Chapter 243 Advanced Skills
Xiao Feng spent two days exploring the second floor of the underground palace and the Jungle of Trapped Beast.
After killing all the creeps on the second floor of the underground palace, he returned to the Jungle of Trapped Beast with a full bag of equipment and started to enhance the proficiency of his several skills after finding a creep randomly. Meanwhile, he didn’t neglect upgrading the forging skill. The entry-level items were wasted by Xiao Feng constantly, leaving more and more iron pieces in his bag.
Even the green suit was forged by Xiao Feng but he hated to use his blue suit of rare type or above. He sorted them all out and gave them to Qian Duoduo.
Si Yejing was busy with the final exam these two days. She usually logged on at night so Xiao Feng only explored the second floor of the Jungle of Trapped Beast with her at night and focused on increasing the skill proficiency in other time.
After all, the experience points of the creeps on the second floor of the underground palace were enough for Xiao Feng to level up, so it would not affect his leveling up. Moreover, he didn’t find the orc ritualist in the Jungle of Trapped Beast and he had no interest in other bosses that didn’t drop the skill books for priests.
Yet, he didn’t find a way to crack the cloaking skill of the assassinating guardian on the second floor of the underground palace. Xiao Feng had no other way but to avoid the guardian and wait for the refilling of other creeps and bosses. In that case, the assassinating guardian would disappear himself.
Meanwhile, with the help of Xiao Feng’s savvy, the efficiency of increasing the proficiency over the past two days was still rather high. After a series of system notifications, Xiao Feng upgraded most of his skills.
“Hey! Congratulations! Your Holy Light Skill has been upgraded to level 3! The skill effect has been enhanced!”
“Hey! Congratulations! Your Life Blessing Skill has been upgraded to level 3! The skill effect has been enhanced!”
“Hey! Congratulations! Your Protective Blessing Skill has been upgraded to level 3! The skill effect has been enhanced!”
“Hey! Congratulations! Your Weapon Blessing Skill has been upgraded to level 3! The skill effect has been enhanced!”
“Hey! Congratulations! Your Courage Blessing Skill has been upgraded to level 3! The skill effect has been enhanced!”
“Hey! Congratulations! Your Forging Skill has been upgraded to level 2! The skill effect has been enhanced!”
The two damaging skills—Spear of Holy Light and Hammer of Judgment remained level 2 and the other two skills for relieving the negative status—Purification Skill and Expulsion Skill, maintained level 2 and level 1 respectively. Apart from that, Xiao Feng’s other professional skills were all upgraded to advanced level!
It was not that Xiao Feng didn’t want to upgrade those skills but that his magic points were not adequate and he couldn’t increase the skill proficiency by killing the boss with a yellow name. Hence, he could only focus on upgrading several buff skills and the Holy Light Skill.
After the skills were upgraded to advanced level, the effect was greatly enhanced.
Holy Light Skill (Advanced: 0/1000)
Effect: Increase the health points of an ally with the healing amount of 20% of the maximum health points of the target + own spirit
Cooldown Time: 30 seconds
Consumption of Magic Points: 30 points

Protective Blessing (Advanced: 0/1000)

Duration Time: 60 seconds
Cooldown Time: 30 seconds
Consumption of Magic Points: 50 points
Weapon Blessing (Advanced: 0/1000)

Duration Time: 60 seconds
Cooldown Time: 30 seconds
Consumption of Magic Points: 50 points
Life Blessing (Advanced: 0/1000)
Effect: Increase the MGD of an allied target with a short period of time by 20% of the target MGD plus 20% of the self-intelligence points.
Duration Time: 60 seconds
Cooldown Time: 30 seconds
Consumption of Magic Points: 50 points
The healing skill, Holy Light Skill and four buff skills were greatly enhanced. Particularly the Holy Light Skill was equipped with 20% of the healing points after being upgraded to the advanced level. That was, the damage percentage on the creeps of the Dark Attribute and Undead Attribute also reached 20%.
Now if Xiao Feng was faced with creeps or bosses of these two attributes, he could kill them by four or five strikes. In other words, less than 3 minutes would be needed. This kind of creeping efficiency was rather horrible. Besides, the damaged Sage Staff could reduce the cooldown time of the Holy Light Skill by 10%, which could also save him 3 seconds.
Xiao Feng had an idea then. He had been interested in the several creeping areas in the Bone Mountains, that was to say, the several Skeleton Armies.
Now that his creeping efficiency was increased, he could kill the Skeleton Armies as long as he held out for two or three minutes.
However, watching the skeleton archers, skeleton spear wielders and skeleton mages in the distance, Xiao Feng was not confident anyway. The overwhelming ranged attack couldn’t be underestimated. Even if each creep could only bring 10 points of damage, tens of such creeps would kill Xiao Feng then. Moreover, the several skeleton armies consisted of thousands of creeps. Therefore, Xiao Feng thought it over and decided not to set foot in advanced creeping area before he could protect himself well.
This was different from combatting the Glory Guild. No matter how many players the Glory Guild had, it would be in vain if they couldn’t break through Xiao Feng’s defense. Nevertheless, the creeps’ attack power could never be ignored. Xiao Feng would definitely lose health once struck by the creeps.
Apart from that, his forging skill was also upgraded to level 2. Besides its success rate being increased to 20%, nothing else was changed.
As to the other two life skills, advanced scouting skill and elementary collection skill, as Xiao Feng didn’t work on the proficiency of these two skills, they remained at the same level.
“Hey! Your friend Night Cooer sends you a calling request! Do you accept it?”
Xiao Feng’s skill board was not closed when he heard the log-on notification of Si Yejing and received the calling request from her.
“Wait for a minute, I am on my way.”
Before Si Yejing spoke, Xiao Feng said first. As he did in the past two days, he left the space marker in the position where Si Yejing logged off. After she logged on, he would get himself teleported there and kill creeps with her.
However, there were plenty of bosses in the Jungle of Trapped Beast and the creeps were advanced too, they were too scattered with obviously inadequate experience points, which made Si Yejing drop from No. 1 to No. 7 on the level list.
The only one harvest was that Xiao Feng and she found a boss—orc stealther and gained a refined skill book for the assassin, Dance of Death. It was such a great delight to Si Yejing that she claimed that it was even worthwhile to be excluded from the level list if she could gain another one skill book as that.
Apart from the stunning value of the refined skill book she could use, more importantly, she had gained more than 10 entry-level skill books when she followed Xiao Feng to creep. These skill books were worth at least a few thousand.
It was because she had to take the final exam that she could only log on at night. Otherwise, her harvest would be doubled.
“Jackass! When did you move?”
Unexpectedly, Si Yejing shouted with anger on the other side of the phone.
“Emm?” Xiao Feng was shocked and then looked at the clock. It was after supper time now. Si Yejing did log on later than before. So she had been to the apartment Xiao Feng lived in before?
“Since when I have to ask for your opinion about moving?” Xiao Feng responded by asking in a confused voice.
“I... I...”
Si Yejing became nervous right away and then said with forced confidence, “I am having a holiday after exam. I was going to have dinner at your home. However, I didn’t know you had moved without telling me. I knocked on the door for quite a while and no one replied.”
“Why are you wandering around instead of going back home since you are on holiday?” Xiao Feng said angrily. He activated the space ring and showed himself in front of Si Yejing.
“I am not going back home. This summer vacation, I must be a professional player and help my cousin to help the guild grow.” Si Yejing hastened to retreat and say after Xiao Feng suddenly showed up.
“It’s none of my business. Do you still want to creep?” Xiao Feng didn’t feel like intervening in her things.
“Yes! Of course, I do. Let’s go to find the orc stealther!” Si Yejing changed the subject immediately and said in an excited tone instead.
Of course Xiao Feng wouldn’t find the orc stealther with her. Instead, he walked into the second floor of the Jungle of Trapped Beast while searching for the orc ritualist.
The Jungle of Trapped Beast was a special map. Without coordinates or direction, they still had no sense of direction despite the past two days’ exploration in the Jungle.
Obviously, the second floor of the Jungle of Trapped Beast is much bigger than the first floor, because Xiao Feng couldn’t perceive the entrance of the third floor by now.
Maybe it was because the Jungle of Trapped Beast had only two floors rather than three floors or because Xiao Feng hadn’t come near the third floor. Generally, the entrance of the Jungle of Trapped Beast was rather concealed, which was hard to recognize even if it was in front of you. Only Xiao Feng could discover it with his powerful perception ability at a close enough distance.
“Emm? Look! There are so many Orc Generals!”
Suddenly, Si Yejing stared at the annular square with a special design in front and shouted in a low voice.
The place was apparently uncommon, which was separated from the ordinary ground and covered with a rock square. Besides, a group of Orc Generals flocked together and wandered there! The Orc General was a level-30 boss!
“Hurry up! We will be rich if we kill them all!”
Si Yejing restrained her excitement and said to Xiao Feng in a low voice, as if she was afraid to scare off the Orc Generals with her voice. Actually, the Orc Generals were neutral bosses with yellow names. They wouldn’t attack them even if the players standing in front of them.
With his eyes running down the place, he was pitiful that there was no orc ritualist among the bosses, but he couldn’t turn around and leave for that.
Because this place was obviously uncommon, the entrance of the third floor might be before them.
“Let’s go.”
Xiao Feng raised his hand and added buff to Si Yejing. Then Si Yejing did something that was stunning to Xiao Feng at once.
