Chereads / Online Game: God-level Assassin, I Am the Shadow! / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 "The Land Abandoned by the Gods, Shell Town"

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4 "The Land Abandoned by the Gods, Shell Town"

"To continue evolving the Stealth skill, 3 Evolution Points are required."

"I only have 2 points left now..."

Qin Feng could only choose to evolve the 'Backstab Enhancement' skill.

——

[You have consumed 1 Evolution Point, with 1 point remaining.]

[Initial Skill: Backstab Enhancement (Poor Quality → Common Quality). Passive Effect: When launching an attack from behind the target, the damage is increased by 10% → 15%.]

——

Qin Feng was quite satisfied with the evolution effect of the 'Backstab Enhancement' skill.

Although the damage was only increased by 5%, it could be foreseen how powerful this skill would be if it continued to evolve.

"The profession's passive doubles the damage."

"If the damage increase of the Backstab Enhancement skill evolves to 100%..."

"Then combined, it would be four times the damage!"

Qin Feng, who had struggled in the "Abandoned by the Gods" game for nine years and was among the top 100 in the world, knew the effects of skill values all too well.

Now, Qin Feng was a bit curious.

If these skills continued to evolve, wouldn't they surpass the highest Immortal grade?

"Take the Stealth skill for example. If it keeps evolving, the duration will get longer and the cooldown will get shorter..."

"Could it reach a state with no cooldown?"

"For the Backstab Enhancement skill, if it continues to evolve, could the damage increase reach 100% or even higher?"

Qin Feng was looking forward to it very much.

After all, in his previous life, he had never heard that skills could evolve like this.

Whether it was equipment or skill books, whatever grade they dropped from monsters, they would always remain that grade and couldn't be changed.

But now...

Qin Feng's Primordial Initial Talent had completely exceeded common sense!

Infinite Evolution.

From now on, his skills would crush anyone else's.

"Almost done. I can enter the game now..."

Qin Feng took a look.

He still had 1 Evolution Point left.

But evolving the 'Stealth' skill required 3 points, and evolving the 'Backstab Enhancement' skill required 2 points, so there were no skills available for him to evolve for the time being.

When he decided to enter the game, a grayish-white input box popped up in front of his eyes:

[Please enter your game code name]

In the "Abandoned by the Gods" game, every player needed to choose a code name, which was similar to the online game nickname in reality.

Nicknames couldn't be repeated. If they were, a string of numbers would be added after the code name to distinguish them.

"I'll just call myself 'Shadow'."

Qin Feng raised his hand and wrote these two black characters in the grayish-white input box.

After he finished writing, the input box dissipated like smoke...

——

[Your code name is: Shadow]

[Entering the Land Abandoned by the Gods...]

——

The darkness in front of Qin Feng gradually dissipated like thick smoke.

He gradually had a feeling of standing on solid ground.

As the surrounding darkness disappeared, what appeared in front of him was a dilapidated town. It was night in the town, covered with a layer of moonlight, like a silver gauze, making the whole town look desolate and dilapidated...

Qin Feng was standing in the central square of this town.

In the square, there were several players in black robes, looking around in a daze.

As for NPCs...

The NPCs in the "Abandoned by the Gods" game were not programmed existences but intelligent creatures of other civilizations.

When dealing with those NPCs, one had to be extremely cautious!

Otherwise, all your lifespan could be tricked away in an instant, and you would regret it too late.

Of course, in this kind of novice town, you wouldn't see any NPCs at all.

The Blue Star players who had just arrived in the Land Abandoned by the Gods had zero tradable lifespan and were almost worthless to the NPCs...

——

[Welcome to the Land Abandoned by the Gods.]

[This is a dilapidated land with countless monsters running rampant. Please be careful, as they are always ready to tear you apart and take away your lifespan...]

[Leave the town, kill monsters, and you will obtain tradable lifespan.]

[But if you die in the game, half of your remaining lifespan (including both tradable and non-tradable lifespan) will be deducted.]

The familiar system prompts reached Qin Feng's mind.

If it was the first time entering the "Abandoned by the Gods" game, one might be very surprised.

But Qin Feng had no emotional fluctuations at all.

He just checked the map.

——

[Shell Town: Peaceful Area (There are no monsters in this area, and players cannot attack each other)]

[This area is a mild area, and the lifespan loss speed in the area: 1 times]

——

"Sure enough, the place has changed."

"Shell Town..."

Qin Feng muttered to himself.

Due to the different time points of entering the "Abandoned by the Gods" game, the place where he arrived was also different.

In the Land Abandoned by the Gods, there were hundreds of millions of novice towns in total.

Novice towns were also commonly known as'safe areas'!

Each novice town could accommodate a maximum of one thousand people.

After it was full, the players who entered later would be assigned to other initial towns.

"However, the initial towns are distinguished by region and entry time."

"So, the players in Shell Town are also from the Great Xia and Jianghai City."

Qin Feng took a look.

Currently, 127 people had already entered Shell Town.

Qin Feng was the 128th.

"Attribute panel."

After reading the map information, Qin Feng immediately checked his own attributes.

In the "Abandoned by the Gods" game...

Attributes were of vital importance!

——

[Code Name: Shadow]

[Profession: Shadow]

[Level: 1]

[Non-Tradable Lifespan: 75 years]

[Tradable Lifespan: 0]

[Strength: 10 (+3)]

[Constitution: 10 (+3)]

[Agility: 10 (+8)]

[Spirit: 10 (+5)]

[Free Attribute Points: 5 points]

——

All players initially had 10 points for each of the four-dimensional attributes.

The numbers in parentheses were the profession bonuses.

"The Shadow profession is truly worthy of being a hidden profession!"

"The initial attribute bonuses are actually this high?"

Qin Feng was shocked.

You know, for his Warrior profession in his previous life, the initial bonuses were only 3 points for Strength and 3 points for Constitution.

But for the Shadow profession...

It added 3 points to both Constitution and Strength, and also added 8 points to Agility and 5 points to Spirit!

"The Strength attribute affects physical attack power."

"The Constitution attribute affects physical defense and hit points."

"The Agility attribute affects movement speed, attack speed, and skill casting speed."

"The Spirit attribute affects elemental attack power and elemental resistance."

Qin Feng knew the function of each attribute very clearly.

In his previous life, many people chose to add points to Strength or Spirit at the beginning to increase physical/magical attack power.

But in fact...

Agility was the top priority!

"The monsters in the 'Abandoned by the Gods' game are extremely powerful!"

"Even an ordinary little monster can easily kill novice players."

"In the early stage, if you want to ensure survival, you must add points to Agility. No matter what profession you are, only by having an advantage in speed can you have the possibility of killing monsters without taking damage!"

Many players had a natural misunderstanding and thought that damage was the most important thing.

But you should know that in the "Abandoned by the Gods" game, death would deduct lifespan.

The importance of lifespan goes without saying.

Without the guarantee of speed, in many cases, you could only die in despair.

"As long as you're fast enough, you can attack when advancing and defend when retreating."

"On the contrary, the damage increase brought by adding points to Strength is somewhat dispensable..."

"For me, it's even more so."

"The Bronze-level Stealth skill has already added 90 points of attack power when breaking invisibility, which is equivalent to the effect of 90 points of Strength!"

"I don't lack damage at all in the early stage, and I don't need to add points to Strength."

"Speed is the only essential thing!"
