Chapter 382 310. Mastering a Rare Technique, the Anomaly of Dragon Forest_2
Lanwei was on the verge of a breakdown.
Two Shadow Leeches had been killed on the spot by a Healing Art with an absurd Recovery Amount while he was rapidly wrapped by a whip of darkness and hung upside down from a tree.
Lanwei swore to himself that he was not a weak Star Rank; he recognized that the whip was one of Phoenix Tail Flower Team leader's signature Skills.
According to the records, the adversary should only be at level 26.
He, a dignified level 31 Star Rank Spearman, even if not in good form, having not eaten for a day and after being disgusted by Hulus, with all kinds of negative statuses affecting him...
But to be ambushed by a level 26 adventurer and hung up in a tree? Impossible!
Lanwei was furious, ready to resist and prove his true strength, when suddenly a thick, white object pressed against his head.
It was a Magic Cannon.
The pure white barrel ended in a helix-shaped triangle.
At the center was an opening, revealing a black cannon mouth as thick as a fist.
Lanwei knew what he was looking at.
From the notable Magic Power fluctuations of the Magic Cannon, it should be an Epic Level Magic Cannon.
This white Magic Cannon was named Shell Rush Sand.
Lin Da had received it as a reward for his Trust Level and had immediately given it to Tasya.
Level 34, Epic 1 Star.
It could provide a mighty 2800 points of strength.
In comparison, the Sword of Royalty at Lin Da's level 25 could only provide 1200 points of strength.
The equipment level of Shell Rush Sand was only 9 levels higher, yet its strength more than doubled that of the Sword of Royalty.
This was the huge advantage that came from Star Rank.
Not only did adventurers gain more Ability Points when leveling up, but equipment enhancements were also significant.
Meanwhile, due to being hung upside down, Lanwei's first sight was a pair of black high heels. Enjoy more content from My Virtual Library Empire
Inside the shoes were muddy, dirty white stockings.
Lanwei strained to lift his eyes higher and then saw the hem of a maid's skirt.
Despite being in a place as dangerous as Dragon Forest, this 'roasted chicken' still wore high heels, yet not a bit of flesh that should have been exposed was visible, which irritated Lanwei enough to make him want to curse the streets!
He saw Tasya holding a small black leather whip in her hands, her expression cold.
Smack!
Smack smack smack!
Tasya knew this man was ogling her with filthy eyes, and she put her full force into every lash.
Lanwei was soon covered in blood, his arrogant demeanor entirely reined in.
"I'll talk, I'll talk, please just ask your questions quickly..."
Lanwei's voice grew weaker and weaker.
Lin Da gestured to stop Tasya and stepped in front of Lanwei, "Are you the Star Rank that was with Hulus? How are Lulu and the others, did Hulus catch up to them?"
"How could he, that werewolf runs incredibly fast... Eh, you're a Star Rank too? Strange..."
Lanwei paused for a moment, looking dazedly at Lin Da.
Thinking his perception was faulty, he adjusted his mental state slightly with a wink, and probed again for auras.
He found that... Lin Da was still a Star Rank.
A chill went down Lanwei's spine.
Just a short while ago when they had crossed paths, Lin Da had indeed been at level 26.
How could he have advanced to Star Rank in the blink of an eye?
Although the World Tree wasn't lacking in opportunities, chances that could greatly elevate an adventurer's level were few and far between.
What had happened to Lin Da in these short few hours?
Without reason, Lanwei recalled the abrupt disappearance of the Dragon Roar not long ago.
Could it be that the one who had subdued the Forest Dragon was Lin Da?
"Is that so, Lulu and Monica are safe."
Lin Da murmured, relieved in his heart.
"Second question, where are Hulus and your boss, the Demon General Serene?"
Lanwei's attitude was much more respectful, and he replied diligently, "Hulus went another way to chase you guys. I have not seen the Demon General herself; right now, our leader is a witch named Lady Bai Mian!"
After hearing this, Lin Da seemed thoughtful.
My little sister went to another place.
What was she plotting?
"I've told you everything I know, you should let me go now, right?" Lanwei said, hoping for release.
Responding to Lanwei was the blade of the Sword of Royalty.
Lin Da simply slashed Lanwei's neck, delivering a Fatal Strike.
"You...!"
The curse Lanwei was about to utter got stuck in his throat.
The body thudded to the ground.
As he killed another adventurer, Lin Da's inner discomfort lessened significantly.
The constant battles he'd experienced had been sharpening his resolve.
Lin Da shook off his thoughts and said to Tasya: "Let's not bother with Hulus; getting out of Dragon Forest is what matters!"
After dealing with Lanwei and receiving news that Lulu and the others were safe, they did not stop for a moment and rushed towards the outskirts of the Dragon Forest.
...
However, the journey was not smooth.
From the middle level onwards, the number of magical creatures surged.
...
Three hours passed.
"Energy Storage Storm!"
Tasya held up the white Magic Cannon, "Shell Rush Sand," channeling Wind Battle Qi into it, enhancing the next three bullets.
Each bullet was the size of a bowl and hit the obstructing Giant Demon Saw Mushrooms accurately.
-17000!
-17550!
-16890!
The Energy Storage Explosion was a medium-consumption Common Skill, yet it dealt over 50,000 damage.
Lin Da watched this scene and thought to himself that it was no wonder Tasya, known for sustained output with her "Storm" abilities, had a strong stand-still capability, averaging higher damage per second than Lulu and Lia.
"Toxic Purple Mist."
As Lin Da was contemplating, he released his new skill.
The current situation was: he and Tasya were surrounded by two Demon Saw Mushrooms and a pack of Wind Blade Wolves.
The former were Level 30 magical creatures, and although the latter were only Level 25, they were numerous, exceeding thirty.
The Wind Blade Wolves excelled in magic, their wind blades smashing against Lin Da's Verdant Shield, rapidly reducing the barrier's thickness.
Lin Da was not afraid of one or two, but there were so many wind blades that it was like rain.
To counter this, Lin Da chose to use his new skill [Toxic Purple Mist].
He thrust his right hand into the ground and centered at his feet, a thirty-meter diameter, light purple Magic Circle unfurled.
From within the Magic Circle, smoke billowed out in an ink green color.
The Wind Blade Wolves immediately sensed something was amiss, letting out pained whines from their throats.
The Toxic Purple Mist lasted for five minutes, continuously reducing health every second.
This skill could differentiate between friend and foe, as long as Lin Da had previously made a mental mark on his allies, they would not be harmed by the mist.
Not long after, all the Wind Blade Wolves were at critical health, each one listless, their legs trembling.
"Venom Eruption!"
Lin Da pointed his Sword of Royalty forward, and a round purple Array appeared in the air, spraying out like a high-pressure water pipe.
The Level 25 Wind Blade Wolves were instantly killed by Lin Da.
[Kill Wind Blade Wolf x7, obtain 7000 Diamonds!]
Over at Tasya's side, a Demon Saw Mushroom was quickly defeated.
After another minute, all the Wind Blade Wolves and the remaining Demon Saw Mushroom were subdued by them.
Lin Da hastily collected the spoils of war and continued forward.
But for some reason, the closer they got to the periphery of the Dragon Forest, the more numerous and frenzied the magical creatures became.
It was like an unending crop of leeks, one wave after another.
Just a few miles forward, Lin Da was surrounded by a group of Treants.
Treants were Level 28 magical creatures with 100,000 health points.
They wielded large rusty swords, axes, and spears with their dry, wooden limbs.
Their roots moved rapidly, forming a tall wall of wood that blotted out the sky, trapping Lin Da and Tasya in the middle.
"Break out!"
Lin Da took out a Mana Potion and drank it, his spirit rejuvenated.
He threw out his Dark Whip to entangle a Treant, lifting it before slamming it down hard.
With a thud, the Treant broke in half at the waist, struck by Lin Da's Fatal Strike and vanished into ash on the spot.
As Lin Da's level increased, so did his chances of landing a Fatal Strike, especially against lower-level magical creatures.
The Treant might have had 100,000 health points, but many times Lin Da could deal a fatal blow with just a casual strike.
Tasya was even more ferocious, sweeping her Magic Cannon horizontally and felling a row of Treants.
One, ten, thirty, fifty...
Both were Star Rank, and the Level 28 Treants stood no chance against them.
But after the sixtieth, seventieth kill...
Lin Da was almost numb.
How could there still be more?
It was as if all the magical creatures of the forest had gathered here.
The inner parts were slightly better, but the closer to the outer layer, the more numerous the magical creatures.
Initially, Lin Da received 1200 Diamonds for killing a Treant, but later on, it dropped to 700.
After the eightieth kill, it was only 500 Diamonds left.
'If I could use Diamonds to Add Points for Tasya, it would be easy,' Lin Da thought as he slashed through the torso of a Treant while pondering this.
