#262 · 262 of 2210

How vulnerable is an Assassin without Stealth?

These official players from Guanggang had been in charge of this Tower of Divine Authority for most of the day.

Each of them had died once, then ran back.

They were all preparing to continue the challenge after midnight.

Because their previous attempts had given them a lot of experience.

"As far as we know, the challenge of this Tower of Divine Authority is more friendly to female players."

"So, let's all scout the way for Little Pineapple and figure out the pattern."

"That's right, Little Pineapple, try to take it down in one go tomorrow!"

Everyone looked at a petite girl with a single ponytail, who nodded nervously.

Then someone else asked in the team channel: "Niu Huazi, revived yet? Quickly tell us, did you encounter anything different?"

Niu Huazi quickly said in a deep voice: "Yes. I was the sixth to challenge today, and as soon as the challenge started, it prompted me that the challenge difficulty had increased… The number of Lightning Element Envoys increased from four to five, there were more Lightning Element Traps, and the number of falling lightning bolts also increased and became more frequent."

"Otherwise, I could have lasted at least seven or eight more seconds!"

As soon as he said this, everyone was a little surprised.

"Could it be… the more people challenge this thing every day, the harder the challenge gets?"

"Then in the future, won't we have to come and challenge it early every day? Otherwise, it will become harder and harder to pass the challenge later on!"

"Should we… remind Shadow?"

"Let's remind him. After all, this challenge costs thirty years of lifespan, it would be bad to waste it."

These were all official members from Guanggang.

In a sense, they had more or less benefited from cooperating with Qin Feng.

After all, they had many Platinum equipment items, and two of them even owned an Emerald-grade equipment each, all because Qin Feng came to help defeat the Boss, allowing them to obtain them!

So, within their capabilities, they naturally had to consider Qin Feng.

…

Soon.

While Qin Feng was flying towards the High-Level Divine Authority Tower, he received a reminder from A Twisp of Smoke.

He learned that the official team had just started to clear that Tower of Divine Authority, and had entered it several times today. If they entered again, the difficulty would increase.

"Alright, got it."

Qin Feng replied.

He already knew that the more times the High-Level Divine Authority Tower was challenged each day, the higher the difficulty.

He just didn't expect that the official team in Guanggang was already trying to clear it.

"common Towers of Divine Authority have no restrictions, you can challenge them freely, and the Tower Lord NPCs of each common Tower of Divine Authority are all busy to death…"

"But the Tower Lord NPCs of High-Level Divine Authority Towers have status and position far exceeding those of common Tower of Divine Authority Lords!"

In simple terms.

The NPCs guarding High-Level Divine Authority Towers originally had extremely high status, position, and strength.

So their prestige was also higher.

Want to challenge?

First, pay the entrance fee, ranging from 20 to 50 years of lifespan!

Moreover, the more people challenge it each day, the higher the difficulty will be!

This can deter many players!

Furthermore, the god-given book sold by the Lords of these High-Level Divine Authority Towers are much more expensive, belonging to the type where one big sale can last them a long time…

According to 'NPC Behavioral Studies'.

The strength of NPCs in the God Forsaken Game varies.

For example, the NPCs guarding common Towers of Divine Authority are generally of average strength, such as the Six-Fingered Warlock · Vikri of the Jianghai City Tower of Divine Authority, and the Moon Deficient Queen · Virginie of the Modu City Tower of Divine Authority, both belonging to this category.

Although their strength far surpasses current players, in the true mid-to-late game, players still have the ability to defeat them.

In contrast, the Tower Lord NPCs guarding High-Level Divine Authority Towers are all quite terrifying existences.

At least in his previous life, Qin Feng had never heard of any High-Level Tower Lord being defeated by players.

"Some High-Level Tower Lords, after meeting certain conditions, can be invited back to a player's guild Hideout…"

"Unfortunately, this does not seem to include the one in Guanggang."

In fact, the Tower Lord of the High-Level Divine Authority Tower Qin Feng was heading to was very mysterious.

Outsiders didn't even know if it was male or female, let alone its identity or race.

Naturally, no one could invite it back.

This time, Qin Feng's goal was merely to challenge it and purchase some high-level god-given books.

He rode Osirio, flying all the way to a Fierce Area with a hundredfold lifespan flow rate!

This was a crimson mountainous region, and in the center of the mountains stood a High-Level Divine Authority Tower surrounded by black electric light. Endless black electric light flashed around the tall tower!

Above, dark clouds gathered.

Within the crimson mountainous region, 20-25 level monsters, such as Crimson Goats and Crimson Scorpions, appeared from time to time.

Several official players were also teaming up to farm monsters a few hundred meters outside the Tower of Divine Authority.

They were clearly the official players who came to clear the Tower of Divine Authority…

Qin Feng ignored all of them.

He and Osirio remained in stealth, landing directly at the main entrance of the Tower of Divine Authority!

Qin Feng looked up, put Osirio away, and slowly walked towards the large door covered in black lightning…

Boom!

The lightning door, after Qin Feng entered, slammed shut, closing tightly.

This surprised the official players outside who were farming monsters, including the petite girl 'Little Pineapple'.

"The tower door closed, someone else went in."

"I didn't even see anyone, was it Shadow?"

"It must be Shadow! He's really confident, even though we reminded him the difficulty increased…"

Everyone was a bit astonished.

However, the petite girl 'Little Pineapple' looked at the tightly closed door of the Tower of Divine Authority, her eyes filled with anticipation: "Actually, I think since Shadow went in, he must be confident. He has never failed before!"

When she said this, a young man nearby seemed a little jealous.

The young man in black leather armor immediately smiled and said: "His not failing doesn't mean he won't fail. Maybe he often dies in corners we don't know about?"

"Everyone knows the difficulty of this challenge; the attack frequency is so fast it's unsolvable… If you have stealth, it's fine, you can avoid the damage from the Lightning Element Envoys, but without stealth, you can't withstand it at all!"

"I'm also one of the best Assassins here in Guanggang, and I know very well how vulnerable an Assassin is without stealth…"

A man and a woman nearby also sighed.

"That's right, this challenge is too difficult. With lightning filling the screen, no amount of damage reduction, shields, or Evasion is enough."

"I also think that if Shadow could stay in stealth and only dodge lightning and traps, he might pass, but if he can't stay in stealth, he'll be targeted by the Lightning Element Envoys…"

Unfortunately, no matter what they said.

The single-ponytail girl 'Little Pineapple' always had full confidence in Qin Feng!

The young Assassin in black leather armor could only smile and say: "Anyway, this challenge will end soon. We'll know how long he lasted by watching the black lightning outside later."

Everyone nodded.

So they temporarily found a safe corner, paused their monster farming, and all eyes turned towards the tall tower!
