A single strike of Evil Light Slash wiped off more than one-third of the pterosaurs' health!
The DPS instantly exploded and reached an index of 70,000 to 80,000!
That’s all, and this is just the damage triggered by Xu Mu’s single skill.
The Meteorite Set and the title [Passion Like Wildfire] were not triggered.
"If there wasn't a tenfold limit, these monsters would still owe me two tubes of blood." Xu Mu glanced at the Evil Light Slash that had entered CD status.
He drew his sword and marched forward.
Evil Light Slash is Asura's first colorless skill. It has a CD cooldown of 15s and a fixed damage value of 1618 points, which is about three times the damage of normal attacks.
Through various buff gains and a series of enhancements such as weapons, equipment, etc.
The final data can reach up to 5000 points!
Xu Mu was very satisfied with this.
After quickly approaching the pterosaur with the three-stage slash, start with an upward strike + a sweep.
Put a circle of burning effect on monsters.
Immediately, a ring of fire spreading around him was triggered.
The monsters began to lose health at a rate of -130 damage per second.
Xu Mu held onto his intermediate HP while getting hit, triggering Sauta's roar special effect.
The Meteorite Set is also triggered at this time.
A meteorite wrapped in flames fell from the sky and hit the group of pterosaurs in front.
"boom!!"
Several layers of damage popped up one after another.
In less than 10 seconds.
The group of pterosaurs in front of him were instantly cleared out by Xu Mu.
The experience value jumped slightly to 32%
“It’s not that difficult.”
"It's just that the experience points are a bit low."
"At present, a monster can only provide me with about 1% of experience. If I continue to waste time here, I will probably only be able to reach a little over level 16 after the entire tube of fatigue is exhausted."
"If this trend continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to complete the fatigue cycle around level 17, and I'll have to be forced to rest."
The so-called fatigue cycle is the common name in the current copy.
Because every time you level up, you can replenish your fatigue and start a new round of monster hunting.
Therefore, if fatigue is planned properly, it will be possible to reach the next level before it runs out.
You can kill monsters infinitely, continuously upgrade, and quickly catch up with the rankings.
In the current dungeon chat channel, players have reached level 15 one after another, and as soon as they entered Hutton Mar, they have already exhausted all their fatigue points.
I can only choose to rest in the hotel for one night.
Then, this group of players will naturally lose the best opportunity to impact their levels.
After a quick calculation in his mind, Xu Mu decisively gave up on the group of pterosaurs gathered not far away.
There, there were more than 30 pterosaurs waiting for him to harvest.
But it will also consume 30 points of fatigue.
The trouble is not worth it.
He took the opportunity to clean up the battlefield, ignoring the blue and white ones, and threw them directly into Xu Mu's backpack. After returning to the city, he would find a decomposition machine to deal with them together.
A total of more than 1,000 gold coins were obtained, with a total profit of 10,000.
The wealth in Xu Mu’s pocket has accumulated to nearly 100,000 gold coins.
I opened the statistics panel and looked at the average amount of gold coins currently earned by players.
As the level continues to increase, the monsters that players challenge become more and more difficult.
The amount of gold coins exploded is also increasing.
Currently, the average number of gold coins per person is around 1,000.
This money is enough to cover the minimum expenses for food and hotel for a month.
But I want to use this money to improve myself.
It's just a drop in the bucket.
"I can start the second round of strengthening plan, but I don't have any suitable weapons at the moment. As for strengthening the armor... I'll talk about it when I have more money in the future."
He collected his thoughts and led Celia to climb up.
Each floor of the Sky Tower does not forcibly block the player's upper entrance.
As long as the player is willing, they can even rush through dozens of floors in one go. (The premise is that there is no BOSS blocking the door. The upper entrance will be blocked if there is a BOSS)
It took Xu Mu a few minutes to rush all the way to the 13th floor.
This area currently belongs to the Dragon Tower.
However, the monsters were replaced during the journey through several levels.
It changed from a pterosaur to a dragon man holding a spear.
At level 20, the attack has soared to 300 points, and the health is as high as 18,000.
Xu Mu also saw a four-man team with an average level of 17, fighting on this floor.
They were still holding unenhanced purple or even blue weapons.
The damage dealt is only about 1000.
It takes four people about two minutes to fight with all their might to kill one dragon.
But for Xu Mu, he didn't think much of this monster.
Keep climbing!
Finally, when we reached the 35th floor.
Xu Mu encountered a fairly decent monster.
【Gargoyle Puppet】
[Level: 24]
[Attack: 520]
[HP: 33000]
[Skill: Air Fall. The gargoyle can easily float up into the air with the help of air buoyancy , and then smash down with the help of its body gravity, causing triple attack range damage! ]
[Skill: Ghost. After being killed, the gargoyle will continue to exist as a ghost. In the ghost state, the air fall skill is invalid, but it will self-destruct if approached, causing a large area of ​​damage 5 times the attack power! ]
"What...what kind of creatures are these? I've never heard of them before. Are they also called life?" Celia stood behind Xu Mu, looking at the group of monsters that were floating in the air against gravity, like stone pillars, her rosy lips raised in an arc of surprise.
"They are not living things, they are just stones controlled by people." Xu Mu answered simply, then switched professions and stepped into the area.
This time, he changed his profession to magic scholar.
He took out Pinocchio's wand from his backpack.
Xu Mu walked forward quickly.
Xu Mu was familiar with the experience in his previous life.
Sword-based melee professions will be at a great disadvantage when fighting on this level.
These gargoyles float in the air all year round. If sword-type professions want to hit them, they must start leaping and then perform normal attacks in the air.
And without the support of skills, how much damage can normal attacks alone cause?
Therefore, this level is also the most troublesome level for Xu Mu, who previously majored in sword-related characters, and it can be described as torture.
But now that I can switch careers at will, the pressure has been greatly reduced.
He first jogged with his wand in hand and entered the hatred range of the gargoyles.
I pulled in twenty gargoyles at once to test the waters.
There is actually a little trick to hitting them.
That's a scam!
After using the [Air Fall] skill, the Gargoyle will be in a state of stiffness for nearly half a minute.
It will float up again half a minute later to look for the next opportunity to fall.
This half minute is the best output time for players!
However, if the player continues to move, the Gargoyle will not easily give up the [Airfall]
So, Xu Mu held the magic wand and directly turned on the hang-up mode.
Standing directly below a group of gargoyles.
It didn't move for several seconds.
This action made Celia, who was standing in a safe distance behind him, anxious.
The gargoyles also stared at him in amazement.
I wondered what was wrong with this kid?
Faced with so many big brothers like us, you dare to be dazed!
Brothers, hit him hard!
The moment when the gargoyle was about to fall to the ground.
Xu Mu's ears twitched slightly, and he easily distinguished the sound of them about to activate their skills.
Then he raised the wand in his hand.
Straw man substitute!
In an instant, Xu Mu flashed to an area a few meters away.
All the gargoyles fell to the ground and hit the poor innocent straw man.
Xu Mu took out a bottle filled with thick and sticky medicine that looked like magma.
Throw forward!
Lava potion bottle!
The mage's colorless skill generates a lava zone in an area in front of him and inflicts continuous fire damage to the enemy.
The medicine bottle shattered when it hit the ground.
In an instant, the surface was covered with boiling lava.
Group damage numbers began to bounce off the gargoyle's body crazily.
However, without the +10 enhancement of the Dead Leaf Blade, the +0 magic wand in his hand can only be used with difficulty.
The damage is not too high, only a few hundred blood drops per second.
But with the passive effect of the flame aura.
These monsters can lose nearly 2% of their health per second, which is not a slow speed.
Half a minute later, they recharged and took off again.
The blood volume has already dropped below half.
Xu Mu used the same trick again for another round.
Including pulling the monsters and using tricks, it took a total of 2 minutes to torture them all to death.
After death, their passive skills are triggered and they all turn into ghost form.
However, without their hard shell, they have almost no defense.
Even if the lava bottles burn on their bodies, the numbers start at 2000 per jump.
It only took another half a minute to kill all 20 monsters!
In a flash.
“Swish!”
A beam of white light shot up into the sky.
Xu Mu actually upgraded directly!
Take a quick glance at the current experience bar.
Level 16 27%
"Wow, a level 23 monster is awesome. Can one monster provide 5% experience?"
"It seems that I can brush my teeth here ."
After he finished speaking, Xu Mu started flirting around with his magic wand in hand again.
This time, he tried to pull all the nearly 50 gargoyles on this floor over at once!
10 minutes later.
"brush!"
Another upgrade reminder.
Xu Mu has quickly reached level 17.
50 gargoyles were still a bit too much for him at the moment.
The most important thing is that the coverage of the flame aura and lava potion bottle is not enough.
You can only hit up to 30 at a time.
The rest will take extra time and effort to resolve.
Otherwise, Xu Mu estimated that five minutes would be enough.
Of course, don’t think that Xu Musheng is so fast, so any player can imitate him at will.
First, the title provides 1% health reduction per second.
Secondly, the Meteorite Set will strike once every half minute with a fixed amount of 2000 damage.
Plus 5.5 times the buff amount.
Of course, this is also inseparable from Xu Mu's skillful control of the gargoyle's skill mechanism.
In his previous life, he almost vomited from playing with this thing.
The combination of various factors allowed Xu Mu to quickly clear these monsters within ten minutes.
If it were other players, it would take at least an hour to deal with all 50 monsters.
Moreover, you must ensure that there is sufficient medication during this hour.
If you are hit by so many gargoyles, you will die on the spot and roll back to the city directly.
"Continue." The benefits are good. Even taking into account the reduction in experience after level 17, this is still a holy place for Xu Mu to level up.
Unfortunately, he had already cleared out the gargoyles on the 35th floor, and he would have to wait ten minutes for them to refresh.
This amount of time is enough for me to kill another round of monsters.
Xu Mu didn't wait. After cleaning up the battlefield, he took Celia and rushed directly to the 36th floor!
When I reached the 36th floor of the Sky Tower, there were still gargoyles.
Although the level is still 23, the attack and health have increased slightly.
Attack reaches 320, HP reaches 20000
"It seems that the higher the level, the stronger the monster's attributes."
No need to say more, just pull the monsters and start killing!
This time, it took Xu Mu a full 20 minutes to reach level 18.
It took nearly twice as long as before.
Firstly, as the level goes up, the experience value gained from monsters decreases.
From previously being able to gain 5% experience for killing a level 15 beast, to now being able to gain less than 3% experience for killing a level 17 beast, the benefits have been almost cut in half.
Secondly, the monster's attributes have jumped a bit, and Xu Mu's attack power is no longer enough.
For other players, it might just be a matter of 2,000 extra health points.
But with the debuff of Xu Mu's purgatory mode.
It's equivalent to dealing 20,000 more damage.
Now the main output almost all depends on the fire ring provided by the title.
"Also, the effectiveness of the Ring of Fire is beginning to decline."
"After all, it's just a level 15 purple title. Although the attributes are not clearly stated, for monsters that are too high above the title level, the damage that can be dealt is probably only around 0.8% or even 0.7%."
If this continues, Xu Mu estimated that by the time the monster level reaches around level 30.
The effect brought by the title will be completely scrapped.
Because I really can't fight anymore.
Secondly, my own equipment is gradually failing to keep up.
In the Forest of Loran, with his set of purple equipment and +10 Dead Leaf Blade, he is a very powerful figure.
But after arriving at the Sky City, these level 15 purple equipment are already far below the current demand.
"We need to make a major equipment innovation."
"Otherwise, it will be very difficult to upgrade the subsequent levels."
"By then, we won't even be able to defeat the boss, even the small monsters will be difficult to defeat."
If this were to happen in a fantasy novel, it would be considered an unstable foundation.
It's not impossible to continue to kill, but it will be very troublesome if the level is raised and the equipment doesn't keep up.
Xu Mu glanced at the equipment in his backpack that he had accumulated after nearly an hour of fighting monsters.
There are hundreds of blue and white outfits.
There are actually six or seven pieces of level 20 purple equipment.
But they are all scattered effects, only adding some extra health and defense.
In terms of attributes, it is not as strong as the purple equipment given by Sauta and Pinoxu.
Come to think of it.
After all, it’s just purple equipment dropped by monsters.
It is definitely not in the same league as Lord Purple.
"Adventurer, what's wrong?" Seeing Xu Mu standing there motionless for a long time, Celia walked forward with her skirt lifted and asked softly with concern.
"No, I was just thinking that I needed a stronger experience."
"Experience?"
"Yes." Xu Mu answered casually and opened the player auction panel.
The thought came to me and I entered a few keywords.
Found it after searching.
It really does exist.
【Teleportation Magic Matrix (Props)】
[Description: A one-time teleportation matrix point that allows players to quickly return to the corresponding area]
[Price: 500 gold]
…
This thing has the same function as a scroll of portability, except that one is for coming and the other is for going.
Currently, only wealthy players can afford this.
But Xu Mu didn't care.
After a series of monster-killing operations, his backpack was filled with a huge sum of 150,000 gold.
Bought 10 at once.
After placing one on the 36th floor of the Sky City, he took Celia's soft little hand.
After urging his thoughts, he used the scroll of returning to the city given to him by Feng Zhen.
Accompanied by flashes of light.
Xu Mu and Celia both appeared in the main city area of ​​Huttonmar.
Compared to the deserted place just now, it is now very lively.
In the past hour, countless players from the Novice Village have arrived here one after another.
I opened the rankings and took a look.
Currently, in the main city area of ​​Hettonmar No. 141, the total number of players is about three million.
According to the data of 1.6 billion players joining the dungeon.
Within this hour, nearly 30% of the top players have reached level 15.
They all entered Hedonmar.
"What kind of magic is this... It's so magical, I feel a little dizzy." Celia was still in shock from the quick return to the city.
Xu Mu held her hand without saying anything.
He walked through the crowd and arrived at a magnificent cathedral in Huttonmar with ease.
Remidia Cathedral, the residence of the clergy.
At this moment, the place was crowded with people and players were coming in an endless stream.
They are all a group of nannies who come here to take on a mission.
After Xu Mu led Celia in, he quickly locked onto the figure of a girl in the church.
She was wearing a majestic and exquisite armor and had flowing blond hair that reached her shoulders.
With a gentle expression on her face, she smiled at the countless players who came to her to change their jobs.
Galantis Gracia!
Xu Mu bypassed countless players and went straight forward.
This instantly caused dissatisfaction among the players in the queue.
"What the hell! Dude, what are you doing? Can't you see the line?"
"Do you understand first come first served?"
"What the hell, there are people cutting in line even in a dungeon? I'm really impressed! Are they really bullying us, the clergy, because we are weak in the early stages of our profession?"
"Don't worry, Grand Master Granthis is well-known for abiding by the rules in the Huttonmar area. She will expel this guy without us saying anything. I'm waiting to see his face as he leaves in shame." Some players crossed their arms and prepared to watch the joke.
At this time, Galanthis also noticed Xu Mu, the queue cutter.
Just when he was about to frown and ask him to obey the rules and line up at the back.
Xu Mu spoke.
"Please give me 100 invitations to the Abyss."
Swish!
Galanthis's expression changed instantly!
"You...how did you know about the abyss...It's not convenient to talk here, come with me."
She looked around at the people who were waiting anxiously.
Immediately, all the players were stunned.
She took Xu Mu's hand and left her post directly.
"Sorry everyone, please wait for me for a moment."
After that, she took Xu Mu directly into the small house behind the church.
Leaving behind a group of players in disarray in the wind.
"WTF???"
"What the hell... How come my job transfer instructor was kidnapped?"
"No, who said she was particularly observant of religious rules? It's not even time to get off work yet!"
I'm promoting a new book by a good brother. It starts off very excitingly. The protagonist is a singer, but he just doesn't do his main job. He's always thinking about a series of side jobs like games, literature, and painting. His fans are all devastated!
The following is a brief introduction
Many years later on Blue Star, a reporter interviewed Yu Jian, who had already achieved great success.
"Your fans say you are not doing your job properly. What do you think about this?"
Yu Jian seriously corrected him: "This is nonsense. How can you slander someone's innocence out of thin air? My fans have misunderstood me. My main job is really a singer."
"But every time you publish a piece of music, you also publish works in other fields. Is your main job really a singer?"
"Of course! Everything else is just a side job!"
Reporter: "What about your games like Elden Ring, Sekiro, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild?"
Yu Jian was very sincere: "These are all my side jobs."
"What about literary works like Harry Potter, Ghost Blows Out the Light, The Great Ruler, and Dream of the Red Chamber?"
Yu Jian: "Of course, these are all my side jobs."
Reporter: "So are your movies, such as The Shawshank Redemption, The Truman Show, and Farewell My Concubine, also a sideline?"
Yu Jian still smiled: "Side jobs, side jobs, these are my side jobs as a singer."
As a singer, I can write songs, make movies, make games, and I know a little bit about art, sculpture, drama, and architecture. This is reasonable, right?
Who doesn’t have a side job these days?
