Tianyun Lao Mao
Chapter 158 The Last Wild Dance
"Lonely, am I dreaming?" Hei Zi patted Lonely Snow's shoulder, pointing at the golden fish that had been crippled.
Lonely Snow's eyes were dull, and he shook his head woodenly.
Compared to the shock of the golden fish's life points plummeting, Lonely Snow was even more shocked by Shi Feng's dart technique. He only saw countless afterimages of hands and couldn't see what the hand looked like, yet more than a dozen Frozen Shadows flew out, almost like a submachine gun.
Besides the terrifying speed, the accuracy was also impressive. Every Frozen Shadow accurately hit the relatively soft abdomen of the cursed golden fish. If he were to do it, it would be difficult to throw one Frozen Shadow and hit the golden fish each time, let alone throw more than a dozen Frozen Shadows, each hitting the abdomen.
"I'd be satisfied if I could reach that level of skill someday." Lonely Snow looked at Shi Feng's dreamlike dart technique, completely immersed in it.
"Don't just stand there dumbfounded, hurry up and catch the crippled golden fish." Shi Feng said quickly.
Only then did Hei Zi and Lonely Snow wake up and immediately take out magic nets to catch the crippled golden fish.
One… two… three…
Shi Feng only spent a short thirty seconds to cripple two or three golden fish. This violent speed even surprised Faust, and he couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
However, once the damage amplification effect was lost, and the curse effect was lost, and the Dark Sky Dance effect was gone, the speed of catching the golden fish immediately slowed down. They could only wait until the skills like Wind Lightning Flash, Earth Shattering Strike, Yan Lightning Blast, and Dark Sky Dance were off cooldown before starting a new round of burst.
On average, they could catch a little over five golden fish per minute.
That would be about three hundred golden fish per hour, and in less than four hours, they could gather a thousand, completing this impossible task.
Time slowly passed.
Unknowingly, more than four hours had passed.
"We're rich, we're rich, Lonely, how many did you catch?"
"618, how about you?"
"Hahaha, I have more than you, I have 645. The two of us together have 1263, we've already completed the goal of a thousand to exchange for a fragment of a legendary item."
"Captain, keep going, there should still be some time left, maybe we can gather a hundred more to exchange for a dark-gold item."
Hei Zi and Lonely Snow were having a great time catching the fish, and they couldn't stop smiling as they saw the number of golden fish in their backpacks increase.
The only pity was that Shi Feng's attacks on these golden fish did not increase his skill proficiency or give him experience points.
If they had normally killed so many level 20 special elites, they would have leveled up two or three times.
But Shi Feng didn't think much of it. Hei Zi and Lonely Snow didn't know how precious a fragment of a legendary item was. They probably wouldn't see one for a long time. Wasting a day or two to get the fragment of the legendary item, Tianlong's Holy Breath, wasn't much at all, let alone a few hours.
Having a fragment of a legendary item would bring a leap in strength, not just a small increase. As long as it was equipped, it would be overwhelmingly powerful even against top experts.
In God's Domain, no one would follow the weak, they all worshiped the strong.
If Shi Feng wanted to build his virtual empire, he had to strengthen himself first, so he could attract others to follow him.
In the early stages of God's Domain, studios like theirs that hadn't gotten started had no way to compare with large guilds. There were many high-level field bosses in God's Domain that had good drops, even dark-gold items. If they were lucky, they could even encounter a field Overlord monster.
Although Overlord-level monsters were incredibly powerful, they had a good chance of dropping epic items. Epic items were crucial for improving a guild, not only increasing individual strength and allowing them to kill more powerful monsters, but also attracting many players who came to join the guild, further strengthening it.
Large guilds could completely use a sea of people to kill high-level monsters or Overlords, paying a heavy price to obtain top-quality equipment, but it was all worth it. Small guilds and small studios didn't have that ability, which made it much easier for large guilds to obtain top-quality equipment. Over time, the gap between the two would widen, making it impossible to compare.
Although it was easy for a studio to develop into a large guild with a huge number of people, keeping those people and having them willing to share the joys and sorrows of the guild was a long process that required time, continuous improvement, and collaboration. In particular, it needed a core framework that could drive and manage the members of the guild. In addition, it needed attractive guild benefits and treatment, and even more so, a vast space for progress and a bright future. The bright future was being led by a strong person. All three were indispensable, otherwise, the people who had gathered with great difficulty would easily disperse.
Guilds like Wulin Alliance, Assassin's Union, and Snake Devourer had created a solid core framework and flesh and blood, and were led by famous top experts. Therefore, they could quickly develop when they entered a new virtual game. The tolerance of the injured framework and flesh and blood was extremely strong, and they could continuously absorb a large number of players, and they could handle it, so they could quickly become stronger.
Guilds like Shadow, which had just developed, couldn't do it. The framework had only been established recently, and even the welfare benefits like flesh and blood hadn't been improved. It couldn't handle absorbing a large number of players at all, and would instead suffer from indigestion, entering a period of stagnation or even decline.
So what Shi Feng had to do was to take the elite route, first build a strong enough framework for the team, and then gradually improve the flesh and blood, increasing tolerance. He wouldn't be like Shadow in his previous life, appearing glamorous on the surface but full of holes inside, vulnerable to a single blow.
And to build a solid framework, the leadership of a strong person was essential, especially for newly established studios. Without superior strength, how could he convince those experts and get them to join? Only strong strength could let them see the light of hope and see the possibility of further improvement. And the fragment of the legendary item would undoubtedly make Shi Feng stronger.
"It's about time, let's start the final burst."
After more than four hours of intense fighting, Shi Feng was now covered in sweat. Both his mind and body were exhausted. If it weren't for the lure of the fragment of the legendary item, he would have fallen asleep long ago.
Then Shi Feng took out all the Ice Grenades and all the Tier 1 magic scrolls and gave them to Hei Zi and Lonely Snow.
"These things are very precious, let's use them together and don't waste the output." Shi Feng said seriously in the team chat.
"Brother Feng, don't worry, I'm a Curse Master, there's absolutely no problem with releasing these Tier 1 magic scrolls."
"Leave it to me."
Hei Zi and Lonely Snow also felt the weight of these items. Not to mention the Ice Grenades, the value of so many Tier 1 magic scrolls was immeasurable. If they didn't use them well, the loss would be significant.
"Follow me to attack that group of golden fish." Shi Feng threw out an Intermediate Ice Grenade to fix the position of the golden fish, and then used Wind Lightning Flash to add the damage amplification effect and the curse effect, and then unfolded a Tier 1 Fire magic scroll and blasted it up.
Hei Zi and Lonely Snow also threw out Ice Grenades at the same time to freeze the golden fish, and then used Tier 1 magic scrolls, starting a round of indiscriminate bombing.
A series of explosions echoed in the galaxy, stirring up layers of waves. The shocking damage caused the golden fish swarm's health to plummet, much stronger than Shi Feng's initial burst.
Faust couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead after seeing this.
"These young people aren't trying to drain my family's wealth, are they?"
