Gold Arthropod! Shocking speed!

Qin Xiaoyou never expected this outcome.

"This… what's going on?"

"I'm giving him a skill book for free, and he doesn't want it?"

Qin Xiaoyou was dazed.

She found it a bit hard to understand.

Is there really someone who refuses something given for free?

Seeing her spacing out, Chu Yan, who was beside her, couldn't help but ask, "Little You, what's the situation?"

Qin Xiaoyou explained what happened, leaving both Chu Yan and Zhang Wei stunned as well.

Zhang Wei: "Holy crap, refusing a free skill book? Is this guy out of his mind?"

Chu Yan thought for a moment and comforted her, "Little You, maybe he's already learned this skill? Let's farm some more monsters and see if we can get a different skill book to drop~"

Qin Xiaoyou sighed. "I guess that's all we can do…"

A few minutes earlier.

Qin Feng returned to the game first.

Before he could clearly see his surroundings, a series of shrill roars already reached his ears.

"I logged off by the seaside."

"Monsters in the area shouldn't respawn this quickly, right?"

Qin Feng was somewhat surprised.

As the darkness around him faded, he was startled to find several players fleeing in all directions along the coastline before him!

And behind those players, a strange demonic creature about three meters tall was in hot pursuit!

——

[Gold Arthropod (Lv8)]

[Rank: Gold]

——

The creature was a pale golden color throughout, its lower body resembling an eight-legged horse!

But its upper body actually had dozens of hands like a centipede, each holding a rusty iron blade or sword!

Its head was like that of a spider, with hundreds of compound eyes tracking the fleeing players. It was incredibly eerie.

The 'Gold Arthropod' was extremely fast, catching up to a Warrior player almost instantly.

The iron blades and swords slashed down in a cross pattern, and in less than a second, the Warrior player was hacked into dozens of pieces!

"Sh… Shadow?"

One of the players was running for their life when they saw a figure appear ahead and were instantly overjoyed.

Qin Feng looked toward the voice and saw a mature, sultry beauty in fiery red mage robes!

She had wavy black hair, and her beautiful eyes were looking at Qin Feng with pleasant surprise…

It was the wavy-haired beauty who had previously bought 'Ice Cone Technique' from Qin Feng—Gray Rose!

When Gray Rose saw Qin Feng, she was first delighted, then became nervous: "Shadow, this BOSS can see through stealth. Our team's Assassin was killed by it. If you want to fight it, you must be careful!"

"…"

Qin Feng didn't speak.

A Gold-grade BOSS—he was definitely going to fight it. After all, to him, this BOSS meant 28 evolution points!

"Gold Arthropod… if I remember correctly, this BOSS's True Sight level is 2…"

Qin Feng narrowed his eyes.

But this didn't mean Qin Feng didn't need stealth anymore.

After all, his damage was higher when breaking stealth!

Shadow Cloak!

Qin Feng's figure quickly vanished!

Seeing this, Gray Rose's beautiful eyes were filled with tension…

Her team had been scattered by that Gold-grade BOSS, so fighting it was out of the question. She couldn't tell if Qin Feng wanted to fight or flee, so she could only keep running for her life!

Qin Feng maintained his stealth and passed Gray Rose.

As they crossed paths, Gray Rose's eyes clearly showed her concern…

However, Qin Feng paid no heed.

He headed straight for the 'Gold Arthropod'.

Instant Shadow Slash!

His figure flickered into view and then instantly vanished, passing through the Gold Arthropod!

-1013!

-3042 (Weak Point Attack)!

-1013!

"As expected, Level 2 stealth is seen through by this BOSS."

"My Shadow class effect didn't trigger…"

When attacking from outside the target's field of vision, damage is doubled.

This effect cannot trigger if the opponent can see through stealth.

This caused Qin Feng's damage to drop significantly.

But at the same time!

Due to the effect of the Legendary 'Graceful Liberation', the Gold Arthropod's head and heart weak points were amplified by 200%!

Among the nine strikes of Qin Feng's Instant Shadow Slash, three were judged to have hit the target's weak points, dealing triple weak point damage!

"Truly a Legendary skill!"

"I have to thank that girl Lin Liyu. Otherwise, I might not have found that Faith Temple…"

With a single Instant Shadow Slash, Qin Feng instantly wiped out 13,000 of the Gold Arthropod's HP.

The BOSS's health bar suddenly dropped by about one-sixth!

Immediately after, Qin Feng turned back and fired a 'Poison Dart'!

He aimed for the opponent's head!

The Gold Arthropod tried to dodge, but unfortunately, Qin Feng's Agility was too high and the dart was too fast. It hit the mark precisely!

-1785 (Weak Point Attack)!

-223!

-223!

Poison Dart was only Silver-grade now, and its damage output simply couldn't keep up.

Of course, the most important thing was that in front of the Gold Arthropod, Qin Feng lost his doubled class damage bonus.

Now that the BOSS was facing him, he couldn't get the 50% backstab damage either.

"I still need a class advancement to get a higher stealth level…"

Qin Feng thought silently.

After he finished throwing his two skills, the Gold Arthropod's eight legs scurried together, attacking him at extreme speed!

Running at full speed, it reached at least 30 meters per second!

In an instant, the dozens of iron blades and swords in the Gold Arthropod's hands fell toward Qin Feng like a violent storm!

"Watch out!"

In the distance, Gray Rose subconsciously shouted upon seeing this, her brow furrowed with worry.

But then, not just her, but also the teammates who had been scattered by the BOSS all widened their eyes!

They saw a scene that left them in disbelief…

Under the BOSS's assault, Qin Feng actually performed side-steps, back-steps, and rolls in a single, fluid motion.

He actually dodged dozens of the BOSS's attacks in a very short time!

"Holy shit, what kind of speed is that?!"

"It's not just speed; his reaction time is so fast, and he understands the BOSS's attack patterns too well!"

"Exactly. In terms of pure speed, he's about the same as the BOSS, but he can dodge every single one of the BOSS's attacks just in time!"

"It's as if he's fought this BOSS countless times before…"

They didn't know that these were the basic skills Qin Feng had honed over nine years in his previous life!

His class in his previous life was a Warrior.

And being a Warrior wasn't just about tanking hits!

A truly top-tier Warrior must dodge a BOSS's key skills. In many cases, they can't afford to take even a single hit, or it would bring crisis to the entire team!

Especially when the team's healer was Qin Xiaoyou.

When raiding Epic BOSSes, the BOSSes have many large-scale area-of-effect skills.

Qin Xiaoyou could barely manage to dodge those skills herself; how could she find time to heal Qin Feng? It was simply impossible!

So in his previous life…

Qin Feng had endured on his own most of the time!

If anyone thought Qin Feng only relied on stealth to slaughter BOSSes, they were dead wrong.

Given sufficient Agility, even if stealth failed, Qin Feng's footwork allowed him to easily toy with the vast majority of BOSSes!
