66 The Shadow Assassin Part 2 (2/2)
”I don't know if this will give a lot of damage but at least I can show you some surprise like how you did earlier, motherf*cker.”
And with that, I point the muzzle of the gun to the surprised Shadow Assassin and pulled the trigger.
BANG!
The Shadow Assassin's face exploded when the bullet pierces. I was not sure if the damage is big but I saw the body of the Shadow Assassin fell to the ground and slowly disintegrate. I will be used to it if the enemy is a normal mob but I am confused. Did I just kill it that easily?
The remaining zombies are still a threat so I killed them all. The fight was very easy after the main threat that the Shadow Assassin possess disappeared. It was really anticlimactic but I am not sure what happened. The single bullet I shot earlier is not enough to cause an Instant Kill and I am quite sure that I can't instant kill the Shadow Assassin without knowing it's weakness. I don't even know its traits so how would I be able to kill it?
After killing all the zombies, a notification appeared in my interface all of a sudden.
[You have completed the secret Challenge Quest (Kill the Assassin). As a reward for the quest, you can choose to activate one of the five effects for the duration of the Dungeon diving.]
1. Increase the drop rates and gold earned from killing monsters to 100%.
2. Skill Cooldowns are removed.
3. Experience gained and Skill mastery is increased to 100%.
4. The defense of all enemies are reduced to 100% and they will have 50% less attack power.
5. Clearing this difficulty will also clear the remaining difficulty of this dungeon that is left uncleared. (Rewards and first clear of the other difficulties will also be carried along.)
Uh? Secret Challenge Quest? That is the first time I heard of that. There is no such thing in my past timeline before, is this also one of the few changes that appeared? Never mind that, the most important thing is the reward of the Secret Challenge Quest! This is quite the reward I have seen so far! However, I can only select one. It was like a starting perk but you can only select one. I was tempted to get all of them but I can't be too greedy.
All of them are good but the last one catches my attention. A perk that will allow me to mark the next difficulties as cleared and all the rewards for clearing the corresponding difficulties can also be obtained? Isn't that convenient for my situation? I really don't have much need for the experience and items obtained in the harder difficulties. I just needed to obtain the first clear other than that, there is no need for me to get it.
On the other hand, the others are all good too. The 2nd perk is quite good, having a no cooldown skill allows me to spam a lot of skills without a problem. But then, I decided to weigh down the benefits on the perks. All of them are good but there are two perks that really marked as something I will consider getting, the 2nd option and the 5th option.
It was quite hard for me to decided but since time is running, I decided to use the most convenient of all. If I want to steal the first clear from that guy, then I have to choose this perk. Although I am hesitating, I clicked the 5th option. The benefits of the 5th option outweigh the benefits you can get on the 2nd option since the second option will only be useful in this dungeon and after that, I will be struggling in the next difficulty. With this perk, I will easily cheese out everything. Stealing the first clear of the Abyss difficulty without clearing it, that has a nice ring to it.
