(Remark 3: Comparison of the skill level and equipment type—ordinary skill book=advanced skill=rare type, refined level=level-4 skill=silver type, rare level=level-5 skill=golden type, master=level-6 skill=faerie level, master level=level-7 skill=myth)

“Brother Xiao, I’ve got news!”

Xiao Feng just left the Holy City and was busy creeping on the second floor of the underground palace when he got the call from Qian Duoduo.

“What news?” Xiao Feng didn’t come to his senses, asking randomly while disassembling the entry-level equipment with forging skills.

“A way to anti-cloaking!” Qian Duoduo said in a low voice as if asking for credit.

“What? Tell me about it!”

Indeed, Xiao Feng became excited at once.

“It’s about Han Feng, the guy who is so mean. You know, the level-20 hunter has a skill of Real Vision Traps to counteract cloaking. Just now I checked his concealed profession with Identify Skill and found that he also had a passive skill of Real Vision Realm. Moreover, the skill level is rather high. I think it is enough to counteract the faerie-level cloaking.” Qian Duoduo said.

“Han Feng? Okay, is he with you now? Ask him to wait for me at the Transmission Formation of Tianlong City.” Xiao Feng thought for a while and said.

“Yeah, he is consigning equipment for sales on commission here. I’ll pass your words to him.” Qian Duoduo cut off the call then.

After clearing up the creep group in front of him at the fastest speed and getting all the equipment, Xiao Feng took out the Town Portal Scroll and returned to the Tianlong City.

“Boss, I heard you were looking for me?”

Han Feng was waiting at the Transmission Formation. Upon seeing Xiao Feng, he ran over quickly.

“What level of cloaking skill can your Real Vision skill counteract?” Xiao Feng directly asked him without any bullshit.

Han Feng’s equipment was not bad. After all, he had gained immortal equipment in the sever-wide Treasure Hunt activity. The equipment all over his body turned out to be better than Si Yejing’s. Basically, all his equipment was golden level, except that the accessory parts were mixed with silver level and blue suit.

“Real Vision skill? Mine is a gift of the concealed profession with master-level Real Vision effect.” Han Feng explained.

“Master-level? That’s enough. Come with me. Help me to defeat a boss that can cloak himself.” Xiao Feng felt delighted and said.

“Okay, Boss.”

Han Feng agreed with excitement. Killing boss was certainly an attractive thing for a player. More importantly, he was going to team up with Xiao Feng.

Even the No. 1 Player in the Huaxia District had to find a helper so as to kill this boss. It couldn’t be compared with those ordinary small bosses.

Just by imagining what equipment would drop, Han Feng just couldn’t wait to kill the boss.

What? Immortal equipment? Artifact? It couldn’t be!

Very soon, Xiao Feng and Han Feng were transmitted to a remote town and then headed towards the Bone Mountains.

They spent quite some time on the way, because Han Feng didn’t have a mount and had to run himself. According to his explanation, due to his profession of ranger, he couldn’t equip himself with a mount. This shortcoming kind of offset the strength of his concealed profession.

Xiaoxue had an advanced riding skill, which allowed two players to ride on it together. However, Xiao Feng didn’t feel comfortable with two men riding on the same mount. In addition, Xiaoxue didn’t agree on that, so he gave up summoning Xiaoxue and ran with Han Feng.

Luckily, Han Feng moved so fast that he could catch up with Xiao Feng with super agility. Hence, they didn’t waste too much time.

After passing some capable players who were gaining levels near the Bone Mountains, they arrived at the entrance of the grand underground grave.

“Advanced map! Boss, the boss you are coping with is not easy!”

Due to his good eyesight, Han Feng instantly realized that the grand underground grave was an advanced map and said with amazement and temptation.

“We may get artifact on this map.” Xiao Feng didn’t intend to beguile him. After all, he would find it out after artifact dropped.

“Holy crap! Artifact!”

Han Feng inhaled and quickened his pulse. With his eyes glittering, he looked to Xiao Feng carefully.

“Well… Boss, could you please give me a small share of the harvests? If any bad immortal equipment drops and you don’t want it, may I have it?”

“I only want the artifact. If any immortal equipment drops, it’s all yours.” Xiao Feng said randomly. After all, no immortal equipment would drop. Hence, he agreed on Han Feng’s request directly.

“Great! Boss, I will follow you in future! I will never disobey you!” Han Feng started to flatter him at once.

“Cut the crap. Let’s start creeping. We cannot enter the next floor until we clear up all the creeps on the first floor. Just help me gather all the creeps and no need DPS.” Xiao Feng went into the first floor of the underground palace first.

There were no other players on the first floor of the underground palace. In fact, this advanced map of the grand underground grave was not easy to tackle. Xiao Feng was tremendously careful and managed to survive with great efforts when he first came here.

Currently, no one could cope with a map full of elite creeps higher than the 20 level and below the 30 level as well as bosses. Neither could Xiao Feng.

However, Xiao Feng could get to survive by positioning and hiding, extremely high efficiency of creeping and fast speed of clearing up creep groups.

Other players would either stay at the entrance of the map to pull the creeps and killed them one by one or adopted the tactics of courting death. They would run into the map and pulled the creeps near the entrance inwards. Then they would die in there and kept the creeps that lost the hatred inside too. In this way, they could stand a position on the map and then started to pull the creeps one by one and killed them.

Whichever method they chose, they required the capability and coordination of the team. One or two players couldn’t make it.

The Wild Wolf Gang also paid a high price for standing a position on the first floor of the underground palace. Moreover, they had taken advantage of Xiao Feng’s fruit—when they entered the map, the creep groups on the first floor of the underground palace were more or less cleared up. Hence, they kept a foothold on the map in light of their numerical advantage.

The advanced map was difficult to pass, which could be learnt from the Jungle of Trapped Beast. Such a grand guild of the Wolf with their core members being top players was stuck on the second floor of the Jungle of Trapped Beast and didn’t dare to go deeper. They could only dare to stay around the entrance and kill the creeps and bosses left behind.

The threat and hardship of advanced bosses were fatal. It was not difficult for Xiao Feng but for ordinary players, it was catastrophic. Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many incidents of team blowing.

Take opening the level-25 trail of instance zone as instance, a level-25 boss could ace a 20-player trail opening team for numerous times. It was basically mission impossible without sacrificing enough players for a way out.

Thus, there was no need to mention the horror of a level-30 boss. Moreover, on the advanced map, the level-30 boss didn’t stay alone.

For example, on the first floor of the underground palace, more than four level-30 bosses were getting together. Particularly, there was a Fear Enchantress with silver type, who would definitely ace a team with tens of thousands of players!

“Holy crap! Boss! Why are there so many bosses on the map! The creep groups are so densely gathered! It is too hard! Can we really pass this?”

Indeed, Han Feng was dumbfounded upon entering the first floor of the grand underground palace. Looking at various undead souls in the palace, he swallowed the saliva and said unconfidently.

How was he able to gather creeps? As an archer, he would be sec-killed if any boss hit him or he was besieged by a creep group.

“Then just keep yourself alive.”

After all, Xiao Feng didn’t expect him to help creep. What he needed was Han Feng’s Real Vision skill. After saying something randomly, he rushed into the creep group and threw out a Holy Light Skill, drawing the hatred of all the creeps and bosses within his eyesight.

“-1203!”

“-1203!”

“-1476!”

“-24360!”

“-2011!”

“-1643!”

“-30253!”

…

The figures showed up as if a red cloud floated on the first floor of the underground palace. Han Feng, who just wanted to get out of the map for fear, suddenly saw the sea of damage figures and was stupefied instantly with no words uttered.

As far as he could see, not only thousands of creeps were attacked by Xiao Feng simultaneously but also their HP was all sharply reduced.

“Crap! Boss, you are so awesome! You are so impressive!” Han Feng shouted madly behind at once.

Xiao Feng’s Holy Light Skill was increased to the third level with a 20% healing effect and more than 200 points of spirit. Likewise, the damage point was also like that, so the healing effect and damage were both horrifying.

Within ten minutes, the creep groups on the first floor of the underground palace were more or less cleared up by Xiao Feng. Meanwhile, Han Feng was sensible to pull the creeps hiding at the corner and left behind proactively. After all, without the creep groups, there wouldn’t be any danger for him.

Counting the time of clearing up equipment, materials and golden coins, the first floor of the underground palace was completely emptied within half an hour. Han Feng was the most excited one. He gained a full bag of golden coins and equipment and most importantly, the greatly high experience points acquired from the creep groups made him gain one level up.

Actually, not only Han Feng but also Xiao Feng increased his experience bar. In addition to creeping on the second floor of the underground palace these days, Xiao Feng was about to break through the 29 level.

What astonished Han Feng most was time! Leveling up within less than half an hour! It was just like having a plug-in!

Han Feng finally understood why Master Healer could become the No. 1 Player in the Huaxia District and even the whole server. His creeping efficiency was incomparable!

However, very soon, after they reached the second floor of the underground palace, Han Feng couldn’t laugh at all, because his bag only had 50 grids of space and it was too small for so much equipment!

He gave an extremely regretful expression. His bag was full of equipment, the worst of which was blue suit of rare type. Yet, he could only throw away the blue suits and replaced them with silver-level equipment. He felt so hurt for every piece of equipment he threw away.

Moreover, it was the first time that Han Feng found the problem of creeping at a too fast speed. That was, he didn’t have enough time to pick up the equipment. A lot of equipment was piled up and even got overlapped. The equipment was refreshed by the system before he could find that of better type.

There were fewer creeps on the second floor than the first floor. Because Xiao Feng kept creeping every day, the creeps were cleared up within over 10 minutes. Afterwards, in the familiar grey mist, the assassin guardian showed up again.
