Chapter 0006 went more smoothly than expected

Shien drew the holy sword from the lifeless body of the demonic hound, and only then did he instinctively move away

However, seeing such a fierce creature appear before him, Xien still felt a bit apprehensive in his heart

Just forgive Xien, after all, he is someone from another world who has not experienced much combat. It is truly too much to ask of him to charge head-on against such ferocious monsters

Fortunately, after the sun had set, Xien finally found a hiding place that met his requirements

Having successfully slain the hellhound, Xien has once again acquired new skills

At that very moment, such information surged into Xien's mind

By the time Xien reacted, he had surprisingly approached the back of the magical hound without making a sound.

That is a cave located at the bottom of a cliff

It is of no concern; with the holy sword in hand, there is nothing I cannot accomplish

Sien tightened his grip on the holy sword, encouraging himself

The hellhound seems to have fallen asleep, lying in front of the cave, its eyes tightly closed, its back gently rising and falling, and its breathing remarkably steady. However, each breath is accompanied by an extraordinary heat, causing flames to erupt from its mouth, nose, and even the tightly shut gaps of its eyes, making it appear as if it were a hellfire dog guarding the gates of hell, instilling fear in those who behold it

No matter how you look at it, that guy does not seem like the type who would agree to let me go inside

Thus, after the further enhancement of the Holy Sword, the effect of the fully leveled "Concealment" completely exploded

Moreover, if victory can be achieved without any risk, then why engage in a direct confrontation

Even based on the reaction of the [Enemy Perception] skill, this hellhound should be somewhat weaker than the fierce bird from during the day, resulting in a weaker feedback from the skill. However, this time is different from during the day.

The emergence of this skill is truly a timely blessing

The demonic hound, pierced through the body by the holy sword, collapsed directly onto the scorched ground, all flames on its body extinguished. The ground beneath it gradually became stained with blood, leaving only some surrounding weeds ignited and slowly burning.

The emergence of the concealed completely alleviated Xien's concerns

Because ... ...

... ...

Many of the monsters here appear to be nocturnal creatures from https://www.hetushucomcom, which causes them to emerge in various corners of the forest as soon as darkness falls, entering an active state.

At close range, Xien was immediately engulfed by flames, transforming him into a being of fire, subjected to burning

... ...

The opponent is weaker than that bird during the day, and since I can eliminate that bird in an instant, there is no reason I cannot eliminate this dog in the same manner

Upon closer inspection, there is a monster lying in front of the cave

Taking this into consideration, Xien still endured the discomfort, first burying the blood with the surrounding soil, and then dragging the corpse of the demon dog into the cave

It was a formidable creature resembling a leopard, covered in spots, with pitch-black fur, and flames flickering on its back like a magical hound

However, it seems that Shien's "Magic Resistance" skill has taken effect, and the protective effect of the Holy Sword has also been triggered, allowing Shien to remain unharmed even while bathing in flames, without even experiencing the slightest sensation of heat.

Attacking while in a hidden, lurking, or ambush state will increase the probability of a critical hit.

In theory, with the protection of the Holy Sword, as well as the two max-level skills of Physical Resistance and Magic Resistance to mitigate the damage received, Shien should be able to win against the hellhound, which is weaker than the ferocious birds encountered during the day, even in a direct confrontation.

Shien told himself this

Permanent skills

After the second kill of the monster, Xien finally became somewhat accustomed to it, yet the lingering smell of blood still made him feel as if some psychological trauma was being awakened, causing him to hesitate in approaching it

Awoo

"Acquire skill - [Assassination] - Do you wish to learn?"

Xien was momentarily taken aback, and then quickly began to check.

Thus, Xien learned this skill without any hesitation and leveled it up to the maximum level

Call ... ...

In states of concealment, lurking, or ambush, one will be able to significantly discern the weaknesses of the enemy

Xien felt somewhat helpless

Before long, the flames disappeared

As the holy sword descended, the brilliantly shining sharp blade pierced directly through the body of the demon hound

... ...

After the sun sets, the air in the forest becomes increasingly heavy

However, this time, Xien does not intend to engage in direct combat with the opponent

In such circumstances, there is no doubt that the nights here are certainly more dangerous than during the day

In this way, Xien can occupy that cave and turn it into his own hiding place

Xien was at a loss for tears

Permanent skills

Concealment

Pfft

... ...

After all, it is only natural to encounter monsters, as they have specifically followed the feedback from the "Enemy Perception" skill.

Although I had long been mentally prepared for it

Undoubtedly, this is also a rather practical skill, which Xien directly upgraded to the maximum level while in a state of accelerated heartbeat

The hellhound let out a piercing howl, finally awakening from its slumber, opening a pair of red eyes that seemed to be burning, and its entire body erupted with terrifying flames of scorching heat

If it is there, should it allow me to spend a night?

Therefore, Xien tried to lower his breathing and footsteps as much as possible, moving along the direction of the bushes and grass, concealing his figure while cautiously making his way forward

Thanks to these skills, the situation has turned out to be smoother than I had anticipated

Assassination

Sien slowly adjusted his breathing

The sleeping demon dog was completely defenseless, exposing its entire body to Xien's gaze

No wonder you went outside to sleep; it turns out it is so smelly here

Initially, Xien was also concerned that he would be discovered by the other party

Night has ultimately descended

No matter how one puts it, the other party is just a dog. Xien has actually prepared himself mentally for the possibility of being exposed due to the scent.

Shien, hiding in the thicket on the side of the cave, watched this scene, yet did not show any signs of joy on his face

At this moment, Xien took decisive action

When entering states such as hiding, lurking, or ambushing, the degree of elimination of scent, breathing sounds, footsteps, and even presence will depend on the skill level. If the skill level is sufficiently high, the skill can also affect the surrounding environment and other individuals nearby

However, we cannot simply leave the corpse unattended, as it will surely attract monsters drawn by the scent of blood

"Acquire Skill - [Stealth] - Do you wish to learn?"

The cave was filled with the stench of wild beasts, extremely unpleasant, and was scattered with various bones and decaying flesh, seemingly the souls that had perished under the jaws of this hellhound

This time, Xien is not the one being attacked, but rather must take the initiative to strike back at the opponent.
