Chapter 31 The Book of Hell

Chapter 1 Stone Peak's Choice

Without a second word, Shi Feng walked over and casually picked up the single-handed sword brimming with murderous intent.

The Blood Red Blade was one of the rarest drops in the Hell-level Silent Forest, and without a doubt, the best single-handed sword for swordsmen before level 6.

Blood Red Blade, One-Handed Sword, Mithril Rank, Equipment Requirement: 12 Strength, Equipment Level: 3, Attack Power +21, Strength +5, Agility +6, Stamina +3, Durability 30/30.

Its pure attack power was already comparable to a level 5 two-handed bronze battle-axe, and with the addition of 6 points of agility, it greatly increased the swordsman's attack speed. It was definitely a top-grade weapon for swordsmen.

Unfortunately, he couldn't equip it yet. He was only at level 2 with 69% experience, and he still needed a lot of experience to reach level 3. Even if he reached level 3, he still couldn't equip it because swordsmen could only unlock the dual-wielding talent after reaching level 5, at which point they could equip two one-handed swords.

Once he reached level 5, wielding the Abyssal Blade in his main hand and the Blood Red Blade in his off-hand, his attack power would be virtually invincible among level 5 players. Just thinking about it was exhilarating.

"Feng-ge, hurry up and pick up the equipment. I'm dying of anticipation," Hei Zi urged impatiently.

"Yeah, Captain, you can't just enjoy it yourself. At least let us take a look at what equipment dropped, just to feast our eyes!"

The items dropped on the ground almost blinded everyone. Their eyes were wide with anticipation, and they were burning with anxiety. They had even forgotten the joy of leveling up to level 2. All they wanted to see was what the two Hell-level Bosses had dropped. As for rushing over to snatch the dropped items, none of them would do that, no matter how valuable the items on the ground were.

If they did that, they might enjoy it for a moment, but they would regret it for the rest of their lives because Shi Feng was the greatest treasure. Even if Shi Feng said he wanted all the equipment, no one would object. After all, they were able to get this far entirely because of Shi Feng, so no one would rush forward to snatch the drops. They all obediently stood aside and watched.

"Okay, okay, don't rush." Shi Feng smiled slightly, and began quickly picking up the items on the ground. He was very satisfied with everyone's behavior.

Unlike in his previous life, Shi Feng occasionally went to dungeons with some people, and as soon as the Boss died, a group of people would rush up to snatch the equipment. After snatching the equipment, they would disappear, leaving Shi Feng speechless with anger.

The reason he hadn't set the team to leader-only looting was to test everyone. It was always good to discover those treacherous villains sooner rather than later. Now that everyone hadn't swarmed forward to snatch things, he felt more at ease with them.

Before long, Shi Feng had picked up all the dropped items, a total of 19 items and 5 silver coins. This haul was comparable to the entire assets of a large guild.

After sorting through his backpack a bit, Shi Feng's lips curled up slightly. He had seen a forging design.

Defense Armor Design, after learning it, one could forge a level 3 Bronze-rank chest armor. The required materials were 20 copper ore, 5 bronze ore, and 5 bottles of magic essence.

This equipment was a good thing. As long as the MT (main tank) equipped it, it would be much easier to clear the normal-level Silent Forest. Not only because of its high defense and strength, but more importantly, it increased the maximum health points by 200, which was too important for the MT.

In his previous life, as soon as this equipment came out, the major guilds went crazy for it, and they spared no expense to farm the design in the Silent Forest.

Hei Zi became even more anxious when he saw Shi Feng's happy smile.

The others were even more so. If gazes could kill, Shi Feng would probably have died a thousand times over.

"The loot is not bad. You guys can take a look." Shi Feng didn't waste any more time and directly sent out the attributes of all the equipment.

There were a total of 15 pieces of equipment. Among them, there was only 1 piece of Mithril-rank equipment, which was the Blood Red Blade. There were 5 pieces of Mysterious-Iron-rank equipment and 9 pieces of Bronze-rank equipment. The Bronze-rank equipment dropped by the Hell-level Bosses were all top-grade, far from what ordinary elites dropped.

Among all the equipment, apart from the Blood Red Blade being the most precious, the remaining were the Mysterious-Iron-rank sets for various classes. Mysterious-Iron-rank sets only dropped in Hell-level, while Normal and Hard only dropped Bronze sets.

Hei Zi had always had good luck. Among the 5 pieces of Mysterious-Iron-rank equipment, two of them were the Warlock's Dark Set. The Mysterious-Iron-rank Dark Set was definitely the best Warlock set before level 5. The Dark Set had a total of 5 pieces, namely head, chest, legs, shoes, and gauntlets. This time, the chest and shoes dropped, making Hei Zi grin from ear to ear.

"Feng-ge, I love going to hell so much. Let's come here every day from now on. That way, I can collect my Dark Set, and then who would dare look down on us? I'll blast them into oblivion," Hei Zi said smugly, holding the Dark Set in his hands.

After Hei Zi put on the Dark Set, he felt even more like an expert. His spell damage had increased to 66, and a level 3 Shadow Arrow could instantly kill half of a level 1 shield warrior's health. If he collected the Mysterious-Iron-rank Dark Set, a single Shadow Arrow could kill a level 1 shield warrior instantly.

A long dark gray fur robe, coupled with bright, lacquered black ankle boots, anyone could tell it was a set.

The others looked at Hei Zi's shining Dark Set, and their mouths were watering. Their hearts were full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.

They had never thought that going to hell could be so enjoyable. They really hoped they could go to hell a few more times in the future.

The remaining three pieces were sets for Guardian Knight, Shield Warrior, and Elementalist. Among the classes present, only Cola was a Guardian Knight, so Shi Feng gave that piece of equipment to Cola. He put away the remaining equipment.

Among the remaining Bronze equipment, one piece was a shield and one was a greatsword. Their attributes were both top-grade for level 2. He gave them to Cola and Lonely Snow respectively. Prophet Slumbering Tree Sloth and Summoner Gluttonous Little Mouse each received a piece of Bronze equipment.

Shi Feng also changed a lot of his equipment. Among the Bronze equipment, there were 3 pieces for the Swordsman class, and he put away the remaining two pieces.

After everyone changed their equipment, the entire team changed its appearance. Everyone's equipment was incomparably gorgeous. At a glance, it was clear that it wasn't ordinary equipment sold on the street stalls. The entire team had reached level 2, and Hei Zi had reached level 2 with 98%, just a hair away from leveling up to level 3.

The remaining four items were a design blueprint, an alchemy recipe, a Warlock's rare skill book, and a notebook.

The Warlock's rare skill book made Hei Zi extremely happy. It was a group attack skill called Hellfire, dealing 150% fire damage per second to an area of 8*8 yards, lasting 5 seconds, with a cooldown of 36 seconds. It was a god-tier skill for grinding monsters in the early stages.

"What is this thing for?" Shi Feng looked at the old notebook in his hand. He didn't remember the Hell-level Silent Forest dropping this thing.

Opening it, it was full of incomprehensible words, but Shi Feng knew that these words were ancient Elven script.

In God's Domain, as long as something was related to Elven script, it was not an ordinary item, just like the Ring of Gravity. A string of Elven script was engraved on the ring, giving the ring incredible abilities.

"It seems I have to go to the library."

Shi Feng felt that this notebook was not simple. In his previous life, he had gone to the Hell-level Silent Forest dozens of times, and this thing had never dropped. The other teams in the guild had never mentioned it either. It was likely an item that only dropped on the first clear. If he wanted to understand it, he could only go to the library to find a translation.

"Feng-ge, what are we going to do next? Are we going to grind monsters?" Hei Zi was looking forward to his newly learned skill and wanted to try it out immediately.

"Alright, let's go to Darkmoon Valley to do quests and grind monsters. The monsters there drop a lot of ore," Shi Feng said after thinking for a while.

With the design blueprint in hand, all that was left was the materials, but he needed a lot of materials. Now that he had Hei Zi's Hellfire, it should be quick to grind kobolds and goblins. Moreover, he knew of a few good spots that were very suitable for using Hellfire.

So Shi Feng turned to look at the others and asked, "Are you guys coming along, or are you going to do your own quests?"

"Feng-dage, how can grinding monsters be without me? I plan to follow Feng-dage in the future," Cola said with a simple and honest smile, stroking his new shield.

"Feng-dage, can we join too?"

Slumbering Tree Sloth and Gluttonous Little Mouse were both high school students. At this time, they both lowered their heads, looking a little embarrassed, but they didn't want to give up the opportunity. Shi Feng was a great expert, and being able to learn a thing or two from him would be endlessly useful.

Shi Feng smiled and said, "Of course you are welcome to join."

Immediately, the two of them revealed excited expressions, and their hands clenched tightly, showing their excitement.

"Since everyone doesn't object, let's go to Darkmoon Valley to grind monsters."

After Shi Feng finished speaking, he opened the system screen, selected party dungeon teleport, and left the Silent Forest.
