Chapter 011 Lightning Arrow Upgrade!
Thinking of this, Su Yu immediately closed the level ranking list. Currently, no one in the novice village No. 9528 could rival him, so there was really nothing to pay attention to.
Then, he opened the chat public screen of the newbie village No. 9528.
Upon opening the chat public screen, the first thing that catches the eye is a red, bold, pinned announcement, which is the announcement from the newbie village that Su Yu triggered when he reached level 5.
Below the pinned announcement is the chat area, where messages are constantly being flooded.
"Wow, what's going on with this Emperor Yu? He's already reached level 5 so quickly."
"Silver-level skills! I'm so envious. I only have two common-level skills that come with my class. How pathetic."
"What rank do you think Yu Huang's talent is?"
"I guess Emperor Yu has at least Emperor-level talent, and it's not impossible that he might even have Emperor-level talent."
"I don't think it's easy to say. Maybe Yu Huang's talent is to greatly increase the experience points gained from killing monsters, which would explain why his level is higher than that of Boss Wang Meng."
"That's right, Wang Meng is a true king-level talent. Hundreds of us have witnessed it firsthand in the newbie plaza."
"Let's observe slowly. If Yu Huang's level can continue to be ahead, it means that his talent is definitely stronger than Wang Meng's."
"..."
Su Yu glanced at the chat screen for a while and found that it was mostly just idle chatter, so he simply closed the chat screen.
"It's time to run the Goblin Plains dungeon." A hint of anticipation flashed in Su Yu's eyes, and he immediately sped towards the dungeon entrance.
For Su Yu, the dungeon was a huge gold mine.
In dungeons, in addition to obtaining regular experience points, equipment, items, and materials, he can also quickly acquire a large number of skill points.
This also means that his strength will enter a rapid phase.
……
Meanwhile, in Beginner Village No. 9528, at the border between the Level 2 and Level 3 jungle areas.
A middle-aged man was sitting on the ground resting, waiting for his health and mana to slowly recover.
"Just what kind of monster is this Yu Huang? He has reached level 5 so quickly. With his strength, he can definitely hunt down the Gale Cat Demon with ease."
"I possess a King-level talent that allows me to deal double damage to targets no more than 3 levels higher than myself, but I can only barely kill one Gale Cat Demon."
"In other words, Emperor Yu must either have extremely high combat skills or extremely high talent level, or even both."
Wang Meng gasped in shock at the thought.
He originally thought he had awakened a king-level talent, making him a top-tier expert even globally.
To his utter surprise, he encountered a far more terrifying expert in this small beginner village.
This forced him to suppress his somewhat inflated ego.
It's important to understand that the game "Immortality" isn't a virtual game on Earth. Every time a player dies, their real lifespan is reduced. Once their lifespan reaches zero, they are truly dead.
It's safe to say that you can never be too careful in the game "Immortality".
"I'll stick to farming the Gale Rabbits for now, and once I reach level 4, I'll raise my skill level a bit more before trying to farm the Gale Cat Demons," Wang Meng thought to himself.
Although he has already reached level 3, killing level 2 Gale Rabbits only grants him 50% of the experience points, but it is still more efficient than forcibly farming Gale Cat Demons.
With his current strength, he would need to be at full power to barely kill a Gale Cat Demon, and he might even be killed by the Gale Cat Demon if he is not careful.
Wang Meng felt that farming the Swift Rabbit was more suitable for him.
As for the Gale Cat Demon, let whoever wants to farm it do so; he's not going to, his life is more important.
……
A few minutes later.
Su Yu successfully arrived at the entrance to the Goblin Plains instance.
"Finally, I can run dungeons." A look of anticipation flashed in Su Yu's eyes.
Based on his understanding of the game's basic information, the beginner village dungeon is essentially a newbie perk for all players in the game "Immortality".
All dungeons in the beginner village can be run for free; you only need to use up your attempts.
However, after leaving the starting village, not only do you need to use up attempts to run dungeons outside, but you also need to meet additional conditions.
Some dungeons have relatively simple requirements, requiring only the expenditure of gold coins.
Some dungeons have very strict requirements, which may require consuming lifespan or special dungeon tickets, etc.
However, without exception, all the dungeons in the beginner village can be run for free. Apart from consuming attempts, there are no additional conditions required, making them a complete benefit for new players.
"However, there's one more thing I need to do before entering the dungeon." Su Yu turned his gaze to his skill bar.
He currently has 205 skill points, just enough to upgrade Lightning Bolt to level 10 and unlock its first trait.
In Su Yu's opinion, the Lightning Arrow area-of-effect skill would be of great help to him in his upcoming dungeon runs.
[You have spent 4 skill points, increasing your Lightning Bolt level. Current level: 2!]
[You have spent 8 skill points, increasing your Lightning Bolt level. Current level: 3!]
……
[You have spent 36 skill points, increasing your Lightning Bolt level. Current level: 10!]
【lv10 Lightning Arrow (Silver): Active skill, fires a lightning arrow, dealing 370+Physical Attack Power*165% lightning damage to the target, with a certain probability of causing paralysis.
After Lightning Bolt hits a target, it can jump between up to twelve targets (a target can only take damage once), with subsequent damage reduced by 5% each time.
Costs 95 mana, 13-second cooldown.
[Level 10 Trait: After killing a target with Lightning Bolt, all mana cost of the skill will be immediately refunded, along with 50% of its cooldown.]
"Not bad, not bad. The level 10 Lightning Arrow ability not only solved my sustain problem, but also greatly improved my monster-clearing efficiency." Su Yu nodded in satisfaction.
Those 180 skill points were well spent; if I had to describe it in one word, it would be "worth it!"
With Su Yu's current attack power, monsters of the same level as him would definitely be instantly killed.
This means he can continuously trigger the level 10 trait of Lightning Bolt, allowing him to use the skill without consuming any resources and even get a 50% cooldown refund.
Lightning Bolt, as an area-of-effect skill, not only has a high mana cost, but also a much longer cooldown time than ordinary skills.
However, if we could get half of the cooldown time back, that would be really great.
The cooldown of Lightning Bolt is currently 13 seconds. Returning half of the cooldown time effectively reduces the skill's cooldown to 6.5 seconds.
This is not much different from the cooldown time of a level 1 Soul Severing Arrow.
For Su Yu, using the Lightning Arrow was no different from an ordinary archer using the Soul-Severing Arrow.
Su Yu doesn't even need mana to use Lightning Arrow, unlike ordinary archers who have to carefully calculate their mana before using Soul Severing Arrow.
