Chapter 73: Chapter 72 His biggest ally and his biggest enemy

Xie Feng took care of the ten Shadow Skeletons without any problem and this area of the Shadow Forest was silent again.

Of the ten skeletons, none of them dropped anything even with the difference in levels between them and Xie Feng. Not even the twenty lucky points managed to change this fact.

Except for a pile of bones, there wasn't even a copper coin on the ground.

"Tsk... they are even stingier than that old man in the mount shop". Xie Feng clicked his tongue and groaned a little while kicking a pair of white bones.

Xie Feng's eyes glowed slightly and after looking around and making sure there were no more skeletons, he finally continued walking forward.

After walking for another ten minutes and killing all the skeletons that appeared in his path, Xie Feng was standing and watching the monsters that walked in his direction.

They were also skeletons, however it was different compared to the other skeletons he had previously fought.

All the skeletons that Xie Feng fought so far were just a bunch of white bones and nothing else. There was nothing but bones. However, these skeletons had clothes on like humans, some pieces of flesh hanging off and, surprisingly, blood.

Blood!

An element or effect that should be blocked by the game to avoid trauma in people with a weak mentality, in reality these monsters were bathed in blood!

Even Xie Feng unconsciously took a step back when he saw the abominable appearance of these monsters.

[Semi-full skeleton]

[Level: 10]

[HP: 900]

[Description: In the near past it was only a human being, however it was corrupted by undead magic and transformed into something that is neither monster nor human. An unfinished product.]

(Skills):

[Fear (innate skill): Due to its appearance, it has a high probability of scaring the enemy by making their attacks fail. The effect is passive.]

After recovering quickly from the initial surprise, Xie Feng inspected the monster in front of him and was surprised again. He was surprised for two reasons.

The monsters should be stronger as he goes deeper into the Shadow Forest. That was the case with the Creepy Shadows and the Shadow Skeletons. However, the monster in front of him was clearly weaker than the Shadow Skeletons. At least, its level is lower and it doesn't have a high resistance. But on the other hand, the movement speed of the Semi-Full Skeletons was higher.

The other reason he was surprised is because of the description.

An unfinished product.... In the near past it was a human being.... Undead Magic....

Xie Feng's eyes suddenly trembled after he connected these three points.

[Ding!..... Mission Update!]

[Mission Name: Light in the Darkness]

[Type of mission: Unique]

[Mission grade: A]

[Mission requirements: Patience / Kindness]

[Mission description: Yue Qingyu's husband and daughter went into the forest three days ago and have not yet returned. Yue Qingyu wants you to help her find them as soon as possible.]

[Mission Objective (Updated): Save Yue Qingyu's daughter]

[Reward for success: None]

[Punishment for failure: None]

[Time limit (Updated): 46 hours]

[Ding!.... Your current level is too low which reduces the success rate of the mission]

*Sssss!*

When the mission was updated, Xie Feng could not help but breathe fresh air while he contained the urge to curse.

The mission time limit was four days but now it is only two days, half that. For this, Xie Feng does not have a very clear idea of the reason.

However, when he saw the change in mission objectives, Xie Feng's view became a little more complicated.

In the past, the objectives of the mission were to find and help the girl and her father. However, the current objective clearly stated only to save the girl.

Xie Feng could not help but feel a pang of sadness as she remembered the tired, desperate, pain-filled look on her face.... but with a faint glimmer of hope from the middle-aged woman when he agreed to help her reunite her family again.

Xie Feng began to walk forward with a frightening expression. At this point, his face was even more frightening than the bloodied appearance of the Semi-Full Skeleton.

However-

*Ka!*

He looked down with a cold look. There, a hand of bone came out of the ground and held tightly to his right foot. The hand was doing nothing more than that, stopping his movement.

[Bone Hand]

[Level: 0]

[HP: 50]

[Description: A hand made of bone created with undead magic]

(Skills):

[Catch: Catches and stops the movement of the enemy for 3 seconds or until it is destroyed]

Xie Feng's answer was simple:

"LET GO!!"

-144 *Bang!*

After a scream that echoed throughout the place, he kicked the bony hand and destroyed it. Now, his physical attacks even without a weapon take considerable damage after applying 100% extra physical damage from the Wind Aura skill.

The reason Xie Feng was so furious is not because the girl's father is probably dead. The main reason is neither Yue Qingyu's sadness when she learns about this news.

He is upset with himself.

The real reason he is furious is because this is the second time.

The second time he will not be able to keep his word!

The second time he fails to fulfill his goal!

The second time he feels so weak!

Even those days when he was hungry and his body froze cold, he didn't feel as useless and powerless as he does now.

Even if he owes nothing to Yue Qingyu, even if she is an NPC, a lot of data that only exists in this world.... He gave her his word.... He agreed to help her.

Although at the time he said 'I will try to bring your family back', for him it was an undeniable and undisputed fact that it would definitely happen.

For others it may be a silly and meaningless reason. But for someone who has such a high level of pride, to fail at something so simple that a normal person would quickly forget, becomes a torment.

This pride is what makes him who he is, and it is undoubtedly his best ally.

Because that pride makes him who he is. If he cannot even believe in himself, then who can he believe in?

But that same pride is also his worst enemy.

But he still remembers that he also promised to take that little girl back to her mother.... even if he dies.

Even if half and incomplete, he would make sure to keep his word.

Even if he dies!

***

Seeing the approximately 6 Semi-full Skeletons running towards him, Xie Feng did not hesitate just because they were human recently.

"I no longer have time to play with you guys". I murmur Xie Feng as he holds out his right hand.

*Tzzz!*

A black light flashes over the Ring of the God of Destruction.

Dark Lightning!

Although the Dark Lightning skill has a cooldown of 60 seconds and became obsolete after Xie Feng got his Emperor of the Wind profession, it is more than enough for this situation.

-510

-508

-1016 Critical Hit!

-507

.

.

The entire area ten meters in front of Xie Feng was dyed black with countless lightning strikes like snakes hitting the Semi-full Skeletons.

For the first time after so many hours of fighting, a critical hit was activated and instantly killed one of the monsters.

Xie Feng did not stop and ran to the five remaining Semi-full Skeletons. After readjusting his position a few times, causing the monsters to follow his movements and get into a favorable position for him, Xie Feng made a huge horizontal slash with his sword

-400.... -400.... -399.... -399.... -400

The five Semi-full Skeletons lost their entire health bar and fell to the ground. Xie Feng even thought he saw a flash of gratitude in the eyes of the monsters that not long ago were human.

The Semi-Full Skeletons did not drop even one bronze coin, as did the Shadow Skeletons that Xie Feng fought before.

However, he now knows the reason why these monsters did not drop any items until now. It's because they are not mobs automatically generated by the system. They all used to be human, but were killed and used to experiment with undead magic, becoming a undead that can't even rest in peace.

Thinking about that poor innocent girl of only ten years old could become one of these monsters at any moment, Xie Feng clenched his teeth and started to run deeper into the Shadow Forest.

***

The number of semi-full skeletons increased as he went deeper into the forest and closer to the mountain, now visible to the naked eye.

After killing approximately 50 of them, a new monster appeared blocking Xie Feng's path again. The monster looked different from the previous skeletons. It was clearly a new kind of monster.

However, even so, he did not stop his steps and continued running forward as he used 'inspect'.
