Chapter 26: Obtained the Skill, Frost Descent!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

[System notification: you have entered the Map, Frost Worship Ground!]

Lu Yuan was stunned. The name of the map had changed.

He had thought that he would reach the second floor of the Frost Cave, but unexpectedly, it was the Frost Worship Ground.

After entering the place, Lu Yuan found that the surroundings were filled with condensed frost elements.

Clusters of pale blue elements had already condensed into a solid form and were floating in the air, emitting a pale blue light.

As if they were being pulled, the pale blue frost elements were gradually drifting into a deeper part of the area.

Lu Yuan could not help but frown slightly. “This is... ?”

It seemed very eerie.

Without having the time to think it over, Lu Yuan continued to explore while his Stealth state was not over yet.

The findings of his exploration were that he reached the conclusion that this map was very strange.

In the middle of the map was a piece of land that was made up of floating ice blocks, and expanded into the area like a spider web.

Under it was a bottomless abyss. It was pitch-black, and it looked very unsettling.

On top of that, the path in the middle was guarded by the giant frost apes!

Lu Yuan approached carefully and found that these giant frost apes were already at level 35!

He would be completely destroyed if he even got close to them! There was no way he could beat them!

They could probably kill Lu Yuan with a light slap.

Lu Yuan moved nimbly and easily bypassed them.

Then, in the middle of the path, Lu Yuan saw many different paths. Each path was guarded by giant frost apes.

Lu Yuan even saw a few that seemed to have evolved. They had purple fur all over their bodies, and they were even stronger and fiercer.

Those should be an even more powerful species.

When he reached this spot, Lu Yuan knew that there was no need to continue exploring, because this was no longer something he could deal with.

The moment his Stealth entered cooldown, he would be killed very quickly, thus it was not worth it.

Seeing that the duration of his Stealth was left with a little over 30 seconds, he quickly left the place, his pace while returning was like lightning.

Phew!

Lu Yuan finally managed to retreat from the dangerous area just before his Stealth entered cooldown.

In the area where he was now, the levels of the giant frost apes were below level 20.

For the time being, they would not pose a threat to Lu Yuan.

Since the mission only required the blood essence of the giant frost apes, without a requirement for level, it should be fine for him to just fight with the giant frost apes in the outer area.

It was just conveniently so that the monsters in the outer area were spawned more densely, so he could also treat this as training to level up.

Hence, Lu Yuan held a dagger in his hand and fixed his gaze on one of the giant frost apes.

[-38!]

[-41!]

[-42!]

[-39!]

[-40!]

...

A series of damage was inflicted on the ape. It was extremely enjoyable to fight.

Lu Yuan was also enjoying such a battle.

...

After an unknown amount of time.

Lu Yuan finally finished collecting 100 portions of the giant frost apes’ blood essence.

“I’m so tired I might die. He actually asked for 100 portions of giant frost apes’ blood essence, such a beast.”

Lu Yuan looked at his EXP bar and found that it was already at 99%.

He should be able to level up after completing the quest.

Just as Lu Yuan was about to return to the city, he suddenly heard the sound of a system notification.

There was a second player who had entered a main city, but it was in an overseas region.

Lu Yuan could not help but frown. According to the current progress of the game, after there were players in the overseas region that entered one of the main cities, the players of the domestic region would be soon to arrive as well.

He believed that it wouldn’t be long before a large number of players would rush in and enter the main cities.

When that time came, the main cities would be very lively.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan had no choice but to speed up his progress.

This was because his advantage was his advanced knowledge about some of the hidden missions, as opposed to the other players.

If he was any slower, the other players might discover the missions on their own.

In his previous life, Lu Yuan had seen a lot of strategy geniuses research and discover the trigger conditions of many hidden missions.

Almost every NPC’s background had been discovered by those guys!

As such, Lu Yuan had to hurry up.

...

Lu Yuan looked at the time. Only four to five hours had passed, time was still sufficient, so he returned to the second floor of Dawn Tavern.

Sure enough, Rogge had not left yet. He was still drinking till he was drunk here.

It looked like he was a living drunkard in the flesh, with no hint of his bearing as a mage.

Lu Yuan went up to talk to him and found that Rogge was completely ignoring him.

He was mumbling nonsense about wine and so on.

Lu Yuan was speechless when he heard that. This guy couldn’t be trying to trick him into buying another bottle of wine for him, right?

However, to trigger the conversation, Lu Yuan could only endure it. 𝒇𝔯e𝚎𝘄𝑒𝑏𝙣𝑜𝚟𝗲𝑙.c𝘰𝚖

He went downstairs and bought another bottle of wine that cost two gold coins, then spoke to Rogge again.

“Sir Rogge, the good wine is here.”

Lu Yuan opened the wine stopper and immediately, a strong smell of wine wafted out from it.

Rogge seemed to instantly sober up and snatched the wine from Lu Yuan’s hand.

Gulp, gulp, gulp!

After gulping down a few mouthfuls, Rogge felt comfortable all over.

“Good wine! Good wine!”

After that, Rogge raised his head and saw Lu Yuan.

“It’s you. You’re back so soon? How was it? Did you collect 100 portions of the frost giant apes’ blood essence?”

Lu Yuan directly threw the 100 portions of blood essence to Rogge.

“It’s all collected.”

Rogge looked at the 100 portions of blood essence with disbelief in his eyes.

“Oh my God, you did it, and in such a short time! Come, this is your reward.”

With this, Rogge raised his hand and a golden light entered Lu Yuan’s body.

[Congratulations on completing the mission — Traces of Frost!]

[Obtained 1,000 EXP! Obtained 10 gold coins! Obtained skill Frost Descent!]

[Frost Descent] (cannot be upgraded)

[Effect]: Consumes 100 MP to summon frost to deal continuous frost damage to the target area, causing 100+10 Intelligence damage for 10 seconds. Cooldown: 180 seconds.

[Description]: This is a forbidden spell that mage Rogge spent a lot of effort to create. However, there was a problem in the final stage, causing the power of this spell to be permanently fixed at the initial stage, which is also Rogge’s lifelong regret.

Lu Yuan could not help but cheer in his heart when he saw this skill!

That’s right! It’s this skill!

The first player to complete this mission would obtain a version of the skill that was slightly stronger. There would be an additional 100 fixed damage, and the cooldown time would also be reduced by 20 seconds.

However, this was only a small advantage.

Still, it was enough for Lu Yuan!

With his talent, he could upgrade the Frost Descent skill once again!

With this thought, Lu Yuan used his skill point on it.
