Chapter 253: Undead Raid!
After that, it was time to turn in the quest.
Regarding the quest to gather intelligence, Li Xiang's completion rate was extremely high, and He Denlong was very satisfied with this, rewarding him with extremely generous compensation.
【Ding! Quest 'Investigate Undead Monster Intelligence' completed.】
【Ding! Received quest reward 'Experience Points' x321,320,000】
【Ding! Received quest reward 'Gold Coins' x1000】
【Ding! Received quest reward 'Wu Shuang City Reputation' +10】
【Ding! Received quest reward 'Undead Raid' x1】
As the reward prompts ended, a golden light fell upon Li Xiang.
【Ding! Congratulations on leveling up, current level: Level 62.】
【Ding! Level-up reward, Free Attribute Points +10】
This reward included abundant experience points; a thousand gold coins were just a bonus for Li Xiang.
What interested Li Xiang the most was the skill book 'Undead Raid'.
Even though he already had a large number of skills and his strength was off the charts, no player would complain about having too many skills.
This game has no restrictions on skills; as long as the learning conditions are met, one can learn them.
Therefore, many combat playstyles have also emerged.
Check the skill book effect.
【Undead Raid】
Effect: Launch a surprise attack at extremely high speed, attack distance 15 meters, deal 150% Physical damage to the first target hit and stun it for 0.5 seconds. If the target was originally in a slowed state, the stun is extended by 0.25 seconds. If the target's back is hit, the stun duration is extended by 0.25 seconds. (All stun effects of this skill can stack)
Cooldown: 1min
Cost: 575
【Comment: A skill unique to Undead Warriors, extremely powerful, a deadly tool for pursuit!】
The effect is quite long.
It can be completely seen as an upgraded version of the Charge skill.
With an attack distance of up to fifteen meters, the damage is also high, a 150% Physical damage bonus.
Stun duration is half a second. If the target is slowed, the duration is extended. If the back is hit, it is extended.
As expected, just like in the comment, it's a deadly tool for pursuit!!!
When pursuing, the target's back is exposed within one's sight.
Learn!!!
【Ding! Skill 'Undead Raid' learned successfully!】
He gained another powerful skill.
Li Xiang left the City Lord's Mansion.
The Guild channel was still very lively.
Because the Guild Residence was currently being upgraded and couldn't be entered, a large number of players were outside.
Those running dungeons ran dungeons, those leveling up leveled up...
It was about to get dark, and the end of today's game session was approaching.
"Calculating the time, the Guild upgrade is also nearing its end."
Leaving the city, riding the Crimson Flame Steed, Li Xiang prepared to return to the Guild Residence.
Just as he had gone halfway, a spatial vortex appeared in front of Li Xiang.
Chen Sisi's fair hand reached out from it, followed by her graceful figure.
Seeing Li Xiang, she pretended to be surprised and said, "What a coincidence, we meet again."
Li Xiang's mouth twitched.
Anyone with eyes could tell she had come specifically to find him.
"Not a coincidence. I'm very busy right now. Speak, what is it?"
Seeing that Li Xiang had exposed her, annoyance appeared in Chen Sisi's eyes.
This detestable Human!!!
Truly, every time she saw him, she wished she could kill him immediately!
"The Saintess wants to see you."
Demon Race Saintess?!
Li Xiang's eyes slightly flickered.
"Is it the great demon Leng Qianqiu?"
Chen Sisi frowned, "Ant! Watch your words!!! Is the name of my clan's Saintess something you can address so directly?!"
It really was her.
It wasn't that Li Xiang knew the Saintess, but rather that during the overwhelming promotions before the game launched, the figure of this Demon Race Saintess was included.
Although she only appeared briefly in the massive promotional video, because she was too beautiful, she was screenshotted and recorded by numerous netizens and widely spread.
Throughout the entire game, the number of players who didn't know about the Demon Race Saintess Leng Qianqiu was probably countable on one's fingers.
After scolding Li Xiang, Chen Sisi looked at Li Xiang, "I didn't expect that you, a Human ant, would actually know the name of my clan's Saintess. I underestimated you."
Li Xiang casually said, "The Demon Clan's number one beauty, it's hard not to know."
As soon as Li Xiang finished speaking, Chen Sisi's face instantly darkened.
【Ding! 'Demon Clan Priest - Chen Sisi' Favorability -5, current value: 25】
Looking at this favorability prompt, Li Xiang's mouth twitched.
She's getting competitive already?!
He said she wasn't as good as that Saintess, and she directly lowered his favorability...
Is this... jealousy?
Interesting...
"What are you smiling at?"
Seeing that Li Xiang was actually still smiling, Chen Sisi became furious.
"Ah? Was I smiling? You must have seen wrong."
"Heh heh..."
This was the first time Li Xiang had heard the words 'heh heh' from Chen Sisi.
Honestly, it was quite interesting.
"I won't tease you anymore. To be honest, although that Saintess is beautiful, in my heart, you are the most beautiful Demon Clan member."
Seeing Li Xiang's sudden change in words, Chen Sisi was slightly startled, then a faint blush appeared on her exquisite face.
This Human ant!!!
He actually... spoke so openly!
Truly audacious!!!
【Ding! 'Demon Clan Priest - Chen Sisi' Favorability +10, current value: 35】
Looking at the newly appeared favorability prompt, Li Xiang's mouth curved up.
It dropped by 5 and increased by 10, totaling a net gain of 5.
"You still haven't said whether you want to see the Saintess."
Li Xiang's gaze fixed on Chen Sisi, "What does she want with me?"
Chen Sisi thought for a moment, "If I'm not mistaken, she probably wants to win you over.
Your recent performance has been outstanding, already meeting the conditions for my Demon Clan to win you over."
Li Xiang: ???
What kind of talk is this...
Only now does he meet the conditions?!!!
He's always been awesome...
Is this also the effect of killing the Undead epic BOSS...?
On the Human side, he also received benefits. He Denlong even personally requested credit for him.
On the Demon Clan side, the Saintess wants to win him over...
Interesting...
Only such a realistic game is interesting...
"Do you want me to go?"
Saying this, Li Xiang's eyes stared intently into Chen Sisi's eyes.
Being stared at like that by Li Xiang, Chen Sisi's gaze darted away.
"I... I..."
"I'm just conveying the Saintess's words. Go if you want, don't if you don't."
"Okay, I understand what you mean."
Chen Sisi: ???
What do you understand?
"I'll go."
Chen Sisi: ?!!!
You understood the opposite!!!
Seeing Chen Sisi's expression was wrong, Li Xiang's mouth curved up again, "Just kidding, I'm not going."
Chen Sisi voiced her confusion, "Why?"
"What if the Saintess sees my handsome appearance, imprisons me in the Demon Clan, and makes me part of her harem?
How could I, a dignified Human Imperial Guard, yield to a demon?"
Chen Sisi: ...
But in her heart, she breathed a sigh of relief.
Having known Li Xiang for so long, although this guy Li Xiang was very unreliable and had tricked her quite a few times, she had also gained many implicit benefits from him.
If the Saintess were to understand him, she might start competing with her...
"Okay, then don't go. Anyway, your strength is only reliant on divine artifacts. Without them, the Saintess wouldn't even look at your actual strength."
Li Xiang: ...
We're friends, can you not be so hurtful when you talk?!
