The Attacking Girl
“Black, are we… still going forward?” Vivian looked into the distance, into the depths of the forest where the vegetation grew denser and denser. The young girl subconsciously shrunk her neck.
The little beast in her arms let out a weak cry and pushed the girl with its little paws.
After being reminded by Liao Zixuan, the little girl realized that she had hugged Black very tightly because she was too nervous. She didn’t have much meat on her bones, especially on her chest, which was basically straight up and down…
“Oh… hug. Sorry, Black…” Vivian hurriedly apologized. Her tender face instantly flushed, not because she was shy but because she felt too embarrassed.
Just as the human and wolf were conversing, a muffled roar suddenly sounded from the ancient tree above the young woman.
Right after that, a gigantic black shadow more than half the height of a human lunged towards the unprepared Vivian on the ground at lightning speed!
It was a leopard monster with sharp teeth and claws. It had clearly been eyeing the young girl for a long time and had been waiting for the girl let down her guard to attack.
This was clearly the best opportunity for it!
Then…
Then there was no ‘then’.
Strangely, before its claws could touch the girl’s body, the leopard monster’s body spontaneously combusted and was swallowed by black flames in mid-air. When it landed on the ground, only an unrecognizable charred corpse remained.
As for Vivian, she was initially shocked by the black corpse that fell from the sky, but she quickly recovered. She even gradually became accustomed to it.
There was no other reason for this other than that this type of situation had happened too many times along the way.
This was part of Liao Zixuan’s plans.
Her other attributes aside, the little girl was at least definitely top-notch bait for attracting monsters.
On the way to the Boss’ nest in the depths of the forest, Liao Zixuan naturally couldn’t let the girl idle. After all, they might face a fierce battle later.
As they went deeper and deeper into the forest, they gradually left the novice zone and the level of the monsters around them also rose.
If it was just the Ordinary Mode forest monsters, they would be easy to deal with. No matter how high their levels were, they would still be useless. However, once they reached the Boss level and obtained a “specialization” in the Elite Mode, even Liao Zixuan would have to be cautious.
Therefore, it was Liao Zixuan’s priority to let Vivian gain the ability to protect herself so that she would not be a burden in battle.
This was actually not difficult. After all, Vivian was a legendary NPC that possessed the Player Mode; there was no level-up bottleneck to speak of. As long as she kept gaining EXP from killing monsters non-stop, she could easily level up.
This was not…
After killing the leopard monster, the girl obtained enough EXP to finally break through to level ten.
In “Fallen God”, there was a hurdle every ten levels. With the advancement and strengthening of her profession, Liao Zixuan could clearly see that Vivian’s interface was rapidly changing.
The most obvious was that the girl’s main Class had changed from Apprentice Summoner to Summoner Level 1.
Don’t underestimate the absence of the word “apprentice”. There were a lot of professional specializations that could only be obtained by an official Summoner.
Just like…
Telepathy—You and your summoned beast have a telepathic connection that is not restricted by language. You can transmit your thoughts to each other within a certain range.
“Hi?”
“How do you do?”
“Hello?”
“Can you hear me!!”
The voice that suddenly appeared in her mind startled Vivian; she almost threw Liao Zixuan out of her arms.
“Who… who’s talking?” The girl looked nervously to her left, then back again, and finally, after feeling a small paw tickling her continually, Vivian turned her gaze down.
“Black… was that you… were you talking to me?” The little girl’s eyes were filled with disbelief.
Liao Zixuan nodded with a helpless expression.
As the girl had just advanced, she was not proficient in Telepathy yet. They could only communicate with vague thoughts and not in complete sentences yet.
However, this was a hundred times better than the body language they had to use in the beginning.
After knowing that she could really communicate with Black, which was Liao Zixuan, Vivian was extremely excited. There was no wonder why—the little girl was alone in the forest and the thing she needed most was someone to rely on.
Besides, she had long wanted to talk to someone.
“Black… I… I feel that ever since we went deeper into the forest, my body has become… more and more strange!” The young woman bent down and gently placed Liao Zixuan on the ground before looking at her hands with a confused expression.
“I feel like… like something’s trying to gush out…”
Vivian muttered as she subconsciously raised a hand, perhaps out of instinct.
The girl might not have realized it—but Liao Zixuan who was extremely sensitive to magic power as a Dark Flame Wolf—had already noticed that the moment the little girl raised her hand, the magic power in the surrounding forest seemed to have gone crazy. It was as if there was a huge pump that started to crazily pour into the little girl’s thin body.
Immediately after, as if she had reached a critical juncture, a dazzling magic halo blossomed from Vivian’s palm. Before the little girl could react, it transformed into pure magic power energy that whizzed into the distance.
Boom!
Boom!!
A loud sound erupted in the forest.
A straight line extended out with Vivian as the starting point; the forest seemingly halved by this line. All the trees that the line had passed through were destroyed and collapsed, forming a range of vacuum.
Click.
The little girl was frightened by herself and sat on the ground in a daze. She had an expression that said,
“Who am I? Where am I? What have I done?”
On the other hand, Liao Zixuan who originally didn’t think much of it and felt that it wasn’t a big deal was shocked by this scene. He rubbed his eyes with his little wolf claws in a slightly comical manner.
Magic Missile was a common basic skill for all players that were under the larger umbrella profession of “Spellcaster”.
Technically, that was the case.
However, if the Spellcasters of the “Fallen God” world knew that the terrifying destruction a moment ago was performed subconsciously by a country girl from an unknown village who had just taken off her “apprentice” hat and had never interacted with any magic before…
They… would never believe it!
After all, if this was true, they would have completely disregarded their image, used all kinds of extensive magic to locate the target and rushed over to snatch her up.
Why?
She was a peerless genius! What kind of magic talent was this! It was terrifying!
But there was a very simple explanation for this. Liao Zixuan quickly realized that it was all thanks to him adding points in a “frenzy” to the girl’s attributes.
That was… all the attribute points obtained from leveling up were invested into the attribute that could affect one’s magic power, “Elemental Affinity”.
So even though Vivian was only level 10 now, her Elemental Affinity was already comparable to a level 20 Class Two Elementalist who specialized in magic.
In fact, it wasn’t that the players in his previous life hadn’t tried this method of adding points, but that it was far from having such a terrifying effect. After all, the players were just a bunch of data. They were controlled by the system, and their inflated values would be automatically diluted and controlled within a reasonable range.
However, Vivian was different. As a native of the game world, she was using her own physical body. In other words, the attribute points she gained would not be diluted at all and had completely become the girl’s power.
While the players used the additive method, the little girl directly used the multiplication method!
She was already so overpowered at Level 10. If she progresses any further, Level 20, Level 30…
At the thought of this, Liao Zixuan’s eyes burned. The Dark Flame Wolf turned into a big gray wolf and drooled at the little girl who was still in a daze.
Although he and Vivian were both considered to be “bugs” and his starting stats were countless times higher…
But what was that saying again? The real big shots never personally took part in the battles!
This was also the reason why Liao Zixuan had always been passionate about being a sparring partner.
He had long gotten tired of posturing personally. Liao Zixuan preferred to personally teach and nurture others into overpowered players and then watch them posture!
So…
Attack, girl!
The entire Flame Domain and Fire God in version 1.0 are awaiting your rescue!
While Liao Zixuan was still immersed in the excitement of witnessing the growth of the girl…
What he didn’t know was that there was another “enormous present” that would make him as pleased as punch rapidly approaching him because of the commotion created by Vivian…
