Chapter 45 - Chapter 45: Descent

[Received the rare level title - "Cocktail Connoisseur"]

[You have tasted a true masterpiece of the cocktail world. Having tasted an incredible and multifaceted flavor, you have greatly improved your understanding of cocktails and all your stats were increased by 2 points.]

Seeing the series of notifications, a bright smile appeared on Stroph's face. In the next moment he felt himself growing stronger, it seemed to him that every cell of his body was filled with power.

Stroph was waiting until this stirring feeling was over and said quietly: .

[Name: Stroph White (History Collector)]

[Race: Man]

[Level - 7(167/7500 exp)]

[Titles - 4]

[Histories - 11]

[Strength - 16]

[Dexterity - 18]

[Endurance - 15]

[Intellect - 20]

[Luck - 0]

[Spirit - 0]

[Negative Energy - 50]

[Skills - 3]

Stroph was very much pleased with this development, you could tell that he had become stronger, drinking cocktails and enjoying a rainbow of flavors from dozens of types of berries.

But he knew that he needed to move on, he was able to control Negative Energy but he had not received Spirit yet, he was, of course, still a novice at it, but it was a great power.

Stroph began to contemplate what he should do next, which caused him to frown heavily.

"Violet, I need to talk to you." His voice was hard and clear.

Upon hearing his words, the expression on Violet's face immediately became serious, "Master, what`s happened?"

Stroph didn't answer her anything, but only transferred her money, from which the girl was in a real shock.

"Mas-ter.., what are you...". Violet was badly shaken, she didn't see how much money Stroph had transferred to her, but the voice alert didn't take long.

[900,000 sempets has been credited to the account.]

Upon hearing such numbers Violet naturally forgot how to breathe and just didn't know what to say, but she didn't need to.

"Go back to town, buy a house and do whatever you want to. For certain reasons I need to go to a pretty dangerous place, alone." Stroph sighed and continued: "And no objections, you're too weak at the moment and if you come with me, you'll just be dead before you can even blink."

After a couple of minutes Violet came to her senses, pulled herself together and said: "I see, thank you for your trust".

After Violet's words, Stroph rose from his seat and walked out of the bar without saying anything.

Stroph wasn't happy about his decision, but it was simply necessary in that situation and there was nothing to be done about it.

He immediately answered:

Stroph wanted to go down the funnel and fight the scarier monsters. He knew that in order to get perimortem Spirit he had to be on the cusp of death and fight to the death for life.

Before descending, Stroph decided to prepare, but he was not going to arm with weapons or ammunition, but with information.

In almost every store you can find information about the many monsters, plants and rare minerals that could be found on the various levels of the Farm.

The lower the level, the more expensive the information, because it was very difficult to collect data in such dangerous places.

Stroph was well aware that Flesh Hunter he was lucky enough to meet in the very first zone was only an anomaly, and basically he would not be able to find strong opponents on the first level of the funnel .

After a couple of hours, he bought all the necessary information spending 80,000 sempets on it.

. With these words, Stroph headed to the very first zone, where he had fought with Flesh Hunter.

He bought information about one of the third level zones of the Farm. The location where he was going to, was called the "Water Demon Stone Forest". The weakest enemy Stroph could find in that location was a monster of the third rank and the strongest was the fifth rank monster.

There were only two ways into the "Water Demon Stone Forest". You had to go through many zones on the first level, then do the same on the second level and slowly reach the third level, where you still have to go to the "Water Demon Stone Forest".

But, Stroph had chosen this location as his starting point for a reason, the second path was much faster and more dangerous.

After a couple of hours he reached the edge of the first area, coming out of the forest thicket he reached an incredibly long and huge stone cliff.

And it was Stroph`s short way.

Looking down, he smirked contentedly and stepped into the air, beginning his precipitous descent.

He didn't have a parachute or any other devices, but he absolutely was not suicidal, for everything had been calculated.

Thanks to an incredible geographical coincidence, there was a flower just below the cliff of some unreal size. But Stroph's plan was not to fall on its leaves and land safely, the height was too great, so even if he had fallen into the soft fluff, he would still have crashed to his death.

After a minute of falling, Stroph stopped enjoying the gusts of wind and shouted loudly: "Grab it!"

In the next second, the three white straps on his coat, stretched out sharply and grabbed onto the nearest dandelion seed, hovering quietly in the air.

"Snow White Darkness" made the best of it and after a couple of minutes of flight on a kind of parachute, Stroph landed right in front of the giant, mutated dandelion.

But, the descent to the dandelion was only the beginning, for there was another reason why this route was not popular with you who wanted to get to the "Water Demon Stone Forest."

The words of "Snow White Darkness" didn't embarrass Stroph in the slightest, for he had known long ago who would be waiting for him.

. Stroph immediately decided to see how strong the monster before him was.

[Name: Guardian of the Giant Dandelion]

[Race: Insects]

[Strength - 31]

[Dexterity - 39]

[Endurance - 31]

[Intellect - 8]

"A stupid, but extremely fast monster of the fourth rank." After these words, Stroph quickly pulled out the "Last Light" and fired a full clip into the giant purple mantis, which had been scrutinizing it the whole time.

The mantis blocked each round by sticking its sharp blades forward on its front paws.

"Not a scratch, just super." After Stroph's words, it was the mantis' turn. The giant monster, five meters tall, lunged straight at him with the lightning speed.

But its razor-sharp blades didn't hit Stroph, instead they plunged deep into the ground.

Stroph did the same trick that he had done in the fighting with Flesh Hunter, the Negative Energy headed to his feet, and then he leapt forward with incredible speed.

He wasn't about to run away at all. After dodging the monster's attack, he jumped high up, right up to the mantis' head.

"Well, hello there." After these words, he presented the muzzle of his revolver directly to the monster's head and a black haze suddenly appeared next to the drum of the "Last Light" then, quickly sucked into it, filling it completely.

The next second there was a deafening explosion and the head of the purple mantis was exploded, the recoil was so strong that Stroph flew several meters away.

[Ten units of Negative Energy was expended]

Stroph wasn`t worried about this waste, but the next moment he realized he had been too careless.

As the moment later the mantis' incredibly sharp blade came crashing right down on him.
