Lin Jies gaze froze; the game service just started not long ago, and yet, someone was clearing the map already?

Ironwall Empire had initially been arrogant for a few months when the game launched; they cleared maps, killed many, and were extremely overbearing. There was a saying, brutal to the meek and meek to the brutal; there were a lot of players who, after being trampled on, joined the guild for security, thereby expanding the guild and it could seemingly become the number one guild. However, the Ironwall Empire looked tough only on the outside and was weak on the inside. They had easily been taken out by the Kingdom of Glory.

In the distance not far away, there was a conspicuous group of five. The five of them were in the same silver armor, with the team leader appearing to be in his thirties, carrying a shield half the size of a grown man. This person was a team leader of Ironwall Empire, Silver Shield.

The guild had Blacksmiths, Leathersmiths, Potioneers and other jobs for players. Those players would be in charge of providing the guild members with the same set of Blank Equipment at the initial stages. While the equipment was ordinary, their appearances were neat and homogeneous and could be considered a standard package.

If Lin Jie was not mistaken, the armor in Silver Shields hand was also at the Bronze level!

Because of Stumbling Forests skinny branches and sparse leaves, Lin Jie was quickly discovered.

Silver Shield was surprised as he sized up Lin Jie who possessed a Bronze Sword. His eyes gleamed with greed as he yelled, The Ironwall Empire has cleared the map, are you deaf?

Lin Jie coolly stared at them. Silver Shields name appeared light red, an indication that he had killed at least three civilians. When a player maliciously attacked others, his name would turn red, and if he were killed at this juncture, there would be additional punishments such as level-down and fold-increase in spawn rate, etc.

While Silver Shield was greedy, Lin Jie was too. The re-selling price of a bronze shield was not low!

Silver Shield lifted his chin slightly, and two soldiers with default swords were ready on command. With their weapons tight in their hands, they rushed forward. When they were born into the game, they had chosen the basic warrior skill [Forward Charge]. This skill allowed them to quickly close up the distance between them and their enemies while stunning the enemies. That was the specialty of a warrior.

Forward Charge!

Forward Charge!

The two soldiers menacingly shouted; their aura was impressive.

Lin Jie was calm and composed, resting almost half his body on the trunk of the tree. When the Warriors were making a beeline for him, he took a small side step; the two warriors were unable to stop mid-track and knocked into the tree branch with a loud bang.

The conclusion of the attack was formed.

Player Silver Shields team started a malicious attack against you, you have 20 minutes of official defense time!

A players name would not turn red when he killed the malicious attacker during official defense time!

Blade Aura! Lin Jies sword had already cut across one of the warriors neck before he even appeared in front of the warrior.

-21!

Lin Jie disregarded the warriors weak defense and attacked straight at his most vulnerable area. The tremendous damage immediately depleted one-fifth of the warriors health level.

Such such strong damage! Lin Jies continuous two sword strikes left the warrior in a state of shock and only half of his health level remaining.

At that moment, the other warriors attack finally landed on Lin Jie.

-5!

The corner of Lin Jies mouth curled up. Just how much damage could a warrior with default weapon deliver? Moreover, with the wrist guard protecting him, it was impossible for anyone to kill Lin Jie unless the other party also had Bronze equipment.

At this stage, the warriors had only mastered the skill [Forward Charge]. They were, however, at the complete mercy of Lin Jie in near-body combat.

Damn it, Silver Shield cursed. He initiated relief, and suddenly appeared in front of his teammates!

Clang-

-10! (Blocked)

Lin Jies attack was blocked by Silver Shield, but the tremor from the immense force caused slight pain for Silver Shield. If Silver Shield did not have something up his sleeves, how else could he have become a team leader in the Ironwall Empire? With both the Bronze shield and the capability to initiate relief, he was indeed quite capable.

Lin Jie struck his sword forward. Silver Shield raised his armor against the tip of the sword. He was taking Lin Jies attack head-on!

At that crucial moment, with one turn of the sword blade, the sword diagonally struck Silver Shields shoulder, exploding 16 damage points!

Silver Shields gaze turned cold, and continued to block the next attack, but was still struck by Lin Jie from a weird angle! Being able to successfully block attacks with the shield was the prerequisite of a shield warriors strong defense capability. Without his shielding capabilities, Silver Shield was just but a Warrior equipped with Blank Equipment.

Lin Jies consecutive strikes with his sword had left Silver Shields health points hanging by a thread!

Forward Charge!

A loud yell, and a metal, meat-grinder-like shield warrior rushed over! He sported a flat head, with huge visible pores on his face, and an especially prominent scar at the corner of his lips. With his Bronze Shield and Bronze Armor, he was really quite chunky!

That person was Ironwall Empires PresidentThe Heavenly Shield!

Lin Jie was taken aback; the skill level of The The Heavenly Shield was much stronger than the two rookie warriors. While The Heavenly Shield was charging forward, he changed his direction rapidly, and Lin Jie couldnt avoid him even if he tried to reposition himself.

Bang!

Lin Jie was charged straight on, stunned!

-10!

The Heavenly Shields shield struck Lin Jies face, the damage was incredible. He covered Silver Shield with his body and forced Lin Jie back by half a step.

Lin Jies sword hung down, taking in the sight of Silver Shield who was covered in blood, he sniggered coldly.

The Heavenly Shields gaze became heavy and ordered, Protect Silver Shield!

You do not have the capability to do so, Lin Jie declared. He struck his sword across the air, and a flash of Blade Aura flew towards Silver Shield! Who would have imagined that a warrior could utilize long range attack? Silver Shield had fallen!

You killed the malicious attacker, you gained one point of Guild of Light reputation.

The Heavenly Shield was triggered, and he held his shield vigorously, charging towards Lin Jie!

Lin Jie harshly bit down his teeth and gulped down his Elevation Potion. His body weight suddenly lightened, and he straightened his sword as the shield hit him!

Under the effects of the Elevation Potion, Lin Jies body floated. Stepping on the big tree, he used the power of levitation to kick a few strides and ran towards the top of the tree, disappearing in sight.

Boss, shall we chase after him?

For what? The Heavenly Shields face froze, and he turned back to look at Silver Shields corpse, his Bronze Shield already spawning out. Luckily that warrior could not pick it away; otherwise, we would have suffered huge losses!

Gather, and obtain the treasure box first!

Yes Then about Team Leader Silver Shield

He was too self-conceited, it is good to have been dealt a blow. Scrape off his team leader position, and I want him to be suspended for a bit!

Lin Jie hid among the tree leaves, removing his Chanter Longsword and wrist guard into his bag. He had to purchase the Elevation Potion because the gradeless treasure box was located at the top of the big tree! Since he was forced to drink the potion earlier, he could only think of other solutions.

Lin Jie probingly crawled to the end of the tree branch, forcefully jumped ahead and landed stably on the branch of another big tree. He hugged the branch and slid his way towards the tree trunk, making his way forward like that.

As he approached the spawning area of the Gradeless Treasure Chest, the noise level increased.

Lin Jie brushed aside some of the tree leaves and saw that the bottom had been surrounded by The Heavenly Shields men. They could only stare as they did not have the means to climb the big tree.

Not far away, a well-camouflaged treasure box hid in plain sight among the tree leaves, leaving only a small corner visible. Being able to notice the presence of this treasure box, The Heavenly Shield was quite a talent.

Lin Jie forcefully jumped and landed next to the treasure box, and immediately squatted down while holding his breath.

Whoosh-

Whats that sound? The Heavenly Shield sensitively yelled.

Maybe its the wind? Silver Shield, who was only at level 1 after reviving, laughed obsequiously.

The Heavenly Shield frowned and didnt pursue the topic. He waved his hand and said, Stack yourselves, go!

The subordinates followed his orders, leaned against the big tree and started stacking themselves.

On the other hand, Lin Jie squatted next to the Gradeless Treasure Chest and started to open it.

Box opening: 1% 3%

The sound from below was fast approaching as The Heavenly Shield had begun stepping on his guild members shoulders to reach the treasure box.

Kacha-

The treasure box opened.

You have gained a silver coin.

You have gained a Feather Drop Gem (Gold)

You have gained a Skill Book: Wild Charge.

Lin Jie continued ransacking, ensuring that there were no other items before removing his hand from the box. Half a second later, the treasure box disappeared.

[Feather Drop Gem] (Gold)

Can be used by all jobs.

Requires: Level 0, Accessory

All Attributes +1

Additional effect: Feather Drop skill, you shall have the weight of a feather, allowing you to float momentarily, with a cooldown time of 10 seconds.

Lin Jies eyebrows jumped wildly. It was actually a Feather Drop equipment! In the game, there were many types of magical equipment. They did not have strong attributes but had various special effects. The Feather Drop equipment, for example, were spawned only before level 10, with the only announced spawning area at level 4 Arossos Peak Dungeon, and the spawn rate was extremely low.

In his previous life, Feather Drop equipment had fetched extremely high prices. If a new player obtained a Feather Drop equipment before level 10 and sold it, the golden coins he could get was sufficient to get all of the best equipment below level 50.

Unable to believe the Feather Drop Gem could actually be spawned here, plans to clear Arossos Peak could be canceled. In order to obtain the Heritage Broken Blade, he had to be fully prepared, and Feather Drop equipment was one of the most important and difficult aspects of it.

As for the other Skill Book, it was essential for every skilled warrior.

[Skill Book: Wild Charge]

Casting Resource: Action, costs mana.

Skill Description: You can increase 30% of your movement speed while charging forward rapidly, causing 70% damage to the first target you attack, stunning them for 0.5 seconds. When you forcefully cancel the skill, the cooldown time reduces by 2 seconds.

Job Restriction: Warriors, Bandits, Paladins

Charging-type skills were essential near-combat skills. They provided the warrior, a slow-attack job, with a very good speed-increasing skill, allowing them to achieve better effects when coupled with [Forward Charge].

When Lin Jie attached the Feather Drop Gem to his chest, he could almost feel The Heavenly Shields breath!

Wild Charge!

Lin Jies speed increased to a whole new level, activating the Feather Drop gem as he rushed out of the tree branches. With his body as light as a feather, he floated far away, to another tree as Feather Drop gem entered cooldown. After the cooldown was done, Lin Jie continued escaping.

At that moment, The Heavenly Shield, who had witnessed the disappearance of the treasure box, was extremely angry and yelled, Chase him! Kill him at all costs!

The entourage hunting down Lin Jie was huge, while Lin Jie continued floating up towards his targeted destination.

Within the Stumbling Forest was a lakeThe Spirited Lake of the Undead. The key to learning Perfect Potion Mastery was there!

That piece of flat gray lake was within meters as Lin Jie activated the Feather Drop skill, he jumped from the top of the big tree and slid towards the lake.

Stop! The Heavenly Shield stared at Lin Jies disappearing figure and angrily shouted, Without the potion for breathing underwater, you will drown.

Silver Shield unhappily said, Then we simply give up chasing?

Sea-Conquering, bring men with you and stay guard here!

The Heavenly Shield mumbled, The item that allows him to slide is most likely from the treasure box, which means that the treasure box is very high level. All members are to clear the Stumbling Forest until it spawns again!
