Chapter 694: Cyanlight Bear King (1/2)
I asked, ”What is this ring?”
Beiming Xue raised it and answered my question with a question, ”Doesn’t it look cool, big bro?”
A muscle twitched in my face. ”It looks… okay. What are its stats?”
”Here!”
Beiming Xue waved her hand across the ring, and its stats screen appeared in front of me. Huh, not bad, especially considering that this is a ring; an accessory—
Ring of the Silver Berserk (Purple Gold–grade, Outstanding★★★)
Agility: +132
Stamina: +117
Passive: Increases user's ranged attack power by 15%
Outstanding Property: Berserk, increases user's critical hit rate by 17%, the effect stacks with other bonuses.
Level Requirement: 150
Reputation: 150000
……
I was stunned by the time I finished reading the entire stats screen. This was supposed to be an average ring even with a passive that increased ranged attack power by 15%, but if you took its Outstanding Property into consideration then it was as good as an Earth-grade ring or even a Heaven-grade ring! 17% crit rate was amazing enough, but a stackable 17% crit rate was even more amazing. This one ring made Beiming Xue’s crit rate even more monstrous than before!
Beiming Xue switched on her new ring, checked her new stats and said with a sweet smile on her face, ”Oh, this is wonderful. My total crit rate is now 54.9%...”
My heart shuddered in fear when I heard her comment. Holy shit, that’s over 50%! My own crit rate is less than 25%! There is just no comparison!
Of course, if my crit rate was equal to Beiming Xue, it would be my enemies’ turn to cry foul. There was practically no one I couldn’t kill with that kind of crit rate and Martial God.
After we were done looting the battlefield, I left to aggro a new group of mobs. We shouldn’t waste too much time killing the bears, so I tried to maximize our grind efficiency.
Forty minutes and 4 groups of bears later, a dozen or so top-tier, high-level items—a large majority of them added Tactics as well—were added to my inventory. They were pretty popular in the current market right now.
As for experience, I was now sitting at Level 154, 14%. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I should be able to level up once or twice per day on this map at least. It was exhilarating to say the least!
”Alright, it’s time to kill the boss…” Beiming Xue said while staring at the bear king at the distance. ”Do you want to go first, big bro?”
”Of course.”

Introduction: The Cyanlight Bear King is a ruler of the forest. It possesses incredible strength and physique. Legend says that the Cyanlight Bear King could roll off a cliff from the mountaintop and be completely unharmed after hitting the ground. Countless human adventurers had tried to hunt down the Cyanlight Bear King, but they only managed to become its next meals. Even the famous captain of Ironspear Mercenaries died in its paws. Since then, the mere mention of its name is enough to chill one’s blood.
……
Thud!
The Armored Ice Qilin Horse rammed its head against the Cyanlight Bear King’s and stunned it successfully. It was just a Level 175 Earth Rank boss, so my current Attack and Defense stat were enough to kill it. Also, there was only a 20-level gap between us, and my resistances were pretty good thanks to the Earthfire Realm.
”Use Royal Road, Eve!”
Just in case, I gave He Yi the party leader position and told her to activate Royal Road. A 50% boost to Defense was always useful, especially against a brute boss like this Cyanlight Bear King.
Bang bang bang!
I slashed the boss's chest repeatedly and dealt so much damage that its attention was locked firmly on me. The plan was simple. I would fight as the sole tank with Murong Mingyue as my dedicated healer. It was safer this way, and it kept the demand for skill from everyone else to a minimum.
”Roar roar…”
Humiliated by the human adventurers, the Cyanlight Bear King immediately let out an angry roar and swung its claws three times in a row. However, my Defense was insanely high, and I had Ghost Deity Armor that increased that number even further. Three damage numbers rose above my head in succession—
6829!
6290!
7127!
……
It was an embarrassing amount of damage. I had a whopping 130k HP right now, so its skill only deleted around 15% of my health.
Swhoosh!
