Reborn: Super God of War

“Trial?” Lin Jie was slightly surprised, but he suddenly recalled something. Many gods would leave various trial missions. The difficulty of these missions varied, so it was hard to know what the rewards would be. However, the favorability of the gods would more or less increase. Maybe, one might really be able to come in contact with real gods when doing gods’ trial missions, or they could even… replace them?

Lin Jie was shocked by such a thought as he understood just how fearsome the game’s gods were. Hence, why would he have such a crazy idea to replace them?

“Adventurer, I hope you can save me!” The Goddess of Moon’s voice became fainter. She created a dim light ball, which completely enveloped Lin Jie.

Ding~

—’You have accepted the Goddess of Moon Trial, enter the trial space, and kill the Seal Guardian!”

The scenery changed, and Lin Jie had entered a chaotic space. Pitch-black chaotic holes could be seen above, below and all around him. The gloomy dark atmosphere made it hard for one to breathe. There was only a shallow crescent moon in the sky, which shone pleasant moonlight.

Suddenly, the sky was torn apart, and a humongous creature with two horns and emitting a Primordial aura, Seal Guardian, had appeared once again. It looked downwards at the small ant on the ground and slammed its palm to the ground heavily.

[Seal Guardian] (Sub-Legendary Overlord): Level 80,

Health Points: 1,800,000/??? (The Seal Guardian is a powerful existence protecting the super-large magic circle. Its survival depends on the magic circle as it can absorb unlimited energy from it.)

“Magic circle?” Lin Jie carefully examined the mission notice. There were no missions that could definitely not be completed. If that really existed, then the system would not give it to players. Instead, it would become a historical event and be made known to the land through Epic information until players had amassed enough strength. Only after that would it be released.

Since Lin Jie was sent to this place, there was a way to complete it!

“Seal Guardian! Go!” Lin Jie blew a whistle, and the Silver-Feathered Eagle flew out from the Pet Space. It flew towards the Seal Guardian in the sky swiftly, and each time it flapped its wings, a small whirlwind would be formed.

The Silver-Feathered Eagle was much more majestic than before as it had finally understood too that being a pet for alternate realm humans was not all smooth sailing. It had already understood such a thing from dying numerous times. The Silver-Feathered Eagle had only truly started its journey of evolving now.

Screech—

The Silver-Feathered Eagle’s speed increased once again, and with a swerve to the side, it skillfully avoided the Seal Guardian’s smash. It stopped in the air and carefully observed the Seal Guardian’s face.

Lin Jie saw that scene clearly through Spirit Vision. There was a hexagram mark in the eyes of the Seal Guardian—that was where the Brilliant Circle of Life was! In other words, its weakness!

“Come back!” shouted Lin Jie.

The Seal Guardian’s palm had already grabbed towards the Silver-Feathered Eagle, to these types of scouting-type pets with less than 100 Health Points, no descriptive data was needed as its death was inevitable!

Boom—

After a moment, Lin Jie did not receive the message of the Silver-Feathered Eagle’s death. That tenacious eagle had let out a high-pitched screech as it charged out from the Seal Guardian’s fingertips!

—’Your Pet, Silver-Feathered Eagle has learned the skill [Moonlight Dash]. It can turn into a ray of light and fly forwards rapidly in one second. Its Movement Speed will increase by 300% and ignore obstacles. Cooldown time is 15 seconds.’

—’Your Pet has entered the evolution state, Energy Bar: 1/3,000.’

Swoosh—

The Silver-Feathered Eagle flew towards Lin Jie and entered its Pet Space.

“Good job!” Lin Jie laughed heartily as he placed his Broken Blade in front of him. In his eyes reflected the huge body of the Seal Guardian. Lin Jie’s Holy Light Winged Armor moved and instantly turned into eight spider legs.

Lin Jie activated Hunter’s Forward Charge and charged right in front of the Boss with a swoosh. The eight spider legs attached themselves firmly onto the Seal Guardian’s limbs like the tentacles of an octopus. He climbed up towards its head.

Shield Cut!

How fast was Lin Jie’s speed? After activating Wind Walk, even Bandits would find it hard to catch up to him. Broken Blade was slashed towards the Seal Guardian, and only the bright sword aura of its trajectory could be seen in his line of sight. In the next instant, the sword was slashed into the pupil of the Seal Guardian.

Resist!

—’Seal Guardian is immune to skills under Level 5. Your attack is invalid.’

—’Your skill [Shield Cut] has received 10 Proficiency Points.’

“Huh?” Lin Jie was slightly surprised. Not only because the Seal Guardian was immune to the skill, but also since it was a powerful existence that guarded the seal of a god, it had to be abnormally strong to be able to do it!

What Lin Jie was shocked was the proficiency received—it was actually as high as 10 points! One should know that it was extremely difficult for players to obtain skill proficiency.

Take Lin Jie for example, although Shield Cut was a skill taught by the God of War, besides having exceptional effects in dispelling skills like Magical Shield, its effects were not notable in other times.

Meanwhile, the reason was that Lin Jie’s Attack attribute was too high! Compared to it, that bit of damage from that skill was really negligible.

Therefore, the frequency in which Lin Jie used that skill was low. As such, the Shield Cut was only Level 2, 1,029/5,000. Just Level 2 and 5,000 Proficiency Points were required. Even if the cooldown time and mana consumption were not taken into consideration and one used it crazily, a long period of time was still needed to be able to raise its level.

The few high-level skills Lin Jie had were all, without exception, upgraded with Skill Points, which had been exchanged at the Atlas Peak using New Age Accomplishment Points. Meanwhile, now, just using the skill once, one could obtain 10 points of proficiency? That was really pennies from heavens!

A treasure land! This was definitely a land of treasures!

What Goddess of Moon? Lin Jie could not save her, but he had to stay in this map for as long as possible! As a person who was reborn, he understood the importance of skill levels better than anyone else. As the players’ equipment gradually improved and slowly balanced out, when players were unable to overpower each other using equipment, then the decisive factor would be focused on two factors: skill and technique!

Lin Jie opened his hand, and dragon roars could be heard, Dragon Armor Removal was activated! So coincidentally, he attacked the inside of the Seal Guardian’s nostrils, one of the weakest parts of the Boss’ body.

—’Your skill [Dragon Armor Removal] has received 20 Proficiency Points.’

“Indeed! By attacking its weak points, not only is there attack enhancement, but also proficiency enhancement.” Lin Jie was elated. There was a certain rule in obtaining proficiency for skills such as when activating it normally, there would be chances to obtain 1 Proficiency Point. If Critical Hits or Weak Point Damage was dealt, then there would be chances to obtain 2 Proficiency Points, and so on. These were all related to the technique of the player.

However, who was Lin Jie facing? It was the powerful existence guarding the Brilliant Circle of Life! Wouldn’t such a creature have some special skills up its sleeves? Lin Jie thought for a moment, then he directly carried his Broken Blade behind his back and took out a Gold longsword.

Such a Sub-Legendary Overlord could most likely be a “Health Points trigger-type” Boss, such as activating a skill when its health decreases by 10%, then activating other skills when its health dropped again. If that was so, then equipping Broken Blade would be a dumb thing to do! That was because what Lin Jie required the most now was for more chances to attack and farm proficiency, not damage.

Lin Jie made up his mind to train all of his skills to Level 5. It was fine even if he did not complete the Goddess of Moon trial!

Therefore, he used a trash weapon! The Seal Guardian now could only use physical attacks, so with his technique and various skills and items, it was simple to dodge the attacks easily.

Training, begin!

Lin Jie excitedly took a deep breath, and with a swing of his longsword, he pounced towards the Seal Guardian like a hungry tiger pouncing at its prey.

…

“Pant… Pant…”

In the Land of Moonfall, Bu Yi crawled towards the peripheral as she rapidly activated healing spells onto herself. Finally, before depleting the last shred of her mana, she escaped to a safe place. She heaved a long sigh of relief and started to sit down to recover. Her eyes however, stared at where Lin Jie had disappeared, and she murmured, “Sigh, I still didn’t help much. He entered a map by himself again.”

At that moment, Bu Yi’s communication device started ringing crazily.

“Bu Yi, something big happened!” shouted Zheng Ziliang hurriedly. “The fourth Main Plot Dungeon [Fallen Abyss] has been released! I can’t contact Jie, can you find him? Ask him to hurry and come out! We will be going to clear the dungeon soon.”

Bu Yi let out a shocked gasp. “It’s released already?”

“Of course! So, where is Jie?”

“He is doing a mission.” Bu Yi looked at the direction where Lin Jie had disappeared worriedly.

“I’ll go call him offline!” Zheng Ziliang was an impatient person, so he immediately decided to take off Lin Jie’s helmet to wake him.

“Hey, hey, hey, Ziliang, don’t!” Bu Yi hurriedly said, “I have a thought. Since our team is called Savage Blade, then there are times when the team is incomplete¹. Before, when Lin Jie was the brain of our team, our commander, he was even just like the person manipulating string puppets. So why don’t we… clear it ourselves this time and get a first clear, how about that?”

Zheng Ziliang was surprised. “Without Jie?”

“That’s right. It can’t be that we won’t be able to do it just by ourselves, right?”

“Erm…” Zheng Ziliang’s frown suddenly turned into a smile, and he shouted loudly, “That’s right! I’ve been f*cking influenced by that guy and gotten used to him being around until it’s like we won’t be able to accomplish anything without him! Alright, let’s not call him this time. Not only will we not include him, but I also won’t even tell him at all! Who told him to always go everywhere alone, this time we won’t even give him a bit of experience. Let’s go. I’ll go gather the people!”

Bu Yi smiled happily. “Sure!”

The call was hung up.

Bu Yi’s smiling face slowly disappeared. She knew how difficult it was for Lin Jie to enter the map, then correspondingly, the difficulty of the mission it contained would definitely be extremely high. However, at the same time, the rewards would be extremely rich too! With his personality, if he knew that the fourth dungeon was released, then it was possible that he might give up on the reward that was about to be obtained for everyone. He would leave the map and bring everyone to the new dungeon. Thus, he must not know to allow him to have peace of mind.

However, Bu Yi could not say it out directly as Lin Jie was simply too important in Savage Blade—he was the pillar of the whole team! If the fact that he could not come was revealed, it would probably lower the morale of the team. Bu Yi had learned from Lin Jie, and as such, used that method to deal with the problem. She rubbed her temples and could not help but chuckle. “It’s really tiring to think so much.”

…

Presently, The New Age had once again been riled up.

The fourth Main Plot dungeon—Fallen Abyss was released!

Fallen Abyss was the first map related to hell. The abyss was filled with a super-large number of Devils and Undead creatures. All along, these types of Dark monsters were the representatives of high experience and high drop-rate. Meanwhile, the equipment dropped in the Fallen Abyss had already been made public—each monster had a relatively small chance to drop [Dark Gem] and [Felsteed].

Once the announcement was released, no matter if it were major guilds, small-scale workshops, or solo player organizations, they had all crazily rushed towards the Fallen Abyss!
