Samsara Online
chapter-34

Xie Feng applied some force in his right hand and the huge carbon black door opened slowly while generating a creaking sound, as if it had been closed for a seemingly indeterminate amount of time.

*Bang!!*

A loud sound was produced when both sides of the double door hit the walls.

Xie Feng entered with cautious steps into the room illuminated by a dim blue light generated by the torches.

[Ding!... You have entered the first level of the SSS range dungeon.]

Xie Feng's steps stopped abruptly at the unexpected announcement of the system.

'SSS range dungeon?', as Xie Feng tried to find an answer to his questions, a black magic circle with several engraved runes lit up in the center of the room.

Seeing that he apparently would not have the time to think too much, Xie Feng improved his grip on the sword in his left hand and squinted as he observed the situation in front of him.

*Swoosh!*

With a strong burst of light, the magic circle disappeared. In its place, a single monster appeared.

The appearance of this monster was similar to that of a bull, but it was standing on 2 legs instead of 4. It was about 2 meters high and looked extremely robust.

Xie Feng did not hesitate and used the skill of inspection on the monster in front of him:

[Guardian Ghost: BOSS]

[Level: 10]

[Grade: 3 SUNS]

[HP: 7000]

(Skills):

[Minor Blessing of the Fallen Angel (Passive): Increases the speed of movement +20.]

[Charge (Active): Run towards the enemy in a straight line. Increase the movement speed 30 points for 5 meters. Use Rate: Low.]

Xie Feng was surprised after seeing the statistics of the BOSS that appeared in front of him. A grade 3 SUN monster usually needs a normal team of 5 people to have a chance of defeating it.

Naturally, there are exceptions to this rule, such as the group of 3 people that Xie Feng met the first day he started Samsara Online. With good equipment, skill and resonance between teammates the possibility of winning exists, but the consumption of potions will be terribly high and a single mistake means the death of the whole group.

However, this Guardian Ghost has a passive blessing and an active ability. Both skills are movement skills.

In other words, this Guardian Ghost can increase its movement speed by 30 points in a blink. In addition to its base movement speed...

*Bang!!*

While Xie Feng was doing calculations in his head, he heard a loud sound behind him. Without turning to see, he knew that the doors were closed

*Moooo!*

With a loud roar, the bull ran towards Xie Feng in a hurry.

Xie Feng squinted and just as the ghost guardian was about to strike him with its fist, he moved to the left. After dodging the blow, Xie Feng raised his left hand and cut down, while aiming with his right hand and threw a fireball.

Two red damage figures floated slowly over the guardian ghost's head. In just 1 second, Xie Feng had caused almost 400 points of damage by using a physical attack and a magical attack!

The guardian ghost did not seem to notice the attack and quickly struck again the next instant. Xie Feng ducked slightly and was able to dodge the blow without too much trouble.

While still bent over, Xie Feng threw a magic bullet into the monster's abdomen.

-240

Because a second had not yet passed, Xie Feng could not strike with his sword and cast a magic bullet since the speed of spell casting limited him.

Although the damage caused by the Magic Bullet spell is equivalent to 80% of his magic attack, the damage the bull received was not bad.

The bull struck with his right foot down, intending to crush him, but Xie Feng put strength into both legs and jumped backwards while cutting with his bronze sword horizontally.

-77

After landing on the ground, Xie Feng immediately threw a fireball, draining another 300 points of life from the ghost guardian.

In just 3.5 seconds, Xie Feng had claimed 1000 guardian ghost life points!

1000 points of life in only 3.5 seconds to nothing more and nothing less than a BOSS 3 SUNS monster. Just thinking about it Xie Feng felt that all this was unrealistic madness.

The total HP of the guardian ghost was 7000, this means that Xie Feng could defeat it easily in only 24.5 seconds!

With mixed feelings, Xie Feng continued to attack in the same way until the guardian ghost's HP was only 300 points.

However, instead of killing it, Xie Feng started running around the place and dodging the bull's attacks while studying it.

It took him about 1 minute to calculate the base speed of the guardian ghost. After 1 minute of dodging constant attacks, Xie Feng came to the conclusion that the base movement speed of the BOSS was about 98-100 points.

Basically the same speed as a player without boots.

After studying the base movement speed, Xie Feng waited patiently another 2 minutes until the bull finally used its active skill Charge

Although he expected it, Xie Feng could not help but be secretly surprised by the explosive speed increase. In just a fraction of a second, the speed of the guardian ghost increased to 130.

Unfortunately for the bull, Xie Feng was already expecting something like this so he easily dodged his charge.

After 20 minutes, Xie Feng had learned the pattern of movements made by the ghost keeper just before using Charge. Therefore, Xie Feng drained the remaining life points of the BOSS with a fireball, since he always kept it at 300 HP, without letting it regenerate life points.

By losing all its HP, the body of the guardian ghost became illusory and disappeared as if it had never existed in the first place.

Although he expected something similar when he saw the word Ghost in the monster's name, Xie Feng could not help but smile bitterly as he looked at the empty floor.

Not only did he not get any drops, Xie Feng did not even get any experience from killing a BOSS grade monster.

Xie Feng sighed, "I wonder if the other tests are that unfair too? How it is possible that monsters do not give experience?"

While talking to himself, Xie Feng advanced to the second door a few meters away and without hesitation opened it.

With a thunderous sound, the door opened. When Xie Feng entered, the door closed automatically. Clearly he could not withdraw once inside.

Xie Feng took a quick look around and noticed that the room was exactly the same as the previous one, like an exact replica.

[Ding!... SSS range dungeon; first stage; second level.]

After the system announcement, two magic circles lit up at the same time.

After the light went out in the blink of an eye, Xie Feng plunged into deep thoughts as he watched the scene in front of him.

[Ghost Guardian: BOSS]

[Level: 10]

[Grade: 3 SUNS]

[HP: 7000]

(Skills):

[Minor Blessing of the Fallen Angel (Passive): Increases the speed of movement +20.]

[Charge (Active): Run towards the enemy in a straight line. Increase the movement speed 30 points for 5 meters. Use Rate: Low.]

Two monsters that looked exactly like the one he just killed a few seconds ago appeared in front of his eyes.

*Mooo!*

*Mooo!*

As in the previous case, the two guardian ghosts did not give him time to think too much as they immediately ran to him after a double roar.

However, Xie Feng was already on guard from the first moment he entered the room.

One ghost guard attacked from the right and the other from the left, limiting Xie Feng's movement to a great extent. However, Xie Feng did not seem to worry about this.

Instead of waiting for the two BOSSES to come to him, Xie Feng began to run to meet them. When he was 5 meters away, Xie Feng pointed his right hand and fired a fireball at the monster on the right side (from his perspective).

-302

After taking part of the HP of one of the monsters, Xie Feng was only 1 meter away from both of them.

The two guardian ghosts raised their fists and struck forward. Seeing this, Xie Feng had an unflappable look on his face and just before the blow of the two monsters could impact him, Xie Feng slid down the floor, passing between the two.

A split second later, as he jumped off the ground, Xie Feng swung his sword from the bottom to the top of the monster that had his full HP, at the same time throwing another fireball at the monster he had previously attacked.

-80

-299

Immediately after attacking, Xie Feng took a step to the left and then another step forward, positioning himself behind the back of the guardian ghost that he had attacked with the sword only a moment earlier.

The guardian ghost that was attacked with magic spells tried to strike with its fist, but because Xie Feng positioned himself in a key location, the monster could not attack properly.

Xie Feng took the opportunity and again attacked with his sword the guardian ghost he was using as a cover and cast another magic spell on the other.

Every time the guardian ghost that was being used as a shield by Xie Feng tried to turn, Xie Feng would immediately reposition himself even if he had to stop attacking for 1 second.

Thus, in just 1 minute and 40 seconds, both monsters lost all their life points and disappeared as they did in the beginning.

Xie Feng sighed slightly, "Fortunately these monsters are not of sufficient degree to have intelligence, otherwise it would not have been so simple."

Even as he murmured such words, Xie Feng went to the third door without hesitation.
