Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God - Chapter 12

Chapter 12

Chapter 12 - A Timeful Parry

System: Player Quiet Wolf has attacked you and entered a Yellow Name state . Duration of one hour . Any players who attack Yellow Name players will not receive any penalty .

Shi Feng only had 31 HP remaining . Being attacked from both sides by the Snow Fox and Quiet Wolf, put Shi Feng in a very dangerous position .

“Despicable!”Standing at a distance, Blackie scolded Quiet Wolf for sneaking an attack at such a moment . However, he couldn’t change a thing about it . The two of them were too far apart . It was too hard for him to land a hit on Quiet Wolf . He could only aim his attack on the Snow Fox, hoping to kill it off a second earlier and not letting Quiet Wolf profit off of them .

Although mages had high output, compared to hitting monsters, it was far harder to land a hit on players unless they stood still without moving . This was because the moment the Dark Arrow shot out, there would be a prediction line appearing . In a situation where the distance was great, players with good standards could usually dodge it . If it was an expert, then dodging it would be a piece of cake .

Just as the Snow Fox and Quiet Wolf were about to rush up . . . The corners of Shi Feng’s mouth revealed a cold smile . He had been interacting with Quiet Wolf in Shadow for years now, so he was extremely familiar with Quiet Wolf’s strengths and habits . Shi Feng took two steps back, forming a perfect triangle between the Snow Fox and Quiet Wolf . Shi Feng gripped the Novice Sword tightly in front of his chest . He stood there without moving as he awaited the arrival of their attacks .

“Did he give up?”Quiet Wolf started looking down on Shi Feng when he saw Shi Feng preparing to block with his sword . Although players could reduce the damage received by defending the attack, the Snow Fox was an Elite . Even if Shi Feng could defend it, the attack would still cause around 50 damage . With just 31 HP remaining, Shi Feng couldn’t even take a hit .

The Snow Fox was a step ahead, biting towards Shi Feng .

Tearing Bite!“Just in time . ” Instead of retreating, Shi Feng advanced . He rushed towards the Snow Fox .

The Novice Sword blocked the Snow Fox in its mouth . Using the lifesaving skill Parry, Shi Feng could block a frontal attack once . Shi Feng then continued by lifting the Snow Fox . The Snow Fox had low power, so Shi Feng had easily tossed it towards Quiet Wolf . Everything happened too quickly . Quiet Wolf who was rushing towards Shi Feng could not react in time . In an instant, his shoulder was bitten by the Snow Fox .

A damage of -164 appeared on Quiet Wolf’s head . His HP was instantly cleared down to zero .

“How?” Quiet Wolf was unbelievably shocked . His heart was filled with unwillingness as he stared at Shi Feng’s ridiculing smile . He never imagined that players could do such a thing . If he had known about it, he definitely wouldn’t rush forward, just to get himself killed .

At this point, regardless of how unwilling Quiet Wolf was, his HP had turned to 0 . His body could only fall and turn into starlight . He had even dropped a piece of equipment . In the distance, Blackie became dumbfounded . He had even forgotten to attack the Snow Fox . “Blackie, stop daydreaming! Hurry up and attack the Snow Fox!” Shi Feng yelled and rushed at the Snow Fox again .

After Blackie started reacting again, he chanted a curse, madly attacking the Snow Fox .

Without Quiet Wolf’s disturbance, the near-death Snow Fox was just a decoration . Within 10 seconds, the Snow Fox released a wail before falling down .

System: [Rare Elite] Cunning Snow Fox killed . Obtained 130 EXP . Shi Feng was Level 2 now, so this amount of EXP was nothing to him . What Shi Feng was concerned about was the loot . Rare Elites were the love of all God’s Domain players because of their shocking drop rates . Furthermore, this was the First Kill of the Snow Fox, so the loot must be even better .

“It can’t be . It actually dropped a weapon . ” Shi Feng obtained a Staff an Armguard .

[Blackwood Staff] (Bronze Rank)

Level 1

Equipment Requirements: Strength 5

Attack Power +8

Intelligence +3, Vitality +1, Mana +30

Durability 20/20This equipment would greatly strengthen a mage . Not only was its Attack Power high, it even gave an additional 3 Intelligence . If a mage equipped it, then their damage might increase up to two levels .

[Fox Skin Gloves] (Common Rank, Leather Armor)

Level 1

Equipment Requirements: Strength 3

Defense +4

Durability 20/20

On the other hand, Quiet Wolf had contributed a pair of Level 0 Common Leathered Shoes with +3 Defense .

“And here I thought it was some Gray Trash Equipment . It seems Quiet Wolf’s luck isn’t that bad, being able to obtain a piece of Common Equipment . ” Shi Feng had a different view of Quiet Wolf now . Obtaining a piece of Common Equipment at the starting period of the game definitely depended on luck . However, Quiet Wolf’s luck now benefited Shi Feng instead . Swordsmen could wear both Plate Armor and Cloth Armor . Now that Shi Feng had two of these new items, his Defense had increased by a lot .

“Blackie, your equipment . ” Shi Feng passed the Blackwood Staff to Blackie .

However, Blackie did not receive the equipment . He had a hesitant look on his face . Killing the Snow Fox depended entirely on Shi Feng . Blackie wasn’t of much help, yet he had received the best equipment; a piece of Bronze Equipment no less . At this stage of the game, there weren’t many players capable of owning such an item . It was extremely valuable .

“What’s happened to you; aren’t we good brothers? Why are you being courteous with me? Besides, you’re a Cursemancer . Once you’ve reached Level 1, you can fully exert the staff’s greatest capabilities . With that, we can level even faster . ” Shi Feng said in a serious tone as if he knew what Blackie was thinking .

After some thought, Blackie was able to make sense of it . He no longer refused it, saying, “Thanks . I’ll definitely use it properly . ”

“Now . that’s much better . ” Shi Feng laughed, “Let’s go . We’re going to Dark-Moon Valley . ”

Red Leaf Town . “Quiet Wolf, what were you even doing? Not only did you die, you’ve even dropped a piece of expensive Equipment . Do you know how precious that Equipment is?” Flaming Tiger snapped as he cursed .

Quiet Wolf’s expression was as gloomy as dark water . That pair of shoes was something he had obtained after grinding for 7 hours, and now he had actually lost it . Even his heart was bleeding right now . Although he had wanted to explain, he did not know how to . Should he say how he was toyed with by Shi Feng? That wasn’t something he was willing to admit . However, even if he wanted to snatch the equipment back, he wasn’t an opponent for Shi Feng . “Brother Tiger, I discovered a Rare Elite in the wild . I didn’t think I would be discovered by that kid when I was about to kill off the Elite . That kid had even brought along another person . In a one versus three situation, I wasn’t their opponent at all . ” Quiet Wolf pretended to be enraged as he turned black into white . He continuously tempted Flaming Tiger . “That brat should have killed the Rare Elite by now . He must’ve obtained some good equipment . They were on the path towards Dark Moon Valley . We could still catch up to them if we chase after them . We might even be able to get back the equipment . ”

“Rare Elite!?” Flaming Tiger’s eyes started to shine . He no longer questioned Quiet Wolf . Instead, he was extremely interested in the loot of the Rare Elite . He said excitedly . “Let’s go . We’ll immediately chase after them . They actually dare to steal my equipment . I will make them regret even playing God’s Domain . ”Within a short moment, Flaming Tiger gathered all the members of Shadow Workshop present in Red Leaf Town . He brought along 11 Workshop members and rushed towards Dark Moon Valley . No matter what, he wanted to kill off Shi Feng and obtain his equipment .

At this moment, Shi Feng and Blackie had already arrived at Dark Moon Valley . There was a smithy beside the flowing creek . Shi Feng and Blackie quietly stood in front of it . They were looking at a barechested, middle-aged uncle . In his hand, the man wielded a steel hammer . Ding! Dang! He kept hammering on the crimson red ore .

Time slowly flowed by, bit by bit .

“Brother Feng, are we still going to wait? It’s already been half an hour now . ” Blackie said .

“We have to wait . Without patience, he won’t give us the Quest . ” Shi Feng affirmed .

In his previous life, Hammer Trading had passed by this place on accident . He had discovered a smithy here . However, the blacksmith here didn’t pay any attention to him regardless of how Hammer Trading talked to him . This had enraged Hammer Trading, so he decided to drag it on with the blacksmith . He kept standing to the side, sending death glares to the blacksmith . He had never imagined that after some time, the blacksmith would actively speak up . Not only that, the blacksmith even gave out a Hidden Quest . This had allowed Hammer Trading to learn the Forging Talent, becoming the Forging Master of the era .

When Shi Feng thought about obtaining the Forging Talent, coupling it with the Book Of Forging, advancing into an Advanced Forging Apprentice became a very easy task . When that time came, Gold Coins would rain into his pockets .

After waiting for more than ten minutes…“Do you two have an interested in Forging?” The middle-aged blacksmith suddenly asked .

“Yes, sir . We’ve loved Forging since we were young . ” Shi Feng immediately said .

The middle-aged blacksmith nodded his head, saying in a satisfied tone, “Then since you love Forging, I can teach it to you . But first, could you help me retrieve 100 pieces of Meteorite Ore? They can be found on the West side of Crimson Star Mine . ”

“Of course . We would gladly be at your service . ” Shi Feng respectfully answered .

System: Hidden Quest ‘Road Of Forging’ accepted . Player is requested by Forging Master Jack to obtain 100 pieces of Meteorite Ore from Crimson Star Mine .

Crimson Star Mine was the nest of Level 4 Kobolds . These monsters loved ore the most . They would spend everyday mining within the mines . As such, Kobolds were born with great strength . However, they had short limbs . Because they stayed underground for long periods of time, their range of vision was short . They could only detect enemies within a 35-yard distance . This distance was also the maximum range of attack for a mage .

At the mine’s entrance, there were many Kobolds walking around . An entire group of them would be attracted even if only one of them was attacked .

[Kobold]

Level 4

HP 420

“Here . First, some food and drink to fill ourselves . We’ll start work after that . ” Shi Feng brought out a Black Steel Beer and an Apple Pie .  

Blackie didn’t understand what Shi Feng was trying to do, but since it was Shi Feng’s request, he must have his own reasons . Blackie sat down and started eating .

Ten seconds after eating the Apple Pie, all of Blackie’s attributes were suddenly increased by +1 points, the effect lasting 30 minutes .

After drinking the Black Steel Beer, Blackie’s vision started becoming hazy . When he looked at the distant Level 4 Kobolds, their Levels were suddenly reduced by 2; becoming Level 2 . “Alright, let’s start then . A bottle of Black Steel Beer’s drunken effect only lasts 30 minutes . ” Shi Feng stood up . He took out a Smoke Bomb and walked closer to the mine’s entrance . Then, he threw it at the group of Level 4 Kobolds; there were currently over ten of them there .

[Smoke Bomb]

Able to reduce the visibility in a radius of 10 by 10 yards . Duration of one hour .

The Smoke Bomb was able to reduce a monster’s vision by 10 yards . It wasn’t particularly useful against other monsters . However, it was great when facing Kobolds . Their vision was now reduced to 25 yards . As long as a mage attacked from a 30-yard distance, the Kobolds would not be able to spot them at all . They could only stand there and wait for their deaths . “Attack . ” Shi Feng pointed to the Kobolds within the smoke .

Blackie was half-doubting Shi Feng’s actions, but he still chose to believe in Shi Feng . His mouth started chanting a curse . A moment later, a Dark Arrow shot out, landing directly on the foremost Kobold .
