monsters, as long as their long spears touched Ye Tian Xie once, he would be dead beyond compare.

After a player was past level ten, regardless of whether a player was killed by a monster, player, or even NPC, every time the player died, they would lose a level.  They would also drop one-three pieces of equipment (based on probability and luck) and they would lose 1-5% of their gold coins (also based on probability and luck).  All the players that enter «Destiny» know just how hard it is to level and with the death penalty being this brutal, everyone was more careful with their own lives.

Ye Tian Xie definitely wasn't someone that didn't fear death.  Facing these three opponents that could easily kill him, Ye Tian Xie's eyes finally became sharp……this was the beginning of him becoming serious.

”Berserk Fighting Will!”

The low voice brought a trace of anger to this empty s.p.a.ce.  The glow of the Berserk Fighting Will surrounded Ye Tian Xie's body once again……What was truly astonis.h.i.+ng was the fact that from the first floor of the Skeleton Cavern to now, his life had constantly been below 20%.  He had never used any kind of healing potion to heal himself.

What kind of courage, self confidence, and arrogance this was!

And to support this courage, self confidence, and arrogance, how strong would he need to be?

At the same time, even if he were at full health, regardless of the third floor's high attack power Giant Skeletons or these Skeleton Generals, they could all kill him in a single attack.  So the decision to keep his life below 20% so that he could activate the Berserk Fighting Will at any time was indeed the right decision.

After starting the Berserk Fighting Will, what he needed wasn't the 30% increase to attack strength.  Because even with that 30% increase, he couldn't break through the defenses of these level fifty five monsters.  Rather…….He needed that 30% increase to his move speed.
