Chapter 1 A Sudden Change

As soon as Shi Feng logged in, he suddenly felt his body sink.

"It's been a while since I've experienced the gravity change system; I'm not used to it," Shi Feng said, moving his body. He felt that the gravity in the area he was in was about 1.5 times normal gravity.

After the third evolution of God's Domain, the combat environment became more perfect. Not only were the cold and heat more realistic in different areas, but even gravity began to change. Sudden changes in gravity in different areas easily made players unaccustomed, especially in combat, which greatly affected their combat power.

A weapon that originally weighed 5kg might feel lighter or heavier due to changes in gravity, making players who were used to that weight uncomfortable. This would cause deviations in the use of skills, leading to a significant drop in completion.

Just after Shi Feng logged in, the people in the First District also logged in one after another.

"What's going on? I feel like my actions are a bit slow," a Shield Warrior quickly noticed something was wrong.

"That's right, even swinging my greatsword feels awkward," a Berserker in the same team also clearly felt his own problem.

Compared to plate armor classes, other classes were somewhat affected, but the impact was not as great as on plate armor classes.

"This should be a change in gravity," Qing Shuang, as a top expert in the First District, immediately found the reason. "Since the gravity has changed, let's not move around casually and adapt for a while before leaving here."

Everyone understood immediately and began to adapt to the current weight.

At this time, it was still night in the Dark Cave, and there were many monsters hunting outside.

Although Shi Feng and the others logged in from a safe area, they were still discovered by a group of level 40 Elite Demonic Light Jackals, which moved quickly left and right in the forest, rapidly approaching Shi Feng and his party.

"Not good, a pack of jackals is approaching," a Ranger with keen senses shouted urgently.

The Demonic Light Jackals in this area were overlords. They usually moved in packs of seventy or eighty at night, led by a chieftain and several special elites.

Even normally, it would not be easy for them to deal with them, and some might even die. Now, with the team's numbers incomplete and their combat power reduced due to the effects of gravity, dealing with them would be a big problem.

"Everyone, prepare for battle!" Qing Shuang frowned and said repeatedly, "MTs, just hold them back, don't mess around."

At this time, the team was still adapting to the gravity. The gravity had too much impact on the plate armor classes, and it would be difficult for them to be a combat force, so they could only rely on the magic classes.

"Yes!"

Under Qing Shuang's command, the team quickly formed a formation and prepared to fight.

As expected, after the team formed a formation, Demonic Light Jackals emerged from the dark forest, in groups of three or five, staring at a target. Among these Demonic Light Jackals were also larger, special elite-level Demonic Claw Jackals and chieftain-level Black Demon Jackals.

Demonic Claw Jackal, Demon-type creature, Special Elite, Level 40, HP 360,000.

Black Demon Jackal, Demon-type creature, Chieftain, Level 40, HP 1,000,000.

"Our luck is really bad. There are actually eight Demonic Claw Jackals and two Black Demon Jackals," the female Priest, Xi Lian, looked at the jackals emerging under the moonlight, and her face was not good. "Could it be two packs?"

Usually, a pack of jackals would have one chieftain monster and three to five special elites, but now there were twice as many.

"All Elementalist use ice walls to try to separate them as much as possible, don't give them a chance to use pack tactics!" Qing Shuang had fought these jackals more than once and was very clear about their attack patterns.

More than a dozen Elementalist, upon hearing the order, chanted spells and used ice walls to separate the jackals. Even if they couldn't separate them, the jackals would be slowed down by the ice walls if they tried to surround someone.

"Awoo!" The Black Demon Jackal roared.

Immediately, more than eighty Demonic Light Jackals started to move.

Under the command of the Black Demon Jackal, thirty or so attacked from the front, and fifty or so moved to the side to flank.

"Damn it!"

A level 29 Shield Warrior was besieged by four Demonic Light Jackals. Although he desperately blocked with his shield, the change in gravity made his movements somewhat slow. He was bitten three or four times, and his HP instantly dropped by more than half.

The other melee classes also found it difficult to cope, only the magic classes in the center were relatively relaxed.

"What's going on with these jackals?"

"Are they being controlled by players?"

After fighting for a while, everyone quickly realized something was wrong.

This batch of Demonic Light Jackals actually tore open several small gaps in their formation. The special elite-level Demonic Claw Jackals and the chieftain-level Black Demon Jackals immediately rushed into the gaps, heading straight for the healing classes.

The Black Demon Jackal ran like a gust of wind, and in an instant, it was in front of a Divine Official. It swung its claws fiercely, and before the Divine Official could use True Words to defend, he was swept away and turned into a star, disappearing.

"Something's wrong, these monsters have become smarter. Melee, go hold them back immediately, we need to withdraw from here," Qing Shuang's face darkened. Even a fool could see the change in these monsters.

In the past, with the front-line players holding them back, these monsters would not attack the healers in the back, but now they were using their underlings for feints, focusing their main target on the healing classes. Such a change was fatal to player teams!

At this moment, a Demonic Light Jackal found an opening and pounced on Shi Feng from behind.

Demonic Light Jackal, Demon-type creature, Elite, Level 40, HP 140,000.

Just as the Demonic Light Jackal's snow-white claws were about to tear through Shi Feng's back, Shi Feng suddenly took half a step to the left and turned his body to the side. The claws brushed past Shi Feng's side, and its body was completely exposed in front of Shi Feng.

The Demonic Light Jackal was as tall as a person, its entire body was pitch black, and it had a sharp horn on its head. Even if a player was wearing Mysterious Iron armor, this horn could easily pierce through it and break the player's defense. It was a natural killer in the dark.

Shi Feng then drew out the Abyssal Blade and used a Tier 1 Chop skill on the leopard-like body that had passed him.

Three silver crescent moons bloomed on the Demonic Light Jackal's body, and the Demonic Light Jackal let out a shrill scream, crashing heavily into a tree that three people could hug. Terrifying damage numbers floated above its head: -3076, -4622, -9254.

System: Chop completion 92%, skill proficiency +4, 125% skill effect.

With just one move, the Demonic Light Jackal lost more than 12% of its HP.

"Hmm, 1.5 times the gravity, as expected, it reduces the completion quite a bit," Shi Feng frowned slightly. He was very dissatisfied with the sword strike just now.

As for the monsters becoming smarter, Shi Feng was not surprised at all.

As God's Domain evolved, these monsters would become more and more intelligent. Now they were ambushing healers, and in the future, they would be commanders.

However, Shi Feng had no intention of letting these jackals continue to be arrogant.

He shifted his footwork and turned into a black shadow, rushing directly towards the level 40 Black Demon Jackal.
