Chapter 9: Desert Guild

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Seuss had opened a warehouse in Kroll City to store the Thanksgiver’s Boots and the other bits and pieces of items.

So far, Seuss had accumulated more than a dozen collectibles dropped by monsters.

Seuss still had more than eighty silver coins in his hands, so he came to the Class Hall.

“I want to learn skills.” This time, the Thief Instructor did not say anything and only looked at Seuss deeply.

Looking at the skills window in front of him, Seuss carefully selected two skills after choosing for a long time.

Staggering Blow: 45 Silver Coins.

Kick: 6 Silver Coins

Seuss only had 20 silver coins left on him.

After learning the two skill books, Seuss opened his characteristic panel.

Staggering Blow

Skill Description: This is a necessary skill for you to steal. It can knock out an enemy for 35 seconds. Any damage will dispel the knock-out status from the target. You can only knock out one target at any one time.

Usage Requirement: Requires melee weapons.

Kick

Skill Description: Use your barbed heel to kick the opponent hard, causing the opponent to be stunned for 0.5 seconds. At the same time, interrupt the opponent’s skill cast.

Usage Requirement: Shoes.

These two skills were specially prepared by Seuss for the leader of the night cats, especially the Staggering Blow, which could give Seuss a huge chance to catch his breath.

If he wanted to solo a leader of the same level, even if Seuss had Gold equipment, he was not entirely confident. He had to make sufficient preparations.

After leaving the hall, Seuss went to the weapon shop. A shop assistant was busy settling accounts.

“Welcome. Take a look at whatever you want. It doesn’t matter if you don’t buy it.” The assistant in Kroll City had changed his greetings again.

He didn’t pay much attention to the weapons in the store because Seuss had seen them yesterday. As long as they were placed in the open, there was nothing Seuss could afford.

“I want a crossbow, two tubes of arrows, and a bottle of poison,” Seuss told the waiter.

The most suitable target for Seuss to level up would be those who were clumsy but had high defense and health.

There was basically no one who could keep up with Seuss’s level. He could only rely on himself.

Yesterday, when he was with Daydreamer, he saw a perfect spot suitable for leveling up.

However, that place was only suitable for one person. If there were more people, the effect of leveling would decrease. However, now was the perfect time.

“This is a standard military crossbow priced at fifteen silver coins, two tubes of refined steel arrows priced at five silver coins, and poisonous scorpion oil priced at five silver coins.”

Seuss had always felt that the assistant in these shops was definitely able to see how much money he had in his pockets. They would always make him spend most of it every time.

However, Seuss did not bargain with the waiter at this time, as every minute was precious.

After passing through a large open grassland, Seuss arrived at a place where rocks were growing everywhere.

Rubble was scattered everywhere, and among the rocks were some narrow tunnels.

This is it. Seuss observed for a moment and confirmed the coordinates of this place.

Sticking to the shadows cast by the rocks, Seuss carefully moved forward. This was a very active place for raging bulls, and it was full of danger.

Entering into the pile of rocks, the terrain here was strange. The gaps in the rocks could only allow one person to pass through. From one of the gaps, he looked into the distance, and about twenty yards away, there was a black raging bull.

Its whole body was covered with strong muscles, and the sharp horns on its head were like two sharp knives.

Level 13 Raging Bull: Normal monster.

Health Points: 1,500/1,500

Even though they only had 1,500 health points, level 10 was a huge gap, because after level 10, players needed to advance their class.

These monsters above level 10 were designed for players who had advanced their class.

Yesterday, Seuss and the others had discovered this place while they were killing monsters and exploring the map.

In the end, it was still Sirius who spent half an hour using magic amidst the rocks to kill a raging bull.

At that time, Sirius had already reached level seven.

He attached the standard military crossbow to his left arm and calibrated it. The angle was just right.

He happened to be able to include the raging bull in his attack range. Because the bull was too big, even if it discovered Seuss, it could not rush into the narrow path of the rubble pile, so it could not attack Seuss.

This was a typical terrain bug.

By making use of this terrain bug, Seuss could easily kill the raging bulls. The experience bonus from killing them across levels would allow Seuss to level up quickly.

He smeared the poisonous scorpion oil on a steel arrow which could cause continuous damage to the bull. Without the poisonous scorpion oil, it might take half an hour for Seuss to kill a bull, but for now, maybe ten minutes was enough.

After installing the crossbow bolts, the three bolts were ready in three seconds. He took aim at the bull, and with three whooshes, three arrows shot towards the bull in a straight line.

Puu, puu, puu. The three arrows hit the bull at the same time.

MISS, -1, MISS. Three values floated up from the raging bull’s head. Due to the huge difference in levels between the two sides, Seuss’s damage to the bull was very low. Most of the time, it was MISS.

Even if it hit, it would only deal 1 damage to the bull, but Seuss did not rely on arrows to kill the bull.

A green number floated above the raging bull’s head every second.

-10

-10

The poison was the main thing that would be killing the bulls.

After the raging bull was attacked, it spat out a mouthful of foul air and charged at Seuss.

With a bang, the raging bull collided with a rock and was rebounded. It was unable to attack Seuss and could only circle around the rock, it was utterly helpless.

Seuss skillfully finished installing the arrows and fired another wave of arrows at the bull.

Even though the damage was extremely low, under Seuss’s continuous attacks, the bull’s health showed signs of decreasing. However, it was very slow, only dropping bit by bit, and occasionally recovering a little.

And this was in a situation where there was poison.

Seuss’s attacking rate was very stable. The bull roared angrily after being attacked, but it could not get close to Seuss.

Everything went as smoothly as expected. Ten minutes later, the raging bull no longer had the strength to attack the rubble and collapsed to the ground.

System: You have killed a Raging Bull. You have gained 1,800% bonus experience from killing monsters above your level. You have received 18,290 experience points.

Seuss looked at his level and saw that it had already reached 21% of level 8. The experience points given by the bull were really high.

After two hours, there were less than a hundred arrows left in Seuss’s hands, but he did not need to buy any more supplies.

This was because Seuss was about to reach Level 10, and his experience points had already reached 97% of level 9. Even if he didn’t farm monsters here anymore, he would be able to complete his goal very quickly.

“Come here quickly. Someone is killing the raging bulls over here.” A rough voice came from the side of the stone forest.

Seuss laid low in the stone forest and looked over. The name Desert-Lone Eagle was displayed above his head.
