Chapter 14 - Surrounded

[Conditions for the slime boss have been met. Prepare for a fight.]

A notification appeared in front of Lin Feng.

There was no difference; a big slime appeared with a defense.

-0

The amount of damage instantly fell.

However, no one was discouraged; they kept shooting arrows whether they hit or not.

If not for Lin Feng repeatedly reminding them not to step out of the protection shield, they would've long chosen a melee fight to kill the slime boss.

A melee fight is easy after all, but Lin Feng was worried they would get injured so he did not take the risk.

Anyway, he has a lot of arrows.

It did not take too long and soon the slime boss fell. However, right after, a new slime boss appeared.

Everyone looked frustrated as it took time to kill; nonetheless, no one backed out and kept firing arrows.

Slowly yet surely everyone's aim was getting better.

Even Lin Feng could shoot accurately.

"Finally they are all dead."

Everyone cheered and stepped outside to collect the drops.

[Obtained Slime Gel*23, Monster Core*11 and Copper Coins*16]

The drops were really low.

"Everyone be careful now; we are not inside the protection shield anymore," Lin Feng reminded seriously.

Hearing this, everyone except Fang Wei became tense. They were not warriors after all so facing a monster without a shield scared them.

Nonetheless, no one backed out.

"Good. It's better to be cautious. Now let's go; we will kill monsters and search for the mine," Lin Feng stated as he glanced at mountains a few hundred meters away from him.

Yesterday he sent Fang Wei to collect intelligence and he didn't disappoint him.

Fang Wei even stepped out of the protection shield secretly to observe the types of monsters around the territory.

However, he did not go too far and after gathering enough intelligence, he returned.

From him Lin Feng learned there were three types of common monsters near his territory: slimes, wild boars, and rabbits.

Of course the place Fang Wei investigated was just south, near the water source, which meant the information wasn't complete.

However, it was enough for now, as Lin Feng had decided to lead everyone in the south.

Furthermore, as long as one was cautious, there was no need to fear level one monsters. No matter what, it can't kill them with one attack. The only thing they need to worry about is serious injuries and poison.

After explaining a few things, Lin Feng led everyone further.

It did not take too long and they encountered some wild boars.

"Shoot with all your might! If they come close, leave everything to Fang Wei," Lin Feng instructed.

Currently only Fang Wei could fight in close combat; everyone else might just injure themselves or others. Hence, he could only leave it to him.

Anyway, as long as the arrows hit, the wild boars will lose their fighting power by a lot.

Fang Wei did not refuse; if Lin Feng hadn't suggested it, he would've said it.

He was a warrior after all. Fighting with arrows did not excite him; he loved close combat most.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

After a signal, everyone launched their arrows towards five wild boars.

The boars were furious and since everyone was not inside the protection shield, they charged towards them.

But how could everyone let them get close? They continued shooting arrows whether they hit or not. All they wanted to do was slow down the boars while Fang Wei and others with good aim shot down vitals.

[Killed level 1 wild boar …]

Soon the prompts rang out.

Fang Wei was disappointed as he did not get to fight; nonetheless, he was also relieved as others cooperated wholeheartedly.

With the firepower of more than twenty people, what kind of level one monster could they not kill?

[Congratulations, you have leveled up!]

[Obtained ten free attribute points]

Looking at the prompt, Lin Feng felt a surge of excitement.

Finally, after the hard work of two days, he had leveled up.

However, when he thought of the next level, which required two hundred experience, his face fell.

Damn you, Mist World!

He cursed inwardly while deciding on his attributes.

There was no hesitation; he put three points each in strength, agility, and constitution. As for the remaining one, it went to spirit.

The next moment a warm current flooded in his body and he felt full of strength.

'This feels great,' he thought to himself.

[Name: Lin Feng]

[Level: 2 (2.3/200)]

[Attributes: Strength: 7, Agility: 6, Constitution: 7, Spirit: 31]

[Skills: None]

Now his strength and constitution attributes were one point higher than Fang Wei's, while agility was on par with him. As for spirit? Who could compare with him now?

"Lord, did you level up?" Fang Wei felt a change in Lin Feng's aura and inquired.

"Hmm, I just leveled up; don't worry, you all won't fall behind," Lin Feng replied with a nod.

After this he did not waste any time and led everyone further.

Once again they encountered the wild boars; this time their number was eight. However, the boars still couldn't handle the firepower of this many and were killed.

Lin Feng once again received experience points but since his level was higher, he only got ten percent; the remainder was distributed between everyone.

The mist world was playing once again, making leveling up harder.

He was furious but he couldn't do anything except curse a few times.

"Lord, there is no need to be unhappy. You know, after leveling up, normal subjects like us only receive five attribute points, five points less than you," Su Luli tried to comfort him.

Hearing her, Lin Feng felt a little better.

As a lord he could earn experience just by sitting; then, with the addition of extra attributes, he could certainly become a strongman.

This was really good.

Or too good to be true.

"Let's move and kill every monster you see."

Shaking his thoughts, Lin Feng commanded.

Now that he had leveled up, his confidence also rose slightly. Of course this didn't mean he became courageous and wanted to charge openly.

That would be a certain death.

He and everyone kept moving forward with the previous pace, making sure not to make too much noise.

They were also ready to take any surprise attacks from monsters.

However, one minute passed, and nothing happened. Two minutes went by; still no monsters showed up.

Suddenly Fang Wei's expression changed.

"Lord, we are surrounded."
