Samsara Online Chapter 65 Storm Night (1)

A/N: Important change: From now on bronze grade items do not need to be identified. Only silver grade or higher.

***************************************

Xie Feng was about to continue hunting monsters when he saw a flash of golden light s.h.i.+ning in the distance.

A kangaroo of the same size but with longer arms and more powerful legs appeared. The kangaroo seemed to know that Xie Feng was sweeping through the territory of its own kind because when it saw him it immediately rushed towards him.

[Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader: BOSS]

[Grade: 3 SUNS]

[Level: 15]

[HP: 8000]

[Note: The leader of the Kangaroo Kickers. Is much stronger and dangerous. It attacks immediately when it sees any intruder within its territory. Appears after many of his own kind are killed over a short period of time.]

(Skills):

[Double Hit: Attacks with both legs at the same time in a single second, causing twice the normal damage. Has a greater chance of causing critical impact.]

[Combination: Expert in boxing. Fists have a 30% chance of knocking out the opponent for 2 seconds.]

The Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader raised its fist with a red glove and punched Xie Feng.

Xie Feng quickly took two steps back and while backing up threw a small fireball into the Boss's face.

After retreating successfully avoiding the boss' attack and while casting a magic spell, Xie Feng also made a 360 degree turn cutting diagonally with his sword.

-460

-370

The difference between each attack was only 0.1 seconds even while he was dodging, attacking with his sword and casting a magic spell. Three completely different things at the same time with almost no time delay.

While attacking, Xie Feng dodged the counterattack of the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader, retreating from the attack range of its legs.

Only a second later, Xie Feng launched another physical and magical attack while dodging the next attack from the Boss.

-367

The Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader attacks mainly with its front legs, however Xie Feng was fighting monsters of his species for three full hours so there was no way he could be hit so easily after a.n.a.lyzing and getting used to the same attack so many times.

Although the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader is much stronger than the Kangaroo Kickers, the legs were more powerful and the arms were long enough to attack with punches, the method of attack did not change much. Naturally, this is from Xie Feng's point of view.

In reality the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader was extremely strong and a team of over 20 players of level fifteen or above is needed to defeat it.

Xie Feng controlled the distance between him and the boss carefully. He retreated and attacked, taking care to maintain the correct distance between the legs of the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader and the while controlling the distance of the sword attack in his left hand.

Although Xie Feng cannot move freely in the virtual world due to obvious limitations such as speed of movement, he can a.n.a.lyze his enemies' attacks at terrifying speed and prepare against measures at the same time.

In the world of virtual games, the speed of movement was a very important statistic. Not only did it affect how fast a person could travel, it also had an effect on the effective control of a battle. Especially in the face of a strong enemy, this "important" became "very important". The speed of rapid movement not only affected dodging skills, but also allowed one to escape safely in the face of strong enemies. Of all the professions, a.s.sa.s.sin was the profession with the highest speed of movement. It allowed them to dodge perfectly to compensate for their lack of HP. Sneak attacks, guerrilla warfare, distractions and escape were all advantages they had.

And Xie Feng's reflexes were far beyond that of normal a.s.sa.s.sins and he could perfectly use speed of movement to control the gap between him and the monsters. This is the reason why in the past he always chose the a.s.sa.s.sin cla.s.s because it was the one he was most comfortable with.

Because the Archers complained so strongly in the forum, the disadvantage that if a player enters a range of three meters they would not be able to attack was removed. However, in return they lost the free movement speed boost given by the system.

(((A/N: For those who forgot, this was explained in chapter 16.)))

From Xie Feng's point of view, those people are simply brainless people. When a hand-to-hand fighter enters a ten-foot range, the Archers' arrows stop causing so much damage because they don't have the time to get enough boost. Still, these brainless people only thought of quick wins instead of waiting patiently.

Perhaps Xie Feng himself didn't notice, but with his high focus, each of his attacks was clearly faster compared to normal players, since even if players can attack once per second, they generally always lose several fractions of essential seconds. Each time he attacked, he left only a small opening, without giving the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader any opportunity to counterattack.

Only nine seconds after the start of the fight, the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader gave a long cry of pain and with the momentum of its next punch in progress fell to the ground with all its health points empty.

While still in the Beginner's Village, Xie Feng fought a Lord BOSS with 7000 health points and to defeat it, he had to fight with extreme concentration for almost ten minutes. Now, however, he has just defeated a 3 SUN BOSS with 8000 health points in less than ten seconds.

He could defeat it in even less time if he uses Tornado and Dark Lightning, however Xie Feng prefers not to rely too much on skills like those. Dark Lightning has a cool-down time of two minutes and Tornado only attacks forward, but does not protect his back or sides. Therefore, he prefers to train to get his body and brain in perfect sync between a.n.a.lysis and reaction.

Although a Lord BOSS has more dangerous abilities than a 3 SUN BOSS, Xie Feng is very clear after this battle that his increased strength can only be described as terrifying.

A few silver coins, several potions and something with a slight copper glow fell from the body of the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader.

[Combat gloves]

[Equipment grade: Bronze]

[Equipment Requirements: Hand-to-Hand Combat Profession / Level 15]

[Equipment properties: Physical Attack +20 / STR +10]

[Description: A heavy but powerful pair of gloves]

Xie Feng kept the pair of gloves in the inventory with an impotent expression. Thanks to his more than 20 lucky points after adding the Creator of Myth t.i.tle, the drop obtained by him is naturally higher than normal even without considering the fact that he is defeating only higher level monsters, and a boss at that.

After overcoming the Despair mode in the Beginner's Village completely, Xie Feng believes that he has the best quality equipment in the whole Chinese server. However, what left him defenseless is that he can't use any of it at the moment because his level is insufficient. Therefore, he could only watch as bronze, silver and gold equipment shone in his inventory as if mocking him.

As he sighed in resignation, Xie Feng squatted and used gather in the body of the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader.

[Ding!..... You have successfully gathered kangaroo meat]

[Kangaroo meat: The meat of the Kangaroo Kicker and Boxer Leader is nutritious for the body but be careful with your teeth! Effect: Eating reduces hunger by 50 points].

[Ding!..... You can't gather anything else]

Sighing again, Xie Feng began killing Kangaroos again.

If the poor harmless Kangaroo Kickers could speak, they would no doubt say: d.a.m.n it! We haven't done anything to you, just go away!

In the world of Samsara, the night does not exist in the same way that it is known in the real world. Here, people call this phenomenon simply as the sky simply turns black.

At this time it was past 2 am so naturally the sky was dark.

Xie Feng saw that his experience bar had increased by almost a quarter after approximately 5 hours of killing monsters.

With a satisfied expression, he decided to call it a day, since he must go to college in a few hours.

[You will be disconnected in 10 seconds]

Beijing, China.

At this moment, a young man of about 25 or 26 years old and an older man were having a conversation that if heard by others they would certainly be scared.

"Father, that guy named Xie does not walk away from the girl no matter what. Even when he goes to the company as long as he does not leave Shanghai it will be difficult for us to make a move on her". Said the young man.

The man, who was about 55 or 60 years old, thought for a moment before answering: "I don't know how that boy suddenly got that strength. He is not someone we should carelessly provoke. In a few days, the girl from the Gu family will take a flight from Shanghai to Beijing..... If something happens on the flight, the brat with the last name Xie will probably make a move to help her. That will be our moment".

"Understood. We have to get the formula to create the Nectar of Heaven before they start selling it overseas. Considering the intelligence of that guy, he is surely waiting for the right time and opportunity before expanding". Said the young man and left. His expression was kind but his eyes were like those of a poisonous snake.

The older man who stayed alone in the room after the young man left said to himself: "I still don't understand how that boy Xie Feng suddenly awakened such frightening power. Could it have something to do with his parents?... As I understand it, this boy appeared in an orphanage at the 10 years old..."

Suddenly, the man stopped and his eyes widened. However, the next moment he shook his head: "*Sigh*.... that can't be possible... No matter what, I cannot allow the Xie family to continue to grow".

In the past, Xie Yao's family was just a family with money. However, after the death of her parents, Xie Feng realized that money alone is not enough. He needed something else.

Political power.

"With the intelligence of that brat, the Xie family would become a family on the same level as the 5 big families in China today.... What a scary young man...".

After that, the older man poured himself a gla.s.s of wine. The wine label was sky blue with several clouds and a golden crown in the center. It was written in silver letters:

Nectar of Heaven.

The person in question, Xie Feng, was actually sighing as he looked at the sleeping beauty next to him.

Who else besides Gu Qianxue?

The sky was overcast so there was no moonlight or starlight. Still, he could recognize Gu Qianxue even with his eyes closed.

"It seems that a storm is coming". Xie Feng said in a low voice.

Enjoying the occasional sound of thunder indicating the imminent arrival of a storm, Xie Feng gently hugged Gu Qianxue and closed his eyes, making her smile unconsciously and move closer to him.

Soon, his breathing became uniform and he successfully entered the world of dreams.
