Chapter 9: Bloodthirsty White Wolf King
When he logged out of the game, it was already 5 in the afternoon. Feng Xiao took a short nap, after all because of the «Rebirth» beta last night, he was so excited he hadn’t slept well.
When he woke, it was around 7 pm. Feng Xiao gave his little sister that was at school a call and the ate a simple dinner. Then he sat down and meditated.
Not feeling the flow of any kind of aura, Feng Xiao could only helplessly sigh, “After practicing the Chaotic Art for sixteen years, I still can’t break through the threshold. The fact that I’m stuck in the first level, adoptive father would be very disappointed.”
Thinking of his adoptive father, Feng Xiao’s mood became even heavier……Many complicated emotions like yearning, warmth, doubts, sadness, hatred were all intertwined. Feng Xiao’s mind went through a large change in emotions.
Feng Xiao’s adoptive father was a very mysterious person. He was so mysterious that even Feng Xiao who had lived with him for 22 years could not figure him out.
When he was three, he had been reprimanded several times not to call him “father” and to call him by “adoptive father”, this ancient sounding title. Only caring about what he thought, he didn’t even care about the mental endurance of a 3 year old child.
When he was four years old, he began to practice the Chaotic Art. Feng Xiao would hear multiple times that he was the only person in the world that could practice this technique. But what was strange was the Feng Xiao had practiced this technique for over ten years and still had not felt a single bit of aura developing, which could be considered inner strength. But his physique and speed had increased at a shocking rate, even surpassing his adoptive father.
But his adoptive father was only stern when it came to practicing, normally he was a very kind and caring father. In order to take care of him and his little sister, he had given up travelling, pursuing the peak of martial arts, his legitimate children, his home country of China, and raised them all by himself. A single man raising two kinds, facing all kinds of sufferings. The brother and sister silently watched it all and were incredibly moved.
His adoptive father would normally say a lot of strange things and do a lot of strange actions, like teaching cultivation techniques that he could not practice or even talking out loud in a strange language. The thing that Feng Xiao found the most mysterious and shocking was the fact that his adoptive father would sometimes go into details about things that had yet to happen. Feng Xiao always believed that if someone told him that his adoptive father was a deity, he would not have found it strange.
Feng Xiao still clearly remembered the words his father said right before he died three years ago.
“Three years from now, Ying Luo will release Rebirth to the world. Xiao’er, you have to be the first person to enter Rebirth! You have to be!”
Feng Xiao did not understand what his adoptive father meant back then and could only nod while he cried. He only understood after «Rebirth» had been promoted after two years had passed……
Slowly calming his heart, Feng Xiao silently said in his mind, “Adoptive father, Xiao’er is already following down the path that you have pointed out. Yao’er is currently in her second year of university and will be home soon for summer vacation.”
“Adoptive father, if you are looking down on us from heaven, watch as Yao’er and I make you proud!”
Thinking of his calamity bringing little sister, the corners of Feng Xiao’s lips rose into a warm smile. With her by my side, I will never feel alone.
The next day, Feng Xiao woke up very late in the morning. After eating a simple breakfast, he lied down in the gaming chamber to enter «Rebirth» once again.
A white light flashed and Feng Xiao appeared in the place where he logged out yesterday. The wolves did not seem to recognize the person who had slaughtered their comrades yesterday. They continued to eat grass, not reacting at all to him when he suddenly appeared.
There were no players around him at all which made Feng Xiao a little surprised. “The white wolves had a good respawn rate and didn’t take the initiative to launch attacks, moreover they gave quite a bit of experience. This should be a very good place to party up and level, yet why are there no players here? Did no one know about this place? But the Beginner Village Map clearly marks this area as the sunset slopes, the level 5 white wolves’ territory.”
If Feng Xiao took a look at the forums or asked the village chief a few more questions, then he would have known the answer. The monsters to the north of the Beginner Village were very docile and didn’t initiate attacks, but they had a low drop rate in terms of coins, potions, and equipment. And with most of the players lacking money, they would not be able to make ends meet here. Only someone like Feng Xiao with high luck, high attack, and high reaction could earn something here.
Since he couldn’t think of the answer, he stopped thinking about it. Feng Xiao had 20 bottles of small red potions in his bag and his energy was completely full, so he set off into the deeper parts of the sunset slopes.
Deeper in was the sunset canyon, it was the territory of the level 8 Fierce Wolves. Feng Xiao looked at his own 200 attack and 450 HP, then he felt that there would not be any kind of danger.
Right as Feng Xiao was about to leave the sunset slopes, a cave had caught his attention.
The cave was around the height of a person and there was rocks and dirt piled all around. It was clearly naturally formed. In the sunset slopes filled with green vegetation, it was very unexpected and conspicuous.
Feng Xiao vaguely remembered that the village chief had mentioned something about a cave, perhaps this cave was filled with treasure? Without any hesitation, Feng Xiao rushed right into the cave. (The village chief cursed out loud, “Fuck! This old man clearly told you not to enter that cave!”)
Once he entered into the cave, he immediately felt a bloodthirsty killing intent. Feng Xiao instinctively dodged to the side and a cold glowing claw flew by his eyes.
What appeared before Feng Xiao was a tall white wolf. Compared to the docile white wolves, its body was twice as large. Its eyes were filled with a red glow as it stared at the intruder in front of him, then an explosive aura surged from its body.
“Ding, Player Wind Spirit, you have trespassed on the Bloodthirsty White Wolf King’s territory and have offended this wolf king’s honour. The Bloodthirsty White Wolf King will continue to attack you until you die or until you leave its territory.”
He didn’t pay anything attention to the system prompt. Instead of feeling fear, Feng Xiao’s heart began to fill with a strong excitement, “Boss, it’s a boss. No wonder it didn’t spawn yesterday afternoon, it was hiding in this place sleeping the whole time!”
What bosses represented was a chance to gain a lot of experience and high quality equipment. Challenging bosses was something that every player loved to do and hoped for. Even if one met a unmatchable boss, they would still call everyone over to gang up on them. Only cowards would run instead of fighting a boss. Well, unless the disparity in strength was truly impossible to surpass.
Bloodthirsty White Wolf King: Level 10 High Level Boss
HP: 1500.
The king of white wolves. Because it continued to absorb the pure spiritual energy of the sunset slopes, it gradually grew into a High Level Boss. It has a peaceful nature, but it will slaughter anyone that intrudes upon its territory.
Skills:
Bloodthirsty: Passive Skill
Absorbs 5% of its damage to recover its HP.
Tearing Claw Attack: Active attack skill
Uses its wolf claws to launch a hard attack against its enemies. Has a high chance to deal a critical attack.
“It’s actually a high level boss.” But Feng Xiao was not worried. His attack power was already comparable to a level 15 player and then add in his reflex abilities, it was not problem for him to fight it alone.
In «Rebirth», the level of bosses from high to low was divided into Normal Level, High Level, White Silver Level, and Yellow Gold Level. There was a large increase in strength between every level. For example, a single White Silver Boss could fight 3 High Level Bosses by itself and a single Yellow Gold Boss could easily deal with 3 White Silver Bosses by itself. Above the Yellow Gold Level Bosses they was the incomparably strong Immortal Beasts, and above the Immortal Beasts there were the legendary Divine Beasts. Above the Divine Beasts, there were the unsurpassed peak existences of the «Rebirth» world – Saint Beasts.
