Chapter 18: Breakthrough Opportunities
Instead of giving up in a hurry, Rhoda used his stealth skills and elite goblins to entangle with the fish-man monster for nearly an hour, and finally determined that with his current means, he would not be able to break through the encirclement of the fish-man monster no matter what.
Although the gap between some fish-man monsters is relatively large, there is definitely no gap that is more than sixteen meters, and this is still in the case of two monsters facing away from Rhoda at the same time, and as long as any of the fish-man monsters are alarmed, Rhoda will be dead and alive, and the elite goblins will not be able to save him.
However, after this hour, Rhoda did not gain nothing, as long as the effect of the stealth skill was a little better, so that he could get closer to the fish-man monster, it was not completely hopeless.
It's not impossible to improve the effect of stealth skills, as long as the stealth skills are upgraded.
The question is how long does it take to level up the stealth skill?
Rhoda didn't know, but he didn't hesitate to walk back, through the gray fog, back to the area where Ryan Village was located.
It's better to act directly, even if it takes more time, he will upgrade his stealth skills and escape through the army surrounded by monsters!
"I remember passing by a forest before, and there was a group of level 10 fiery monkeys."
Following his memory, Rhoda returned to the woods. The woods were dense with foliage, and most of the area inside was in shadows, and Rhoda changed into the Shadow Shadow Ring and slashed at a fiery monkey at the edge of the woods with an axe.
The fiery monkey is covered in fiery red fur, and its attack power is strong, and after being hit, the player will be in a three-second burn state, losing 30 blood per second, and if it is attacked multiple times in a short period of time, the blood loss state will also be superimposed, which is quite difficult to deal with.
However, Rhoda is now wearing Goblin Leather Armor and Goblin Shoes, as well as the Golden Axe of the Greedy and the Shadow Shadow Ring, two big killing weapons, if you have to deal with this level 10 ordinary monster, it is really sorry for the equipment on your body.
He can only run for his life when he sees the fish-man monster, but this hot monkey can only face him with the life of being abused!
The Shadow Shadow Ring greatly increases Rhoda's output, Rhoda can kill a fiery monkey with two to three axes, and if you are lucky, you can directly kill a critical hit.
often rises rapidly, but Rhoda is gradually becoming weak.
He has been using stealth skills continuously, but even if the experience points on his body are already 10% of level 10, the system still prompts that the experience points are not enough to consume!
It wasn't until nearly twenty minutes that Rhoda's experience had reached level 10 and 31%, and the system finally showed a prompt that he consumed experience points and improved his stealth skill proficiency!
The experience bar is emptied again, leaving only a pitiful 1%, and the acquisition of a proficiency in stealth skills directly consumes 30% of his experience.
"The proficiency has increased so much at once!"
But when Rhoda looked at the proficiency of stealth skills, he was also shocked!
This time, the acquisition of proficiency is directly as much as 5%! In other words, if you get it 20 times, you can level up your stealth skills!
"Whatever! That's a good thing! ”
Rhoda quickly calculated that he could increase his proficiency by 15% in one hour, and in just over 6 hours, his stealth skills would be upgraded, much faster than he expected.
With the target in sight, Rhoda is full of momentum to kill monsters, and has fought with the fiery monkey a lot, and is becoming more familiar with its special surname, and gaining experience faster.
Time passed little by little, and the real time was approaching 12 midnight, when the dark night in the zero era was gradually falling, and the surroundings began to be dark.
In this dark environment, the player's vision is greatly reduced, and the monster can only be seen faintly twenty meters away, and it is completely invisible at a distance.
However, Rhoda also found that in the dark night environment, the Shadow Shadow Ring can fully exert its abilities without worrying about the appearance of negative statuses.
And Luo Da also noticed that day and night, the same kind of monster will also have different reactions, and the fiery monkey in front of him seems to be a lot duller at night, and it is easier to kill.
System Prompt: Congratulations! The skill level of "Stealth" has been increased to "Beginner", and the effect of the skill has been increased!
With Rhoda's unremitting efforts, it took almost six hours, and before arriving at one o'clock in the middle of the night, the stealth skill was finally upgraded!
Stealth (Beginner): Hides itself in shadows of light and darkness so that enemies cannot detect its presence, and the effect of the skill is removed when attacking or being attacked. This skill requires a dagger or crossbow weapon to be used, and while stealth, the player's movement speed is increased by 15%, the damage taken is increased by 20%, the skill effect lasts for 3 minutes, and the skill cooldown is 5 minutes.
After looking at the stealth skills, on the surface, only the movement speed has increased by 5%, and the stealth effect has to be improved, and he has to test it himself.
Instead of continuing to kill monsters, Rhoda returned to the swamp plains.
Sneak!
Front! 12 m ...... 10 m ...... 8 meters!
Back! 10 m ...... 8 m ...... 6 meters!
After repeated tests, after the skill is upgraded, the stealth effect has been increased significantly, whether it is the front or the back, it can get closer to the monster by 2 meters!
And because it's at night, the movements of these fish-man monsters are also like fiery monkeys, a lot slower, in the side of the warning range, compared to the day, but much weaker, in the daytime, even on the side, the fish-man monster's warning range and the front is not much different, and now, the side of the warning range, sandwiched between the front and the back, diving close to 7 meters, will be discovered.
Another point, because the fish-man monster has become sluggish, the encirclement they have formed together has also been relaxed, during the day, the distance between several fish-man monsters will hardly change, but at night, there may be a fish-man monster walking a few steps, and the other is a state of moving a few seconds slower, so that Rhoda has a few seconds to drill.
If you want to break through the encirclement of fish-man monsters, you can only take advantage of the night!
Roda clearly understands that he can't break through at night, let alone during the day!
But at night, not only the monsters were affected, but Rhoda's field of vision was also reduced to the limit, once he entered the monster group, he could only take one step at a time, and the monster distribution state at a distance could not be seen clearly at all, once he broke into the dense monster group, it was a dead end.
Despite this, Rhoda decided to start breaking through the encirclement of the fish-man monsters.
If you want to break through the encirclement, the key is to catch the moment when the fish-man monster turns around, turns sideways, and moves between each other.
It's easy to say, but when it comes to doing, Rhoda knows it's not easy.
So Rhoda was still patient and began to practice at the edge of the fish-man monster pile.
Practice observing with a monster...... Practice observing with two monsters...... Follow three monsters!
Death! Resurrection! Death!
One monster is very simple, and after spending some time with the two monsters, Rhoda gradually got used to it, and even if they were discovered by monsters, they could escape with the Shadow Shadow Ring and the Elite Goblin.
But while following the movements of three monsters and four monsters at the same time, changing his position, Rhoda began to die like crazy.
Dying again and again, and resurrecting again and again, Rhoda deeply realized that he must always maintain the highest vigilance, observe the action status of the monsters around him within 360 degrees, and when the monsters move, he must make the most accurate response at the first time!
A little slack, death! Watch the loopholes, die! Reaction hesitation, death! Make the wrong decision, die!
In just three hours, most of the night has passed, and Rhoda has died dozens of times, and his equipment has exploded again and again.
After such a concentrated practice, in the third hour and a half, that is, at half past four in real time, things took a turn for the better.
The frequency of his deaths began to decrease, and among the monsters, the survival time gradually increased.
Five o'clock in the morning.
Luo Da felt that the movements of the fish-man monsters around him seemed to be much simpler, no longer so unpredictable, and he had a sense of knowing every action of the fish-man monsters.
In the dark of night, sneaking in the center of four or five fish-man monsters, Rhoda kept changing positions, but as if he wasn't there, the fish-man monsters completely ignored his presence.
Ten minutes have passed, and Rhoda is still alive!
It works!
Rhoda decides to break through the encirclement of fish-man monsters before daylight falls!
