Chapter 36 - Hazard Gno
After leaving the Deathly Forest, Shi Feng’s party rushed towards Dark Moon Valley without rest.
At the current stage of the ga, many players had already risen to Level 2. Aside from raiding the Dungeon at the Deathly Forest, they would stay in Brook Hills to kill Level 2 Cheetah Cubs. Only a few experts would go to the Level 4 area, Dark Moon Valley, to level up. However, along with the increase in player levels, it wouldn’t be long before Dark Moon Valley would beco occupied.
After spending over half an hour returning to Dark Moon Valley, the scene they t with was the sa as what Shi Feng expected.
A few Elite parties who were uninterested in the Dungeon were currently killing Level 4 Kobolds that were wandering around the outer parts of the valley. These Elite parties were quite skilled. They lured two or three monsters each ti, with the Shield warrior tanking in front and preventing the Kobolds from closing in on their mage and healer. The healer was continuously healing from behind, barely maintaining the Shield Warrior’s HP.
Although it was taxing to grind in such a way, the gains from the fight were equally good. The three Kobolds had dropped 2 Coppers and so stone materials.
In God’s Domain, only monsters Level 3 and above would drop skill books and Bronze Equipnt. Although the chance was only ten thousand to one, it was still enough to cause players to go on wild goose chases. Currently, Bronze Equipnt was very valuable; even more so were skill books. With these enticents here, there would be many experts who would co forth, even if there was so danger involved.
After taking a few glances, Shi Feng turned and left towards the inner parts of the Dark Moon Valley.
The other party mbers who were new to the Dark Moon Valley were very nervous. It was especially true when they saw the Level 4 monsters scattered throughout the entire area. Their breaths beca slightly hurried. However, Blackie was extrely calm when he saw these Level 4 Kobolds. After all, he had previously killed hundreds of them. He did not seem panicked, unlike the other party mbers. He simply followed Shi Feng, entering the deeper regions of the valley.
As for the Elite parties, they could not help but be shocked when they saw Shi Feng’s party enter deep into the valley. They had never imagined the newcor party would have such courage.
There were very few players currently present in Dark Moon Valley. It had yet to be completely developed, so there were a lot of Kobolds in the middle of the valley. The deeper one headed towards the center, the greater the number of Kobolds. There would even be groups that consisted of ten or more Kobolds. Grinding monsters there was just too dangerous. The lowest number of Kobolds they had to face was at least four or five. It was not worth risking an unwarranted death.
Unfortunately, these people did not know Shi Feng was more insane than they previously thought.
Shi Feng did not just enter the deeper regions of the valley. Instead, he went towards the core of the Dark Moon Valley. There was a good location to grind monsters there. Not only was there a large number of monsters, but their respawn rate was quick as well. Most importantly, the drop rate there for ore was high.
Regarding understanding, Shi Feng was like the local god of the area when it ca to the Dark Moon Valley. Be it the location of the monsters, the number of monsters available, or their respawn ti, Shi Feng had spent countless hours researching in his previous life. His goal at that ti was to increase the grinding speed of his party, all to improve his position within Shadow.
Life was truly fascinating. Shi Feng’s sacrifice towards Shadow in his previous life had currently turned around to help himself instead. It could increase his own party’s level more quickly, while at the sa ti guaranteeing him a steady supply of ore.
Moving along the path of broken rocks, groups of four or five Level 4 Kobolds would occasionally appear. However, it was just a small matter with the equipnt of Shi Feng’s party.
Looking at the party’s Guardian Knight, Cola, be it with HP or Defense, he could easily tank four Kobolds at the sa ti. The healer, Drowsy Sloth, could maintain Cola’s HP above 80% without wasting much effort. If Cola had let a monster past, then Lonely Snow would go up and push it back. As for the others, they would fervently deal damage. A simple sword strike from Shi Feng could already deal over a hundred damage, whereas Blackie’s Dark Arrows could each deal 88 damage. The fight could not get any easier than this.
Within monts, the five Kobolds were all dealt with. Compared to the Elite party outside, Shi Feng’s party was stronger by several folds.
Shi Feng simply picked up the stone materials and ore that dropped, then continuing deeper into the Dark Moon Valley.
After spending over an hour moving forward, Shi Feng’s party had finally arrived in front of a mountain. The massive mountain was hundreds of ters in height. Kobolds no longer filled the area surrounding the mountain; Wandering Gnos had replaced them. These Wandering Gnos each held a small shovel in their hands, using it to dig into the rock wall of the mountain. There were also quite a few Gno Overseers that inspected the surrounding areas with a whip in hand.
“Brother Feng, the monsters here are just too nurous. Are we really going to grind here?”
Blackie’s heart shook slightly when he took a look around. He discovered hundreds of Wandering Gnos around the vast mountain. There was even a few Level 5 Gno Overseers. Compared to the groups of over ten Kobolds outside, this place was a literal battlefield.
Cola also gulped down a mouthful of saliva, worriedly saying, “Party leader, I’m not trying to boast, but tanking six or seven of them is my limit. I really can’t manage this many monsters.”
It wasn’t just Blackie or Cola. The others, as well, were apprehensive. Wandering Gnos occupied the entire mountain, and these Gnos were very close to each other. As long as they made a mistake while luring, then they would have to face-off against hundreds of Level 4 monsters. Such a large number of monsters was much scarier than the Lord-rank Felt.
“I know you guys can’t fend all of them off. However, who ever said about letting any of you tank hundreds of Gnos?” Shi Feng rolled his eyes at his party mbers. He was extrely clear regarding the party’s standards. Facing off against ten Gnos at the sa ti was nearly their limit, so how could they deal with hundreds at the sa ti?
Even a Level 10 player would be finished when t with hundreds if Level 4 monsters.
However, wasn’t there a good saying that stated: “if you can’t outfight them, outrun them”?
Shi Feng’s Agility had reached 30 points. Including the Bronze Shoes he had, his Movent Speed had exceeded the Wandering Gnos by at least 4 points. He could easily kite the Gnos and let Blackie use the AOE skill, Hell Fla. The efficiency of grinding in such a way was several tis greater than that of killing individually.
Following which, Shi Feng told everyone about his plan. He needed Blackie to get the timing right, maximizing the effect of Hell Fla. As for the others, they were responsible for taking out the Gnos with low HP.
When Shi Feng had chosen his position, he grabbed a handful of stones and rushed towards the nearby Gno Overseer.
Just as Shi Feng approached the 20-yard distance, the Overseer had started yelling loudly. Its screams attracted the attention of many of the surrounding Wandering Gnos. Shi Feng waited first for a mont, avoiding the whip of the Gno Overseer and allowing the Wandering Gnos to continuously gather.
When about 30 Gnos had gathered, Shi Feng turned around and ran in the opposite direction. Afterward, he threw a small stone that struck another Gno Overseer. The Overseer who was struck loudly bellowed, bringing along over twenty of its brethren and rushing at Shi Feng.
Within monts, Shi Feng had lured over sixty monsters. However, Shi Feng was not yet satisfied. He started circling the mountain as he lured monsters, and within five minutes, there were hundreds of Wandering Gnos and more than ten Gno Overseers chasing behind him with all their might.
Unfortunately for them, Shi Feng’s equipnt was just too good. His speed was 30% greater when compared to the Gnos. Including Shi Feng’s extraordinary techniques and control over his body, he was able to toy with the Gnos whichever way he wanted.
“Blackie, get ready to cast,” Shi Feng reminded.
“Alright.” Blackie was extrely excited. This was his first ti using AOE magic, so he did not know what kind of effects it would have.
Subsequently, Blackie’s fingers started gesturing in midair. Brilliant magical seals started appearing, forming into a dazzling magic circle that gave off a peerless aura.
As Blackie spat out the last syllable, the land shook. Jade green flas rushed to the sky, devouring the entire Gno army. A field of damages over a hundred had appeared. Within five seconds, every Gno chasing after Shi Feng received over two hundred damage, their remaining HP less than half.
However, the target of these Gnos had also changed. They no longer went after Shi Feng, but Blackie instead.
Shi Feng abruptly stopped. He pulled out the Abyssal Blade and rushed forward.
Thundering Flash!
Not only did the Level 4 Thundering Flash have a low Cooldown, but its attack range also increased to 15 by 3 yards. It had nearly covered the entire Gno army.
Three streaks of thunder flew past the Gno army, creating three damages of over 120 points to every Gno. The attack had completely devoured the remaining HP of the Gnos. As for the low HP ones that remained, they were quickly held back by Cola. Lonely Snow then rushed forward and used a Whirlwind Slash, thoroughly ending the remaining Gnos.
The hundreds of Gnos had been wiped out, leaving behind a floor covered with items.
anwhile, everyone’s experience madly rose. EXP of over ten points appeared one after the other, dazzling everyone’s eyes.
Hua! Blackie had risen to Level 3.
“This is too aweso!” Blackie roared in exhilaration.
“This is only the beginning. They will still respawn in a mont.” Shi Feng laughed, “Let’s quickly pick up the drops.”
Suddenly, everyone started busying themselves. Even with six people retrieving the drops, the loot of hundreds of Gnos still required them to spend a lot of ti doing so.
However, monts after they started collecting, a Gno that piloted a gigantic robot suddenly appeared. The Gno’s face was crimson red. It imdiately rushed towards Shi Feng’s party with unparalleled rage.
“Not good! It’s the Hazard Gno! Everyone spread out!” Shi Feng shouted the mont he laid eyes on the gigantic robot.
