Chapter 117: Fisherman Fishes From the Sides V

[Lightning Wolf (Rare rank) (Boss) lvl. 10

Hp: 9/400

State: 

Bleeding: Loses 3 hp every second. 

Paralyzed: Unable to move. All status -50%. Senses -70%.

Description: Boss monster of Blue Wolf town.]

[Liam Mango (Tier 1) lvl. 25

Hp: 3/100

State: 

Bleeding: Loses 2 hp every 10 seconds. 

Paralysed: Unable to move. All status -50%. Senses -70%.] 

Looking at the status of those two, he quickly moved. 

'If the Lightning wolf has 9 hp left and every second, 3 hp is gone, it will die in exactly 3 seconds. During that time, I can't cast my spell meaning I won't be able to get the experience and rewards for killing. So I need to kill it by physical force. Either by stabbing or punching. 

But then if I'm in party with Liam, my exp will be shared depending on the contribution; seeing how I just delivered the final blow to the soon to die wolf, I wouldn't gain much, so I have to leave the party with Liam before killing the wolf. 

However, considering my attack strength, I'm sure it will only have 1 point damage at most. With the wolf's bleeding status, it will die with my attack not being the final blow. And since I can only attack once within the 3 seconds, I won't be able to kill the wolf. 

Sigh... I guess I won't be getting the experience of the boss.

But I could also settle for Liam's loots too. I'm sure it will be extravagant.' 

A rapid flash of thoughts passed through his mind as within a second, he reached the conclusion that he can't kill the Lightning Wolf even if it was defenseless.

"Dang it..." came the low murmuring of Liam as he tried standing up from the ground. 

And even though he was shaking all over, he managed to get up on his feet. 

'How did he get up' this question popped up in Cylius' mind. 

The paralyzed effect obviously said that the person subject to it won't be able to move at all. The person could only wait for death when in it. 

With the hp of Liam, he would've died in 20 seconds, with his paralyzed stat, he won't even be able to get a healing potion even if he had one. So Cylius wasn't much worried about him. 

But now, he had gotten up. Who really knows what kind of power he held. 

The important thing right now was gauging the strength of him and what capabilities he could reach. So with a flash of blue light in his eyes, he determined the strength of Liam. 

[Liam Mango (Tier 1) lvl. 25

Hp: 3/100

State: 

Paralysed (Ignored): Unable to move. All status -50%. Senses -70%.

Heavy Exhaustion: All status -100%] 

The bleeding state was gone and this paralyzed state was ignored, what happened? Did he use some sort of secret skill to do that? 

Thankfully, as he had acquired the skill - Eye of God, he was able to view the stats of Liam without any problem. 

[Eye of God (Unique skill)

Inspects any opponent below Tier 6. Able to inspect a terrain except certain special terrains. Uses no mana and stamina.] 

And he knew that Liam was very weak right now. He didn't know how Liam dispelled the debuffs and managed to stay alive but he knew that if he wanted to kill Liam, he could do it easily. 

All of his stats were currently at 1 point. 

He didn't intend on letting him survive at all. Who knows, he might get himself into some weird shit just like Anna whose situation wasn't known currently. 

"Hmm? Who's there!?" Liam looked towards Cylius who was also looking towards him. He seemed shocked as he took a few steps back and quickly got into explaining his situation and that Cylius should lend him some healing vials. 

But the strange thing was, it seemed that he didn't know who Cylius was. Maybe his vision had dulled making him unable to determine Cylius' identity. 

Then, slowly and secretively, he was just trying to use a healing potion when he saw a lump of red thing flying towards him. 

He didn't know what it was but it was definitely not something good. Therefore, he tried to dodge it only to fail and fall on the ground. He tried to get away once again but with the lump of fire already close to him, he failed to dodge. 

Immediately upon impact, he died. With his hp of 1, how much could he do anyways?

'Killing players could also get exp?' this surprised Cylius.

Fire Arrow lvl. 4

Talent: Inferior Mage Talent]

This was his current status right now. 

All of his stats has become better due to the lvl.5 bonus. 

So level 5 could be described as a some sort of special point that had various features. 

The first thing was the +1 point to all stats, the second was that every level up from then would have 2 free status/skill point instead of 1. The main status would also level up 2 times. Similarly, the exp needed for the player would also double in size. 

If before, the exp needed to level up had the rhythm of +10 experience from the previous level, with every level up, now, it was +20 experience. 

Therefore, he only leveled up 4 times instead of 5. 

However, the rewards he gained was much better.

Other than the main status, there will also be a second main. Since he was a mage, his second main was mana so it will level up with additional 2 points with every level up, showing why it was 41 instead of 35. 

'Soul legacy?'

But among the many notifications, one thing that caught his attention was the one about an item bonding with him.
