The quality of the treasure chests I open will always increase by 3.

With a mournful cry, the cheetah died.

Lin Yuan, however, started looking through the battle records.

You hit the Forest Cheetah, dealing 1879 damage.

Your Devastating Storm struck the Forest Cheetah, dealing 9899 damage.

Your Blood Shadow Strike hit the Forest Cheetah, dealing 899 damage.

what!

Therefore, what just jumped up was the damage number.

But, since the SuperStar game merged with reality, haven't the damage numbers stopped popping up?

Why did it jump again now?

Mystery!

Because this is a secret realm, possibly still a "virgin territory" in the game, unaffected by reality, no damage numbers will appear when fighting monsters in other places, even in dungeons. But this place is different; it retains its original form.

Therefore, he had just seen the monster's health bar, although he had cleared it out in an instant.

Yes, that's why the monsters respawn extremely quickly here, because this is the old system.

Lin Yuan nodded and checked; the ordinary monster hadn't dropped anything.

carry on.

He walked a little further and immediately discovered a wolf den. Overjoyed, he rushed over and began hacking wildly with his sword.

Now, a large number of damage numbers jumped up.

Destruction Storm and Blood Shadow Impact are both area-of-effect damage skills. They are guaranteed to trigger with normal attacks, and once you use skills like Sweep or Cleave, they will still hit in waves, leaving you with a barrage of damage numbers.

It was fun, but it also turned into light pollution!

No wonder the damage numbers stopped popping up after the game merged with reality; indeed, it had a huge impact on the field of vision, making it very uncomfortable to watch.

There was another wolf pack nearby. Lin Yuan ran over and wiped out the wolf pack in no time. When he returned, he found that the first wolf den had been completely respawned.

Holy crap, if wild monsters had such a high spawn rate, how much would leveling efficiency increase?

For well-equipped players, the difficulty in leveling up is not that monsters are hard to kill or that killing monsters takes too long, but rather that there are no monsters to kill.

Here, the problem of having no monsters to fight is naturally solved.

Lin Yuan kept killing monsters back and forth like this.

Although he only gets 4 times the experience even if he kills level 60 monsters, level 50 and 60 monsters give more experience than level 30 monsters, and by a significant amount. Multiplying that by 5, the experience gain is substantial.

After all, he's only level 21!

Just half an hour later, a golden light flashed across his body.

Congratulations on reaching level 22!

He received a 95% experience bonus from clearing the Gold rating dungeon, and the monsters in the dungeon also gave him about 0.5%. In addition, he had previously killed some monsters in the Tower of Babel, so he was only 4% short of leveling up.

I gained 4% experience points in just half an hour! Wow, that's impressive, truly impressive!

The efficiency of grinding here is just as good as in the Tower of Babel.

It would be great if we could unlock more secret realm maps.

Why don't you make a wish?

Lin Yuan pondered for a moment, then decided to focus on getting all the gold-rated dungeons at level 30 first before considering these other things.

Before he knew it, another two hours had passed, and his experience points had quietly reached 15% of level 22. Suddenly, a notification popped up in front of him: The Silver BOSS Forest Walker has spawned.

Lin Yuan opened the map and saw a flashing red dot in the upper left corner.

That's where the BOSS is located.

Lin Yuan ran towards the red dot immediately.

He inevitably encountered monsters along the way, but he didn't stop. He would slash at them with his sword, and regardless of whether they were dead or alive, he would continue on his way.

Therefore, when the green dot representing him and the red dot representing the BOSS overlap on the map, a large group of monsters will follow behind him, forming a magnificent "train".

Lin Yuan didn't care. He turned around and slashed a few times. Damage numbers popped up everywhere, and soon all the monsters fell to the ground.

He looked at the BOSS.

It looks like a towering tree, but the crown forms a human face, and the trunk has branches that have turned into arms, but instead of fingers, they are tangled branches. It is not rooted in the earth, but stands on the ground, and its roots have turned into tentacles, densely packed, as if sliding on the ground.

A mere Silver Boss.

Moreover, it's been weakened and can't be compared to the Silver Boss in the wild.

on!

Lin Yuan took a step forward and charged towards the BOSS, then slashed at it with his sword.

He put on silver armor on his first day in the game and opened dozens of silver treasure chests, but this was his first time fighting a silver BOSS, and it was a one-on-one battle.

Ding!

The BOSS swung an arm to block the attack. The tree trunk seemed to be cast in iron, and countless sparks flew out. But the BOSS immediately let out a wail, because with this sword strike, the BOSS's arm was almost severed.

Fortunately, it looks like a tree, and its internal tubers are not much like those of a tree. Its trunk is not made of flesh and bone; it really is a tree trunk, just much harder than a normal tree.

No matter how tough it is, how can a mere silver-level weapon withstand a star weapon?

With just one sword strike, one of its arms was rendered useless.

However, the BOSS has many arms; even if one is useless, there are still more than a dozen. Moreover, the useless arm was emitting a green light, and in just a few seconds, the break healed.

Lin Yuan smiled. Had he recovered?

Let's see if I can cut faster, or you can recover faster!

Find the weaknesses!

At the same time as this skill was activated, Lin Yuan also turned on the special effects of his equipment.

Boots of Giants increase size and damage by 100%; Gloves of Haste increase attack speed by 9 times.

Then, he unleashed his skills one by one.

Dance of Thunder!

A brutal blow!

Cleave!

Within 10 seconds, he dealt tons of damage. After 10 seconds, although he could only use basic attacks to transition, the damage did not drop much. At 20 attacks per second, even basic attacks could deal incredible damage. With the Blood Shadow Sword's special effects activated, the damage was still ridiculously high.

Ten seconds later, the speed-up glove's effect wore off, and his damage dropped sharply.

Indeed, basic attacks deal the majority of the damage.

Lin Yuan glanced at it and saw that although the damage bonuses of skills like Thunder Dance and Savage Strike were very high, due to the cooldown time, the damage they caused over a longer period of time was far less than that of a normal attack, especially after activating the Acceleration Gloves.

—After this piece of equipment becomes obsolete, you must melt down its special effects and apply them to other equipment.

That's awesome!

After this burst of damage, the BOSS's health bar was reduced by one-third. This shows Lin Yuan's extremely high attack power on the one hand, and the high health value of the BOSS on the other hand. This burst of damage did not take it down.

However, the BOSS was also enraged, its whole body radiating a blood-red light. With a series of booming sounds, it swung its arms and slapped down at Lin Yuan.
