Chapter 31

Shifeng walked over without a word, picked up the single-handed sword that was brimming with slaughter.

The Blood Blade could be said to be one of the hardest items to drop in the Hell-level Silent Forest, and it was the best single-handed sword for a swordsman before level 6, with no other comparable.

The Blood Blade, a single-handed sword, was of Mithril grade, requiring 12 points of strength to equip, with an equipment level of 3, +21 attack, +5 strength, +6 agility, +3 stamina, and durability of 30/30.

Its attack power alone rivaled that of a level 5 two-handed bronze battle-axe. The +6 agility significantly increased the swordsman's attack speed, making it an absolute top-tier weapon for swordsmen.

Unfortunately, he couldn't equip this item now. His current experience was only 69% of level 2, and he still needed a lot of experience to reach level 3. Even if he reached level 3, he still couldn't equip it, as swordsmen could only unlock the dual-wielding talent at level 5, allowing them to equip two single-handed swords.

Once he reached level 5, he could hold the Abyssal Blade in his main hand and the Blood Blade in his off-hand, making his attack power virtually unmatched among level 5 players. Just thinking about it made him feel great.

"Brother Feng, hurry up and pick up the loot, I'm getting anxious," Heizi urged repeatedly.

"Yeah, Captain, you can't just enjoy it yourself. At least let us see what loot dropped, to satisfy our curiosity!"

The items on the ground almost blinded everyone, each one eager and anxious, even forgetting the joy of just leveling up to level 2, all they wanted was to see what the two Hell-level bosses had dropped. As for directly running over to grab the loot, no one present would do that, no matter how valuable the items on the ground were, they wouldn't do it.

If they did, they might feel good for a moment, but they would regret it for a lifetime, because Shifeng was the greatest treasure. Even if Shifeng said he wanted all the equipment, no one would object. After all, they were able to get this far thanks to Shifeng, so no one would rush forward to grab the loot, they all stood aside and watched.

"Alright, alright, don't be anxious." Shifeng smiled slightly and began to quickly pick up the items on the ground, satisfied with everyone's behavior.

Unlike in his previous life, when Shifeng occasionally went on raids with some people, as soon as the boss was killed, a group of people would rush forward to grab the loot, and after grabbing the loot, they would leave, making Shifeng speechless with anger.

The reason he didn't set the team to captain loot was to test everyone. It was always good to discover the cunning and deceitful early. Now that no one rushed forward to grab the loot, it made him more at ease with everyone.

In no time, Shifeng had picked up all the dropped items, a total of 19 items and 5 silver coins, a harvest comparable to the entire assets of a large guild.

After slightly organizing his backpack, Shifeng's lips curled up slightly as he saw a forging blueprint.

The Blueprint for the Guarding Armor, which, when learned, could forge a level 3 bronze chest armor, requiring 20 copper ores, 5 bronze ores, and 5 bottles of magic essence.

This equipment was a good thing. As long as the main tank (MT) equipped this armor, it would make the Normal-level Silent Forest much easier, not just because of the high defense and strength, but more importantly, it increased the maximum health by 200 points, which was crucial for the MT.

In his previous life, when this equipment appeared, all the major guilds went crazy, sparing no effort to raid the Silent Forest for the blueprint.

Seeing Shifeng's happy smile, Heizi became even more anxious.

As for the others, if looks could kill, Shifeng would have died a thousand times over.

"The loot is good, you can take a look too." Shifeng 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, with only one Mithril-grade item, the Blood Blade. There were 5 Adamantite-grade items and 9 Bronze-grade items. The Bronze-grade items dropped by the Hell-level bosses were all top-tier, far surpassing the Bronze-grade items dropped by elite monsters outside.

Among all the equipment, besides the Blood Blade being the most precious, the next most valuable were the Adamantite-grade sets for various classes. Adamantite-grade sets were only dropped by Hell-level, while Normal and Hard only dropped Bronze-grade sets.

Heizi had always had good luck. Out of the 5 Adamantite-grade items, two were the Dark Set for the Enchanter. The Adamantite-grade Dark Set was the best Enchanter set before level 5, consisting of 5 pieces: head, chest, legs, shoes, and gloves. This time, the chest and shoes dropped, making Heizi almost unable to stop smiling.

"Brother Feng, I love going to Hell so much. Let's come here every day, so I can complete my Dark Set. Then, if anyone dares to look down on us, I'll blast them," Heizi said, holding the Dark Set proudly.

After equipping the Dark Set, Heizi felt like a real expert, with his spell damage increasing to 66. A level 3 Shadow Arrow could take out more than half the health of a level 1 Shield Warrior. If he completed the Adamantite-grade Dark Set, a single Shadow Arrow could take out a level 1 Shield Warrior.

Wearing a dark gray fur robe and bright black short boots, anyone could tell it was a set.

The others looked at Heizi's shiny Dark Set, almost drooling, filled with envy and jealousy.

They had never imagined that going to Hell could be so enjoyable, hoping they could go more often.

The remaining three pieces were the Guardian Knight, Shield Warrior, and Elementalist sets. Among the present classes, only Kola was a Guardian Knight, so Shifeng gave that piece to Kola, and put the rest of the equipment away.

The remaining Bronze equipment included a shield and a greatsword, both of which were level 2 top-tier items, given to Kola and Jimo Ruxue. The Prophet Sleepy Sloth and the Summoner Greedy Mouse each received a Bronze-grade item.

Shifeng also changed his equipment, with 3 pieces of Bronze-grade equipment for the swordsman, and put the remaining two pieces away.

After everyone changed their equipment, the entire team looked different, each person's equipment was incredibly splendid, clearly not ordinary equipment from a street vendor. The whole team reached level 2, with Heizi reaching 98% of level 2, just a thread away from level 3.

The other four items were a blueprint, a potion recipe, a rare Enchanter skill, and a notebook.

The rare Enchanter skill made Heizi very happy. It was a group attack skill, Hell Flame, dealing 150% fire damage per second to an 8x8 yard area for 5 seconds, with a 36-second cooldown, a powerful skill for early game grinding.

"What's this for?" Shifeng looked at the old notebook in his hand, not remembering that the Hell-level Silent Forest dropped this item.

Flipping it open, it was full of incomprehensible text, but Shifeng knew these were ancient Elvish.

In the Divine Realm, anything related to Elvish was not ordinary, like the Gravity Ring, which had a string of Elvish inscribed on it, giving the ring incredible power.

"Looks like I need to go to the library."

Shifeng felt this notebook was not simple. In his previous life, he had gone to the Hell-level Silent Forest dozens of times and never seen this item drop, and no other guild teams had mentioned it. It was likely a first kill drop, and to understand it, he would have to go to the library to find a translation.

"Brother Feng, what should we do next? Go grinding?" Heizi was eager to try out his new skill.

"Sure, let's go to the Dark Moon Valley to grind, where the monsters drop a lot of ore," Shifeng said after some thought.

With the blueprint in hand, the next step was to gather the materials, but he needed a lot of materials. Now with Heizi's Hell Flame, grinding dogmen and goblins should be quick, and he knew some excellent spots for using Hell Flame.

Shifeng turned to the others and asked, "Do you want to come with us, or do your own quests?"

"Brother Feng, how can I miss out on grinding? I plan to follow Brother Feng from now on," Kola said, fondling his new shield with a smile.

"Brother Feng, can we join too?"

Sleepy Sloth and Greedy Mouse were high school students, now looking down, a bit embarrassed, but they didn't want to miss the opportunity. Shifeng was a great expert, and learning a few tricks from him would be invaluable.

Shifeng smiled and said, "Of course, I welcome you to join."

Immediately, both of them showed excited expressions, clenching their fists tightly.

"Since no one objects, let's go to the Dark Moon Valley to grind."

Shifeng finished speaking, opened the system screen, and chose the team instance teleport, leaving the Silent Forest.
