Chapter 28 – The Four Arts (2/2)
Defense: ???
HP: ???
Abilities: ???
Description: An undead hunter, occupying the cold forest in the wilderness. They are humans that lost their life, relying on the weak-minded dead spirits to hang on to life. They will slaughter any intruder that steps into their territory mercilessly. Ba Hang City has posted numerous bounty posters, but no one has dared to collect their heads…
……
It was quite the problem charging in without knowing its attack and defense, and disadvantages with the level gap was quite big. Seemed like tackling this would be a headache. But, according to rumors, killing a monster that was at least 5 levels above you granted increased drop rates and extra experience gain, but only applied if you soloed it, like me; a party wouldn’t receive an experience bonus.
Seeing Bobo dancing and flying on my shoulder, I smiled a bit. Yep, I would use this guy to hunt this zombie while training my own his level. If all went well, there would be no problem at all.
“Charge!”
I pointed with my sword, and with a Sha sound Bobo rushed forward, as quick as lightning. Damn, that was the result of 4.5 agility and 97% excellence. The beauty of high agility!
Buzzzzzz…
I thought the buzz was very annoying at first, but now it was like music to my ears. Bobo’s stinger lit up and with a golden hexagrams, stung the chest of the Zombie. With the attack, the tattered leather armor got ripped away. With the pieces of armor, some of the rotten flesh of the zombie also fell off. With just one combo, the zombie had already lost a huge chunk of its health——
138!
120!
141!
Despite the level difference, (the monster is level 27 and Bobo is level 15) for Bobo to deal this kind of damage was unbelievable..
Ooooooooo…
The hunter raised his crossbow, and fired an arrow at Bobo. With a Pa, the arrow landed with a sickening crunch. Instantly, a large portion of Bobo’s health dropped——
254!
I stared at it, as if I could feel the attack falling on myself instead of Baby Bobo, and quickly waved my hand to cast [Heal]. That quickly pulled Bobo’s health back up, and at the same time, I drew my sword, and [Turmoil Sword] automatically activated. I struck thrice, and followed up with a [Hemostasis] for Bobo. With our harmonious attacks, we would be undefeatable throughout the world!
After being attacked by me and Bobo, the zombie finally fell with a cry. It died!
Sha!
A golden stream of light fell over Bobo. My own experience had increased significantly and Bobo leveled up to 16! I put all of its points into strength. Anyways, killing monsters with a higher level was indeed more efficient.
……
Our duo continued forward, and after nearly 2 hours of hunting, I had made 47 silver coins! Wow, what a fortune!
During this time, my level also rose to level 23, and Bobo to level 20. His leveling was pretty fast, and his attributes had risen significantly as well——
[Baby Bobo] (Bee Overlord)
Level: 20
Attack: 271-388
Defense: 194
Health: 485
Magic: 194
Abilities: [Combo LV-2] [Stinger LV-2]
Excellence: 97%
System Note: The equations for the attributes for Bee Overlord after level 20
Attack = LV * 10 * (0.97 + 1)
Defense = LV * 5 * (0.97 + 1)
HP = LV * 12.5 * (0.97 + 1)
AP = LV * 5 * (0.97 + 1)
……
Baby Bobo’s attack of 388 would probably be a hack-level attack at this stage in the game. In addition, his 194 points of defense weren’t too far off from some of the weaker monks’ defense, and 485 HP was enough so that Bobo wouldn’t get insta-killed by same level monsters. Mm, I thought this was pretty good!
With Baby Bobo, a name that would fill anyone with warmth, we continued to cut through the forest. In the distance, I saw some snow laying on the ground. We had finally reached the colder areas! The map declared: Attention! You have entered the [Chilling Wind Forest]!
Involuntarily, a chill spread over my body. I was finally here, [Chilling Wind Forest]!
