Samsara Online Chapter 217 Regression of the Holy Angel and Fire Leviathan (1)

On his way to the west of the city, the effect of Fast Movement had already finished and Xie Feng's speed had decreased by a hundred points. In fact, if it weren't for the Purple Wings Baroth running directly in his direction, Xie Feng would have taken several minutes longer to reach the battlefield.

It was fortunate that he arrived just in time to save the potion store owner or the consequences... Xie Feng didn't even want to think about that. To say that potions were the most important consumable for the players was not an exaggeration in the slightest.

[Ding! You have leveled up. You have reached level 19. You get 5 status points, +20 HP, +20 MP, +5 Vitality, +5 Strength, +5 Intelligence, +5 Agility, +1 Movement Speed.]

[Ding!.... Due to the user's lack of power, Calamity Spear has absorbed a minimal part of the experience gained.]

[Ding!... Your pet Ling Long has leveled up. Your pet has reached level 19. +100 HP, +100 MP, +25 Physical Attack Power, +10 Defense, +10 Precision, +2 Evasion.]

After killing so many monsters, Xie Feng's experience bar, which was half full, filled up completely and he gained about 1/4 of the next level's experience. In less than 24 hours, Xie Feng had leveled up three times! This was a feat that would normally be practically impossible were it not for the ongoing mission!

Actually, it was not only Xie Feng; all the surviving defending players had leveled up one or two times.

Moreover, Ling Long had also reached level 19. Xie Feng was excited to see Ling Long's evolution when she reached level 20.

After thinking about it seriously for almost a whole minute, Xie Feng decided that the wisest thing to do would be to add the five free status points to STR; at this point, the higher his strength, the better he would be able to face the final enemy of the 5th wave.

Just as he did with the monsters he killed so far, Xie Feng kneeled down beside the corpse of the Purple Wings Baroth and put his right hand on the beast's body.

[Ding! You have successfully harvested 'Baroth's Pelt'.]

[Ding! You have successfully harvested 'Baroth's Fangs'.]

[Ding! You have successfully harvested Lightning Seed.]

[Ding! You can't harvest anything else.]

Xie Feng stood up and sighed internally. The intermediate level harvesting skill really was extremely useful. In the past, Xie Feng might have had to waste several minutes to harvest a single item, but now he could harvest four items in a matter of seconds.

Xie Feng could still remember how long it took him to obtain a couple of items from the h.e.l.l Guardian in the Beginner Village; although the h.e.l.l Guardian was a King grade boss, in other words, one grade lower than the Purple Wings Baroth, Xie Feng had to put in a lot of effort and was only able to harvest items from the corpse thanks to his high luck attribute.

After rummaging through his inventory for a bit, Xie Feng found a purple seed as small as the size of a grain of rice. Curious, he inspected it.

[Lightning Seed: A normal rock that was refined by the power of thunder for several centuries. The Purple Wings Baroth found it accidentally and swallowed it, evolving into a new type of beast among its kind. Effect (1): After consumption, increases Lightning Resistance +5% permanently. Effect (2): Grants lightning-like attacks to a weapon after it is set by a blacksmith.]

Seeing the effect the small bean had on his hands, Xie Feng almost screamed out loud.

+5% Lightning Resistance permanently!

Obtaining magic resistances was extremely hard and only special equipment or extremely difficult to obtain t.i.tles increased magic resistances. For example, the t.i.tle 'G.o.d of Wind' increased Xie Feng's wind resistance by 20%, and, considering that this t.i.tle could only be obtained by him after his wind resistance exceeded 100%, one could appreciate the difficulty of obtaining it. If it were not for his Esper power in the real world, Xie Feng would not even come close to possessing wind immunity.

However, the small consumable item in his hands increased his lightning resistance by 5% permanently just from eating it!

As if that wasn't enough, this little seed could also be encrusted in a weapon. In other words, it could enhance the power of a weapon and even had the possibility of obtaining a special skill after being sent to a blacksmith! Such items were extremely expensive and valuable, not to mention the difficulty one had to experience and overcome in order to have the possibility of obtaining them since in reality, nothing was certain!

After a moment's consideration, Xie Feng finally decided to eat the seed.

[Ding! You have consumed Lightning Seed. Your lightning resistance has increased by +5%.]

Xie Feng did not dare to try to modify the Calamity Spear. As for changing weapons? Xie Feng did not believe that at this stage of the game there was a weapon more powerful than the Calamity Spear in his hands, it was impossible for him to change weapons. Moreover, he felt a strange connection between the Calamity Spear and him that he could not explain in simple words.

When Xie Feng looked behind him, he saw that several players had taken the potion store owner and the little girl towards the center of the city, moving them as far away as possible from the four battlefields that were raging in the north, east, west, and south.

After calling Yang Tian and saying a few words to him, Xie Feng did not return to the south gate nor did he return to the east gate where Mu Wuying was. Xie Feng got on Ferghana's Horse and rode at full speed to the west gate.

Although most of the players there were part of the Nangong family's Sacred Wings guild and Nangong Lei had probably already left several people in charge of the place, Xie Feng simply could not confide in them.

* * *

-South Gate.

The ground for several kilometers across the length and breadth outside the southern walls of Eminentis City was covered with corpses. The corpses of at least two million amphibious monsters and several hundred thousand players were everywhere, as far as the eye could see, there was no place free of bodies and death.

Many people who in the past complained about the censors.h.i.+p of blood in the virtual world rejoiced and realized how childish their thoughts were. At this point, if it were not for the censors.h.i.+p they complained about, probably the minds of the vast majority would have been completely broken.

You should know that seeing a little blood and seeing rivers of blood were two completely different stories! Many would not even have the power to point the blade of their weapon at another living being.

"Well... That was difficult." Yang Tian sighed in relief after the last monster of the fourth wave was killed.

Although no final boss appeared, the number of losses on the players' side was simply terrifying. Of the approximately 1.4 million original players, there were only 200,000 players left alive.

Fortunately, everyone seemed to notice that from the third wave on, the pattern of boss appearances changed completely. Bosses no longer appeared on all four battlefields and only the unluckiest would have to deal with a terrifying beast. So far, the south was not chosen by the bad luck G.o.ddess.

But no one was relieved yet because there was still the fifth and undoubtedly most difficult wave of attack to overcome.

"Miss Xie..." Yang Tian looked at Xie Yao and uttered a little awkwardly.

Xie Yao smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Young Master Yang, just call me Xie Yao. I don't like formalities..."

"Alright, I'll call you Xie Yao then. In return, just call me by my name too." Yang Tian didn't hesitate for a second before nodding. It was really awkward for him to treat someone with so much respect when he wouldn't even give it to Gu Qianxue.

"Then, can you do your business? I don't think we can hold out against the fifth wave with only 200 thousand players defending.... Although just in case I still have my strongest skill..." Yang Tian remarked as he looked at the battlefield.

The place that was once teeming with living players like water in a huge ocean had now turned into a desert. Although 200 thousand was a big number, considering that there were many kilometers to protect and cover, it was not as much as needed.

Xie Yao nodded severely, understanding what Yang Tian meant. Under the eyes of all the elite players, Xie Yao walked forward and closed her eyes while clasping her hands together in a prayer posture.

Everyone focused their gaze on her and kept silent.

After several seconds, Xie Yao's body began to glow with a white radiance as pure as snow itself. She looked holy and sacred at the same time; no one could have the slightest unholy thought when witnessing such a scene.

Swoos.h.!.+

Suddenly, a pillar of white light shot into the sky, shocking all the players. But that was not all.

After the pillar of light hit the clouds and scattered them, the white light began to take shape until it transformed into an angel-like silhouette. However, the silhouette was so unclear that if one did not concentrate hard enough one would not notice it. The only thing that everyone could mostly notice was that behind the angel's back, there were twelve pure snow-white wings.
