Chapter 15：Self-Evolving Shipwreck Boss

When Da Fei returned to the deserted island after three days, the deck of the shipwreck was peaceful under the night sky. There were no skeletons in sight. Where was the other guy? Did he go into the cabin? Did he go offline for food?

Without another thought, Da Fei went into Hidden Movement mode. At this time, Da Fei's character became blurred and dim, perfectly blending with the darkness of the night. Then, he climbed onto the boat by climbing up a rope that was hanging down one side of the boat. The deck was littered with bones. That guy had gone into the cabin!

Da Fei entered the cabin quietly. The way there was littered with Zombie corpses. Something had happened! He went up to take a look!

What would he do after taking a look?

He would, of course, act according to the circumstances! Anyone who had played Thief before would know that spying on people and not getting found out made them feel wonderfully superior! As a Thief, spying was in itself an enjoyable activity.

Of course, as a Thief, the most exciting thing should be accessing the two locked rooms on both sides of the corridor, right? If Da Fei could pick up a skill book and a task diary in the wild, God knew what he would find in these rooms? That meant he had to learn how to pick locks!

"Motherf**ker! Motherf**ker! Motherf**ker!" Resentful shouts accompanied by sounds of slashing and killing came from further up. Da Fei hurried forward to take a look and was immediately surprised!

Boss! Under siege by a few Zombies, Raging Sea of Blood was surrounded by a smoky green aura desperately casting curses trying to kill the Boss! F**k, he was really fierce!

Da Fei could no longer remain calm! He earned a lot from just a Boss out on the beach. Killing the Boss in the shipwreck should be even more profitable! Look, look at what the Boss had in his hand? Could it be a dark Magic Book that had a record of all dark magic? How could such a thing appear in a beginner island! Could it be a high-end reward from the beginner training grounds for Godly Heroes? This was an A-class strategic treasure! The spellbook itself was magical. It allowed ignorant little newbies to cast spells without any mana or magic skill requirements!

For those who specialized in dark spells, this book was of course not worth much. But, for people in other disciplines, it was tantamount to directly adding a full set of dark skills! This was especially important for players who did not have magic! Imagine this, if a newcomer got a full set of dark magic skills early in the game, in the future, leveling up to do tasks would be as easy as sitting on a rocket! Not to mention, if this book was sold on the Internet, it would fetch at least tens of thousands!

At this time, both Raging Sea of Blood and the Boss' HP was low!

F**k, the Boss's HP was almost empty, it was about to die! F**k! He missed it!

Da Fei decided to rush in!

There was nothing to be said about it, Internet games were like that—Kill! Loot!! KS the Boss!!!

He had done similar things before, and it did not matter if that meant that his character was bad. He did not bother about justice nor treating others' web addiction. Now that gaming was his occupation, there was no hesitation when he encountered situations such as this! The winner had to step on the loser to move upwards, and no one cared about the loser's character. He could always work on his character after he made it. As long as he got the book, the Godly Hero was just scum to him. He was not afraid that the other party would seek revenge. He would just kill him every time he came!

At this time, Raging Sea of Blood had no idea that a hidden assailant was coming and again cut a "Miss"! The very important strike once again missed! He was done for!

Raging Sea of Blood's face immediately turned pale!

Da Fei's pounding heart was in his throat!

Something was wrong! Raging Sea of Blood realized he still had one final chance! Because the last attack missed as well, and the Wraith's ability, Void Body, was that there would never be three misses in a row. That meant the next hit would definitely be successful! Although his HP was too low to take another hit, his attack speed was fast and the next attack would probably result in both sides dying together. In that case, the treasure would still be his! This was the right move! The situation was no longer reversible, the Magic Book would be his!

"Motherf**ker!!!" With a flash of cold steel, Raging Sea of Blood brandished his sword, determined to land the last strike successfully!

At the same time, the Zombies besieging him also struck out with their claws! Da Fei was just one step away from Raging Sea of Blood!

Da Fei was desolate—he had lost the advantage! Even if he killed him now, he could not stop him from perishing together with the Boss! The Boss' treasure would automatically go into his inventory! He was too late! He should have rushed straight in!

At this moment, the Magic Book flashed black. The Wraith flashed white and a bright green "+10!" appeared.

Wraith Ability Absorb Magic: The Wraith can absorb the enemy's Magical Value to restore its Health. It can only be used once in a battle.

Although Raging Sea of Blood had no mana, the Magic Book had!

Raging Sea of Blood's wild laughter suddenly stopped! His attack on the Wraith caused -5 damage to it. Then, he was hit by a Zombie. In disbelief, he dissolved into white light and died!

Wahaha! The originally regretful Da Fei was ecstatic when he saw the newest change in the situation!

Great! He died! It saved him some loss of Reputation from killing another player! His precious pike would not have to kill insignificant rats, wahahaha! There was nothing left to say. The Boss only had a little HP left, the kill was his for sure!

Da Fei rushed into the room ecstatically, stopped, raised his pike, ignored the Zombies, and took a stab at the Boss!!!

—"-3!" He was still alive, he still had 3 HP. One more hit! At this moment, the Magic Book flashed wildly with a black light! The room filled with black smoke!

—System Message: You have obtained a complete Evil Spirit information card!

What? Evil Spirit?

The black light faded away, and in the room was an Evil Spirit with full Health holding the Magic Book! Da Fei's jaw dropped!

What the hell!? Was this for real? Not only did it have full Health, but it had also upgraded from Wraith to Evil Spirit!

—Evil Spirit: Attack: 5, Defense: 6, Damage: 5-7, Health: 25, Attack Speed: 10, Movement Speed: 15, Command Value: 2, Special Skill: Void Body, Absorb Magic, Self-heal.

Evil Spirit, the elite form of a third-level soldier of the Undead!

In the game, there were three forms of troops for each faction and level. The three forms of the third-level soldiers of the Undead race were Spirits, Wraiths, and Evil Spirits. The Spirit was the common form and was relatively weak; Wraith was a little more advanced and had one more ability; Evil Spirit was the elite form and had one more ability than the Wraith.

Take the Templar Pikeman, for example. Da Fei started out with 0 Attack and 0 Defense, without armor. That was the common form. The advanced form was regular Pikeman. It had a few more Attack and Defense points. The elite form was called the Royal Pikeman. They had bright and mighty armor and were of a totally different level compared to villagers holding pikes!

Elite troops were the foundation of the NPC forces that dominated the Old World. Ordinary players could not hire them directly from the main city and barracks, nor could they be trained in castles. They had to achieve a certain Lord's level before they could get such soldiers from the NPCs. It was also because NPCs had elite troops that players were at a disadvantage when they fought NPC forces. In short, players should not provoke the NPC forces. If one died, they would lose experience. But if their troops died, they would have to spend gold to get them back.

Players gained one troop formation for every 10 levels or after gaining a certain army official position. One troop formation could only contain one unit. Although there was a big gap between the elite, advanced, and common form, they were the same type of unit. Hence, a troop formation could have all three types of units at the same time.

For the Undead race, the two types of Level 1 troops, the advanced form Skeleton Shooter and the ordinary form Skeleton Soldier could be mixed together in a formation even though they both had different abilities. This made them very efficient as they complemented each other. Long-distance attacks had a very low chance of hitting the target. However, once the enemy engaged the close-range attack troops, they would become sitting ducks. Every attack would be successful. Anyway, every player knew the advantages of having long and close-range attacks that complemented each other. Hence, to date, the two most popular races to start with were the Undead, as they were easiest to start with, as well as Humans. As for why the Human Race was popular, it should be obvious, people felt a sense of connection to it.

…

Now, faced with the Boss who had suddenly evolved into an Evil Spirit, Da Fei shook off his shock and composed himself. Run! What else could he do but run?

However, as a master with years of gaming experience, Da Fei knew that he must not run straight back along the same path. Otherwise, he would definitely get hit by all the curses! He was not like the Godly Hero who could still continue going head-to-head against the Boss despite being cursed!

Taking advantage of the fact that the Boss had yet to find his bearings, Da Fei immediately turned the corner when he exited the door. He made his way to the depths of the ship.

…

Raging Sea of Blood resurrected in Coconut Forest on the deserted island. He waited, impatient and annoyed, for the 10 minutes of weakness to pass. If he knew that his butthole had almost been stabbed, he would be even more annoyed. Dying had caused him to drop back to Level 5. The attribute points from leveling up the last time had been taken back by the system. The only good thing was that after dying, all the curses on him were cleared. Otherwise, he would have smashed the machine immediately!

Raging Sea of Blood began to reflect painfully on this Boss that would regenerate to full HP once. Obviously, this boss would grow stronger as he himself grew stronger. He had to find a suitable time to challenge it.

One of the reasons for the loss this time was the Zombies. Although the Attack and Speed of the Zombie were low and slow, it did not mean that he could ignore it. In that case, he had to learn the Master-level attack Cleave.

—Cleave: Passive Skill. After killing the enemy in front of you, you can carry over the damage to neighboring enemies. For example, after killing an enemy with only 1 HP left with 5 damage, the remaining 4 damage will go to the enemy's allies. The larger the size of the unit, the better the effect of the cleave. Many large units have the Cleave skill. Prerequisites for learning: Master-level offensive skills must be mastered.

It was a compulsory skill to learn in order to master offensive skills! The advantage of this skill was that once one hit a Spirit Boss and missed, the damage of the attack would be directed to the Zombies next to the Boss.

In other words, he had to level up to Level 7 before he could add a skill point to it.

Wait! Raging Sea of Blood suddenly thought of an important point. If he had been better equipped, he would have been able to kill it, right? Why did he have to insist on killing this Boss? There must be weapons and equipment in the shipwreck. All he had to do was go around the Boss to get them, right? When he was better equipped, he could go back for the Boss!

"Damn it! All my defense was wasted!" Raging Sea of Blood had figured it out and then rose, angry and impatient, eager to go on his way!
