7: Chapter 7 Moving Clouds
Although the increase in his own attributes was not significant, fortunately, the range of his Poison Barrier had expanded considerably.
Moreover, thanks to his God-level Skill, the bonus from Source Poison had raised his overall damage to a truly exaggerated level.
However, Tang Mo knew this was because the level 1 monsters in the newbie dungeon generally had no poison resistance, which was why they were so easily poisoned to death.
If he were actually in the wild, he definitely wouldn't have been able to poison those fierce beasts to death so easily.
Firstly, fierce beasts had much stronger vitality than the monsters in this newbie dungeon, and secondly, their resistances in all aspects were much higher than those of the monsters in the dungeon.
However, with his God-level Skill in hand, Tang Mo believed that no matter how high the resistance was, it wouldn't be able to withstand his poison damage.
Tang Mo continued to move the Poison Barrier as he advanced deeper into the dungeon.
The dark green Poison Barrier was like a moving abyss, ruthlessly reaping the lives of the monsters along the way.
As Tang Mo ventured deeper, level 2 monsters began to appear.
However, when faced with the Poison Barrier, whose damage had increased by an unknown amount, they still couldn't last for even a single breath before dying within the poison.
Then, Source Poison began to devour their life source to continue increasing Tang Mo's poison damage.
It was as if he had fallen into an infinite loop.
Because the damage was too high, they died upon contact. Because of the death, the damage became even higher.
As a result, it had simply turned into a nightmare for the monsters.
Moreover, with the blessing of his God-level Skill, Tang Mo didn't need to worry about his Spirit value being insufficient at all.
All he needed to do was keep moving the Poison Barrier to every corner of the dungeon.
The pervasive nature of the poison also meant Tang Mo didn't have to worry about missing any monsters.
Tang Mo walked leisurely through the dungeon, as if entering an uninhabited realm.
【Killed Level 2 Dark Hidden Cat, EXP +20, Poison Damage +1】
【Killed Level 3 Red Tooth Pig, EXP +30, Poison Damage +1】
【Killed Level 4 Two-Headed Snake, EXP +40, Poison Damage +1】
...
Walking all the way, everything was killed instantly; Tang Mo didn't have to worry about being attacked by monsters at all.
Another thirty minutes passed, and Tang Mo's EXP bar was visibly about to be full again; he would probably level up after taking two more steps.
By this time, the Poison Barrier had turned into a rich, dark green, resembling a moving dark green cloud, looking extremely eerie.
"Chirp!"
Suddenly, a loud eagle cry came from high in the sky.
Tang Mo looked up and saw that at some point, many level 6 Iron-Beak Eagles had gathered above in the sky.
Since they were flying in the sky, the Poison Barrier naturally couldn't harm them.
Moreover, this seemed to be the territory of the Iron-Beak Eagles.
The moment Tang Mo stepped in, he attracted the attention of the Iron-Beak Eagles in the air.
They circled together, clearly treating Tang Mo as huntable food.
Subsequently, a group of Iron-Beak Eagles swooped down towards Tang Mo.
Facing the attack of the Iron-Beak Eagles, Tang Mo was not panicked at all.
The height that the Poison Barrier could cover was nearly one hundred meters; these Iron-Beak Eagles were just delivering themselves to him by swooping down.
However, just in case, Tang Mo still released Venomous Arrow to attack the Iron-Beak Eagles in the air.
The range of Venomous Arrow was about two or three hundred meters, which just happened to form the first wave of attacks against the Iron-Beak Eagles.
In the sky, Iron-Beak Eagles were constantly hit by Venomous Arrows, and their bodies were instantly corroded by the poison, creating a hole.
They didn't even have time to flap their wings before they fell straight down from the sky.
【Killed Level 6 Iron-Beak Eagle, EXP +60, Poison Damage +1】
【Killed Level 6 Iron-Beak Eagle, EXP +60, Poison Damage +1】
...
As the kill notifications kept popping up, a pillar of light erupted from Tang Mo's body; he had leveled up again.
All attributes increased by another 1 point, while Spirit and Stamina increased by two points as usual.
For Tang Mo, this slight increase in attributes was better than nothing.
What he cared about most was his skill level.
The levels of Poison Barrier and Venomous Arrow had both reached level 3.
The coverage of Poison Barrier expanded again, already reaching over thirty meters.
The range of Venomous Arrow also increased to nearly four hundred meters.
Tang Mo directly expanded the range of Poison Barrier again, and continued to shoot Venomous Arrows into the sky.
【Killed Level 6 Iron-Beak Eagle, EXP +60, Poison Damage +1】
【Killed Level 6 Iron-Beak Eagle, EXP +60, Poison Damage +1】
...
In the sky, the number of Iron-Beak Eagles, which had originally been densely packed, was rapidly decreasing.
The remaining Iron-Beak Eagles seemed to know Tang Mo's prowess, as they actually turned around and flew away one after another.
This made Tang Mo feel very depressed; he couldn't catch up, and his attacks couldn't reach them either, so he could only watch them fly away.
However, Tang Mo was already very satisfied.
In about an hour, he had leveled up twice in a row; this leveling speed was already terrifying.
Other students were probably still stuck in a bitter battle with the dungeon monsters at this time.
However, for others, the pressure of leveling up was not that great.
After all, in ordinary universities, one only needed to reach level 10 in a month to be admitted.
Judging by the EXP of the dungeon monsters, as long as one was willing to work hard, it was still hopeful to reach level ten in a month.
One had to know that others didn't have Tang Mo's fast killing speed.
For beginners, a level 1 monster would probably take a few minutes to deal with.
Moreover, as the EXP required for leveling up later increased, the speed of leveling up would become slower.
But for Tang Mo, it was exactly the opposite.
Because of the existence of the God-level Skill, Tang Mo's speed of killing monsters would only get faster and faster.
In this way, Tang Mo's leveling speed would not only not slow down, but rather had a trend of accelerating.
Especially when encountering gregarious monsters, the speed of improvement was even faster.
And at this time, outside the dungeon, the principals of several high schools were sitting together drinking tea and chatting.
"This year, the quality of these little kids has improved compared to previous years!"
"Oh? Old Gao says so, it seems your school has also produced some powerful classes?"
The principal known as Old Gao smiled and said: "It's nothing, just produced three rare-level classes. Still can't compare to First High! Principal Lin, you have really stolen the show with a Legendary-level class and a Hidden class!"
Lin Hanwen smiled and waved his hand, "Where, where, it's all the kids being capable themselves; I, as the principal, haven't done anything."
"Principal Lin is too modest. Principal Gao is also hiding his true strength! If it weren't for that Legendary-level class and Hidden class, I'm afraid your Fifth High would have taken all the limelight this year."
"That's right, Principal Gao is really good at hiding."
"Hahaha, no, no, I'm used to being low-key, I don't really like to show off."
Lin Hanwen understood that the other party was speaking with hidden meaning, chuckled inwardly at the old fox, and then directly retorted: "Rare-level classes are nothing to brag about anyway."
Everyone was silent; I'm afraid only you, Principal Lin, would dare to say that.
Someone saw that the atmosphere was not right, so they quickly pulled the topic back to the students in the dungeon.
