Chapter 25 - Chapter 25 – Epic Greedy Hand! Ghostfire Bell!

At this stage, players can only acquire anti-stealth skills at level 1.

But Qin Feng...

With the Shadow class, he naturally has a +1 stealth level.

So, these players naturally can't detect Qin Feng!

Qin Feng wasn't in a hurry to collect the loot on the ground, as there was a protection period for ownership, preventing others from picking it up.

Seeing those players summon the 'Spectral Eagle', Qin Feng knew what they were planning.

"Still thinking of killing me for loot? Dream on..."

Qin Feng smirked to himself.

He moved like an invisible ghost, wandering nearby.

There were about ten people in total, all gathered together, moving towards the corpse of the Golden Ghost Ship...

They guessed that Qin Feng had already fled.

Otherwise, there was no reason they couldn't find him after releasing the Spectral Eagle.

"Smart move..."

The Tall and Skinny Young Man sneered and raised his hand slightly, "But don't get careless, be ready for battle at any moment. The protection period for the BOSS loot is five minutes. After five minutes, the loot will be ours."

The Spectral Eagle flew overhead, waves of anti-stealth energy spreading out, giving them a sense of security.

But then...

Suddenly, a figure flashed through their vision.

Accompanied by countless blades, they all struck at once!

They only saw damage numbers floating around them before their vision went black, dying on the spot!

Shadow Blink Slash!

If they had spread out, it would have been a bit troublesome for Qin Feng to take them down.

But since they were clustered together, they couldn't blame Qin Feng for being ruthless.

He killed them all!

With a flash of blades, twelve gray-white life spheres appeared next to the dismantled 'corpse' of the Golden Ghost Ship...

The entire swamp finally fell silent.

"By the way, where did that girl Lin Liyu run off to?"

Qin Feng glanced around the swamp but saw no one.

He wasn't in a rush to use 'Greedy Hand' on the Golden Ghost Ship's corpse, instead opening his skill panel first.

"I had 6 Evolution Points before, and this BOSS gave me 7, making it a total of 13."

"Evolve Greedy Hand!"

——

[Greedy Hand (Diamond → Epic): Assassin class skill. Has a 220% → 300% chance to gain an additional loot reward. The additional loot has a 100% chance to increase by one grade.]

——

Epic-level Greedy Hand!

A direct transformation!

"A 100% chance to increase by one grade?"

"Isn't that invincible?"

Qin Feng's breathing quickened.

Even after nine years of struggling in the Abandoned Gods Game, he had never heard of such an outrageous skill!

No need to say more, time to loot!

——

[You have used the skill 'Greedy Hand.']

[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]

[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]

[You have gained 7 Evolution Points!]

[You have gained 216 days of lifespan (tradable).]

[You have gained 216 days of lifespan (tradable).]

[You have gained 216 days of lifespan (tradable).]

——

A series of system prompts came through, making Qin Feng's heart race.

In one go, he gained 21 Evolution Points and 648 days of lifespan!

Qin Feng picked up all the tradable lifespan dropped by everyone in the swamp, including over a thousand days of his own...

Then he checked his tradable lifespan: 3115 days!

"Another 21 Evolution Points."

"Continue evolving Greedy Hand."

Qin Feng opened the skill panel.

But just as he was about to evolve Greedy Hand, he heard a system prompt.

——

[The skill 'Greedy Hand' has reached Epic level. Further evolution requires ten times the Evolution Points.]

[Do you want to spend 210 Evolution Points to evolve this skill?]

——

Qin Feng chose no.

Where would he get 210 Evolution Points?

"Evolving from Epic to Legendary requires ten times the Evolution Points..."

"Wouldn't it require even more later?"

Qin Feng sighed.

Fortunately, he could now gain Evolution Points faster.

With the Epic-level Greedy Hand, a Gold-level BOSS would give him 28 Evolution Points.

"In that case, I'll have to evolve other skills first."

Qin Feng shook his head and paused for now.

Instead, he picked up all the loot from the Golden Ghost Ship and examined them one by one.

The most important, of course, was the special item Qin Feng wanted!

——

[Ghostfire Bell (Special Item): When carried, death will not result in lifespan loss, with a cooldown of 1800 (1565) seconds.]

[Soul Absorb [Passive]: Increases lifespan dropped by monsters by 20% when you kill them.]

[Terrify [Active]: Shake the Ghostfire Bell to immobilize all enemies within a 100-meter radius for 3 seconds, with a cooldown of 600 (521) seconds.]

——

This special item is something that even with a thousand years of lifespan in the later stages of the Abandoned Gods Game, you might not be able to buy!

The most important effect is the 'Soul Absorb.'

Increases lifespan dropped by monsters by 20%!

In the Abandoned Gods Game, the importance of [tradable lifespan] is self-evident.

Not only is it needed to extract abilities into reality, but it's also required in many aspects in the mid to late game.

In short, the more tradable lifespan you have, the stronger the player will be!

"And the Ghostfire Bell isn't considered equipment, just an item."

"It doesn't take up an equipment slot, just a backpack slot, making it very convenient to use."

With the Ghostfire Bell, there's an opportunity every half hour to prevent lifespan loss upon death.

For Qin Feng, this also increases his margin for error.

After all, even though he can remain invisible, he's still quite fragile...

Of course, there's one more thing that surprised Qin Feng the most.

"Even killing the Golden Ghost Ship doesn't guarantee a Ghostfire Bell drop."

"Statistics show that the drop rate is around 30%."

"And this time, with the base drop and three additional drops from Greedy Hand, I actually got two Ghostfire Bells?"

In the previous life, no one had ever obtained two Ghostfire Bells!

So Qin Feng didn't know if their effects could stack.

He checked his detailed attributes.

He found the 'Enemy Kill Lifespan Increase' entry and saw it clearly stated 40%!

"Wow, that's insane."

Qin Feng was shocked.

The effects of two Ghostfire Bells can actually stack?

From now on, the tradable lifespan he gains from killing monsters will increase by 40%!

"Unfortunately, in the Abandoned Gods Game, the special effects cooldown of the same item is shared..."

"The passive effect of not losing lifespan upon death will trigger a cooldown for both Ghostfire Bells."

"The [Terrify] active effect is the same; using it once will put both on cooldown."

This is a basic setting in the Abandoned Gods Game.

Qin Feng has played for nine years, so he's well aware.

Still, even if only the 'Soul Absorb' effect stacks, it's already incredibly powerful.

Qin Feng's development speed was already fast.

Now... it's even faster!

Next, Qin Feng continued to check the loot.

Thanks to the effect of Greedy Hand, after taking down the Golden Ghost Ship, he received more than ten pieces of loot.

Among them were eleven Gold-level equipment and skill books, two Platinum-level pieces of equipment, and one Platinum-level skill book!
